One of the most outstanding scientific achievements in the thrombolysis is the development and administration of fibrinolysin - the first Soviet drug that lyses blood clots. Intracoronary administration of fibrinolysin reduced the mortality of patients with myocardial infarction by almost 20%. For his work in this field Yevgeny Chazov was awarded the Lenin Prize in 1982. ⋯ The article is dedicated to the 90th anniversary of academician E. I. Chazov.

To evaluate efficacy and safety of reduced dose of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) as part of triple antithrombotic therapy in AF patients, undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and to identify factors, associated with this strategy. ⋯ The administration of a reduced DOACs dose as a part of TAT in patients with AF, who underwent PCI, was associated with significant increase in the incidence of all thrombotic events, compared to patients, who received full dose of anticoagulants. The number of hemorrhagic complications was comparable.

We aimed to assess autoantibodies to M2-cholinoceptors (M2-CR) in patients with paroxysmal lone atrial fibrillation (AF) and in patients with AF and arterial hypertension (AH). ⋯ Autoantibodies to M2-CR were found in 45% patients with lone AF and in 35% patients with AF and AH. In patients with lone AF prevalence of increased IgG to M2-CR were greater than in patients with AF and AH (32% vs 20%; p.

to study the correlation of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) with metabolic parameters, 24-hours profile of blood pressure (BP) and left ventricular remodeling, with the volume of intraabdominal adipose tissue (IAAT), measured by multislice computed tomography (MSCT) in patients with abdominal obesity and metabolic syndrome. ⋯ A positive correlation was found between the volume of EAT with the level of insulin in the blood (r=0.2937, p.

It is known that micro RNAs are an important regulatory element in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including cardiovascular diseases. Different levels of expression of these molecules in various pathologies makes miRNA a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker.
