To systematize data on the prevalence of the combination of functional dyspepsia (FD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) using the Rome IIIIV Criteria. ⋯ This meta-analysis demonstrated that the prevalence of the combination of FD and IBS identified using the Rome IIIIV Criteria is high and is reported in approximately 1 in 3 patients with the functional gastrointestinal disorders concerned. The prevalence of a combination of FD and IBS identified using the Rome IV Criteria is at least 10% higher than that using the Rome III Criteria.

Cardiogenic shock (CS) is one of the main causes of death in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Mortality from CS remains high, despite the introduction of myocardial revascularization and the use of modern medication. The use of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) is promising, it could reduce mortality in patients with AMI and CS.

А clinical case of a young patient with recurrent ischemic strokes is presented. The problems of diagnostic embolic strokes are discussed. We set out the algorithm for identifying patients, in whom patent foramen ovale is the most probable cause of embolic stroke. ⋯ Hypothesis of probable source of cardioembolism from patent foramen ovale is presented. Recommendations for the secondary prevention of recurrent ischemic stroke, associated with patent foramen ovale, are provided. We also considered the issues of antithrombotic treatment.

To explore the features of vectorcardiograms (VCG) of patients with essential hypertension complicated by chronic heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (CHFrLVEF). ⋯ AF, LBBB, increased module of the maximum QRS vector and sQRS-Ta, and decreased P/S index are present in hypertensive patients with CHFrLVEF as compared with patients without CHF.

[Remote electrocardiogram telemonitoring after endovascular interventions on the coronary arteries].
To evaluate the effectiveness of a new system for telemetric electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring in patients after endovascular interventions (EI) on the coronary arteries (CA). ⋯ Carrying out telemetric ECG-monitoring after EI on the CA improves the quality of observation after the procedure, promotes early discharge of patients, makes the intervention more comfortable and safe. The introduction of this technique into clinical practice will make it possible to more widely use the outpatient approach when carrying out EI, and to increase the turnover of specialized beds and the efficiency of the work of medical institutions.
