Observational Study
[Burden and management of severe asthma in Russia: results from international observational study].
To assess clinical and demographic characteristics of severe asthma (SA) patients and their management in Russian Federation. ⋯ Most SA patients had poor disease control with frequent exacerbations and high number of comorbidities. Blood eosinophils and IgE level measurements were not evaluated routinely which might be a barrier for appropriate phenotyping and treatment selection.

Рost-COVID-19 syndrome (PS) is one of the medical and social problem. According to WHO, 10-20% of COVID-19 patients suffer from PS. The use of medical gases - inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) and molecular hydrogen (iH2) - may influence on the mechanisms of development PC. ⋯ The results of the study demonstrate clinical efficacy iNO/iH2 on clinical indicators, parameters of oxidative stress and microcirculation in patients with PS.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted pressing challenges in biomedical research methodology. It has become obvious that the rapid and effective development of treatments for "new" viral infections is impossible without the coordination of interdisciplinary research and in-depth analysis of data obtained within the framework of the post-genomic paradigm. ⋯ The futility of the overly simplified approach, which considers only one "most important receptor protein", only one "key virus gene", etc., is shown. It is shown how post-genomic technologies will make it possible to find informative biomarkers of severe coronavirus infection, including those based on complex immune disorders associated with COVID-19.

Historical Article
[On the formation of Russian pulmonology: the development of the doctrine of lung diseases (first half of the 20th century)].
The articles on the history of Russian pulmonology presented in the historical, medical and therapeutic literature contain materials for this history, but their authors did not solve the problem of its consistent presentation, highlighting the stages of formation and founders. The authors of this study critically reviewed the literary and archival primary sources, for the first time proposed the identification of three stages in the development of Russian pulmonology and indicated eight of its founders at these stages. ⋯ This article is devoted to the 1st stage of the history of pulmonology - the formation of the doctrine of lung diseases. The second (development of pulmonology as an independent scientific direction in internal diseases) and the third (organizational design of pulmonology as a new independent clinical scientific and educational discipline and medical specialty, i.e. its institutionalization) stages will be discussed in the next articles.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the results of the global surveys among youth 13-15 years old on tobacco consumption, conducted in 2004, 2015, 2021 in Khabarovsk, Novosibirsk, Cheboksary, Moscow, Pskov and the Russian Federation. The dynamics and trends in consumption of tobacco, electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) and heated tobacco products (HTPs) are analyzed. ⋯ The adoption in 2013 of the Federal Law "On protecting the health of citizens from the effects of second hand tobacco smoke, the consequences of tobacco consumption or the consumption of nicotine-containing products" had a significant impact on tobacco use by adolescents and reduced the prevalence of tobacco consumption and passive smoking among them by 3 times.
