to study the flow phenomena of influenza and ARVI in patients with arterial hypertension, as well as the effectiveness of antiviral therapy. ⋯ The use of the antiviral drug Kagocel as part of complex therapy for influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections has shown its effectiveness for different groups of patients, including hypertension, despite the fact that cardiovascular pathology, often combined with comorbid diseases, significantly worsens the course and outcome of ARVI.

Takotsubo Syndrome is a transient condition characterized by left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Although the prognosis is excellent in most cases, rare cases of serious complications can occur. We present a case of a 81-year - old woman with Takotsubo Syndrome complicated by ventricular septal rupture that was successfully closed with an occluder Occlutech with good immediate and long - term outcomes.

to perform the complex analysis of clinical, functional, hemodynamics profile in patients with inoperable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) compared to the idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) group at the time of diagnosis verification according to the Russian registry, and to evaluate the features of medical therapy and it's influence on prognosis in these patients. ⋯ It was revealed, that inoperable CTEPH patients were significantly older with severe functional and hemodynamics status at the time of diagnosis verification, although with higher level of 5-year survival compared to the IPAH patients according to the Russian registry.

The article discusses the features of the development and course of the atherosclerotic process in various vascular basins. Variability of factors such as local hemodynamics, differences in the structure of the arteries can influence the formation of atherosclerotic plaque and the progression of the atherosclerotic process. ⋯ It was shown that, against the background of combination therapy, patients with coronary heart disease or atherosclerotic peripheral artery disease showed a significant decrease in the incidence of events of the primary end point of efficacy: a reduced risk of stroke, cardiovascular mortality and myocardial infarction, and also a reduction in the risk of major lower amputations extremities and total mortality in patients with stable forms of atherosclerosis. The emergence of combination therapy can help to achieve both an improvement in the overall prognosis and the prognosis of limb preservation in patients with multifocal arterial lesion.

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.
