THE ROLE OF ENDOCRINOLOGICAL FACTORS IN IDIOPATHIC MALE INFERTILITY
Abstract: Hormonal imbalance plays an important role in the etiology of idiopathic male infertility. The purpose of the study is to study the concentration of certain hormones (follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), testosterone and prolactin) in the blood serum of individuals with idiopathic male infertility. For this purpose, blood and sperm samples from 101 people aged 20-46 years with idiopathic male infertility were analyzed. During the research study, the concentration of FSH in the blood of men with asthenozoospermia was increased by 57.7%, in men with oligozoospermia by 2.4 times, in men with non-obstructive azoospermia by 8.8 times, in men with obstructive azoospermia by 2.1 times compared with control. There was observed an increase in LH concentration by 39.3% in men with oligozoospermia and by 2.9 times in men with non-obstructive azoospermia. Prolactin concentration was significantly increased by 89.0% in men with non-obstructive azoospermia. Although testosterone concentrations did not change significantly in the study groups, there was a downward trend in men with non-obstructive azoospermia. A significant increase in the concentration of FSH (4.2 times) and LH (2.2 times) was determined in men with non-obstructive azoospermia compared to men with obstructive azoospermia. Thus, in idiopathic male infertility, a serious hormonal imbalance has been identified, this imbalance was more pronounced in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia.

RELATIONSHIP OF SOME HEMOSTASIS PARAMETERS WITH EXTERNAL RESPIRATORY FUNCTION IN CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE
Abstract: The article studied the relationship of some indicators of hemostasis with the external respiratory function (ERF) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and the effect of prescribing anticoagulants and antiaggregants along with basic therapy on the clinical and functional course of the illness on clinical, laboratory and functional materials of 132 patients. No significant correlation was found between FEV1 and platelet count, thrombocytocrit, blood clotting, prothrombin index, and fibrinogen (0˂r˂0,2). There was a significant (p<0.05) weak negative correlation between the FEV1 index and the number of red blood cells, hemoglobin, and hematocrit (-0,304˂r˂-0,173). The use of anticoagulants and antiaggregants does not significantly affect the parameters of ERF, but contributes to a decrease in hospitalization days of patients with COPD (p<0.05).

DEPENDENCE OF INTRACRANIAL NON-TRAUMATIC HEMORRHAGES ON MATERNAL AGE AND NEWBORN BODY WEIGHT
Abstract: The aim. To assess the dependence of the risk of intracranial non-traumatic hemorrhages on the age of the mother and the body weight of the newborn. Materials and methods of research. A prospective study was conducted at the Republican Perinatal Center, a comprehensive neurological examination and neurosonography was carried out on all newborns (996). The studied population was divided into groups: children with and without intracranial non-traumatic hemorrhages, as well as those who died in the perinatal period due to this pathology. These groups were compared according to the structure of maternal age, serial numbers of births, gestational age, body weight, sex of newborns and methods of delivery. Subgroups by maternal age were distributed according to the body weight of newborns and the frequency in these subgroups was determined. To level the role of fetal weight, standardization was carried out. Standardized rates of nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage were compared in each maternal age group. Results. The actual and standardized incidence of intracranial non-traumatic hemorrhage was 11.7 and 16.6% at the age of 20 years, 12.1 and 14.7% at the age of 20-24 years, 14.5 and 14.6% at the age of 25-29 years, 13.2 and 12.9% at the age of 30-34 years, 32.1 and 24.8% at the age of 35 years and older. Conclusions. Maternal age under 20 years, 35 years and older is an independent risk factor for intracranial non-traumatic hemorrhages in newborns.

THE EFFECT OF LONG-TERM PSYCHOGENICS ON THE DYNAMICS OF INPATIENT TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH SCHIZOPHRENIA
Abstract: The article is devoted to the study of the impact of protracted psychogenic factors on the dynamics of inpatient treatment of patients with schizophrenia. This issue is important for understanding the relationship between endogenous and exogenous factors in the development and treatment of the schizophrenic process, which has long been a key issue in psychiatry. The study material was 82 patients suffering from schizophrenia, who were refugees and internally displaced persons from their places of permanent residence, abandoned by them as a result of the Karabakh conflict, which in this context is still a unique psychopathogenic situation. A generalized assessment of the dynamics of inpatient treatment of patients with schizophrenia of the main group (refugees and internally displaced persons) gives reason to believe that it is determined not only by the clinical and dynamic features of the schizophrenic process, but also by other factors, both psychogenically determined and environmental, family and others that require further clarification.

THE OUTCOMES OF THE TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH DIVERTICULAR BLEEDING
Abstract: The outcomes of the treatment of 13 patients with diverticular bleeding were analyzed. Due to inflammation around diverticula the endoscopic hemostasis hasn’t given sufficient effect. The recurrence bleeding rate was 38,5% after first, and 40% after second attempt. 1 patient died after emergency surgery, due to 3rd recurrence of bleeding. Inflammation and anticoagulant drugs were evaluated as risk factors for recurrence bleeding. However, overweight and chronic kidney diseases were the risk factors, which has a negative impact to the outcomes of the treatment.

STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF VERAPAMIL, NIFEDIPINE AND DILTIAZEM ON ESTRADIOL CONCENTRATIONS IN BLOOD PLASMA
Abstract: In presented article the effect of long-term intake of calcium antagonists on the concentration of estradiol in the blood was studied. The studies were carried out on 82 female white rats, grown in laboratory conditions, weighing 180-230 grams, which have reached puberty at the Scientific Research Center of the Azerbaijan Medical University. Verapamil 5, 25 mg/kg (Isoptin, Abbot Laboratories S.A., Italy), nifedipine 5, 10 mg/kg (Farmadipin, Farmak Ukraine), diltiazem 5, 20 mg/kg (Diltizem-L, MNIS-Istanbul) were used in the research. The concentration of estradiol in blood plasma was determined by enzyme immunoassay using the BioScreen MS-500 device. Blood was taken from the hearts of experimental animals under ether anesthesia. To determine the concentration of the hormone estradiol in the blood, a set of reagents "Eliza Kit Estradiol" was used. Estradiol levels were 3.9% lower and 40.4% higher with verapamil (5 mg/kg) compared with control females in females receiving long-term treatment with nifedipine at a dose of 5 mg/kg. With long-term use of diltiazem at a dose of 5 mg/kg, the concentration of estradiol differed by 3.3% (p>0.05). With a corresponding increase in doses, nifedipine 10 mg/kg (65.0±2.4) > diltiazem 20 mg/kg (39.3±0.7) > verapamil 25 mg/kg (34.3±0.7) increased the concentration estradiol.

POLYMORPHISMS OF INTEGRIN AND FIBRINOGEN GENES IN DIFFERENT PHENOTYPES OF ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION
Abstract: Introduction. Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death and disability in most countries, including Azerbaijan. Genetic factors play an important role in susceptibility to coronary heart disease, and up to 40-60% of cases may be due to heredity. Materials and methods. A total of 100 patients were examined, of which 76 had hypertension, 24 formed the control group. The examination of patients included the collection of anamnesis, anthropometric indicators, instrumental, laboratory and genetic studies. The genes of integrins B3 and A2, as well as fibrinogen, were determined by the MassARRAY method. Research results. Gene polymorphisms such as ITGA2 and ITGB3 are associated with an increased risk of thrombotic diseases. Additionally, polymorphisms in the ITGB3 gene, which encodes GPIIIa, are associated with changes in the shape of the beta-3 subunit and increased fibrinogen binding. Different genotypes of the ITGA2, ITGB3 and FGB genes are associated with various aspects of cardiovascular pathology, including dyslipidemia, left ventricular septal hypertrophy and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction.

COQNITIVE AND ASTHENIC IMPAIRMENTS AFTER COVID-19
Abstract: COVID-19 infection often causes a number of persistent neurological complications, the most common of which are cognitive and asthenic symptoms. The article provides information about the frequency and clinical characteristics of these symptoms after the infection with COVID-19, the dependence of their manifestation on the severity of the disease, its clinical significance and the impact on the patient's lifestyle. Mechanisms of development of cognitive and asthenic symptoms during COVID-19 infection are discussed. Including the direct effect of the causative virus on the brain substance, the role of immune-metabolic disorders caused by coronavirus, cerebral hypoxia and cerebrovascular diseases are investigated. The effect of antiplatelet therapy prescribed to prevent recurrent ischemic events in patients with cardiovascular diseases on the course and neurological complications of COVID-19 is analyzed. The role of these factors, including cerebral hypoxia, social isolation of quarantine-related patients, and decompensation of accompanying diseases in the emergence of asthenic symptoms and cognitive disorders is analyzed. The article also deals with prevention and treatment of neurological complications of coronavirus infection. At the same time, a clinical observation of persistent and severe cognitive impairment in a patient with a moderately severe form of COVID-19 infection is presented.
