Анотація. Протипедикульозні засоби, які реалізуються в Україні, мають 100 % інсектицидну дію, овіцидна дія спостерігається лише при троєкратному застосуванні. Для лікування педикульозу доцільно застосовувати зареєстровані медичні препарати.

Abstract. Antipediculosis products sold in Ukraine have 100 % insecticidal effect, the ovicidal effect is observed only with three times application. For the treatment of pediculosis, it is advisable to use registered medical preparations.

Metabolic syndrome (MеtS) is a combination of clinical and laboratory abnormalities that increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Purpose - to detect and identify peculiarities of MetS and its criteria in children depending on gender.
MetS was estimated in 89 (5.9%) children from 1520 examined children: in 39 (2.6%) girls and 50 (3.3%) boys (p>0.05) aged from 9 to 18 years. Children were selected for examination of anthropometric data, blood pressure, total cholesterol, HDL-C, LDL-C, triglycerides, fasting glucose and insulin, index HOMA-IR, glucose/insulin ratio and QUICKI. Heart rate variability (HRV) study and echocardiography were done. Diagnosis of MetS was provided according to IDF Consensus (2007).
Abdominal obesity was diagnosed in all children with MetS. Boys had essentially more large body mass, height, body surface area, neck and waist circumferences, weight/height ratio than girls (p<0,001). Blood pressure in boys was higher than in girls, arterial hypertention in boys (72,0%) was diagnosed more often than in girls (46,2%). Insulin resistance was identified 1,5 falled more often in girls than in boys (p<0,05). Statistically significant difference in lipid metabolism in boys and girls was not estimated. According to HRV boys had higher activity of the autonomous nervous system than girls. Left ventricular (LV) myocardial mass and thickness of the LV posterior wall in boys were significantly larger than in girls that proved a higher risk of LV hypertrophy and concentric remodeling.
Attention to gender differences of MetS must be paid and gender-specific strategies for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes mellitus should be formulated.

Tumor formations of the tubes, hydrosalpinxes, pyosalpixes have a number of discrepancies in outpatient service examinations and intraoperative clinical diagnosis.
Purpose - to report a unique case with discrepancies between the preoperative diagnosis (pyosalpinx, hydrosalpinx) and the intraoperative and postoperative definitive findings (appendicular tumor, mucocele).
Clinical case. A 50-year-old woman, a 3-year-old Mirena IUD wearer, applied for examination for pain in the right iliac region and a slight rise in temperature to 37-37.5 over the past 10 days. The examination showed the movement of the tumor on the right up to 7-4 cm, sensitive on palpation, uterine fibroids, and appendices on the left without features. Other history, physical examination, and laboratory tests were not remarkable, and there was no leukocytosis as in inflammatory processes. Ultrasound and MRI showed neoplasms of the right appendages of 7-5-4 cm, avascular and uterine fibroids — 3 subserosal nodes of 10-5 mm each. Intraoperatively Intact 2 fallopian tubes were detected, a tumor formation of the appendix 3-2-3 cm without adhesions was isolated. Laparoscopic appendectomy was performed along with conservative myomectomy and bilateral salpingectomy. Histopathology showed mucocele without atypia, myomas nodules, and fallopian tubes without features.
Conclusions. In the formation of the right appendages of the uterus, a thorough preoperative diagnosis is required, which does not always give a definitive answer to the clinical diagnosis. Diagnostic laparoscopy, visual and operational clinical experience of the surgeon, cytological and histological examination of intra- and postoperative results make it possible to carry out adequate surgical treatment. Patients should be informed about doubts between outpatient and intraoperative diagnosis, possible changes in the intraoperative surgical plan. Prompt care should be provided in institutions with appropriate teams and equipment.
The research was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki Declaration. The informed consent of the patient was obtained for conducting the studies.

Introduction: The cervical screening goal is to detect and treat precancers before cancer. We wanted to understand why errors in the clinical diagnostic and management of patients with persistence of human papillomavirus (HPV); infection occur in gynecological practice.
Aim: Aim of the study was to evaluate 3 clinically important complications of situations for women aged 18-45 years. The study aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy by colposcopy visualization, cytology and biopsy results, and presence of HPV infection. We aimed to analyze the false-negative (FN) cytology diagnoses inpatients with presence of HPV, colposcopy visualization, histologically proven cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 2-3.
Material and Methods: A retrospective analysis of errors in the management of patients was carried out, in treatment methods, especially with the use of cryodestruction, colposcopy pictures, results of cytological and histological conclusion, results of examination for oncogenic types of papillomavirus were presented.
Discussion: After analyzing all errors in the management of patients with persistence of papillomavirus and preliminary cryotherapy of the cervix, the main reasons that led to the progression of the disease up to cervical cancer were noted.
Conclusion: In the presence of papillomavirus, cryodestruction of the cervix is not advisable, even if no cervical dysplasia was detected by histological conclusions

ABSTRACT
The aim: The aim of our study was to determine effect of whole body vibration on the bone tissue remodeling, determine the correlation between bone mineral density, markers of bone metabolism and level of vibration stimulus. 
Materials and methods: Four experimental groups Wistar rats were exposed to vertical whole body vibration during 28 days. Blood intake and QCT-scanning of the lumbar spine was performed on the 28th and 56th day of study. 
Results: The largest loss of trabecular bone was observed in experimental groups III (0.51g) and IV (1.15g), which was decreasing to 12% (p<0.05) and 14% (p<0.05), respectively, in comparison with the control group. After 56th day of the experiment, bone loss dynamics was the following: in the 1st
 group ≤ 10% (p <0.05), in the 2nd ≤ 12% (p <0.05), in the 3rd ≤ 17 % (p <0.05), and 4th  ≤ 22% (p <0.05) compared with the control group. Changes in the level of hydroxyproline in the first experimental group were not statistically significant (p>0.05), in the second group – increased by 19.3% compared with the control rates, in the third – by 65.3%, and in the fourth – the level doubled (p<0.05). Increase of free hydroxyproline indicates violations in the balance between destruction and compensatory acceleration of collagen biosynthesis, which gradually decreases up to the 56th  day. It has been determined that with the increase in vibration frequency, elevation of osteocalcin level in rats’ blood is observed. 
Conclusions: Acceleration 0.51g increases the rate of bone metabolism, causes collagen metabolism disorders, loss of bone mineral mass, which further leads to osteoporosis.
