The article is dedicated to the study of promising methods for determining the concentration of cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids for the detection of psoriasis. It demonstrates that when interacting with cholesterol and triglycerides, the cholesteric-nematic mixture alters its spectral characteristics, in particular, which leads to a wavelength shift in the direction of the long-wavelength region. It is also shown that the liquid crystal mixture can
ABSTRACT
Aim: The patterns of qualitative and quantitative changes in the microvascular network in the skin of adult male white rats under of nalbuphine administration.
Materials and Methods: The research employed methods such as vascular bed injection, skin section clearing, and microscopic imaging using an MBI-1 microscope.
Morphometric analysis of the microcirculation vessels was conducted, and statistical processing of the results was performed using specialized software.
Results: The nalbuphine significantly impacted the morphological state of the white rat’s skin after two weeks of administration, with the initial changes
occurring in the blood vessel plexuses. In the injected skin samples, both arterioles and capillaries were dilated, with the diameter of the subpapillary arteriolar
network significantly increasing to 28.62±1.07 μm (control – 22.24±0.73 μm), and the diameter of intrapapillary capillary loops expanding to 6.20±0.11
μm (control – 5.91±0.26 μm). Arterioles exhibited tortuosity. After four weeks, the loops of the vascular plexus lost their delicate, lace-like structure, with
microaneurysms in arterioles and sacculations in venules becoming evident. After six weeks of opioid exposure, significant structural alterations were observed
in the blood vessels of the skin. Capillaries became obliterated, with some destroyed, and this process was accompanied by hemorrhages. The density
of intrapapillary capillary loops decreased significantly to 59.0±2.0 (control – 79.60±2.078), while the trophic activity index increased to 39.490±1.307 μm
(control – 27.172±1.143 μm),
Conclusions: Morphometric analysis of the morphological state of the vascular plexuses in the skin clearly illustrates the relationship between quantitative
and qualitative changes in the structural organization of the microcirculation network under opioid exposure.

Psoriasis affects about2To of population In 30-40% of occurrences arthropathic
psoriasis (AP) is diagnosed and it leads to 11-19% of disability cases development. The article analyses features of
anamnesis, clinical, instrumental and laboratory tests related to arthropathic psoriasis, considers the relationship of
probable mechanisms of disease aggravation and progression with the definition of a treatment method
influencing the dynamics of a disease course.
The objective of our work was to improve the diagnostics of AP patients taking into account some indicators of
the inrmune-epdocrine system and features of the disease course to specify their role in AP pathogenests and to
develop the system of integrated therapy of patients whose locomotor system is affected due to psoriasis
Tlre possible role of viral persistence as an epigenetic factor in the development of
psoriasis is discussed when a specific antigen (virus, especially type 1,2 (HSV 1,2)) is considered as a trigger factor
for direct or indirect action on immunocompetent cells.
The purposeTo evaluate the peculiarities of blood lyrnphocytes phenotyping in patients with psoriasis and
activated chronic Herpes slmplex virus infection compared to patients with psoriasis, activated chronic Herpes
virus infection, and healthy persons during treatment
The relevance of the problem of urticaria is generally recognized. The chronic infection foci, gastrointestinal diseases, diabetes mellitus, malignant neoplasms, etc. are among the factors that initiate the manifestation of the disease. However, the studies devoted to evaluation of the endocrine glands in such patients remain unaddressed. Although it is known that, in particular, the thyroid gland takes an active part in the development of allergic dermatoses. Objective: To study the thyroid hormone balance in patients with chronic idiopathic urticaria.
