Khodjimatov a.hamdamov@tma.uzRano B. Azizova a.hamdamov@tma.uz<p>Epilepsy remains a significant issue not only in neurology but also in medicine as a whole. The prevalence of epilepsy continues to rise among children and adults worldwide. According to the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE), epilepsy is a brain disorder characterized by a persistent predisposition to epileptic seizures, leading to neurobiological, cognitive, psychological, and social consequences. This study aims to assess the quality of life and cognitive functions in patients with status epilepticus. A prospective, comparative, and controlled study was conducted at Andijan State Medical Institute. The study included 77 patients, divided into three groups: the main group (33 patients with status epilepticus), a comparison group (20 patients with epilepsy), and a control group (24 patients without epilepsy). The cognitive function assessment was performed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scale and a five-point rating system. The results showed that patients with status epilepticus had a higher prevalence of cognitive impairment, including mild dementia. Quality of life was also lower in these patients compared to the control and comparison groups. The findings emphasize the importance of comprehensive cognitive and quality-of-life assessments in managing epilepsy patients.</p>2025-04-21T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 https://journals.tma.uz/index.php/cajm/article/view/1071INTESTINAL DYSFUNCTION IN RESPIRATORY INFECTION IN CHILDREN WHO ARE FREQUENTLY AND OCCASIONALLY ILL2025-04-21T11:54:55+00:00Khiromon N.

Ergashov enodir21@gmail.comDinora A. Parpibaeva d.a.parpibaeva@gmail.com<p>Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a multifactorial disorder characterized by hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis, with a growing body of evidence highlighting the critical roles of gut microbiota and microRNAs (miRNAs) in its pathogenesis. The gut-liver axis serves as a key regulatory network, where microbiota-derived metabolites, including short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), bile acids, and lipopolysaccharides (LPS), influence hepatic lipid metabolism and immune responses. Concurrently, miRNAs regulate gene expression in the liver and intestines, modulating lipid homeostasis, inflammation, and fibrosis. Notably, miR-122, miR-34a, and miR-21 play significant roles in disease progression. Recent studies suggest a bidirectional relationship between microbiota and miRNAs, where microbial metabolites alter miRNA expression, and host-derived miRNAs shape microbiota composition and gut-liver signaling. Dysbiosis-induced changes in miRNA profiles contribute to increased intestinal permeability, endotoxemia, and chronic hepatic inflammation, exacerbating NAFLD progression. Understanding these intricate molecular interactions is essential for elucidating NAFLD pathophysiology. This review explores the complex interplay between gut microbiota and miRNAs in NAFLD, providing insights into the mechanisms underlying disease development and progression. A deeper understanding of these relationships may enhance our comprehension of NAFLD as a systemic disorder involving the gut-liver axis.</p>2025-04-21T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 https://journals.tma.uz/index.php/cajm/article/view/1075HYGIENIC ANALYSIS OF WINTER NUTRITIONAL STATUS IN PATIENTS WITH TOXIC HEPATITIS2025-04-21T12:51:38+00:00Nizom Ermatov a.hamdamov@tma.uzNurillo Mamasadikov a.hamdamov@tma.uzIrina Ulugnazarova a.hamdamov@tma.uz<p>Toxic hepatitis, characterized by liver damage due to exposure to hepatotoxic substances, poses significant challenges to patients’ nutritional status, particularly during winter. Seasonal factors, such as reduced sunlight exposure, limited availability of fresh produce, and decreased physical activity, exacerbate nutritional deficiencies that can impair liver function and overall health. This study aimed to analyze the winter nutritional status of patients with toxic hepatitis, evaluating dietary intake, anthropometric parameters, and biochemical markers. Findings revealed widespread deficiencies in energy, protein, and micronutrients, including vitamin D, vitamin C, and zinc. 80 patients diagnosed with toxic hepatitis, aged 30–60 years, receiving outpatient or inpatient care during the winter season. The 40% of patients consumed less than 75% of their daily energy requirements. The average daily caloric intake was 1,480 ± 320 kcal, significantly lower than the recommended 2,000–2,200 kcal for adults with liver disease. Mean protein intake was 0.6 ± 0.2 g/kg/day, below the recommended 1.0–1.5 g/kg/day for liver regeneration. 55% of patients reported limited access to protein-rich foods such as eggs, fish, and legumes.</p> <p>Confirmed diagnosis of toxic hepatitis, willingness to participate, and ability to provide informed consent. Presence of comorbid conditions affecting nutritional status (e.g., advanced kidney disease, malignancies, or severe metabolic disorders). Anthropometric assessments showed significant undernutrition in a substantial proportion of patients, while biochemical markers indicated compromised liver and nutritional health. The results highlight the need for tailored seasonal interventions, including dietary diversification, supplementation, and lifestyle modifications, to improve the nutritional and health outcomes of patients with toxic hepatitis during winter. These findings underscore the importance of integrating nutrition-focused care into hepatology practice.</p>2025-04-21T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 https://journals.tma.uz/index.php/cajm/article/view/1076THE MORPHOLOGICAL AND MORPHOMETRIC STATE OF THE LIVER'S VASCULAR-TISSUE STRUCTURES IN THE OFFSPRING OF INTACT EXPERIMENTAL RATS DURING POSTNATAL ONTOGENY DYNAMICS (experimental study)2025-04-21T13:27:39+00:00Maloxat B.

By its nature it is a glycoprotein marker, which makes it possible to assess the morphofunctional state by staining the vesicles of neuromuscular synapses in the muscle layer. The high sensitivity of this marker in very low titers demonstrates all the symptoms of APUD cells masking vesicles in neuromuscular synapses. This makes it possible to plan treatment based on important criteria for determining the treatment tactics for various types of esophageal atresia.</p>2025-04-21T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 https://journals.tma.uz/index.php/cajm/article/view/1078MORPHOLOGY AND MORPHOMETRIC FEATURES OF THE LARGE INTESTINE IN THE OFFSPING BORN FROM MOTHERS WITH DIABETES MELLITUS (EXPERIMENTAL STUDY)2025-04-21T14:57:38+00:00Ernazar Kalmurzaev ernazar_2018@bk.ruDilorom Adilbekova dilorom.adilbekova65@gmail.com<p>The experiment was conducted on 30 female laboratory rats, divided into two groups: control (n=15) and experimental (n=15). In the experimental group animals, diabetes mellitus was modeled by intravenous administration of alloxan in citrate buffer once intraperitoneally at a rate of 11 mg/100 g of weight. Hyperglycemia (>15 mmol/l) was confirmed using a glucometer. After confirmation of diabetes, the females were mated with healthy males. The colon was fixed in 10% formalin solution, histologically processed and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Morphometric analysis included measuring the thickness of the mucous, submucous and muscular layers, the height of the crypts, and counting the number of goblet cells. The results of the study showed that the offspring born to mothers with diabetes have significant changes in the structure of the colon. The thickness of the mucous layer was reduced by 18% (p<0.05), the muscular layer — by 12% (p<0.05) compared to the control group. The height of the crypts decreased by 15% (p<0.05), indicating a violation of the epithelial regeneration processes. The number of goblet cells in the mucous membrane was significantly less (by 22%, p<0.01), which may indicate a decrease in the secretory function. Histological analysis revealed signs of disorganization of the epithelial layer, an increase in the intercellular space and a decrease in the density of cellular elements. Discussion of the results suggests that the identified changes are associated with the negative effect of hyperglycemia on the processes of proliferation and differentiation of cells during intrauterine development. A decrease in the thickness of the colon wall layers and a decrease in the number of goblet cells may be due to a violation of the synthesis of proteins and lipids, as well as a change in the expression of genes regulating histogenesis. These morphological changes may underlie functional disorders such as decreased absorption capacity, impaired motility, and increased risk of developing inflammatory processes in the colon.</p>2025-04-21T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 https://journals.tma.uz/index.php/cajm/article/view/1079THE MORPHOLOGICAL AND MORPHOMETRICAL STATE OF THE LIVER IN OFFSPRING BORN TO MOTHERS WITH CHRONIC TOXIC HEPATITIS UNDER CONDITIONS OF MEDICATION CORRECTION BEFORE PREGNANCY (experimental study)2025-04-21T15:06:36+00:00Maloxat B.

Rustamovafarangizrustamova990@gmail.com<p>Chronic toxic hepatitis in mothers, when corrected with medication during the pre-pregnancy period, has a positive impact on the morphofunctional state of the liver in both the mother and her offspring. This leads to a reduction in inflammatory-reactive and dystrophic processes, and under conditions of recovery and regeneration, the zones of liver parenchyma damage in both the mother and offspring are significantly reduced. As a result, this contributes to the early elimination of pathomorphological changes in the vascular-tissue structures of the liver in both the mother and offspring. Preventing morphofunctional disorders in the liver of mothers and their offspring, predicting diseases in children born to mothers with liver pathologies, and developing effective methods for early diagnosis and treatment can enhance the resistance of the offspring to various harmful external and internal environmental factors.</p>2025-04-21T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 https://journals.tma.uz/index.php/cajm/article/view/1080ANALYSIS OF HEMOGLOBIN LEVELS USING IMAGE-BASED METRICS: A MULTIVARIATE APPROACH2025-04-21T15:32:39+00:00Guzal A.

Olimboeva sahzodaolimbaeva@gmail.com<p>Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are a major health problem for the entire global community. In the world, they develop annually in 2-2.2 million people, and the length of hospital stay as a result of their development increases by an average of 5-9 days. Layering on top of the underlying disease and increasing its duration, nosocomial infections give rise to new problems - postoperative mortality. They are a common cause of neonatal mortality, affecting child mortality in general. The number of nosocomial infections according to various studies amounted to 10-70% of the number of hospitalized people and in 2% of cases the disease ended in death. The epidemic spread of nosocomial infections is facilitated by the formation and widespread distribution of strains multiresistant to modern antimicrobial drugs, characterized by high virulence and increased resistance to environmental factors, including disinfectants. As a result of the occurrence of nosocomial infections, the cost of antibacterial drugs accounts for a third of all drugs sold.</p>2025-04-23T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 https://journals.tma.uz/index.php/cajm/article/view/1095MORPHOLOGY AND MORPHOMETRIC FEATURES OF THE SMALL INTESTINE IN WHITE LABORATORY RATS DURING POSTNATAL ONTOGENESIS2025-04-23T09:41:16+00:00Allambergen Rasbergenov rasbergenovallambergen@gmail.comDilorom Adilbekovadilorom.adilbekova65@gmail.com<p>This study investigates the morphological and morphometric characteristics of the small intestine in white laboratory rats during postnatal ontogenesis, focusing on developmental changes from birth to adulthood. The small intestine, a critical organ for nutrient digestion and absorption, undergoes significant structural and functional transformations as the organism matures. Using histological and morphometric techniques, we examined the dynamics of changes in the mucosal layer, villi height, crypt depth, and muscular layer thickness in rats aged 1 to 90 days. The results revealed that the most pronounced changes occur during the first 30 days of life, characterized by rapid growth and differentiation of intestinal tissues. By the 60th day, the morphometric parameters stabilized, indicating the completion of major developmental processes. Histological analysis demonstrated an increase in villi height and crypt depth, reflecting enhanced absorptive and secretory capacities of the small intestine. These findings provide insights into the adaptive mechanisms of the small intestine during postnatal development and contribute to a deeper understanding of the organ's functional maturation. The study underscores the importance of the early postnatal period in shaping the structural and functional integrity of the small intestine, with implications for comparative anatomy and developmental biology.</p>2025-04-23T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 Central Asian Journal of Medicinehttps://journals.tma.uz/index.php/cajm/article/view/1096ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE AND PATHOGEN SHIFTS IN VAGINAL MICROBIOTA: A RETROSPECTIVE STUDY ON IMPLICATIONS FOR SUTURE SOAKING IN SURGICAL SITE INFECTION PREVENTION2025-04-23T10:22:01+00:00Asal I. Buribaeva asaljon1710@gmail.comZulfiya I.

Yigitaliyev ayigitaliyev6622@gmail.com<p>In this study, the levels of expression of immunohistochemical markers Ki-67 and p53 in various morphological variants of nephroblastoma (Wilms tumor) in children were studied. The study was conducted in 2020-2024 with the participation of 60 patients with nephroblastoma who were treated in specialized medical institutions of the city of Tashkent. Of these, 20 had epithelial, 20 had mesenchymal, and 20 had mixed forms of nephroblastoma. The Ki-67 marker was evaluated as a protein controlling the proliferative activity of tumor cells, and p53 as a protein controlling the processes of damage and apoptosis in the genome. According to the obtained results, a high degree of positive reactions prevailed in all variants. In particular, in the epithelial type, high expression was observed in 60% of cases for Ki-67 and in 40% of cases for p53. High proliferative and genetic activity was also noted in mesenchymal and mixed species. These indicators confirm the significance of immunohistochemical markers in assessing the aggressive course and prognosis of nephroblastoma.</p>2025-04-23T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 https://journals.tma.uz/index.php/cajm/article/view/1101METHODS OF DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT IN PATIENTS WITH MAXILLARY SINUS CYSTS2025-04-23T15:32:55+00:00Jamolbek A.
