RUDN University scientists described methods of combating diabetes and hepatitis C at a conference in the United States « Diabetes Global -2017»
The conference was attended by more than 100 participants from the United States, Russia, Egypt, Australia, India, Mexico, South Africa, Nepal. The main topics were dedicated to issues of diabetes and metabolic disorders, complications of diabetes, modern methods of prevention and treatment. Accordind to the opinions of our professors, particular attention should be paid to the topic of «Nursing Care», because in Russia it is not yet represented either in the educational or in the practical sector.
Professor Irina Alekseevna Kurnikova, published more than 30 articles in reputed journals, the author of 25 books and tutorials in Russian language, 10 inventions (patents), leading expert in the field of diagnostics, treatment, rehabilitation of diabetic and thyroid diseases,< the key speaker of the conference, presented the report «The role of autoimmune neuropathy in the formation and progression of arterial hypertension in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus». The publication of the full version of the report showed interest in two scientific journals - «Journal of Diabetes and Metabolism» and «Medical and Clinical Research». Also as chairman Irina Alekseevna Kurnikova, held one of the sessions.
Associate Professor Tarasova, in her turn, made a plenary report «Antiviral drug interferon in combination with metformin in the treatment of viral hepatitis C» with the HCV-1 genotype and insulin resistance».
International conferences on diabetes and endocrinology are held regularly in the US and Europe under the support of Program Diabetes Global. Russian specialists rarely take part in them, but after the conference in Charlotte, the RUDN University scientists received invitations to other European and American scientific forums.
Biologists from RUDN University working together with their colleagues from the Institute of Molecular Biology of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Flax studied the genes that determine the fatty acid composition in flaxseed oil and identified polymorphisms in six of them. The team also found out what gene variations could extend the shelf life of flaxseed oil. This data can be used to improve the genetic selection of new flax breeds. The results were published in the BMC Plant Biology journal.
RUDN physician Anna Borisova, in collaboration with colleagues from Italy, used effective searches and classified 123 articles on this research topic. A literature review was conducted by searching databases of medical and biological publications: PubMed, the U.S. National Library of Medicine, and Embase (Elsevier), a biomedical database.
About Tree Talkers and soil structures, proper environmental management for sustainable urban development — in an interview with Elvira Davletyarov, Director of the Agrarian and Technological Institute of RUDN University.
