Pharmacogenetic testing after a simple DNA isolation method
P. Wijnen, O. Bekers, M. van Dieijen-Visser, M. Drent
Abstract. Several commercial DNA isolation kits are available for extracting genomic DNA from whole blood samples, but these procedures require certain consumption of hand and work time and are rather expensive. An alternative technique could be dried blood spot (DBS) sampling, with which DNA isolation is faster, cheaper and logistics are easier. We have developed a non-commercial DBS method and examined whether the quality and quantity of DNA, isolated from DBS and noninvasively obtained buccal swab (BS) samples, was satisfactory. DNA isolation from EDTA blood samples and blood spots on flter paper were compared after DNA isolation with a column method and two different DBS methods. BS samples were obtained by rubbing a sterile, dry cotton swab against the inside of the subject’s cheek. In addition, the quantity of the obtained DNA was measured and melting curve analyses of 5 cytochrome P450 and 3 ATP-binding cassette polymorphisms were performed with real-time PCR FRET assays to establish the quality of the obtained DNA from both the DBS and BS samples. In all cases the genotype results corresponded completely. Moreover, the derivative melting curves of the DNA samples obtained from the capillary blood and BS were comparable and highly reproducible. The mean DNA concentrations measured were 16,0 ng/μl (12,6—19,4 ng/μl) and 70,2 ng/μl (57,3—83,1 ng/μl), respectively, for DBS and BS samples (p<0,001). The DBS DNA isolation appears to be a useful alternative for the commercially available DNA isolation kits and an extremely useful method to discriminate between genotypes. This expands the possibilities of this quick and easy DNA isolation procedure. In particular, the noninvasive BS sampling method appeared to be a good alternative to invasive sampling methods.
Key words: dried blood spot and buсcal swab, sampling method DNA, genotype.

‘Drug’-induced pneumonitis associated with CYP and VKORC1 variants
P.A.H.M. Wijnen, O. Bekers, M. Drent
Abstract. The presence of CYP variant genotypes appears to be a substantial susceptibility risk factor in the development of drug-induced pulmonary adverse events. We hypothesized that in some patients these serious complications may be associated with the presence of variant alleles in combination with illicit drug use. We present two patients who developed a fu-like syndrome with diffuse interstitial infltrates after ‘drug’ abuse probably associated with the presence of cytochrome P450 (CYP) and vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKORC1) allelic variants. Both cases were heterozygote for VKORC1 and possessed CYP polymorphisms (CYP2C19 *1/*2 and CYP2C9 *1/*3, respectively). In the described cases an association between the presence of CYP and VKORC1 allelic variants and interstitial lung damage caused by cocaine use was highly likely. Moreover, it highlights the increasing importance of introducing genetic testing into the work-up of patients with suspected ‘drug’-induced toxicity.
Key words: genotype, genetic testing, drugs, toxic reaction.

Causes of lung hemorrhagy and hemoptysys in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis
M.M. Ilkovich, O.P. Baranova, A.A. Speranskaja, V.P. Zolotnickaja, V.E. Perlej
Abstract. The article deals with modern abilities of radiologic assessment (computed tomography-CT, high resolution computed tomography — HRCT, computed tomography with angiography, single photon emission computed tomography — SPECT) and fberoptic bronchoscopy of lung hemorrhage in 26 from 290 patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis, which were observed in Research Scientifc Institute of Pulmonology in last 5 years. The main causes of this severe complication were pulmonary embolism (15 patients, including trombosis «in situ» in 3 of them), rarely — atrophic bronchitis (n=3), traction bronchoectasis (n=2) and dry cavities (n=2). In single cases hemoptysis was observed in viral and bacterial infections in lung tissue (n=1), addition of tuberculosis (n=1) and lung cancer (n=1). The relapsing lung hemorrhage was observed in only one patient with pulmonary sarcoidosis of 4 stage complicated with micetome in fbrotic tissue.
Key words: pulmonary sarcoidosis, radiology, lung hemorrhagy and hemoptysis.

Abstract. The serum concentration of IFN-γ after 24-hours incubation with PPD/ESAT-6 was estimated in patients with sarcoidosis (67), tuberculosis (60) and non-specifc lung infammation (44). The mean concentration (picogram/ ml) after PPD-incubation was signifcantly higher in tuberculosis (302,1±32,6; 95%CI 236,9—367,4) in comparison with sarcoidosis (66,7±16,8; 95%CI 33,2—100,2). After ESAT-6-incubation IFN-γ concentration in sarcoidosis was the lowest (9,2±2,98; 95%CI 3,3—15,2), in comparison with tuberculosis (92,8±16,7; 95%CI 59,3—126,3) and non-specifc lung infammation (95,2±29,4; 95%CI 35,9—154,4). The IFN-γ concentration level 70 picogram/ml (both PPD- and ESAT-6-induced) provides the diagnostic accuracy for sarcoidosis and tuberculosis differentiation 77,9%, sensitivity — 76,1%, specifcity — 80%. Odds ratio for sarcoidosis in patients with IFN-γ concentration level less then 70 picogram/ml is 12,8 (95%CI 5,1—32,8).
Key words: sarcoidosis, tuberculosis, non-specifc infammatory lung diseases, γ-interferon.

Abstract. A simple retrospective study of epidemiology of sarcoidosis and the clinical examination of patients with sarcoidosis opportunities in pulmonology specialist service based on 227 case histories of patients with sarcoidosis treated in Omsk city Kabanov’s clinical hospital № 1. The incidence of sarcoidosis in the period from 2003 to 2010 increased 5-fold, from 4,08 to 18,9 per 100000 population. Women accounted for 73%, men 27%. The mean age 49,4±12,3 years. Stage I disease was noted in 10,6% of patients, II Stage — in 75,3%, III stage, in 9,3%, IV stage — in 4,8%. Relapse occurred in 15% of patients with 1—2 relapses occurring in 13,7% of patients and 3 or more recurrences in 1,3% of patients. Corticosteroids therapy was performed in all patients on individual schemes, taking into account the rate of regression of disease, also other methods of treatment were carried out in the complex. Thus, the morphological verifcation of diagnosis, clinical examination of patients with active sarcoidosis in pulmonology specialist service can streamline regimens to reduce the number of relapses.
Key words: sarcoidosis, corticosteroids, dispensary examination, epidemiology.

Abstract. Endothelium derived factors and neoangiogenesis (ET-1, VEGF) were evaluated in 96 patients with interstitial pulmonary diseases. Morphometry of infammation, fbrosis, angioneogenesis in lung tissue were performed. The comparisons between ET-1, VEGF levels and clinical course, HRCT scans, histology patterns showed correlations between endothelial dysfunction, HRCT fbrosis, honeycombing, morphological patterns of angiogenesis. All parameters correlated with activity and survival period of diseases. Elevation of ET-1 correlated with extrapulmonary localizations in sarcoidosis. Alterations in the endothelium derived factors and neoangiogenesis system may contribute to the pathogenesis of interstitial pulmonary diseases. The results of our study can be considered predictive of progressive course and complications in interstitial pulmonary diseases and organs involvments in sarcoidosis.
Key words: interstitial pulmonary diseases, sarcoidosis, endothelium derived factors, endothelin 1.

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Definitoin, diagnostics, treatment.
R.A. Galyavi
Abstract. For last decades the big urgency was got by a problem of disturbance of breath during a sleer. The most frequent implication of these disturbances — obstructive аpnea, registered in 5—10% of adult men [27]. Primary risk factors of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) — age, being a male and the family anamnesis. To the minor factors contributing to development of OSAS, adiposity, abusing alcohol, the smoking, a habitual snore, day drowsiness, small vital capacity of lungs concern. Accumulation of knowledge of the nature, character and mechanisms of OSAS at patients with various diseases, promoted working out of an effective method of OSAS treatment by means of creation of continuous positive pressure in respiratory tracts (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure — CPAP). However complexity of a problem and presence of various concomitant factors leave many questions concerning OSAS insuffciently studied.
Key words: obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, snore, CPAP-therapy, polysomnography.

The risk of sudden death and heart beats frequency
N.B. Amirov, E.V. Chоukhnin
Abstract. To defne the indicators most fully correlating with SDNN that is especially important, for forecasting of sudden cardial death in the conditions of absence of possibilities to carry out the analysis of HRV parametres, for example, absence of the program for estimation HRV. We had been surveyed 262 persons on the device of daily monitoring of an electrocardiogram «DNK» with the program of variability of a rhythm of heart. We revealed, that the indicator «minimum daily HR», measured during a night dream, authentically correlates with change of daily allowance SDNN (r=-0,74). That is, increase of minimum HR more than 64±9,2 a minute, corresponds to SDNN decrease (60 — 100), being, on literary data, the adverse factor of sudden death.
Key words: SDNN, minimum HR.

Abstract. From 01.01 till 31.12.2007 in the town of Novouralsk there was research on the effectiveness of urgent use of azithromycin and clarithromycin of slow freeing (n=79) within the frst hour of the initial visit to the doctor in comparison with amoxicillin (n=80) in the later period for home pneumonia (HP) patients in ambulatory terms. In the group of patients of HP (n=79) as compared with patients (n=80) there was more rapid permission of pneumonic infltration by 6%, less duration of treatment by 10%, less number of days of temporary disability by 7% and less number of the hospitalized patients by 79%. Death rate in the town in the second half of 2007, when the patients of HP were urgently given macrolides became less by 67% than death rate in a frst half-year. Thus, urgent starting therapy of HP by the prolonged forms of azithromycin and at the clarithromycin beginning of treatment within the frst hour at the initial visit to the doctor is more effective than amoxicillin, given in the later period.
Key words: home pneumonia, azithromycin, clarithromycin, early treatment (use), death-rate.

A.V. Mordik
Abstract. In order to assess specifc cellular immunity were examined 111 of children and teenagers suffering from tuberculosis. The results of specifc immunological reactions revealed that no matter what age and diseases genesis having expressed the proliferation in modifed reaction of blast transformation of lymphocytes within tuberculin stimulation. Additionally, after tuberculin stimulation determined the high level of γINF mainly with tuberculosis of primary genesis. It was found out that the defnition of sensitization to tuberculin in the reaction braking migration leucocytes indirectly may indicate a disadvantaged course of tuberculosis process, in connection with the activation of the humoral link of immunity. Thus, the results of the study of a specifc cellular immunity are an additional criterion for diagnosis of tuberculosis in children and adolescents, as well as the assessment of the current forecast of the disease.
Key words: children, teenagers, tuberculosis, specifc immunity, diagnostics.

Abstract. Purpose: assessment of NT-proBNP diagnostic importance in CHF patients of ischemic genesis. Methods: 69 CHF patients were included in the study. Inclusion criteria were CHF symptoms developed after Q-wave myocardial infarction and shown in ECG findings, and informed consent of the patients. NT-proBNP level was defined by enzyme immunoassay. Statistical processing of the data obtained was performed using software package STATISTICA 7,0. Results were considered statistically significant at p<0,05. Numerical data is presented in the form of Ме [10-90%] (mediana, 10-90 per cent). Results: NT-proBNP level in the study group was 120,0 [60; 470] pg/ml. Correlation analysis of NT-proBNP level and the studied clinical indices was carried out. Positive significant relation (р<0,05) was noted between NT-proBNP and the patients’ age (r=0,35), body mass index (BMI) (r=0,38), heart rate (HR) (r=0,50), CHF functional class (r=0,46), C-reactive protein (CRP) (r=0,55), left atrial end-systolic dimension (LAESD) (r=0,53), left ventricular end-systolic dimension (LVESD) (r=0,41), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) (r=0,40), left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV) (r=0,39), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) (r=0,38), systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) (r=0,62), left ventricular myocardial mass index (LVMMI) (r=0,58). Negative significant relation (р<0,05) was noted between NT-proBNP and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (r=-0,54). According to mediana level the patients were divided into two groups: group I enrolled patients with NT-proBNP ≤ 120, pg/ml (35 patients), group II enrolled patients with NT-proBNP>120,0 pg/ml (34 patients). Patients in group II were significantly older (р=0,04), had a history of old myocardial infarctions (р=0,01), longer period of CF manifestations (р=0,04), more increased HR (р=0,003), higher CRP level (р=0,005). In group II in comparison with the group I the patients had more unfavorable events (р=0,03), CHF progression (р=0,03), recurrent myocardial infarctions (р=0,02), lethal outcomes (р=0,01).
Key words: chronic heart failure, NT-proBNP, unfavorable events.
