[Use of a rating system in the assessment of 4th-year students' knowledge of obstetrics].

The rating system was used to check up students' knowledge in obstetrics at the fourth course of the therapeutic and prophylactic faculty. Comparison of the results of the rating system and the routine one evidence that introduction of the new system has essentially improved the attendance of practical studies by the students, and their mean marks were improved as well. Students' knowledge assessed by the rating system coincided with the assessment made during examinations, thus permitting the use of this system in future without resorting to traditional sessions of examinations.

[Immuno-morphologic detection of specific APO-B antigenic determinants in normal intima and atherosclerotic plaques in the human aorta].

Various apo-B antigenic determinants exposures in the normal aortic intima and atherosclerotic plaques were examined by immunofluorescence using 5 clones from monoclonal antibodies (BAb) to apo-B. As a rule, 4 clones were found to react with apo-B in the normal aortic intima, whereas the clone 12G10 failed to respond to it. All the 5 determinants of apo-B were exposed in the fibrous tissue of most atherosclerotic plaques. However, there were atherosclerotic plaques, in whose fibrous tissue only did 1 to 3 clones positively react with apo-B. The similar expression of apo-B antigenic determinants was observed in the atheronecrotic zone of fibrous plaques. Apo-B did not respond to apo-B MAb at all in some atherosclerotic plaques present in the zone of atheronecrosis. Whether it is possible to modify low-density lipoproteins just in the arterial wall, especially in atherosclerotic plaques and whether this process is significant in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis are discussed in the paper.

[Proliferative mucosal changes of the corpus and cervix uteri in women using intrauterine contraceptives].

The paper discusses the incidence and peculiarities of proliferative changes in cervical and uterine mucosa of women with a record of using polyethylene intrauterine contraceptives (Lipps' loop) under 12 years. Intrauterine contraception is not conducive to a rise in the frequency of either precancer or cancer of the uterine cervix; nor is it responsible for endometrial malignancies.
