According to domestic and foreign literature, a large number of unsatisfactory results (up to 40%) in the treatment of patients with intra-articular fractures of the distal metaepiphysis of the tibia are associated with massive destruction of the articular surface of the ankle joint. This leads to repeated surgical interventions aimed at correcting the orthopedic consequences of the trauma.

Currently, there is no clear algorithm for preoperative planning and operative technique. This is due to errors made during preoperative planning and surgical treatment.

For modern medicine, the problem of reducing the labor activity of patients with CRF and leading to disability in 26% of cases is very important.

During the period 2020-2024, 32 injured with injuries to the ankle joint of I-III-degree severity were treated.

Conservative treatment methods were used in 25 patients (78%), and osteosynthesis was performed in 7 patients. Of these, 4 (12,5%) patients underwent transarticular fixation with Kirschner spokes, and 3 (9,5%) were fixed with a tightening bolt.

Long-term treatment outcomes within 2-4 years were studied in 32 (100%) patients. After conservative treatment, good results were noted in 22 (68,7%) patients, satisfactory in 8 (25%), and unsatisfactory in 2 (6,3%).

The article presents a review and analytical study of the use of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as an additional method of treating autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in children, using the example of practice in the Republic of Karakalpakstan. The author, psychiatrist Umida Yusupbaevna Niyazimbetova, focuses on the relevance of the problem of early childhood autism, the difficulties of diagnosis and the limitations of traditional methods of therapy. TMS is considered as a promising, non-invasive neuromodulation technology capable of correcting key symptoms of ASD: decreased social adaptation, autostimulation, anxiety, and deficits in verbal and non-verbal communication. Based on data from international and domestic studies, including clinical observations at the Nukus Psychoneurological Dispensary, the potential effectiveness of TMS has been substantiated, especially when using repetitive (rTMS) and theta-rhythmic stimulation (iTBS). The proposed neurophysiological mechanisms of action of TMS are considered: restoration of the balance of excitation and inhibition in the brain, stimulation of the prefrontal cortex, improvement of neuroplasticity and emotional regulation. The need for an integrated approach combining TMS with behavioral therapy and cognitive rehabilitation is emphasized.

Despite the encouraging results, the author notes the limited evidence base, small samples and the need for further randomized controlled trials. Nevertheless, TMS is considered a promising direction in neuropsychiatry, opening up new opportunities for improving the quality of life of children with ASD.

 Considering the increasing incidence of toxic liver damage—the primary organ for xenobiotic detoxification—the insufficient effectiveness of currently used pharmacological treatments necessitates the search for and implementation of new effective drugs for treating hepatobiliary system pathology in prepubertal patients. In this context, the authors studied the effects of Rutan and Karsil on the levels of lipid peroxidation products (Acylhydroperoxides [AcGP], malondialdehyde [MDA]) and the activity of antioxidant enzyme systems (catalase [CAT], superoxide dismutase [SOD]) in the liver during acute hepatitis induced by carbon tetrachloride in one-month-old rats. Results showed that Rutan, similarly to Karsil, reduces elevated levels of AcGP and MDA in the microsomal-cytosolic liver fraction significantly increased by acute toxic hepatitis induced by carbon tetrachloride. Notably, this effect is accompanied by increased activity of antioxidant enzyme systems. It was concluded that Rutan may be used in the treatment of acute liver diseases in the prepubertal period.

The regeneration of nervous tissues is a fundamental topic in neuroscience and regenerative medicine, with significant implications for the treatment of injuries and neurodegenerative diseases. While many vertebrates demonstrate a remarkable capacity to regenerate components of their nervous system, humans have a relatively limited ability in this regard. This disparity has led to intense scientific interest in understanding the underlying biological mechanisms that govern nervous tissue regeneration across different species. In vertebrates such as fish and amphibians, neuronal regeneration is robust and efficient. For instance, zebrafish can regenerate entire sections of their spinal cord and optic nerve after injury. Similarly, salamanders are capable of regenerating complex neural structures, including limbs that contain nerve tissues. These regenerative processes are supported by the presence of active neural stem cells, permissive microenvironments, and reduced scarring and inflammation following injury.

In contrast, humans and other mammals exhibit a very restricted ability to regenerate nervous tissues, particularly within the central nervous system (CNS). Injuries to the spinal cord or brain often result in permanent functional deficits due to limited neurogenesis, glial scarring, and inhibitory molecular signals that prevent axonal regrowth. Although some neurogenesis occurs in the adult human brain, particularly in regions like the hippocampus and subventricular zone, it is not sufficient to repair extensive damage. Moreover, peripheral nervous system (PNS) regeneration is more successful in humans than CNS regeneration, yet even this is limited by the extent and severity of injury.

The evolutionary basis for these differences is an area of active investigation. It is hypothesized that the enhanced complexity and specialization of the human brain may have come at the cost of regenerative plasticity. Additionally, differences in immune responses, gene expression patterns, and the cellular microenvironment contribute to the disparity between species. Vertebrates that can regenerate nervous tissues typically exhibit a dampened immune response that allows for tissue repair without extensive fibrosis. In contrast, humans have a more robust inflammatory response, which, while protective, often impedes regeneration.

Recent advances in molecular biology and stem cell research have opened new avenues for understanding and potentially enhancing nervous tissue regeneration in humans. Techniques such as induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), gene editing, and biomaterial scaffolds are being explored to mimic the regenerative capacity observed in lower vertebrates. Comparative studies between regenerative and non-regenerative species offer valuable insights into the key factors that promote or inhibit nervous system repair.

In conclusion, the regeneration of nervous tissues represents a key biological difference between vertebrates and humans, with profound implications for medical science. While lower vertebrates demonstrate impressive regenerative abilities, humans are significantly limited in their capacity to recover from neural injuries. Understanding these differences at a cellular and molecular level is crucial for developing effective therapies to treat spinal cord injuries, brain trauma, and neurodegenerative conditions. Bridging the gap between species through translational research may eventually enable humans to harness regenerative processes that are currently beyond our biological capabilities.

Nervous tissue is considered the most complex and specialized tissue in the human and animal body. It consists of nerve cells—neurons—and supportive glial cells, and it forms both the central (brain and spinal cord) and peripheral (peripheral nerves and ganglia) nervous systems. The main function of nervous tissue is to receive, transmit, and respond to information from both external and internal environments. Its morphological structure and cellular/tissue-level organization play a crucial role in the performance of its physiological functions.

The regeneration of nervous tissue, i.e., its ability to recover after injury, is one of the most pressing areas of modern neurobiology. The regenerative potential of the central nervous system (CNS) is significantly lower than that of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). This implies a limited capacity for full recovery after injuries to the brain or spinal cord. In contrast, the peripheral nervous system, particularly due to the activity of Schwann cells, demonstrates a comparatively higher regenerative capacity. This difference is mainly attributed to the presence or absence of factors within the tissue microenvironment that either promote or inhibit regeneration.

Recent studies have shown that, although limited, neurogenesis—the formation of new neurons—also occurs in the central nervous system. Neuroblast formation has been particularly observed in the hippocampus and the subventricular zones surrounding the lateral ventricles in adults. This suggests that nervous tissue has a certain potential for self-repair under specific conditions. However, such processes are typically slow and rarely lead to complete regeneration.

One of the main obstacles to regeneration in the CNS is the formation of glial scars (gliosis) caused by the proliferation of glial cells, especially astrocytes, at the injury site. These scars act as physical and chemical barriers that restrict nerve impulse transmission and axon growth. Therefore, many modern studies aim to overcome these barriers, identify biomolecules that stimulate regeneration, and enhance neuronal recovery using neurotrophic factors.

This article analyzes the histological structure of nervous tissue, the interaction between neurons and glial cells, mechanisms of regeneration, differences between the CNS and PNS, and modern therapeutic and restorative approaches (including neurostimulation, biomaterials, and stem cell therapy). It also explores recent experimental and clinical advancements as well as the existing challenges in the field of neural regeneration.

A deeper understanding of the regenerative potential of nervous tissue not only helps address challenges in surgery, traumatology, and neurology but also lays a scientific foundation for the future treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Congenital hepatic hypoplasia, or liver hypoplasia, refers to a rare developmental anomaly characterized by an underdeveloped hepatic parenchyma. This condition may affect the entire liver or be confined to one lobe (typically the left lobe), leading to asymmetry and potential functional compromise. Although it is often asymptomatic and discovered incidentally during imaging or autopsy, hepatic hypoplasia may also present clinically with portal hypertension, hepatopulmonary syndrome, or be associated with other congenital malformations. A thorough understanding of the embryological, anatomical, and pathological features of hepatic hypoplasia is crucial for early diagnosis, surgical planning, and differential diagnosis from more severe conditions such as hepatic agenesis or atrophy secondary to vascular insults.
