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.
The RUDN University Science and Innovation Prize winners were honoured at the extended meeting of the Academic Council. In 2024 the terms of the traditional RUDN University Prize were changed: for the first time the competition was announced in two categories: leading scientists and young scientists.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), electricity consumption in Africa has increased by more than 100% over the past two years (2020-2022). However, 74.9% of this energy is still produced by burning organic fuels — natural gas, coal and oil. At the same time, the level of electrification on the continent remains extremely low — only 24%, while in other developing countries it reaches 40%. Even in grid-connected areas, electricity supply is often unreliable: industrial enterprises lose energy on an average of 56 days a year.
Today, diagnosis and treatment planning with orthodontists takes several days. Also, complications can arise during treatment that slow down the patient's recovery process. For example, improper orthodontic treatment planning can lead to temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
