Peer-reviewed online journal “Actual endocrinology. Problems of endocrinology Journal endocrinology
The development by the editors of the journal "Problems of Endocrinology" of new requirements for the design of manuscripts is due to the desire to follow the global trends in the development of evidence-based medicine. The requirements, which may be updated in the future, are developed taking into account " uniform requirements to Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals" compiled by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors.
The journal "Problems of Endocrinology" publishes articles on clinical and experimental endocrinology containing new data. The journal publishes articles on the actual endocrinological problem (histology, physiology, biochemistry, etiology, pathogenesis, prevention, treatment, epidemiology of endocrine diseases, hormone therapy, primary pathology of the endocrine system). The editors do not consider works whose results have already been published or described in articles submitted or accepted for publication in other publications, both domestic and foreign.

In the "Materials and Methods" section, the organization of the study (design) should be clearly and precisely described. In particular, the variant of the study is indicated: one-stage (transverse), longitudinal (prospective or retrospective case-control study). Criteria for inclusion in and exclusion from the study (rather than a mere statement of diagnosis) should be described. It is mandatory to mention the presence or absence of randomization (with an indication of the methodology) when distributing patients into groups, as well as the presence or absence of masking ("blinding") when using placebo and drug in clinical trials. In this section, it is necessary to describe in detail the equipment and diagnostic equipment used, indicating its main technical specifications and manufacturer, as well as the names of commercial kits for hormonal and biochemical studies, indicating their manufacturers and normal values for individual indicators. When using generally accepted research methods, they must be given appropriate literary references. It is necessary to indicate the exact international names of all drugs and chemicals used, doses and methods of application (routes of administration).

In each case, the actual value of the achieved significance level "p" for the statistical test used (and not just "p< 0,05" или "p >0.05"). In addition, it is necessary to indicate the specific values of the obtained statistical criteria (for example, the criterion c2 = 12.3; the number of degrees of freedom df = 2, p = 0.0001).
All statistical terms, abbreviations and symbols used should be defined. For example, M is the sample mean, m (SEM) is the error of the mean, STD is the sample standard deviation, p is the level of significance achieved. When using expressions like M ± m, you must specify the value of each symbol, as well as the sample size (n).
Average values should not be given more accurately than one decimal place compared to the original data, the standard deviation and the error of the mean should be one more decimal place more accurate.

Do not use abbreviations (abbreviations) in the title of the article, conclusions and summary. The full term replaced by an abbreviation must precede the first use of that abbreviation in the text (unless it is a standard unit of measure). The names of enzymes in tissue preparations, suspension media buffers, and experimental methods (with the exception of EPR, NMR, CD, ORD) are not abbreviated. Chemical elements and simple inorganic compounds should be denoted by chemical formulas. The names of organic compounds can be replaced by formulas if they are shorter than the name and clearly show its structure. Mixed abbreviations are not allowed, which, along with Russian letters, include symbols of the atom in Latin transcription. In such cases, the entire abbreviation should be written either in Latin letters or in Russian without abbreviation.

In the conditions of modern reality, in the forced pursuit of earnings, it is not always possible to notice in time that your child is unhealthy. Deviations in the work of the endocrine system often develop slowly and imperceptibly, and the consequences can be disappointing. During puberty, starting from 10-12 years old and older, the child is most vulnerable, while it is increasingly difficult to find a common language with him. At this stage of life, the endocrine system works in a stressful mode.
Hormone therapy: should I be afraid of it
The method of hormone therapy has been used in medicine for more than a century, but people still treat it with distrust. Despite the fact that treatment with drugs containing hormones can reverse the course of a serious illness and even save a life, many consider them harmful and dangerous. To dispel fears and misconceptions, you need to understand the principle of the effect of such drugs on the human body.
Metabolism: how civilization has affected metabolism
The desire for an ideal figure and good physical shape is pushing millions of people to change their diet and exercise. And this is the right call. Pleasant appearance and inner confidence are the first important steps on the way to success. But what if the extra pounds do not go away even after a sharp restriction in food? This problem is common among people who are always losing weight. Many experts argue that metabolism is to blame for the unwillingness of the body to get rid of excess weight. Is it so?
Growth hormone: forewarned is forearmed
Human growth hormone (somatotropin) is spoken of in Lately a lot, attributing to it simply miraculous properties. Let's see: is it true? Somatotropin is produced in the anterior pituitary gland of the brain. By chemical composition it is a polypeptide protein. Growth hormone has, as its name implies, a significant impact on the human growth process. But pay attention: only in childhood and adolescence - when there are "growth zones" in the long tubular bones. That is, somatotropin is prescribed by endocrinologists when its deficiency is detected precisely during this period of life, as the most effective way to treat pituitary dwarfism.
It's time to visit the endocrinologist: 10 alarming symptoms
If you ask what endocrinology is associated with, then perhaps most often we can hear: diabetes, thyroid disease, obesity, menopause. Indeed, the endocrinologist is engaged in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of these and many other diseases of the endocrine system. It is rare to get to this doctor right away - losing precious time, we first turn to a therapist. But it is known that the sooner we get to a highly specialized specialist, the sooner the necessary treatment will begin, which will avoid serious complications.
Men and hormonal imbalance: causes of endocrine disruption
The term "hormonal failure" is associated, first of all, with the fair sex. But men also suffer from endocrine dysfunctions, and despite their different body structure, the symptoms of hormonal imbalance are very similar to women's. How to determine the lack or excess of the necessary substances? Are there effective ways struggle with such pathologies?
Any person knows that his body produces hormones. But not everyone can explain their purpose and impact on life. Interest in this medical field appears in adulthood. Most often, health problems are pushing for a thorough study of the issue. Unexpected weight gain, brittle nails, severe menopause - all these are the results of a violation of the endocrine and exocrine systems.
Chronic insufficiency of the adrenal cortex, which occurs when they are bilaterally affected and leads to a partial cessation of the production of certain hormones, is called Addison's disease. This rare endocrine disease is diagnosed with a frequency of one case per hundred thousand of the population, in all age groups with the same probability among men and women.
How to control blood sugar levels
In the early 1990s, portable glucometers became widespread in Russia, which was a breakthrough in the way of monitoring blood sugar levels and made life easier for those suffering from diabetes. And these are not unfounded statements, because before diabetics had to take a blood and urine test every month. clinical laboratory. At the same time, even good indicators could not guarantee that the entire next month, the glucose level would not become significantly higher than normal. After all, it is influenced by lifestyle, type of nutrition, physical and emotional fatigue. Let us consider in more detail effective ways to control glucose in the circulatory system of the body.
Types, symptoms and diagnosis of thyroiditis
Thyroiditis is a collective term for inflammation of the thyroid gland. In the human body, each organ performs a specific function. Violation of this process leads to serious complications, especially if a failure occurs in the hormone production system. It is impossible to overestimate the importance of the thyroid gland. It regulates metabolism, performs a set of functions aimed at regulating the heartbeat, movement and other body processes.
Hypothyroidism: symptoms and treatment
Thyroid hormones perform very important role in the regulation of metabolism. A condition in which they are produced in insufficient quantities is called hypothyroidism. It causes a slowdown in vital functions and can lead to changes in the functioning of all body systems. It occurs in ten percent of women, but is often detected late due to the blurring of symptoms.
Diseases of the pituitary gland
The importance of the pituitary gland in the functioning of the body cannot be underestimated. It is responsible for controlling the functions of the endocrine glands and the maturation of organs. It is also entrusted with the mission of coordinating processes in various parts of the body (uterus, mammary glands, kidneys, ovaries). The pituitary gland produces a number of hormones necessary for normal growth. Violation of such production leads to the appearance of severe pathologies.
Statistics do not lie: every tenth woman who is 40 years old suffers from thyroid pathologies. Hypo- and hyperfunction of the thyroid gland is quite difficult to recognize: many symptoms of hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism (excessive and insufficient production of thyroid hormones by the gland) are blurred or similar to the clinical signs of other ailments, for example, hypofunction is often confused with a malfunction nervous system. Weakness, headache, fatigue, dry skin, hair loss - an incomplete list of how a lack of hormones affects a person's health. Let's figure out how to diagnose and treat thyroid disease.
Hirsutism: causes and treatment
When male hormones prevail over female hormones in the fair sex, serious changes occur throughout the body. One of these unpleasant problems is hirsutism, which is manifested by excessive hair growth in places that are atypical for girls. Dark coarse hair begins to cover the back, chest, abdomen, buttocks and even the face. What factors provoke such an unpleasant phenomenon and how to get rid of it?
Diabetic foot syndrome is a common and extremely dangerous condition that occurs against the background of diabetes. Due to high sugar, blood microcirculation deteriorates, immunity falls, the skin becomes insensitive, wounds do not heal for a long time. This leads to infection and suppuration. In advanced cases, the patient is threatened with amputation. To stand firmly on your feet, follow the prescriptions of doctors: regularly feel your feet, monitor their hygiene, entrust the removal of calluses to a podiatrist, treat the fungus in a timely manner, buy comfortable, orthopedic shoes.
Diagnosis and treatment of diabetes
Diabetes mellitus is a common disease caused by a deficiency of the pancreatic hormone insulin. Such a violation leads to a persistent increase in blood sugar levels. The disease affects all age groups. Its consequences include metabolic disorders, malfunctions of the nervous and cardiovascular systems.
Dieting - required condition for the treatment of diabetes mellitus and the prevention of the onset of this disease. Often, endocrinological pathologies develop against the background of metabolic disorders and obesity. A balanced menu will help normalize blood glucose levels.
