НАШИ ЮБИЛЯРЫ ПЕЛИПАС ВАДИМ ЕФИМОВИЧ к 70-летию со дня рождения В октябре 2009 г. исполнилось 70 лет Пелипасу Вадиму Ефимовичу, кандидату медицинских наук, на протяжении последних 25 лет занимавшего руководящие должности в ФГУ ННЦ наркологии Минздравсоцразвития России. <...> Пелипас окончил лечебный факультет Киевского медицинского института в 1962 г., затем работал врачом-психиатром в Киевской психоневрологической больнице им. академика И. <...> Пелипас перешел на работу во Всесоюзный научный центр медико-биологических проблем наркологии Минздрава СССР в качестве руководителя отделения эпидемиологии пьянства и алкоголизма. <...> Редакция журнала «Вопросы наркологии» 120 ABSTRACTS PHOTOAUTOHEMOTHERAPY OUTCOME IN ALCOHOLIC PATIENTS WITH CARDIOLOGIC PATHOLOGY Dronov O.E., Dronova T.G. Sixty alcoholic patients were examined in a comparative clinical study of the complex photoautohemotherapy (PAHT) effect on early cardiologic pathology. <...> Diagnostics of cardiologic pathology and control of the therapy was carried out using EKG dispersion mapping, which is a method for express assessment of heart functional condition. <...> Our findings show that PAHT along with a positive effect on patients’ general condition contributes to a better functional condition of the heart due to normalization of the myocardium depolarization and repolarisation and may be recommended for the prevention of cardiologic pathology in alcohol dependent patients. <...> MOLECULAR-GENETIC ANALYSIS OF FAMILY HISTORY OF ALCOHOLISM IN SUBSTANCE DEPENDENT PATIENTS: DOPAMINE D4 RECEPTOR GENE (DRD4) POLYMORPHISM Kibitov A.O., Voskoboeva E.Yu., Brodyansky V.M., Chuprova N.A., Smirnova E.V. The aim of this association study was to investigate DRD4 gene polymorphic loci of VNTR type: 48-bp repeat in exon III (V48) and 120-bp repeat in 5’-region (V120) in alcohol- and heroin dependent patients with different densities of family history of alcoholism. <...> DNA samples from 794 male Slavonic subjects (449 alcohol-dependent patients, 261 heroin dependent ones and 274 healthy controls) were examined. <...> Family history of patients was studied and the density of family history of alcoholism was calculated for each patient. <...> An association between studied loci and family history of alcoholism in both cohort <...>
