Application for the implementation of a scientific, scientific and technical program within the framework of program-targeted funding

BR 11065386-OT-22

The purpose of the program: A comprehensive assessment of the mechanisms of exposure to a new coronavirus infection, the search for new methods of diagnosis and treatment, the justification of the response system to the spread of coronavirus infection, adapted to possible new respiratory infections.

COVID-19: Научно-технологическое обоснование системы реагирования на распространение новых респираторных инфекций

Abstract

Coronavirus infection has become a challenge to the health care system, practical medicine and medical science in general. The epidemic has revealed many gaps in our understanding of viruses and the diseases they cause. The flurry of studies that followed the coronavirus outbreaks requires systematization, analysis, expansion of samples, as well as confirmation in different populations and groups. The interaction of the virus and the host is a key point in the development of infection, immunogenetic mechanisms make a significant contribution to the severity of symptoms, prognosis and outcome of the disease.

The available research results indicate the presence and possibility of developing both early and long-term consequences of coronavirus infection, which makes it necessary to further study the pathogenetic mechanisms of development, prognostic markers of adverse outcome, features of clinical manifestations, and complications against the background of COVID-19.

Expected results

Probable models of the infectious process in the event of new severe acute respiratory infections will be developed to predict the biological risks associated with new respiratory infectious diseases, including COVID-19. Recommendations have been developed to improve the system of response to possible biological risks associated with new respiratory infectious diseases, including COVID-19. An interactive map (geographic information system) with data on cases of respiratory diseases and reference materials on the resources of the health system, checkpoints at the state border of the Republic of Kazakhstan, population density has been developed. Methodological recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of coronavirus infection, as well as for the prevention of risks of infection of medical workers, have been developed. Possible interactions in the host-pathogen system were identified and possible therapeutic targets for the treatment of coronavirus infection were studied. Rehabilitation programs for post-ovoid syndromes have been developed.

Three COVID-19 propagation models based on different approaches (ARIMA and TBATS) were developed.

The most significant associations of clinical manifestations with workload and high neuro-emotional stress (R2 39.98%, p=0.004), weekly and daily workload (R2 33.06%, p=0.0008), failure to staff PPE (R2 25.29%, p=0.017) in healthcare workers were.

There is a tendency to develop both individual symptoms and phases of emotional burnout negatively affecting personal and professional characteristics of medical specialists.

In the structure of complications, cardiovascular complications and type 2 diabetes mellitus prevailed in patients after COVID-19.

Intervillous thrombi and deposits of fibrinoid deposits enveloping the chorionic villi with obliteration of the intervillous space were more frequently detected in the placenta in the group with COVID-19.

The results demonstrate the need to adjust the current dosing regimen of Sputnik-V depending on the presence of COVID-19 in the history. Postvoid syndrome is characterized by a decline in specific antibodies, a sharp (16-fold) chronic decrease of CD32BC, a prolonged increase of IL-27 (2.5 times). In 34% of cases there is a significant decrease in phagocytic activity, which correlates with the volume of primary lung tissue lesion.

The proportion of pregnant women registered before the twelfth week remains insufficiently high, which to a certain extent influences the maternal mortality rate.

The target consumers will be specialists in the field of health care and organizations of sanitary and epidemiological surveillance. Health and social impact: strengthening the system of response to threats associated with new respiratory infectious diseases, including COVID-19, risk assessment, monitoring and forecasting in order to prevent population losses.

IT platform for integrated training and control of surgical competencies

AP19578688

Objective:to develop, test and introduce into the system of higher medical education an IT platform for integrated training and control of surgical competencies based on a combined assessment

IT платформа для интегрированного обучения и контроля хирургических компетенций

Abstract

Current methods for assessing surgeons' knowledge do not allow us to assess all the competencies that a graduate surgeon should possess. They provide a narrow assessment of information proficiency and manual skills, and lack a comprehensive, integrated approach to the final certification of a surgeon. The introduction of mandatory clinical residency in surgical specialties once again confirms the relevance of the Project and the digital Product being developed: "outdated" methods of assessing knowledge do not provide adequate control over resident surgeons. An integrated and independent approach is needed.

A survey was conducted among 154 students (6th- and 7th-year students and 1- to 3-year residents) and 64 teachers in surgical disciplines at three medical universities in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Traditional forms of assessment (testing and oral examination) are perceived as partially objective (Me=2-2.1), whereas Mini-CEX and AXIS are perceived as highly objective (Me=1.35 and Me=1.51, respectively). The concept of the KazMEE digital platform integrates four assessment methods (testing, oral exam, Mini-CEX, AXIS), an automated calculation formula, and a modular structure (authorization, content, testing, evaluation, analytics). A prototype of the educational interface and a technical specification for software implementation have been created. A pilot test of the platform was conducted among 125 students and 40 teachers, with an average satisfaction score of 4.38 on the Likert scale.

A convenient digital tool has been developed for integrated training and objective assessment of surgical competencies, combining testing, oral examination, Mini-CEX, and AXIS in a single system with automatic calculation of results and analytics. The platform increases transparency of control, reduces assessment subjectivity, and simplifies the organization of current and final certification, ensuring high user satisfaction.

Psychophysiological parameters of medical students with the use of different educational technologies were monitored and a comprehensive assessment of the effectiveness of different educational technologies that develop flexible skills in terms of psycho-emotional state andlearning outcomes was given. T

The educational technologies closest to the real situation cause higher psychophysiological tension. The combination of soft physiological mode of learning and detailed feedback leads to learning efficiency and mastery of all required flexible skills by the learners. The effectiveness of learning depends not only on the educational technology used, but also on the type of task at hand. Different learning tasks require different flexible skills that can be mastered more or less effectively when used. Individual responses are most pronounced in the types of learning that are closest to practice. External academic stress, perceived psychologically, leads to an overreaction to peak loads during learning, reducing its effectiveness. The author's certificate for the developed method of adaptive learning was obtained

The economic and educational effectiveness of different learning trajectories stimulating the development of flexible skills in medical education was evaluated. Approaches to optimize costs while maintaining high educational efficiency are proposed.

The educational effectiveness of the implementation of adaptive learning methods has been analyzed. Based on the results of two-stage expert evaluation of Delphi methods, the draft methodological recommendations for creating an adaptive environment of higher education of different teaching methods are compiled.

The primary project application area is the secondary and higher education. The projects results will benefit the school and university teachers, administration of schools and universities, as well as regional Departments of Education, Ministry of Education and Science, Ministry of Healthcare.

Study of the association of trimethylamine N-oxide and lipopolysaccharide-binding protein levels with the activity of inflammatory bowel diseases

AP14871959

Objective:The goal of the project is to study the concentrations of trimethylamine Noxide and lipopolysaccharide-binding protein in the blood of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases and assess their relationship with disruption of the intestinal microbiota and disease activity.

Изучение ассоциации уровня триметиламин N-оксида и липополисахарид-связывающего белка с активностью воспалительных заболеваний кишечника

Relevance.

The study of IBD markers is a priority, since, according to epidemiological data, the prevalence of ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease in the world ranges from 4 to 20 cases per 100 thousand population, depending on different regions of residence, and the annual increase in incidence according to the global trend is 5 —20 cases per 100 thousand population.An important aspect is that untimely diagnosis of the disease leads to a more severe course, widespread damage, an increase in the number of surgical interventions and early disability of patients, especially among the young, working population. Characteristics of the course of IBD are based on a combination of clinical, histological and endoscopic data.The main method of diagnosis is undoubtedly endoscopic evaluation with histological examination, but biomarkers from blood and stool samples are used to monitor disease activity. White blood cell counts, Creactive protein (CRP), and fecal calprotectin can help distinguish IBD from noninflammatory diarrhea and assess disease activity. But being “non-specific”, CRP and leukocytes do not always help in diagnosing IBD.As for fecal calprotectin, the literature suggests that despite its high sensitivity and specificity, it is a reliable marker, but its ability to assess in ulcerative colitis is higher than in Crohn's disease. The widespread use of metagenomics is currently giving great impetus to the study of the role of various metabolites of the gut microbiome in the pathogenesis of diseases. In particular, it is trimethylamine-N-oxide, as well as a marker of leaky gut syndrome, lipopolysaccharide-binding protein.Both of them are involved in the process of stimulation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, which in turn triggers the overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines, increasing chronic inflammation, and hence the course of IBD.

Expected results:

Clinical, laboratory, endoscopic and histological characteristics of patients with IBD of varying degrees of activity will be given, features of the microbial landscape will be determined, the concentration of TMAO and LPS protein will be determined and it will be established whether the altered level of TMAO and LPS protein reflects disturbances in the composition of the intestinal microbiota and activity of the pathological process in IBD.

AP09259923

Objective: to establish the negative effects of non-ionizing radiation exposure fromhigh-tech equipment on the human body at the cellular and subcellular levels to justify preventive programs.

Выявление негативного воздействия сложного комплекса неионизирующих излучений на организм человека (на примере медицинского персонала)

Relevance

The rapid and widespread introduction of insufficiently researched technologies (MRI,ultrasound ) into medical diagnostic and treatment processes, USD is due to the urgent need to combat the pandemic, which causes some caution in terms of individual health not onlyof patients, but also of medical personnel. The introduction of modern medical diagnostic equipment inspecialized institutions of the Karaganda region, the use of various protective systems of ionizing and non-ionizing radiation sources in terms of power and quality, requiresan integrated epidemiological and hygienic assessment. Its implementation will allowidentifying all external risk factors that contribute to the development to f certain pathologicalprocesses and syndromes in personnel engaged in setting up and operating such equipment.The study of the structure of the main nosologies during an in-depth medical examination ofemployees will be based oncytochemical and biochemical, psychophysiological and clinical, and sociological studies toidentify risk groups experiencing the greatest adverse effects, confirmed by modern statistical analysis methods. Based on the results, calculated tests forreducing medical and social losses will be presented-technologies for reducing health risks aimed at ensuring the sanitary well – being of personnel.

Expected results.

Sanitary and hygienic, clinical and laboratory (cytogenetic, biochemical, and immunological) parameters will be evaluated in employees who come into contact with nonionizing radiation from high-performance diagnostic complexes (MRI, ultrasound).

Regularities of disorders in the functioning of psychological stability, cytogenetic immunological status of medical workers in magnetic and electromagnetic fields of a complex spectrum will be established.

1. The main adverse occupational factors are as follows:

- For MRI medical staff - electromagnetic fields (EMF) of radio frequency 30-300 MHz by the magnetic component (at 41.2% of workplaces, 4.6-16.2 A/m) and industrial frequency EMF by the electric component (up to 1.3 kV/m at 47.1% of workplaces), in combination with elevated noise levels (up to 64.3 dBA at 50% of workplaces) and unfavorable microclimate conditions (at 58.9% of workplaces, air temperature exceeds the maximum permissible level by 4.6°C; at 47.1% of workplaces, relative air humidity drops to 33.1%; low air movement speed -0.02-0.08 m/s).

- For ultrasound (US) medical staff - industrial frequency EMF by the electric component (at 50% of workplaces, 0.55-1.1 V/m) in combination with elevated noise levels (at 61.1% of workplaces, ranging from 51.6 to 63.1 dBA), inadequate lighting (at 83.3% of workplaces, less than 153 lux), and unfavorable microclimate conditions (at 77.8% of workplaces, air temperature exceeds the maximum permissible level by 6.5°C; at 66.7% of workplaces, relative air humidity drops to 30.1%; low air movement speed - 0.03-0.08 m/s)

- For ophthalmology medical staff - increased noise levels (at 33.3% of workplaces, ranging from 50.4 to 57.9 dBA), insufficient lighting (at 74.1% of workplaces, less than 252 lux), and unfavorable microclimate conditions (at 92.6% of workplaces, air temperature exceeds the maximum permissible level by 6.5°C, and relative air humidity is below the maximum permissible level by 17.2%; low air movement speed - 0.015-0.08 m/s).

2. The dose loads of chemical substances on the bodies of medical staff working in MRI, ultrasound, and ophthalmology clinics due to inhalation at workplaces of low hazard for the development of specific diseases.

Based on the results of the study of the quality of life of medical staff using the WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire, it was found that the overall quality of life of the medical staff included in the study is rated as "high." Medical personnel, regardless of their field of activity, demonstrate high subjective well-being, with respondents reporting that their basic needs and quality of life are satisfactory.

Medical personnel in all three study groups exhibit sufficient physical and psychological well-being and a subjective sense of success in social interactions. Although the indicators of the "Physical and Psychological Well-being" domain of quality of life for MRI medical staff were 82.0±2.0%, for ophthalmological staff - 79.2±3.1%, which are higher than the corresponding domain levels for ultrasound staff, which were 68.8±2.8%, with statistical significance levels of p=0.0004 and 0.008, respectively.

However, 7.3% of respondents reported a slightly decreased quality of life and possible negative emotional states (anxiety, tension, emptiness, and boredom) with a sense of monotony in their daily lives and high workloads.

Medical staff working with MRI and ultrasound equipment subjectively note the presence of factors significantly affecting their work performance, such as various frequency EMF, noise, personal protective equipment, inadequate lighting, and suboptimal air temperature.

The results of psychophysiological research indicate that mild depression may develop due to the work-related stress, such as night shifts and the responsibility for accurate diagnostics among MRI specialists. On the other hand, a high level of depression may be associated with professional burnout among ultrasound specialists and ophthalmologists.

Medical staff working in MRI clinics demonstrate a slower aging process, a younger actual age, and lower biological age compared to staff in ultrasound and ophthalmology clinics. This may be due to intermittent exposure to low EMF values and can be considered a stimulating and favorable effect on the human body, provided that safety requirements for work operations are strictly observed.

Lower average values of attention, verbal short-term memory for words, and visual shortterm memory for numbers were found among MRI specialists compared to the control group. This indicates a high intensity of risk factors affecting their psychofunctional activity, leading to fatigue. The mental work productivity and accuracy among MRI specialists were also lower than in the other study groups.

Analysis of hemodynamic parameters of the examined medical staff in the main and control groups indicates an earlier deterioration of vascular functional status and a potential initial formation of hypertension and atherosclerosis. Decreased activity of the parasympathetic nervous system was observed in the MRI and ultrasound staff based on heart rate variability analysis.

Biochemical and immunological research results did not reveal significant metabolic changes among medical staff in MRI and ultrasound clinics compared to the physiological norm. The heat shock protein (HSP 60) values in the studied group did not differ from those in the control group, indicating no differences in immune reactions between the compared groups and in the structural configuration of molecular enzymes. The functional activity of these enzymes was not reduced (creatine kinase and nitric oxide synthase).

Epidemiological research revealed that the average rate of oncological diseases among ultrasound specialists exceeded that of ophthalmologists by a factor of 2.33. The incidence rate of urogenital diseases among ultrasound specialists was significantly higher, especially in the middle-aged group, compared to the control group. In the pre-retirement age group, musculoskeletal system diseases were more prevalent among ultrasound specialists, significantly surpassing ophthalmologists. During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, when comparing the incidence of COVID-19 among the adult population of Kazakhstan with the incidence rate among professional cohorts of medical staff in the Karaganda region (ophthalmologists, specialists in ultrasound and radiology), significant increases were identified, ranging from 7 to 11 times.

The target audience will include scientific researchers in biological laboratories and university departments, developers of modern diagnostic systems, professionals in regional healthcare authorities, and sanitary inspection organizations. Predicting and managing the occupational, deterministic risks of cardiovascular, nervous system diseases, new growths, and reproductive disorders among medical workers will have a significant impact on preventing years of life lost. An information database containing quantitative and qualitative parameters of environmental hazards and predictions of their impact on the health of medical personnel exposed to a complex mix of non-ionizing radiation, noise, vibration, microclimatic, and lighting factors can be provided (on commercial terms) for the creation of extensive databases for further scientific research.

Study the dynamics of reparative osteogenesis and the restructuring of the duplex Patriotic allograft prepared according to the Marburg bone banking system, in combination with osteoinductor substances

AR09260954

Objective: To study the effectiveness, dynamics of reparative osteogenesis and restructuring of a duplex domestic allograft prepared according to the Marburg bone bank system in combination with osteoinductive substances when filling bone defects in rabbits.

Изучить динамику репаративного остеогенеза и перестройку дуплексного Отечественного аллографта, заготовленного по Марбургской системе костного банка, в комбинации с остеоиндукторными субстанциями

Relevance

At present, the standard treatment for bone tissue defects of various etiologies is its filling with an auto- or allograft. However, most of the allografts used are imported and are not registered in the state register of medicines, medical devices and medical equipment, which makes it difficult to use these drugs on the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan. It is worth noting the high cost of foreign bone-plastic materials for orthopedic operations, in addition, large volumes of these drugs are required when replacing defects. The creation of a duplex domestic osteoplastic material combined with osteoinductor substances will allow to cure patients with bone defects and false joints, reduce disability, obtain an economic effect from cost reduction and the possibility of exporting the drug to near and far abroad.

Expected results:

On the basis of the conducted comparative study, a method for treating bone tissue defects will be developed, which will fill the voids and enhance local bone regeneration. This technique will improve the quality of reconstructive and restorative operations on the bones. The economic effect of this study is to reduce the cost of purchasing an allograft, in view of the preparation of one's own, from the heads of the femoral bones removed from patients after hip arthroplasty. The above will reduce the cost of purchasing bone tissue from foreign manufacturers, create conditions for the production of domestic bone allografts in the Republic of Kazakhstan, and cover the need for safe donor bone in trauma and orthopedic departments. Stimulation of osteogenesis will make it possible to obtain a new technology of treatment in traumatology and orthopedics, reduce the time and number of hospitalizations, and reduce disability, which has not only an economic but also a social effect. The results of this study will allow the next stage of the clinical study.

In 2023, a histological study was carried out to determine the dynamics of healing of the bone defect. For this purpose, 5 groups (30 rabbits each) were formed: 1 group – allograft with PRP; Group 2 – allograft with bisphosphanate; Group 3 – allograft with BMP-2; 4- allograft with BMP-2+ bisphosphonate; Group 5 – with allograft, which were operated on to form a model of the femoral bone defect. Defects in the groups were filled with various biodegradable materials. The assessment was carried out on days 14 and 30. A previously tested defect of the femur was modeled on rabbits. The results of histological analysis show that the regeneration of the bone defect is more intense with a predominance of newly formed bone tissue in the PRP and BMP-2 groups. In the BMP-2+bisphosphonate and bisphosphonate alone groups, the bone defect was covered predominantly by fibrous tissue.

Information for potential users

Satisfactory results of the pilot study will allow for a clinical trial. In addition, the research results will be useful to a wide range of scientific specialists, undergraduates and doctoral students working in the field of orthopedics, surgery, oncology, etc

The study of health literacy among students of higher educational institutions of the Republic of Kazakhstan to improve approaches to promoting and strengthening health

AP19679263

Objective: This study aims to examine the health literacy level of students of higher education institutions in the Republic of Kazakhstan to improve approaches to promote and enhance the population's health.

Research on health literacy

Relevance

The impact of lifestyle on health indicators of the population, and the growing burden of chronic non-communicable diseases observed in both developed and developing countries, leads to widespread scientific interest in the concepts of health promotion and disease prevention.

Increasing the proportion of the population leading a healthy lifestyle and the development of mass sports is one of the objectives of the national project "Quality and Accessible Health Care for Every Citizen "Healthy Nation" for 2021-2025.

Building a constructive dialogue in the health care system will be most effective when a certain (sufficient) level of health literacy of the population is achieved.

Health literacy, as a set of knowledge, motivation and skills for obtaining, understanding, evaluating, and applying health-related information to make informed decisions, is a research subject in various countries worldwide.

The concept, studied initially primarily in the countries of North America, has subsequently become widespread in Europe and Asia. Increasing attention to the concept in research and practice is due to its close links to social determinants and health behaviours, health outcomes, service use, and the quality of health systems.

Health literacy is fundamental to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals of universal health coverage.

Expected results

The HLS19 questionnaire will be adapted and validated in the Kazakh language, allowing the tool to be used for further research on health literacy in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

General health literacy, digital health literacy, vaccination literacy and navigation literacy will be assessed for students of higher education institutions in the Republic of Kazakhstan using the updated version of the HLS19 questionnaire.

The research project will result in the publication of at least three (3) articles and (or) reviews in peer-reviewed scientific journals indexed in the Science Citation Index Expanded database Web of Science and (or) having CiteScore percentile in the Scopus database at least 35 (thirty-five), and one (1) article or review in a peer-reviewed foreign or domestic publication recommended by CQASEM. Each article will contain information on the identification number and name of the program under which it is funded, indicating program-targeted funding as the source.

The results will be reported at the international conference as a publication in a peer-reviewed foreign scientific journal indexed by the international databases Web of Science and (or) Scopus.

Our research has shown that students in Kazakhstan are generally well versed in health issues, but they have certain difficulties and peculiarities:

  1. An insufficient level of health literacy was recorded in 4.3% of students of all specialties, and 11.5% have a problematic level of MG. At the same time, these indicators were higher among engineering students compared to others.
  2. It is difficult for students to navigate the healthcare system, despite their general understanding of health issues. That is, it can be difficult for our students to understand what to look for, where to go and apply for health problems, as if they are trying to find the right street in an unfamiliar city without a map.
  3. Financial problems strongly affect how well people understand health issues. If it is difficult for a person to purchase medicines or undergo an examination, it is more difficult for them to understand medical information.
  4. In general, students understand the importance of vaccination well, and those who believe in the benefits of vaccinations are usually better versed in this topic. For example, among the general population, those who understand traffic rules are usually more likely to comply with them, and with vaccination issues, those students who understand "What to get? Where? and When?", these students approach this issue more consciously.
  5. Students who have received vaccinations before and those who are older have a better understanding of the issues and importance of vaccination.
  6. Even among medical students, one in eight has difficulty understanding the importance of vaccination or obtaining reliable information about vaccinations.
  7. The adapted version for assessing health literacy of the HLS19 family has shown its effectiveness.
Information for potential users.

Based on the results obtained, it is possible to further study how students' health literacy changes over time, what contributes to (?) or hinders (?) this. Which teaching methods are most effective for improving health literacy, from what period / level of education? If a clinical and economic analysis is carried out, it is possible to calculate the financial, social and medical benefits of certain preventive interventions aimed at improving MG in the early stages of human life.

    Molecular-genetic predictors of H. pylori resistance to eradication therapy regimens in the republic of Kazakhstan

    AP19575049

    Objective: To determine regional genotypes and the level of resistance to antibacterial drugs of H. pylori, as well as the value and effectiveness of molecular genetic methods in the diagnosis and evaluation of eradication therapy of diseases associated with H. pylori in Kazakhstan.

    Molecular genetic predictors

    Relevance

    H. pylori infection causes chronic gastritis via the Correa cascade and can lead to severe gastroduodenal pathology, including peptic ulcer disease, gastric adenocarcinoma, and gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. A meta-analysis and systematic review covering the period 1980–2022 found the overall global prevalence of H. pylori in adults worldwide in 2015–2021 to be 43.1% (95% CI: 42.0–45.4%).

    Early eradication therapy for H. pylori helps eliminate active inflammation of the gastric mucosa, thereby preventing the development of peptic ulcer disease and reducing the development of precancerous lesions in the stomach and stomach cancer. However, the success of eradication therapy has significantly decreased in recent years due to the increasing resistance of H. pylori to antibiotics. Unfortunately, there are no data on the level of antimicrobial resistance in the Republic of Kazakhstan. In addition to the problem of antibiotic resistance, H. pylori strains exhibit phylogeographic differentiation. Knowledge of H. pylori genotypes is essential for epidemiological studies of gastroduodenal diseases, especially in regions where multiple genotypes coexist and can be predictive of disease progression and the effectiveness of eradication therapy.

    Studying molecular genetic predictors of H. pylori resistance in the central region of Kazakhstan will optimize diagnostic methods and evaluate the effectiveness of standard anti-Helicobacter treatment regimens.

    Expected results

    For the first time, based on the obtained results, it is expected that the prevalence of H. pylori, the level of resistance to antibacterial drugs, as well as the value and effectiveness of molecular genetic methods in the diagnosis and evaluation of eradication therapy for diseases associated with H. pylori in Karaganda will be identified.

    Research Group

    Yukhnevich Y.A., Lavrinenko A.V., Kadyrova I.A., Solomadin M.V., Simokhina N.A., Ryazanets D.A., Turemuratova A.B., Seisenbekova A.K., Shkreba A.P., Otemis A.

    The prevalence of H. pylori was 29.81% (95% CI: 25.37–34.67%) in Karaganda. The study identified the following polymorphisms in the vacA genes (s1/s2, s1a, s1b, s1c, m1/m2), as well as the CagE, CagA, IceA1, IceA2, and BabA2 genes.

    The most common H. pylori strains were BabA2 (63.63%), vacA (62.72%), CagE (39.09%), IceA2 (35.45%), and CagA (30.90%).

    Expression of the vacA s1/s2 gene is closely associated with chronic gastritis (p=0.008), as is the VacAs1a polymorphism (p=0.044). vacA s1/s2 strains were significantly associated with gastric ulcer cases (P=0.002), while VacAs1a strains were also associated with gastric ulcer disease (P=0.014). The presence of H. pylori S_23 strains was significantly associated with chronic gastritis in patients (P<0.001). The AMP S_23 gene was also significantly associated with gastric ulcer disease (P<0.001) and duodenal ulcer disease (P=0.039), indicating a possible role for this gene in the development of these conditions. Further research is required.

    According to the results of susceptibility testing, resistance to antimicrobial agents was 20.58%, 20.98%, 9.8%, 4.9%, 9.8%, and 9.8%. Resistance to AMX was 20.98%, complicating empirical eradication therapy, as AMX is found in most combination therapies recommended by the Maastricht Convention No. 6.

    The main mutation in CLA-resistant strains was the 23S rRNA resistance gene A2144G. Significant associations were found between IceA1 and antral localization of endoscopic lesions (p < 0.01), suggesting its localized role in disease pathogenesis. The presence of the VacA m1/m2 polymorphism was associated with damage to the pyloric mucosa. A significant positive correlation was observed between lesions in the corpus of the stomach and the presence of the CagA gene (p < 0.05).

    A more detailed study demonstrated the comparability of antibiotic resistance determination using a classical microbiological test with the identification of the target associated with antibiotic resistance in H. pylori using a molecular genetic method. The association between the presence of PBP1 (χ² - 53.322440) and antibiotic resistance to amoxicillin is statistically significant (p - <0.001, Cramer's V coefficient - 0.518946). The correlation between the presence of PBP1 (χ2 - 33.915000) and resistance to nitrofurantoin is also statistically significant (p - 0.002122, Cramer's V coefficient - 0.413869). The association between the presence of PBP1 (χ2 - 38.115000) and their resistance to tetracycline is also statistically significant (p <0.001, Cramer's V coefficient - 0.438748), as well as levofloxacin (χ2 - 33.078065, Cramer's V coefficient - 0.408731, p - 0.002807), clarithromycin (χ2 - 63.596591 0, Cramer's V coefficient - 0.112927, p - 0.001556) and metronidazole (χ2 -38.457143, Cramer's V coefficient - 0.440713, p <0.001).

    A link was found between gastric ulcers and the consumption of tap water (3.8) and boiled water (4.0), as well as between duodenal ulcers and the consumption of well water (2.7) and tap water (2.4). Furthermore, working as a laborer was associated with an increased risk of developing duodenal ulcers (2.6).

    A significant association was found between the presence of the Ice A2 gene in the pathogen and a positive DUT result after eradication treatment (p=0.064). Patients with the Ice A2 genotype have a 2.429-fold increased risk of treatment failure (OR) at p=0.005.

    Information for potential users.

    This analysis demonstrates the inadequacy of current epidemiological studies and highlights the importance of further research in this area. This study aims to determine the prevalence of H. pylori, understand the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance, and identify predictors of eradication therapy failure. Understanding local epidemiology can help optimize treatment strategies and improve outcomes for patients with H. pylori-related diseases in Karaganda, Kazakhstan.

    Investigation of the interaction of a nanocellulose-based biocomposite in a model of a tubular bone defect in an in vivo experiment

    AP19678427

    Objective: To study in vivo the effect of a nanocellulose-based biocomposite on bone tissue in a model of a tubular bone defect.

    Исследование взаимодействия биокомпозита на основе наноцеллюлозы в модели костного дефекта трубчатой кости в эксперименте invivo

    Relevance

    Currently, in the treatment of bone tissue defects, they resort to filling them with an autograft, an allograft. The use of allografts used in clinical practice is not available to many medical institutions, due to the high cost, many of them are not registered in the state register of medicines, medical devices, this makes it difficult to use them in clinical practice in our country. From a clinical point of view, bone defects that need to be filled with grafts are large in size and a large amount of bone plastic material is required to fill them. The creation of a nanocellulose-based biocomposite designed to make up for bone tissue defects will solve the problem with the use of expensive bone-plastic preparations.

    Expected results

    A model of a tubular bone defect will be created in an in vivo experiment in rats. A method of transplantation of the prepared biocomposite based on nanocellulose in the formed models will also be developed. A security document will be obtained for the model of the tubular bone defect.

    Experimental and clinical data (temperature, weight, activity, wound) on the interaction of the biocomposite with bone tissue in the comparison groups will be obtained.

    X-ray data will be obtained (defect condition, degree of biocomposite lysis, periosteum condition) on the interaction of biocomposite with bone tissue in comparison groups.

    The biocomposite tolerance to infectious agents will be evaluated.

    A histological assessment of bone tissue rearrangement in the compared groups will be given. The results of a bone reaction to a nanocellulose-based biocomposite will be obtained.

    A comprehensive assessment of experimental-clinical, radiological, microbiological and histological data, the possibility of using a nanocellulose-based biocomposite will be given.

    Evaluation of X-ray changes during filling of bone defects with biocomposite in the studied groups in comparison with hemopollection

    All experimental animals underwent X-ray examination on the 14th, 30th and 60th days after surgery. The examination was performed under general anesthesia (zoletil 0.1 mg/kg, Virbac, USA) in the Veterinary Clinic of Traumatology and Orthopedics of Dr. Kryukov. Radiography was performed in two standard projections — straight and lateral.

    X-ray assessment of bone defect healing

    To quantify the dynamics of reparative osteogenesis, the Lane–Sandhu X-ray scale (Lane & Sandhu, 1987) was used, which is widely used and validated in experimental models of bone defect healing in small laboratory animals, including rats and mice (Tawonsawatruk et al., J Orthop Res, 2014; J Orthop Surg Res, 2025).

    Evaluation It was performed according to three key radiological criteria reflecting the successive stages of bone regeneration:

    1. bone marrow formation;
    2. severity of the defect line;
    3. The degree of bone remodeling.

    Each parameter was evaluated on a four—point scale (0-4 points), where 0 corresponded to the absence of signs of regeneration, and 4 - to the complete restoration of the anatomical structure and radiological bone density. The maximum total score was 12 points and corresponded to the completed X-ray healing of the defect.

    Principles of evaluation and interpretation of results

    The X-ray images were analyzed in a blind mode by two independent experts. For each animal, at each observation period (14, 30, and 60 days), scores were determined for all three criteria, followed by the calculation of the total score. The average values obtained were used for statistical comparison between the groups.

    Interpretation of the total score:

    • 0-3 points — absence of radiological signs of healing;
    • 4-7 points — partial fusion, callus formation, initial mineralization;
    • 8-10 points — pronounced osteogenesis with signs of remodeling;
    • 11-12 points — complete X-ray healing of the defect.

    X-ray examination results

    On the 14th day, signs of an early phase of repair were revealed in all the studied groups: clear contours of the bone edges of the defect were preserved, weakly expressed shadows of fibrous-osteoid tissue were visualized. At the same time, the most pronounced formation of periosteal calluses was noted in the MicroNOC group, which was reflected in slightly higher total scores on the Lane–Sandhu scale.

    By day 30, partial filling of the defect with osteoid tissue and a moderate decrease in the clarity of the defect line were observed in the Hemoplomb and MacroNSC groups. At the same time, in the MicroNSC group, the defect line was practically not visualized in most cases, which indicated the formation of mature bone marrow and more active mineralization of the regenerate.

    On the 60th day, a continuous bone structure with signs of pronounced remodeling and restoration of the cortical plate was formed in animals of the MICRONC group. In the Hemoplomb group, the reparative processes were moderate, whereas in the MacroNSC group, healing was slow and characterized by areas of heterogeneous radiological density.

    Figure 1. A. On day 30, the defect was closed by 50% in the hemopollection group, B. by less than 30% in the Macro NSC group, by 100% in the Micro NSC group; C. on day 60 in the hemopollection group and in the Micro NSC group, the defect was eliminated, closed by 100%, in the Macro NSC group – by 50%.

    Statistical analysis

    There were no statistically significant differences between the groups on day 14 (P₁, p₂, p₃ > 0.05), reflecting the similarity of the initial inflammatory-reparative phase of osteogenesis. On the 30th day, the indices of the MicroNNC group significantly exceeded the values of the Hemoplomb and MacroNNC groups (P₂, p₃ < 0.05). On day 60, statistically significant differences remained between microns and macrons (p < 0.01), as well as between microns and Hemoplomb (p < 0.05), which indicates a more pronounced consolidation and remodeling of bone when using a microdispersed nanocellulose composite.

    The X-ray data obtained are consistent with the results of the histological examination. The use of MICRONSCS was accompanied by more intensive bone marrow formation and subsequent remodeling, which indicates a pronounced osteoconductive and osteoinductive activity of the biocomposite during intramedullary localization. In the Hemoplomb group, repair proceeded according to the type of physiological bone healing with moderate osteogenesis activity. In the MacroNSC group, the slowdown in osteoreparative processes is probably due to a less uniform distribution of the material and a reduced degree of cellular infiltration.

    Based on the data obtained in vivo, forecasts of further application in clinical practice, in particular traumatology, transplantology, neurosurgery, will be given.

    Targeted synthesis of compounds with the potential antiviral and antimicrobial activities based on natural coumarins and their synthetic analogues

    AP19579011

    Objective: Synthesis of compounds with the heterocyclic and other pharmacophore fragments to further study their biological activity.

    Направленный синтез соединений с потенциальной противовирусной и антимикробной активностью на основе природных кумаринов и их синтетических аналогов

    Relevance

    Coumarins and their synthetic analogues with various chemical structures are very promising to synthesize the heterocyclic compounds with different structures. They have a wide range of the practically important pharmacological properties. More 2500 coumarin derivatives have been identified. They are isolated from the secondary metabolites found in green plants, fungi and bacteria. In the past decade, the pharmaceutical chemistry has been developing, and thus the creation of the new highly active hybrid derivatives based on the plant metabolites is of considerable interest. As a result, some new substances with the advanced biological activity compared to the original compounds have been synthesized. Referring to the literature, coumarins and their derivatives have the antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, anti-HIV, bronchodilator, antiulcer and anti-allergic activities.

    Therefore, the search for the new heterocyclic and other pharmacophore bioactive agents among the synthesized coumarin-based derivatives is a relevant direction. Thus, it represents a great prospect to develop the new effective drugs.

    Expected results:

    The effective technologies to isolate the pharmacological substances based on the available plant coumarins: umbelliferone, esculetin and others will be developed and proposed. During this project implementation, the reactions of the above mentioned coumarins and their synthetic analogues will be studied. The first synthesized compounds based on the studied coumarins will be tested for various types of the pharmacological activity (antimicrobial, antioxidant, cytotoxic and antiviral).

    As a result of this project implementation, among the synthesized coumarin derivatives, the most bioactive compounds to develop drugs with the desired pharmacological properties will be determined. Based on the modern methods, the pharmacological activity of the obtained compounds will be evaluated with further protection of the intellectual property.

    Identification of SARS-CoV-2 in nasal swabs with MALDI-MS and machine learning methods

    AP09259123

    Objective: To evaluate the rapid method for determining the SARS-CoV-2 virus in material obtained from a nasal smear using mass spectrometry and machine learning methods.

    Identification of SARS-CoV-2 in nasal swabs with MALDI-MS and machine learning methods

    Relevance

    Coronavirus infection, appeared in 2019, has become a challenge for humanity and for the health system in particular. The epidemic revealed many gaps in the organization of the diagnostic process, leading to the collapse of the laboratory service in the Republic of Kazakhstan during the periods of the highest incidence. To detect viral RNA in biomaterial, reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) is used. The detection of SARS-CoV-2 using RT-PCR tests is a highly accurate method, but the use of this diagnostic method is costly and time consuming.

    Our research team is proposing to evaluate a method for detecting SARS-CoV-2 in nasal swabs using matrix laser desorption / ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) and machine learning analysis. This approach uses equipment and skills that are routinely used in clinical laboratories. The biomaterial does not require preliminary sample preparation and expensive reagents. Thus, the proposed method for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 in material obtained from a nasal swab will become a more affordable and less time-consuming test than RT-PCR.

    Expected results

    Based on the results of the scientific research, we evaluated previously existing methods and also developed our own express method for detecting SARS-CoV-2 in biomaterials obtained from nasal swabs. This new approach in COVID-19 diagnostics has a potential socio-economic impact, resulting in reduced diagnostic search time, timely adequate treatment of critical conditions, shortened hospitalization periods, and consequently, reduced treatment costs. The implementation of the research will help reduce mortality rates and increase life expectancy.

    Obtaining information about new methods of early COVID-19 diagnosis will allow changes to be made to the diagnostic algorithm. This will be innovative not only within the Republic of Kazakhstan but also worldwide.

    The project implementation has been fully completed.

    The research team evaluated the performance of the insilico machine learning algorithm on combined data from South America and Kazakhstan and also trained their own ML models with the aim of differentiating samples with SARS-CoV-2. The SVM-R and DT models showed especially high performance, surpassing other models, with ROCAUC scores of 0.983 and 0.972, respectively. SVM-R is particularly effective in distinguishing samples from Kazakhstan, achieving an accuracy of 88.0% for SARS-CoV-2+, 95.0% for NCARI, and 78.0% for AC. The potential of MALDI MS as an innovative diagnostic tool for identifying various respiratory infections is emphasized, as well as the need for further optimization and validation of the MALDI MS/ML method before its integration into routine clinical practice, considering the changing epidemiological situation.

    The areas of application of the research results include: infectious diseases, clinical microbiology, laboratory diagnostics.

    Assessment of water, sanitation and hygiene situation in rural medical institutions of Karaganda region for effective response to COVID-19 pandemic

    AP09058465

    Objective: To develop recommendations to improve access to adequate water supply, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) in rural medical institutions to prevent and control COVID-19, improve the quality of health care and protect medical personnel.

    Оценка обеспеченности надлежащим водоснабжением, санитарией и гигиеной (ВСГ) в сельских медицинских учреждениях Карагандинской области для эффективного реагирования на пандемию COVID-19

    Relevance

    Outbreaks of infectious diseases and fatal epidemics will continue until WASH infrastructure and community hygiene skills improve. COVID-19 pandemic has confirmed this hypothesis, since hand hygiene is an important element in containing it. The lack of data on WASH services in medical institutions by region and on a nationwide scale is currently an obstacle to an effective response to the COVID-19 pandemic in Kazakhstan. An analysis of the situation with an up-to-date assessment of current WASH services will help develop recommendations for improving access to them and contribute to sustainable results in the fight against COVID-19 in rural medical institutions.

    Available research results indicate the presence and possibility of development of both early and long-term consequences of coronavirus infection, which necessitates further study of the pathogenetic mechanisms of development, prognostic markers of unfavorable outcome, features of clinical manifestations, and complications against the background of COVID-19.

    Expected results

    This project will assess the level of WASH in rural medical institutions according to the hierarchical ladder of WASH services proposed in Joint Monitoring Program (JMP) by the WHO and UNICEF, satisfaction of patients and staff with the current access to and quality of WASH services by district and season, and WASH biosafety by district. This type of assessment will help determine the starting point from which to move to achieve sustainable results in the fight against COVID-19, as well as compare the current situation and the progress being made between regions. Based on the findings, some recommendations will be developed to improve access to adequate WASH conditions for the prevention and control of COVID-19 and other infectious diseases in rural medical institutions. These recommendations will be used in the state policy concerning the access to rural health care and its quality, protection of patients and staff, and prevention of virus transmission. It will also help activate and elaborate the actions across a wide range of COVID-19 prevention and control initiatives and the response to healthcare emergencies. Thereby, it will increase resistance to other potentially pandemic infections and diseases to which rural people in developing countries may be exposed. Improving access to WASH services and the quality of services in medical institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic, which in turn will lead to improved health and quality of life and sustainable development of rural regions of the country, will provide both social and economic benefits.

    Pathogenetic significance of the structural-functional imbalance of a vascular system in the pulmo-cardio-renal continuum

    AP19676870

    Objective: is to study a structural and functional imbalance of the vascular system from the position of improving pathogenetic mechanisms of the pulmo-cardio-renal continuum.

    Патогенетическое значение структурно-функционального дисбаланса сосудистой системы в пульмо-кардио-ренальном континууме

    Relevance

    Diffuse lung lesions of infectious and non -infectious genesis are not local in nature, by affecting local homeostasis systems. They are irritative because of a neurohormonal activation, an oxidative stress, functional disorders leading to interorgan changes primarily in heart and kidneys. These mechanisms became especially clear during the COVID-19 pandemic, when a level of lung damage was correlated with a functional damage of myocardium and kidneys. But the fact that these reciprocal changes are only half the time reversible makes it more dramatic; furthermore, a progression of fibrosis and functional disorders turns into structural dysfunctions.

    Expected result

    is an improvement of the concept of pulmocardiorenal syndrome to identify key risk factors effectively, correct them, and prevent the transition to the symptomatic phase.

    The expected social and economic effect is to prevent medical and social losses from the development and/or progression of organ dysfunctions in a pool of patients with chronic lung diseases.

    A total of 150 patients with chronic lung diseases (CLD) (75 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and 75 patients with interstitial lung disease associated with systemic sclerosis (ILD-SS)) participated in a three-year longitudinal study. To study the clinical and functional parameters in individuals with CLD with and without chronic heart failure (CHF) and impaired renal function (IRF), all patients were divided into groups: group 1 (without CHF and without IRF), group 2 (with CHF without IRF), group 3 (with IRF without CHF) and group 4 (with CHF and with IRF). The assessment was carried out using a comprehensive approach, including clinical and functional tests (6-minute walk test (6MWT), spirometry, capnography, echocardioscopy (ECHOKS), heart rate variability (HRV)), instrumental methods (chest computed tomography (CT) and densitometry), biochemical markers (endothelin-1, galectin-3, NT-proBNP, MR-proANP, hsTnT, blood and urine creatinine, urine albumin, GFR, albumin-creatinine ratio, blood acid-base balance), and quality of life assessment were also assessed. Statistical analysis included correction for multiple comparisons (FDR) to minimize false-positive results.

    Analysis of the dynamics of four clinical groups showed the conditional development of two stages of the disease course. In the period 2023-2024, destabilization predominated: preservation of the initial phenotype was observed in only 60% of patients with COPD and in 54% with ILD-SS. Transitions from group 1 to more severe ones (development of CHF and/or IRF) were predominant. in 48% of patients with COPD and 56% of patients with ILD-SS), with a decrease in the proportion of patients without complications (in COPD from 36% to 9.5%, in ILD-SS from 33.3% to 3.4%). The key pattern of this period was the transition from group 2 to group 4 (27% in COPD and 32.5% in ILD-SS), which can likely be regarded as a cumulative increase in polymorbid conditions in the lung-heart-kidney relationship. In 2024–2025, stabilization was noted (87% of patients with COPD and 91.5% of patients with ILD-SS remained in the original groups), however, the number of patients in group 4 increased in the cohort structure (COPD to 49%; ILD-SS to 48.4%).

    There were no intragroup differences in quality of life (q> 0.68 for COPD; q>0.8 for ILD-SS), with consistently low indicators in all groups. The most pronounced impairments were recorded in the area of social support due to dyspnea and functional limitations. Internosologically, in group 2 (with CHF), patients with ILD-SS demonstrated better indicators of overall quality of life and self-perception (q<0.05), possibly due to differences in the perception of restrictive pathology. In group 4, the differences leveled out, with the exception of a trend towards better social well-being in ILD-SS (insignificant after FDR). The general trend is higher quality of life in ILD-SS, especially with cardiac comorbidity.

    Analysis of the dynamics of pulmonary profile indicators in patients with ILD-SS and COPD showed that both nosologies demonstrate an annual deterioration in pulmonary function and exercise tolerance, but along different trajectories of the continuum: in COPD, significantly worse functional parameters: lower oxygen saturation (SаO₂) before/after 6MWT, higher respiratory rate and dyspnea severity according to Borg, higher heart rate, lower FEV₁ and FVC (all differences are clinically significant, most are statistically significant after FDR); in ILD-SS, there is predominantly structural progression according to CT densitometry data with a decrease in lung volume and an increase in the density of the lung tissue parenchyma (less negative HU), especially in combined CHF + IFR (group 4), where this effect is preserved taking into account multiple comparisons. It should be noted that patients with ILD-SS initially had smaller lung volumes according to CT densitometry data compared to patients with COPD.

    Comparisons within nosological groups by subgroups with CHF and IFR are generally minimal and unstable after FDR; the functional status profile is similar, with typical signs of limited exercise tolerance (desaturation, increased RR/HR, increased dyspnea after 6MWT). In ILD-SS, there is a tendency toward worse indicators in group 4 (CHF+IFR), where higher blood lactate values, lower FEV₁/FVC, and a more frequent increase in RR were detected.

    Analysis of the dynamics of the cardiac profile showed that in COPD, HRV is stable regardless of comorbidity, with trends toward increased MR-proANP and NT-proBNP in groups 2 and 4 (q > 0.05 after FDR), indicating subclinical atrial strain. In ILD-SS, trends toward increased HF and decreased LF were observed in group 4 (loss of significance after FDR). Internosologically, in group 2, HF is higher in COPD (q=0.00), VLF is higher in ILD-SS (q=0.02); in group 4, the differences level out. Longitudinal dynamics: decrease in TP and HF by 2025, increase in NT-proBNP, hsTnT and MR-proANP (higher in ILD-SS), moderate decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction (LV EF) and increase in pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP, significantly higher in COPD, q≈0.033). Natriuretic peptides are sensitive markers of subclinical dysfunction; restrictive pathology increases atrial load, obstructive pathology increases pulmonary hypertension.

    An analysis of the nephrological profile revealed that in Group 4, patients with CHF and NF-C had consistent differences in the increase in blood creatinine, urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio, and decrease in GFR, even after adjusting for multiple comparisons in both nosologies. Internosological comparisons revealed the following trend: in Groups 2 and 4, patients with COPD had statistically significantly higher blood creatinine values and a decrease in GFR, without any changes in kidney structure according to CT densitometry. Moreover, the annual GFR decline was approximately 6%. In patients with ILD-SS, the baseline SCF level was lower, but the annual GFR decline was more gradual, at 3%. A similar trend was also observed for the albumin-to-creatinine ratio.

    Analysis of the dynamics of changes in galectin-3 and endothelin-1 levels in patients with ILD-SS revealed an increasing trend in groups 3 and 4, which was lost thereafter. A comparative analysis of these markers between the two nosologies showed that galectin-3 was higher in patients with ILD-SS, especially in group 4 (p=0.04, q=0.10), while endothelin-1 was higher in patients with COPD. Correlation analysis revealed positive associations between endothelin-1 and the cardiac subprofile C3 in patients with COPD, and between galectin-3 and the pulmonary subprofiles R1, R7, and R9–R11 in patients with ILD-SS. Negative correlations of endothelin-1 with SaO₂ and lung volumes emphasize vasoconstriction in hypoxemia. The dynamics of changes in the profiles showed that the pulmonary profile had minimal internosological differences (|Cliff’s δ| ≤ 0.07; q ≥ 0.64), with a tendency to worsen in COPD; the cardiology profile had initially low indicators in ILD-SS (δ ≈ 0.26–0.27; q ≈ 0.04–0.05), which somewhat leveled out in the dynamics by 2025; the nephrology profile was initially worse in ILD-SS (δ ≈ 0.68–0.69; q ≈ 0), but by 2025 there was a more negative dynamics in patients with COPD. The dynamics by subprofiles demonstrated the same trajectories: in COPD — inflammatory-endothelial deviations, especially in nephrology indicators by 2025; In ILD-SS, a fibro-dominant pattern is observed. Correlations between profiles are low, indicating domain autonomy.

    Thus, the obtained results support the hypothesis of vascular imbalance as a key factor: endothelin-1 is an indicator of vascular-cardiac stress (predominant in COPD, exacerbating hypertension and hypoxemia); galectin-3 is a marker of fibrosis and functional limitations (relevant in ILD-SS, exacerbating restrictive changes). Comorbidity (CHF/IFR) amplifies the imbalance, promoting the progression of the pulmonary-cardiorenal continuum through inflammation, hypoxia, and remodeling.

    Field of Application: Medical organizations and medical education institutions.

    The impact of the obtained results on the development of the main research area and related fields of science and technology: achieving the project's goal will help develop an understanding of the key mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of vascular dysfunction within the pulmonary-cardiorenal continuum, which could improve the early diagnosis and treatment of organ damage. Improving the pathogenetic mechanisms underlying the development of organ dysfunction within the pulmonary-cardiorenal continuum could enable an effective search for solutions to prevent adverse outcomes and reduce the socioeconomic burden of disease.

    Potential for the use of the results: The developed pulmonary-cardiorenal continuum model enables physicians to conduct risk stratification and personalized management of patients with COPD and ILD-SS. The data have been implemented in clinical practice at three medical organizations. Three intellectual property rights (models and algorithms) have been obtained, confirming the high practical potential. Publications in Scopus and KOKSNVO journals ensure scientific representativeness, and the results can be used in the development of clinical guidelines and educational programs.

    Implementation status: Research results have been implemented in practical healthcare at the Regional Clinical Hospital of the Healthcare Institution of the Karaganda Region (3 implementation certificates dated October 3, 2025), Karaganda Polyclinic No. 15 (3 implementation certificates dated October 2, 2025), and in the educational process at the Department of Internal Medicine of the Karaganda State Autonomous Okrug (3 implementation certificates dated October 3, 2025).

    Prognostic significance of bacterial translocation markers as predictors of infectious and inflammatory complications in acute mechanical bowel obstruction

    AP09260597

    Objective: The aim is to determine the diagnostic and prognostic significance of bacterial translocation as the complications development’s predictor in patients with acute bowel obstruction of tumor and non-tumor origin by assessing the relationship of LBP, sCD-14 in the systemic circulation with the detection of microorganism genes in mesenteric lymph nodes.

    Prognostic significance of bacterial translocation markers as predictors of infectious and inflammatory complications in acute mechanical bowel obstruction

    Relevance

    Based on changes in bacterial translocation biomarkers in the blood serum, it’s suggested that patients with researched pathology can be stratified according to the risk level of developing infectious and inflammatory complications. It will be possible to take preventive measures to reduce the frequency and severity of these complications and mortality. This method will be a reliable, quick and less expensive, without need for invasive collection of Mesenteric lymph nodes and detection of 16s rRNA. It will be possible to revise the criteria for the diagnosis “sepsis” in these patients: a high level of bacterial translocation biomarkers, the presence of systemic inflammatory response syndrome and organ dysfunction, will allow early diagnosis of sepsis even without an obvious focus of infection.

    Expected results

    New information will be obtained on the mechanisms of the bacterial translocation development in patients with colon tumors, the effectiveness of tests for the detection of bacterial translocation will be established, ways of their rational use for scientific and practical purposes will be proposed, innovative methods will be introduced in scientific research, practical care, and medical education

    Development of innovative molecular technologies for the diagnosis and effectiveness of the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension in preschool children

    AP14871767

    Objective: To develop innovative molecular technologies for diagnosing and evaluating the effectiveness of treating pulmonary arterial hypertension in preschool children

    Разработка инновационных молекулярных технологий диагностики и эффективности лечения легочной артериальной гипертензии у детей дошкольного возраста

    Relevance

    According to the International Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) Registry, 88% of reported cases of PH in children are pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) associated with congenital heart disease (CHD)

    The relevance of this problem is determined not only by high mortality among newborns, but also by a high level of disability in subsequent periods of children's lives, which dictates the need for early diagnosis of PAH and timely surgical correction in this pathology

    At the present stage, both diagnosis and differential diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension in children with CHD is not possible without the use of special research methods. Along with such methods as echocardiography, chest x-ray, right heart catheterization, which are used to reliably confirm PH in children, early markers of the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension are required in the work of the clinician

    Expected results:

    Innovative molecular technologies for clinical and laboratory diagnostics will be developed based on the determination in the blood of children with CHD of indicators of the serotonin system involved in the pathogenesis of PAH: serotonin, its metabolite 5-HIAA, serotonin membrane transporter, serotonin 5-HT2a receptors.

    The parameters of the serotonin system in children with congenital heart disease complicated by PAH were studied before and after surgical correction: the number of platelets in the blood and their characteristics (average platelet volume, coefficient of variation of platelets by volume, thrombocrit), concentration of serotonin in blood plasma and platelets, serotonin metabolite 5 -hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) in blood plasma, urine and platelets; the serotonin transporter SERT in platelets and the level of 5-HT2A receptors for serototonin in platelets. A statistical analysis of the obtained data was carried out. Serotonin concentration in platelets was three times higher in children with PAH compared to the control group. In patients with severe PAH, serotonin concentration decreased by 20% after surgical treatment, suggesting serotonin s role in PAH development and pulmonary vessel remodeling. Urine tests for 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) showed a 20-fold increase in patients with CHD, which decreased after surgical treatment. Regression analysis revealed a significant correlation between plasma 5-HIAA levels and estimated mean pulmonary arterial pressure. The study demonstrated that serotonin transporter (SERT) was significantly increased in platelets of children with CHD and decreased after surgical correction. Correlation analysis revealed significant relationships between SERT, 5-HT2A, and 5-HIAA levels in platelets, indicating the involvement of the serotonin system in PAH development.

    Based on the results obtained:Scientific supervisor Mindubayeva F.A. at the XXIV Congress of the Physiological Society named after. I.P. Pavlova (September 11-15, 2023, St. Petersburg) participated with a report on the topic “The influence of excess serotonin in the embryonic period of ontogenesis on the activity of the membrane serotonin transporter in early postnatal ontogenesis.”

    Scientific supervisor of the project Mindubaeva F.A. and PhD student Ospanova M.D. took part in the 34th European Pediatrics Conference (Zurich, Switzerland, October 9-10, 2023) with the presentation “Study of serotonin metabolism in children with congenital heart defects.”

    Target consumers are first of all, parents of children with CHD, who, already at the initial pilot stage of the application of this technology, will be ready to conduct an examination through private clinical diagnostic centers The proposed diagnostic method can be introduced into the standards for examining preschool children and will be in demand in clinical diagnostic centers.

    Development of technology for new dental therapeutic and prophylactic agents that inhibit the formation of Streptococcus mutans biofilm based on domestic plant raw materials

    AP23488250

    Purpose: to develop a technology for obtaining domestic herbal therapeutic and prophylactic agents that inhibit the formation of Streptococcus mutans biofilm

    Development of technology for new dental therapeutic and prophylactic agents that inhibit the formation of Streptococcus mutans biofilm based on domestic plant raw materials

    Relevance

    According to a report by the World Health Organization for 2022, almost 3.5 billion people in the world face oral diseases. In addition, about 2 billion people in the world suffer from caries of permanent teeth, as well as almost 530 million children are exposed to caries of baby teeth. Thus, it is expected that the increasing prevalence of oral diseases will contribute to the growth of demand in the market for dental infection control products worldwide.

    Dental caries is an expensive biofilm—related infectious disease caused by Streptococcus mutans that affects most of the world's population. It has been established that this bacterium is the main caries-causing bacterium that causes tooth decay in 60-80% of children and 100% of the adult population. Streptococcus mutans is an impotent pathogen and a common cause of oral infections such as dental caries. Streptococcus mutans effectively uses dietary sucrose to synthesize a large number of exopolysaccharides, which play an important role in the accumulation, adhesion and formation of the plaque matrix of microorganisms. These processes in most cases lead to serious infections. The ability of a microorganism to form a biofilm on the surface of the host tissue is an important stage in the development of infection. Thus, limiting the population of Streptococcus mutans or reducing biofilm formation are methods of caries prevention.

    Natural products derived from medicinal plants have proven to be a rich source of biologically active compounds, and many of them have served as the basis for the development of new dental therapeutic and prophylactic agents. With regard to diseases caused by microorganisms, the growing resistance of many common pathogens to currently used therapeutic agents such as antibiotics and antiviral agents has led to renewed interest in the discovery of new antibacterial herbal remedies.

    The practical significance of the project is due to the country's need to introduce a new generation of natural therapeutic and dental products with high antimicrobial activity and inhibiting the formation of Streptococcus mutans biofilm.

    Expected results

    Samples of extracts, essential oils, isolated and identified individual compounds inhibiting the formation of Streptococcus mutans biofilm will be selected; anatomical, morphological and histochemical studies will be performed for selected plants; expression of genes encoding glucan-binding protein B (gbpB), glucosyltransferase B, -C, -D (gtfB, -C, -D) and F-ATPase (atpD, atpF), which will be evaluated using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-cPCR).

    Formulations and technologies of new dental products with anti-caries and antimicrobial properties will be developed for the first time, and their experimental batches will be developed.

    Draft regulatory documents will be developed regulating the quality of dental gel and film in accordance with the requirements of the State Budget of the Republic of Kazakhstan and therapeutic and prophylactic toothpastes and mouthwashes in accordance with the requirements of the technical regulations of the Customs Union TR CU 009/2011.

    Microscopic and histochemical examination of the aboveground organs of Mentha arvensis, Mentha piperita, Galatella punctata, Achillea micrantha was performed.

    Plant extracts have been isolated and developed by ultrasonic and microwave extraction of Tatar honeysuckle, changeable ferula, Dzhungarian ferula, Scots pine, narrow-leaved willow tea, common yarrow. Essential oils from Asian yarrow, large-flowered hyssop, Scots pine, doubtful hyssop, ziziphora odoriferous have been isolated and their chemical compositions have been identified by GC-MS method. The main ones are mono- and sesquiterpenoids such as pulegon, eucalyptol, pinene, borneol, hamazulene and bornyl acetate, etc.

    Molecules of borneol, caffeic, rosemary, ferulic and gallic acids were isolated and identified by spectral methods.

    The chemical composition of phenolic compounds of extracts of Tatar honeysuckle, changeable ferula, Dzhungarian ferula, Scots pine, narrow-leaved willow tea was studied using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in combination with an ultraviolet detector (UV) and tandem real-time mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS).

    The collection of raw materials (Mentha arvensis, Mentha piperita, Galatella punctata, Achillea micrantha, Salvea dumentosa, Ferula varia, Ferula joongarica, etc.) was carried out in August 2024 on the territory of the Karaganda region. All samples of raw materials have been verified and identified by species, dried, crushed and prepared for extraction and isolation of individual compounds.

    Extracts of Salvia stepposa (40% ethanol), Ferula soongarica (70% ethanol), Ferula varia (70% ethanol), as well as caffeic and ferulic acids exhibit full or almost complete (98-100%) inhibitory activity against the development of Streptococcus mutans biofilm

    Inhibitory activity of 40% ethanol extract of Salvia stepposa (5, 7.5, 10 mg/ml), Prunella vulgaris gel with carbopol (5 mg/ml), 70% ethanol extract of Ferula soongarica (1, 2.5, 5 mg/ml), 70% ethanol extract of Ferula varia (1, 2.5, 5 mg/ml), 70% ethanol extract of Chamerion angustifolium (5, 7.5 mg/ml), extract of Potentilla bifurca (5 mg/ml), carbon dioxide extract of Scabiosa (2.5, 5 mg/ml), extract of Xanthium strumarium (7.5, 10 mg/ml), rosemary acid (5 mg/mlml), caffeic acid (5 mg/ml) and ferulic acid (7.5, 10 mg/ml) is significantly higher compared to the corresponding concentrations of DMSO.

    As part of the study, experiments were conducted to analyze the expression of the gyrB, YycFG and MecA genes in Streptococcus mutans microorganisms under the influence of plant substances: rosemary acid, chlorogenic acid, ferulic acid and borneol. Each of these substances has demonstrated a pronounced suppressive effect on the expression of target genes, which indicates the potential effectiveness of these substances in inhibiting the processes associated with the formation and stability of biofilms. In the future, an analysis using the ΔΔCt (delta delta Ct) method will be performed to quantify changes in the level of gene expression compared to the control group.

    The field of application of the expected results is pharmaceutical production technology, pharmaceutical chemistry and chemistry of natural compounds.

    The target consumers of the expected results are pharmaceutical and dental companies, pharmacies, supermarkets and shops.

    The results of the project in the near future may have a scientific and technical effect, in the long term - social and economic effects in reducing the risk of caries and inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity in humans.

    Purpose: to conduct preclinical studies of a new drug based on dry extract of sage steppe taking into account the requirements of GLP.

    Preclinical studies of a new medicinal product based on steppe sage

    Relevance

    To date, herbal remedies are in direct competition with synthetic drugs. However, phytomedicines can be attributed to safe and effective drugs due to the optimal combination of biological activity of compounds of plant origin, low and in most cases absent toxic effects on the body, unlike synthetic drugs. Over the past 30 years, intensively developed means based on plant raw materials containing phenylpropanoids (mainly rosmarinic acid) because of their low toxicity and a wide range of biological effects. In this regard, plant phenylpropanoids have prospects for the creation of import-substituting drugs with antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and many other types of activity.

    Species of the genus Sage are superproducers of phenolpropanoids and rosmarinic acid. Steppe sage (Salvia stepposa Des.-Schost), growing in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Salvia stepposa Des.-Schost is a non-pharmacopoeial type of raw materials, therefore it is not used by domestic manufacturers for the production of medicines based on sage. All medicines on the pharmaceutical market of Kazakhstan are produced from sage (Salvia officinallis), the area of growth of which is outside the Republic of Kazakhstan. In this regard, there is a problem in the form of import dependence on raw materials from foreign suppliers, which can cause stoppages and instability in the production process of obtaining medicines based on this type of raw materials. The main idea of the proposed project is to conduct preclinical studies of a new drug based on wild-growing raw materials of the Republic of Kazakhstan, which is a dry extract of sage steppe leaves, which has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial effect, with the purpose of its subsequent use for the treatment of diseases of the upper respiratory tract. The project is aimed at the development of the pharmaceutical industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the practical significance of the work is the introduction of a new phytomedicine from domestic raw materials into the practice of health care by passing the phase of preclinical testing, which will later move to phase I clinical trials.

    Expected results

    Raw materials will be procured, conformity of the obtained plant extract to the regulatory requirements of the State Pharmacopoeia of the Republic of Kazakhstan (SPK), harmonized with the European Pharmacopoeia and the draft ND, developed earlier in the framework of the PhD thesis, will be assessed. Pharmaceutical-technological parameters of raw materials important for the extraction process will be evaluated. A draft monograph on sage steppe leaves will be developed for further registration and introduction into the GF RK. The presence of biologically active groups of phenolic acids and flavonoids in the dry extract was determined and their quantitative measurement was carried out.

    Tablets based on the dry extract of sage steppe containing rosmarinic acid in a major amount will be developed. Preclinical studies of tablets based on dry extract of sage steppe will be conducted on animals in vivo under GLP. The safety, efficacy and quality of the tablets will be evaluated.

    The object of the study is tablets based on steppe sage. Tablets based on dry extract of steppe sage were developed through primary collection of raw materials, identification, production of dry extract of steppe sage in an amount sufficient to obtain tablets and assessment of the quality of the obtained materials.

    The technological and pharmaceutical parameters of raw material quality have been studied. The required number of dry sage extract samples for obtaining tablets has been produced. Quality control has been carried out in accordance with ND.

    The total content of phenolic acids and flavonoids and rosmarinic acid in the extract has been determined quantitatively. The content of polyphenolic compounds in the dry sage extract has been analyzed, in terms of gallic acid and rutin. Using the HPLC-MS/MS method, it has been established that the dry sage extract contains in major quantities and amounts to 6.092%. It was possible to identify caffeic acid, cynaroside, and apigenin.

    The required number of tablet samples based on the dry sage extract for preclinical trials has been produced. 200 tablets have been obtained from the dry extract of sage leaves. The quality control of the obtained tablets was carried out in accordance with the requirements of the State Pharmacopoeia of the Republic of Kazakhstan for the following parameters: average tablet weight, mass homogeneity, appearance, disintegration, crush resistance, abrasion. The total content of phenolic acids and flavonoids and rosmarinic acid in the tablets was determined quantitatively. The content of polyphenolic compounds in the obtained tablets was analyzed in terms of gallic acid and rutin. Analysis of tablets by HPLC-MS/MS containing dry extract of sage showed the presence of rosmarinic acid. A quantitative determination of the content of rosmarinic acid in the tablets was carried out, which amounted to 0.41% based on the weight of the tablet.

    The above-ground part of sage was collected for further production of tablets weighing 2 kg. Identification, drying, separation of organs and grinding of raw materials were carried out.

    A draft monograph on herbal medicinal raw materials was developed to simplify the further procedure for registration and inclusion of this type of raw material in the State Pharmacopoeia of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In accordance with the requirements of the Order of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated November 5, 2020 No. ҚР ДСМ-183/2020 "On approval of the rules for the development, registration, coordination, approval and introduction of amendments and additions to the State Pharmacopoeia of the Republic of Kazakhstan".

    Studies were conducted to investigate the general toxic and antioxidant effects in vitro of tablets based on dry extract of steppe sage.

    The general toxic effect in vitro was assessed as part of a study of the cytotoxicity of tablets containing dry extract of steppe sage, conducted using three methods on Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the protozoa species Ciliphora amoebina, and Artemia salina. The results of the experiment in three different studies confirm the absence of cytotoxic effects of the tablets on the above-mentioned test objects using the in vitro method. The results of screening the antioxidant activity of tablets containing dry extract of steppe sage, conducted using the FRAP and DPPH methods, showed an increase in optical density values compared to the control. This indicates an increase in the reducing potential and the presence of antioxidant activity of the developed tablets. It has been previously established that the highest antioxidant activity of the extract is observed at a concentration of 0.75 mg/ml (according to FRAP data), and pronounced antiradical activity is observed at a concentration of 12.5 mg/ml (according to the results of the DPPH test). Considering that each tablet contains 50 mg of extract under standard dissolution conditions (in a volume of gastric contents of about 50–100 ml), concentrations comparable or close to those effective in vitro tests are achieved. Thus, when the tablet is completely dissolved in 50 ml of medium, the extract concentration will be 1 mg/ml, which exceeds the effective level for antioxidant activity (0.75 mg/ml). Previous tests of the anti-inflammatory activity of the extract contained in the tablets under study at a dosage of 50 mg showed that the drug exhibits pronounced anti-inflammatory properties. It has been established that the anti-inflammatory activity of the tablets is due to the action of the extract. The data obtained confirm that the drug has its own anti-inflammatory activity, comparable to the action of the original plant extract, in terms of extract weight.

    The scope of application of the expected results is experimental pharmacology, medicinal chemistry.

    The target consumers of the expected results are research organizations engaged in clinical trials, pharmaceutical companies, and the population of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

    Opportunities will be presented to influence the development of science and technology, as the mechanisms of action of a new herbal remedy in the body that does not cause allergic and cumulative reactions will be revealed. Preclinical studies will be important for specialists involved in the production of herbal remedies and the study of their safety. The results of the project will be used in the educational process on pharmaceutical production technology and pharmacology.

    «Studying the effectiveness of using serum biomarkers and transcranial doppler ultrasound in the early diagnosis of acute cerebrovascular diseases»

    AP23490807

    Purpose: Studying the effectiveness of the use of microRNAs and serum metabolites associated pathophysiologically with excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, the tryptophan-kynurenine axis and neuroinflammation in the early diagnosis of acute cerebrovascular diseases, to develop a panel of early diagnostic biomarkers, in comparison with instrumental diagnostics.

    Study of the effectiveness of using blood serum biomarkers and transcranial dopplerography in the early diagnosis of acute cerebrovascular diseases

    Relevance

    Acute cerebrovascular disease is a condition requiring emergency medical intervention and includes ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke. According to statistics on the global burden of stroke, 12.2 million cases of acute cerebrovascular accident (ACVA) were reported in 2019. Stroke is the world's leading cause of disability and the third leading cause of death. Despite the continuous development of methods for diagnosing and treating acute cerebrovascular diseases, the effectiveness remains at a relatively low level. The reason for this situation is the lack of time to make an accurate diagnosis, since neurological symptoms do not always accurately reflect the presence or absence of an acute cerebral catastrophe, as well as the pathogenetic features of stroke. Acute development of general cerebral and focal neurological symptoms can occur in many other conditions, such as migraine aura, Todd's palsy, tumor of the central nervous system, cerebral venous thrombosis, multiple sclerosis, chronic cerebral ischemia, etc. Verification of the diagnosis is currently carried out using computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, the first signs of brain damage can be visualized using CT data only 3-6 hours after the onset of symptoms, and in 20% of cases they give false negative results. At the same time, pathogenetic therapy for cerebral ischemia (thrombolytic therapy) is possible by intravenous administration in the first 3-4.5 hours from the moment the first symptoms of a stroke appear; for intra-arterial thrombolysis, this time period increases to 6.5 hours. Transcranial Doppler sonography is one of the most effective means of diagnosing stroke, but sensitivity varies widely depending on a number of reasons (from 40 to 60%), which requires further careful study. In order to improve the diagnosis verification procedure in the shortest possible time, the modern world is continuously searching for biomarkers with high sensitivity and specificity. To date, at least 518 biomarkers have been studied, including 203 proteins, 114 genes, 108 metabolites and 88 transcripts [10]. RNA-based biomarkers have the most promising potential in the early diagnosis and differential diagnosis of stroke, and may provide new insights into the mechanism of stroke, and form the basis of more effective treatments. Early studies with a 22-gene panel had a sensitivity of 78% and a specificity of 80% for the diagnosis of ischemic stroke. Currently, a combination of four to five RNAs has a diagnostic accuracy of up to 0.986 in the study population. At the same time, the results of a metabolic profile study also have a sensitivity and specificity of more than 90%. However, due to limitations in the studies (design features and small sample size), further study of serum biomarkers for early diagnosis of acute cerebrovascular diseases is necessary. Main approaches to conducting research: within the framework of this project, the main attention is paid to the study of the object as an integral system in order to highlight the complex processes that comprise it, identify the types of connections between them and combine them into a single whole.

    Expected result

    The study plans to develop a highly sensitive and highly specific panel of biomarkers for the early diagnosis of acute cerebrovascular diseases. As point-of-care testing technology advances, it may be possible to further use the resulting panel of biomarkers to provide results within 5–20 minutes of blood collection. Also, the obtained data on pathogenetic changes in acute stroke will improve the provision of care and create the prerequisites for significant correction of existing diagnostic and treatment protocols. The method of transcranial Doppler ultrasound, which is included in the diagnostic and treatment protocols of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan, but is not routinely used due to low awareness of staff about diagnostic capabilities, will be introduced into the practical activities of the stroke department.

    The study groups for subsequent instrumental, laboratory, and statistical testing have been formed: 200 participants, in accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The ischemic stroke group included 50 patients, the hemorrhagic stroke group included 50 patients, the TIA group included 50 patients, and the control group included 50 patients.

    Venous blood samples were collected to determine biomarkers in the study groups (the ischemic stroke group included 50 patients, the hemorrhagic stroke group included 50 patients, and the TIA group included 50 patients). Blood samples were collected twice, 3-4.5 hours and 12 hours apart, and once in the control group (50 participants). Blood plasma was isolated by centrifugation. The collected plasma samples were transferred to specialized labeled containers and stored in deep freeze until subsequent stages (for further chromatographic analysis to determine metabolite levels and PCR analysis of microRNA parameters according to the schedule). Data were collected from patient records (CT/MRI of the brain, complete blood count, coagulation profile) in the study groups.

    Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography was completed in the study groups (ischemic stroke (IS) group - 50 patients, hemorrhagic stroke (HS) group - 50 patients, TIA group - 50 patients, control group - 50 patients), identifying characteristic parameters. Blood flow velocity (V ps) parameters in the IS group showed significant decreases in the affected circulation, while in the TIA group, a moderate decrease in the affected circulation was observed. HS parameters were normal or decreased depending on the affected vessel and its severity, while in the control group, parameters were within the normal range. The pulsatility index (PI) showed the most significant changes in the ischemic stroke group, normal or elevated values in the ischemic stroke and TIA groups, and within the normal range in the control group.

    A chromatographic study of the metabolite levels of amino acids (Glutamate, Glutamine, Tyrosine, Phenylalanine, Valine, Lysine, Arginine, and Tryptophan) was conducted in 200 subjects (50 patients with ischemic stroke, 50 control patients, 50 patients with PI, and 50 patients with TIA).

    The most pronounced changes were observed in ischemic stroke, reflecting the activation of amino acid catabolism and the development of metabolic stress. A group of patients with ischemic stroke

    In the first hours of the disease (portion A), elevated levels of valine (29.9 ± 8.4 μmol/L), phenylalanine (18.3 ± 5.7 μmol/L), and glutamate (1.03 ± 0.70 μmol/L) were observed compared to the control group (valine - 22.1 ± 6.3 μmol/L, phenylalanine - 13.5 ± 3.2 μmol/L, glutamate - 0.95 ± 0.29 μmol/L).

    After 12 hours (portion B), valine levels decreased moderately (to 26.8 ± 7.4 μmol/L), while tryptophan (17.1 ± 4.8 μmol/L) and arginine (0.37 ± 0.34 μmol/L) showed a tendency to increase compared to baseline values (tryptophan - 16.3 ± 4.7 μmol/L, arginine - 0.35 ± 0.45 μmol/L).

    Amino acid spectrum changes in TIA were less pronounced. Concentrations of most amino acids remained close to control values, with no significant changes between portions A and B.

    A slight decrease in glutamate (from 1.02 ± 0.59 to 0.88 ± 0.47 μmol/L) and a more significant decrease in arginine (from 0.42 ± 0.91 to 0.24 ± 0.20 μmol/L) were observed, which may indicate the short duration of ischemia and the absence of significant and prolonged energy deficit.

    Hemorrhagic Stroke Patient Group

    For patients with hemorrhagic stroke, amino acid concentrations were generally closer to control values.

    Average levels of valine (22.3 ± 5.4 → 21.1 ± 5.7 μmol/L), glutamate (0.68 ± 0.23 → 0.67 ± 0.25 μmol/L), and phenylalanine (14.5 ± 2.4 → 14.6 ± 3.4 μmol/L) remained relatively stable over time. A slight increase in tryptophan (from 12.4 ± 3.8 to 13.5 ± 4.0 μmol/L) can be considered a response to oxidative stress and activation of the kynurenine pathway.

    In the control group, amino acid concentrations remained within physiological limits.

    The work will be continued.

    A partial PCR study of microRNA levels was conducted. Total free RNA was isolated from 74 clinical samples (24 control group samples, 26 IS patient samples, 12 HS patient samples, and 12 TIA patient samples). Following RNA isolation, 72 high-quality samples underwent reverse transcription and preamplification. Next, quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) analysis of 10 microRNAs (hsa-let-7e-5p, hsa-miR-16-5p, hsa-miR-21-5p, hsa-miR-106b-5p, hsa-miR-107, hsa-miR-125a-5p, hsa-miR-125b-5p, hsa-miR-130a-3p, hsa-miR-143-3p, and hsa-miR-222-3p) was performed in 60 samples using hsa-miR-16-5p.

    This work will be continued.

    A panel of early cerebral ischemia biomarkers based on serum metabolites will be proposed. This panel can be used in hospitals in the Republic of Kazakhstan equipped with the appropriate laboratory equipment upon admission of patients with acute cerebrovascular diseases. Research laboratories will be involved in the further development of rapid tests.

    Analysis of the molecular and genetic mechanisms of endurance in athletes with effective results in sports activities

    AP23490397

    Purpose: To analyze the molecular-genetic mechanisms of endurance in athletes with effective results of sports activities

    Analysis of the molecular and genetic mechanisms of endurance in athletes with effective results in sports activities

    Relevance

    Sports success is influenced by many genetically determined factors, including transcriptomic (gene expression in various cells), biochemical, histological, anthropometric, physiological, and psychological features, as well as general health status. A dominant share (66%) of the differences in athletes’ status can be explained by genetic factors, while the remaining difference is attributed to environmental factors, such as targeted training, nutrition, ergogenic aids with adaptation to training loads, place of birth, and access to medical and social support. Sports genetics, with the identification of DNA polymorphisms linked to athletic performance, is an actively developing area of science. The polygenic association approach is currently considered the most effective method for identifying genetic markers associated with sports characteristics.

    Expected results

    Achieving the project's goal will help to form an understanding of the key mechanisms of endurance in the presence of genetic polymorphisms in athletes with achievements in sports activities. The study of the genetic and physiological mechanisms of endurance under constant physical exertion will allow for an effective search for solutions to achieve athletic results.

    Agreements were drawn up and signed with third-party organizations (InVivo, OLYMP) to conduct laboratory tests according to the grant project schedule. Gene polymorphisms are identified based on 100 collected genetic analyses in athletes of the Karaganda region. The database of sports achievements is filled in for 100 athletes who signed informed consent to be included in the study (hockey players, football players, handball players and martial artists, of which 30% are masters of sports, 60% are candidates for master of sports).

    A literature review on gene polymorphisms in sports genomics was compiled from the Scopus and Web of Science databases for the period of 10 years (2014-2024). More than 1.5 thousand articles were found on the key designations of known gene polymorphisms associated with physical activity parameters in sports determined in clinical laboratories. We selected 50 sources, original articles, and meta-analytical reviews that are cited at least 5 times for this topic review. A database was created for 100 athletes (mean age 23.29±7.39 years) Karaganda region, who signed an informed consent to participate in the study to fill in data on gene polymorphisms (ACE RS4341, ACTN3 rs1815739, ADRB2 RS1042713, ADRB2 RS1042714, AGT rs699, AGTR2 rs11091046, AMPD1 RS17602729, APOE9358 rs429358, AQP RS1049305, BDKRB2 rs1799722, CKM rs8111989, COL1A1 rs1800012, COL5A1 rs12722, COMT rs4680, CYP1A1 rs762551, G6PC2 rs560887, GBF1 RS2273555, GDF5 rs143383, GSTM1 GSTM1, GSTT1 GSTT1, HFE RS1799945, HIF1A rs11549465, IGF1 rs35767, IL6 rs1800795, KCNJ11 rs5219, MCT1 RS1049434, MTH-FR31 rs1801131, MTH-FR33 rs1801133, NOS3 RS2070744, eNOS RS1799983, PPARA rs4253778, PPARG rs1801282, PPARG-C1A rs8192678, SOD rs4880, TRHR rs16892496, UCP2 rs660339, UCP3 rs1800849, VDR rs731236, VEGFA rs2010963, VEGFR2 rs1870377, ADRB3 rs4994, FABP2 rs1799883, FTO rs9939609, MC4R rs17782313, TCF7L2 rs12255372, TNF rs1800629, HLA-DQA1 RS2187668, LCT RS4988235, CRP RS1205, IL6R RS2228145, NRF RS7181866, MSTN rs1805086).

    Advanced training in the field of sports medicine was obtained on the basis of the 1st Sechenov Moscow State Medical University of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation at the courses "Bioimpedance study of body composition" (Rybalkina D. Kh.), "Echocardiography in sports" (Bekov E. K.), "Sports nutrition" (Dyusembayeva N. K.).

    The analysis of the relationship of gene polymorphism with sports achievements is carried out according to literature sources, a database is formed and filled in for 100 athletes taken into the study, based on their portfolio of achievements (year of receiving the category, title of cmc, ms, number of games in competitions of national and international levels, number of victories in competitions of national and international levels, number of goals scored goals, pucks). The database of athletes ' laboratory tests (UAC, CRP, ALT, AST, lactate, total protein, direct bilirubin, total bilirubin, urea, creatinine, glucose, total cholesterol, ionized calcium, testosterone, insulin, vitamin D) is filled in.

    100 athletes are being examined during rest and physical activity (spirography, heart rate variability, bioimpedance measurement, densitometry, echocardiography) to assess the remodeling of the respiratory and cardiovascular systems during physical exertion, body composition.

    It was found that 33.33% of athletes demonstrated a slight increase in forced vital capacity (FVC) according to the GLI-2012 Z-score, which objectively confirms a high level of physical fitness and adaptive remodeling of the respiratory system. These values exceed the average reference values for the general population and correlate with the athletic performance of the examined athletes. A statistically significant association was identified between the AGTR2 gene polymorphism and vital lung capacity (VC) (p = 0.028). Carriers of the C/C genotype exhibited higher vital capacity values compared with carriers of the A/A genotype, representing a novel finding and confirming the genetic determination of the adaptive potential of the respiratory system in athletes.

    Adaptive remodeling of the cardiovascular system in athletes was assessed using the integral index of regulatory systems activity (PARS). The mean PARS value was 3.92 ± 0.22 points (95% CI: 3.53–4.30), corresponding to a state of moderate regulatory system strain. This value falls within the range typical of highly trained athletes, in whom the body mobilizes additional functional reserves to adapt to systematic physical нагрузки. The observed changes reflect physiological remodeling of the cardiovascular system in response to regular training. The degree of regulatory system strain does not exceed adaptive capacity and indicates the formation of a “sports heart”, a complex of morphofunctional adaptations that ensure high physical performance.

    Statistically significant, albeit weak, positive correlations were identified between skeletal muscle parameters (SMM, FFM, SMI) and bone density measures (Z-score, BUA), with correlation coefficients of r ≈ 0.15–0.17. Multiple regression analysis was applied to construct a predictive model (Z-score ~ SMM + phase angle), demonstrating the independent contributions of skeletal muscle mass and phase angle to variability in bone mineral density. These findings may be considered when assessing osteopenia risk in individuals with different body composition profiles, as well as when evaluating the allostatic potential of athletes with distinct tissue remodeling patterns. The obtained results provide a foundation for a personalized approach to the assessment of adaptive reserves and optimization of the training process.

    Statistically significant associations between genetic polymorphisms and body composition parameters were identified using the Kruskal–Wallis test, including SMM (p = 0.024), TBW (p = 0.019), ICW (p = 0.023), ECW (p = 0.014), and FFM (p = 0.019). These data form the basis for a personalized approach to nutritional support in athletes, taking genetic characteristics into account.

    The identified changes in the genetic and physiological status of athletes, as well as remodeling of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, can be applied in the planning of sports training to achieve "elite" performance. These findings may also be used to prevent potential pathological conditions requiring rehabilitation and, in the future, could be utilized in genetic therapy in medicine. Identifying gene polymorphisms in a cohort of athletes from the Karaganda region will expand knowledge about the geographical features of sports genomics.

    «Optimization of the Method of Suburethral Urethropexy for Stress and Mixed Urinary Incontinence in Women»

    AP23488848

    Purpose: to improve the outcomes of surgical treatment for stress and mixed urinary incontinence in women.

    Optimization of the method of suburethral urethropexy in stressful and mixed forms of urinary incontinence in women

    Relevance

    the concept of the project is to identify solutions to the insufficient effectiveness of surgical treatment of urinary incontinence in women by optimizing the main surgical technique—the placement of a suburethral sling—and by studying the mechanisms underlying a positive response to surgery in the major forms of this condition: stress, urge, and mixed urinary incontinence. Approximately 10% of middle-aged women suffer from daily urinary incontinence, and by the age of 50, this figure reaches 40–45%. Urinary incontinence significantly affects women’s quality of life and represents a critically important medical and social problem. This pathology lies at the intersection of surgery, urology, and gynecology and therefore requires comprehensive investigation beyond the boundaries of a single scientific specialty.

    Expected results

    The primary anticipated outcome is improved surgical treatment results in women with stress and mixed urinary incontinence. This will be achieved by developing a new device for non-invasive determination of the optimal level for suburethral sling implantation. The study is expected to yield evidence confirming the influence of specific vaginal microbiota on symptom severity and surgical outcomes in women with mixed urinary incontinence. Another expected result is the acquisition of ultrasound data that will help identify prognostic factors of preoperative effectiveness and postoperative indicators of treatment success.

Research team members: Dr. Nikita Dmitrievich Kubin, Doctor of Medical Sciences; Dr. Dmitry Vladimirovich Vazenmiller, PhD; Dr. Elena Vadimovna Avilova, Candidate of Medical Sciences; Dr. Alena Vladimirovna Lavrinenko, PhD; Leonid Viktorovich Sevastyanov, Master of Medical Sciences.

    a device for non-invasive determination of the optimal length and implantation site of a urosling has been developed. A total of 88 surgical procedures for moderate to severe urinary incontinence in women have been performed. Interim analysis has been conducted comprehensively and includes: age, body mass index, symptom severity, type of urinary incontinence, characteristics of surgical intervention, anamnesis, postoperative course, quality-of-life indicators, urogenital tract microbiota, and ultrasound parameters of the urethrovesical segment. In total, 65 parameters were evaluated for each of the 88 patients, representing a substantial volume of completed research work. Data collection is ongoing.

    the practical significance of the research lies in the possibility of applying the developed device in clinical practice to determine the optimal level for suburethral sling implantation. Based on the study results, an algorithm for managing patients in the postoperative period will be developed.

    1. The optimal composition of a wound healing agent with blackhead extract has been developed. Experimental samples of a wound healing agent with blackhead extract in various concentrations were obtained and developed to study their effect on bacterial chemotaxis, adhesion and hyaluronidase activity of clinical strains isolated from patients with purulent wounds.

    2. The antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of experimental samples of wound healing agent was studied. A selection of samples of wound healing agents has been made that exhibit relatively high wound healing activity, which inhibit the chemotaxis, adhesion, and hyaluronidase activity of opportunistic microorganisms isolated from purulent wounds, and also enhance the phagocytic activity of wound surface cells, as determined by cytological studies. The acute toxicity of the wound healing agent was studied in an in vivo experiment.

    3. A technology has been developed for the production of a wound healing agent with an extract of common blackhead. Regulatory documents for obtaining a wound healing agent have been developed

    4. A draft analytical regulatory document has been developed and standardization of a wound healing agent with blackhead extract has been carried out in accordance with the requirements of the State Pharmacopoeia of the Republic of Kazakhstan (GF RK).

    5. Drafts of regulatory and technical documentation have been compiled, which are recommended for implementation in pharmaceutical production.

    One of the priority directions for the development of science and the pharmaceutical industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan is the search for ways to more efficiently use its own resources of wild and cultivated plant raw materials and produce original phytopreparations based on them at an affordable price, and at the same time not inferior in quality to its competing counterparts.

    In addition, the implementation of the Project will contribute to:

    - on a national scale, the scientific development of a young scientist, the promotion of his research career by publishing scientific results in highly rated journals and testing research results at international conferences;

    - on an international scale, it will expand the opportunities of the Republic of Kazakhstan for equal scientific cooperation in the development and analysis of phytopreparations with wound-healing, antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

    It is planned that the wound healing agent being created with high efficiency will have a moderate cost, which meets the interests of low-income strata, as well as increasing the level of protection of citizens of the Republic of Kazakhstan by contributing to public health, creating new jobs during the Project and improving the skills of young professionals.

    Development of a new drug based on steppe sage extract

    Relevance

    One of the important directions in improving the efficiency, quality and safety of medicines is the use of economically justified types of natural raw materials. A large number of plants including medicinal ones grow on the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Of great interest from the point of view of practical use in medicine are species of the genus Salvia L. (Sage).

    Currently, 8 species of plants of the genus Sage grow in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Salvia officinalis is included in the State Pharmacopoeia of the Republic of Kazakhstan. However, other species of the genus Salvia L. are not yet sufficiently studied and are not in demand for medical use. Thus, steppe sage (Salvia Stepposa Des.-shost.) grows almost throughout the entire territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

    Analysis of drugs based on plants of the genus Sage in the modern market of Kazakhstan showed that their range depending on the pharmacological action is quite limited. Thus, the study of promising plant raw materials of steppe sage with the aim of using it for the production of domestic medicines indicates the relevance of this Project and its practical significance for the pharmaceutical industry.

    Expected results

    For the first time, microwave and ultrasonic extraction of steppe sage will be carried out using modern methods to obtain a pharmaceutical substance, as well as raw materials will be prepared, its quality will be analyzed, plant extracts will be obtained, and their standardization will be carried out. Samples of steppe sage extracts with high biological activity will be selected.

    The object of the study is Salvia stepposa Des.-Shost. Diagnostic features of Salvia stepposa have been identified at the macro-, micro-, and histochemical levels. Quality parameters and raw material standards have been established. A total of 30 extracts of Salvia stepposa were obtained using percolation, ultrasonic, and microwave extraction methods with various solvents (water and hydroalcoholic solutions). Extraction parameters were determined, and the component composition of the extracts was analyzed using TLC and HPLC-UV methods. A promising extract of Salvia stepposa was selected, on the basis of which tablets were developed. It was proven that the use of microwave activation for obtaining the extract reduced the extraction time by 15 times compared to other methods.

    A new method for obtaining dry extract of steppe sage has been developed, which, thanks to the use of microwave extraction, is characterized by high productivity of the technological process, low consumption of extractant, and the elimination of labor-intensive and time-consuming procedures, making it accessible, rational, and economical. Quality specifications for the extract have been developed. Studies have been conducted on the biological activity, cytotoxicity, and acute toxicity of the extract. Pharmaceutical development of tablets based on extract has been carried out. The effectiveness of sage extract as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial agent has been confirmed. A new drug based on steppe sage extract has been developed, which has no analogues on the pharmaceutical market of Kazakhstan, as it is made from raw materials grown in Kazakhstan. The developed tablets contain more rosmarinic acid than the currently existing analogues.

    The significance of this work on an international scale lies in the application of modern methods for obtaining biologically active compounds from Salvia stepposa, which grows in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan and possesses valuable practical properties. Specifically, microwave and ultrasonic activation methods were used, which will undoubtedly contribute to the development of science and technology in Kazakhstan.

    The innovative and competitive advantage of this work is associated with the development and implementation of an import-substitution system for vital pharmaceutical products for the Republic of Kazakhstan. The use of advanced technologies in the creation of new pharmacologically active substances will significantly increase production efficiency and reduce production costs.

    Purpose: development of a new dental product based on Origanum vulgare L. in accordance with ICH Q8 Pharmaceutical Development.

    Development of a new dental product based on Origanum vulgare L.

    Relevance

    In recent years, people have become more aware of the effects of fluoride toothpastes, which has increased interest in herbal products as an alternative in the dental caries region. Dental caries is a disease that most often causes high levels of cariogenic lesions Streptococcus mutans, which contain a biofilm leading to the formation of dental plaque.

    In dentistry, herbal extracts are often used for their high anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, as well as antioxidants, antiseptics, analgesics, antifungals, antibacterial and antiviral agents.

    Recent studies have shown the effectiveness of the use of drugs for the prevention and treatment of oral diseases, namely against plaque and caries. The use of medicinal herbs in therapy is gaining momentum in the world every day. Oregano (Origanum vulgare L.) from the family Lamiaceae is a very famous plant with antibacterial, antiparasitic, antioxidant, antimicrobial and antifungal effects.

    In modern pharmaceutical and dental practice, an urgent problem is the creation of new methods for treating acute and natural failure of the oral cavity. Dosage forms such as gels and ointments with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects are often used. They have prolonged conditions, simple technology and are easy to use. The gel combines the properties of a solid and a liquid, therefore it is very effective for use; due to the formation of aqueous internal structures, it allows the inclusion of incompatible chemical substances in its composition.

    Gels, compared to creams and ointments, have a great advantage when used on pathological areas, since they provide a faster release of drugs directly under exposure conditions. Due to the porous nature of teeth, gels are the best treatment for all types of teeth.

    In the present course, the activity of Origanum vulgare L. essential oil against the formation of S. mutans biofilms will be proven, anti-caries gel, alternative extract and Oregano vulgare essential oil will be obtained, and then its antimicrobial activity in vitro will be determined.

    Expected results

    1. Optimal compositions of dental gel with essential oil and ordinary soul extract will be developed. Gel samples have been developed to study the anti-caries effect and antibacterial action.

    2. Based on the results of studying the inhibition of Streptococcus mutans biofilm formation (anti-carious effect) and antibacterial action, the effectiveness of the dental gel will be proven. The acute toxicity of dental gel will be studied in an in vivo experiment.

    3. Technologies for producing dental gel with essential oil and extract of the common soul will be developed.

    4. In the future, quality indicators will be developed and standardization of the dental gel will be carried out.

    Development of a technology for a medical product of plant origin with antitumoral effect against a human prostate cancer cell line PC-3

    AP14972772

    Purpose: of the project is to develop a method and technology for obtaining a drug based on the sum of biologically active substances from thyme, to study the antitumor activity against human prostate cancer cells PC-3 and to study the molecular mechanisms of its action

    Development of a technology for a medical product of plant origin with antitumoral effect against a human prostate cancer cell line PC-3

    Relevance

    Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignant diseases in men. Annually more than 550 thousand new cases of prostate cancer are registered in the world. PC occupies the leading position in the structure of cancer incidence and mortality from malignant neoplasms among men worldwide. In 2020, more than 1.4 million new cases and more than 375,000 deaths were registered worldwide, so prostate cancer is a serious public health problem, including in Kazakhstan.

    Considering the significant economic costs associated with the treatment of this pathology, as well as the disability of the male population, more and more attention is being paid, both abroad and in Kazakhstan, to the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of this pathology. In particular, the possibility of using phytotherapy for the treatment and prevention of PC is considered.

    The potential of using phytotherapeutic agents for the treatment and prevention of cancer is far from being revealed, the study of antitumor properties of plants continues. Every year new preparations based on biologically active substances isolated from plant raw materials are created, as well as new data on the antitumor activity of familiar medicinal plants, such as peppermint (Mentha piperita L.), thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.), thyme creeping (Thymus serpyllum L.) are published.

    However, it is necessary to take into account scientifically based and experimentally proven factors in the world practice that affect the qualitative composition and quantitative content of biologically active substances in plants, this is the harvest season, the phase of vegetation, geographical region, climatic conditions and the growing environment. In addition, one of the main factors that affects the pharmacological effect of biologically active substances is the method and technological conditions for their production from plant raw materials.

    On the territory of Central Kazakhstan, 15 species of plants of the thyme genus (Thymus L.) grow, of which 5 species are endemic, including common-leaved thyme (Thymus crebrifolius Klok.), which remain practically unexplored.

    A survey of the raw material reserves of common-leaved thyme (Thymus crebrifolius Klok.) in the Karaganda region revealed that the total operational reserve of plant raw materials was 2.9 t/ha, and the possible annual volume was 1.8 t/ha. Thus, common-leaved thyme is a promising renewable raw material for the development and production of original medicines.

    Given the above, the development of a method and technology for obtaining a drug based on the sum of biologically active substances from thyme, the study of antitumor activity against human prostate cancer cells PC-3 and the study of the molecular mechanisms of its action is an urgent task.

    Expected results

    1. Carry out extraction of plant raw materials of thyme with the use of traditional and modern methods, obtain experimental samples for studying antitumor activity against the human prostate cancer cell line PC-3.

    2. To study the antitumor effect of the obtained extracts on the human prostate cancer cell line PC-3 and their effect on the viability of healthy cells. To study the antiradical activity in vitro and anti-inflammatory activity in vivo of the obtained extracts.

    3. To investigate the effect of the obtained extracts on proliferation, survival, migration, signal transduction, and regulation of oncogenic mechanisms in the PC-3 human prostate cancer cell line PC.

    4. Develop a technology for obtaining a medicinal product of plant origin that has an antitumor effect on the human prostate cancer cell line PC-3, and regulatory documents - laboratory regulations, pilot industrial regulations and draft ND. Organize pilot production of the drug for further pharmacological testing.

    «Assessment of Tryptophan, Trimethylamine N-oxide, Kynurenine, and 5‑Hydroxyindoleacetic Acid Levels in Neurological Complications of Long COVID‑19.»

    IRN AR 27510159

    Purpose: Assessment of tryptophan, trimethylamine N‑oxide, 5‑HIAA, and kynurenine levels in the blood plasma of patients with neurological complications of Long COVID‑19.

    Assessment of Tryptophan, Trimethylamine N-oxide, Kynurenine, and 5‑Hydroxyindoleacetic Acid Levels in Neurological Complications of Long COVID‑19.

    Relevance

    The COVID‑19 pandemic, caused by SARS‑CoV‑2, has presented a major global challenge and left behind complex and multifaceted consequences. Among the most significant issues are neurological complications that develop in a substantial proportion of patients even after the acute phase of infection has resolved. These complications arise from a combination of direct viral injury, immune responses, and psychological and physiological alterations. Their pathogenesis is linked to systemic inflammation and disruptions in metabolic pathways, leading to notable impairments in nervous system function.

    Particular attention is drawn to biomarkers such as trimethylamine N‑oxide (TMAO), tryptophan, 5‑hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5‑HIAA), and kynurenine, whose levels may change in response to inflammation. These molecules play key roles in blood–brain barrier dysfunction, inflammasome activation, and the formation of neurotoxic metabolites. Studying their levels and mechanisms may provide deeper insights into the pathogenesis of Long COVID‑19 and support the development of improved diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.

    Expected results

    At least two research articles and/or reviews will be published in peer‑reviewed journals indexed in the Science Citation Index Expanded (Web of Science) and/or in journals with a CiteScore percentile of ≥50 in Scopus. Additionally, at least two articles or one review will be published in journals recommended by Lists 1 and 2 of the Committee for Quality Assurance in Education and Science (KOKNVO).

    The project aims to investigate changes in TMAO, 5‑HIAA, tryptophan, and kynurenine levels in individuals who have recovered from COVID‑19 and exhibit at least two neurological symptoms associated with Long COVID‑19, compared with those without such symptoms and healthy volunteers. The potential role of these molecules in the pathogenesis of Long COVID‑19–related neurological manifestations will also be assessed.

    It is expected that this project will clarify the roles of the studied molecules in neurological symptoms of Long COVID‑19, determine whether they may serve as biomarkers of disease activity, and identify potential therapeutic targets. The findings will be relevant for neurology, molecular immunology, infectious diseases, and laboratory diagnostics.

    Purpose: Development of a new wound healing gel based on Dracocephalum ruyschiana extract in accordance with ICH Q8 Pharmaceutical Development.

    Development of a New Wound-Healing Agent Based on the Extract of Dracocephalum ruyschiana L.

    Relevance

    There is a growing interest in herbal medicines, which often contain a balanced composition of biologically active substances (BAS) that do not cause toxic, allergic, irritating reactions, and, at the same time, have high therapeutic activity in various diseases. Prolonged use of antimicrobials can lead to disruption of reparative processes in the wound, the emergence of antibacterial resistance of microbial flora. Therefore, it is necessary to expand the range of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of wounds of various etiologies. Microbes, including bacteria, fungi and viruses, can have a serious effect on wound healing, leading to various complications. And they can also colonize the wound surface, which disrupts the normal healing process and can lead to an infectious process. Phytopreparations in wound healing gels offer an effective and safe solution for the care of wounds and skin damage. They combine the natural healing properties of plants with modern technologies, providing an integrated approach to the treatment and restoration of the skin. Herbal preparations contain a variety of BAS that can work synergistically, enhancing the overall therapeutic effect and providing a wider range of effects on the body. Dracocephalum ruyschiana L. (Lamiaceae) is an essential oil plant used in folk medicine. Medicinal properties are due to the content of biologically active substances in the aboveground part of plants – cardenolides, alkaloids, tannins, coumarins, flavonoids. It is used in folk medicine for respiratory diseases, as an antipyretic, for asthenia, as a means of increasing potency. The nectar of Dracocephalum ruyschiana is active against Gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The results obtained will allow us to develop a technology for obtaining a soft dosage form based on Dracocephalum ruyschiana according to ICH Q8 Pharmaceutical Development and standardize it. The significance of the Project on a national and international scale lies in the practical implementation of the development of a soft dosage form technology based on Dracocephalum ruyschiana extract, which is currently not available in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

    Expected results

    1. For the first time, microwave and ultrasonic extraction of the Dracocephalum ruyschiana will be carried out using modern methods to obtain the substance, and raw materials will be harvested, its goodness will be analyzed, plant extracts will be obtained, and their standardization will be carried out. Samples of Dracocephalum ruyschiana extracts with high biological activity will be selected.

    2. A technology will be developed to produce a gel based on the Dracocephalum ruyschiana containing a large amount of rosemary acid and having high biological activity.

    3. Standardization of the gel based on the extract of the Dracocephalum ruyschiana has been carried out, a draft of regulatory documentation has been drawn up, which is recommended for introduction into pharmaceutical production.

    «Development of biodegradable and easily recyclable polymer composites for the electronics industry and biomedical applications»

    AР 2619778

    Purpose: The development of an efficient and environmentally sustainable method for producing and regenerating biodegradable polymer-fabric composites based on polylactic acid and various fillers, utilizing additive manufacturing technologies for applications in both the electronics industry and medical devices.

    Development of biodegradable and easily recyclable polymer composites for the electronics industry and biomedical applications

    Relevance

    The development of environmentally friendly materials, including biodegradable polymer composites, represents one of the key objectives of modern scientific and technological advancement, as evidenced by the steady growth of scientific and applied research in this field. Polymer–fabric composites such as textolite, getinax, and carbon-fiber-reinforced plastics are widely used in electronics, mechanical engineering, medicine, and prosthetics due to their high performance characteristics and industrial scalability.

    However, the widespread use of these materials is accompanied by a serious environmental challenge—the lack of effective and safe disposal methods. In conventional composites, epoxy and phenol-formaldehyde resins derived from non-renewable and highly toxic raw materials are used as binders. Products based on these materials are not subject to biodegradation and accumulate in the environment, contradicting modern environmental safety requirements. In developing countries, including the Republic of Kazakhstan, the recycling of such waste is virtually absent, resulting in landfilling and long-term contamination of soils and groundwater.

    Polylactic acid (PLA) and its copolymers represent a promising alternative to traditional binders, as they exhibit comparable mechanical properties, belong to the class of thermoplastics, allow for repeated processing, and can undergo chemical and biological disposal to form environmentally safe products. The development of economically viable technologies for producing bioactive and biodegradable polymer–fabric composites based on PLA opens new opportunities for the electronics industry and medical applications, including implantology.

    At the same time, the expected growth in the production of polylactic acid–based products highlights the urgency of developing highly efficient and environmentally friendly disposal and recycling methods, including the use of alternative approaches to activate recycling processes.

    Expected results

    As a result of the project implementation, new formulations and technologies for producing biodegradable polymer–fabric composites with high mechanical and electrophysical properties, critically important for applications in the electronics industry, will be developed. The materials created will demonstrate enhanced resistance to moisture, thermal loads, and operational factors, enabling an extension of the service life of electronic devices and improving the environmental safety of products through the use of biodegradable components. To ensure an objective assessment of the effectiveness of the developed materials, testing protocols will be developed and implemented to confirm their mechanical, dielectric, and operational characteristics.

    At the same time, the project will result in the development of new bioactive composites with improved biocompatibility, significantly expanding their potential applications in medical devices. The developed materials will exhibit osteostimulating, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties, creating prerequisites for their use in implantology and surgery. Technological processes will be optimized, comprehensive biological testing and biocompatibility studies will be conducted, and several prototypes of medical devices will be manufactured and tested, including tubular bone implants and elements for cranioplasty.

    An important outcome of the project will be the development of efficient methods for recycling and disposal of polymer–fabric composites aimed at minimizing the environmental footprint and implementing the principles of a circular economy. Quantitative data will be obtained on waste reduction, increased reuse of polymer components, and the potential for their secondary application in new products.

    The obtained results will be published in high-impact scientific journals, presented at international conferences, and protected by patent rights.

    Samples of the studied composites were fabricated using injection molding and melt processing techniques.

    Comprehensive mechanical testing of all composites was conducted.

    Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) analysis was performed to determine the chemical composition of the samples and to identify structural changes in the composites and fillers.

    Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was carried out, providing data on the thermal stability and resistance of the samples. Dielectric and electrophysical measurements of the composites were also performed.

    The consumers of the developed technology will include industrial companies manufacturing electronic printed circuit boards, as well as pharmaceutical and medical enterprises in Kazakhstan and the CIS countries. In the case of establishing independent production of products based on PLA composites, both legal entities and individuals in the Republic of Kazakhstan and the CIS countries may act as consumers.

    «Formation of hygiene skills to maintain and strengthen reproductive health in teenage girls»

    Implementation period: 15.05.2025-14.05.2027

    Purpose: to form a conscious attitude towards intimate hygiene in teenage girls in order to maintain and strengthen their reproductive health.

    Formation of hygiene skills to maintain and strengthen reproductive health in teenage girls

    Source of funding:

    Association of Schools and Programs of Public Health, Washington, USA

    Relevance

    The presence of functioning, always accessible and private toilets in schools has a positive impact on students’ health, their academic performance and attendance, especially for girls (Bowen et al. 2007; Jasper et al. 2012; Lopez-Quintero et al. 2009). However, the data obtained from the project “Capacity building in the water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) sector in schools among the students of 11-18 years old for an effective response to the COVID-19 pandemic”, implemented in 2021-2022, revealed that despite the presence of separate toilets for boys and girls in the studied schools, some facilities for hygiene during menstruation were available only in one school, which was built according to a modern design and opened in 2017 (Omarova, 2022).

    In addition, there is insufficient knowledge among teenage girls in the field of proper intimate hygiene, maintaining and strengthening reproductive health and preventing gynecological diseases. The reasons for this are the lack of qualified public health personnel in schools and female hygiene lessons, shifting responsibility between parents and teachers for teaching girls proper hygiene or insufficient attention to this issue, as well as cultural taboos on many topics about “intimate” health among Muslims.

    Expected results:

    Capacity building in the field of proper intimate hygiene is considered as a key element in maintaining and strengthening reproductive health and preventing gynecological diseases. Increasing the awareness of adolescent girls about proper intimate hygiene will lead to a change in their attitude towards their own health. This, in turn, will provide the basis for preserving and strengthening the reproductive health of the future generation.
