CLINICAL AND IMMUNOLOGICAL EFFICIENCY OF ADAMANTANE DERIVATIVE IN THERAPY OF ASTHENIC DISORDERS IN EARLY FORMS OF CHRONIC BRAIN ISCHEMIA by E. V. Davydova, A. V. Zurochka

“…When treating psychogenic asthenic syndrome in the veterans of recent  military  conflicts, an adamantane derivative  administered as a course  treatment, at a dose of 50 mg 2 times daily causes psychostimulant, anxiolytic, vegetotropic, antihypotymic, and hypnotic pharmacological effects, with reduction of main psychopathological and somatoneurological symptoms.A notable immunotropic effect  of the  drug  was revealed, being  expressed  as enhanced immunopoiesis; activation of innate defense  mechanisms; expansion of Treg lymphocyte population, suggestive for increased suppressor  effect  upon  the  mechanisms of autoimmune aggression;  implementation of cell differentiation/ proliferative effect; anti-apoptogenic properties; anti-inflammatory activity (reduction of TNFα, IL-8, hsCRP, along with IL-2  increase) associated with reduced functional activity of mononuclear cells; vasotropic action expressed  as normalized balance of vasoactive  factors  (nitric  oxide,  endothelin-1), decrease of nitrotyrosine concentration, suggesting  the  nitrosylation stress reduction. …”

A Study on the Creep Characteristics of Gassy Clay Mixed with Silt by Aiwu Yang, Tianli Liu, Hao Zhang, Boqu Zhang

“…Triaxial shear tests and creep tests were conducted on gassy clay with silt content, prepared using the laboratory “zeolite method”, to analyze its shear deformation characteristics and long-term resilience. We proposed a prediction model for calculating the long-term resilience of silt-containing clay, accounting for confining pressure and gas content, and verified its efficacy through experimentation. …”
