Abstract
208 patients with biliary sludge (BS) were studied. The prevalence of BS was established, that was 9.1 % for a clinical examination. Two equivalent groups of patients were formed (75 people with different forms of BS), who were treated with UDCA drugs (Ursosan and Ursofalkom). The overall effectiveness of the treatment of BS was 87.9 %, the duration of treatment and the effectiveness of the dose depended on the type of BS. We have not received the differences in the effectiveness of Ursosan and Ursofalk drugs.

Abstract
The aim of the study. To investigate personal and emotional features and quality of life of women with IBS depends on age and IBS type. Materials and methods. Totally 245 patients with IBS were examined: women - 783, men - 62; middle age 45,3 ± 6,9 years (79-8 7 years); IBS-D type was diagnosed in 88 patients, IBS-C type - 48, IBS-M type - 709. Two groups of women with IBS were analyzed: under 45 year (n = 90) and 45 years and older (n = 93). IBS diagnostic criteria according to Rome III (2006) were used; the level of depression was assessed according to Beck's scale, anxiety rate - by Spielberger-Hanin questionnaire, alexithymia-by TAS questionnaire and quality of life - by MOS-SF 36. Results. IBS is more frequent in women than in men (3:7) independent on age. IBS-C type occurs only in women (not in men) in both age groups. The depression and anxiety rates are significantly higher in women than in men (p < 0.05), predominantly by the women's group of 45 years and older. Besides the depression, personal anxiety an alexithymia rates were significantly higher in the women's group of 45 years and older than those in the women's group of under 45 years. The rate of alexithymia increases with age both in men and in women with IBS (p < 0,05). The physical component of health is much lower in women than in men independent on age (p < 0,05). The highest levels of depression, personal and actual anxiety rates can be seen in the women’s group under 45 years with IBS-C type, and in the women's group of 45 years and older with IBS-D type. Conclusion. IBS is more frequent in women than in men independent on age. Changes in psycho-vegetative status, particularly depression and personal anxiety are more frequent in women, especially in women of 45 years and older. The physical component of health is much lower in women than in men independent on age.

Abstract
The article presents the results of a study on the state of the esophagogastroduodenal zone in patients with chronic alculous cholecystitis. 101 patients with established diagnosis of chronic acalculous cholecystitis participated in the study; the mean age was 45.47 ± 1.37 years. All patients underwent instrumental diagnostic methods for assessing the state of the hepatobiliary tract and esophagogastroduodenal zone. The performed study allowed to reveal the dyskinetic disorders of the biliary tract, combined with inflammatory changes in the mucosa of the esophagogastroduodenal zone.

Abstract
One of the serious and not very explored complications of chronic diffuse liver diseases is disturbance of intrahepatic and skin microcirculation. Laser Doppler flowmetry now is a new perspective method in studying of skin microcirculation in case of liver pathology. It has been shown that microcirculatory disorders are most informative in acupuncture points associated with the liver conditions. In the course of this study, maximal informative data about disorders of microcirculation were revealed in point F14 and point on the back surface of the right forearm. Significant differences in microcirculatory parameters compared to healthy individuals (parameter of microcirculation, PM and parameter Kv) were discovered in patients with liver cirrhosis. The method of laser Doppler flowmetry requires further application in diagnostics of patients with chronic diffuse liver diseases.

Abstract
Pilot results of new quantifying ultrasound methodic of liver steatosis evaluation in dB/cm are presented in this article. Main stages of the methodic standardization are tested in control group of patients (n = 90). Liver biopsy (n = 40) and dual-energy X-ray absorbtiometry in the Whole Body regime (n = 148) were reference methods in clinical group of patients (n = 148) with overweight and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The correlation of ultrasound liver steatosis diagnostics and liver biopsy was r = 0.86 at S0 and r = 0.84 at S3.
