Oral vitamin B12 therapy at a dose of 1000 μg has been shown to be adequate for the treatment of vitamin B12 deficiency. Also, the administration of vitamin B12 for prophylactic purposes is recommended for patients with subnormal or borderline concentrations of vitamin B12 in the blood serum. To study the possibility of using the polypeptide drug cortexin for the treatment of cognitive, emotional and behavioral disorders in children and adolescents with epilepsy and to assess the efficacy and safety of the drug in this group of patients. Eighty-six patients (41 girls and 45 boys) were examined at the age of 3 to 17 y.o. Cortexin was used along with antiepileptic drugs. Clinical and pathopsychological methods were administered. Children and teenagers with epilepsy have average IQ (91-110) in 72% of cases, 24% had mental deficiency of various intensity, these were children with pharmacoresistant epilepsy, including 2% with IQ 154 and 2% with IQ 71-80. Clinical, neurophysiological and psychological study of children and adolescents with epilepsy reveal the improvement of electrophysiological parameters, there are no aggravation of seizures in 95% cases. The improvement of cognitive functions is observed in 65% of patients. Clinical, neurophysiological and psychological study of children and adolescents with epilepsy reveal the improvement of electrophysiological parameters, there are no aggravation of seizures in 95% cases. The improvement of cognitive functions is observed in 65% of patients.A clinical case of a genetically confirmed diagnosis of alternating hemiplegia associated with epilepsy is presented. The combination of two types of seizures in a child made it difficult to make a diagnosis. The result of video-EEG monitoring made it possible to understand that a child showed both epileptic seizures and non-epileptic seizures simultaneously with different periodicities. The mutation in the ATP1A3 gene was verified with genome-wide sequencing and targeted therapy was prescribed in a timely manner. As a result, both types of seizures stopped after treatment.The article is a short review of an observational study that proves the good efficacy and tolerability of perampanel suspension in the adjunctive treatment of epilepsy in children over 4 years of age. The study demonstrated a high level of 50% responders 47% with focal seizures, 65% with transition of focal seizures to bilateral tonic-clonic seizures, 65% with primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Cessation of seizures was achieved in 12%, 19% and 55% of patients, respectively. The most common side-effects were fatigue (26%), nasopharyngitis (19%), lightheadedness, irritability, fever (13% each), and vomiting (11%). There were no significant clinical negative changes in cognitive functions according to the assessment on the Aldenkamp-Baker scale, both on the total score and subscales. Diphenhydramine Also, there were no significant changes in laboratory data, vital functions and ECG parameters.Progressive supranuclear palsy (PNP) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by a combination of progressive akinetic-rigid syndrome, postural instability with frequent falls, supranuclear ophthalmoplegia, pseudobulbar syndrome and frontal dementia. The disease usually develops after the sixth decade of life, and has a progressive course. An own description of the clinical case of progressive supranuclear palsy in a 79-year-old patient with oromandibular hyperkinesis while taking levodopa is presented. To assess the mental health of health workers during a pandemic. Eight hundred and twelve medical workers took part in a cross-sectional Internet survey. The questionnaire included a socio-demographic block, a block of questionnaires for assessing the level of symptoms of anxiety and depression (PHQ-9 and GAD-7). The data were processed using statistical methods. The prevalence of anxiety and dep
