    Abstract: Introduction and purpose Due to the growing tendency to diagnose obesity in patients, scientists are trying to find drugs that facilitate weight reduction.  An example of such a formulation is the GLP-1 analogue semaglutide. The following article is an analysis of the current knowledge on the effectiveness and safety of obesity treatment with semaglutide based on available publications in Pubmed and Google Scholar databases. State of knowledge The main mechanism of semaglutide is based on a stimulation of insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells, and inhibition of glucagon from alpha cells, inhibition of hepatic gluconeogenesis, and reduction of energy consumption with minimal impact on energy expenditure. In clinical trials, it showed the best results compared to placebo and other drugs used in weight reduction. Participants treated with semaglutide achieved a reduction in waist circumference, improvements in blood pressure parameters, HbA1c levels, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and CRP protein, and increased HDL cholesterol levels. Semaglutide is well tolerated by patients, and its main side effects come from the gastrointestinal tract, including nausea, emesis, diarrhea. Summary The analysis of the latest publications and meta-analyzes of the literature shows that the use of semaglutide is safe and effective in the treatment of obesity. The positive effect of semaglutide on weight reduction also contributes to the reduction of the risk of cardiovascular events and other obesity-related complications. It is also well tolerated by patients, which translates into possible longer use, and weekly subcutaneous injections are not burdensome for patients. Key words: semaglutide; obesity; GLP-1 analogue; overweight

    Abstract: Acne inverse sometimes known as hidradenitis suppurativa is a long-term dermatological condition. Due to the poorly examined nature of the disease the effectiveness of its treatments is unclear. More than 50 interventions have been described and therefore its diagnostic and the treatment can be challenging. The aim of this case report is to draw attention to the possible use of laser therapy in the treatment of hidradenitis suppurativa. A case report. We report the case of 27-year-old woman that has been successfully treated with laser after years of an ineffective treatment. Due to the failure of systemic and local antibiotic therapy, hormone therapy, surgical drainage and orally and externally applied retinoids, removal of lesions using a CO2 laser knife and a fractional laser therapy combining a CO2 laser and a 1570 nm wavelength laser on the surface of the affected skin was performed. Conclusions. The use of laser therapy, with particular emphasis on the CO2 laser, may be an important and effective element of hidradenitis suppurativa treatment.

Many therapeutic procedures have been described in the literature, nevertheless the disease is difficult to treat. A case report. The paper presents a case of successful laser treatment in a 44-year-old woman with a long history of facial skin discoloration of the type of melasma. The patient was treated with combined laser therapy in the area of ​​facial discoloration with a picosecond laser and a thulium laser. Aim The aim of this study is to draw attention to the possibility of using laser therapy in the treatment of melasma-type skin hyperpigmentation. In this article, we describe a case of brightening of a melasma-type discoloration during a single laser treatment combining the use of a 1064nm picosecond laser and a 1927nm thulium laser, in order to meet       interests of patients and physicians in the use of laserotherapy in the treatment of discoloration, especially in patients who do not tolerate well the side effects of pharmacological therapies. Conclusions. The use of laser therapy, with particular emphasis on the picosecond and thulium laser, can be an important and effective element in the treatment of melasma-type hyperpigmentation of the skin.

    Abstract: Chronic pain is reported by 40% -79% of patients with cirrhosis, which is one of the most neglected symptoms among this population. Chronic pain management in patients with cirrhosis remains a difficult clinical issue since a significant number of analgesics are metabolized in the liver and potential side effects are more frequent and involve significant clinical risk. The aim of this review is to draw attention to the available pain management options in patients with cirrhosis based on an analysis of published articles. The following article is based on the literature found in the pubmed database. There are still no precise pain management guidelines in this group of patients. Treatment should include pharmacological, non-pharmacological methods and treatment of comorbidities and patients require careful observation. More research is needed in this area.

    Abstract: Chronic pain is experienced by the majority of patients with renal insufficiency. Pain management in patients with chronic kidney disease is difficult because a significant part of painkillers is excreted through the kidneys, therefore side effects are more common among this population. The aim of this review is to draw attention to the available pain management options in patients with CKD based on an analysis of published articles. The following article is based on the literature found in the pubmed database. Treatment should include pharmacological, non-pharmacological methods and treatment of comorbidities, whereas patients should be carefully monitored for side effects and possible complications. More research is needed in this area.
