Academician Bakriddin Zaripov performed an innovative physiological in vivo surgery on the rabbit intestine

A new innovative surgical method was presented at the recently established Physiology Research Center at the Faculty of Biology of the National University of Uzbekistan named after Mirzo Ulugbek. That is, under the leadership of Academician Bakriddin Zaripov, members of the “School of Young Physiologists of New Uzbekistan” performed surgery on a rabbit using this method.

In this exercise organized in cooperation with the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Innovation of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Ministry of Health, and the Tashkent Medical Academy, not only students of higher educational institutions of our country, but also universities of neighboring Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, as well as the USA, Great Britain, the Czech Republic, and the Republic of Belarus Physiologists and students participated online.

As noted, the role of physiology in the health and well-being of mankind is extremely important. After all, it is the science of life, it is the basis of medicine and veterinary medicine. In addition, a healthy lifestyle depends on human physiology. The fact that the Nobel Prize, which is considered the most prestigious award in the world, was first awarded to the field of physiology and medicine also has a great meaning.

However, physiology has been neglected in our country for many years. Thanks to the systematic reforms carried out by the head of our state in the direction of the development of science and education, new pages are being opened in the development of this science in our country.

The establishment of the Physiology Scientific Research Center and the “School of Young Physiologists of Uzbekistan” under the Department of Human and Animal Physiology of the National University of Uzbekistan is a clear proof of this.

The main task of the center and the school of young physiologists is to widely promote the science of physiology among students and young scientists, to study in depth the experiences of world physiologists. At the same time, it is aimed to familiarize the future specialists with innovative physiological laboratories, to help prepare highly qualified, professional personnel in accordance with today’s requirements by conducting independent experiments. Therefore, the training is conducted using innovative methods and technologies. Because theoretical knowledge is strengthened only if it is combined with practice, it inspires young people to innovate.

In the next exercise, a surgical operation was performed on a rabbit on the topic “Innovative physiological chronic (in vivo) surgical method in the rabbit intestine”.

– In today’s training, we addressed the topic of digestion, which is one of the most urgent issues of physiology, – says academician Bakriddin Zaripov, head of the Physiology Research Center. — In a new innovative “in vivo” method, the rabbit intestine was isolated, that is, it was limited, and a fistula was placed. This is a surgical practice aimed at researching the peculiarities of digestion. Its importance is that after the operation, our students and young researchers study the digestive system, in particular, the absorption and decomposition of food, its molecular mechanisms, the effect of vitamins, iodine and toxic substances on the body on the example of a living rabbit. Fortunately, young scientists, bachelors and masters have become direct participants of this process, not observers. This allowed them to test their theoretical knowledge in practice.

Scientists say that rabbits and rats are mainly used in acute and chronic experiments, in vivo and in vitro experiments, and in demonstration surgery classes. It’s not for nothing, of course. Because these animals are closest to humans in their physiological functions, including digestion, blood circulation, hormones, and other aspects.

In the innovative training, the surgical equipment, the incomparable services of our grandfather Abu Ali ibn Sina in the history of their creation, the types of sutures, the isolation of the intestine and the placement of a fistula, and information on the care of animals after surgery were explained in detail. It was decided to regularly hold such trainings in cooperation with foreign higher educational institutions.

Undoubtedly, these young physiologists will play an important role in mastering modern knowledge, presenting the achievements of the science of New Uzbekistan to the world, and, in the words of the President, in handing over the generations of the Third Renaissance
