The article presents the results of studies on the influence of mountain hypoxia on the state of the students’ respiratory system. When exposed to oxygen deficiency, only the respiratory capacity of the lungs undergoes significant changes. For instance, the RC level in female students under the influence of hypoxia gradually increased in conditions of medium altitude, reaching the maximum value of 0.64 liters (P ˂ 0.05), and on the plain - 0.44 liters. The RC value in young men reached the highest value of 0.74 liters in mid-altitude conditions, and on the plains, it constitutes 0.56 liters. The highest respiration rate for young men of 18.2 movements per minute was noted at an altitude of 600 meters, and the lowest - 17.4 at an altitude of 170 m. The maximum level of respiratory capacity while inhaling in girls is 1.24 liters, detected at an altitude of 600 meters, and the minimum level of 1.18 liters is noted at 170 m. The value of respiratory capacity while exhaling among young men living in the Sharoi region increased to 2.32 liters, and for those from Grozny - 2.24 liters. The highest VC level in girls - 3.87 liters - was found in the middle mountains, and on the plains, it was 3.58 liters. The VC value in young men, gradually increasing, reaches the highest value under the conditions of the Sharoi region - 4.57 liters, and in Grozny it was 4.28.

The analysis of the causes of the pathology of the vocal apparatus in vocalists is carried out. 136 singers were investigated in age from 23 till 70 years old with length of service from 3 till 42 years. It is shown that the occurrence of diseases of the larynx is affected by the state of the vocal apparatus itself, the volume and intensity of the vocal load. Of great importance is the quality of the singer’s vocal training, his age and length of service, the availability of additional work (concert, pedagogical activity), the correspondence of the performed parts to the singer’s technical and acting abilities, domestic and social living conditions. The structure of voice apparatus diseases also depend on type of singer’s voice and his nervous system status. Prevention of impaired voice function in musical theater vocalists should be aimed at eliminating all provoking factors.

The article provides the results of determining the state of the cardiorespiratory system and the level of physical fitness of the 1st year students of The Housing and Communal College. As a result of the conducted research, “below the average” level of functioning the cardiorespiratory system was defined at students. So, measures of the functional state of the respiratory system (Skibinski index) when compared with the assessment scale are equal to the score - 2 points, which corresponds to “below the average” level. Measures of the state of the cardiovascular system regulation (Robinson index) when compared with the scoring scale at students of both study groups are equal to the score - 3 points, which corresponds to the “average” level. The state of the cardiorespiratory system of boys is mainly higher than girls’ one in the sexual aspect. The exception is the results of measuring systolic blood pressure, where there is an opposite trend - the indicators of girls are higher than the results of boys. At the same time, the noted differences are valid only in indicators of the state of the respiratory system (p<0,05; 0,001). The distinctions are unreliable (p>0,05) in indicators of the cardiovascular system. The data of the conducted research indicates the “average” level of physical fitness at boys, which on average equals the “good” and “sufficient” levels at girls, which on average equals the score “satisfactory”. So, the boys have indicators for the development of all physical qualities that meet the assessment “good”. Speed, high-speed and power qualities and endurance meet the assessment “satisfactory”, strength and agility - the assessment “good” at girls. The physical fitness of boys is significantly higher than girls’ one in the sexual aspect (p< 0,001). The exception is the development of flexibility, where the results of girls are higher than boys’ ones, but unreliably (p>0,05). Thus, the results of the research indicate the feasibility of introducing the special physical exercises aimed at improving the functional state of the cardiorespiratory system and developing basic physical qualities into the physical education process of the 1st year students of institutions of higher education of the I-II level of accreditation.

Purpose: to study the dynamics of the cardiorespiratory system indicators of 13-14-year-old pupils under the influence of the differentiated content of physical education lessons. Material and methods: 103 pupils of the comprehensive school No. 150 of Kharkov took part in the research. The methods were used in the research: theoretical analysis and synthesis of scientific-methodological literature; biomedical methods (tonometry, pulsometry, and spirometry); pedagogical experiment; methods of mathematical statistics. Results: the level of functioning of the cardiorespiratory system of 13-14-year-old pupils is below average. Taking into account the indicators of the functional state of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems of 13-14-year-old pupils, the content of physical education lessons is differentiated; the development and implementation of physical exercise complexes aimed at increasing the above indicators. Conclusions: as a result of the introduction of the developed physical exercise complexes in indicators characterizing the state of cardiovascular and respiratory systems of pupils of experimental groups, there were reliable positive changes in all the studied parameters (p<0,05-0,001). As a result, the state of the cardiorespiratory system of 13-14-year-old pupils increased from below average to average. Keywords: physical health, cardiovascular system, respiratory system, physical education, 13-14-year-old pupils.

In experiments on mice in 3 different models of acute exogenous hypoxia, 12 new substances concerning to a group of copper-containing physiologically compatible antioxidants were investigated. It was discovered that substances πQ262, πQ1077 А and πQ1079 А significantly increase lifetime of mice during development of all used variants of hypoxias. On the example of the most active agents in the studied group (πQ262, πQ1077 A, πQ1079 A) shows that their anti-hypoxic effect on the development of acute exogenous hypoxia is accompanied by a marked decrease in the standard of energy metabolism, as well as a significant inhibitory effect on the state of the cardio-respiratory system of experimental animals. The obtained results allow attributing such substances as πQ262, πQ1077 А and πQ1079 А to the antihypoxant group of metabolic action.

Aim: to study of the state of the vocal apparatus in children with hoarseness using videolaryngoscopy and assessment of the state conducting part of the auditory analyzer according impedance audiometry. Materials and methods: 24 children aged 4 to 10 years old were examined, whose parents complained of hoarseness in children (from several weeks to 1 year). Perceptual voice assessment in children showed hoarseness of the voice of varying degrees. Videolaryngoscopic examination was performed using a videolaryngoscope of the company «Karl Shtorz» (Germany), impedancemetry – using a clinical impedancemeter «Siemens SD-30» (Germany). Results: After examining the state of the voice apparatus and the middle ear in children with complaints about the hoarseness, we have found that according to videolaryngoscopy, they have changes in the form of swollenness, a slight hyperemia of vocal folds. According to the impedance measurement, in 17 out of 24 patients, a tympanogram of type «C» was detected, and in 7 of them there was a pronounced reduction of compilation of the tympanogram, indicating certain violations in the sound conduction system. Conclusion: When examining children with voice impairment, it is important to adhere to a comprehensive approach to diagnosis and to evaluate not only the state of the vocal apparatus, but also to remember the possible accompanying pathology of the nasopharynx, the nose and the auditory analyzer.

The outcome of sarcoidosis of the respiratory system is closely linked to the state of homeostasis and reactivity. Monitoring their status is possible through immunological, biochemical and hormonal studies. Within common medical institutions re-executing these studies is not always possible for a number of reasons. Therefore, the research for the availability and informative criteria of homeostasis and reactivity state was initiated at the end of XIXth century and continues until now. At the Department of Phthisiopulmonology of the First St.-Petersburg state medical University Academy I. P. Pavlov. University, new accessible and informative diagnostic criteria for estimation the state of homeostatic balance of the organism are developed. They are based on research of the general adaptation syndrome and the discovery of antistress types of adaptive reactions of the organism. In this regard, based on the leukogram evaluation following diagnostic criteria were developed and tested: leukocyte-lymphocytic index, types of adaptive reactions, entropy and redundancy of formed elements of white blood cells, extent of disturbance of homeostasis, indices of proliferation and differentiation of monocytes and reactivity types. Unfortunately, in the pulmonology clinics, they are used today only in single cases. The monitoring of homeostasis and reactivity indicators in patients with respiratory system sarcoidosis had a high working performance. It is established that in sarcoidosis the best treatment effect with corticosteroids with minimal residual changes of respiratory system took place in patients with the appropriate type of reactivity and normal range of other indicators. Pathological reactivity of an organism, especially hyporeactive and areactive types, are always accompanied by formation of pronounced residual sarcoidosis changes in the respiratory tract, which is the basis for the subsequent exacerbation (recurrence) of sarcoidosis.

Due to growing recognition of comorbidities, COPD is no longer considered a disease affecting only the respiratory system. Its management now entails the early diagnosis and treatment of comorbidities. However, although many studies have examined the impact of comorbidities on the evolution of COPD and patients’ quality of life, very few have explored the means to systematically identify and manage them. The aims of this article are to summarise the state of current knowledge about comorbidities associated with COPD and to propose a possible screening protocol in the outpatient setting, emphasising the areas needing further research.
