The aim of this work was to demonstrate the advantages of using telemedicine (TM) in the management of the outpatients with maxillofacial surgical pathologies during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study was conducted at the MaxilloFacial Surgery Unit of “Magna Graecia” University of Catanzaro, on two different groups of patients: a group of follow-up patients (A1: patients in oncological follow-up after surgical treatment performed before the COVID-19 pandemic; A2: suffering from chronic lesions such as precancerous lesions), and a group B of patients with first urgent visits (B1: patients with suspected oncological pathology; B2: patients with suspected urgent disease such as medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ), odontogenic abscesses, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dislocation, etc.). Participation in the study required possession of a smartphone with Internet access, e-mail and the use of a messaging service (WhatsApp or Telegram) to send photos and messages; completion by the patient of a COVID-19 screening questionnaire; submission of a satisfaction questionnaire by the doctors and patients. A total of 90 patients were included in this study. A high percentage of satisfaction emerged from the analysis of the satisfaction questionnaires of both patients and doctors.TM thus represents an excellent opportunity to improve accessibility to oncological and non-management activities, reducing the risk of Covid-19 dissemination and should be promoted and implemented in the post-pandemic era.

Mathematical device of algebraic model of constructive logic has been used for many years for multivariate analysis in medicine and biology most often to identify causal relationships. This mathematical apparatus can be used for more complex analysis schemes for the purpose of determining the contingent of patients who require this method of treatment. The proposed method is a two-step analysis using algebraic model of constructive logic with different specified purposes and subsequent analysis of the resulting final components of the mathematical model. As a result, it is possible to identify restrictions and to quantify the number of patients who need to analyzed method of treatment. The proposed method is explained by an analytical study of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in oncological pathology. Analysis of the results revealed 7,87-39,35% of patients requiring hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The authors revealed the restrictions presented resulting final components of the mathematical model in the form of limits of detection of the combined factors. The equity analysis of values of the resulting components of the mathematical model is associated with the need to calculate the maximum possible total power of the resulting components of the mathematical model, used in expert systems.

The authors proposed and evaluated options of optimization of the algebraic model of constructive logic, designed to construct multichannel non-linear mathematical model often used in Russia in the in-depth analysis in medicine and biology. In the basis of optimization of this model are procedures for finding duplicate cases (rows base), relevant to the achievement of goals, and excluding those resulting components that are duplicated other cases the resulting components. Procedures for reviewing the results of the components of a top-down or bottom-up and comparing the numbers corresponding to achievement of objectives are the basis of optimization. If all the numbers viewing the resulting component will be present in other watched the resulting components, then it is removed as redundant. As a result of identifying and eliminating redundant coatings target lines are reducing the number of resulting parts. Reduction of number of resulting components is achieved by identifying and eliminating redundant coatings target lines. The results of two variants of optimization of mathematical model are shown on the example of the mathematical model identification features of the method of oxygen therapy in the treatment of oncological pathology. The authors suggested the possibility of practical use of various optimization algorithms to choose model with a minimal number of components of the resulting/

The structure of the oncological incidence among the population of Yakutia has changed significantly over the past 100 years. During this period, esophageal and gastric cancers lost the leading positions in the structure of oncological pathology; there was a sharp upsurge in the number of lung cancer and its decline by the end of the analyzed period; there has been a rise in the number of malignant neoplasms of the reproductive organs and large intestine. It should be noted that a sharp decrease in the number of esophageal cancer among the region’s population was due not to only the improvement of socio-economic conditions, but also to the well-coordinated and focused work of practical healthcare coordinated by the research team of Professor Ara Bezrodnykh that focused on the early diagnosis and prevention of malignant neoplasms of the upper digestive tract. The early 21st century was characterized by the beginning of the formation of the structure of oncological morbidity connected with the post-industrial development in Yakutia. The reasons for the recent changes are still being analyzed to be clarified.

The incidence of oncological pathology in Russia and throughout the world is steadily growing, and the mortality rate is not decreasing either. A large number of locally advanced and neglected cases of cancer of various location are revealed. Treatment of these forms requires polychemotherapy (PCT). The study included 52 patients with oncological pathology of various location: head and neck, stomach, large intestine, they underwent adjuvant chemotherapy according to the PF, TPF and FOLFOX regimens, which include an infusion of 5-fluorouracil for 2–5 days. The study analyzed gastrointestinal toxicity according to CTCAE, version 4.03, 2010. It was revealed that the addition of the probiotic Biovestin to meal reduces gastrointestinal toxicity by 2 times compared with the control group and reduces the risk of interruption of the PCT course by 19 % due to the development of side effects. Thus, the addition of the probiotic Biovestin has shown its effectiveness, safety and simplicity of use in the prevention of gastrointestinal disorders in cancer patients under conditions of PCT.
