A cesarean section (CS) can be a lifesaving intervention when medically indicated, but it may also lead to adverse short- and long-term health effects for women and children.

Operative delivery is one of the preventive measures to reduce maternal and perinatal mortality. Due to objective reasons, the indicators of perinatal and early neonatal deaths of children in the Russian Federation have been steadily declining over the past decades. Operative delivery is one of the preventive measures to reduce maternal and perinatal mortality. However, it is necessary to take into account the risks of operative delivery for both mother and baby. The planned caesarean section does not allow to fully activate the adaptive mechanisms of the baby, which disrupts the cytokine cascade and leads to various immunological disorders, one of which is allergy. The last meta-analysis of 13 trials showed a high risk of developing bronchial asthma in children born by cesarean section. Autoimmune diseases, oncological processes and systemic diseases is clearly in evidence in this group. This article discusses the risks for children born by planned cesarean section in the short and long term and the possibility of prevention according to modern trials.

We established and reported two years ago the original methods for evaluating daily changes of elemental concentration in a body by means of a standard-free method for powdered beard samples daily taken with electric shaver. It was found that the method is quite useful for investigating short- and long-term changes of elemental concentration in a body. However, the method for beard analysis is applicable only to men. In order to estimate daily changes of elemental concentration in a body for women and children, a new method which allows us to quantitatively analyze hair samples cut into 1 mm pieces has been developed and applied to three long hair samples taken from three persons. It is found that the method enables us to estimate both long- and short-term changes in elemental concentration in a body as well as beard analysis. It is found that sulfur keeps almost constant over a long period, and arsenic shows very rapid changes with a few days' period, while mercury shows only long-term changes with the period of a few months. These behaviors are almost the same as those observed in beard analyses. On the other hand, bromine shows a certain seasonal changes; its concentration shows a certain trend of increasing in summer and decreasing in winter. Lead and calcium show very long-term changes, and the behavior of strontium is quite similar to that of calcium. The method is expected to give us information about history of changes in elemental concentration in a human body over a few or more years. It is expected that the behavior of arsenic showing rapid elevation within a few days can be explained as a response to intakes of arsenic-rich foods. It is expected that the method gives us a clue to the identification of the main pathways of human exposure to certain toxic elements.

Research Hotspots

Background: Disaster epidemiology has not attracted enough attention in the past few decades and still faces significant challenges. This study aimed to systematically analyze the evolving trends and research hotspots in disaster epidemiology and provide insights into disaster epidemiology.Methods: We searched the Scopus and Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) databases between 1985 and 2020 to identify relevant literature on disaster epidemiology. The retrieval strategies were TITLE-ABS-KEY (disaster epidemiology) and TS = (disaster AND epidemiology). Bibliometrix, VOSviewer 1.6.6 and SigmaPlot 12.5 were used to analyze the key bibliometric indicators, including trends and annual publications, the contributions of countries, institutions, journals and authors, and research hotspots.Results: A total of 1,975 publications were included. There was an increasing trend in publications over the past 35 years. The USA was the most productive country. The most frequent institutions and journals were Fukushima Medical University and Prehospital and Disaster Medicine. Galea S made significant contributions to this field. “Epidemiology” was the highest-frequency keyword. COVID-19 was highly cited after 2019. Three research hotspots were identified: (i) the short- and long-term adverse health effects of disasters on the population; (ii) COVID-19 pandemic and emergency preparedness; and (iii) disaster management.Conclusions: In recent decades, the USA was a global leader in disaster epidemiology. Disaster management, the short- and long-term health effects of disasters, and the COVID-19 pandemic reflected the research focuses. Our results suggest that these directions will remain research hotspots in the future. International collaboration is also expected to widen and deepen in the field of disaster epidemiology.
