The Impact

There was executed the ecologic-hygienic assessment of the distribution of respiratory diseases prevalence in bioclimatic zones of the Primorsky Krai. The aim of the study was a systematic assessment of the impact of ecological-hygienic factors of environment on the distribution of respiratory diseases in adolescents and children of the Primorsky region. As an information database there were used indices of the prevalence of diseases of the respiratory system of the ICD-10 class of the official statistical report forms for the period of2000-2013 and the parameters of the environment offactor modules (6 - socio-sanitary, 5 - environmental). The numerical values of modules offactors were determined according to a specially developed scoring scale. The study of the prevalence was carried out with the use of a classical method of data analysis - descriptive statistics, Chi-square criteria. By means of the method of regression analysis from the SPSS package software there was established the relationship of environmental factors and the level of the prevalence of diseases, and were calculated values of the factor loadings influencing on the morbidity rate of children and adolescents. The study revealed that in the structure of morbidity diseases of the respiratory system account of 39% in adolescents, 61% - in children. Constructed predictive models describe the trend of the increasing in the prevalence in adolescents and children. Over the past 15 years, the level of respiratory diseases morbidity rate increased by 46.1%. It is established that the prevalence of respiratory diseases in children and adolescents from various districts of the Primorsky territory depends on the features of the bioclimatic zones and the degree of sanitary-hygienic situation, as well as combinations of parameters that form these zones; the highest cumulative level of the prevalence is observed in the bioclimatic zone of the coast, that is caused by the various degree of the impact of biotropic factors of environment; The prevalence of diseases of respiratory system is mainly affected by bioclimatic factors: residence in an area of high humidity, temperature swings, movements of air masses in combination with air pollution

With the use of the methodology of the system approach there were obtained results of the evaluation of the occurrence of ecology-dependent diseases in children and adolescents in bioclimatic zones of the Primorsky Krai. Analysis of the prevalence of the main classes of ecologically dependent diseases according to the appealability (diseases of the respiratory system, diseases of digestive organs, diseases of blood and blood-forming organs, diseases of the circulatory system, diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue, diseases of the genitourinary system, neoplasms, congenital anomalies, infectious diseases) was performed with the use of official statistical report forms No. 12 (ICD-10) over the period of2000-2014. Informational Database of parameters of the environment was represented by the factor modules: 6 - sanitary, and 5-environmental ones). By means of the method of the regression analysis there was established the relationship between environmental factors and the prevalence of ecological-dependent diseases, there were calculated values of the factor loads influencing on the indices of the morbidity rate in children and adolescents. The analysis of morbidity according to classes showed that during the study period, in the total there was a gain in the indicator ecologically dependent morbidity rate in children by 33.3%, in adolescents - by 35.3%. In the children and adolescent population there are prevalent diseases of the respiratory system - 67.3% and 52.45%, respectively; further in children and adolescent groups diseases of the digestive system - 9.45% and 17.08% take place; then in the children cohort are infectious diseases, and in adolescents - diseases of the genitourinary system. The level of ecologically dependent morbidity rate is determined by the complex impact of environmental and hygienic factors, with a predominance of sanitary-hygienic component and related with it parameters of the environment of habitation, such as chemical pollution of urban areas (soil, air, water sources), nevertheless biotropic factors (temperature, humidity, fog, number of days with biologically active solar radiation) make a significant contribution. The revealed various degree of the response of children and adolescents through the prevalence rate level to the exposure of ecological and hygienic factors of environment should be taken into account in the development and carrying out medical-preventive measures.

Aim. To evaluate the prevalence of kidney cancer and bladder cancer under the influence of environmental factors in different bioclimatic and ecological zones of Primorsky Krai. Methods. The initial data were the incidence of kidney and bladder cancer (form №12) according to administrative territories of Primorsky Krai during the period from 1994 to 2014. In assessing the risk of prevalence of malignant neoplasms of kidneys and bladder in bioclimatic zones (maritime climate of the coast, transitional climate from maritime to continental and continental climate), ranking of territories of the region by zones of ecological stress was used: critical, intense, satisfactory, and relatively benign. To calculate the impact of habitat factors on the urologic oncology, information entropy and correlation and regression analyses were used. Results. The groups of areas with low, medium and high incidence of malignant neoplasms of the bladder and kidneys were distinguished. High prevalence of oncourologic pathology was determined in the areas of critical and intense environmental situation, where the coal, mining and chemical industry, construction industry, machine-building plants are located, and in areas with intensive chemicalization of agriculture. It was revealed that bladder cancer prevalence has a tendency to rise from the continental bioclimatic zone to the coast in all ecological zones, mainly due to differences in the structure of coast and continental areas bioclimate. It was shown that high morbidity rate is associated with drinking water quality, overall pollution of the environment, and depends on the chemical composition of groundwater and sanitary condition of soils. Conclusion. Ranking of territories by the prevalence of oncourology gives the possibility to make further operational decisions on the development of the complex of top-priority preventive and health-improving activities for specific areas.

Introduction. Currently, COVID-19, which is rapidly spreading around the world in the form of a pandemic, is a serious public health problem that poses a significant epidemiological and medico-social threat to the population and its quality of life, and affects all spheres of public life and economy. Aim. To assess the degree of influence of the pandemic of the new respiratory viral infection COVID-19 on the level of registered primary morbidity by classes of diseases, including the class "Diseases of the respiratory system" in the territory of the Far Eastern Federal District.Materials and methods. To implement the tasks of the study, a complex of analytical, epidemiological and statistical studies was carried out. Methods used: epidemiological analysis and monitoring, statistical, comparative and correlation analysis and methods for analyzing time series. Epidemiological and statistical assessment of the incidence of the population was carried out on the basis of ICD-10 according to the data of the state statistical monitoring of the incidence of the population of the Russian Federation for 2019-2020 using the database of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, the Central Research Institute of Organization and Informatization of Healthcare of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation.Results. The pandemic of the new respiratory viral infection COVID-19 significantly changed the dynamics of the registered morbidity in the adult population, which dropped sharply in all ICD-10 classes, most intensively in the classes "Diseases of the endocrine system" (by 27.8%), "Diseases of the blood and hematopoietic organs" (by 22.6%), "Neoplasms" (by 21.1%), "Diseases of the circulatory system" (by 18.5%), with the exception of the class "Diseases of the respiratory system", the level of primary morbidity for which in the territory of the Far Eastern Federal District in 2020 increased by 23.9%. The most common and severe clinical manifestation of COVID-19 is bilateral pneumonia, the incidence of which among the adult population in the Far Eastern Federal District increased 2.7 times, and in the territory of the Russian Federation – 3.8 times. At the same time, the incidence of pneumonia in the child population decreased by 36.4%. Along with the growth of acute forms of respiratory pathology during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Far Eastern Federal District, the level of registered primary morbidity of chronic respiratory diseases decreased: chronic bronchitis (by 22.3%), bronchialasthma (by 20.8%), COPD (by 3, 6%).Conclusion. The negative dynamics of the growth of the registered morbidity of the population can have negative consequences due to the late detection and untimely diagnosis of chronic forms of pathology, including respiratory diseases, their progression and the development of life-threatening complications of the disease and, as a consequence, an increase in mortality from these causes of the population, who did not receive timely and adequate medical assistance.

The objective of the research was to study the dynamics of health indices of children and adolescents of the city of Saint Petersburg for 20 years. We analyzed official statistical data of general and primary morbidity rate of children aged of 0-14 years and adolescents aged 15-17 years, the incidence of chronic diseases in schoolchildren (7-17 years), as well as there was held a comparative analysis of the health state of senior schoolchildren in 5 Saint Petersburg schools with advanced content of education based on indices of the pathological prevalence rate, physical development, non-specific resistance, adaptation status. The study was executed according to approved standard methods. In the study, over a 20-year period there was revealed a steady trend of health deterioration of children and adolescent population of the city as a whole, and schoolchildren enrolled in the program with advanced content of education as well. The prevalence rate of diseases in children has increased by 72.0%, while primary morbidity increased by 70.4%. Adolescents aged 15-17 years showed more pronounced gain of indices than in children, the level of general and primary morbidity rate has increased by 2 times. In the structure of general and primary morbidity of children and adolescents first ranking places were held by respiratory diseases, injuries, poisoning, diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue. In chronic morbidity of schoolchildren there were prevailed diseases of the musculoskeletal system, diseases of the eye and its appendages, respiratory diseases. There was established the gain in the pathological prevalence rate in schoolchildren with advanced content of education. In the majority of the surveyed high school students there were diagnosed polysystemic changes in health status. Negative trends in the health status of children and adolescents of the city of Saint - Petersburg were confirmed by indices of nonspecific resistance: immunological tests, key elements of protective enzyme systems of the body. In order to stabilize the growth of children and adolescent incidence there were suggested directions of prevention work.

Swine respiratory diseases particularly enzootic pneumonia caused by Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (Mhyo) constitutes a significant health problem to pig production in many countries. However, the impact has been underestimated in Nigeria. This study therefore, retrospectively analyzed swine respiratory diseases and the associated pulmonary histopathology. Postmortem records and archival lung samples were obtained from the Departments of Veterinary Pathology University of Ibadan, Ibadan and Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta. A total of 98 pig carcasses were presented for necropsy during the period between 2005 and 2017. The diseases presumptively diagnosed using gross morphological criteria were extracted from the postmortem records while, 21 formalin-fixed archival lung samples were used for histopathology and immunohistochemistry using standard techniques. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics while Chi Square was used to test for association between different variables and pulmonary lesions at α0.05. In this study, respiratory diseases had a prevalence of 56.1% with enzootic pneumonia as the most frequently diagnosed at postmortem (49%, 48/98). Only age was identified to be a significant (P = 0.019) predisposing factor in the development of respiratory diseases. Microscopically, hyperplasia of bronchus associated lymphoid tissue (BALT) with formation of lymphoid nodules and thickening of alveolar septa were the most significant changes (38.1%, 8/21). Immunohistochemically, M. hyopneumoniae antigen was detected in 13/21 (61.9%) of the lung samples and were immunolabelled as granular brown reactions on the luminal surfaces of bronchial and bronchiolar epithelial cells and intraluminal cellular exudates within the airways. The histopathological findings and the detection of M. hyopneumoniae antigen indicated that the organism is primarily involved in the development of enzootic pneumonia in naturally infected pigs and may be central in the pathogenesis. It is concluded that enzootic pneumonia is a serious health issue in pigs in the study area and needs urgent attention.

The Impact

During the last few decades, climate change has increased air pollutant concentrations with a direct and serious effect on population health in urban areas. This research introduces a hybrid computational intelligence approach, employing unsupervised machine learning (UML), in an effort to model the impact of extreme air pollutants on cardiovascular and respiratory diseases of citizens. The system is entitled Air Pollution Climate Change Cardiovascular and Respiratory (APCCCR) and it combines the fuzzy chi square test (FUCS) with the UML self organizing maps algorithm. A major innovation of the system is the determination of the direct impact of air pollution (or of the indirect impact of climate change) to the health of the people, in a comprehensive manner with the use of fuzzy linguistics. The system has been applied and tested thoroughly with spatiotemporal data for the Thessaloniki urban area for the period 2004-2013.
