The most important age structure represents an age structure of population. The results of census which was held on territory of the Republic of Serbia show that the Republic of Serbia is considered to be among the countries with the oldest population. In the last fifty year's time there was registered a constant decrease in number of young people, and constant increase in number of old people. During the period of the 80s, a number of young people from 0-14 years old was twice larger than the number of people older than 65, on the republic and the city of Belgrade's level, in the last census held in 2002 for the first time there was noticed a higher amount of people older than 65 related to population in an age from 0-14. An average old age of people in the Republic has grown from 35.8 to 40.3, and in Belgrade, which was always considered as a city of youth, it is noticed an increase in average old age from 34.9 to 40.4 years of age. Index of aging increased from 0.51 in the Republic of Serbia, 0.41 in Belgrade, to 1.01 or 1.07. In the Republic of Serbia and the city of Belgrade, for more than 50 years, the average size of household became smaller for more than one member, a number of single man households has increased for 5.5%, and participation of some old age groups in a structure of household members in a specific way shows a difficult demographic situation in Serbia and the city of Belgrade. Almost 83% of households in Central Serbia don't have even one pre-school child, and among households which have children at the age of 7, one child households form the majority. In the same period the number of households with members older than 65 has increased, so households like this in 2002 formed about 39%. Out of 435491 households in Serbia, every fifth household is named as OLD AGE HOUSEHOLD and SINGLE MAN HOUSEHOLD. .

The study was carried out to determine requirements of adult population of Russia in medical rehabilitation in hospital conditions depending on age groups. To determine requirements of country population in medical rehabilitation in hospital conditions the age-specific indicators derived from data massive from three territories were standardized on population and morbidity in Russia in 2010. The number of hospitalized patients being in need of medical rehabilitation in hospital conditions was determined as indicator characterizing requirements of population in medical rehabilitation in hospital conditions. The age-specific requirements of adult population in medical rehabilitation in hospital conditions was determined and analyzed on the basis of number of cases of annual hospitalization for medical rehabilitation in hospital conditions according main classes and particular diseases. The largest number ofpatients being in need of medical rehabilitation in hospital conditions goes to elder age groups 60-69 years (874.7 cases per 10 000 of population) and 70 years and older (1346.3 cases per 10 000 of population). The least number of this kind of patients goes to age group of 18-29 years (106.2 cases per 10 000 of population). The proposed calculated number of cases of hospitalization of adult population for medical rehabilitation in hospital conditions can be implemented by executive authorities of subjects of the Russian Federation in health care sector of any territory for determining requirements ofparticular region in medical rehabilitation with consideration for age structure of population.

Purpose of study. To investigate age gender and clinical anamnestic characteristics of patients with atypical clinical forms of acute myocardium infarction.Materials and methods. The study was based on data of the WHO programs “The register of acute myocardium infarction”. The analysis comprised 836 cases of acute myocardium infarction. The atypical clinical forms of acute myocardium infarction were detected in 184 patients (18.7%). In the structure of atypical clinical forms of acute myocardium infarction the following alternatives were appropriated: asthmatic (32,6%), collaptoid (31,5%), abdominal (13.6%), arrhythmic (7.6%), peripheral (5.4%)б painless (4.9%) and cerebral (4.3%).Results of study. The most of the males (62.5%) found themselves in the group of patients with abdominal form of acute myocardium infarction and most of the females in the group with cerebral form of acute myocardium infarction. In all analyzed groups the individuals older than 60 years prevailed. In the group of patients with cerebral form were most of the individuals underwent earlier acute myocardium infarction (50.0%). The diabetes mellitus most frequently was registered in individuals with painless acute myocardium infarction (55.5%). In all cases, course of acute myocardium infarction was complicated. Under atypical clinical forms of acute myocardium infarction higher lethality was registered and in groups with arrhythmic and cerebral forms it reached 100%.The conclusion. The whole group of patients with atypical clinical forms of acute myocardium infarction was presented by over-age contingent, severe in clinical, anamnestic and prognostic layouts. The unsatisfactory diagnostic of atypical clinical forms of acute myocardium infarction resulted in higher lethality of the given group of patients. With regard to that a general tendency of alteration of age structure of population of Russia is a steady increasing of percentage of individuals of older age groups t5he rate of occurrence of atypical clinical forms of acute myocardium infarction will regularly increase.

One of the promising areas of scientific research today is branding of territories. This issue is widely covered in the context of territorial marketing. Brand influence on recipient’s behavior is a significant brand management goal. That is why branding is actively used today in economy, in particular, when creating a territorial image. The development of urban space is predetermined by the need to form strategic guidelines that are adaptive to the existing competitive potential of the territory, dynamically changing environmental conditions, and toughening competition in the investment, information, labor, event, tourist and other markets. In this regard, the issues of territory’s promotion in the domestic and intercountry spaces by means of creating a recognizable urban brand which is associated with the most significant competitive advantages of the territory become more and more crucial. The importance of understanding the category of territory branding in the economic context is determined, in our opinion, by the formation of a territory brand, which helps to significantly strengthen the regional identity aimed at the elimination of various contradictions of religious, national character, as well as solution of problematic issues connected with the coexistence of various social groups within the same region. In order to determine the influence of brand identifiers on the economic development of the region, the authors have conducted a marketing study among the population of the Republic of Crimea, in which 242 respondents from various social and age groups took part. The survey reveals: respondents’ awareness of regional symbols depending on their age; respondents’ emotional perception of the logo of the city of Yalta; associative perception of the logo of the city of Saki; visual perception of the logo of the city of Kerch; knowledge of the logo of the city of Sudak; associative perception of the logo of the city of Feodosia; attitude of the population of the Republic of Crimea to the logos of cities in the region.

BackgroundPrevious research has documented how age structures and co-residence patterns shape the vulnerability of populations to outbreaks of covid-19, with Spain being among the most vulnerable countries.ObjectiveTo document the role of age-specific co-residence patterns in shaping the vulnerability of Spanish provinces to mortality arising from within-household transmission of covid-19.MethodWe use data from the Spanish Population Registry 2018 on 10% of the population residing in private households in Spain. We combine information on the age and number of household members with infection fatality ratios related to covid-19 to estimate the average number of deaths per infection if a person becomes infected and transmits the virus to other household members. ResultsChildren live in the largest households of all age groups on average. However, the age profile of the persons that children live with reduces, but does not eliminate, the risk of mortality arising due to within-household transmission of the virus.Provinces with aged populations face a double challenge. Not only do they have large numbers of vulnerable persons due to their age, older persons are also more likely to share the same households in aged provinces. Contribution We show how the vulnerability of Spanish provinces to covid-19 varies due to age structure and co-residence patterns and document the role of specific age-based co-residence arrangements in this result.

According to the 2011 Census, Vojvodina has the population of 1,931,809 which is by 100,183 less than in 2002. Vojvodina has fewer inhabitants today than in 1971. This decrease in number of inhabitants, according to the latest census, occurred in all municipalities except in the City of Novi Sad, where the population annually increased by 4,703. The main objective of this paper was to analyze the movement of population between two censuses, focusing on the specifics of population movements in certain areas of Vojvodina. First of all, the area of the North Banat should be pointed out because there the population has been steadily declining since 1961. On the other hand, the South Backa area records a steady increase in population in the period from the World War Two to the present, mainly due to the mechanical movement or immigration to the center of this area - the City of Novi Sad. In addition to the population decline, the population of Vojvodina is characterized by higher average age. The last census showed that the population of all municipalities was, on average, older than 40, except in the municipality of Zabalj (39.7) and the City of Novi Sad (40.0). Analysis of the data has shown that the trend of the population decline in Vojvodina, caused by very high mortality rates and low birth rates, continues and that the age structure of population is becoming less favorable.

This paper investigates the profile of COVID-19 cases in Hong Kong, highlighting the unique age structure of confirmed cases compared to other states. Whilst the majority of cases in most states around the world have fitted an older age profile, our analysis shows that positive cases in Hong Kong have been concentrated amongst younger age groups, with the largest incidence of cases reported in the 15-24 age group. This is despite the population’s rapidly ageing structure and extremely high levels of population density. Using detailed case data from Hong Kong’s Centre for Health Department and Immigration Department, we analyze the sex and age distribution of the confirmed cases along with their recent travel histories and immigration flows for the period January to April, 2020. Our analysis highlights Hong Kong’s high proportion of imported cases and large overseas student population in developing COVID-19 hotspot areas such as the United Kingdom. Combined with targeted and aggressive early policy measures taken to contain the virus, these factors may have contributed to the uniquely younger age structure of COVID-19 cases in the city. Consequently, this young profile of confirmed cases may have prevented fatalities in the city-state.
