The human sacrum shape and its metamorphoses should be considered due to their effect, primarily mechanical, predisposing for the vertebral column function evolution. The aim of the study is to define the human sacrum shapes and explain for such variability. The object of the study is represented with 68 sacrums obtained from the review collection of anatomical study preparations of the Bogomolets National Medical University Department of Anatomy. Each of the known human sacrum shapes represents the stage of the process of “sinking” of the sacral vertebrae bodies into the sacrum, with simultaneous fixation of external apices of their lateral parts in the sacroiliac joint. Generally, metamorphoses of the sacrum shape make up an accommodation for the new mechanical conditions as well as causal external factors. The sacrum continuously sustains multiple factors’ effects in each moment of the human life, which affects its shape and metamorphoses. The analysis of the human sacrum shape and functions reveals important instances: first, certain parts of the sacrum don’t preserve permanent relations; secondly, alterations in these relations keep to a certain sequence. This issue permits us to consider various sacrum shapes as sequential stages of the same process, occurring in the human body.

AbstractMedical museums are a record of the history of the medical thought processes. The Anatomical museum of the Department of Normal Anatomy located in the Danylo Halytsky Lviv National Medical University was founded in 1894 by Professor Henryk Kadyi (1851–1912). The museum includes a number of unique objects and displays > 2,000 specimens. These medical artifacts include both normal anatomy and malformed artifacts. The museum is divided into three sections that are arranged according to the systems of the body and a method of preparing specimens. The vast array of preserved specimens represents comparative, developmental, gender, systemic, dynamic, plastic, and descriptive anatomy. Besides the Anatomical museum, the historical treasure is the Anatomical Theater, the oldest auditorium at the Danylo Halytsky Lviv National Medical University that preserved its authenticity. These educational places teach us not only about morphology, but also help us appreciate the beauty of the human body.

Given the rapid progress of modern science, integrative physiology holds a key place in medical education, as it studies patterns of human body functioning in terms of individual characteristics, epigenetic factors and endogenous effects on cellular mechanisms. Drawing on five years of experience in teaching physiology at Danylo Halytsky Lviv National Medical University, we highlight the importance of implementing applied integrative physiology in the training of future doctors. We present interpretation of physiological phenomena, adaptive mechanisms and compensation resources in the human body. The introduction of methods for assessing human functions in real time based on high-precision registration of individual functional characteristics and adaptive physiological mechanisms with high diagnostic value, allows future doctors to develop clinical competencies in modern principles of medical science, personalized medicine, and preventive healthcare strategies

The aim of this article is to provide the detailed study of the changes in the lactobacilli indices of the oral biotope in health and in caries progression in individuals. Materials and methods: Materials included on reports and data of research projects conducted at the Department of Therapeutic Dentistry and Department of Microbiology, Virology and Immunology, Ukrainian Medical Stomatological Academy (Poltava), at the Department of Microbiology of Danylo Halytsky National Medical University (Lviv), completed in 2013;research data documented by the Department of Microbiology, Medical Stomatological Institute (now Ukrainian Medical Stomatological Academy, Poltava) in 1978; literature related to the subject matter. Methodology: the standard methods of dental examination recommended by WHO; methods of system analysis and system approach, bibliosemantic analysis . Results: The presented results indicate that the number of representatives of different types of oral microflora in the oral microbiocenosis is different at different stages of human life. The content of Lactobacilli in children decreases following the rise even under increased dmft indices. Conclusions: The data observed are of great clinical interest when considering the role of Lactobacilli in the protection of the host organism and the initiation of the carious process.

From ancient times, humans are striving for being healthy and to live with mental peace with family and society. In the previous centuries also, some manmade and mostly natural disasters have disturbed the pace of human life. There have been times when the whole human race has been in terror, danger, and utmost worry. The electrical gadgets also have made the human life comfortable, but also machines have dominated its consciousness. The stress, aggression, depression, and many more issues are also showing presence in all our lives. The chapter is a trial to establish the effect of yagna and mantra science over human calmness and its effect on human health irrespective to gender and age. The article also elaborates the effect of Sanskrit sound and mantra chanting on emission of radiations from electronic gadgets. It also presents the effect of spiritual practices on the human body and soul after the terror, stress, grief created due to COVID-19.

Изоляционные эксперименты, предоставляющие возможность изучения действия факторов космического полета на организм и отработки технологий для использования на борту космических кораблей, космических и напланетных станций, также являются платформой для эффективной международной кооперации. Координация усилий приводит к взаимообогащению сторон (знания, опыт, технические, финансовые и методические возможности сторон) и дает возможность повысить эффективность проводимых исследований. Такое сотрудничество позволит обеспечить жизнедеятельность человека в дальних космических полетах и сделать возможной широкую коммерциализацию космических технологий. Isolation experiments providing an opportunity to study the effects of space flight factors on human body and to develop technologies for use on board spacecraft, space and planetary stations serve also as a platform for international cooperation. Coordination of efforts leads to mutual enrichment (knowledge, experience, technical, financial and methodological capabilities of parties) and increase the effectiveness of research. Such cooperation will ensure the human life being in long-distance space flights and widespread commercialization of space technology.

Comparative-historical study of languages makes it possible to represent the diachronic process of structuring the world and forming the corresponding concepts. The abovementioned process is inherently integral and reflected in such socio-cultural areas of human life as language, art, religion, farming, ethno-traditional customs, culture (in its broadest sense), etc. The proto-language reconstructed as a result of the comparative-historical study and the picture of its diachronic development provide some information about the genetic relations between the people speaking the corresponding related languages, about their original homeland and the directions of their historical migrations, about their knowledge, ideas and representations. This time we have analyzed the semantic field of the lexemes denoting the human body parts, which are reconstructed at the Proto-Kartvelian language and exist in the contemporary Kartvelian languages (Georgian, Megrelian, Laz, and Svan) and some dialects (notably, Gurian, Rachian, Xevsurian, and Kiziqian). Our goal is to reveal the semantic structure of the mentioned field, to analyze the respective concepts as well as to outline processes of the development and the establishment of corresponding tokens (resp. lexemes). Vocabulary denoting a human body (resp. Somatic lexemes), its parts and inner organs is a constituent part of the basic core vocabulary of a language and presumably ought to be fixed in the ancient times’ reflecting data. Analysis of the lexical units, which have been reconstructed either at the Common-Kartvelian or Georgian-Zan level on the basis of regular sound correspondences between the Kartvelian languages, allows us to highlight the main course of forming and developing the linguistic units we are concerned with; namely, the accumulation of “knowledge” had been carried out due to the process of differentiation and detailed elaboration of the human body anatomy and respectively, the corresponding semantic field, somatic vocabulary, had been underway to be enriched based on the relation of cognitively interpreted markedness. Language changes and development, formation of new categories and concepts, and consequently, creation of new linguistic units is mainly carried out as the result of detailed elaboration, further specification and partition of unmarked categories: an unmarked category undergoes the division-differentiation on the basis of formally marked oppositions that leads to the formation of new linguistic units and structures and reflects the dynamic picture of enhancement of linguistic cognition of the universe. Dialectic material enriches the semantic space even more and specifies and fills the meanings of lexemes to be studied.
