It is essential to assess the destructive factors influencing the mortality rate of patients with COVID-19. This analysis may be necessary to form a roadmap for governments to focus on preventing and reducing the effects of COVID-19. The research aims to analyze the factors influencing mortality caused by COVID-19, based on data from countries around the world and national levels. Among such factors, the influence of the environmental component is highlighted. Methodology and scientific approaches: a comparative analysis – in establishing the average level of indicators for groups of countries depending on the human development index HDI, as well as for critical indicators to characterize the level of environmental "load" at the level of regions of Ukraine, synthesis method – economically justified analysis results average level of indicators for groups of countries depending on the human development index HDI, the method of generalization – at formation the general conclusions of the study, statistical methods (correlations and the method of averages) – in assessing the impact of factors on mortality from COVID-19. The study results: the article conducted a study on the analysis of factors influencing mortality caused by COVID-19. Indicators that participate in the analysis of factors influencing mortality from COVID-19 are identified. The leading indicators for assessing the standard of living and health of the population used in the world are marked. The average levels of indicators for groups of countries depending on the human development index HDI are calculated. The dependences of these indicators and their impact on the mortality rate on COVID-19 are economically substantiated. In terms of regions of Ukraine, an analysis of the effects of indicators that affect the mortality rate from COVID-19, using some components of the environmental "load." The study of the leading indicators for assessing the consequences of the spread of COVID-19 is carried out, and their significance at the regional level is analyzed. The possibility of using the results in further research may relate to the formation of an economic model of factors influencing mortality caused by COVID-19, which will predict different scenarios of destructive indicators on mortality from COVID-19 depending on the implementation of measures to combat the spread of the disease among governments countries. The study's practical significance is that based on the analysis of the results of the survey, governments can form effective management decisions to counter the spread of COVID-19 at the international and national levels.

Background and aims. Kidney cancer is among the cancers that have the highest growth rate in all age and racial groups in the world and is as the most deadly type of urinary tract cancer. Since awareness about this cancer incidence status and mortality is essential for better planning, this study aimed to investigate the incidence and mortality rate of kidney cancer and its relationship with the development index in the world in 2012.Method. This study was an ecological study conducted based on GLOBOCAN project of the World Health Organization (WHO) for the countries in the world. The correlation between Standardized Incidence Rates (SIRs) and Standardized Mortality Rates (SMRs) of kidney cancer with HDI and its components was assessed using SPSS18.Results. In total, 337,860 incidence cases (213,924 were men and 123,936 women) and 143,406 deaths (90,802 cases in men and 52,604 in women) of kidney cancer were recorded in 2012. A positive correlation of 0.731 was seen between SIR of kidney cancer and HDI (p≤0.001). Also, a negative correlation of 0.627was seen between SMR of kidney cancer and HDI (p≤0.001). Conclusion. The incidence and mortality rate of kidney cancer is higher in developed countries. A significant positive correlation has been seen between the standardized incidence and mortality rate of kidney cancer with the Human Development Index and its components. We need more studies to examine variation in incidence and mortality of kidney cancer and its related factors in the world.

Background: Chronic lymphoid leukemia (CLL) is one of the most prevalent types of leukemia, which is responsible for a remarkable mortality rate in the world. This study aimed to investigate the global trend of this cancer from 1990 to 2015 and to determine the relationship between trend of CLL mortality rate and Human Development Index (HDI) throughout the world. Methods: The age-standardized mortality rate data of all countries of the world (per 100,000) were extracted from the GBD database. In addition, the HDI values for the studied countries in different years were obtained from the UNDP database. The statistical analysis was performed using the mixed-effects location-scale model in the SAS software, version 9.4. Results: The findings of the statistical modeling showed a downward slope for CLL Age Standardized Mortality Rate (ASMR) for total world countries ( ˆ   0.002 ). We also find a significant association between CLL ASMR and HDI. Countries with higher HDI had higher level of CLL ASMR in years 1990 to 2015 with a negative slope. Furthermore, countries with lower HDI had Lower level of CLL ASMR with rather fixed rates in this period. Conclusion: These findings showed a decreasing trend of global CLL ASMR in the previous decades, although, the fixed trend of CLL ASMR in countries with low HDI is worrisome. The health policymakers should make more efforts to decrease the mortality due to this cancer in these countries.

Introduction: According to the importance of knowledge about incidence and mortality of oral cavity and lip cancer in health planning, this study was performed with the aim of investigating the incidence and mortality rate of oral cavity and lip cancer and its relation with the Human Development Index in the world in 2012. Methods: The study was conducted based on data from the world data of cancer and the World Bank (including the HDI and its components). Data about the age-specific incidence and mortality rate (ASR) for every country in 2012 were getting from the global cancer project. To analyze data, correlation tests between incidence and death rates, and HDI and its components were employed with a significance level of 0.05 using SPSS software. Results: In 2012, 300373 cases of oral cavity and lip cancer and 145353 cases of death from it have occurred in the world. A positive correlation of 0.221 was seen between the standardized incidence rate of oral cavity and lip cancer and HDI but this correlation was not statistically significant (p=0.114). On the other side, a correlation of 0.295 was seen between the standardized mortality rate of oral cavity and lip cancer with HDI that this correlation was statistically significant (p<0.001). Conclusion: The incidence and mortality of oral cavity cancer is high in the Asian countries especially south eastern of Asia. Performing preventive plans in high incidence and mortality rate regions and also obtaining etiological studies in these regions is recommended for diagnosing the causes of high incidence and mortality rates.

This chapter explains in detail the notions of ‘functionings’ and ‘capabilities’. It discusses the multi-layered phenomena of capabilities in the form of as threshold, internal, external, and complex capabilities. It analyses how they provide valuable understanding about the conversion factors that are involved in the translation of resources to capabilities and capabilities into functionings. It critically evaluates the capabilities approach and emphasises the importance of the role of endowments and entitlements as factors influencing and contributing to human flourishing and well-being. The unique feature of the chapter is the presentation of an integrated analytical framework that traces the pathways to human development through equity, sustainability, empowerment, and productivity processes. In addition, the chapter discusses the Human Development Index (HDI) and the challenges relating to its computation.

Ухудшение качественных характеристик населения (показателей здоровья, уровня культуры и образования) необходимо относить к наиболее значимым негативным факторам социального развития России и ее регионов. В статье дана оценка современного уровня развития человеческого потенциала в России и субъектах Дальнего Востока России на основе данных индекса человеческого развития (Human Development Index – HDI). Проведено сопоставление HDI России HDI с некоторых стан Европы и Азиатско-Тихоокеанского региона, имеющих самые высокие значения (баллы) индекса за период 1990–2018 гг. В межстрановом сравнении выявлены наиболее проблемные компоненты человеческого потенциала для России. В межрегиональном сравнении за 2000–2016 гг. проведена группировка регионов по HDI, направленная на выявление и сравнительную оценку перспективности субъектов Дальнего Востока России по формированию, развитию и возможному сохранению человеческого потенциала. С помощью корреляционного анализа выявлена зависимость между значением инвестиций в основной капитал на душу населения и индексом HDI, а также составляющими его индексами долголетия, доходов. Результаты группировки субъектов Дальнего Востока России по HDI и по качеству жизни населения за 2010–2016 гг. в определенной степени совпадают. Показано, что сдерживающими факторами социально-экономического развития регионов, а следовательно, низких значений HDI и индексов качества жизни населения являются недостаточное развитие социальной сферы, низкие уровень и качество жизни населения, ухудшающие качество человеческого потенциала и препятствующие его повышению. Необходимо проводить более эффективную политику в социальной сфере с акцентом на увеличение бюджетных и привлечение частных инвестиций в экономику регионов. The deterioration of the qualitative characteristics of the population (health indicators, insufficient level of culture and education) should be attributed to the most significant negative factors in the social development of Russia and its regions. The article assesses the current level of human development in Russia and the Far Eastern regions on the basis of human development index (HDI) data. The HDI of Russia is compared with that of some countries of Europe and the Asia-Pacific region, which have the best values (points) of the human development index for the period of 1990–2018. In a cross-country comparison, the most problematic components of human potential for Russia were identified. In the interregional comparison for 2000–2016, a grouping of regions by HDI was carried out, aimed at identifying promising and less promising subjects of the Far East for the formation, development and possible preservation of human potential. Using the correlation analysis, the relationship between the value of investment in fixed assets per capita and the HDI index, as well as its indices of longevity and income, is revealed. The results of the grouping of FER subjects by HDI are confirmed by the types of regions according to the quality of life of the population for 2010–2016. It is shown that the low level of development of the social sphere, the level and quality of life of the population, which reduce the quality of human potential and prevent its increase, are the constraining factors of the socio-economic development of the regions and, therefore, low HDI and QOL values. It is necessary to pursue a more effective social policy, with a focus on increasing budgetary and attracting private investment in the regional economy.
