This article discusses the problem of informing students of medical universities in Kyrgyzstan about CMVI, as well as an analysis of the population survey by ELISA for the detection of specific immunoglobulins of class M and G for 7 years (2014–2020). The article provides an analysis of the surveyed by sex of all ages, which allows us to conclude that the bulk of the surveyed are women of childbearing age. Thus, cytomegalovirus infection poses a particular danger to the fetus, up to its intrauterine death. The work is interdisciplinary in nature, written at the intersection of medical microbiology, epidemiology and public health and health care. Considerable attention in the work is paid to the fact that those examined by the ELISA method for specific IgM are ten times less than for the detection of specific IgG. Although it is the detection of specific IgM that poses a particular danger to the fetus — it can lead to its especially life-threatening complications such as: heart disease, retinopathy, which can lead to blindness, deafness and even mental retardation, intrauterine hypotrophy, immaturity, prematurity, chronic intrauterine fetal hypoxia. The idea is substantiated how important it is for future and practicing doctors to inform the population about this infection, which will help in the future to timely detect IgM and possibly save the fetus from intrauterine death. Using the results of an ELISA test for the detection of specific IgM and IgG, which today is one of the most reliable and affordable ways to detect a disease, the author proves in his studies the huge problem of informing and examining the population. The topic under consideration will be of particular interest to specialists in the field of public health and health care, since this is a truly national problem. The presented work indicates that CMVI is currently a serious medical and social problem. This problem is extremely poorly understood and requires further study.

This chapter provides a narrative that explains the politics of access (distribution, utilization, outcomes) as well as the context in which health inequalities are produced in India. While fields such as medical sociology, medical anthropology, health economics, community health, social medicine, epidemiology, and public health, among others, with their own theories, methods, and approaches are able to contribute distinctive dimensions, it becomes essential to engage across the boundaries in a collective manner to understand the complexity of health care that is increasingly shaped by the global market forces and ideologies. This volume thus opens up the possibility of constructing a new paradigm for understanding health sector as well as signalling a new field ‘health care studies’.

The article describes the organizational structure and results of the implementation of a unique interdepartmental system of targeted health care and disease prevention in risk groups of the most vulnerable categories of the population (children and pregnant women) resided in industry-affected areas, which is an integral part of the regional system of the management chemical risks for population health. The system is represented by a modular stepwise principle of taking a set of science-based hygienic, health care and disease prevention measures and includes hygienic diagnostics and multimedia health risk assessment; environmental epidemiology studies; biological monitoring of toxicants; evaluation of the personal multimedia toxic burden in the most vulnerable population groups; biological disease prevention, clinical and laboratory diagnostics and rehabilitation treatment of diseases, informing population about health risks posed by chemical contamination of the environment and measures of risk elimination and prevention; performance evaluation including a cost-benefit analysis. The system health management has been implemented since 2001 in 17 municipalities of the Sverdlovsk Region with the mean annual coverage of 11,000 preschool children, pregnants and women of childbearing age. In 75-80% of enrolled children, clinical and diagnostic indices improved, thus indicates to the health promotion: morbidity rate in these children decreased by 30-40%, disease frequency and duration became 2-4 times lower, and over 80 additional incident cases per 1,000 children were prevented. In 2005-2016, the prevented economic damage to public health exceeded two billion rubles. Since 2009, the system has been applied in the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania (the town of Vladikavkaz), the Orenburg Region (the towns of Mednogorsk and Gay), and the Krasnoyarsk Krai (the city of Krasnoyarsk).

The Relationship

Background: The relationship between oral health and general health is gaining interest in geriatric research; however, a lack of studies dealing with this issue from a general perspective makes it somewhat inaccessible to non-clinical public health professionals. Purpose: The purpose of this review is to describe the relationship between oral health and general health of the elderly on the basis of literature review, and to give non-clinical medical professionals and public health professionals an overview of this discipline. Methods: This study was based on an in-depth review of the literature pertaining to the relationship between oral health and general health among the older people. The tools commonly used to evaluate dental health and the academic researches of male elderly people were also reviewed. And future research directions were summarized. Results: Dental caries, periodontal disease, edentulism, and xerostomia are common oral diseases among the older people. Dental caries and periodontal diseases are the leading causes of missing teeth and edentulism. Xerostomia, similar to dry mouth, is another common oral health disease in the older people. No clear correlation exists between the subjective feeling of dryness and an objective decrease of saliva. Rather, both conditions can be explained by changes in saliva. The General Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) and the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) are the main assessment tools used to examine oral health and quality of life in the older people. The GOHAI tends to be more sensitive to objective values pertaining to oral function. In addition, oral health studies in male elderly people are population-based cohort or cross-sectional studies, involving masticatory function, oral prevention, frailty problems, cardiovascular disease risk, and cognitive status. Conclusion: It is possible to reduce the incidence of certain oral diseases, even among individuals who take oral health care seriously. Oral health care should be based on the viewpoint of comprehensive treatment, including adequate nutrition, good life and psychology, and correct oral health care methods. In the future, researchers could combine the results of meta-analysis with the clinical experience of doctors to provide a more in-depth and broader discussion on oral health research topics concerning the older people.
