The 3D model is the primary information of an integrated support system for the assessment of structural safety under vertical loads and seismic vulnerability of a masonry building. The available approaches for evaluating seismic demand and capacity still appear inadequate and today aims to improve the process of knowledge of the seismic behavior of masonry structures and of the reliability of the numerical analysis of evaluation methods. Discrete modeling approaches (macro-elements) can lead to more reliable results if accurate surveys of the geometry and construction details of the masonry structure are used, especially in contexts where advise against the execution of invasive on-site tests for assessments both under vertical and seismic loads, limiting the investigation campaigns. In order to improve digital processes, oriented to the knowledge of the state of health and quality of a masonry structure, this study illustrates a new overture to virtual modeling and assessment of the structural safety of this type of work. The survey and relief methodology here proposed integrates digital data sensors—configured within an IoT (Internet of Things) network—in a geometric model with a level of accurate and precise detail, processed downstream of the laser scanner and photogrammetric survey of the single masonry building, as “S.

The phenomenon of the Covid-19 pandemic has affected the whole globe, the consequences of which are long lasting and difficult to estimate. The Republic of Moldova, being a developing country, could not overcome these serious consequences, caused by the reduction of public health, the reduction of the work capacity of the population, the deplorable condition of the medical system, caused by small investments in health, etc. Human society has been put to hard tests of survival of patients with this virus, the incidence rate of diseases was about 11%. Thanks to the financial aid of the European Union, Romania and other countries, the Republic of Moldova managed to cope with things in the fight against Covid. This article presents the results of the research of the authors, participants of the national project "Assessment of health of post – COVID - 19 patients in the Republic of Moldova", which aimed to develop the Electronic Register of patients with Covid - 19 (March 2020 - June 2021), which will allow monitoring the process of treatment and recovery of the consequences of this disease, by assessing the state of health and quality of life both at admission and at discharge of the respective patients. Based on the concept of quality of life as a socio-economic category and its interconnections with health, the authors proposed the system of medical indicators to assess the health and quality of life of patients affected by covid. In the authors' opinion, a special role in the treatment and treatment of comorbidities belongs to comorbidities, so the authors selected them as separate study subjects to prove their negative impact on the form of the disease and the state of health and quality of life at discharge of patients.

The publication represents the first fragment of the large comparative study, directed to the investigation of factors which negatively influenced to the state of health and emotional sphere of students from Chemical Faculty (CF, 102 persons) and economic (EF, 68 persons) faculties of the same university. For this goal, the genetical, psychological and sociological investigation was included into the study. The block of standard psychological scales, detecting levels of expression of social adoption, alarm, overfatigue and interpersonal relations as well as the subjective welfare scale, are used for anonymous psychological testing. For the analysis of the conduct of life, state of health and influence of socioeconomic factors the special card-interview is created. For the levels of genomic instability evaluation, the micronuclear test on the buccal epithelium cells is used. We found out that students from CF had 3 times more level of stress expression than students from EF. We detected the two significant factors, negatively influenced to emotional sphere: the student’s relation to their future profession and the duration of the contact with chemical compounds during laboratory studies. In the latter case, in addition to correlation with category “faculty”, the dependence on time of duration (hours/week) of laboratory work is revealed. The influence of material prosperity and indicators of a conduct of life on the state of health and the emotional sphere of students aren’t revealed. As the relation to the future profession is proved as an essential factor of students’ quality of life and health, it is represented to be correct to reveal the true relation to the future profession during admission examinations by means of special psychological tests. Such approach can not only become base of a new technology of health protection during the training in higher schools, but also to increase the number of students who after release will work on the chosen specialty will allow increase.

The study assessed the state of health of residential building facilities for students and faculty in a private university in Nigeria. The study utilized 490 maintenance job request forms (MJRFs) in addition to 120 questionnaire on user’s satisfaction about their home buildings to generate data from respondents drawn from students and faculty. The results obtained revealed that electrical works, carpentry & joinery and ceiling tiles defects recorded 1st, 2nd & 3rd highest respectively on frequencies of occurrence. Whereas, roof works and external works on 11th & 12th positions respectively trailed last on frequency of occurrences. In the same light, results obtained on user’s satisfaction about their buildings indicated that out of the selected key performance indicators (KPIs) utilized on a 7-point Likert scale, users expressed satisfaction on supply of electricity & water, quality of floor & wall tiles, among others with mean scores of 6.94, 6.91 & 6.12 respectively. However users expressed dissatisfaction on, response rate to job requests and quality of wardrobe units, among others. It concludes that the provisioning of maintainable building facilities, design and application of standard maintenance management policy, plan and practices by private universities will stand them out to succeed over their rivals. It recommends that, better attention be accorded to those areas that failed on user’ satisfaction in order to, not only prolong the life of these buildings but to increase its economic value and satisfy purpose.

The Object of the Study. The system of monitoring the quality of life of the population in the municipalities of the northern territories.The Subject of the Study. Trends and patterns of quality of life indicators.The Purpose of the Study. On the basis of the developed methodology, assessing the quality of life of the population by the example of individual indicators reflecting the health and safety of the population in the context of municipalities with the construction of an integrated rating for the region.The Main Provisions of the Article. Nowadays, the need and relevance of information on the living strandards and quality of life of the population not only by region, but also by municipalities, are essenting, and the situation and indicators are the most important strategic task of the region, including smoothing the differentiation between municipalities. In assessing the quality of life of the population monitoring the state of health and safety of the population is of great importance. The are indicators reflecting the situation in these areas.A monitoring system is needed that can monitor and identify problem points of greatest tension in a particular municipal entity, set priorities for the future, conduct comparative analyzes in the dynamics of indicators, and evaluate the effectiveness of government bodies.Municipal statistics makes it possible to evaluate some indicators of the standards of living within the regions, but they reflect only certain aspects of social development; nevertheless, the most relevant indicators can be used to calculate the integral index for assessing the situation in municipalities of the region.Receiving practical approval of the method has proved its effectiveness by the example of municipalities of the Sakha Republic (Yakutiya) according to statistics of the Territorial body of the Federal State Statistics Service of the Sakha Republic (Yakutiya) including indicators of the health and safety of the population by level between municipalities and over three years. In the developed methodology, statistical indicators are converted into points depending on the maximum and minimum values. Indicators have been worked out taking into account the relevance for the northern territories, which may reflect the situation in a particular municipality, and the current socioeconomic situation.Based on the results of the assessment of the state of health and safety of the population, a rating of municipalities of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia) has been built,and differentiation was revealed by municipalities of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia). The presented study confirms the need for system monitoring and the development of criteria for evaluating indicators of the quality of life of the population in the municipalities of the region in order to conduct an active social policy in the future.

Objective: to assess the quality of life (QoL) using general and special questionnaires and to identify the relationship between fatigue and sarcopenia (SP) in elderly and senile people.Patients and methods. The cohort study included 230 patients, including 177 women (77%) and 53 men (23%) over 65 years old (median age 75 [68; 79] years). The presence of SP was determined according to the criteria of the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP2, 2018). QoL was studied using the general questionnaires EQ-5D, SF-36 and a special questionnaire SarQoL, the level of fatigue – using the FACIT-F questionnaire. To assess the possibility of using the FACIT-F scale for SP screening, its sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy, positive and negative predictive value were determined, a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (ROC analysis) was constructed, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was calculated.Results and discussion. The assessment of QoL using the EQ-5D and SF-36 questionnaires did not reveal significant differences between the groups of patients with and without SP (p>0.05). When analyzing the state of health in the study cohort using the special SarQoL questionnaire, the overall indicator was 63.12±18.83 points, while in patients with SP it was significantly lower than in patients without SP (50.65±14.23 and 75,10±14.46 points, respectively; p<0.001). The mean score for all domains was also lower in the presence of SP than in its absence (p<0.001).The level of fatigue on the FACIT-F scale ranged from 10 to 52 points and averaged 32.5 [29.1; 35.3] points, while in patients with SP the overall score was lower than in elderly people without SP (25.1 [22.13; 29.23] and 39.8 [36.4; 42.4] points respectively; p<0.001). In patients with severe fatigue, SP was diagnosed 4.6 times (95% confidence interval, CI 2.80–7.57) more often than in those without it (p<0.001). Fatigue was associated with senile age, underweight, falls in the previous year, weak muscle strength, low SPPB test scores and an appendicular muscle mass index, CRP >10 mg/L (p<0.05).The possibility of using the FACIT-F questionnaire for screening patients with SP was evaluated. Its sensitivity reached 76%, specificity – 73%, positive predictive value – 53%, and negative predictive value – 88%, diagnostic accuracy – 74%. The area under the ROC-curve (AUC) was 0.726 (95% CI 0.627–0.826; p<0.0001).Conclusion. It has been shown that the general questionnaires EQ-5D and SF-36 do not reflect the true QoL impairment in SP. A significant deterioration in the state of health in elderly people with SP can be identified by a special SarQol questionnaire. The FACIT-F fatigue scale can also be used to screening in SP.

Political democracy should be equivalent to the economic development of the quality of democracy, economic democracy if not upright, even the owner of the ruling power and money, which is parallel to force global corporatocracy. Consequently, the economic oligarchy preservation reinforces control of production and distribution from upstream to downstream and power monopoly of the market. The implication, increasingly sharp economic disparities, exclusive owner of the money and power become fertile, and the end could jeopardize the harmony of the national economy. The loss of national economic identity that makes people feel lost the “pilot of the state”. What happens then is the autopilot state. Viewing unclear direction of the economy, the national economy should clarify the true figure.
