Background. In the Russian Federation, the prevalence of falls and fractures in older people in the general population is unknown. Single studies have been carried out on small samples (hospitalized patients, patients with diabetes mellitus etc.). Objective. To investigate history of low-energy fractures, frequency of falls in the past year and their associations with other geriatric syndromes (GS) in subjects aged ≥65 years.Materials and methods. We examined 4308 subjects (30% of men) aged 65 to 107 years (mean age 78 ± 8 years) in 11 regions of the Russian Federation, who were divided into 3 age groups (65-74, 75-84 and ≥85 years old). All participants underwent comprehensive geriatric assessment, which consisted of two stages: 1) survey on a specially designed questionnaire; 2) physical examination.Results. The frequency of falls over the past year was 30%, including 25,7% — in subjects aged 65-74 yrs, 29,8% — 75-84 yrs, 37,3% — ≥85 yrs (p for trend <0,001). Of these, 62% of participants fell 1 time, 38% — 2 times or more. With the same frequency, the subjects fell at home (41%) and on the street (42%), 17% of subjects fell both at home and on the street. A history of low-energy fractures was found in 17% of the participants, among which the most frequent (63%) were fractures of the radius. Univariate regression analysis with sex and age (as a discret variable) adjustment, where the falls in the past year were considered as the dependent variable, and GS as independent one, demonstrated that all GS were associated with falls in the past year with odds ratios (ORs) ranging from 1,25 to 3,13. Multivariate regression analysis with age and sex adjustment showed that independent predictors of falls were female gender (ORs 1,51; 95% confidence interval 1,26-1,82; р<0,001) and 6 GS (malnutrition, depression, urinary and fecal incontinence, chronic pain and dependence in instrumental activities in daily life) with a 1,3-2,4 times increase of falls risk.Conclusion. In EVKALIPT study we firstly obtained the domestic data on the prevalence of falls and low-energy fractures history in subjects aged >65 years in the general population and studied associations between falls in the past year and other geriatric syndromes.

July 6, 2021 dates 30 years since the appearance of the first law on local self-government in the modern history of Russia. Over the past period, the Russian state and the Russian legal system have undergone a difficult path to modernization of the legislation on local self-government and its approbation to actual reality. During this historical period, Russian Federation adopted the Constitution, the text of which was significantly transformed in 2020; local self-government, in addition to the mentioned law of 1991, incorporated all the «joys and hardships» from the federal laws «On General Principles of the organization of Local Self-Government in the Russian Federation» of 1995 and 2003. This article presents a comparative legal analysis of certain provisions of federal laws on local selfgovernment, which have been regulating for 30 years at the level of the federal legislator the issues of local self-government in the Russian Federation as one of the fundamental constitutional values of modern democratic states. The author makes a disappointing conclusion that the named constitutional value has been significantly changed both in form and content over the past historical period of the development of the Russian statehood. This predetermined the situation of «crisis» of the current state of local self-government in the Russian Federation and the possibility of its «dissolution» with the emergence of a constitutional category «a unified system of public power».

This review article provides a brief analysis of the history of the regulation of the fundamental criteria for assessing the quality of road bitumen materials in the Russian Federation over the past decades. With an emphasis on their rheological characteristics, which determine the durability of asphalt concrete pavements, in which the binder "works" in a film state. This allows researchers to reasonably determine the directions for further research to improve the quality of road binders. Special attention is paid to the relevance and expediency of developments for the creation of premium grades of polymer bitumen binders and the introduction of technologies for stable production at refineries of ordinary binders from raw materials of various genesis. The immediate need for organizing the production of binders according to the SuperPave system was also noted.
