Road traffic accidents cause enormous material and moral damage both to the society as a whole and to individual citizens. According to the data, the Russian Federation is among countries with highest road traffic mortality rates within European Region of the World Health Organization.The objective of the study was to attempt to identify possible causes of high mortality rates from traffic accidents on the roads of the Russian Federation and to reveal ways to reduce those rates.To that purpose a survey of citizens of the Russian Federation who are driver’s license owners and who are experienced drivers was conducted in different regions of the country. The results identified low medical literacy in terms of provision of first aid to the injured persons as one of the causes.Other factors, potentially capable to reduce the number of fatalities in road traffic accidents, once their performance indicators improve, have also been considered. Those indicators comprise time of arrival of ambulance crews at the site of an accident with enough medical equipment and medicines, interaction of emergency services, growth of efficiency of training in providing primary medical care at driving schools.

Background: Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) incidence has been increasing steadily around the world. The aim of the study is to describe geographic trends in incidence and mortality of NMSC in Russia between 2007 and 2017 and compare findings to other European countries. Methods: We used geospatial analysis to map the incident cases and descriptive statistical analysis to analyze trends. Additionally, we assessed the relationship between ethnicity, geographic latitude/longitude, and NMSC incidence/mortality rates. We retrospectively analyzed the data from the Moscow Oncology Research Institute, Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, for 2007–2017. Routine methods of descriptive epidemiology were used to study incidence and mortality rates by age groups, years, and jurisdictions (i.e., Federal Districts and Federal Subjects). Results: In total, 733,723 patients were diagnosed with NMSC in Russia over the period 2007–2017, of whom 63% were women. The overall age-standardized incidence and mortality rates were 29.64/100,000 and 0.70/100,000, respectively. There was a consistent increase in age-standardized incidence rates over the study period, with a decreasing mortality rate. Geographic mapping revealed north-to-south and east-to-west gradients for NMSC. Conclusions: This study demonstrated longitudinal trends for NMSC incidence in Russia documenting that skin phototype, latitude/longitude, climate zones, and cultural practices remain dominant risk factors defining the epidemiology of NMSC. Moreover, this work identified several regions in the country (i.e., Republic of Adygea, Samara, Krasnodar Krai, etc.), where patient education/sun awareness campaigns will be useful to help reduce the risk of this malignancy.

Aim. To estimate the prevalence and trends of the long-term dynamics of morbidity and mortality associated with various manifestations of HPV infection in Russia in recent years. Materials and methods. We analyzed retrospective data with diagnostic codes related to cervical cancer, penile cancer, anal canal cancer, head and neck cancer (including the oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and larynx), anogenital (venereal) warts from the official statistic of cancer register and STIs using incidence and mortality rates in Russia between January 2007 and December 2016 and retrospective data with diagnostic codes related to cancer of the vulva and cancer of the vagina between January 2011 and December 2016. Based on the available data on the involvement of HPV in the occurrence of pathological changes, the annual generalized indices for HPV-associated neoplasms were calculated. Results. The estimated number of HPV-associated lesions in the Russian Federation for 2007-2016 amounted to 5 761 170 cases, of which 224 630 - among men and 5 536 540 - among women. The estimated number of deaths from HPV-associated cancers was 109 510 cases, of which 32 080 - among men and 77 430 - among women. The estimated incidence of HPV-associated cancers neoplasms during this period increased by 10% among the male population and by 22% among the female population, reaching 8.0 cases per 100 000 male population in 2016 and 25.2 cases per 100 thousand female population. The death rate from HPV-associated cancers did not change significantly, and in 2016 it was 4.9 cases per 100 thousand male population and 10.2 cases per 100 thousand female population. Conclusion. There is an increase in morbidity and stabilization of mortality rates from HPV-associated cancers for both female and male populations, and a decrease in the incidence of anogenital (venereal) warts.

Malignant neoplasms are an actual problem due to their high prevalence, high level of disability, tendency to increase. The purpose of the study is the segmentation of the territories of the Republic of Bashkortostan (RB) by the level of mortality from malignant neoplasms (MN) as a whole by municipalities, as well as by gender and by localizations of malignant neoplasms. Material and methods. The data of official statistics of the Territorial body of the Federal State Statistics Service of the Republic of Belarus (Table C 51), Rosstat were analyzed. The study was conducted using k-means cluster analysis and rating, implemented in the Statistica system. Results. There is a significant increase in the death rate of the entire population of ZN in 41 municipalities. Analysis of standardized mortality rates shows that the mortality rate per 100 thousand of the population in the Republic of Belarus is lower than similar indicators in the Russian Federation. The exception is mortality in esophageal cancer, which is higher in both men and women than in the Russian Federation. It has been established that the regions of the fourth and fifth clusters are unfavorable in terms of mortality from MN. Discussion. Revealed a pronounced uneven distribution of the territory of the Republic of Belarus with a tendency to an increase in mortality from MN in many territories. It is possible that the main reasons for the increase in mortality rates are worsening socio-economic conditions, lower living standards, increased chemical stress in urbanized areas (air pollution), as well as insufficient promotion of healthy lifestyles among the population, preventive knowledge, and health problems. care, its poor quality. Conclusion. As a result of the analysis, it was possible to establish that cluster analysis allows us to identify areas that have similar problems related to the level and trends of mortality from malignant tumors.

Aim. To comparatively analyze the registered mortality rates from coronary heart disease (CHD) as a whole, as well as myocardial infarction (MI) and other acute forms of CHD during a 15-year period in the Russian Federation (RF, 2000—2014) and the United States of America (USA, 1999-2013). Materials and methods. Primary data were obtained from the database of the RF State Statistics Service, the World Health Organization Mortality Database, Human Mortality Database, then converted into standardized mortality rates and are presented in three age groups (30+, 30-49, and 50+ years old) in men and women separately. Results. The analysis revealed a substantial excess of the registered mortality rates from CHD in the RF versus in the USA, as well as a lower incidence of MI and a higher incidence of other acute CHD forms registered as the cause of death. It also showed considerable differences in the structure of registered types of MI as the cause of mortality. Conclusion. The differences found in the mortality rates from CHD, MI, and other acute forms of CHD in the RF and the USA can be explained by objective (the higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors, the higher and earlier incidence of CHD in the RF, as well as differences in the organization of medical care and, as a result, actually higher mortality rates from CHD in Russia) and subjective (differences in approaches to statistically developing a population-based mortality rate, as well as defects in filling out the medical documents and coding the causes of death) factors.
