Objective: The objective is to identify the intermediate results of the national project "Health" in conditions of unfavorable ecological situation in the Orenburg region.

Materials and methods: The analysis was conducted on the basis of primary disability of the adult population in Russia, the Volga Federal district and Orenburg region, published in the analytical collections of Federal State Institution the Main Office of Medical and Social Examination and also on the basis of the results obtained by the method of sampling results of examination of citizens with respiratory tract diseases from the “Protocols of the meeting on examination” office branches “The Main Office of Medical and Social Examination in Orenburg region”.

Results: In the dynamics of 2008-2010 the decreased regional indicators of primary disability due to respiratory diseases is demonstrated. Dynamics of decline of the regional level by 10 thousand of adult population is more active than in Russia and the Volga Federal district (in Russia and the Volga Federal district for 0,3-13,6%, in the region for 1,1-34,3%). Positive dynamics was reflected in the ranking of the site of the regional level of primary disability of adults in respiratory diseases in Russia and the Volga region with its movement in Russia from the 9th place on the 15th and in the Volga Federal district from 2nd to the 5th. Disability due to respiratory diseases approximately in 96% of cases is due to chronic obstructive bronchitis and bronchial asthma. Of them in 2 times more often the disability occurs due to chronic obstructive bronchitis and due to this disease the most difficult group of disability is established. In 2010 the specific weight of the first group of disability due to chronic obstructive bronchitis is17 times higher than the specific weight causes of bronchial asthma (5,5% vs. 0,3%). Less specific weight of the first group of disability due to chronic obstructive bronchitis in 2008-2009 is the result of applicable in those years law that shared the disability group on the degree of restriction of labour activities. Regarding respiratory diseases in the region the specific weight of disability group III is lower; it was low as possible in 2010: in RF - 65,5%, in Volga region - 67%, in region – 48,3%; in the prognostic plan it is a negative picture.

Conclusions: The state of the ecological situation didn’t affect on the effectiveness of the national project "Health" in part of "respiratory diseases". Systemic view on medical and social examination of patients with chronic obstructive bronchitis in advanced stages was revealed; additional measures must be done by the Ministry of Health of the region for timely disease identification, qualified annual medical examination and improving of efficiency of medical rehabilitation.

Objective: The objective is to assess the incidence of persons evacuated from the 30-km zone of the Chernobyl nuclear power station, its structure, including the incidence of diseases of the circulatory system and malignant neoplasms, and the influence of biological factors such as age and gender by comparative evaluation of morbidity of evacuated men and women, including age-specific indicators in dynamics in 1988-2008.

Materials and methods: The object of the study is the incidence of all diseases and individual classes of diseases in persons evacuated from the 30-km zone of the Chernobyl nuclear power station, men and women who are registered in a Branch register of persons exposed to radiation from the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power station.

Results: The effect of age and sex factors on morbidity was determined. The higher incidence of all diseases in liquidators-women compared with men over the study period 1988-2008 was revealed. The incidence of all diseases aged 18-29 of all age groups in the first ten years after the accident was the greatest. The incidence of all diseases of the studied cohort of individuals over the study period decreased from 626,5 to 276,3 per 1000 people (in 2.3 times). This decrease morbidity was caused by the decrease in the incidence of diseases of the respiratory system of evacuated persons. At the same time an increase in the incidence of malignant neoplasms and diseases of the circulatory system among evacuated persons is shown.

Conclusions: The growth of detecting neoplasms among the evacuated people from the 30-km zone of the Chernobyl nuclear power station can be explained by the ageing of the population. The increase in the incidence of circulatory system diseases within 20 years after the Chernobyl accident is probably due to the fact that minor groups of the target population with respect to this class of diseases have not been exhausted.

Annotation:

According to analysis of literary data it was determined that lead is actively used in the national economy and in household activities, despite the fact that refers to the substances of high toxicity. This requires special attention to the development of measures for the prevention and treatment of lead intoxications. Improvement of health interventions should be aimed at early diagnostics of poisoning, especially their prenosological forms. The basis for early diagnostics should be the combination of a differential diagnosis and results of specific and additional laboratory studies of biological materials. Early diagnosis according to manifestations of toxicity of lead does not enable further progression of poisoning and allows to treat already developed intoxication. The success of prevention and treatment is provided by a complex of activities. First of all it is enterosorption. Enterosorbents (alginates and pectin’s) have high selectivity to lead, forming nontoxic compounds, which are excreted from the body. Antidote therapy is presented by chelate compounds that form with lead the low-dissociating complexes, quickly eliminated from the body. Complex therapy also includes adjuvant therapy, consisting of microelements and vitamins. Treatment and prophylactic nutrition, physiotherapy and medical gymnastics are also aimed to increase elimination of lead from the body.

Objective: The objective is to obtain data about the level of radon exposure on the population.

Methods: Examinations were conducted by integral track method using the tracking chambers REI-4 from the TREK-REI-1M kit with the duration of exposure 2-4 months. Directly measured volumetric activity of radon and equivalent equilibrium volume activity of radon was calculated using a factor of equilibrium F=0,5. Effective dose from radon was calculated using a dose coefficient 9*10-6mSv / (h*Bq/m3). The results were recorded in the database.

Results: Examinations of the placements regarding radon concentration held in settlements of 15 administrative units in several seasons in 2007-2011. Total number of measurements is about 2800. For all examined points there are presented the distribution of density and the average values of equivalent equilibrium volume activity of radon. For a number of settlements the average annual radiation dose of the population from radon was calculated. It is shown that, on the contrary to established opinion, in the examined territories there is no any prevalence regarding increase in the “winter” value of equivalent equilibrium volume activity of radon over the “summer”. For several settlements there is even opposite picture.

Conclusions: In the course of inspections methodological and organizational aspects of conducting large-scale research of radon exposure on the population were worked out. The comparison of mean values of equivalent equilibrium volume activity of radon in examined settlements with the average Russian value (27 Bq/m3) allows to conclude that the risk of radon exposure to the population of the cities of Angarsk, Volgodonsk, Desnogorsk, Zelenogorsk, Polar dawns, Severodvinsk and Snezhnogorsk can be considered as accepted. In cities Glazov, Zheleznogorsk, Miass, Ozersk and Snezhinsk, and in the Kurgan region the examination have to be continued taking into account the received results in a territorial binding to areas of settlements.

Objective: The objective is the clinical trial regarding in formativeness of molecular biomarker, the ratio of сAMP/cGMP, for prediction of malignant tumors in the cohort of professional employees of Industrial Union “Mayak”. This marker is the basis of our method of preclinical diagnostics of tumor growth in experimental animals (Patent 1 704 563 USSR, MKI 5G 01 N 33/48. Method of detection of the tumor process in experimental animals, 1992).

Materials and Methods: The study Protocol provides the establishment of the monitoring group (based on the existence of excess radiation exposure in the process of professional activity at Industrial Union "Mayak"); carrying out biochemical monitoring on test ratio of сAMP/cGMP in urine (once every 6 months); the selection of a subgroup of persons with persistently elevated сAMP/cGMP test (positive test).

Results: Registration of a positive сAMP/cGMP test allowed from monitoring group (282 people) to select “Test-positive group” of 48 people. By the end of the 7-year follow-up period cumulative output of malignant tumors in “Test-positive group” was significantly higher than that of the rest of the examined contingent in 3 times (relative risk of malignant tumor development was 3,2; DI=1,2 - 8,4). The positive test was accompanied by 100% of hemoblastoses (chronic lymphocytic leukemia and acute myelogenous leukemia), 50% of basal cell carcinoma and 25% of solid tumors.

Conclusions: Steadily increased ratio of сAMP/cGMP in the urine can be considered as a prognostic biomarker; patients should be divided into categories with different probability of oncological pathology. The introduction of the test in clinical practice will ultimately increase the number of patients with detected tumors at early stages, which is an important target indicator of improvement of diagnostics of malignant tumors among the personnel of nuclear-hazardous enterprises.
