The management of the educational process for modern students is associated with the active and prolonged use of digital technologies and devices. If the studies of the past years have given a detailed and comprehensive assessment of hygienic risk factors in the traditional management of the educational process, now there is a need to clarify the hygienic safety of the management of the educational process in remote form and when using digital devices in teaching against the background of a high commitment of children and adolescents to use gadgets at leisure. \u0000Materials and methods. A comparative analysis of the intensity of the educational process in primary school students according to the federal recommendations of the Federal State Educational Institution “All-Russian Development Society for School and University Medicine and Health”-16-2015 (version 1.1) “Hygienic assessment of the intensity of students’ learning activities” in traditional and distance education forms according to the timing of seventy five lessons in mathematics and Russian language. \u0000Results. In the distance learning form, compared with the traditional one, the intensity of educational work was found to increase from 2.9±0.05 points (class 3.1) to 3.4±0.02 points (class 3.1), p≤0.05 due to intense 2 degrees of intellectual loads (3.6±0.01 points), sensory loads (3.6±0.03 points), monotony (3.7±0.03 points) and intensity of the 1st degree of the mode of educational activity (3.1±0.03 points). The increase in sensory loads was associated with the use of information and communication tools during training, such as a computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone. Up to 15.3% of students during the traditional period and 35.5% of students during the distance education period used smartphones prohibited for teaching. The majority of students in the distance study form used a computer in 75.6% of cases, every third student (35.4%) used a laptop, with the traditional form of education, the proportion of students who used computers and laptops in teaching was 12.3–15.6%. \u0000Limitations. The study on the assessment of the intensity of the educational process in various forms of education was limited by the fact that the sample was limited to primary school students, which does not allow extrapolating them to the total population of middle and senior level students. The timing of the intensity of educational activity in the lessons of mathematics and Russian language, which relate to difficult subjects, could determine a higher intensity of the educational process than if the assessment took into account all subjects. \u0000Conclusion. The obtained data especially emphasize the relevance of the adopted hygienic standards governing the total time of using information and communication tools both during the school day in the classroom and taking into account the entire time budget per day, and the need to control their use by students.","PeriodicalId":12550,"journal":{"name":"Gigiena i sanitariia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42202792","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cardiopulmonary disorders should be considered as a complex process, in the pathogenesis of which excess body weight can play an important role. Without timely prevention, the processes of inflammation and hypoxia, characteristic of abdominal obesity, can accelerate the development of cardiopulmonary insufficiency. This is especially relevant for workers in metallurgical industries with harmful working conditions. \u0000Materials and methods. The study included one hundred thirteen long-term labour experience workers of the main occupations of aluminum production and 66 workers of the paramilitary mine rescue brigade. The average age of metallurgists was 47.81±0.43 years, mine rescuers – 46.91± 0.53 years, p=0.213. \u0000All the subjects underwent a study of the external respiration function and echocardiography according to standard methods. \u0000Results. In persons with abdominal obesity the average values of the vital lung capacity were significantly lower: 83.59±2.19% vs. 91.16±1.31% (p=0.0021) among metallurgists and 86.43±2.67% vs. 94.63±1.43% (p=0.0041) among the workers of the paramilitary mine rescue brigade, a similar pattern was revealed in terms of the forced exhalation volume for the first second – 77.1±2.41 vs. 88.24±1.38% (p=0.00003) and 85.6±3.13% vs. 93.34±1.31% (p=0.0094), respectively. \u0000The studied average values of the indices of diastolic function of the right ventricle were typical for the development of its dysfunction in metallurgists, and also indicated the absence of the influence of abdominal obesity on them in all examined subjects. \u0000Limitations. The study was limited by the number of the examined persons undergoing periodic medical examination at the Research Institute for Complex Problems of Hygiene and Occupational Diseases. \u0000Conclusion. Lower respiratory indices were recorded in persons with abdominal obesity, while obstructive ventilation disorders were detected only in aluminum production workers. Abdominal obesity was not associated with the indices of diastolic function of the right ventricle. The tendency to the formation of diastolic dysfunction of the right ventricle had been noted in the workers of the main occupations of aluminum production.","PeriodicalId":12550,"journal":{"name":"Gigiena i sanitariia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70834741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results of the study of the nature of the formation of the thermal state in workers under the influence of extreme levels of the heating microclimate with multifactorial exposure against the background of heavy physical labour, justify the need to develop and experimentally evaluate a set of preventive measures. Such measures need to prevent chronic overheating, with the mandatory use by workers of modern effective personal protective equipment from infrared radiation. \u0000The purpose of the study – the study of the effectiveness of personal protective equipment made of metallized materials in real production conditions, for the prevention of chronic overheating from exposure to extreme levels of infrared radiation with multifactorial exposure against the background of heavy physical labour. \u0000Materials and methods. To assess the possibility of using personal protective equipment in the conditions of modern forging and pressing production, there were taken protective clothing sets made of the material OXA-440, consisting of a cotton-asbestos lining and a metallized material with an aluminum surface. In the manufacture of prototypes of workwear, the topography and the estimated area of the irradiated area of the body surface, and the moisture and air tightness of metallized materials, were taken into account. The effectiveness of personal protective equipment was evaluated with taking into account the indicators of the thermal state of the workers of the main occupations who used two sets of the specified protective clothing alternately. The thermal state of the body was studied in accordance with the guidelines of the MUK 4.3.1895-04 and the provisions of the standard GOST R ISO 9886-2008. Studies on the hygienic assessment of workwear were carried out in the cold and warm periods of the year. A questionnaire survey was conducted to subjectively assess the usability, design and protective properties of workwear made of metallized material. \u0000Results. The main sources of thermal radiation in the studied production are incandescent to a temperature of over 1200°C with metal forgings of various lengths and various profile configurations, which largely determine the variability in the degree of radiation intensity of the radiant energy flow at the workplaces of blacksmiths and heaters. The formed thermal state of the workers of the specified occupational groups, dressed in standard cotton workwear, during the performance of the main work operations during the first half of the working shift in the cold and warm periods of the year, is estimated as the maximum permissible, requiring a limit of working time – no more than one hour per working shift. The use of workwear made of metallized materials in the cold period of the year led to a slight improvement in the thermal condition, which allowed to prolong the time spent at the workplace to 2 hours.

Emotional burnout is a condition common among workers in “helping” occupations. The syndrome of emotional burnout among workers of the main occupations of the coal industry has not been studied enough, especially in terms of its relationship with such indicators of mental health as personal, situational anxiety and alexithymia. The relationship between emotional burnout syndrome and risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases has not been sufficiently studied. \u0000The purpose of the study to investigate the relationship of emotional burnout syndrome with the level of personal, situational anxiety and alexithymia, and the frequency of risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases, such as smoking, overweight, arterial hypertension and low physical activity in coal industry workers with occupational diseases. \u0000Materials and methods. Two hundred seventy-two coal miners with occupational diseases (dust lung pathology, diseases of the musculoskeletal system, vibration disease) were examined using questionnaires by V.V.
