Currently, there are no clear definitions of unacceptable worker health risk criteria, which are related to incidence indicators of further development of already formed occupational diseases. It refers to cases when a worker with a diagnosed occupational disease continues to work under harmful occupational factor exposure which has caused occupational pathology development.
 Materials and methods. According to the archive materials of occupational pathology clinics, risk assessment of further development of occupational disease caused by physical overload, in a group of patients with diagnosed occupational disease, being under follow-up and proceeding their working activity, was carried out
 Results. Regulatory documents in the field of occupational fitness expertise, currently effective in Russian Federation, provide the possibility of continuing work under the same conditions for patients with diagnosed occupational disease. However, such policy results in the loss of right to get payment for medical rehabilitation among occupational disease patients. Based on epidemiological survey findings, procedural approaches to assessing the risk of occupational disease deterioration, in case a patient proceeding to work under the same conditions of exposure to adverse occupational factors, as unacceptable, are considered. 
 Limitations. In patients with occupational pathology of a different profile, working in other conditions, other results may be obtained on the risk of disease progression with continued work.
 Conclusions. It is necessary to create and implement an official uniform system for qualifying risk for the development of occupational pathology in patients going on to work in adverse conditions. At the first stage an assessment of risk for the development of these health disturbances, based on the value of occupational morbidity rate index, which takes into account both, the incidence of negative effect on worker’s health, and the severity of health disturbances, can be used.","PeriodicalId":12550,"journal":{"name":"Gigiena i sanitariia","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135148705","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 strategy for the development of transport infrastructure in Russia involves the construction of railway tracks, including for high-speed traffic. The noise created by rail transport creates uncomfortable living conditions for citizens. One of the most common methods of noise reduction in the way of its propagation is the installation of acoustic screens. 
 The purpose of the work. To evaluate the effectiveness of acoustic screens used to reduce noise from linear objects of railway transport.
 Materials and methods. To evaluate the effectiveness of acoustic screens in the reverberation chamber, a study of six types of materials most commonly used for their construction was conducted. Experimental studies calculations were carried out in accordance with the requirements of current regulatory and technical documentation.
 Results. Experimental studies have shown air noise isolation levels to vary from 27 dBA to 44 dBA. In real conditions, the long-wave part of the noise spectrum of railway transport bends around the screen, forming an acoustic shadow. The calculated acoustic shadow from the AE for non-electrified tracks is 45.95 m from the screen, for electrified tracks – 40.56 m. The efficiency of acoustic screens was shown to decrease with increasing train speed. 
 Limitations. The limitations are determined by the value of the calculated uncertainty indicator obtained by analyzing the results of acoustic measurements.
 Conclusion. The use of acoustic screens as the main noise protection measure has little prospect in newly built-up areas with high-rise residential and public buildings, and in the conditions of the prospect of intensive development of high-speed rail traffic. The procedure for establishing the estimated size of the distance from the railway tracks, ensuring compliance with the requirements of sanitary and epidemiological well-being, needs a clear regulation of the list and quality

Missed pregnancy, as a rule, is caused by a combination of several factors. Exogenous factors can have a teratogenic effect, leading to the occurrence of mutations of varying severity. In such case at the early stages of embryogenesis, serious disturbances occur, leading to a halt in the pregnancy development. The system of their biotransformation is responsible for the elimination of xenobiotics from the body, the inadequate functioning of which increases the activity of mutagenesis, which may raise the risk of breast cancer.
 Materials and methods. One hundred thirty four women were examined. The first group included 63 women, 28 of them were diagnosed with fetal egg death in primigravida young women, in 35 women the first pregnancy ended with physiological childbirth. The second group included 71 woman, 33 of them were diagnosed with a malignant breast neoplasm, 38 had no suspicion of breast cancer (BC) according to the results of mammography. Polymorphisms of the CYP1A2*1F gene of the xenobiotic biotransformation system in these groups were determined by polymerase chain reaction.
 Results. In the group of women with a missed first pregnancy, a statistically reliable association of a high risk of the fetal egg death with the A/A CYP1A2*1F genotype and resistance to this pathology in the case of the C/A CYP1A2*1F polymorphism was revealed. In the group of BC women, the association of a high risk of developing a malignant neoplasm with the A/A CYP1A2*1F genotype and resistance to the development of the disease in the presence of C/A CYP1A2*1F polymorphism was shown.
 Limitations. The study was limited by the number of samples, there is no data on polymorphisms of the BRCA-1, BRCA-2 genes.
 Conclusion. The results obtained will allow not only adjusting the tactics of pregnancy management in women with a high risk of the fetal egg death or the selection of pharmacological drugs in the treatment of BC under the conditions of serious environmental stress, but also developing preventive measures to reduce the risk of these pathologies.","PeriodicalId":12550,"journal":{"name":"Gigiena i sanitariia","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135149651","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 causal association of infertility risk, complicated course and outcomes of pregnancy, as well as maternal, perinatal and neonatal mortality, with the lag-effects of cooling meteorological factors, is the least studied problem in occupational health. The national legal acts regulating occupational health issues do not classify the performance of labour operations in a low-temperature environment as work hazardous to reproductive health. 
 The purpose of the study. Based on an assessment of the likelihood of pregnancy complications in women engaged in labour operations in open areas or in unheated workrooms in cold climate regions, to develop recommendations for improving state regulation measures aimed at maintaining reproductive health and reducing reproductive losses in female workers employed in these regions. 
 Materials and methods. A questionnaire survey was conducted among two hundred forty six female workers of childbearing age performing labour operations in an open area or in unheated workrooms. As methods of statistical processing, conventional statistical methods were used using a personal computer with installed Microsoft software products (Microsoft Excel 2013) and application software (Statistica v.12). 
 Results. Performing labour operations in a cold environment is associated with a statistically significant higher prevalence of pregnancy complications in female workers engaged in cold season labour operations in open areas or unheated workrooms as long as from 1 to -3 hours, and especially more than 3 hours per work shift. Among the population living in the region of the Pechora coal basin, the risks of crisis phenomena in demographic development remain, which are mainly due to an increase in the frequency of pregnancy complications and, above all, due to high level of fetal and infant losses. 
 Conclusion. To solve one of the main tasks of national security to prevent further depopulation of the Arctic regions, in addition to socio-economic measures to preserve the population and increase the total fertility rate, it is necessary to improve the regulatory legal acts focused on the protection of the reproductive health of women working in a cold environment.

The work is dedicated to the parameterization of the COVID-19 epidemic process, taking into account the specifics of the Russian Federation regions. 
 Purpose of study is the analysis of the spatio-temporal distribution of heterogeneous indicators of the spread of COVID-19 based on the formalization and parametrization of waves of the epidemic process, bearing in mind regional specifics.
 Materials and methods. SIR (+L) model as a modification of the classic SIR model, reflecting the trend in the transition of the susceptible to the action of the virus (S – susceptible) population to the group of infected (I – infected), recovered (R – recovered) and the dead (L – letal) was used as a basic model of the epidemic process.
 Results. Time ranges of activation of the epidemic process in the regions of the Russian Federation, corresponding to waves of domination of certain strains of the virus, have been allocated on the basis of the analysis of time series COVID-19 morbidity with a week period of averaging. In total, starting from September 6, 2020 and ending on February 25, 2023, four epidemic waves have been allocated for each region. Analysis of SIR (+L) model parameters for each wave by regions of the Russian Federation made it possible to establish a number of characteristic trends and obtain interpretable directions of influence on the epidemic process individual stages, with the subsequent development of systemic strategic decisions on the preservation of population health and its level of safety at the regional and country-wide scale.
 Limitations. The presented modification of the SIR model (SIR (+L) model) is a significant simplification of the real epidemic process and does not allow describing a number of observed effects.
 Conclusion. Based on the results of the parametrization of the epidemic process, the main features and patterns of the spread of the COVID-19, the intensity of recovery and mortality were established. A further direction of research may be the complication of the epidemic process model, the addition of new parameters to it, taking into account the division of the population into gender and age groups, diseases by severity, grouping according to the territorial and social principle, and the identification of the latent morbidity.","PeriodicalId":12550,"journal":{"name":"Gigiena i sanitariia","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135149517","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}

A total of ninty three full-text reports were identified by targeted search, of which 54 fully met these inclusion criteria. Vended water is one of the economically attractive ways to provide affordable drinking water with high organoleptic properties. National laws regulate the quality and safety of vended water differently: in some countries (Malaysia) vended water is regulated in one legal act together with packaged water and is considered as a food product, in others (USA) it is considered as non-communal public water supply, to which US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) requirements are applied. The Russian regulatory and legal framework in relation to vended water is in the process of formation, so far it has a recommendation character. The problem of microbiological safety of vended water is global. In the studies conducted, the safety of vended water was associated not only with the quality of water from the source of water supply and the method (or lack) of water treatment, but also with the location and design of water dispensers, the health status and hygiene skills of sellers/manufectures, and the hygiene skills of consumers, including cleanliness of hands and condition of containers (often reusable). The studies noted the importance of the quality of maintenance, disinfection of aquamats and quality control of vending water to ensure water quality and safety.
