This problem is quite relevant in Georgia, where 94.2% of the population suffers from some kind of oral disease. 93.7% of interviewed women and 95.3% of men have symptoms of oral diseases. The rate of prevalence of oral diseases in different age groups also varies within 90-95%. It varies from 91.2% to 95.8% by regions. Therefore, its treatment and prevention are important nowadays. However, the majority of the population (44.9% of people with oral diseases) cannot afford to visit a dentist due to low income. According to the survey, when asked to respondents, what is the main reason for not visiting to the dentist, they answer the lack of money needed for treatment. 8.9% of respondents believe that dental services are fully accessible in Georgia, 14.4% think that they are more accessible than inaccessible; 25.7% believe that there is an average level of accessibility; 34.2% consider it more inaccessible than accessible and 16.8% think it is fully inaccessible.","PeriodicalId":261879,"journal":{"name":"MODERN ISSUES OF MEDICINE AND MANAGEMENT","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122628969","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}

In 1992-1999, the incidence rate reached its maximum in 1993 (2.3 per 100,000 population), and in 2017-2021 it did not exceed one. In the second reporting period in 2020, the maximum rate was recorded in the conditions of the coronavirus pandemic (0.36), which should be due to the prolonged interaction of children with healthy carriers. The age index in both reporting periods is for children aged 0-4 and was 21.4 and 8.81, respectively. Seasonality occurs in winter-spring in the second reference period, although in the first reference period it occurs at all times of the year, which can be explained by the failure of preventive measures in the 90s. The rate of lethality in the first reporting period is almost three times less than in the second reporting period, which may be the reason for not registering deaths in the 90s. We consider it appropriate to introduce vaccination in risk groups.","PeriodicalId":261879,"journal":{"name":"MODERN ISSUES OF MEDICINE AND MANAGEMENT","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125430014","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}

We have to remind that forms of “response reaction” are not always caused by question that is another factor related to the specificity of responses.

Aim: The aim of our research is to study a structural correlation and morphological features of dislocation process during temporal lobe tumors for definition optimal surgical treatment. Methods: We studied 85 dislocation cases of sectional material during temporal lobe tumors (53 males and 32 famales). All material of tumors were based on the microscope, macroscope and electro-microscope examination of operative and sectional material and were verified by many frontal and sagittal incisions of the brain. Results: In medio-basal localization of tumors we didn’t meet any benign tumors.

Purpose: The main aim of this paper is to explore the relationship between Self- Management Skills (SMS) and Demographic Factors (DF) among managers in Kathmandu- based organizations. Methods: The study utilized a convenience sampling approach and a cross-sectional method with respondents (n=429)- managers, employing online questionnaires due to COVID-19. The study was tested for reliability and validity. SMS questions with five-point scales were used, resulting in 50 Self-Management Skills Scores (SMSS). A score of > 25 indicated a high score, while <25 indicated below-average scores. Descriptive and regression analyses were used to analyze the data. Findings: The results revealed that 63.1% of the managers had Self-Management Skills Scores (SMSS) below the average level. Demographic factors such as age, gender, and SMS training were correlated with SMS. Research limitations/Practical Implications: There are limitations with self-reported data, single data collection, and unknown total population. According to the study, managers’ SMS competence is influenced by their SMS training, age, and gender. Organizations should invest in training and development to improve managerial skills, especially in the healthcare sector.

Coronavirus infection affects not only physical health but also causes a significant threat to mental health. Objective of the study was to investigate the impact of the coronavirus infection and vaccination against coronavirus infection on the menstrual cycle and mental health of young Georgian women and establish the relationship between them. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted by administering online questionnaires to young women (18-25 years) in Georgia. Through questionnaires, we determined the characteristics of the menstrual cycle, the psychological state of the participants before being infected with the coronavirus, in the period 3-6 months after the infection and after the vaccination against the coronavirus infection. Results: 48.2 % of participants reported significant changes in their menstrual cycle after the coronavirus infection. Participants' mean menstrual cycle length significantly increased after 3 months of coronavirus infection, p<0.05. Participants' mean menstrual cycle length before, and 6 months after the coronavirus infection did not differ significantly. Duration of menstruation before the pandemic was significantly shorter than after 3 and 6 months of infection, p<0.05. The prevalence of premenstrual symptoms components and dysmenorrhea was significantly increased after 3 and 6 months of the coronavirus infection, p<0.05. Changes in the menstrual cycle within 3 months after vaccination were found in 58.8% of cases, the severity of which significantly decreased 6 months after vaccination, p<0.001.
