Co-dependency as a personal characteristic of other family members in these conditions becomes important for rehabilitation and support, as well as therapy for antisocial behavior of addicts.Intention. The study was aimed to analyze the results of empirical and theoretical studies in psychology and related sciences on the phenomenon of codependency and identify genes that are most likely to be associated with codependency, attachment, behavior in relationships and the formation of adaptive and maladaptive codependent behavior strategies.Methodology. A theoretical analysis of the scientific literature on the problem has been carried out using the PubMed database, the Google Academy search platforms, and using the resources of the Scientific Electronic Library (eLIBRARY.ru).Results and Discussion. It is shown that with a complex structure, the codependency has a large number of connections with personality traits, which in turn have biological predictors and are associated with various genes. The results of psychogenetic studies on the role of genes in the formation of emotional and personal characteristics, dependent behavior, emotional attachment and features of human social behavior are described. These are mostly genes associated with the work of neurotransmitter systems and neuropeptide genes.Conclusion. In order to identify the biological determination of codependency, the study of polymorphisms of the DRD2, DAT, and OXTP genes will be the most promising.

The surgical tactics and features of the intensive care of two severely burned firefighters with an unfavorable prognosis, according to the common prognostic scales, are described. The first national experience of large-scale (more than 15 % TBSA) application of novel skin equivalents – dermal regeneration templates is discussed.Results and Discussion. Outcomes of injuries in both cases were favorable. It was possible to avoid severe disability of the patients. This result was achieved through the implementation of modern treatment strategy of critical burns, namely multidisciplinary approach from the moment of admission; early aggressive removal of non-viable tissues, which allows interrupting the pathogenetic mechanism of burn disease; active use of temporary substitutes for the skin, including those of biological origin – the so-called skin equivalents; early restoration of the skin with the priority of functionally active areas (hands, neck, large joints); primary reconstructive surgeries, involving the use of complex plastic methods in the acute period иof injury. Being more resource-demanding, early surgical treatment of burns provides not only reduction of hospital stay, but also a decrease in mortality and improvement in the functional outcomes.Conclusion. The experience of treating these patients demonstrates on the high role of the organization of burn care and the use of new technologies.

The problem of organizing and providing emergency medical care during the medical evacuation of seriously injured in emergency situations who received burns remains relevant up to the present time. The effectiveness of the intensive care performed at the prehospital stage significantly affects the condition of patients and the outcome of the treatment.

At the same time, the preparation and management of patients subject to air medical transportation requires solving a number of problems during the flight.Intention. To analyze the results of the organization and implementation of intensive care over the past 8 years in seriously injured people with burns after emergencies during aeromedical evacuation by a light-class helicopter.Methodology. We analyzed data from the automated information and analytical system “Disaster Medicine of the city of Moscow” of the Moscow Territorial Scientific and Practical Center of Disaster Medicine (CEMP) of the Department of Healthcare of the City of Moscow concerning medical evacuation of patients with burns over the past 8 years (2014–2021). Historical, statistical, analytical methods were used in the study.Results and Discussion. The main causes of thermal injury are fires, which rank third in the number of events and the number of victims, and first in the number of deaths. In the structure of victims with thermal trauma, 26 % were in extremely serious and serious condition, of which 2 % needed artificial lung ventilation and tracheal intubation. Indications and features of artificial lung ventilation with tracheal intubation were determined for victims with thermal burns who were subject to medical evacuation by a light-class ambulance helicopter.Conclusion. Aeromedical transportation of a burn patient with adequate therapy is relatively safe and prognostically more effective compared to other methods of medical evacuation.

The low accuracy of deviant behavior (DB) detecting and predicting in military personnel using questionnaire methods underlines the need to search for new, more reliable approaches, in a number of which behavioral methods in the paradigm of Research Domain criteria are of particular interest, because they reveal biological prerequisites for deviant behavior, which is extremely important for improving occupational psychological selection.Intention – to study the features of neurocognitive functions in military personnel with deviant behavior in order to improve the methods of its diagnosis.Methodology. 3 groups of servicemen were examined: 1 st (n = 16) – with a predominance of internalizing behavior (suicidal forms of DB, F43.20 by ICD-10); 2nd (n = 21) – with externalizing patterns of behavior (addictive and asocial forms of DB, F34.0, F43.24, F61.0 by ICD-10); 3rd (n = 24) – mentally healthy servicemen. The following methods were used: “Stop signal”, Stroop test, “Affective priming”; 4) Iowa gambling task.Results and Discussion. The examination revealed the following: 1) according to the “Stop signal” test: in groups 1 and 2, there was a predominance of the priority of response speed over accuracy with a reduced response time in case of action and inaction reactions; 2) according to the Stroop test: in groups 1 and 2, increased number of errors in congruent responses and the average reaction time in congruent and incongruent types of responses, as well as the Stroop effect magnitudes were detected; 3) according to the “Affective priming” method: in groups 1 and 2, there was a reduced difference in the time of response during congruent and incongruent preconditioning to negative and positive stimuli; 4) according to the Iowa gambling task: the ability to learn based on emotional feedback in groups 1 and 2 was significantly lower than in group 3; sensitivity to punishment was also maximum in group 3, in group 1 it was significantly lower, while in group 2 it was of a paradoxical, inverted nature.Conclusion. The neurobiological basis for increased predisposition to deviant behavior is excessive impulsivity due to a deficit in cognitive and behavioral inhibition, as well as a lower sensitivity of the affective response system.
