Gevorgian","doi":"10.17816/rfd631886","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17816/rfd631886","url":null,"abstract":"BACKGROUND: Taking into account the importance of quitting smoking of any nicotine-containing products by young people in various social groups, a comparative analysis of the prevalence of smoking tobacco and nicotine-containing products among students of medical and technical universities in St. Petersburg was carried out. \u0000AIM: To compare the prevalence and structure of consumption of tobacco and nicotine-containing products, as well as the smoking behavior of students at medical and technical universities. \u0000MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional cross-sectional study of a random sample of student groups included 1,105 respondents. \u0000RESULTS: The prevalence of tobacco smoking among students at a technical university was 2 times higher than at a medical university (p 0.01). Cigarette smoking was also more often noted at the onset of smoking among engineering students and in their families (p 0.05). 17.2% of North-Western State Medical University named after I.I. Mechnikov students and 14.2% of Saint Petersburg Electrotechnical University “LETI” named after V.I. Ulyanov (Lenin) students consume nicotine-containing products. Men from the medical university smoke cigarettes significantly more often than women, or use nicotine-containing products, as well as a combination of both. No similar gender differences were found at the technical university. Female doctors used ES more often than women from a technical university at the beginning of smoking (p 0.05). Men at a medical university started using nicotine-containing products more often than women, considering them the least dangerous to health (p 0.05). The example of friends was the most common reason for starting smoking among respondents from both universities (43.9 and 30.8%, respectively). Common risk factors for smoking any product among students of North-Western State Medical University and LETI were boyfriend/girlfriend smoking, smoking among one’s immediate environment. Studying in senior years was a protective factor for girls at a medical university in comparison with students at a technical university (odds ratio 0.48). \u0000CONCLUSIONS: The data obtained on the lower prevalence of tobacco smoking among medical university students compared to technical students may indirectly indicate the latter’s insufficient knowledge about the harmful effects of tobacco smoking on the body. The high prevalence of nicotine-containing products consumption in universities of various fields of study and the lack of significant differences in the share of their consumers can also be interpreted as an underestimation of the health risks of new smoking products. This requires adjustments to educational programs in order to increase students’ awareness of the potential health hazards not only of smoking cigarettes, but also of using any nicotine-containing products.","PeriodicalId":432054,"journal":{"name":"Russian Family Doctor","volume":" 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141833075","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 severity of shortness of breath using the Modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) and Borg scales was assessed upon admission to the sanatorium and a month later. \u0000Results: The mMRC scale was 1.5 ± 1.4 and 2.1 ± 0.2 and the Borg scale was 1.5 ± 1.4 and 2.9 ± 0.2 before treatment respectively in the main group and the comparison group. According to the mMRC scale initially 14.3 and 11.5% of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and the comparison group did not complain of shortness of breath and 50% of pulmonary tuberculosis patients and 42.4% of the comparison group defined it as severe. After a month there were 3 or 4 points on the mMRC scale among pulmonary tuberculosis patients. In the comparison group 3-point shortness of breath decreased by 11.2 times most often indicated shortness of breath with 2 score. According to the Borg scale dyspnea was initially assessed as 3 points at 71.5% pulmonary tuberculosis patients. In the comparison group 67.3% patients had grade 3 dyspnea and 11.5% noted 4–6 grade shortness of breath. After a month the proportion of patients with mild shortness of breath at the pulmonary tuberculosis and comparison groups increased by 4.5 and 3.3 times, respectively, and the frequency of 3-grade shortness of breath decreased by 5 and 3.9 times. \u0000CONCLUSIONS: Major post-tuberculosis changes, smoking and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease determine the severity of breathing discomfort to a greater extent than the experience of new coronavirus infection but rehabilitation treatment are leveled out these differences.

Multimorbid pathology was analyzed by Cumulative Illness Rating Scale (CIRS), asthma control — Asthma Control Questionnaire-5 (ACQ-5), quality of life — Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire with Standardized Activities [AQLQ(S)], anxiety and depression — Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Statistical analysis: Microsoft Excel, Statistica 12.0, Statgraphics XVIII. \u0000RESULTS: Patients with obesity and asthma had more comorbidities (p 0.05). Quality of life in patients with high and normal body weight depended on the level of control and the number of diseases (p 0.05), with getting worse disease control these differences became insignificant. In the group with obesity, activity limitation (p = 0.0150) and overall quality of life (p 0.005) increased significantly with increasing number of diseases. Anxiety levels increased with increasing number of illnesses (p 0.0001). Quality of life of patients according to AQLQ(S) has inverse correlation with BMI (r = −0.5135), age (r = −0.2034) with CIRS scores (r = −0.4905) with anxiety (r = −0.5078) and depression (r = −0.4820) level. \u0000CONCLUSIONS: Body weight, level of asthma control, depression and anxiety, and the number of comorbid multimorbid conditions affect the quality of life of patients with asthma. Obesity makes a significant negative contribution to worsening asthma control and patients’ quality of life, in this group patients have the highest level of multimorbidity and they have a prevalence of anxiety. To improve asthma control, patients need a complex examination including assessment of quality of life, depression and anxiety, and comorbidities in order to develop personalization of therapeutic approaches to patient management.","PeriodicalId":432054,"journal":{"name":"Russian Family Doctor","volume":" 52","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141833587","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}

However, data on its practical use in primary health care settings are limited. \u0000AIM: To evaluate the correctness of calculating the 10-year fracture probability according to FRAX by primary care physicians and then analyze the impact of the results on patient routing. \u0000MATERIALS AND METHODS: The base of the study was the city polyclinic No. 25 of the Nevsky district of Saint Petersburg. The study included men and women aged 40 years and older. \u0000During 2017–2020, polyclinic doctors assessed the risk of fracture using the FRAX calculator for 11,013 people. A group of patients with significant differences (30% or more) in the obtained value of the risk of major osteoporotic fractures from the average was identified. A 10-year probability of fractures was recalculated for these patients. \u0000RESULTS: Major osteoporotic fracture risk scores were compared before and after recalculation. In most cases of patients (83%), the risk category did not change after recalculation. In 15% of patients changed to a higher risk. In the total group (11,013 people), errors in FRAX calculation led to an underestimation of high fracture risk in 41 patients (0.4%). \u0000CONCLUSIONS: The study showed that primary care physicians use the FRAX calculator correctly.
