Assessment of lifestyle factors is a pressing issue with a high social and state value. Purpose of the study is to compare lifestyle factors of young men and young women who study at colleges. A cross-sectional sampling descriptive study was conducted in 2021–2022. 371 students from 2 colleges of various profiles aged 16 to 20 (25.4% of young men and 74.6% of young women) participated in the study. Socioeconomic indicators, regimen of nutrition, periodic consumption of basic products and dishes, taste preferences of students, compliance with sleep pattern, duration of self-preparation for lessons, physical exercises and sporting activities, creative hobbies and use of gadgets were examined. It has been established that the majority of young people live in favorable social conditions, over one-third of them stay away from their parents and other adult relatives. The majority of those interviewed estimate income of their families as an average, all families have at least one PC. The majority of students have eating disorders, peculiarities of dietary behavior, and violations of the regimen of the day such as insufficient sleep duration, high academic load, insufficient involvement in creative or social activity, low level of motor activity and walking, long-term use of PCs and other gadgets.

Preservation and strengthening of health in the rising generation is declared as a key direction of the state policy in the Russian Federation. Systematic long-term influence of environmental factors, including mode of living and nutrition, on the processes of formation of health and physical development in children is currently taken as a pressing issue for the entire state, with regional peculiarities, specific to certain regions of Russia. The paper presents an analysis of modern Russian and foreign scientific literature regarding the influence of various environmental factors, conditions of training and education, basic components of the day regime and dietary habits on health of schoolchildren. Literature sources were searched through eLibrary, PubMed, Cyberleninka for the period from 2015 to 2022. In spite of the activities related to health protection of children and adolescents conducted by the state, official statistics and numerous studies display a continuous growth of the socalled school-associated morbidity. Analysis of historical data shows that effect of school and out-of-school factors on health of children and adolescents remains very pressing. Under these conditions, increased literacy of parents, teachers and children regarding hygienic education, formation of a healthy lifestyle and determination of managed sanitary and hygienic factors that can produce a positive influence on health and physical development of schoolchildren is given a great importance.

The issue of students’ health promotion is prioritized against the background of preserved high incidence of school-associated nosologies, occurrence of new risk factors that determine a change in the daily schedule and lifestyle, and intensification of an educational process. The implemented system of hygienic control over the valid risk factors is deprived of effectiveness due to its irrational use associated with insignificant motivation of educational process participants for its practical implementation. The purpose of this research is to examine awareness of the teachers during 20-year-long observation of dynamics while obtaining hygienic education on the issues of schoolchildren health protection. 36 and 50 teachers were included into the research in 2000 and 2021, respectively. Inclusion criteria were as follows: gymnasium teacher, time interval, properly completed questionnaire, availability of voluntary informed consent. Exclusion criteria included another professional group and place of employment, another time interval, lack of properly completed questionnaire, no voluntary informed consent. The gymnasium teachers were questioned during a dynamic study and obtained hygienic education on the issue of schoolchildren health protection. Statistica 13 PL pack was used. An increased level of teachers’ awareness during sanitary and educational work, formation of healthy lifestyle skills and reduction of a number of teachers (from 33.3% in 2000 to 10.2% in 2021) not promoting their health were noted. This results in improved effectiveness of preventive activities at educational institutions.

Maintaining health and commitment to a healthy lifestyle among students is the basis for their further professional activities, which is true not only for future physicians. The medical students’ hygiene education is especially important during their university studies, since it is an element of the future physician personality formation. The study was aimed to substantiate the technology for the medical students’ hygiene training provided as part of their classes at the Department of Hygiene. Hygiene training was performed in the group of 173 students of the General Medicine and Pediatric Faculties (index group) as part of the classes on hygiene at the Department of Hygiene, Pediatric Faculty, Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University, for one semester. The equivalent comparison group formed by the copy pair method also comprised 173 medical students of the General Medicine and Pediatric Faculties. Questioning and monitoring of the medical students’ progress were used to assess the hygiene training efficiency. The data were processed with the Statistica 13 PL software package. It was shown that the General Medicine and Pediatric Faculty students’ hygiene training, that involved the use of checklists and visual materials, provided as part of hygiene classes, was possible. During the classes at the Depatment of Hygiene 95.0% of medical students in the index group noted they had started to follow the recommendations from the checklist, while no students having1–2 meals a day were found; the students’ motivation to study hygiene as a subject improved, which was reflected in their end of semester grade that was (М±m) 86.6±0.6 points on average in the index group and 80.6±0.7 points on average in the comparison group (p≤0.05). Hygiene training of medical students provided during practical hygiene classes proved its effectiveness. The results of the test use of checklists during the semester were positive.

The adverse impact of electronic devices, including mobile ones (smartphones, tablets), on the organism of children, adolescents and youth has been highlighted by many studies. The study was aimed to assess the regime of using mobile electronic devices and its impact on the students’ vision. The data on the use of mobile electronic devices in educational and recreational activities by 1218 schoolchildren and students were acquired; their work-rest schedule when engaged with mobile electronic devices was characterized. A total of 943 schoolchildren and students were examined by ophthalmologist and with the use of the Armis hardware-software complex (Russia). A significant decrease in visual acuity (measured in diopters) and the increase in the rate of functional vision problems and chronic eye disorders in first-graders (p ≤ 0.05) compared to their age-mates of the past decade were observed. During the learning process, a significant decrease in visual acuity (p ≤ 0.05) in both eyes was observed starting from middle school, which persisted both in high school and during first years of the university. Students, who adhered to the work-rest schedule when engaged with mobile electronic devices, significantly less often (p ≤ 0.05) complained of health problems. A regression model (p ≤ 0.05) was constructed for the relationship between the students’ visual acuity (OD, OS, diopters) and their work-rest schedule when engaged with mobile electronic devices. When assessing the regime of using electronic devices, medical stidents found that the time of use in both educational and recreational activities should be strictly regulated. To prevent functional vision problems and chronic eye disorders, it is necessary to limit the time of using mobile electronic devices by students. According to scientific research, this would have a beneficial effect on the finctional state of the organism and prevent fatigue.

It is difficult to imagine a modern society without electronic gadgets (EG), as they promote rapid acquisition and exchange of data. At the same time, modern technologies do not only ensure information exchange, but also influence different organs and systems of users. As they are more commonly used by students and adolescents, it is important to have a holistic picture of the effect produced by the EG to estimate the harmful effects of various mobile EG. The harmful effects on health of medical students associated with the use of mobile electronic gadgets was assessed. Scientific articles considering the issues of how various environmental factors and harmful effects associated with the excessive use of electronic mobile gadgets influence the health of students were reviewed. The articles published in 2015 to 2021 were searched within ELIBRARY, PUBMED, PSYCINFO and CYBERLENINKA. Thus, taking into account literature data about the health of modern students, their way of life, role and place of electronic gadgets in their lives, and a special importance of forming health-preserving skills exactly among medical students, who are the future doctors, subsequent examination of harmful effects, associated with mobile electronic gadgets used in educational and leisure activity, on students’ health, examining the effect of mobile electronic gadgets on other components of the students’ way of life and development of modern technologies of hygienic education of medical students at Universities still belong to relevant issues. Development of electronic technologies enables acquisition and processing of large amounts of information. However, various factors producing a negative effect on health and a way of life of a human being are poorly understood. In spite of diversified information technologies, it is important to remember about the necessary skills used when the technologies are applied. Thus, health and skills related to a healthy lifestyle belong to an important factor for future medical students.

To achieve high results in sports and preserve health, athletes need favorable conditions for a training process, accommodation and medical supply. The purpose of the study was to assess the sanitary and hygienic condition and organization of a training process at a school of Olympic reserve. Objectives of the study included assessment of architectural and planning concepts for the school-related buildings and premises; examination of sanitary and hygienic condition of training rooms, sports facilities, hall of residence, parameters of air thermal and light regimen; assessment of how the training process is organized and developing the activities to correct the found violations. A hygienic assessment of training and athletic premises, physical factors, medical and pedagogical observation (two types of sports) is done in the trial. It has been established during the examination that no requirements to light furniture labeling, temperature and light regimen, regimen of cleaning and storage of cleaning utensils and sanitary condition of the hall of residence are followed. Training sessions are structured and specific as far as physical activity dynamics goes. By a number of parameters (selection and arrangement of premises, class timetable and equipment), favorable conditions for education and training are created at the school. The established violations of sanitary and hygienic conditions in the school-related premises and buildings can promote fatigue, injuries and infectious diseases. A more proper medical control over the sanitary conditions of education and residence at the school is required.

Drinking water, household water, and recreational water can be the vehicle of infections and invasions transmitted by fecal‑oral route. In this paper we studied the impact of the quality of water in water bodies on the incidence of enteric infections and invasions in the population of the Russian Federation based on the State reports “On the State of Sanitary and Epidemiological Well‑Being of the Population of the Russian Federation” issued by the Federal Center of Rospotrebnadzor in 2011–2020. Based on microbiological parameters, the quality of water from the centralized sources of water supply in the Russian Federation corresponds to microbiological parameters of water in waterworks before entering the distributive pipelines (3.5 and 2.9% off‑nominal tests, respectively, Rxy = 0.98). Giardia cysts were found in 0.06% of the assessed water samples collected from the centralized sources of water supply. This parameter correlates with the percentage of off‑nominal microbiological water tests (Rxy = 0.84). The values of biological water contamination tend to decrease. The incidence of acute enteric infections and giardiasis shows a negative trend and correlates with the indicators of biological water contamination obtained for water from the centralized sources of water supply and grade II reservoirs. The findings, that support the literature data on the impact of biological water contamination on the incidence of enteric infections and invasions in the population, highlight the relevance of maintaining the sanitary and hygienic condition, as well as providing thorough sanitary and hygienic control of water bodies.

The main task of any country associated with sanitary and epidemiological welfare of population is to obtain drinking water of good quality. In the majority of regions of the Russian Federation, quality of water taken from water sources and water supply systems is still unsatisfactory. As far as the extent of human impact on the environment goes, the Samara region is an ecologically unfavorable part of the Volga region. With the accession of the Republic of Crimea to the Russian Federation, the problem of water supply here has been intensified and the question of whether the drinking water corresponds to Sanitary Rules and Regulations 2.1.3685–21 and Sanitary Rules and Regulations 2.1.3684–21 arose. The purpose of the study is to analyze quality of drinking water supply in the regions of the Russian Federation. Drinking water samples taken from the centralized domestic water supply system in the Samara urban district and Republic of Crimea were analyzed using 20 sanitary and chemical parameters. Quality of drinking water doesn’t correspond to the requirements for oil products in all samples; the average value of this parameter exceeded the maximum permissible limit by 0.18 mg/dm3 in the Samara urban district and by 0.04 mg/dm3 in the Republic of Crimea, all the other parameters were within normal limits. However, during the comparative analysis quality of drinking water in the Republic of Crimea was insignificantly better than in the Samara urban district. Quality of drinking water is determined with the source of drinking water supply (surface and underground). Thus, to make the prepared drinking water normal, a respective water treating is necessary. Bad condition of water supply pipes can also produce a negative impact on quality of water obtained by a consumer.

In the majority of regions of the Russian Federation, quality of water taken from water sources and water supply systems is still unsatisfactory. As far as the extent of human impact on the environment goes, the Samara region is an ecologically unfavorable part of the Volga region. With the accession of the Republic of Crimea to the Russian Federation, the problem of water supply here has been intensified and the question of whether the drinking water corresponds to Sanitary Rules and Regulations 2.1.3685–21 and Sanitary Rules and Regulations 2.1.3684–21 arose. The purpose of the study is to analyze quality of drinking water supply in the regions of the Russian Federation. Drinking water samples taken from the centralized domestic water supply system in the Samara urban district and Republic of Crimea were analyzed using 20 sanitary and chemical parameters. Quality of drinking water doesn’t correspond to the requirements for oil products in all samples; the average value of this parameter exceeded the maximum permissible limit by 0.18 mg/dm3 in the Samara urban district and by 0.04 mg/dm3 in the Republic of Crimea, all the other parameters were within normal limits. However, during the comparative analysis quality of drinking water in the Republic of Crimea was insignificantly better than in the Samara urban district. Quality of drinking water is determined with the source of drinking water supply (surface and underground). Thus, to make the prepared drinking water normal, a respective water treating is necessary. Bad condition of water supply pipes can also produce a negative impact on quality of water obtained by a consumer.","PeriodicalId":119609,"journal":{"name":"Российский вестник гигиены","volume":"113 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134056032","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}
Consumption of energy drinks by young people has been increased due to various reasons. The drinks have potentially harmful effects. The purpose was to examine the frequency of and reasons for energy drink consumption by medical students, subjectively assess health effects related to energy drinks, and analyze composition of energy drinks. 150 students of the Voronezh State Medical University named after N. N. Burdenko were interviewed to find out the effect produced by energy drinks on their performance, health and attitude to energy drinks using Google Forms. Methods of statistical analysis were utilized during the assessment. Four energy drink labels were selected and analyzed with their composition being described. Students’ health and adverse effects after consumption of the drinks underwent subjective assessment. 35% of those interviewed believe that energy drinks are effective. 70% of the students report increased performance after consumption of the drinks. However, 55% of them develop adverse effects such as tremor of the extremities (11.3%), increased excitability (20%), increased blood pressure (23.3%), heart arrhythmia (26%), allergic reactions (4%), and loss of consciousness (2%). A safe amount to be consumed (250 ml) is recommended after the analysis, whereas 60% of the respondents consume 450 ml. Every year energy drinks are gaining more and more popularity among young people. The found adverse effects of energy drinks require subsequent and a more elaborated examination.
