Assessment of soil epidemic hazard in the Arkhangelsk region was carried out using the data of monitoring in 20072010. Incidence of geohelminthoses among the Arkhangelsk region population in 1995-2010 has been analyzed. The level of soil contamination by microorganisms of E. coli group in the urban areas was 10 times higher in comparison with the rural areas (<0.001). The Arkhangelsk, Kotlas and Holmogory regions were territories with high contamination by eggs and larvae of ascarids. Incidence of ascariasis among the Arkhangelsk region children (76.4 %ооо) was 9 times higher than among adults (8.2 %ооо). The highest incidence of ascariasis among children was registered in Kotlas (277.9 %ооо) and Krasnoborsk (256.8 %ооо).

Based on systematic analysis of published data and our own data, there has been worked out and introduced a concept of neurophysiological processes that developed during fatigue, over-fatigue of experts in their professional activities. The concept serves as an objective base for dynamic assessment and prediction of the experts’ functional status and health. It has been shown and proved that transition from fatigue to over-fatigue reduced protective inhibition, the effect of "disinhibition" developed, and as a consequence, speed and mobility of nervous processes increased. Volatility and differentiation inhibition increased. With further intensification of over-fatigue, the earlier formed neurophysiological changes were strengthened. Later they were joined by an equalizing phase, and then by a paradoxical phase as initial manifestations of protective inhibition. Asthenic-neurotic states were clinically diagnosed.

Influence of weather conditions on working capacity and medical aid appealability of primary school children has been studied. The study was carried out as an experiment in natural conditions of a secondary school during 2008-2009. For the same period, medical aid appealability of the children was studied. The data of children’s sensitivity to weather factors (wind velocity, air temperature, atmospheric pressure and other) have been given. There have been proposed preventive measures for reduction of children’s meteosensitivity.

Cherepovets State University, Cherepovets, Russia In the article, physical development and physical fitness of students in the large industrial city of Cherepovets, the North-West region, with bad ecological characteristics have been studied. There have been obtained data on dynamics of weight and height characteristics of young men and girls aged 18-21 y. o., there have been worked out standards of the students’ physical development. It has been found that their height and body mass were changing with age generally in alignment. Deviations in physical development did not exceed 7.0 %. The level of physical fitness of the girls at the age of 18-20 y. o. was lower than the average level, and the young men’s physical fitness was at the average level. After the attainment of the age of 21 y. o., the young men and girls showed the observable lower level of physical fitness. The best results in physical development of both genders were detected mainly in the spring time. According to the Rufe test, the young men at the age of 18 y. о. showed the average and high working ability, and the young men aged 21, showed the average working ability. The girls’ working ability was estimated as good one.

We have studied antibiotics use for treatment of prosthetic joints infection before and after implementation of the recommendations for antibiotic therapy. The recommendations are based on an analysis of the structure and drug resistance of 938 strains isolated from 618 patients with periprosthetic infection who were treated at the Department of Purulent Surgery from 2007 till 2009. The Department’s complete antibiotics use data in the period from 2007 till 2010 were processed according to the ATC/DDD system and expressed in defined daily doses (DDD) per 100 bed-days. In 2010 after introduction into practice of the recommendations, it has been shown that the total antibiotics use was reduced and the spectrum of antibiotics with antistaphylococcal activity was widened. Besides, the DDD-analysis of antibiotics use together with microbiological monitoring of the leading infection agents allows to make an expert examination of medicine use effectiveness and can be used for optimization and control of antibiotic therapy.
