A RETROSPECTIVE STUDY OF DEATHS AMONG PARTICIPANTS IN THE LIQUIDATION OF THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE ACCIDENT AT THE CHORNOBYL NPP DUE TO INJURY, POISONING AND CERTAIN OTHER CONSEQUENCES OF EXTERNAL CAUSES (2000-2020).

Objective: To assess the dynamics of changes in the number of deaths due to injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes and their structure among liquidators of the accident at the Chornobyl NPP (PACL) on the basis of the data of Ukraine's State Register of Persons Affected by the Chornobyl Disaster (SRU) for 2000-2020.

Materials And Methods: The study used information resources of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine for 2000-2020 regarding deaths among the PACL - databases of the SRU as a basis for monitoring their health status. Depersonalised information was selected for 2000-2020 regarding 5,124 deaths from injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (ICD codes S00-T98) among the PACL, who were monitored in healthcare facilitiesof the Ministry of Health of Ukraine.

MORBIDITY OF THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM DISEASES OF RESIDENTS FROM RADIOACTIVELY CONTAMINATED AREAS. ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECT OF CHRONIC LOW/DOSE IONIZING RADIATION.

Objective: to study post-accident levels of illnesses system diseases of residents from radioactively contaminatedareas aged 0-60 years on the date of the Chornobyl accident, and to analyze the effect of chronic low-dose ionizingradiation.

Materials And Methods: Epidemiological research and analysis of morbidity of circulatory system diseases of resi-dents of radioactively contaminated areas (RCA) has been carried out. The individuals who were studied includedRCA residents aged 0-60 (98, 902 persons) on the date of the Chornobyl accident.

Generalized results of individualized exposure doses reconstruction for the subjects of Ukrainian State Register of persons, affected due to Chernobyl accident.

Since 2007, the department of dosimetry of NRCRM has been working for to supply the Ukrainian State Register (SRU) of persons affected due to Chernobyl accident by exposure doses estimations. As of now, the individualization of doses has been performed for nine raions located in Kyiv, Zhytomyr, Rivne and Chernihiv oblasts. The structure of raion-specific models used for the reconstruction of individualized doses was described in detail in the previous 19-th issue of this journal (2014).

Dose- and age-dependent cardiovascular mortality among inhabitants of the Chornobyl contaminated areas. 1988-2010 observation period.

Objective. The goal of this study was to conduct a descriptive epidemiological analysis of cardiovascular disease mortality among people living in contaminated areas of Ukraine with regard for total cumulative effective doses and age at the time of the Chornobyl accident. Materials and methods.

Radiation dose- and sex-dependent cardiovascular mortality in residents of contaminated areas after the Chornobyl NPP accident, 1988-2010 observation period.

Objective: To estimate the circulatory system disease death rates for people living in areas contaminated after the Chornobyl accident. Epidemiological estimation covered the post-accident period (1988-2010) and was focused on the relationship between death rates and doses accumulated over 1986-2010 or sex of survivors aged under 60 at the time of the accident.

Materials And Methods: We used data from the State Registry of Ukraine on persons affected by the Chornobyl accident.
