STATE OF CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM IN SERVICEMEN OF UKRAINE ARMED FORCES AND EMERGENCY WORKERS OF THE CHORNOBYL ACCIDENT. COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS.

Objective: To conduct a comparative analysis of cardiovascular system state in emergency workers (EW) of theaccident at the Chornobyl NPP and servicemen (SM) of Ukraine Armed Forces (UAF) who took part in the fightagainst russian military aggression, and to assess the role of military service factors on the development of cardiac pathology.

Materials And Methods: The study included 81 male EW and 161 SM of UAF, who were examined and treated in thecardiology department of NRCRMHO from 2022 to 2024. The average age of the surveyed EW was (56.

STATE OF CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM IN MILITARIES OF UKRAINE ARMED FORCES UNDER THE WAR WITH RUSSIA.

Objective: To study the state of cardiovascular system in servicemen (SM) of Ukraine Armed Forces (UAF), who took part in the fight against russian military aggression, and the factors of military service that could cause the occurrence of circulatory system diseases.

Materials And Methods: The study included 110 men of UAF, who were undergoing examination and treatment at the NRCRM. The average age of the examinees was (46.

ANALYSIS OF CLINICAL AND FUNCTIONAL INDICES OF CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM IN POST-COVID-19 EMERGENCY WORKERS OF THE CHORNOBYL ACCIDENT.

Objective: to determine which changes of cardiovascular system clinical, and structural, and functional state in emergency workers (EW) of the accident at the Chornobyl nuclear power plant (CNNP) can be associated with COVID-19 they suffered from and not with the natural progression of coronary heart disease (CHD).

Materials And Methods: The study included 16 male EW who fell ill with mild and medium-severe COVID-19 (EWC group) in 2020-2021, which was confirmed by a PCR test (polymerase chain reaction). All these patients were observed in the NRCRM cardiology department before infection with the coronavirus.

RELATIVE TELOMERE LENGTH OF PERIPHERAL BLOOD LYMPHOCYTES AND STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL STATE OF THE LEFT VENTRICLE MYOCARDIUM IN CLEAN-UP WORKERS OF THE CHORNOBYL ACCIDENT WHO SUFFERED FROM STENOTIC CORONARY ATHEROSCLEROSIS.

Unlabelled: The objective was to analyze the relative telomere length (RTL) of peripheral blood lymphocytes depending onmyocardium structural and functional state in emergency workers (EW) of the Chornobyl accident who suffered fromcoronary arteries stenotic atherosclerosis.

Materials And Methods: There were examined 60 male EW who operated at the Chornobyl nuclear power plant at1986 and 25 male non-irradiated persons (control group - CG) with coronary heart disease (CHD). Everyone EW andCG patients were almost healthy before the accident.

THE ASSESSMENT OF COMORBID PATHOLOGY IN CLEAN-UP WORKERS OF THE ACCIDENT CONSEQUENCES AT THE CHORNOBYL NPP HAVING CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES.

Objective: Analysis of comorbid pathology based on the use of methods for its quantitative assessment in personswho were exposed to radiation because of the Chornobyl accident.

Materials And Methods: Comorbid pathology was studied in 608 men, including 420 clean-up workers (CW) of theaccident consequences at the Chornobyl NPP (main group) and 188 non-irradiated persons (control group - CG). Allpatients had cardiovascular diseases as their main pathology and were examined in the cardiology department ofthe NRCRM hospital during 2011-2019.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF HYPERTENSION DISEASE AND ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE IN EMERGENCY WORKERS OF THE CHORNOBYL ACCIDENT AND INFLUENCE ON IT CONDITIONS OF BEING UNDER RADIATION.

Unlabelled: The objective of this investigation is to determine features of hypertensive heart disease (HHD) and coronary heart disease (CHD) development in emergency workers (EW) of Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant (ChNPP) in dependence on gender, occupation, duration of stay under radiation and the nature of performed job.

Materials And Methods: During the period from 2012 to 2018, 483 male EW (EW-m) and 134 female EW (EW-f), who worked in the accident zone over 1986-1987, were examined. All EW of both gender at the time of emergency works had no signs of cardiac pathology.

GENDER DISPARITIES OF CIRCULATORY DISEASE PROGRESS IN THE CHORNOBYL ACCIDENT CLEAN-UP WORKERS AND PHOSPHODIESTERASE 4D GENE rs966221 POLYMORPHISM.

Objective: Evaluation of the hypertensive disease (HD) and coronary heart disease (CHD) progress in the ChornobylNPP (ChNPP) accident clean-up workers (ACUW) and persons not exposed to ionizing radiation depending on gen-der and genotype of the phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) gene rs966221 polymorphism.

Materials And Methods: There were male ACUW (ACUWm; n=515) and female ACUW (ACUWf; n=145) involved in thestudy since 2013 till 2018. Participation in the clean-up works took place in 1986-1987.

Radiation and non-radiation factors and their impact on the natural history of coronary heart disease in Chornobyl accident clean-up workers.

The objective of the study was to evaluate the impact of a range of risk factors and ionizing radiation on the severity of clinical presentation of coronary heart disease (CHD) in Chornobyl accident clean-up workers (ACW). Materials and methods. A total of 376 ACW and 123 Kiev city residents with no exposure to radiation participated in the study.
