Objective: Evaluation of structural features and metabolic/biochemical abnormalities of the bone tissue and relevant regulation patterns in children, residing in the radiologically contaminated territories (RCT).
Materials And Methods: Children (n = 148) aged 7 to 18 years old were involved in the study. Bone mineral density (BMD) is given in 3 grades according to the mean square deviation values, namely Grade I - standard (n = 75),Grade II - reduced (n = 45) and Grade III - very low one (n = 28).
Objective: To determine the structure of abnormalities of bone tissue and substantiate the management tactics inacute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) pediatric patients and in children with no oncohematological disorders, livingin radiologically contaminated territories (RCT).
Materials And Methods: Children (n = 220) living in RCT were the study participants i.e.
Objective: assessment of clinical-hematological and metabolic-biochemical parameters of the of bone tissue and hormonal regulation depending on the serum iron content and radiation dose values in children living on radiologically contaminated territories after the ChNPP accident in Ukraine.
Materials And Methods: Children (n = 271) living on radiologically contaminated territories (RCT) of Ukraine were involved in the study. Three study groups were formed according to the serum iron level (SIL), namely group I with SIL 10.
Objective: identification of clinical and metabolic characteristics of osteogenesis and factors affecting bone mineral density (BMD) in children living in radioactively contaminated territories (RCT) after the ChNPP accident for the use of therapeutic and preventive measures aiming to reduce the incidence of disorders.
Materials And Methods: Children aged 4 to 18 years old (n = 539) were involved in the study within 4 age groups, namely under 7 years old, 7-10 years old, 10-14 years old, older than 14 years old. Studied parameters in children with a reduced BMD (85-65 relative units and under 65 relative units) were estimated vs.
Background: Healthcare labor market shortages due to migration, inadequate investments, and lack of continuous training are essential concerns in the Eastern European region. This article aims to describe and reflect on the experience with the implementation of continuous medical education among mother-and-child healthcare providers in Ukraine, including achievements, challenges, and barriers. We analyze this case based on two international collaboration initiatives: the Swiss-Ukrainian program in mother-and-child health that ran from 2000 to 2015, supplemented by the recent Ukrainian-Swiss project "Medical education development" in 2018-2023.
