This article analyses the transformation of Ukrainian healthcare in the context of the new digital healthcare. The study highlights the risks faced by Ukraine's healthcare system and proposes solutions and modernization options to improve the situation.The article conducts a narrative synthesis of related literature with a cross-sectional analysis to analyse the development of Ukrainian telemedicine and its current state in European countries. Risks, such as insufficient financial support, lack of personnel, corruption, and inaccessibility of medical services to the population, are considered.The article goes on to propose solutions to overcome these risks, including attracting additional investment in the healthcare system, improving working conditions for healthcare professionals, and reducing corruption. The article also discusses options for modernization, including the introduction of electronic medical records, the development of telemedicine, and ensuring access to quality healthcare services for all segments of the population. The paper also describes the mechanisms associated with new information and communication technologies, of which telemedicine is a part, to illustrate the potential of this new technology to transform traditional organizational forms of medicine. A brief overview of the role of telemedicine in the Ukrainian healthcare system is presented. An analytical approach is proposed along with a description of five different aspects for the effective use of telemedicine. The conclusion of the article is that the transformation of Ukrainian medicine to the new conditions of digital development requires a comprehensive approach and joint efforts of the government, medical professionals, and the public. Through risks and challenges, there is an opportunity to improve the medical system and provide quality healthcare services to all citizens of Ukraine, especially in regions with active hostilities.

An Improved Transformation-Associated Recombination Cloning Approach for Direct Capturing of Natural Product Biosynthetic Gene Clusters.
Microb Biotechnol
December 2024
Explogen LLC, Lviv, Ukraine.
The phylum Actinomycetota and genus Streptomyces in particular are the major source for discovery of natural products with diverse chemical structures and a variety of biological activities. Genes encoding biosynthetic pathways for bacterial natural products are grouped together into biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). The size of a typical actinobacterial BGC may range from 10 kb to 200 kb, which makes their cloning for heterologous expression a challenging task.

Article Synopsis
- Ukraine experiences a significant HIV epidemic predominantly among people who inject drugs, especially opioids, but has notably increased the use of opioid agonist therapies (OAT) between 2014 and 2021.
- A biobehavioral survey conducted on opioid-dependent people who inject drugs (PWID) in 2020-2021 revealed improvements in HIV diagnosis, care, and treatment compared to a prior survey from 2014-2015.
- The study highlights that any interaction with the OAT system—regardless of ongoing treatment—enhances HIV care engagement and treatment outcomes, demonstrating the positive impact of this approach on the overall HIV care cascade.
Sustainability of opioid agonist therapy programmes in Belarus, the Republic of Moldova, Tajikistan and Ukraine in the context of transition from Global Fund support during 2020-2023.
Harm Reduct J
October 2024
Harm Reduction International, London, E1 8AN, UK.
Article Synopsis
- Opioid agonist therapy (OAT) programs in Eastern Europe and Central Asia face sustainability challenges due to reduced funding from international sources like the Global Fund, prompting a need to assess current status and risks.
- The study evaluated OAT sustainability in Belarus, Moldova, Tajikistan, and Ukraine through qualitative data collection, including interviews and focus groups, focusing on policy, finance, and service dimensions.
- Findings revealed varying levels of OAT sustainability, with Ukraine showing the most progress, while Tajikistan faced significant risks; improvements were noted in areas like service accessibility and financial resources, but human resources showed minimal or negative development.
The impact of the physicochemical properties of calcium phosphate ceramics on biocompatibility and osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells.
BMC Res Notes
October 2024
Department of Human Genetics, Institute of Molecular Biology and Genetics, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, 150 Akad. Zabolotnogo str, Kyiv, 03680, Ukraine.
Article Synopsis
- The study examines the biocompatibility and osteoinductive properties of bioactive ceramics made from single-phase hydroxyapatite (HAP) and two-phase HAP with β-TCP, focusing on various chemical modifications.
- The results show that treatments improved the ceramics' solubility, increased porosity, and enhanced adsorption activity, leading to favorable conditions for cell adhesion and survival in culture.
- Calcium phosphate ceramics were found to stimulate important cellular processes, suggesting these HAP-based bioceramics could be effective for bone regeneration and reconstruction.
This study investigates the state of inclusivity in Ukrainian universities, focusing on the perceptions of university staff amid the country's ongoing sociopolitical transformations. Here we report on the perceptions of 820 staff members from various professional roles, including academic, management, and support positions, this research explored inclusivity through diverse lenses, encompassing work experience, interactions with students with disabilities, and self-identification with vulnerable groups. Most respondents assessed a moderate to high level of inclusivity, indicating a positive overall outlook on inclusive practices within these institutions.
