Within the framework of the national development goal of the Russian Federation "preservation of population, health and well-being of people" the target indicator "the increase of life expectancy up to 78 years" is to be achieved by 2030. The achievement of this value is also directly affected by functioning of of health care system. In 2015, the United Nations, within the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals for the period up to 2030, formulated the task that implies ensuring of universal health services coverage "including financial risk security, access to qualitative essential medical and sanitary services and access to safe, effective, qualitative and inexpensive essential medications and vaccines for all". In the course of the study, methodology was developed that permitted to calculate values of performance indicators of main health care systems (financial support and infrastructure development) and to conduct comprehensive comparative analysis with values of particular public health indicators. The study results confirmed possibility of such comparisons. The stable direct relationship between such indicators as "current health expenditure (CHE) per capita", "current health expenditure (CHE) as percentage of gross domestic product (GDP)", "UHC Service Coverage Index", "life expectancy" was revealed. The inverse dependency between such indicators as "out-of-pocket expenditure as percentage of current health expenditure (CHE)" and "UHC Service Coverage Index" as well as between "UHC Service Coverage Index" and "total NCD mortality rate" and "probability of premature dying from non-infectious diseases" was determined.

Background: While the significance of care navigation in facilitating access to health care within the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other (LGBTQ+) communities has been acknowledged, there is limited research examining how care navigation influences an individual's ability to understand and access the care they need in real-world settings. By analyzing private sector data, we can bridge the gap between theoretical research findings and practical applications, ultimately informing both business strategies and public policy with evidence grounded in real-world efficacy.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of specialized virtual care navigation services on LGBTQ+ individuals' ability to comprehend and access necessary care within a national cohort of commercially insured members.

Research indicates that simply increasing knowledge on ethnicity, culture, or migration does not improve culturally sensitive behavior and can foster stereotypes.

Evoked potential metrics extracted from an EEG exam can provide novel sources of information regarding brain function. While the P300 occurring around 300 ms post-stimulus has been extensively investigated in relation to mild cognitive impairment (MCI), with decreased amplitude and increased latency, the P200 response has not, particularly in an oddball-stimulus paradigm. This study compares the auditory P200 amplitudes between MCI (28 patients aged 74(8)) and non-MCI, (35 aged 72(4)).

Due to a shortage of studies into this topic, relationships between mean ambient temperature and involuntary admissions have remained largely elusive.
