The state of the waste management system in St. Petersburg and Finland over the past 25 years is considered. It is shown that over the years, the system of municipal solid waste (MSW) management in St. Petersburg has not fundamentally changed. The bulk of waste - 88% is taken to landfills, and 12% is processed into compost. In Finland, over the years, the MSW management system has changed significantly: the amount of waste disposed of at the landfill has decreased by 46 times, the amount of waste incinerated at incinerators has increased by 7 times; the amount of waste selected for secondary raw materials increased by 1.5 times. An assessment of environmental damage to municipal solid waste management systems showed that over the past 25 years, specific environmental damage for St. Petersburg increased 2.22 times, and for Finland decreased 18.07 times.

To identify the peculiarities of manifestation of epidemic process of influenza in 2016, and causes high morbidity and mortality in St. Petersburg, a comparative analysis of the incidence of influenza and acute respiratory viral infections, hospitalization and mortality in children and adults during the epidemic of 2016 in St. Petersburg and other 58 the observed cities of the Russian Federation. The epidemic of 2016 in St. Petersburg from other cities were characterized by a greater intensity: the duration of the epidemic; the incidence of the population on the peak (at 1.9 and 1.3%), within the boundaries of the epidemic in the city (7.7 and 5.4%) and the country (11.9 and 9,6%); shares admitted to hospital with a diagnosis of «influenza» among the whole population (17.1 and 14,0%); greater mortality from influenza among the whole population (3.3 tims), persons 15 - 64 (in 3 times) and 65 years and older (2.8 times). The low level of population immunity in Saint-Petersburg in the before the epidemic period and lower frequency of hospitalization of patients with influenza and ARVI among the population as a whole (2.4% and 3.6 percent), particularly children and persons over 65 years of age (2 times), could be the cause of high morbidity and mortality from influenza in St. Petersburg.

The adverse effects of climate change are a critical threat to sustainable urban development in the twenty-first century. The article discusses the possible impacts of climate change on St. Petersburg and adaptation measures for them. Special attention is paid to the directions specified in the Strategy of Social and Economic Development of St. Petersburg for the long term: formation of an inventory of greenhouse gas emissions, protection of the coast from flooding and erosion. Available estimates of greenhouse gas emissions in St. Petersburg are analyzed. Comparative estimates of changes in emissions of harmful substances from the main thermal power plants of St. Petersburg in the 1980s and in the 2020 are presented in the article, total emission from main energy plants having decreased more than 4 times. Achievements of St. Petersburg energy complex in transition to gas fuel are shown. Global warming can affect almost all anthropogenic and natural components of the metropolis St. Petersburg. In addition, they can be significantly strengthened by the urban heat island, which has become a characteristic of St. Petersburg in the late 19th century. Trends of St. Petersburg population growth and density of urban development make it possible to say that the development of the island of heat will continue in the next decades. The author proposes boundary delimitation of the maritime zone of St. Petersburg, determined on the basis of a comprehensive analysis of the various zones related to the protection of the eastern Gulf of Finland. Practically all climatic normals of St. Petersburg presented in normative documents have changed at present. This circumstance requires updating of these documents. Extreme estimates of sea level rise pose a major threat to the security for the coast and population of St. Petersburg in the 21st century under global warming. Estimates of global warming impacts should be taken when planning urban development for the long-term.

The paper aims to discuss the multifaceted links between the marine environment of the Gulf of Finland and the representations of the large complex of cultural heritage related to the city of St. Petersburg. The paper is based on a spatial imaginary of Greater St. Petersburg as the cultural and technological unity of the city and adjacent waterscapes in the times of the Russian Empire. This concept is instrumental to see the historical links between the parts of the heritage complex that has by now disintegrated and has been separated by state borders.

Like all working classes everywhere and at all times, the Russian working class on the eve of the revolution was internally differentiated. As Diane Koenker and William Rosenberg have recently emphasized, Russian workers were distinguished from one another by skill level, strength of ties to the land, gender, age and other factors. And those distinctions mattered: they affected the form and intensity of workers’ anti-regime actions which extended from reluctant submission to un-rehearsed rebellion, to organized political protest.

Abstract. The anthropogenic impact is a major factor of climate change, which is highest in industrial regions and modern megacities. Megacities are a significant source of emissions of various substances into the atmosphere, including CO2 which is the most important anthropogenic greenhouse gas. In 2019 and 2020, the mobile experiment EMME (Emission Monitoring Mobile Experiment) was carried out on the territory of St Petersburg which is the second-largest industrial city in Russia with a population of more than 5 million people. In 2020, several measurement data sets were obtained during the lockdown period caused by the COVID-19 (COronaVIrus Disease of 2019) pandemic. One of the goals of EMME was to evaluate the CO2 emission from the St Petersburg agglomeration. Previously, the CO2 area flux has been obtained from the data of the EMME-2019 experiment using the mass balance approach. The value of the CO2 area flux for St Petersburg has been estimated as being 89±28 kt km−2 yr−1, which is 3 times higher than the corresponding value reported in the official municipal inventory. The present study is focused on the derivation of the integral CO2 emission from St Petersburg by coupling the results of the EMME observational campaigns of 2019 and 2020 and the HYSPLIT (HYbrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectories) model. The ODIAC (Open-Data Inventory for Anthropogenic CO2) database is used as the source of the a priori information on the CO2 emissions for the territory of St Petersburg. The most important finding of the present study, based on the analysis of two observational campaigns, is a significantly higher CO2 emission from the megacity of St Petersburg compared to the data of municipal inventory, i.e. ∼75800±5400 kt yr−1 for 2019 and ∼68400±7100 kt yr−1 for 2020 versus ∼30 000 kt yr−1 reported by official inventory. The comparison of the CO2 emissions obtained during the COVID-19 lockdown period in 2020 to the results obtained during the same period of 2019 demonstrated the decrease in emissions of 10 % or 7400 kt yr−1.

Background. The influenza vaccination coverage has steadily increased in the Russian Federation. The introduction of new domestic influenza vaccines into practice and the study of their effectiveness are of great importance for public health. However, a systematic analysis of the effectiveness of vaccines manufactured and used in Russia in recent years has not been performed. The aim ofthe study was to assess the epidemiological effectiveness of three domestic influenza vaccines in St. Petersburg during the 2018–2019 epidemic season.Material and methods. The organized community of 1892 young students aged 18 to 23 years has been under supervision during the period of time from October 2018 to March 2019. Influenza vaccines Grippol Plus, Sovigripp, and Ultrix were used for vaccination.Results and discussion. Prophylactic vaccination with influenza vaccines Sovigripp, Grippol Plus and Ultrix in the fall of 2018 led to a decrease in the incidence of influenza and other acute respiratory infections (ARI) by a total of 1.6–3.8 times; a decrease in the incidence of influenza by 2.7–7.1 times; the total protective efficacy of vaccines against influenza and ARI was 52.4%, and against influenza, taking into account laboratory correction, 73.3%.Conclusions. Under the conditions of the viruses circulating in Russia and in St. Petersburg in the 2018–2019 epidemic season the strains introduced into the composition of influenza vaccines, domestic influenza vaccines were characterized by good tolerance, were safe, areactogenic and had a pronounced protective effect. If the viruses circulating in Russia and in St. Petersburg in the 2018–2019 epidemic season corresponded to the strains introduced into the composition of influenza vaccines, domestic influenza vaccines, showing good tolerance, safety and low reactogenicity, had a pronounced protective effect.

Purpose. To analyze the main medical and statistical parameters, allowing to evaluate the results of breast cancer treatment. Patients and methods. Data on 4689 breast cancer (BC) patients were analyzed retrospectively. Inclusion criteria were: female, residence in St. Petersburg, diagnosis of BC established in 2011, 2012. The study also includes information on the options of BC surgical treatment, one-year mortality in breast cancer patients and index of the contingent accumulation in St. Petersburg in 2011–2017. For statistical data processing Statistica 12.0 for Windows, Population Cancer Register and MedInfo-4 were used. The differences in the groups of studies were considered statistically significant at p < 0.05.Results. The prevalence of breast cancer among women in St. Petersburg varies from 532.6 per 100 000 population in 2011 to 545.00/0000 in 2012. In 2011 the incidence of BC in women in St. Petersburg was 46.210/0000 (standard deviation 1.05) and in 2012 – 49.50/0000 (standard deviation 1.05). The mean age of breast cancer patients is 64 years (standard deviation 12.25). Localization of a tumor in one of the glands was found in 4617 (98.5%) clinical observations. In 2,846 (60.7%) cases, the tumor sizes varied from 2 to 5 cm. Signs of infiltrative ductal carcinoma were histologically verified in 3689 (80%) cases. The proportion of single-stage breast reconstruction after mastectomy in the overall structure of surgeries in breast cancer patients increased in 2011–2017 more than 6.5 times. The 5-year survival rate in study groups was 64.4% and 63.3%. Conclusions The main statistical parameters of medical care (MC) analysis in breast cancer patients in St. Petersburg in 2011–2017 allow to state generally positive trends in the anticancer fight organization. The increase of the breast cancer incidence rates is partly due to the improved quality of examination and treatment of patients through the creation in the city of a system of high-tech MC, as well as to the particularly wary of doctors in detecting breast tumors.

In this article we analyse ten structured interviews with girls aged 15 to 19 from Moscow and St. Petersburg. We look at how the girls are dealing with the fundamentally new and dangerous situation created by the coronavirus pandemic and note that they are looking for a social and psychological space for themselves in which they can create and experience stability and safety. They are more concerned about security than ever before, while being, at the same time, very sensitive to restrictions on their freedom and agency. Girls’ clear desire for privacy, fuelled by the pandemic’s increasingly rapid invasion of their digital space, reinforces their urge towards agency and their understanding of freedom as autonomy.

Full textAbstract:
In 2016, India demonetized 24% of its currency notes (viz. 86% in cash value) in circulation presuming this will remove “black” (illicit) and counterfeit cash holdings, and combat money laundering. This was the largest demonetization experiment in recent history. Although demonetization has occurred several times before, no unambiguous economic argument for, or against, it exists. This was a key enabler for demonetization, yet again. This paper argues that the St. Petersburg Paradox (SPP) provides a compelling argument against demonetization. Assuming the distribution of cash is lognormal, it is shown that the probability of black cash holdings will be small. If not, the holders would: a) be irrational because they are willing to accept, contrary to the SPP, the small probability of a large loss, by effectively perceiving it as zero, without using all means to immunize themselves against it; or b) be sure their cash can be legitimized via collusion with the State; or c) be sure they can incentivize law-abiding citizens to act as agents to legitimize the cash for a reasonable fee. Assuming rationality and no bureaucratic support, large probabilities of black cash holdings imply that many more law-abiding patriotic citizens have to be corruptible than seems rational.

Purpose. To study and evaluate the use of vitamins and products enriched with biologically active substances by the residents of St. Petersburg. The study was conducted with the use of the questionnaire survey method of 1200 Petersburgers. Results. A third of residents (35.5 per cent) never used enriched food products in nutrition. The majority of St. Petersburgers (59.3%) when cooking do not use iodized salt or do it rarely. While the use of salt increases with the age. Inclusion of vitamins in the diet fails to be widely distributed among the citizens: monthly they are used by only 20.3% of citizen, 2 times a year - 28.2% and only during illness - 17.7%. One third of the population (33.8 percent) never takes vitamins in the form of tablets, syrups, solutions, etc. Conclusion. The analysis indicates the need to improve the nutrition of Petersburgers to reduce risk factors for diseases by improving health literacy in organized units for healthy nutrition on the base of Health Centers or clinics in St. Petersburg.

The paper analyzes experience of Edinoverie political thought in the era of the First Russian Revolution. Analysis is conducted in the context of development of Edinoverie thought and formation of confessional identity of Edinovertsy in the second half of the 19th century — early 20th century. Three specific directions of Edinoverie formed during this period were identified: conservative, radical and reformist. The focus of the article is on the latter, headed by St. Petersburg priest Simeon Shleev. Its representatives advocated reforming the synodal structure of the church, convening a Local Council, strengthening the autonomy of Edinovertsy and uniting them under the auspices of the St. Petersburg center of Edinoverie. Their organ was the “Pravda Pravoslaviya” (Truth of Orthodoxy) newspaper (published for some time under the title “Glagol Vremen” (The Word of Times)). The publication of the first issues of the newspaper fell on the era of the First Russian Revolution. That is why the St. Petersburg co-religionists, claiming leadership among their fellow believers throughout the country, began to write on political topics and publicly critically interpret the surrounding political reality. The paper determines thematic field and authors, who touched political matters in 1906–1907 in “Pravda Pravoslaviya” and “Glagol Vremen”, analyzes dynamics of such publications. Conclusions are drawn about the correlation between the general political agenda and specific issues that worried Edinovertsy.

The relevance of the study is associated with the exceptional medical and social significance of the issues of toxicological assistance. In order to improve toxicological assistance to the population, we analyzed the dynamics of patient admission to major toxicological centers in St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk and Kazan in 2011–2017, which revealed a significant increase in the number of patients with a toxicological pathology and unidirectional changes in the structure of acute poisoning. We used statistical and analytical research methods. According to the results of the study, in all three centers the proportion of poisoning by narcotic substances increased, and the qualitative characteristics of poisoning changed (compared to 2011). Poisonings with opioid alkaloids and heroin haven’t been substantially found recently; the main proportion of poisonings was associated with the use of synthetic drugs (phencyclidines, piperazines, synthetic cathinones, synthetic cannabinoids, amphetamines, γ-butyrolactone and 1,4-butanediol, etc.). The proportion of patients with ethanol poisoning increased significantly: the number grew by 2.5 times in St. Petersburg, 3.0 times in Novosibirsk and 30% in Kazan. At the same time, the number of drug poisoning decreased in all three centers by an average of 20–30%. The number of carbon monoxide poisoning has also decreased in St. Petersburg and Novosibirsk. Data were obtained on some regional features of poisoning. The prevalence of poisoning by cauterizing agents in Novosibirsk and by plant poisons in Kazan. Despite a decline of mortality, the absolute number of deaths by acute poisoning during the study period increased. The study resulted in an attempt to identify the main problems and tasks of the toxicological service at present and to develop mechanisms for its improvement, taking into account modern changes in the volumes and structure of acute poisonings.Authors declare lack of the conflicts of interests.

Introduction. The fundamental strategic objective of the national health care was to increase the life expectancy of Russians including the early detection and treatment of cancer, remaining in recent years the leading cause of mortality, and therefore ensuring the availability of diagnostic studies for patients conducted for early diagnosis and control of treatment was extremely urgent. The objective of the study was to assess the volume and economic indicators of the availability of studies by computer tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (CT, MRI) for patients.Material and methods. The basis for the study – all cases of CT and MRI studies in patients under the program of state guarantees of free medical care for citizens in St. Petersburg in the dynamics of 5 years. The data were statistically processed using the methods of variation statistics.Results. Over the last 5 years in St. Petersburg, the number of medical organizations conducting CT and MRI in patients under the program of state guarantees has been doubled (CT: 37 medical organizations in 2013, 63 – in 2018; MRI: 32 medical organizations in 2013, 65 – in 2018), and there was a significant increase in the number of studies by these methods. In 2017, the number of CT scans was 106028, MRI – 107503 that was more than 2 times higher the number of studies conducted in 2013: 44799 and 56090, respectively. The role of these studies for the diagnosis of tumor process was significant: 67.3 % of CT and 46.6 % of MRI were performed for this purpose. The increase in the number of studies was accompanied by the increase in tariffs and costs of the system of compulsory health insurance for their implementation.Conclusion. In St. Petersburg, sufficient conditions was created to ensure the volume and financial indicators of access to medical care for patients with cancer (suspected cancer) in need of CT and MRI. At following planning for the development of this type of care, it was advisable to take into account the research needs of residents of certain districts in St. Petersburg.

Introduction. An epidemic of syphilis and other sexually transmitted infections (STI) in the Russian Federation is believed to be related to the rise in injection drug use. A study was carried out in collaboration with a non-governmental organization, Foundation 'Vozvrastcheniye'. Methods: Nine hundred and ten injection drug users participating in the programme were tested for syphilis, HIV, hepatitis C virus (HCV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV); 65 participants who had laboratory markers for syphilis and 45 syphilis-negative serosurvey subjects agreed to participate in a questionnaire study. Results: Syphilis, HIV, HBV and HCV were diagnosed in 12%, 0%, 48% and 79% of drug users, respectively. Prevalence of syphilis seromarkers was nine times higher in females than in males, and strongly associated with sex work. Conclusions: The results of the study indicate that resources to treat and prevent further infections including HIV should be prioritized toward risk reduction in drug injectors and sex workers in St Petersburg.

Objective.To assess the risk-adjusted incidence and predictors of surgical site infections (SSIs).Design.Prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study.Setting.Seven surgical departments at 3 urban academic hospitals in St. Petersburg, Russian Federation.Patients.All patients had surgery performed between January 15 and May 12, 2000. A total of 1,453 surgical procedures were followed up. Medical records were unavailable for less than 3% of all patients; patients were not excluded for any other reason. The mean patient age was 49.3 years, 61% were female, and 34% had an American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification (hereafter, “ASA classification”) of at least 3. Surgery for 45% of the patients was emergent.Results.In all, 138 patients (9.5%) developed SSI, for a rate that was approximately 3.5 times the risk-stratified rates in the United States. Male sex (odds ratio [OR], 1.54), ASA classifications of 3 (OR, 3.7) or 4 (OR, 5.0), longer duration of surgery (OR, 2.2), and wound classes of 3 (OR, 5.5) or 4 (OR, 14.3) were associated with increased SSI risk in multivariate analysis. Endoscopic surgery was associated with a lower risk of SSI (OR, 0.23). Antibiotic prophylaxis was used in 0%-33% of operations, and 69% of uninfected patients received antibiotics after the operation.Conclusions.The SSI rates are significantly higher than previously reported. Although this finding may be attributable to inadequate antibiotic prophylaxis, local infection control and surgical practices may also be contributors. Use of antibiotic prophylaxis should be encouraged and the effect of local practices further investigated. Active SSI surveillance should be expanded to other parts of the Russian Federation.

Abstract. Global climate change is one of the most important scientific, societal and economic contemporary challenges. Fundamental understanding of the major processes driving climate change is the key problem which is to be solved not only on a global but also on a regional scale. The accuracy of regional climate modelling depends on a number of factors. One of these factors is the adequate and comprehensive information on the anthropogenic impact which is highest in industrial regions and areas with dense population – modern megacities. Megacities are not only “heat islands”, but also significant sources of emissions of various substances into the atmosphere, including greenhouse and reactive gases. In 2019, the mobile experiment EMME (Emission Monitoring Mobile Experiment) was conducted within the St. Petersburg agglomeration (Russia) aiming to estimate the emission intensity of greenhouse (CO2, CH4) and reactive (CO, NOx) gases for St. Petersburg, which is the largest northern megacity. St. Petersburg State University (Russia), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (Germany) and the University of Bremen (Germany) jointly ran this experiment. The core instruments of the campaign were two portable Bruker EM27/SUN Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometers which were used for ground-based remote sensing measurements of the total column amount of CO2, CH4 and CO at upwind and downwind locations on opposite sides of the city. The NO2 tropospheric column amount was observed along a circular highway around the city by continuous mobile measurements of scattered solar visible radiation with an OceanOptics HR4000 spectrometer using the differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS) technique. Simultaneously, air samples were collected in air bags for subsequent laboratory analysis. The air samples were taken at the locations of FTIR observations at the ground level and also at altitudes of about 100 m when air bags were lifted by a kite (in case of suitable landscape and favourable wind conditions). The entire campaign consisted of 11 mostly cloudless days of measurements in March–April 2019. Planning of measurements for each day included the determination of optimal location for FTIR spectrometers based on weather forecasts, combined with the numerical modelling of the pollution transport in the megacity area. The real-time corrections of the FTIR operation sites were performed depending on the actual evolution of the megacity NOx plume as detected by the mobile DOAS observations. The estimates of the St. Petersburg emission intensities for the considered greenhouse and reactive gases were obtained by coupling a box model and the results of the EMME observational campaign using the mass balance approach. The CO2 emission flux for St. Petersburg as an area source was estimated to be 89 ± 28 ktkm-2yr-1, which is 2 times higher than the corresponding value in the EDGAR database. The experiment revealed the CH4 emission flux of 135 ± 68 tkm-2yr-1, which is about 1 order of magnitude greater than the value reported by the official inventories of St. Petersburg emissions (∼ 25 tkm-2yr-1 for 2017). At the same time, for the urban territory of St. Petersburg, both the EMME experiment and the official inventories for 2017 give similar results for the CO anthropogenic flux (251 ± 104 tkm-2yr-1 vs. 410 tkm-2yr-1) and for the NOx anthropogenic flux (66 ± 28 tkm-2yr-1 vs. 69 tkm-2yr-1).

The article is devoted to the problem of adaptation of the living environment of the population of large and largest cities to the vital and dangerous challenges of the new coronavirus pandemic. The author suggests that historically developed cities in their traditional hypostasis have a certain” anti-epidemic “ potential of morphotypological genesis, which must be taken into account, it is advisable to use and it is desirable to increase in the extreme situation of the global COVID-19 epidemic. The working hypothesis of the study is formulated on the basis of the results of monitoring the data of the offi cial St. Petersburg statistics, which refl ect the dynamics of the incidence of new coronavirus infection among citizens, starting from March 2020. According to these results, the most stable epidemiological situation persists in the historical suburbs of the” northern capital “ and its central administrative districts. The center of St. Petersburg was originally developed as a “conglomerate of sett lements” - pre-industrial and proto- industrial urban planning morphotypes that have been inherent in the Russian urban planning culture since ancient times. Urban sett lements, which preserved their planning characteristics in the course of a historically predetermined morphotypological transformation, became the basis for the formation of a set of spatial loci in the structure of a megalopolis - separate components of the urban landscape, within which, if necessary, the introduction of stringent control measures and epidemiological situation in St. Petersburg, it is possible to protect “idealizations” quality of urban life and where work most eff ectively medicareinsurance “antipandemic” sliders “disaggregation”, “distancing”, “disinfection”.

Do editorial sections publish a positive ratio of favorable to unfavorable commentary about endorsed candidates and a negative ratio of favorable to unfavorable commentary about unendorsed candidates? A content analysis of the editorial sections of the Miami Herald, St. Petersburg Times, Orlando Sentinel and Tampa Tribune revealed mixed support for the hypothesis. The findings suggest editorial sections in some newspapers may be more internally balanced in their political commentary than previously believed.

The results of 5-year (20132017) measurements of organic (OC) and elemental (EC) carbon aerosol fractions observed at the atmospheric monitoring station near St. Petersburg (Petergof, 59.88 N, 29.83 E) are presented. It is shown that the site of observations is under the influence of local pollution sources most of the time (~74%). The median values of carbonaceous aerosol in polluted conditions are 0.46 g/m3 for ЕС and 2.62 g/m3 for ОС. On average, the maximum excess of the EC background level is achieved in winter (2.4 times in January). The analysis of the ratio between the OC and the EC in the total carbon indicates the predominantly anthropogenic origin of the aerosol under study. In comparison with the data of similar measurements in Central Siberia, the background summer concentrations of carbonaceous aerosol in Peterhof are significantly lower. Some episodes of increased concentrations of OC and EC are attributed to the intensive accumulation of air pollution coming from the nearby megalopolis.

Full textAbstract:
The paper presents the results of studies of the technologically significant properties of municipal solid waste (MSW) compost produced by MSW processing enterprises in St. Petersburg (Russia) where the Dano drum process is implemented. The chemical and microbiological composition of compost, as well as heat during ripening, are investigated. The chemical composition of industrial compost produced in St. Petersburg does not make it possible to use it as fertilizers and soil in agriculture. From the microbiological point of view, NSW compost is not dangerous, but the content of indicator groups of microorganisms classifies it as contaminated soil. The heat generation of compost during ripening is uneven - the largest share of heat 78.5% is released in the first year of maturation. In absolute terms, this value is 3250 kJ/kg by dry weight. To ensure the process is carried out during a period when the compost temperature is higher than the ambient temperature, toxic substances must be added to the compost in an amount not more than 400 times the pollutant content in waste of the 4th hazardclass.

Full textAbstract:
Main sources of pollution of the river Novaya, one of the most ecologically unfavorable water bodies in St. Petersburg, have been revealed on the basis of hydrological, hydrochemical and geochemical data. The river lost natural water supply and its length decreased by 4 times after the runoff from the upper part of catchment was redirected to the river Dudergofka during the construction of the Pulkovo Airport several decades ago. Currently, the river is a drainage system of agricultural territory, supplying a system of six connected ponds at urban area. The main ecological problem of the aquatic system under study has been found to be nutrient and organic pollution. Main reason of pollution is intensive agricultural activity at the catchment area. As a result, a huge amount of phosphorus, nitrogen and organic substances enters the hydrographic network. Low flow rate of the water system makes worse the development of negative processes in the ecosystem. The main polluter is a livestock enterprise located in the upper part of the catchment area. It discharges wastewater into the drainage system in the catchment area and manures agricultural fields directly adjacent to the riverbed. In accordance with the evaluation criteria of the degree of surface waters chemical pollution, approved by the Ministry of Natural Resources of the Russian Federation, the situation is assessed as extreme in the aquatic system, and at some sites - as a zone of ecological disaster by a number of parameters. No contamination of water and bottom sediments, as well as soils in the catchment area with priority organic pollutants previously entering from the airport territory was detected. Nutrient loading on the aquatic system of the catchment area from the agricultural enterprise has been calculated. It has been assessed that the use of the best available technologies for agricultural activity could reduce the phosphorus load by 9 % and the nitrogen load by 28 %. Currently, the calculated concentration of total phosphorus in the drainage system in the catchment area is 4 times higher than the hyper eutrophic state limit. An improvement in the ecological situation can be achieved by optimizing agricultural activity in the catchment area, periodical removal of some nutrients and organic substances by mowing macrophytes in the swampy floodplain area, establishing a coastal protective zone and increasing the flow rate as a result of the return of runoff from the upper part of the river catchment to the former course

Background: The analysis carried out and the forecasted development prospects of the Vsevolozhsk municipal district show the high socio-economic importance of this territory for St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region. This territory is intensively developing, new residential zones are being formed on it, enterprises are opening, new jobs are being created, and recreational zones are being organized. Active housing construction in the municipalities "City of Vsevolozhsk" and "Zanevskoye rural settlement" is accompanied by a significant increase in the population. According to the forecast, in 2041 the population of the municipal formation "City of Vsevolozhsk" will exceed 100 thousand people, of the "Zanevsky rural settlement" - 180 thousand people. The population of the municipalities of St. Petersburg included in the gravitational zone of the maglev transport line in the direction "Vsevolozhsk - St. Petersburg", in 2041 will increase by 1.4 times compared to 2015, amounting to 520 thousand people. The listed tendencies indicate that in the future the intensity of traffic flows will grow and the demand for the use of maglev passenger transport will increase.
Aim: Putting into operation lines of magneto-transport vehicles in places of concentration of growing passenger flows, which will help to reduce travel time, meet freight requirements, improve the quality and increase travel safety when driving along dedicated lanes.
Method: We have described the existing transport service system in Vsevolozhsk. The survey of passenger traffic on bus routes operating between Vsevolozhsk and St. Petersburg was carried out by two methods during the periods of morning and evening peaks, as well as during the inter-peak period: visual method and tabular method. The article gives a characteristic of the uneven distribution of passenger traffic at the Ladozhskaya metro station and the socio-economic characteristics of the pedestrian accessibility zone of stopping points, identifies the maximum passenger traffic and the need for rolling stock.
Results: As the basis for the development of the transport system of urban agglomerations, it is proposed to use magnetolithic transport. For its operation, a special high-speed infrastructure and a new rolling stock are needed. In other words, there is a need for the development and economic evaluation of projects for the construction and operation of magnetolithic transport lines in the formation and implementation of transport strategies of modern urban agglomerations.

The 5-year survival rates for women with breast cancer are steadily increasing. The number of cases of mastectomy for breast cancer is not reduced annually. In this regard, the analysis of epidemiological data on the observations of breast cancer in women in Russia seems to be an urgent activity in terms of predicting measures to optimize the volume of the recovery component of providing medical care to patients who have undergone mastectomy. It was established that in2017 in St. Petersburg the incidence rate of breast cancer reached 60,1100/. The parameter of the prevalence of malignant0000neoplasms of the mammary glands for the analyzed period exceeds the similar all-Russian by 19,3%. The frequency of casesof active detection of breast cancer in 2011-2018. increased 7,2 times. In the same period, the number of working-age urbanwomen diagnosed with breast cancer increased by 16,6%. The proportion of cases of verification of breast cancer of the I - IIstage of the tumor process in 2011-2018 increased by 1,2 times, reaching 72,2% in 2018. From 2011 to 2018, the growth of5-year survival of patients with breast cancer in St. Petersburg reached 4,9%, amounting to 63,4 in 2018% The parameterof annual mortality in breast cancer in 2011-2018 decreased by 30,6%. The performance indicators of the St. PetersburgOncology Service for the treatment of patients with breast cancer are comparable with similar parameters in Moscow clinicsand medical organizations in Russia as a whole. The increase in potential needs for prosthetics of the mammary glands dueto the increase in the number of patients with cancer who underwent mastectomy, in the future will necessitate the expansionof the high-tech types of medical care provided to patients suffering from malignant neoplasms of the mammary glands.

Thyroid tumors are divided into benign and malignant. Special attention should be paid to malignant tumors. A feature of thyroid cancer is its slow progression, compared to other tumor localities, and in the vast majority of cases successful treatment, especially in the early stages of the disease. Thyroid cancer - can be attributed to rare malignancies. Its specific weight in the General structure of oncopathology is about 2.0%, in the structure of mortality from malignant neoplasms-less than 0.5%. Thyroid cancer is registered in women 3-4 times more often than in the male population. Increased attention to the study of the characteristics of the prevalence of thyroid cancer is primarily associated with the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. We can trace the dynamics of morbidity in the population of Leningrad - Saint Petersburg from 1980 to 2018. for the periods before and after the accident. The purpose of our study is to study the dynamics of morbidity in the population of the world, Russia and St. Petersburg with a sharply increased incidence of thyroid cancer. In addition to morbidity and mortality, it is planned to consider such analytical indicators that are practically not used in Russia as the reliability of accounting, partial lethality and five-year survival of patients with thyroid cancer calculated according to the international standard. Every year, more than 13 thousand (13,250 - 2018) new cases of thyroid cancer are registered in Russia. In recent years, in St. Petersburg, more than 150 new cases of malignant neoplasms of this localization of tumors are registered annually among men, and among the female population more than 800. We created the first Russian Population cancer registry in St. Petersburg, which has accumulated a huge amount of information about malignancies, including thyroid cancer. This is one of those localities of malignancies where the specific weight of detected early stages of the disease correlates with the survival rate of patients in stage I and II of the disease, where its value is 98.0%, and the mortality rate of patients for all patients in the first year of observation slightly exceeded 11.0% for men and 4.0% for women.

The escalation of road traffic appears to be a tremendous problem. Various metropolises are influenced by traffic flow congestion and the growth of emissions from petrol usage. In big agglomerations, the expanding quantity of private cars and public transport has caused traffic problems. They have a harmful effect on economy, ecosystem, and on the quality of life in general. It is vital to obtain smart solutions for road traffic management. In this paper, authors propose a way to solve this problem by using smart traffic regulation, which is a part of the bigger smart logistics concept. Agent-based traffic simulation has been chosen to perform this research. This type of modeling is related to the object-oriented way of coding. For modeling and experimental simulation of the intersection in St. Petersburg, AnyLogicmodeling software was used. The results show that proposed algorithm allowed to reduce the average waiting time by 37%. Moreover, the average waiting car number at the intersection has been dropped by 2.5 times after applying the new solution. Thus, projected way of reducing road overload on the selected intersection in St. Petersburg displayed excellent outcomes. However, implementation of the algorithm on other infrastructure objects requires further investigation and analysis.

Background. Inflammatory bowel diseases (ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease) are serious problem in modern gastroenterology, as these diseases affect the working population, have a progressive chronic course, a high risk of disabling complications and require significant costs for the drug management.Aim. We wanted to assess the inflammatory bowel diseases structure and features of the use of basic drugs in outpatient and inpatient treatment in St. Petersburg, Russia.Materials and methods. A cross-sectional study was performed. Data about drug therapy, disease features and demographic from 42 outpatient institutions and from 6 city hospitals for the period 2018–2020 in St. Petersburg was collected. The analysis included data from 617 patients with ulcerative colitis and 455 patients with Crohn’s disease.Results. The median age of patients with ulcerative colitis was 44 years, which was statistically significant more than with Crohn’s disease (39 years). In ulcerative colitis, the left-sided localization of colon lesions (56%) prevailed over total colitis (23%) and proctitis (21%) In Crohn’s disease, the prevalence of ilecocolitis (36%) was approximately equal to the prevalence of colitis (35%), the frequency of terminal ileitis was significantly less (26%), other variants of gastrointestinal lesions were found in 3% cases. In Crohn’s disease compared to ulcerative colitis, the proportion of patients with mild disease was similar (36.6% and 38.2% respectively), but in in Crohn’s disease the frequency of severe disease there was more than three times compared to ulcerative colitis. There has been a significantly higher incidence of surgery in the past for Crohn’s disease compared to ulcerative colitis (14.8% and 2.6%, respectively). The vast majority of patients (more than 80%) received therapy with oral 5-aminosalycilic acid drugs. Topical formulas of 5-aminosalycilic acid drugs in ulcerative colitis were prescribed in about 50% of cases (it was significantly less than commonly used in Crohn’s disease). Corticosteroids were used in the treatment of 16.6% of ulcerative colitis patients and in 24.4% Crohn’s disease patients. In both diseases in the conditions of inpatient treatment, this group of drugs was used several times more often than in outpatient observation. Immunosuppressants (tyopurines, methotrexate) were administered in 6.9% ulcerative colitis patients with and in 17.0% Crohn’s disease patients.Conclusion. Clinical features of inflammatory bowel diseases in St. Petersburg and the features of basic therapy in comparison with the nationwide indicators in Russia demonstrate similar trends. The key problem points of therapy of inflammatory bowel diseases remains the widespread use of drugs of the group of 5-aminosalycilic acid in Crohn’s disease, insufficient use of rectal forms of 5-aminosalycilic acid in ulcerative colitis, a relatively small frequency of use of immunosupressors to maintain remission in Crohn’s disease. The solution to the problem of optimizing the therapy of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases within the framework of routine practice includes educational activities, as well as the creation of a regional register of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases in St. Petersburg.

Background: As part of student research at St. Petersburg architectural-construction University continues to develop alternative proposals for the creation of a circumferential highway at the boundaries of communication areas of St. Petersburg and Leningrad region. The article presents the results of research works on optimization of routing highways, according to the architectural layout of buildings, transport hubs, to study the effects the pre-tension of the puffs and the guys at the reduction of efforts and deformations of the main elements of the highway, the calculations of the designs of the most high and loaded sea area. The construction of the 8-high-speed transport highway was upgraded due to restrictions related to the reconstruction of Levashovo and Pulkovo airports, the transfer of the capital of the Leningrad region to Gatchina, and linking to the promising metro stations Strelna, Yanino and Kudrovo. The upgraded scheme of the highway is proposed in the form of an open polygon with transport and interchange nodes in the corners and is based on load-bearing trestle structures of arched-cable design that provide the necessary functionality, reliability and safety.
Aim: development of a district high-speed transport system on the borders of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region, based on the widespread use of electric transport, with passenger traffic comparable to the metro line.
Materials and Methods: trestle structures are designed for combinations of operating loads, forces and impacts, including consideration of dynamic aspects and non-linearity, using the "SCAD Office" software package.
Results: based on the results of variant design, an arch-cable-stayed version with spans of 180 m and 360 m was adopted as a supporting structure according to the metal consumption criterion, which became the basic one for building a highway of overpass design. From an approximate calculation, it follows that the cost of building a highway on land plots (two-track scheme) compared to the construction of the metro, it is expected to be 5-6 times lower, and on the sea sections 3-4 times lower due to high pylons and deep pile foundations.
Conclusion: the estimated volume of passenger traffic per day for the two-track high-speed and two-track high-speed highways will be 208 thousand passengers, and 76 million passengers per year, which is quite comparable to this indicator for the metro line.

Aim. To determine the association of prehypertension (PHTN) with cardiometabolic and hormonal factors in a population sample of St. Petersburg residents.Material and methods. As part of the ESSE-RF epidemiological study, a random sample of 1600 residents of St. Petersburg at the age of 25-64 was examined. All participants signed informed consent and completed the questionnaires. Anthropometry, fasting venous blood sampling, blood pressure (BP) measurements were performed. BP was measured by the OMRON BP monitor (Japan) twice on the right hand in a sitting position. Mean BP was calculated. Respondents, depending on the BP level and availability of antihypertensive therapy, were divided into 3 groups: optimal BP (<120/80 mm Hg), PHTN (120-139/80-89 mm Hg) and HTN (≥140/90 mm Hg or antihypertensive therapy). Blood levels of insulin, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), thyroid-stimulating hormone, C-reactive protein (CRP), morning cortisol, leptin, adiponectin were assessed. The insulin resistance index was calculated using the Homeostatic Model Assessment (HOMA) according to the following equation: glucose (mmol/l) × insulin (μIU/ml))÷22,5. Mathematical and statistical data analysis was carried out using the SPSS Statistics 26 program.Results. The data from 1591 participants were analyzed. Among the surveyed persons, women predominated (n=1025; 64,4%). With BP increase from optimal to PHTN, HTN, the levels of CRP, insulin, HOMA-IR and leptin increases in male and female respondents. In addition, there is an increased prevalence of hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance in the female population. Multiple logistic regression, adjusted for sex, age, obesity ( body mass index ≥30 kg/m2) and waist circumference (≥102 cm for men and 88 cm for women), revealed associations of PHTN with an increase in insulin >173,0 pmol/L (2,99 [1,22; 7,36], p=0,017), HOMA-IR >2,9 (2,12 [1,42; 3,19], p<0,0001) and associations of HTN with an increase in insulin >173,0 pmol/L (2,14 [1,30; 3,54], p=0,003), HOMA-IR >2,9 (1,83 [1,39; 2,42 ], p536 nmol/L (1,59 [1,25; 2,05], p125 pg/ml (2,05 [1,32; 3,20], p=0,002).Conclusion. In a random sample of St. Petersburg residents, the presence of hyperinsulinemia increases the risk of PHTN and insulin resistance by 3 and 2 times, respectively.

Vladimir Kantor’s new book Demythologisation of Russian culture is concerned with interaction of world cultures and the turning points in the world history — the fall of the Roman Empire, World War I, Russian Revolution of 1917, etc. What drives the masses in times of war and revolutions; how mob mentality takes over society, and how the truth known to an individual defies widespread delusion; what is the nature of the myth and of the two principal events of world history — ‘the life and death of a living being’ — each of these questions receives an answer in seventeen essays on key figures of Russian culture: Peter I, A. Pushkin, I. Turgenev, F. Dostoevsky, A. Chernyshevsky, M. Katkov, A. Kerensky, M. Gorky et al. Published as an addendum to the book is Kantor’s short story ‘The death of a retiree’ [‘Smert pensionera’], supplied with a dedicated article ‘On the event of death’ by K. Barsht.

Full textAbstract:
Background. The purpose of this study was to identify IgE-antibodies to the major and minor allergenic components of pets in the blood serum of patients with bronchial asthma and/or allergic rhinitis (BA/AR). Methods. The study included 327 patients from Moscow and St. Petersburg. All of them were detected for specific IgE-antibodies (IgE-AB) to the animal allergens by ImmunoCAP® (ThermoFisherScientific, Sweden). 105 patients wanted to detect IgE-AB to the main animal allergens molecules ImmunoCAP ISAC® (ThermoFisherScientific, Sweden). Results. In the sera of 327 patients IgE-AB to cat’s (62%) allergen dominated. IgE-antibodies to dog’s, house dust mites (D.pteronyssinus, D. farinae), mold fungi, horses and rodents allergens were found in 2,6-31 times less. IgE-AB to uteroglobin (rFel d 1), major cat allergen, was detected in 80% of patients (84/105). The detection rate of IgE-AB to other cat allergens was 4,2-8 times lower (rFel d 2 - 10%, nFel d 4 - 19%). IgE-AB to major dog allergen rCan f 1 was detected in 39% of patients (41/105). Positive level of IgE-AB to other dog allergens was detected in 2,2-4,9 times lower (rCan f 2 - 8%, nCan f 3 - 9%, rCan f 5 - 18%). Positive level of IgE-AB to lipocalin was assayed in 6% of patients, to serum albumin - in 7%. Conclusion. Prevalence of IgE-AB to cat and dog allergens was almost 3 times higher than the frequency of detection of IgE-AB to house dust mite allergens in citizens of Moscow and S. Petersburg. The frequency of IgE-AB to rFel d 1 was dominated and detected 2 and 4-11 times often than to rCan f 1 and other animal allergens consequently.

The objective of the research was to study the dynamics of health indices of children and adolescents of the city of Saint Petersburg for 20 years. We analyzed official statistical data of general and primary morbidity rate of children aged of 0-14 years and adolescents aged 15-17 years, the incidence of chronic diseases in schoolchildren (7-17 years), as well as there was held a comparative analysis of the health state of senior schoolchildren in 5 Saint Petersburg schools with advanced content of education based on indices of the pathological prevalence rate, physical development, non-specific resistance, adaptation status. The study was executed according to approved standard methods. In the study, over a 20-year period there was revealed a steady trend of health deterioration of children and adolescent population of the city as a whole, and schoolchildren enrolled in the program with advanced content of education as well. The prevalence rate of diseases in children has increased by 72.0%, while primary morbidity increased by 70.4%. Adolescents aged 15-17 years showed more pronounced gain of indices than in children, the level of general and primary morbidity rate has increased by 2 times. In the structure of general and primary morbidity of children and adolescents first ranking places were held by respiratory diseases, injuries, poisoning, diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue. In chronic morbidity of schoolchildren there were prevailed diseases of the musculoskeletal system, diseases of the eye and its appendages, respiratory diseases. There was established the gain in the pathological prevalence rate in schoolchildren with advanced content of education. In the majority of the surveyed high school students there were diagnosed polysystemic changes in health status. Negative trends in the health status of children and adolescents of the city of Saint - Petersburg were confirmed by indices of nonspecific resistance: immunological tests, key elements of protective enzyme systems of the body. In order to stabilize the growth of children and adolescent incidence there were suggested directions of prevention work.

For the treatment of patients with severe multysistem pelvic trauma accompanied by pelvic bleeding, many algorithms have been proposed that have different procedures for the use of various methods of surgical hemostasis, but none of them may guarantee the complete arrest of pelvic bleeding. The purpose of this study was to estimate clinical efficacy and developed algorithm, aimed at timely diagnosis of intrapelvic bleeding and its complete arrest with the help of different methods of surgical hemostasis in patients with severe concomitant injury of the pelvis. The article analyzes the results of treatment of 168 patients with unstable pelvic ring injuries and signs of intrapelvic bleeding, who were treated in two trauma centers of the first level in St. Petersburg: I.I. Dzhanelidze St. Petersburg Research Institute of Emergency Medicine and Military Surgery Clinic of S.M. Kirov Military Medical Academy in 2010-2018. The victims were divided into two statistically homogeneous groups. In the comparison group (75 people), the pelvic ring was mechanically stabilized with the Ganz C-clamp or the anterior part of the pelvis was fixed with an external fixation device (EFD), and the arrest of the ongoing pelvic bleeding was expected due to occur due to the effect of biological tamponade. In the main group (93 people), after mechanical stabilization of the pelvic ring, various methods of surgical hemostasis were used: balloon occlusion of the aorta, pelvic tamponade, angiography with embolization. The choice of method for surgical haemostasis after trauma depended on the severity of the affected condition of hemodynamic parameters, availability of life-threatening consequences of damage to other areas of the body and the efficacy of previously applied method for intrapelvic bleeding arrest. The introduction of modern diagnostic and treatment algorithm, aimed at complete hemostasis in patients with ongoing intrapelvic bleeding reduced the overall mortality rate by 1.7 times, mortality within 24 hours of admission by 2.3 times, as well as the duration and the volume of blood transfusion therapy by 3 and 1.8 times.Authors declare lack of the conflicts of interests.

Full textAbstract:
In his book, Essipov contrasts ‘myths’ with ‘reality’, namely, historical facts and documents unearthed by the scholar through exploration of Pushkin’s works and the poet’s world. Essipov’s judgement of the value of findings by fellow Pushkin scholars and their approach to the study of the poet’s works published during his lifetime relies on Pushkin’s holistic personality. The same paradigm is assumed to solve the perennial problems of Pushkin studies. There is plenty of evidence that Essipov prefers working with poetry and is capable of a dedicated analysis of individual words, words groups, stanzas, leitmotifs, dates, numbers, and metres. However, analysis of Pushkin’s works as artistically complete forms, characterized by a special genre-specific meaning and connected with the poet’s life and times obliquely rather than directly, presents an altogether different challenge.

The article presents data on bleeding-related maternal mortality in St. Petersburg, North-West Federal District and in the Russian Federation. 6 times reduction of maternal mortality per 100 000 live births was observed in Russian Federation during the last three decades, however, the structure of maternal mortality due to bleeding, changes in the direction of increasing of rate of placental localization abnormalities and placenta previa. This trend may be related to the steady growth of the caesarean section rate. Particular attention is given to the formation of groups of patients at risk of developing obstetric hemorrhage, full examination, prevention of coagulopathy, the timely detection of placental localization abnormalities and placenta accreta. The article reviews the current approaches to prevention of obstetric hemorrhage using drugs, surgical techniques, and blood saving technologies.

Full textAbstract:
The article addresses an important, although little-studied, issue concerning the history of the Court Department in the 18th century. Drawing on documents from the Russian State Historical Archive, the author examines the procedure of formation and restructuring of the institutions in charge of construction works carried out in St. Petersburg for the Imperial family. He insists that creation of the special bureau should be dated 1732, when Anna Ioannovna put Hofintendant Kormedon in charge of the Imperial residences repair works. The article follows the decline of the Hofintendant’s office (Gof-Intendatskaya kontora) in the hierarchy of the Court Department structures. Its first step downwards was its subordination to Oberhofmeister, baron Christian Wilhelm von M?nnich. Its subordination was later changed several more times, while continuing as a separate subdivision, until its abolishment in 1765. The article puts it into the contest of global reforms of the system of construction and repair works of the Imperial family residences. It was preceded by an inspection of the Collegium of Accounting. The reform resulted in replacement of independent Chancellery for construction of houses and gardens (Kantselyariya ot stroenii domov i sadov), Hofintendant’s Office, Office of the ‘Winter House’ (Kontora ‘Zimnemu Domu’), and Peterhof Office (Peterhofskaya kontora) by a single Office for Construction of HM Houses and Gardens (Kontora ot stroenii EV domov i sadov). The next phase did not start until after Paul I’s accession to the throne. The Emperor demanded that all administration of construction and repair works at the palaces and its outbuildings, all planning of court gardens and parks be carried out by Hofintendant’s service and eventually ordered to rename the Office for Construction of HM Houses and Gardens into the Hofintendant’s. The article notes the conformity of names from the Hofintendant’s Office of 1730s to the Hof-Intendant’s of 1797, indicating a basic continuity.

Full textAbstract:
Child sexual exploitation (CSE) is a major risk factor for acquiring human immunodeficiency virus/sexually transmitted infections (HIV/STI), violence and other health concerns, yet few studies have examined these associations in Russia until now. This study examines the prevalence of CSE (those entering the sex trade as a minor) among women in the sex trade in Russia and how exposures and behaviors related to violence and HIV/STI structural risks differ from those who entered the sex trade as an adult. Women in the sex trade (N = 896) in St. Petersburg and Orenburg, Russia were recruited via time-location sampling and completed structured surveys. Adjusted logistic regression analyses assessed associations between CSE victimization and HIV risk-related exposures. Of the 654 participants who provided their age at first sexual exploitation, 11% reported CSE prior to age 18. Those who reported CSE were more likely to be organized by others and to be prohibited from leaving a room or house and from using condoms; three-quarters experienced rape when trading sex; a third were involved in pornography before age 18 and they had less education if they entered the sex trade as a minor. In adjusted analyses, those entering the sex trade as a minor were significantly more likely than those entering the sex trade as an adult to report drug use prior to age 18 (AOR = 5.75, 95% CI = 2.53–13.09) to have ≥5 clients/day (past 12 months; AOR = 3.55, 95% CI = 1.56–8.08), to report receiving police assistance (AOR: 3.10, 95% CI = 1.26–7.54), and to have fewer experiences of police extortion (AOR = 0.35, 95% CI = 0.10–1.24). They were four times more likely to participate in pornography before the age of 18 (AOR = 4.08, 95% CI = 1.32, 12.60) and three times more likely to have been sexually abused as child (AOR = 2.93, 95% CI = 1.27, 7.54). Overall, entry as a minor was related to greater risk for victimization and an inability to protect oneself from STI/HIV.

This article deals with the actual problem of high nitrate content in vegetables and fruits. The literature review describes the consequences of increased nitrate concentration in the human body and the diseases associated with it. Different countries have different standards for the content of nitrates in agricultural products and the maximum permissible daily doses. The increased content of nitrates negatively affects human health, so it is necessary to maintain strict control over compliance with the concentration standards to the maximum permissible concentrations. Research was carried out on the content of nitrates in vegetables and fruits purchased in the trade networks of the two countries in Russia and Mongolia. The measurements were performed using a portable nitrate - tester SOEKS. As a result of the study, it was found that agricultural products purchased in the trade network of Ulan Bator (Mongolia) meet the established standards, in fruits purchased in St. Petersburg (Russia) in excess of tangerines 1.5 times and 1.6 times. The products that were found to contain excess nitrates were imported from China.

Professor Sergei Iakovlevich Kulnev, student and follower of the founder of the Russian syphilidology Veniamin Mikhailovich Tarnovsky, was the head of the Department of Skin and Venereal Diseases at St. Petersburg Medical Institute for Women in the difficult years of its formation – from 1903 to 1924. In fact, the merit of establishing the Department with clinic in the newly formed educational institution for women belongs to him. In 1913, with the active participation of S.Ia. Kulnev, the separate building for the Department of Skin and Venereal Diseases was built, and to this day, it is still located at this premise. Also, for almost a quarter of a century (from 1901 to 1924) S.Ia. Kulnev was the chief physician of the Kalinkinsky Hospital, the oldest specialized dermatological and venereal hospital in Russia and in Europe, where, in fact, Russian syphilidology was born.In Soviet times, the merits of S.Ia. Kulnev who was an actual state councillor and representative of the famous noble Russian family, as an organizer of the Department with Clinic of Skin and Venereal Diseases, was undeservedly ignored.His activity appeared to be in the shadow of achievements of his brightest students, graduates of Medical Institute for Women A. A. Sakhnovskaia and O.N. Podvysotskaia, who alternately headed the Department after the death of Sergei Iakovlevich.The objective of the article, dedicated to the 160th anniversary of the birth of Professor Kulnev, was the desire to pay tribute to the memory of a remarkable physician, teacher and man, whose whole life was devoted to the development of Dermatovenereology and the organization of women’s medical education in Russia. The property of S. Ia. Kulnev is not only a thing of the past. His works laid the foundation of today’s educational, scientific and medical activities of the Dermatovenereology Department of Pavlov First St. Petersburg State Medical University.
