Эпидемиология эрозивно-язвенных заболеваний желудка и двенадцатиперстной кишки у детей и подростков Краснодарского края

Abstract

The aim of the research is to study the influence of different pollution levels on clinical and epidemiologic aspects in erosive ulcerous diseases of gastric mucosa and duodenum in children and teenagers. Materials and methods: the research is carried out in Krasnodar region and it consists of two stages. At first stage 47 territories of Krasnodar region are ecologically assessed, at second stage epidemiologic rate (prevalence and sickness rate) of erosive ulcerous diseases of gastric mucosa and duodenum in children and teenagers in Krasnodar region are studied according to data regarding visits to the health care centers and calls of the special medical crews against the ecological condition of the territory. Results. Ecological state of the territories in Krasnodar region differs as per anthropogenic load intensity. Low levels of pollution are indicative for regions with favorable ecology (15 regions), medium levels - for regions with conditional favorable ecology (17 regions), and high levels of pollution - for regions with unfavorable ecology (15 regions). There is a numeric dependency between number of children and teenagers visiting health care centers and the level of anthropogenic pollution of regions where they live. The number of children visiting health care centers in connection with erosive ulcerous diseases of gastric mucosa and duodenum is 2.3 times higher, of teenagers - 1.5 times higher against number of patients from regions with favorable ecology.
