Abstract

Based on the annual statistical reports for 2018–2023 and the cumulative median prevalence of various studies in 2009–2020 in Russia, the prevalence of peptic ulcer with uncomplicated and complicated course and various forms of gastritis in servicemen of the Regardie of the North Caucasian District was estimated, and the current trends are explained. The incidence of peptic ulcer with uncomplicated and complicated course and various forms of gastritis among the servicemen of the Regardie of the North Caucasian District for the specified period ranged from 11.521% to 16.351% (confidence interval: 10.515–12.588 and 15.233–17.517, respectively) and from 27.212% to 51.889% (confidence interval: 25.791–28.669 and 50.316–53.460, respectively). Random effects analysis has demonstrated different true effect sizes relative to the overall average. The revealed statistical patterns are only the first stage in an ongoing study on the prevalence of upper gastrointestinal diseases among the servicemen of the Regardie of the North Caucasian District. In general, the prevalence of peptic ulcer disease, including with a complicated course, and various forms of gastritis among military personnel was 13.270% and 37.679%, respectively (confidence interval: 10.617–16.170 and 24.292–52.102, respectively), showing an upward trend. The expected prevalence of peptic ulcer and gastritis in 2023 was 16,351 and 51,889%, respectively, which is not accidental and depends on the impact of specific risk factors. The identification of risk factors enables the development of measures to prevent delayed complications of the pathology under study and improvement of health in servicemen of the Regardie of the North Caucasian District. Thus, the study of the health status of the general population and military personnel, in particular, and the effect of various environmental factors determines their social significance both in military medicine and the structure of the healthcare system.
