The List includes the following diseases: disease caused by HIV, tuberculosis, viral hepatitis B and C, sexually transmitted diseases, diabetes mellitus, malignant neoplasms, mental and behavioral disorders, hypertensive disease — 9 diseases in total.

As a result, primary incidence in Russia declined in 2018 as compared to 2005: in active tuberculosis by 1.9 times, in syphilis — by 4 times. The number of patients taken under observation with diagnosis established for the first time in life, also declined: in mental disorders by 1.4 times, in alcoholism by 2.8 times, and in drug addiction by 1.7 times. And within these 13 years was registered an increase of primary incidence in non-communicable diseases: in hypertension by 1.9 times, diabetes mellitus by 1.4 times, malignant neoplasms by 1.2 times, and in infectious disease caused by HIV by 2.5 times. There were identified the causes of these differently directed dynamics.
