Abstract
Introduction. The relevance of the work is due to the increased protest activity of young people in recent years, resulting from the dissatisfaction with the actions of the supreme authorities. Young people’s solidarity on a number of sociopolitical issues and the ability to consolidate in protest activity, if the situation requires it, invite considerations of the presence of a serious protest potential among young people. The purpose of the work is to study the influence of the Russian segment of YouTube on the formation of the protest potential of young people in a region. Materials and Methods. The article presents the materials of the sociological survey ‘Analysis of the Potential of YouTube as a Factor in the Formation of the Protest Movement among Young People’ conducted using the sampling method (availability sampling) in accordance with the methodology devised by J. Mueller and K. Schuessler. Results. The study has revealed that the overwhelming majority of young people in the region are aware of various protests taking place in Russia. An interesting and at the same time contradictory trend of ‘ageing’ of the protest potential in the regions has been noticed: the older the respondents are the more proportion of them watch ‘oppositional’ YouTube channels. The ‘oppositional’ channels most viewed by young people have been identified, they are: Alexey Navalny’s сhannel, ‘Dozhd’ (TV Rain) channel, ‘Kamikadzedead’, ‘VALERON 2%’, and ‘Novosti SVERKHDERZHAVY’ (Superpower News). Discussion and Conclusion. Analysis of the research results has shown that YouTube is the second most popular media resource in Russia and, along with social networks, is becoming an influential discourse platform for discussing socially important domestic issues, where the so-called ‘oppositional’ YouTube channels have a significant influence on public opinion, form a news agenda, set the tone for public debate. The results of the study can be used by the authorities in improving regional information and socio-economic policies, by law enforcement officers and special services for the development and planning of programs to prevent manifestations of extremism.

Summary
Ensuring the safety of medicines is the basis for the existence and functioning of any pharmacovigilance system as a type of activity aimed at obtaining and processing information about the undesirable consequences of the use of medicines. Исследование особенностей функционирования систем фармаконадзора в странах – участницах международной программы мониторинга безопасности лекарственных средств позволило выделить несколько типов организации сбора информации о нежелательных реакциях лекарственных средств: централизованный, децентрализованный и смешанный. Такой тип организации системы фармаконадзора представлен, например, в США, где все контролирующие функции в сфере оборота лекарственных средств возложены на Управление по санитарному надзору за качеством пищевых продуктов и медикаментов (Food and Drug Administration, FDA), которое является одним из федеральных исполнительных департаментов Министерства здравоохранения и социальных служб США. Основой функционирования централизованной системы фармаконадзора в США является программа MedWatch, позволяющая специалистам здравоохранения, пациентам и потребителям предоставлять в FDA информацию о нежелательных реакциях, возникающих при применении рецептурных и безрецептурных лекарственных средств, особенностях применения биологических препаратов, специальных пищевых продуктов (например, детских питательных смесей), а также о медицинских приборах и косметологических средствах. The centralized type of organization of the pharmacovigilance system exemplified by the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
