Disability trends among elderly Ukrainians in war conditions: a 10-year retrospective study

AimNon-communicable diseases (NCDs) in elderly are a significant problem in Ukraine. It is expected that the ongoing war will augment this problem. The study aimed to analyze the trends of disability due to NCDs s in newly-diagnosed elderly patients between 2013 and 2023.MethodsThis retrospective study included data obtained from the official document “Report on the Causes of Disability and Indications for Medical, Professional, and Social Rehabilitation” commissioned by the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. The data on disability due to NCDs s were obtained from for 2013–2023.ResultsDuring the 2013–2021 the average number of disabled elderly patients due to NCDs per 10,000 elderly persons was significantly lower in compare with working-age. During the first year of full-scaled war the average number of disabled elderly patients due to NCDS s per 10,000 elderly persons dramatically increased by 2-fold, and in 2023 – by 2.8-fold against 2013 value (p < 0.05), while in working-age the disability rate increased significantly only in 2023 by 1.4-fold compared to the pre-war level. In 2013–2021 the main causes of disability among those related to NCDs in elderly were cardiovascular diseases, followed by cancer. In 2022 compared to the pre-war level, the indicators of disability of the elderly due to CVD increased by 1.5 times, due to cerebrovascular diseases - by 2.2 times, due to cancer - by 1.7 times, due to musculoskeletal diseases - by 2 times (p < 0.05). The most significant increase in the number of elderly people with disabilities during the full-scale war occurred due to coronary artery disease - by 55.1%, and osteoarthritis - by 83.4% from baseline in 2013. It estemated the differences in indicators of disability of elderly between regions of Ukraine, significantly higher indicators of disability of the elderly due to cardiovascular diseases, cancer, cerebrovascular diseases, musculoskeletal diseases were noted in the frontline regions.ConclusionsData on primary disability among elderly Ukrainians indicates a significant increase in NCDs-related disability during the war in compare with working population, especially in frontline regions and regions with a high concentration of displaced persons. In this structure of NCDs-related increasing disability, CVD, oncology and musculoskeletal diseases system prevailed.

Social entrepreneurship: an innovative tool for solving social problems in Ukraine

It is indicated that in the modern world, where social and environmental problems are becoming increasingly acute, social entrepreneurship appears as an innovative and effective tool for solving them. This phenomenon is at the intersection of business and charity, combining an entrepreneurial approach with a social mission. This article explores the phenomenon of social entrepreneurship as an innovative tool for addressing social and environmental challenges in the modern world. It examines the relevance of developing social entrepreneurship in the context of the UN’s global sustainable development goals and in conditions of limited state resources to meet growing social needs. The author analyzes the historical roots of social entrepreneurship, tracing its evolution from the 17th century to the present day. Special attention is given to the «Triple Bottom Line» concept (profit, people, planet), which underlies social entrepreneurship, and the ideas of Nobel laureate M. Yunus regarding «social business». The article discusses the key characteristics of social entrepreneurship that distinguish it from traditional business, and the principles of social enterprise operation. The author identifies three main models of social entrepreneurship: inclusive, social reinvestment, and innovative social model. Particular attention is paid to the legal aspect of social entrepreneurship in Ukraine, specifically the absence of a special organizational and legal form for such activities and the opportunities provided by current legislation. The author emphasizes the role of social entrepreneurship in the development of the economy and civil society, particularly in job creation, overcoming social isolation, and promoting civic participation. The categories of population for whom social entrepreneurship is especially relevant are considered. The conclusions highlight the potential of social entrepreneurship as a tool for achieving sustainable development and building a more inclusive society, as well as the need for further research in this field, especially in the context of post-COVID reality and the state of war in Ukraine.

Removing the arrests unlawfully seized by the state or private enforcement officer on the vehicle that belongs to one who is not a debtor under enforcement proceedings

To date, there is a legal problem in Ukraine, which is the result of a large number of illegal actions of state and private enforcement agents related to the seizure ofa vehicle that once belonged to the debtor in enforcement proceedings, but which at the time of the enforcement proceedings commencement or the imposition of the relevant arrest is the ownership of another person who is not a debtor under enforcement proceedings. Illegal actions of law-enforcement officers and the imperfection of the legislation of Ukraine violate the property rights of bona fide purchasers, do not allow them to take actions regarding the registration of the vehicle in the bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, and force them to go to court to protect their rights. However, it should be noted that in most cases, legal ignorance and imperfect justification of the legal position become the basis for refusing to grant such a claim. In this regard, this article presents the results of a scientific and legal study of the issue, identifies the gaps in the legislation of Ukraine that led to this problem, and also provides recommendations for lawmakers to perform changes to the legislation of Ukraine that could address the issue. Additionally, the article provides legal conclusions on determining the ownership of a vehicle (in particular, the moment of transfer of ownership from the seller to the buyer), taking into account the peculiarities of vehicle registration in the bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, as well as on determining the legal status of such a vehicle registration procedure means and determination of the legal status of the actions of state and private enforcement officers regarding the seizure of the transport property of a person who is not a debtor in enforcement proceedings. In addition, the paper provides legal conclusions regarding the existing options for applying to the courts with requests to remove the wrongful seizure from the vehicle.

Problems and prospects of realizing gender equality in the security and defense sector of Ukraine

Since 2014, Ukraine has been actively defending its borders and sovereignty from the armed aggression of the Russian Federation. Since February 24, 2022, with the outbreak of a new wave of war, Ukraine has faced many new security and defense challenges related to the protection of national interests and freedom, as well as the rights of servicemen, military organization, command and control. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, 60,000 women have been serving in Ukraine, 42,000 of them are military personnel. Therefore, raising issues such as equal rights and opportunities for women and men in the military is extremely relevant today. Deep-rooted stereotypes and prejudices about gender roles in society are one of the reasons for this inequality, which is not only a problem in Ukraine but also a global one.

Impact of war on stroke incidence in Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine

Stroke is an extensive health problem in Ukraine, the prominence and effects of which are aggravated by the burden of the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian War. In this study, we aimed to holistically examine the overall stroke epidemiology in Ivano-Frankivsk using data from a secondary healthcare center in the city. We determine an increasing trend in stroke admissions since 2020, with a notable 22.4% increase in 2023, mainly due to ischemic stroke occurrence. In the same year, a significant non-linear relationship between stroke incidence and frequency of news about attacks was observed. Ordinal regression analysis of general sociodemographic, clinical, and healthcare-related factors influencing outcomes for intravenous thrombolysis-treated patients, revealed the significance of the 24-h National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score (0.32 ± 0.03) and interaction of age and Door-to-Needle Time (− 0.28 ± 0.08). However, the extension of the latter independently is not significantly correlated with patient outcomes. In conclusion, war-induced stress, intranational migrations, and lack of adequate chronic cardiovascular disease management are primarily responsible for these results. Modulations and improvements to the current healthcare system, including managing chronic diseases and early stroke symptom recognition, are necessary to optimize patient outcomes.

ANALYSIS OF THE NUMBER OF DEATHS DUE TO POISONING BY THE MOST COMMON POISONOUS SUBSTANCES IN THE LVIV REGION IN 2018-2023

Drunkenness is an acute social and cultural problem in Ukraine. Alcoholic poisoning occupies a leading position among household poisonings. Alcohol is the cause of more than 60% of all fatal poisonings. Each year, more than 40,000 people in Ukraine die from alcohol poisoning. Carbon monoxide poisoning also occupies a leading position, the statistics are very sad, adults die, children die. Poisoning with narcotics and psychotropic substances is a very urgent medical and social problem, which is far from being solved today. Aim of the work. To analyse the mortality rate due to poisoning by the most common types of poisons by age and sex of the deceased in Lviv and the region for the period 2018-2023. Materials and methods. In the work, a statistical analysis of expert conclusions from the archive of the Lviv Regional Bureau of Forensic Medicine for the period 2018-2023 was conducted. Results. The article provides quantitative indicators of cases of fatal poisoning, their prevalence trends, identifies the most common poisonous substances, and analyses mortality rates by age and sex. Conclusions. There is a downward trend in the total number of deaths due to poisoning. In 2023, the number of poisoning deaths will be almost halved compared to 2018. The most common poison is ethyl alcohol, 60% of people from the total number of poisonings, the second place in terms of number of deaths was carbon monoxide poisoning 21.5%, the third place was poisoning by narcotic substances 5.1%. Mortality due to poisoning in men is more than 5 times higher than in women, and men in their 40s and 50s die most often.

MARKET OF PRODUCTS OF THE FEED INDUSTRY IN TODAY'S CONDITIONS

The article is devoted to the study of the state and prospects for the development of the feed industry market in Ukraine. The main reasons for the unstable activity of subjects of compound feed production, such as the high sensitivity of the market to changes in the grain industry, the limitation of the available raw material base, the lack of high-tech production in the necessary volumes, the constant increase in costs for the production of compound feed products, the insufficient development of the market infrastructure, the lack of sufficient solvent demand. The war in Ukraine affected the demand for compound feed products, production, sales, and logistics. The article provides statistical data of the Ukrainian market in 2022–2023 on the volume of compound feed production and the prices of compound feed components, namely grain and oil crops. Considering the export problems in Ukraine, raw materials are competitive in price policy. This situation is favorable for the Ukrainian production of compound feed, which, in turn, allows to increase the production of animal husbandry products . State influence in the direction of vertical integration makes it possible to control the beginning of the production chain, primarily grain producers to ensure the sale of agricultural products, protection from price fluctuations in raw materials markets, and flexible response to consumer requests. State stimulation of research and innovation , such as providing financial support and incentives for research in the field of compound fodder production, will contribute to the development of new technologies , improvement of feed quality, and increased competitiveness . To date, compound feed producers have overcome infrastructure challenges associated with the loss of logistics chains, damaged businesses, and demonstrated positive development trends and sustainable economic performance.

Renovation with height increasing of residential buildings of the 1960s made of precast concrete

For many years, an urgent problemin Ukraine is a technical renovation of the existing housing stock of mass-series buildings. Most of them were built with precast concrete elements inthe 1960s–1970s. The design lifecycle of such buildings was determined for 25 years. Therefore they have obsolescence and backwardness. That expressed in inconformity with modern design codes for residential buildings, the absence of elevators, the unavailability of engineering communications, low heat and energy efficiency and environmental compatibility of such buildings. On the other hand, the technical examinations of concrete structures of such houses showed that at least 80 % of them havenot depleted their bearing capacity resource. The problem of buildings renovation was especially emphasized by the destructive consequences of theRussian federation armed aggression in Ukraine. The paper describes the experience of renovation with reconstruction of the old 5-storey residential building into modern 9-storey multi-apartment residential building. Construction works included redevelopment of the interior space, elevator installation, and replacement of the utilities by the modern ones and using of up-to-date technologies to improve the energy efficiency of the building. The project provides increasing the number of stories.

Development of an economic and information system for the optimization of city traffic flows

The paper presents a critical analysis of current approaches to reorganizing urban transportation routes. It proposes addressing the problem of optimizing traffic flows as a multidimensional issue encompassing social and economic aspects. An economic-information model for continuous monitoring and optimization of urban traffic flow configurations based on the criterion of congestion wait time has been developed. The calculation of the economic consequences of such waiting time is proposed. The developed system has practical significance and can be applied in managing traffic flows as an economic subsystem of the city within its socio-economic system. Urban transportation infrastructure in Ukraine faces significant challenges due to social changes, including increasing passenger flow, extended waiting times, and the need to adhere to modern urban planning standards. Current trends involve redistributing street and road space based on principles of equal access and safety. This includes pilot actions, intermediate reconstruction, and comprehensive reorganization of urban space and transportation routes. Proposed methods for enhancing transportation infrastructure include improving government management, implementing proactive management strategies, executing investment projects, establishing public-private partnerships, temporarily reducing tax burdens, developing comprehensive solutions for consumers, and optimizing transportation pricing. These strategies aim to address the pressing problems in Ukraine's transport sector and facilitate sustainable development and growth. The study focuses on the financing of infrastructural projects in Dnipro city through the municipal budget. It proposes integrating economic-mathematical models into a unified economic-information system for optimizing traffic flows, allowing for continuous monitoring and improvement. This system emphasizes minimizing congestion wait times and can adapt to dynamic changes in traffic patterns, ensuring efficient and effective urban traffic management. By implementing this system, the city can enhance its transportation network, contributing to overall economic efficiency and better quality of life for its residents.

InnoVATIVeneSS OF THE UKRAINIAN EConoMY on THE WAY to THE EU

The article is devoted to the assessment of the level of innovativeness of the Ukrainian economy in comparison with the innovativeness of the economies of the European Union countries based on the Global Innovation Index 2023 and the justification of ways to increase it in the course of advancing to full membership in the EU. In the course of the study, the hypothesis that there is a close connection between the level of the country’s development, which is measured by the GDP per capita indicator in the model, and the absolute value of the global innovation index was confirmed (correlation coefficient is 0.868). However, Ukraine, which belongs to the group with a below-average GDP per capita indicator, is ahead of more than 30 countries with high and above-average GDP per capita indicators according to the Global innovation index. This strengthens the hope that the creation of the necessary conditions for the realization of innovative potential will be able to accelerate economic growth and lead to a significant increase in GDP in the post-war period. The comparison of the global index of innovativeness of Ukraine with the similar indicator of the EU countries carried out in the article showed a certain lag of our country, which arose in recent years, which can be explained by Russian aggression. However, this lag is not fundamental and can be overcome in a short time. Moreover, among the candidate countries for joining the EU, Ukraine ranks among the top three in terms of innovativeness. Therefore, such a lag should not become an obstacle on the way to the EU. A more detailed analysis of individual indicators that form the global index of innovativeness revealed significant heterogeneity of the innovative environment of the Ukrainian economy, because its rating according to these indicators ranges from 1 to 130. Ukraine’s achievements in performance indicators, which are calculated in relation to GDP, are quite good, which once again confirmed the conclusion that there is a disproportion between the potential and actual volumes of production. The biggest lag is recorded in the indicators related to the business environment, its stability and the legal norms that regulate it. A serious problem for Ukraine is the lack of market and organizational infrastructure. These issues should become the object of special attention of the state on the way to the EU.

Current sports safety problems in Ukraine and the world

The article is devoted to the analysis and assessment of current problems and challenges faced by sports in Ukraine and the world, in connection with global crisis processes that lead to profound social changes. In recent years, the issue of sports safety in the world has become more relevant against the background of the COVID-19 pandemic, and in Ukraine due to military operations on its territory. Thus, security protocols are gradually undergoing changes and actions to ensure security of various levels are adapted to modern conditions. Safety instructions for mass sports events of various levels, orders of specialized services and ministries of various countries regarding the organization of events on their territory, government resolutions and laws regulating the safety of athletes, spectators and sports facilities were analyzed. Globalization processes are rapidly changing, which requires quick solutions without losing their quality. The topic of sports safety has become more relevant in recent decades. Sport is a global phenomenon that unites representatives of all social groups and strata. Although the official slogan of the international sports movement, which is supported by all its members, is: "Sports outside of politics", but at the same time, it is a powerful means of political influence and manipulation. History has seen many boycotts driven by political decisions in response to wrongful or military actions by one party against another. Everyone remembers the terrorist attacks committed at the Olympic Games and other international competitions. All this led to the intensification of the development of research in the field of sports safety. At the same time, sports competitions, especially international ones, attract the attention of a large number of spectators, which causes the desire of world political leaders, public figures, representatives of culture and art, etc. to participate in them.The study showed that the process of adaptation and response is imperfect and requires careful study and analysis, which determines the relevance of the topic.

Children need support and care for their growth and the formation of the ideology of the rule of law and legal awareness. The freedoms and rights of children should be in the first place, both at the national and international levels.

ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ЗМІШАНОГО НАВЧАННЯ В УМОВАХ ВІЙНИ

The article deals with the issues of applying mixed learning techniques for the formation of the students’ professional competence at higher medical educational institutions under wartime conditions. It is found out the essence of the concept of “mixed learning”, its peculiarities, methods, advantages and disadvantages, which must be taken into account to train a future healthcare worker. The need of mastering mixed learning basic techniques for the correct organization of the educational process is emphasized. English communicative approach to medical students’ professional competence is an integral aspect of professionally oriented study at the higher medical educational institution. Military actions in the country require the application of new principles and practices of higher medical education transformation. Therefore, the issue of mixed education for students of medical institutions of higher education under wartime conditions is one of the most crucial problems in Ukraine. Attention is focused on the need to organize and establish a high-quality educational process in the conditions of war using distance model of education. The issues of semantic content for English for Specific Purposes, selection of training material, and development of communicative component in the process of students’ mastering English language skills in the process of distance learning in the conditions of war are under consideration. Both theoretical and methodological aspects of mixed learning for mastering English for Specific Purposes and the Latin language, which are studied through combining the organic application of modern distance learning technologies, are covered. The main distance learning technologies using the MS Teams and Moodle platforms are characterized. The use of information technologies of mixed learning under wartime conditions at professionally targeted classes of English and Latin has been found to develop speech skills and abilities that make possible to express an opinion, develop thinking, as well as to have high motivational characteristics, taking into account the realities of today.

Application of forensic analysis methods in the field of investigation of recruitment of people for sexual slavery abroad

The article is dedicated to the analysis of the human trafficking problem, with a focus on sexual exploitation as one of the main forms of this crime. The author examines this issue from various aspects, particularly through the lens of statistical data, legislative norms, and investigative methods. Special attention is given to the situation in Ukraine, where human trafficking, exacerbated by the full-scale war with Russia, remains an extremely relevant and complex problem. Prior to the conflict, Ukraine ranked 49th among 167 countries in the prevalence of modern slavery. However, due to recent events, the scale and prevalence of this crime have significantly increased. Utilizing statistical data from the National Police of Ukraine, the article points out the high latency of this crime and the significant proportion of sexual exploitation among human trafficking cases. In the context of legal regulation, the author analyzes international and national normative acts that prohibit slavery and human exploitation. In particular, attention is drawn to Article 4 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the relevant articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The article describes how human trafficking is conducted both at the national and transnational levels, with an emphasis on the difficulties of detection and investigation of such crimes due to their hidden nature. It is noted that the investigation of such crimes requires the use of two methods of inquiry: information from witnesses and victims, which can be less effective, and data from operational-search activities, which provides maximum efficiency. For investigating offenses related to sexual exploitation abroad, criminal analysis methods are used, including the analysis of connections, events, departmental, and open-source information. The author emphasizes the importance of using innovative technologies, particularly artificial intelligence and multimodal models based on machine learning, for more effective detection and counteraction of the crime of human trafficking. It is underscored that such technologies can complement traditional investigative methods, providing the ability to better analyze collected information and identify potential victims and criminals. The author of the article calls for attention to and resolution of the human trafficking problem in Ukraine and emphasizes the necessity of adhering to international and internal norms to combat this crime.

Methods and techniques of architectural environment forming under the conditions of global climate change: the problems of flooding

This article highlights the methods and techniques of forming an architectural environment based on sustainable development, namely, how to adapt to the consequences of global climate change caused by the anthropogenic environment and its activities. One of the serious consequences of global climate change is an increase in the frequency and power of floods, especially they pose a danger to cities, where problems related to the comfort of human life are worsening. Floods destroy city infrastructure and endanger the city's water supply sources. Such natural disasters activate the scientific community to eliminate their consequences, on the one hand, on the other - to solve the shortage of water as an energy resource, raising the issue of developing technologies for accumulating its surplus and further use in many types of human life, as well as in the functioning systems of the city as a whole. The world scientific and practical experience of innovative methods of adaptation of the new and reconstruction of the existing architectural environment to climate changes in countries vulnerable to frequent flooding, which is a problem for Ukraine as well, is analyzed. The article analyzes methods from Denmark, Great Britain, the Netherlands and Pakistan, with which they create a flood-resistant architectural environment and turn the disadvantages of their flood-prone region of residence into advantages. The experience of these countries and their methods of combating natural disasters helps other regions of our planet to form a comfortable architectural environment that corresponds to today's rapidly changing weather conditions and the goals of sustainable development. The conducted analysis demonstrates a wide range of solutions to problems, from small elements of the architectural environment to the planning of individual districts and the city as a whole. These solutions are used individually, as well as in combination, which increases their effectiveness. Therefore, the use of a complex approach as the main method of forming the architectural environment under conditions of global climate change is revealed.

PROCESSING OF OLD SLUDGE DEPOSITS INTO COMPOSITE FUEL

An urgent problem in Ukraine is overcrowded sludge sites with outdated sludge deposits. Due to the food problem, the world needs to maximize the release of land areas that have been under technical use and reclaim them for agricultural land. Therefore, the processing of obsolete sludge deposits makes it possible to reuse land for activated sludge or for reclamation for other needs of the country. The paper sets the task of studying obsolete sludge deposits to create a technology for their processing. Due to the high ash content of old silt deposits, it was proposed to combine them with peat and biomass. This will reduce ash content by 1.5–2.0 times. Since the created composite granules and the sludge deposits themselves have a high moisture of 61–68 %, the drying kinetics was studied on a convective experimental stand to reduce it. The research results showed that composite granules have a drying time of 28–39 minutes to a moisture content of 6–7 %, which is 2.3–3.1 times faster than peat. The equilibrium moisture content of composite granules was determined to be 6–7 % and not exceeding the standard moisture content for fuel granules. The heat of combustion of obsolete sludge deposits, which is 11.8 MJ/kg, and the resulting composite granules based on them, was determined, which is quite high and, depending on the composition, is in the range of 13.4–15.5 MJ/kg. During the study of the combustion of a separate fraction of aged sludge deposits, it was found that the combustion process occurs in the upward convective flow of the oxidant behind the double boundary layer. It was determined that the combustion rate is independent of its size and is the same, but the mass affects the time of ignition. Further studies on the combustion of composite granules showed that the combustion rate of the granules is significantly lower than the combustion rate of the original biomass, but the combustion rate of a separate fraction of silt deposits prevails.

Рrogram of physical and sports rehabilitation of military servicemen after amputation of the lower extremities in the rehabilitation center

Loss of a limb as a result of combat trauma is one of the leading causes of amputation in most countries of the world. The relevance of this problem in Ukraine is connected with the beginning of military operations as a result of Russian aggression. The purpose of the article was to describe the features of the program of physical and sports rehabilitation of military personnel after amputation of the lower limbs in the rehabilitation center. Scientific publications on physical and sports rehabilitation of military personnel after amputation of the lower limbs in the rehabilitation center were analyzed. It is noted that the majority of amputees are recognized as disabled of the I and II groups, and only in the case of successful prosthetics and return to work, they are transferred to the III disability group. The principles, methods and tasks of physical and sports rehabilitation of military personnel after amputation of the lower limbs in the rehabilitation center are defined. In order to create a program of physical and sports rehabilitation of servicemen after amputation of the lower limbs in the rehabilitation center, we first defined its main tasks: increasing the level of physical performance and motor activity, developing strength and endurance, stimulating the processes of adaptation of functional systems to the new conditions of movement of servicemen. Special tasks were determined by evaluations of locomotion defects and required an individual methodical approach in each case. It is indicated that the program of physical and sports rehabilitation of military personnel after amputation of the lower limbs in the rehabilitation center was developed as a single cycle, and it included the following means of physical and sports rehabilitation: complexes of general strengthening and special physical exercises, dosed walking on a prosthesis, classes on simulators. These tools were complemented by independent classes, morning hygienic gymnastics, post-isometric relaxation, mobile and sports games, and psychological influence. A conclusion was made about the necessity of applying the proposed program of physical and sports rehabilitation of military personnel after amputation of the lower limbs in the rehabilitation center.

The impact of boxing on the physical health of young athletes at the initial training stage
