Authors: Traverse Michele , Singh Gurdeep , Krecic Carlo , Abrams Kira , Dodson Samira , Haykal Selena , Barry Stefanie , Mukka Santosh K
Published: October 2024

Background:

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists have gained popularity in recent years because of their well-established benefits of increased glycemic control, weight loss, cardiovascular protection, and renal protection, with minimal adverse effects, and low risk for hypoglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes. This study explored the effectiveness of the GLP-1 receptor agonist semaglutide and dulaglutide on body weight and hemoglobin A1c in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Methods:

In this retrospective cohort study, 244 patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and prescribed semaglutide or dulaglutide were identified through Lourdes Hospital electronic medical records. Over a 12-month period, in set intervals every 3 months, patients were assessed for changes in their hemoglobin A1c and body weight measured as a reduction in their body mass index (BMI). These primary outcomes were compared using linear mixed models from the lme4 package in R (v. 4.2.2).

Results:

Semaglutide and dulaglutide showed comparable effectiveness in reducing hemoglobin A1c compared with baseline. Both medications also led to a reduction in BMI. However, semaglutide showed statistically significant improvements in weight loss compared with dulaglutide at 3-6 months ( P = 0.01), 6-9 months ( P = 0.01), and 9-12 months ( P = 0.01).

Conclusions:

These findings suggest that in type 2 diabetes, semaglutide and dulaglutide show comparable effectiveness in reducing hemoglobin A1c. However, semaglutide was shown to be more effective in promoting weight loss. While these findings may be beneficial when treating patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity, treatment should be individualized to the patient, considering all factors before treatment choice.

MANAGEMENT OF EMERGENCY MEASURES PROJECT OF ALGIERS’S KASBAH
Authors: Madina Foukroun  , Said Madani
Published: October 2024

Management strategies for the conservation and safeguarding of cultural heritage in general, and urban heritage in particular, have evolved greatly over the past two decades. The relationship between heritage and development is now omnipresent in the policies of construction or reconstruction of territories, where the major challenges lie in their enhancement.
Algeria does not have a great deal of experience in the management and administration of heritage safeguarding and enhancement projects, whether urban or architectural, as evidenced by the significant number of projects that remain unfinished or incomplete due to a lack of efficiency.
Within the framework of the Permanent Plan for the Safeguarding and Enhancement of the Protected Historic District (PPSMVSS) for the protected historic city of Algiers, emergency projects have been launched to slow down or even stop the deterioration of this heritage site. The objective of this study is to understand the process of formalizing and managing projects in protected historic districts, as well as the interactions between the different stakeholders involved.The methodology used combines on-site surveys, interviews, and questionnaires with the various stakeholders. It refers to the conceptual model of project success factors developed by Pinto and Slevin, in order to evaluate these operations, which have not led to theexpected results.
INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORT AS A CONCEPTUAL PROVISIONS COMPONENT FOR THE CARGO FLOWS FORMATION OF MARITIME TRANSPORT IN UKRAINE
Authors: Labunets Iryna
Published: October 2024

. The article is devoted to updating the legal field of Ukraine, which regulates maritime transport, in accordance with EU standards and norms. The purpose of the study is to develop a proposal for institutional support for the realisation of the maritime transport potential in the security dimension in the post-war period. After analysing the legal framework governing maritime transport, 1086 documents were identified. Among them, there are 39 international Directives in force (for maritime transport) and 6 (for inland waterway transport). In addition, the unimplemented Directive 2015/757/EU "On the monitoring, reporting and verification of carbon dioxide emissions from maritime transport and amending Directive 2009/16/EC" was found. If this document is implemented into Ukrainian legislation, Ukraine's maritime transport will see positive changes in the direction of green logistics. And the author proposed to introduce amendments to the draft CMU Resolution "On Amendments to the Procedure for Providing Guarantees of Compensation for Damage Caused as a Result of the Armed Aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine and Military Actions on the Territory of Ukraine to Charterers, Operators and/or Owners of Seagoing Ships and Inland Navigation Vessels Flying the Flag of Ukraine and Flags of Foreign States".
It was proposed to pursue a course towards "green" logistics by implementing the necessary EU Directives into the legislative framework. Bringing Ukraine's regulatory framework in line with international EU standards, namely the documents governing maritime transport, will lead to an increase in trade and a higher level of security.
ALTERNATIVE WAYS TO MANAGE COOPERATION IN TAX RELATIONS: CHALLENGES OF DIGITALIZATION AND TAX COMPLIANCE
Authors: Puholovko Illia
Published: October 2024

The recent advancements in tax administration have witnessed a significant shift from traditional paper-based reporting to comprehensive digitalization of tax filing and analysis processes. The integration of information and communication technologies into tax relations, alongside the enhancement of tax systems through digital tools—such as electronic registration of tax invoices, electronic reporting, and electronic verification—has streamlined processes and improved tax compliance. However, it remains essential to investigate whether merely transitioning to electronic reporting suffices and to explore alternative management methods for interactions between businesses and regulatory authorities. This article aims to substantiate the patterns of change in tax relations due to the evolution of information technologies and to evaluate alternative options for ensuring the accuracy of tax reporting metrics, which could enhance tax compliance levels. Tax management, a subset of overall management, allows for the assessment and analysis of the impact of the tax environment on business operations amidst uncertainty. The challenges posed by the evolving tax landscape, including legislative volatility and subjective interpretations by regulatory bodies, necessitate a reevaluation of tax management practices. Furthermore, the increasing volume of data enables tax administrations to focus limited resources on addressing serious tax violations. This dynamic calls for a shift towards automation and digitization of accounting practices, paving the way for electronic audits. Despite the progress in electronic administration, the core criterion for tax compliance remains the submission of accurate tax reports and the fulfillment of tax obligations. The article discusses the OECD's recommendations for developing alternative cooperation frameworks between tax authorities and businesses, emphasizing the need for transparency and predictability in tax relations. In conclusion, successful transformation of tax relations between businesses and the state requires more than just electronic reporting; it necessitates a unified source of information for assessing tax risks and ensuring compliance. Ukraine is encouraged to adopt advanced practices for identifying tax risks and facilitating electronic tax audits, thereby enhancing the overall efficacy of tax administration

Reprint-Necrotizing Fasciitis: A Case Report and A Review of the Literature
Authors: Petracca Giovanni
Published: October 2024

Necrotizing fasciitis is a soft-tissue infection characterized by extensive necrosis of subcutaneous fat, neurovascular structures, and fascia. In general, fascial necrosis precedes muscle and skin involvement, hence its namesake. Initially, this uncommon and rapidly progressive disease process can present as a form of cellulitis or superficial abscess. However, the high morbidity and mortality rates associated with necrotizing fasciitis suggest a more serious, ominous condition. Diagnosis may be delayed because of the initial minimal skin cellulitis, even as the subcutaneous tissue suffers extensive necrosis and pronounced systemic toxicity develops. A delay in diagnosis can result in progressive advancement highlighted by widespread infection, multiple-organ involvement, and, ultimately, death. Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) might be useful in cases where signs are equivocal or diagnosis is in doubt. Computed tomography scans are estimated to have a sensitivity of 80% for detecting necrotizing soft tissue infections. We present a case of limb salvage in a 52-year-old patient with misunderstood type 2 diabetes mellitus and progressive fascial necrosis. A detailed review of the literature is presented, and current treatment modalities are described. Aggressive surgical debridement, comprehensive medical management of the sepsis and comorbidities, and timely closure of the resultant wound or wounds are essential for a successful outcome. Necrotizing fasciitis is a soft tissue infection characterized by extensive necrosis of subcutaneous fat, neurovascular structures and fascia. Background: the characteristic of this case was aggression and rapid extension. Case presentation: a 59-year-old woman was observed in a very serious condition, with fever and a large necrotic area that smelled of the right inguinal-femoral region in extension to the thigh. No history of illness. Obesity. Diagnosis may be delayed due to minimal initial cutaneous cellulite. A delay in diagnosis can lead to the progression of the disease shown by shock, multiple organ failure and, ultimately, death. Computed tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging could be useful in cases where the signs are equivocal or the diagnosis is in doubt. A detailed review of the literature is presented and the current treatment modalities are described. In this case, the aggressive surgical debridement, the complete medical management of sepsis and comorbidities and the timely closure of the wound by dermo-epidermal grafting were essential for a positive result. Conclusions: necrotizing fasciitis is an uncommon life-threatening soft tissue infection, which spreads rapidly and progressively along the deep fascia. The prognosis depends on accurate diagnosis and immediate treatment.

Cartografía feminista: una apuesta desde la epistemología de las emociones
Authors:   CONICET- CIFFyH, Bonavitta Paola
Published: October 2024

Desde una perspectiva ensayística, este trabajo aborda reflexiones sobre la cartografía feminista, su fuerza de acción, agencia y necesaria politicidad, así como su potencia metodológica. Como herramienta que no se originó en las ciencias sociales, pero que el feminismo ha apropiado para dar cuenta de múltiples violencias, así como para mapear la información que ha sido excluida de las políticas públicas, la cartografía feminista se ha derivado en su uso en los cuerpos de las mujeres y disidencias. Aquí se presentan algunas experiencias vividas a través del mapeo corporal en trabajos territoriales-extensionistas y en talleres áulicos propios en la ciudad de Córdoba, Argentina. Con ese afán, este texto no aborda resultados en sí, sino el recurso metodológico que implica el mapa en los cuerpos-territorios de las mujeres desde una epistemología centrada en las emociones.

Authors: Mwangi Caroline Gathoni , Otieno Dr.George , Paul Oyore Dr.John
Published: October 2024

An electronic medical record system (EMR) is a digital record of health-related data for individual patients, maintained by authorized providers. Complete and timely information is crucial for informing public health decisions and improving health service delivery, particularly for HIV/AIDS. This study assessed the utilization of EMR systems in HIV comprehensive care centers in Kiambu County, Kenya. Specifically, it examined the association and predictive influence of infrastructure, technical factors, and perceived usefulness on EMR utilization. The research adopted a descriptive cross-sectional design and applied stratified random sampling to categorize 38 health facilities based on their level of care. A sample size of 186 participants was proportionally allocated to the various strata, and data was collected through questionnaires. Analysis using SPSS version 25.0 involved Chi-square tests to examine associations between variables and logistic regression analysis to assess predictive influences. The results revealed that infrastructure (χ²=24.23, p<0.05), technical factors (χ²=62.93, p<0.05), and perceived usefulness (χ²=38.55, p<0.05) had significant associations with EMR utilization and had positive predictive influences. The study concluded that upscaling EMR utilization in HIV care clinics requires a multifaceted approach. It recommended that the County Government of Kiambu implement comprehensive training programs for EMR users, increase funding for EMR infrastructure, strengthen routine maintenance of ICT equipment, and engage ICT staff at the facility level to provide on-site support and troubleshoot the systems.

Published: October 2024

The results of experimental research of the dynamics of current sheets, which are formed in laboratory experiments at the IOF RAS, are presented as a brief review. It is shown that the most significant features of phenomena like solar flares can be reproduced in laboratory conditions. These features include the relatively slow accumulation of the magnetic energy in the course of the current sheet formation, the rapid release of the energy during the disruption of the current sheet, acceleration of plasma flows, ultrafast plasma heating, and effective particle’s acceleration. A qualitative similarity has been established between the basic characteristics of current sheets in the tail region of the Earth’s magnetosphere and in laboratory conditions. A comparison of a number of fundamental dimensionless parameters indicates the possibility of quantitative laboratory modeling of processes occurring in the magnetosphere. It is concluded that experimental research of the dynamics of current sheets and magnetic reconnection processes represent one of the promising areas of the laboratory astrophysics.
Filament Formation Mechanism for a Nanosecond Surface Barrier Discharge.
Part 2. The Local-Energy Approximation
Authors: Soloviev V. R. , Lisitsyn D. A. , Karavaeva N. I.
Published: October 2024

The development of a surface barrier discharge driven by a negative steplike voltage pulse with an amplitude of V = –8 kV in air at the atmospheric pressure and a pulse with an amplitude of V = –15 kV in nitrogen at a pressure of 6 atm is simulated numerically. Calculations for V = –8 kV were carried out using the local-electric-field and the local-electron-energy approximations. It is demonstrated that both approximations yield similar results on the dynamics of discharge development as a whole, the cathode-layer structure, and the field distribution at the front of the discharge. Substantial differences are observed in parameters of the discharge layer adjacent to the dielectric surface, which allowed to simulate an effect similar to filamentation of the discharge in nitrogen at a pressure of 6 atm and voltage of V = –15 kV in the local-energy approximation.

Realistická alternativa? Spor o Kurily
Authors: Štěpán Jan
Published: October 2024

Teoretický základ stati je zaměřen na kontrastující rozdíly uvnitř realistických teorií. Aby bylo možné definovat tezi studie, její autor se pokouší identifikovat nový realistický přístup, který se vyvinul v rámci Waltzova neorealismu. Základní rozdíl mezi neorealismem a teorií nazvanou postklasický realismus vidí v rozdílném chápání motivace jednání států na mezinárodní scéně. Jestliže Waltz říká, že státy jednají na základě pouhé existence moci, postklasický realismus tvrdí, že státy spíše zhodnotí pravděpodobnost ohrožení dříve, než podniknou další kroky. Základním cílem stati je posoudit, zda se nová neorealistická alternativa skutečně dostatečně liší ve svých závěrech, aby mohla vyvolat hlubší diskuzi uvnitř realismu. Autorovým záměrem v empirické části stati je dokázat postklasickou tezi, že velká pravděpodobnost hrozby je nezbytnou motivací pro jednání států. Své závěry autor vyvozuje z pečlivého zkoumání rusko-japonských vztahů a zejména kurilského konfliktu. Tento konflikt se mu zdál jako obzvláště vhodný objekt empirické analýzy z několika důvodů. Jde o dlouhodobý spor, jehož počátky můžeme najít již v 19. století. Japonsko i Rusko prošly za poslední století zcela bezprecedentním vývojem a několika změnami vládních ideologií, ale přesto se postoje k problému Kurilských ostrovů příliš nezměnily. A motivace jednání aktérů se zcela zákonitě měnily podle vývoje mezinárodněpolitické situace. Najít společného jmenovatele takovýchto motivací je tedy vhodnou výzvou pro teorii postklasického realismu. Na základě výsledků analýzy je postklasický realismus vnímán jako teorie flexibilnější než neorealismus, schopná vysvětlovat a předpovídat chování států. Cesta k hlubší diskuzi uvnitř realismu je tedy otevřena.
Úsilí o kontrolu zákazu biologických zbraní pokračuje
Authors: Středa Ladislav , Bajgar Jiří
Published: October 2024

Otázka zákazu biologických a toxinových zbraní se opět stala aktuální počátkem 90. let po skončení druhé války v Perském zálivu. I když v tomto konfliktu nebyly biologické zbraně použity, speciální inspekce OSN po skončení této války prokázaly, že se Irák nacházel v pokročilém stadiu vývoje biologických zbraní. Úmluva o zákazu vývoje, výroby a hromadění zásob bakteriologických (biologických) a toxinových zbraní a o jejich zničení byla podepsána již 10. dubna 1972 a v platnost vstoupila 26. března 1975. Přesto, že tato úmluva je v platnosti již více než čtvrt století, její nedokonalost nutí k dopracování mechanismů, které by v budoucnosti vyloučily riziko použití biologických zbraní. Z politických důvodů je považováno za neúnosné Úmluvu o zákazu vývoje, výroby a hromadění zásob bakteriologických (biologických) a toxinových zbraní a o jejich zničení změnit, anebo ji kolektivně zrušit. Proto bylo doporučeno vypracovat verifikační protokol k této úmluvě, který bude akceptovat současné výsledky vědy a techniky a současně odstraní její nedostatky. Úsilí o dopracování verifikačního protokolu pokračuje.

The art of nursing in clinical care
Authors:   Amherst College of Nursing, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Unit, Khastar Seyyedeh Mahdiyeh , Khastar Seyedeh Raziyeh ,   School of Built Environment, Massey University, Auckland, New Zealand
Published: October 2024

Nursing is an art. Becoming a nurse requires more preparation for care than becoming a painter or sculptor. This is because they work with a lifeless canvas or marble, while nursing deals with a living body, which is the dwelling of the divine spirit. Many experts consider the art of nursing a combination of scientific facts, awareness, and a simultaneous integration of nurses' knowledge and understanding [1]. Nursing is widely regarded as an art where the concepts of art and practice in care are interwoven [2]. In a broader sense, nursing is an art of clinical decision-making and reasoning [3]. The art of nursing involves understanding the meanings of patient interactions, establishing meaningful relationships, and skillfully performing nursing interventions [4]. The art of nursing is about the creative use of nursing knowledge in clinical skills [5]. Therefore, the art of nursing refers to the innovative and purposeful skills to convey emotions and concepts to others [6]. In nursing, art means understanding the concept of health and human interactions and using nursing experiences in clinical decision-making [1]. According to Wiedenbach, the art of nursing is the integration of nursing knowledge and theories in clinical skills [7], as all nursing theories emphasize that nursing is both the science and art of care [1].

Modern aircraft are usually statically unstable objects. Due to this, increased maneuverability and controllability is achieved. One of the promising directions is the development and implementation of UAVs of the bicopter or convertible type. Their movement is provided by two screw electric drives. The non-identity of the engine parameters and the peculiarities of the movement of UAVs of this type cause special requirements for the control systems. To ensure sustainability, modeling and conducting research with the help of various tools is necessary. The most available models of unstable movements are pendulum devices of various types, which allow studying stabilization processes. The purpose of the work is to use a computer stabilization system of a simplified bicopter UAV model by changing the thrust of the engines. The tasks of the work are: development of a computer stabilization system for the angle of pitch or roll, creation and verification of stabilization algorithms on a laboratory bench using an ARDUINO controller, research of the functional capabilities of angular stabilization circuits. The object of the study: a computer control system of an aircraft that performs the task of stabilizing a UAV. Subject of research: processes of stabilization of the angular position of a simplified bicopter model. When performing the work, a control law using angular and angular velocity feedback was chosen. A variant of aircraft stabilization when using engine thrust control is proposed. The control law of the computer stabilization system, which is implemented on the ARDUINO controller, was selected and tested. The applied value of the work is the further use of the obtained results in modern samples of bicopters.

The article discusses the possibility of modeling the stress-strain state (SSS) of the connection of the metal butt with the composite cylindrical part of the blade using the specialized ANSYS software application and its Composite PrepPost module. Created connection models in ANSYS environment. The optimal designs for connecting the metal butt and composite material have been determined. For a simplified calculation of the connection strength, only the influence of the centrifugal force arising during operation of the screw is taken into account. In the ANSYS software package, a static load of the connection was carried out, which makes it possible to evaluate the nature of the stress distribution in the connection. A butt model and a finite element connection mesh were created. For the calculation, the characteristics of the materials of the blade elements are given. To determine a rational structural-power connection scheme, varying parameters were selected: the number of rows of spikes along the radius, the number of spike belts and the arrangement of the butt spikes. The dependence of the voltage in the composite part of the connection on the arrangement of the butt spikes was obtained. The shape and length of the spike were analyzed. The dependence of voltage on the radius of curvature of the tenon was obtained. The stress-strain state of a tenon-rounded flange is shown in ANSYS. The dependences of voltage on the length of the spike were obtained. The calculation showed that the length of the tenon L has a significant effect on the strength characteristics of the connection between the flange and the composite layer. To determine the rational position of the stud, a calculation was carried out in the ANSYS environment with a shift of all rows of studs by the amount K from the extreme position in engagement with the composite layer and a change in the linear order of the studs to a staggered one. The results of the calculation in the ANSYS environment are presented as a dependence of stress on the displacement K. A flange model is presented, where the stud arrangement is staggered, and the result of the stress calculation in the ANSYS environment. The calculation showed that changing the order of the studs from linear to staggered reduces the maximum stress to 385 MPa. The hydraulic pressure tests confirmed the calculation results. The simulation results showed a significant improvement in the mechanical performance of the joints with minimal design costs.

The aircraft aerodynamic characteristics at supersonic flight modes can be determined with a high level of accuracy through testing the aircraft in wind tunnels or through time-consuming three-dimensional and analytical computational methods. However, in certain cases when the aircraft aerodynamic characteristics are already known within a given Mach number range for supersonic flight, it is possible to develop a relatively simple mathematical model for the aircraft aerodynamic characteristics at supersonic speeds using the aerodynamic properties of the supersonic wing leading edge for flight speeds Mf ≥ 1.2M. The object of the study is the aircraft aerodynamic characteristics at supersonic flight speeds. The subject of the study is the impact of the aircraft geometric features on the mathematical model, which is used to determine its aerodynamic characteristics in the supersonic flight speed range. The study hypothesizes that to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of an aircraft at Mf ≥ 1.2, it is sufficient to identify the values of the aircraft aerodynamic parameters at a flight speed of Mf =1.2 and then use aerodynamic analytical dependencies for the supersonic wing leading edge to determine these parameters at Mf ≥ 1.2. A mathematical model of the aircraft aerodynamic characteristics in the supersonic flight speed range was developed. Coefficients of drag polar and zero-lift drag for the reference mode Mf = 1.2 have been identified by the developed mathematical model. Then, the Mach number range for the aerodynamic characteristics of the NASA 1044 configuration has been extended to supersonic speeds of Mf = 1.8…4.0. The resultsof the aerodynamic calculations, obtained in the form of dependencies of the drag polar and zero-lift drag coefficients on Mach number, and the aircraft polar plot, have been compared with known NASA data for the 1044 configuration aircraft. The average modeling error of the aircraft aerodynamic characteristics in the supersonic speed range is less than 3%.

Настоящая работа возникла в результате размышлений, возникших в ходе занятий, преподаваемых в рамках дисциплины «Здоровье, общество и окружающая среда» в PPGEAA (Программа последипломного образования по антропным исследованиям в Амазонке), и направлена ​​на то, чтобы сформулировать взаимосвязь между этими концепциями на основе переплетения с тематическими предложение, вытекающее из студенческого исследовательского проекта, представленного в программе. С этой целью в данной статье представлено исследование космологии и местной мысли относительно того, как эти общества организуются, сосуществуют и воспринимают триаду здоровья, общества и окружающей среды. Тем не менее, необходимо понимать множество способов, которыми эти общества осуществляют свои социальные практики, основанные на их убеждениях, постоянно взаимосвязанных с элементами, присутствующими в природе. Методика, используемая в данной работе, состоит из библиографического исследования, основанного на отборе текстов, которые диалог с рассматриваемым тематическим предложением. Теоретическая основа данного исследования поддерживается работами авторов, которые акцентируют внимание на обсуждаемых концепциях или каким-то образом дополняют диалог данного исследования. Знания, верования и практики, распространяемые через традиции коренных народов, долгое время маргинализировались, игнорировались или воспринимались неправильно иностранным взглядом и этноцентрической проблемой в фигуре колонизатора. Таким образом, ожидается, что эта работа предоставит критическую, множественную и междисциплинарную интерпретацию, основанную на размышлениях о современной мысли коренных народов.

Сифилис — это инфекция, передающаяся половым путем (ИППП), которая во время беременности может вызывать выкидыши, пороки развития плода, слепоту, глухоту, умственную отсталость и/или смерть при рождении и считается важным инструментом оценки качества дородовой помощи. Целью этой статьи было очертить эпидемиологический профиль сифилиса у беременных женщин в штате Амапа, Амазония, Бразилия, в период с 2018 по 2022 год с использованием данных DATASUS. За период исследования у беременных женщин было зарегистрировано 2069 случаев сифилиса. В период с 2018 по 2019 год наблюдался рост числа заболевших с 282 до 364 случаев. В 2020 году, вероятно, из-за периода пандемии, произошло снижение числа диагнозов до 309. 2021 год стал годом наибольшего числа случаев, всего 594 записи, за ним следует 2022 год с 520. Большинство пациентов были коричневыми женщинами с полным начальным образованием в возрасте от 20 до 39 лет. Наиболее частой клинической классификацией был первичный сифилис, период с высокой вероятностью вертикальной передачи. Хотя большинство случаев было зарегистрировано в муниципалитете Макапа, столица штата оказалась единственной столицей Бразилии, где уровень выявления сифилиса у беременных женщин был ниже, чем в среднем по штату. Случаи были также зарегистрированы на островах Пара, таких как Афуа, Бревес и Чавес, вероятно, из-за близости этих муниципалитетов к медицинским справочным центрам, расположенным в муниципалитетах Амапы. В результате в Амапе зарегистрирован уровень выявления сифилиса у беременных женщин, составивший 36,24 в 2021 году и 34,52 случая на каждые 1000 живорождений в 2022 году, что считается четвертым по величине показателем в стране и вторым в северном регионе. С учетом полученных результатов подчеркивается необходимость стратегии профилактики среди восприимчивого населения, а также адекватной диагностики и лечения случаев сифилиса у беременных, позволяющих избежать заболеваемости врожденным сифилисом и другими осложнениями, особенно в сельской местности.
