This paper applies an interdisciplinary approach for proper names analysis using linguistic, folklore and culture data. Proper names (personal and geographical) reveal lingual and cultural information adding specific meaning to mythological and folklore texts. This statement is illustrated by examples of different peoples: Anglo-Saxons, Siberian and American natives. Common features of proper names will be explained by their universal function.
Purpose of the study. Revealing the features of the formation of damage to the structure of the chest and abdominal organs in pedestrians during their collisions with moving cars. Materials and methods. A forensic medical examination of 215 corpses of persons killed in collisions with moving cars was carried out. Among the dead there were 173 men and 42 women. The victims were between 14 and 75 years old. Research results and their discussion. It was found that among pedestrians who died in collisions with cars, injuries of two or more parts of the body with fractures of the limb bones (55.8%) and сombined injury (CI) of the head, chest, abdomen (23.3%) prevail. In the composition of CI, damage to the structure of the chest and organs of the chest cavity was noted in 85.6% of cases. Rib fractures were detected in 57.7% of cases; fractures in the midclavicular and axillary lines predominated in localization. Damage to the structure of organs and tissues of the abdominal cavity in the composition of the abdominal CI in pedestrians was -71.0%. At the same time, 80.8% of the dead pedestrians show signs of injury to organs and tissues with pronounced hemorrhages in the suspension apparatuses, walls and parenchyma of organs. In 23.2% of cases, along with hemorrhages, there is a violation of the anatomical integrity of organs, mainly the liver and spleen. The outlined nature of damage to the structure of the chest, organs of the chest and abdominal cavity made it possible to establish the possibility of their formation in the 3rd phase of car injury - the fall of the injured on the road surface. Traumatic (pleuropulmonary), hemorrhagic shock and hemorrhagic pneumothorax were the main causes of injuries at the prehospital stage.
Aim. To analyze the incidence of central serous chorioretinopathy among the Kazans population between 2009 and 2018.
Methods. A descriptive epidemiological study of the incidence of Central serous chorioretinopathy of the population of Kazan between 2009 and 2018 was conducted. It included an analysis of long-term changes in the incidence of male and female population and an assessment of the structure of morbidity by sex for the entire period and in dynamics. Testing for differences was performed using the nonparametric MannWhitney U test and Chi-square test with Yates correction.
Results. 831 new cases of central serous chorioretinopathy were registered in Kazan during 20092018, the ratio of men and women was approximately 1:1. In the dynamics of morbidity, the proportion of men increased from 24.2% in 2009 to 60.7% in 2018 (р=0.000002), while the proportion of women decreased from 75.8% in 2009 to 39.3% in 2018 (р=0.000002). The long-term dynamics for 20092018 is characterized by a statistically significant increase in the incidence rate of central serous chorioretinopathy in men (p=0.004) from 3.2 per 100 000 in 2009 to 14.8 per 100 000 in 2018. During the study period, the incidence rate in women remains at the same level, varying from 5.4 per 100 000 to 8 per 100 000 (p=0.663). Men are more likely to have central serous chorioretinopathy at a younger age (р=0.0001). The median age at the time of diagnosis in women was 55 years (Q25Q75 4565 years), in men 45 years (Q25Q75 3756 years).
Conclusion. From 2009 to 2018, the incidence rate of central serous chorioretinopathy among men in Kazan significantly increased in both intensive (p=0.004) and extensive indicators (p=0.000002); сentral serous chorioretinopathy in men develops at an earlier age compared with women (median age of women at the time of diagnosis was 55 years, median age of men 45 years, p=0.0001).
