“…Lomonosov spoke in favor of the necessity of ventilation of mines, fastening of mine workings, removal of mine waters, protective clothes for miners, etc. In 1841, Russia issued the first law on the work-norm setting – “Work regulations for cloth and ship factories [25]. ”…”

“…Dobroslavin (1842–1889), one of the founders of Russian hygiene, described the working conditions at tobacco factories, in mines, caissons, and a clinic of pneumoconiosis of various etiologies, lead and hydrogen sulfide poisoning [25]. His reasoning about the need to study all the factors of the labor process, which can affect the health and work capacity of a person, fully correspond to the scientific concepts of today.…”

A healthy workforce is vital for the sustainable social and economic development of any country. Assuring occupational health and safety (OHS) depends not only on the passing of quality working legislation and inspection of workplaces, but also on preparation of qualified specialists on OHS.Aimed at assessing of relevance of the content of training at Central Asian universities to the needs in prevention of risks of accidents and injuries and promotion of a preventive culture in the workplace, and finding out how they are compliant with the recommendations of the Mainstreaming occupational safety and health into the education (2010), we examined curricula of 20 medical and non-medical universities across Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.The analysis of training programs showed that education in OHS and preparation of qualified specialists in Central Asiana countries is up-to-date and tailored to local needs for prevention of risks of accidents and injuries and promotes the notion of a preventive culture in the workplace.

“…Working conditions and labor process that are typical for various categories and occupational groups in public healthcare are undoubtedly very significant when it comes down to health protection. A lot of medical workers are exposed to hazardous factors, notably, intense nervous and emotional strain, uncomfortable microclimate, adverse chemicals, biological agents, noise, ultrasound, laser exposure, ionizing radiation, and insufficient lighting at a workplace [8][9][10][11]. Medical workers are often simultaneously exposed to several adverse occupational factors, from 4 to 7, at their workplaces [12][13][14][15][16].…”

“…Medical workers' labor is hard due to necessity to lift and move patients, forced working postures, and long-term static loads that result in physical fatigue, circulatory disorders, elevated blood pressure, and occurring asthenia [7,8,15,16,21,25,37]. Physical fatigue is mentioned by 36.6-42.4 % of doctors and 54.6-61.7 % of nurses and paramedics.…”

The review focuses on analysis of domestic and foreign literature sources concentrating on influence exerted by occupa-tional factors and factors related to labor process on prevalence of diseases of the circulatory system (CSD) among medical workers. At present, specific features typical for occupational activities performed by medical workers are proven to be among major causes of high CSD prevalence among them. Experts have established most common occupational factors and labor-related factors that are able to induce and stimulate development of cardiovascular pathology. Labor intensity associated with neuro-emotional loads, high responsibility, round-the-clock working regime and night shifts (hazard category 3.2–3.3) is estab-lished to have a leading role among adverse labor-related factors for medical workers. Other significant contributions are made by adverse chemicals and biological agents, noise and ultrasound, laser exposure and ionizing radiation. Some authors showed that CSD prevalence was considerably higher among medical workers than among people employed in other industries. The highest CSD prevalence was detected among medical workers with the most adverse working conditions (hazard category 3.2–3.3). A high degree of occupational conditionality for CSD is typical for surgeons, therapists, and phthisiatricians. Emergency doctors run the highest risk of CSD (RR = 3.1; EF = 67.7 %). Assessment cardiovascular risks according to the SCORE system revealed that approximately 15 % medical workers older than 40 ran moderate cardiovascular risks; medical workers older than 50, high (20.0–22.0 %) or extremely high (10.0–12.5 %) total risks of death due to CSD.

“…Therefore, the medical and social significance of dementia and mild cognitive impairment is obvious [1]. Nootropic drugs that affect various brain biosynthetic and exchange processes and improve brain blood circulation and, eventually, intellectual capabilities, synaptic transmission between neurons, etc., are used in the clinic to treat and prevent cognitive-mnestic dysfunctions [2].…”
