“…NBS is carried out at the expense of budgetary allocations of the Regions of the Russian Federation and is free to the public [ 977 ]. A 2017 review of the past, present, and future of pediatrics in Russia helps to better understand national pediatric healthcare issues [ 978 ]. In preparation for the expansion, three SCID-related studies were published: two reviews of TREC and KREC screening, including the potential role of NGS in increasing the diagnostic accuracy of PIDS in general [ 979 , 980 ]; and determination of the 95% confidence intervals for TREC and KREC levels for different gestational groups with the suggestion that gestational age is an important factor that affects both TREC and KREC levels in newborns [ 981 ].…”

Newborn bloodspot screening (NBS) began in the early 1960s based on the work of Dr. Robert “Bob” Guthrie in Buffalo, NY, USA. His development of a screening test for phenylketonuria on blood absorbed onto a special filter paper and transported to a remote testing laboratory began it all. Expansion of NBS to large numbers of asymptomatic congenital conditions flourishes in many settings while it has not yet been realized in others. The need for NBS as an efficient and effective public health prevention strategy that contributes to lowered morbidity and mortality wherever it is sustained is well known in the medical field but not necessarily by political policy makers. Acknowledging the value of national NBS reports published in 2007, the authors collaborated to create a worldwide NBS update in 2015. In a continuing attempt to review the progress of NBS globally, and to move towards a more harmonized and equitable screening system, we have updated our 2015 report with information available at the beginning of 2024. Reports on sub-Saharan Africa and the Caribbean, missing in 2015, have been included. Tables popular in the previous report have been updated with an eye towards harmonized comparisons. To emphasize areas needing attention globally, we have used regional tables containing similar listings of conditions screened, numbers of screening laboratories, and time at which specimen collection is recommended. Discussions are limited to bloodspot screening.

“…Another example is the already mentioned Moldavian ‘Neovita’ project supported by Unicef, which has contributed to tangible improvements in the quality of health service provision for adolescents 22. Finally, in some countries such as Russia, school health services are developing programmes to cover the health needs of pupils 23. By providing specific training of school health professionals as well as educating pupils and school staff in the area of health, (including how to respond to emergencies), these programmes improve direct and equal access to healthcare for all pupils.…”
