Morbidity of university and pedagogical institute students in Yoshkar-Ola

Abstract

During 1974-1976 and 1983-1986 we studied the state of health of university students in Yoshkar-Ola. For each period the health characteristics of 4440 students were presented, separately by faculties and courses, and the structure of diseases was traced.
According to our observations, during 1983-1986 there was some increase in general morbidity of students of both universities. According to the analysis of morbidity, students most often sought medical assistance for colds (acute respiratory infections-42.7%), ENT-organ diseases (pharyngitis, maxillary sinusitis, angina-11.2%), injuries (sprains, strains, bruises of the upper and lower extremities-12%), gastrointestinal diseases (gastroduodenitis, duodenal ulcer, cholecystitis, biliary and intestinal dyskinesia - 4.6%), less often - due to cardiovascular (hypertension, neuro-circulatory dystonia) and pulmonary (bronchitis, chronic pneumonia -3.6%) diseases. Dental diseases were represented by dental caries, typical for students of both universities.
