Determining the survival rate of the population and the order of its extinction is one of the main tasks of social and hygienic examination, the sanitary characteristics of a particular region of a particular population group. Without these data, it is difficult to get a correct idea of ​​the sanitary state of the study area. On the other hand, the study of the problem of experiencing is a rather difficult task and requires the use of complex methods. The essence of the method is to compare the numbers of the distribution by age of the deceased with the numbers of the distribution by age of the living and to obtain the probability of survival to the next age period. The probability of survival obtained in this way makes it possible to calculate the order of extinction of a non-existent (hypothetical) generation with age-related mortality equal to the force of mortality for the period of time for which the census took place.

The observations of a number of researchers on the immunization of various species of animals and the vaccination of humans with antigens of plant and animal origin and their metabolic products unquestionably confirm the fact that the formation and growth of antibodies occurs the better and easier the more natural antibodies are available in relation to the injected

Articular processes developing on the basis of endocrine functional disorders in the clinic go under different names: endocrine arthritis, arthrosis, arthropathies. Periarthritis endocrinica destruens, Arthritis genuina sicca usurosa, Arthritis ovaripfiva, and Ostheoarthropathia thyreopriva. Of all these names from the pathogenetic and patho-anatomical points of view, the most satisfactory is the name proposed by Umber — Periarthritis endocrinica destruens.

Over the past several years, the Therapeutic Department of the All-Ukrainian State Institute of Pathology and Occupational Hygiene has set itself the task of studying the functional abilities of various organs, and it had over 4,000 people as an object of examination. In this article, we present the results of studying the functional capacity of the kidneys in some groups of workers.

There is a large number of studies on echinococcal disease, but nevertheless, looking through modern works written on this topic, one can come to the conclusion that the question of the diagnosis and treatment of echinococcus has not yet been finally resolved.

From this point of view, those studies that are aimed at finding out the intimate biological relationship of the skin with various systems of internal organs and to establish the ways in which the influence of metabolic disorders should be transmitted to the skin are of particular importance.
