Abstract. Factors of disadaptation of pilots after combat stress are analyzed as one of the main factors in the development of post-traumatic stress disorder. It was found that the effects of combat stress have a great impact on young, thin pilots, with a predominance of the parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system and a reduced basic metabolism of the body. The data obtained allow for early diagnosis and identification of functional disorders in pilots for their medical and psychological rehabilitation. The use of the proposed discriminant function can be divided into adapted and unadapted (differently processing traumatic experience), for the development of appropriate rehabilitation programs within their medical and psychological rehabilitation. The revealed decrease in the reserve capabilities of the Central nervous system and the adaptive capabilities of the body of pilots subsequently leads to a decrease in the reliability of the professional activity of the pilot with an increase in its physiological price. In terms of methodology, understanding the postponement of the negative impact of combat stress factors on the pilots body requires constant measures for early detection and correction of emerging functional disorders. The consequences of combat stress are considered as an integral reaction of the body to the complex impact of various factors of combat stress, which is manifested at the psychophysiological and somatic levels and leads to early disqualification of pilots for medical reasons.

The article presents a study of traumatic experiences by high-class athletes (members of the Russian national teams). Data on the subjective sensations of athletes who have suffered from injury of the musculoskeletal system are obtained, patterns in the perception of the consequences of an injury event are revealed. Also we present data on the attitude of athletes to injury in the aspect of professional activity. The analyzed information is an important component in the development of personalized programs for the prevention of reinjury in elite sports.Objective: to assess the psychoemotional experiences of sports trauma by elite athletes in the process of rehabilitation treatment after the musculoskeletal system injury.Materials and methods: a specially developed medical and psychological interview was conducted with athletes-members of the sports national Russian Federation teams, who are inpatient treatment in the sports traumatology department, in order to obtain primary subjective information from the athlete about his presentation of his own experiences of a traumatic episode. Further, the information obtained from the interviews was analyzed and grouped for further evaluation.Results: we state the significant influence exerted by the previous traumatic experience on the future life and professional activity of an athlete. Moreover, the influence can be both negative (fear, anxiety, kinesiophobia, uncertainty in sports-specific movements) and positive (acquired skills of coping with traumatic experiences, gaining new knowledge about one’s physical and psychological capabilities).Conclusions: thus, despite the diversity of individual reactions of athletes to injury, different life situations, sports and traumatic events, it is possible to identify general patterns in the perception of elite athletes of the injury itself, as well as the entire process of recovery and return to sports. This information is very important both for minimizing the negative impact of a sports injury on the psychological recovery of an athlete by switching his attention to identifying the “positive” consequences of the injury, and for the prevention of repeated injuries in elite sports.

Menstrual Rhythm

Menstrual rhythm disorders and symptoms associated with the menstrual cycle are one of the main reasons for women to make an appointment with a gynecologist. After the endocrinopathies and organic substrates of menstrual irregularities are excluded, the doctor is faced with the difficult task to treat conditions that reflect the functional dysfunction of the body and its adaptation to high stress load. It is beyond argument that hormone therapy is the main resource of a gynecologist, but it is not always acceptable and does not solve all the problems of normalizing psychoneuroendocrine status. The dependence of functional disorders on environmental stress factors allows a doctor to use lifestyle correction, including rational nutrition and adding various micronutrients, in a program to improve the quality of life, eliminate psychoemotional symptoms and symptoms of autonomic dysfunction. In turn, the restoration of the adaptive reserve of the body becomes key to the recovery of menstrual function.

Basic Facts

Glucocorticoids (GCs) play a major role in orchestrating the complex physiological and behavioral reactions essential for the maintenance of homeostasis. These compounds enable the organism to prepare for, respond to, and cope with the acute demands of physical and emotional stressors and enable a faster recovery with passage of the threat. A timely and an appropriate GC release commensurate with stressor severity enables the body to properly contain stress responses so as to promote recovery by rapidly restoring homeostasis. Inadequate GC release following stress not only delays recovery by disrupting biological homeostasis but can also interfere with the processing or interpretation of stressful information that results in long-term disruptions in memory integration. A salient example of such an impaired post-traumatic process is post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The findings from recent animal models and translational and clinical neuroendocrine studies summarized in this chapter provide insights shedding light on the apparently contradictory studies of the HPA-axis response to stress. Also included is a review of the basic facts about PTSD and biological data.

The article provides a comprehensive description of information technologies of digital adaptive medicine. The emphasis is on the applicability to the development of specialized automated complexes, software models and systems for studying the adaptive capabilities of a person to environmental conditions. Requirements for information technologies to enhance these capabilities are formulated. The features of information technologies are reflected in relation to the implementation of applied systemic studies of life support, preservation of professional health and prolongation of human longevity. Six basic concepts of adaptive medicine with an emphasis on the features of the mathematical support for information processing are characterized, priorities for improving information technologies used in these concepts are determined. The information technologies used in the tasks of ensuring the professional performance of a person with an emphasis on the need to use adequate methods for diagnosing the state of a person at all stages of professional activity and the need to develop technologies for digital twins that adequately simulate the adaptation processes and reactions of the body in real conditions are considered. The characteristics of information technologies for personalized monitoring of health risks are given, which make it possible to objectify the effects of physical factors of the conditions of activity and to implement individual and collective informing of personnel about environmental hazards. The urgent need to standardize information processing methods in the development of information technologies for digital adaptive medicine in the interests of ensuring physiological adequacy and mathematical correctness of approaches to obtaining and processing information about a person's state is shown. It is concluded that the priorities for improving information technologies of digital adaptive medicine are associated with the implementation of the achievements of the fourth industrial revolution, including the concept of sociocyberphysical systems.

The cardiovascular system is actively involved in the adaptive reactions of the body. The deterioration of adaptive processes decreases the functional capabilities of the heart. Arterial hypertension is often known as the main cause of fatal cardiovascular events in adults. The aim of our study was to determine the adaptive capabilities of the cardiovascular system of adolescents with non-inflammatory cardiomyopathies depending on physical activity’s level. There were examined 92 patients with arterial hypertension and connective tissue dysplasia, the mean age was 15,4 ± 1,33 years. In order to study tolerance to the minimum physical activity and its influence on the state of the cardiovascular system in children, the Ruffier test was conducted. The vegetative reactions of central nervous system were performed by the orthostatic test. The functional state of the myocardium was assessed according to the results of the ultrasonic Doppler study of the heart. As a result of the study, it was found that in connective tissue dysplasia and arterial hypertension adaptation mechanisms were affected, accompanied by a weakening of cardiac functional capabilities. This happens against the background of a decrease in the functioning of the left ventricle. These changes are accompanied by hyperactivation of the autonomic nervous system in patients in the studied groups. The physical activity and physical development of children affect the adaptive capabilities of a growing organism. This is due to the fact that the children in group with AH and CTD were less physically active than children without myocardial pathology. Adolescents who showed the reduced results of Ruffier's test and had regular sports sections need change of a mode of training and further inspection.

Introduction. Age-related changes in the cardiovascular system lead to a decrease in its reserve adaptive capabilities and an increase in the likelihood of developing diseases under stress and overstrain. A number of experiments have proven the significant role of emotional overstrain and stress in the development of cardiovascular diseases. The high incidence of the circulatory system, the long course and severity of diseases in elderly and old people determine the relevance of the search for treatment using effective and safe drugs. Aim: iinvestigate the effect of a combination of ATP-LONG and molsidomine on the functional state of the myocardium of young and old rats under chronic soft stress. Materials and methods. In experiments on young (10 months) and old (24 months) male Wistar rats, the cardiotropic and cardioprotective activity of the combination of the metabolic cardioprotector ATP-LONG and the vasodilator molsidomine was studied under conditions of chronic soft stress. Results. The negative impact of chronic soft stress on the bioelectrical activity of the myocardium – a violation of the processes of repolarization, conduction and contractility of the heart was found in young rats. The combination of ATP-LONG and molsidomine normalized the bioelectrical activity of the myocardium and increased its resistance to stress factors. In old rats under the influence of chronic stress, signs of impaired repolarization and electrical instability of the heart were more significant than in young animals. The combination ATP-LONG and molsidomine prevented the damaging effect of chronic stress and contributed to the normalization of the electrophysiological parameters of the myocardium of old rats. Conclusions. The results of experiments indicate the pharmacological cardiotropic activity of the combination of ATPLONG and molsidomine in young and old rats with chronic soft stress. Keywords: young rats, old rats, chronic soft stress, myocardium, electrocardiogram, bioelectrical activity of the heart, ATP-LONG, molsidomine, cardioprotective effect.

The Brain

The human brain is a very powerful tool. It allows us to see, remember, understand, and learn. With new technologies being discovered every day, scientists are able to discover how people acquire, process, and store information. New technologies such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRIs) allow scientist understand how the brain reacts to a particular stimulus or how brain structure can affect a person’s health and personality. The brain and nervous system works hand-in-hand and coexist in order to function everyday life. The study of the function and structure of the nervous system is neuroanatomy. These nerves work together to receive and send messages from the central nervous system to the rest of the body. The messages travels almost instantly to any part of the body within seconds. Brain communication and function correlates to the ability to do work with information. This includes cognitive thinking and behavior. The cognition aspect of the brain involves the intellect and learning ability of the brain. On the other hand, the behavior aspect of the brain involves the emotional ability of the brain. The cognitive and behavioral aspects are not just singled out to humans with normal, operable abilities. These aspects stretch as far as aging in dogs, people who suffer with depression and cannot cope with proper thinking, people who have suffered from traumatic brain injuries, and those who suffer with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Fattening Pigs

In recent decades, the intensity of the use of pigs has increased significantly. In such conditions, the body of animals is used almost to the limit of its capabilities. In this regard, the administration of many physiological functions is disrupted, the morbidity and decrease in the performance of pigs significantly increase. The increase in the level of drug use does not solve these issues. For example, the uncontrolled use of antibiotics can lead to even more significant problems - the development of antibiotic resistance. Despite this, in modern pig breeding, considerable attention is paid to the development and implementation of methods for the prevention of diseases in pigs. An important component of such activities is to ensure optimal conditions for the comfort and well-being of animals. This, in turn, implies a reduction in the negative impact of stress factors in raising and fattening pigs. The aim of our research was to get acquainted with modern literature data on the features of the influence of stressors on productivity and physiological functions of pigs. During the writing of this review article, we reviewed data from current research on the effects of stressors on the productivity and physiological functions of pigs in rearing and fattening. For this purpose, the funds of the scientific library of Bila Tserkva National Agrarian University, scientific research systems Science-Direct and PubMed were used. An important task of veterinary service of modern pig breeding complexes is to ensure optimal parameters of the microclimate, feeding quality feed, reducing the negative impact of stress factors. Ensuring proper housing conditions contributes to the improvement of qualitative and quantitative indicators of pig productivity (at slaughter, during slaughter, etc.). In this regard, we believe that a promising area of research is to study the effects of certain stressors and their combinations on the body of pigs and find methods to correct them.

The Individual

The perspective of the “petals” of personal health have never disappeared from the field of view of psychological science and practice. In modern stressful situations of being, it is the emotional component of health which is actualized through an increase of the emotional pressure on all aspects of life of a person. This is especially true for the period of early adulthood, when stressors that have age-related origin are also added to the urgent challenges of our time. Defining the structural-component elements of the phenomenon, that is of the emotional health of students, which does not make it possible to determine its scientific and practical foundations. This negatively affects the students' ability of selfknowledge, self-preservation, self-renewal and self-enrichment of their own emotional health, and the development of a positively active attitude towards the indicated personality feature. As a result of the analytical work, based on the scientific research foundation of the problem, a number of assumptions, which directed the research position, concerning meaningful content of the concept “emotional health”, regulatory and adaptive functions and the self-value of emotional health regarding students in the “individual-subject-personality - individuality” has been detailed. On this background, the author’s position, regarding the interpretation of the basic concept, structural identity, component constitution and measurements of the emotional health of an individual in early adulthood, has been justified. This involves an internally determined phenomenon, which, under appropriate conditions of educational and professional activity, can be transformed into an object of cognition, evaluation, and restoration by an individual. The expediency in the emotional health of a student to distinguish axiological, cognitive-affective, constant-instrumental and social-empathic components, which are caused by internal and external factors has been proved. The above mentioned statement expands scientific ideas about the emotional health of modern students, actualizing the need for practice-oriented activities in the current conditions of the notable negative impact of stress factors combination.
