In recent decades, interest in the study of the content of fat-soluble antioxidant vitamins among residents of the northern territories of Russia has not weakened, which is associated with the transformation of the diet in a harsh climate, a negative ecological situation resulting from the technogenic pollution of the biosphere with various toxicants, and urbanization of the environment. In recent decades, interest in the study of fat-soluble antioxidant vitamins among residents of the northern territories of Russia has not weakened, which is due to the transformation of the diet in a harsh climate, a negative environmental situation that arose as a result of technogenic pollution of the biosphere with various toxicants. Аim. Conduct a comparative analysis of the content vitamins A, D, E in indigenous and alien populations, living on the territory of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. Material and methods. The study involved 185 males of working age (31.3 ± 12.2 years), permanently residing in the territory of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. The study participants were divided into 2 groups: the control group (97 representatives of the newcomer population) and the main group (88 people from the ethnic population: Nenets, Khanty). In all examined individuals, vitamins A and E were determined in the blood by the fluorometric method, and the concentration of hydroxyvitamin D – 25 (OH) D3 was determined using the chemiluminescent method. Results. In the course of a comparative analysis of the content of the studied vitamins in the blood, it was found that the average values of vitamin A in the newcomer population were in the range of optimal values, while the provision with vitamins D and E was 1.4 and 1.1 times lower than the minimum. permissible physiological values, respectively. The opposite picture was observed in the aboriginal population, who had a pronounced deficiency of only vitamin A. Conclusion. The results obtained indicate the presence of intergroup features in the content of fat-soluble vitamins in the body of the population of the Far North, which requires a corresponding correction of the diet and the development of a set of preventive measures aimed at improving the ecology of the environment.

The article examines the development of the agro-industrial complex in Russia from the point of view of the foreign trade aspect, the production aspect and the consumer aspect. By means of comparative analysis and calculation of differentiation coefficients, the degree of difference in the development of the regional agro-industrial complex in conditions of sanctions pressure is characterized. Tracking the dynamics of changes in the studied indicators made it possible to identify the positive impact of sanctions, which for most regions is expressed in a real decrease in dependence on imports of agricultural products due to a consistently implemented import substitution strategy, as well as their negative consequences, which are manifested, in particular, at the consumption level.

Aim. To study the peculiar features of hemogram indices and biochemical indices of blood in children with different vitamin provision. Materials and methods. Vitamin A, C, D, E, B6 and B12 content in blood was determined in 188 children (aged 5–6 years) of pre-school educational institutions (PEI), who attended PEI for not less than 3 years and had a standard C-vitaminised diet. Results. The study of a season provision with vitamins A, C, D, E, B6 and B12 showed that 75–85 % of children have a whole-year deficit of vitamins, characterized as polyhypovitaminosis in 40 %. Comparative analysis of blood hematological and biochemical indices in children with different vitamin provision was carried out. Conclusions. Among children with insufficient vitamin provision there was noted more stressed state of hemopoietic erythrocytic blast and decreased proliferative activity of lymphomonocytic blast against the background of higher activity of allergic-type cell responses; lower level of protein, carbohydrate, mineral and energetic metabolism is observed in children with insufficient vitamin provision.
