Comparative Study[The need for human health protection from climate changes].
The occurring climate changes have a considerable impact on human health. The higher frequency of different natural disasters, including flood and typhoons, deteriorates the epidemiological situation. ⋯ The specific features of the impact of climate warming on human health in the northern and southern regions of the country are considered. The need for developing the National Plan of Actions to prevent the population's health from climate changes is warranted.

[Hygienic assessment of priority physical factors of the urban dwelling environment].
A complex of chemical, physical, and biological factors of varying intensity influences man under the dwelling environmental conditions. Modern man spends as high as 80-90% of the day time under the conditions of the closed spaces of the urbanized habitat and is constantly exposed to physical factors. The present environmental hygiene monitoring system requires great attention to the control of priority physical factors in the environment. By using a number of examples, the authors give criteria for determining the priority of factors of physical nature and an objective assessment of their importance in the formation of the safe dwelling environment.
