Diagnosis and Routing of Patients with Suspected Skin Cancer in Primary Care Settings: Gaps and Perspectives by T. A. Gaydina, A. S. Dvornikov, V. N. Larina, K. E. Nazimkin, P. A. Skripkina, A. A. Silin

“…However, in order to reduce the rates of high neglect for malignant skin tumors and optimize the routing of patients after visiting a primary care phisician, it is worth to pay attention to the following points: annual medical check-up examinations, especially among people of age is over than 40 years; a complete physical examination, including thorough history and full body skin examination by general practition as part of a clinical examination in a primary care settings; the use of mandatory dermoscopic examination by a dermatovenerologist for early diagnosis of skin cancer, and, if possible, dynamic skin mapping with artificial intelligence analysis; increasing the professional and communicative skills, especially needed in managing newly diagnosed skin cancer, since psychosocial factors influence the patient’s attitude towards his/her own health; maintaining continuity between general practitioners and dermatovenerologists to improve the quality of medical care; creation of “Healthy Skin” schools in clinics to increase the medical literacy of the population concerning the education regarding the danger of skin cancer, training in skin self-examination skills; using e-health technologies as an additional source of information.…”

Methodological approach to the quantitative assessment of risk caused by a collision between birds and aircraft by A. G. Guziy, A. P. Kostina

“…Solving the problem of quantifying the risk level contributes to increasing the assessment reliability due to the transition from a three-level risk ranking (“acceptable”, “tolerable”, “unacceptable”) to a twenty-five-level ranking and makes it possible to evaluate the effectiveness of corrective actions aimed at reducing risk by comparing the quantitively assessed level of residual risk with the original one; to optimize risk management according to the effectiveness criterion of corrective actions according to the criterion “increment in the risk level/cost”, to identify high-risk aerodromes in advance and plan unscheduled checks of ornithological aerodrome support; to develop and implement preventive corrective measures to improve ornithological support at high-risk aerodromes; to update periodically the recommendations to flight personnel in the event of a bird strike and a threat of collision (especially during takeoff and landing). …”
