The article presents a brief description and characteristic ideas of three important styles in Russian and Soviet architecture (Eclecticism, Art Nouveau, and Avant-Garde). Based on this description, we develop a thesis that the period under consideration was deeply marked by a continuous development of the idea of functionality and by the dialectics of form and function.

The number of patients with severe forms of demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy and respiratory failure is constantly increasing. The current state of health care system and funding of medical services do not allow full compensation of the costs for provision of care for those with this disorder. Goal of the article: the specific clinical case is used to raise the awareness of the need for taking system decisions to provide treatment for the patients requiring continuous respiratory support. Legal regulations and approaches to payment for medical services are to be changed, special centers able to accumulate such patients are to be organized, care at home is to be provided. Число пациентов с тяжелыми формами демиелинизирующей полирадикулонейропатии и дыхательной недостаточностью неуклонно возрастает. Текущее состояние системы здравоохранения и финансирования медицинских услуг не позволяет в полной мере компенсировать затраты на оказание помощи больным с данной патологией. Цель работы: на примере конкретного случая привлечь внимание к необходимости принятия системных решений для организации лечения пациентов, нуждающихся в длительной респираторной поддержке. Требуются изменение законодательной базы, подходов к оплате медицинских услуг, создание специальных центров, способных аккумулировать таких пациентов, организация медицинской помощи в домашних условиях.
