Some aspects of teaching medical informatics at medical universities

В статті розглядаються питання сучасного викладання медичної інформатики студентам медичних університетів. В роботі описано основну мету дисципліни, пропонуються шляхи вдосконалення її. Актуальність даної тематики підтверджує те, що наукові методи та інструментальні засоби все більш широко проникають в будь-які галузі життєдіяльності людини, і медицина не є виключенням, Саме це надає медичній інформатиці характер міждисциплінарної галузі, яка набуває все більш важливе загальнонаукове і загальноосвітнє значення. Розкрито важливе питання забезпечення формування у сучасного лікаря цілісного системного наукового світогляду на проблеми інформатизації охорони здоров'я. Дана стаття буде цікава викладачам закладів вищої медичної освіти.The article discusses the issues of up-to-date teaching medical informatics to students of medical universities. The paper describes the main goal of the discipline, suggests ways to improve it. The relevance of this topic lies in the fact that scientific methods and tools are increasingly penetrating into any branch of human life, and medicine is not an exception. That is why Medical Informatics belongs to interdisciplinary field, and acquires important scientific and educational value. Authors disclosed the important issue of the formation of a holistic and scientific worldview in modern doctors on the problems of health care informatization. This article would be interesting to teachers of higher educational institutions of a medical profile

ФакторниЙ аналіЗ виникненнЯ крИзИ В сімейниХ відносинах, щО сприяЄ розвиткУ дисциркуляторноЇ енцефалопатіЇ

We examined the application of factor analysis for studying risk factors of crisis development in family relations, which can lead to dyscirculatory encephalopathy. Data of the study make it possible to reveal at early stages the occurrence and development of discirculatory encephalopathy, which subsequently will help to reveal the development of cerebrovascular pathologies, which lead to invaliding and even mortality. Using a factor analysis, we obtained a mathematical model with the help of which it is possible to reveal emotional and cognitive disorders, which lead to the development of dyscirculatory encephalopathy in patients who live in the crisis-prone families. The factors that make it possible to determine the psycho-correction targets, which include personal qualities and the factors, conditionally related to the family crisis block, were revealed. The information feature space, used in the study, was decreased, which makes it possible to reduce the time for conducting a patient's examination. A mathematical model proposed is of practical interest and may be used for the diagnosis and prediction of development of cerebrovascular diseases. Results, obtained in present study, might be useful for neuropathists, psychiatrists and psychologists who work with the crisis-prone families, as well as for specialists in the field of mathematical modeling of the processes, which may be defined as "weakly formalized"

Image Processing Procedure for Remote Recording of the Gambusia SP. Introduced Into A Water for Anti-malaria

The object of research is the procedure for processing digital images for remote registration of Gambusia sp., introduced into water bodies to combat malaria, which threatens not only the African region, but also other latitudes of the world. One of the most problematic areas of research is the elimination of the masking effect of a biological object under conditions of interference (for example, water turbidity) that make it difficult to recognize Gambusia sp. on digital images taken from aboard light drones. In the course of the study, approaches were used that allow dividing a digital image into segments and sub-segments, followed by determining the ratio of the colorimetric parameters of the RGB model of the bottom section. Dispersion and correlation analysis of mean values and mean square deviation values of the RGB model parameters were used. The standard deviation was considered as the degree of diversity of colorimetric parameters in the color of a biological object. The proposed procedure made it possible to reveal a moderate negative correlation between the predominance of green and yellow-orange-red phytopigments in the dynamics of the Margalef model of phytocenosis succession in the places of introduction and habitation of Gambusia sp. This is due to the fact that the shielding of phytocenosis areas by Gambusia sp. is reflected in the nature of the relationship of the colorimetric parameters of the RGB model of the bottom area, namely, they affect the correlation between the average values of the parameters G/(R+G+B) and R/G or between the mean value and the standard deviation of the parameter G/(R+G+B). This makes it possible to use Gambusia sp. in regions affected by malaria, a wide range of light drones with remote photofixation of relatively low quality. The implementation of these possibilities will require much less material costs and a small number of personnel than underwater video filming and other known methods for studying the ichthyofauna of small water bodies in conditions of interference. It is about the registration of the results of the introduction of Gambusia sp. in such water bodies to fight malaria
