Бойчук Т.М., Мойсей А.А. Участие сотрудников Черновицкого государственного медицинского института в ликвидации очагов зобной эндемии на территории Черновицкой области (1945-1949 гг.) Одной из важнейших задач XXI века. остается ликвидация йододефицитных заболеваний, которыми болеют около 30% населения планеты (по данным ВООЗ). Деятельность исследователей Черновицкого государственного медицинского института в течение 1940-1950-х гг. в деле ликвидации эпидемии эндемического зоба в Черновицкой области в условиях послевоенной разрухи, голода и антисанитарии имеет далеко не местный характер. Теоретические разработки наших ученых, тщательное изучение местной ситуации, схема практического решения проблемы в районах эпидемии требуют изучения и применения в более широких масштабах. Учитывая такую ситуацию, особенно актуальными являются исследования методов, путей и форм ликвидации зобной эндемии в отдельных регионах нашего государства: указанным вопросам и посвящена данная статья.

Participation of Chernivtsi state medical institute in the elimination of focal goitre endemic in the Chernivtsi region during the period 1945-1949 years. One of the biggest challenges of the 21st century is the elimination of iodine deficiency disorders which about 30% of the world's population suffers from (according to WHO). The scientists of Chernivtsi State Medical Institute provided activity in eradicating the epidemic of endemic goiter in Chernivtsi region during the 1940s-1950s in conditions of postwar devastation, hunger and poor sanitation. This experience could be globally used. Theoretical development made by our scientists, their careful study of the local situation, the scheme of a practical solution to the problem in the epidemic areas require further study and application on a wider scale. Given this situation article considers such issues that are particularly relevant to the research methods, ways and forms of elimination of endemic goiter in certain regions of our country. The problem of iodine deficiency was first considered at the state level in Ukraine in the 1940. At the time of the Soviet Union in Ukraine to regions of maximum risk of IDD traditionally according Lviv, Chernivtsi, Ivano-Frankivsk, Zakarpattia, Ternopil and Volyn regions. In order to prevent the disease in endemic areas was introduced a set of preventive and therapeutic measures. Despite the fact that in the 1960s -1980s endemic goiter problem was almost solved in the 1990s. Due to the weakening of attention to this important medical and social problems as well as man-made pollution by the antagonists of the iodine observed increase in the number of regions where fixed iodine deficiency endemic goiter and features. The increasing prevalence of thyroid pathology was also contributed to Chernobyl tragedy. A large amount of archival documents reveals to us the real view of goiter endemic liquidation in Chernivtsi region and the role of employees of Bukovinian state medical institute in that process. The active dissemination of goiter disease coincided with the establishment of the Chernivtsi State Medical Institute, which has been restoring facilities once in a while and worked to develop a clinical component and medical researches. Scientific research of BSMI scientists formed the basis of prevention methods and treatment of health edge, which has been contributed to the recognition of Chernivtsi Medical Institute around the world, this medical establishment became a research center in this field. The problem of endemic goiter was solved during the 1960-1980 period in Bukovina. Key words: Chernivtsi State Medical Institute, endemic, iodine deficiency, goiter, history of medicine.
