Study object: retrospective assessment of clinical data on the state of the central and peripheral branches of endocrine system adult survivors irradiated as a result of the Chernobyl accident in the young or adolescent age (at the time of the accident) and their descendants. The average external radiation dose was 0.187 Gy for adults, and thyroid radiation dose was within 0.1-1.55 Gy in children. Verified clinical data were obtained during the examination of persons in outpatient or inpatient settings. Objective: to investigate the clinical and functional features of the course of non-malignant endocrine disease in the Chernobyl NPP accident consequences clean-up workers of a young age in comparison with those exposed to ionizing radiation in adolescence. Study methods: generally accepted clinical, anthropometric (body weight, height, thigh volume, body mass index), instrumental (thyroid and parathyroid ultrasound scan), laboratory (biochemical, hormonal) data, statistical. Results. State of the endocrine system was clarified in the young participants of the Chernobyl accident recovery works, the age features of non-malignant endocrine disease were determined. For the first time the condition of the parathyroid glands was assayed in the children and adults survived after the ChNPP accident. The incidece of carbohydrate metabolic disorders in the ChNPP clean-up workers irradiated at a young age in the 24 post-accidental years (1992-2015), including young and middle aged, demonstrates a probable increase in pre-diabetes / type 2 diabetes predominantly in the "iodine period" clean-up workers in 1986 (up to 16.05%), the "non-iodine" period of 1986-1987 (up to 15.08%) and 1988-1990 (up 11.11%). These data significantly exceed the type 2 diabetes incidence in the general population of Ukraine (3-9%; p ? 0.05). For the first time, an increase in the incidence of clinically significant parathyroid hyperplasia was found in the exposed adults as a result of the Chernobyl catastrophe and their descendants, especially those living in contaminated territories. The age feature of the young ChNPP clean-up workers is the relative incidence of type 2 diabetes, nodular goiter, hypothyroidism and osteopenic syndrome being significantly higher, and type 1 diabetes, diffuse goiter and thyrotoxicosis significantly lower in comparison with individuals exposed to ionizing radiation at the age of 10-17 years. For the first time, it has been shown that type 2 diabetes in the ChNPP accident clean-up workers exposed at a young age is characterized by severe disorders of carbohydrate metabolism along with multiple microvascular complications characterized by a significant increase in serum creatinine conteent and a decrease in glomerular filtration rate, indicating the early development of diabetic nephropathy. The age peculiarity of the descendants of irradiated persons is a period of puberty development, when 55.3% of neuroendocrine disorders of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid system are found. In the future that leads to hyperstimulation of peripheral endocrine organs. In the study of 25 (OH) D in serum, its low level (17.2 ± 3.26 nmol/L) has been found, indicating a lack of its consumption. Methodological approaches to the diagnosis and correction of detected endocrine disorders, taking into account the peculiarities of their course, are optimized, which can be used in the event of a radiation accident or threat, aimed at minimizing the effects of ionizing radiation on thyroid, pancreatic and parathyroid glands. There were published 86 scientific works, namely 1 monograph, 24 articles, 1 patent for utility model, 23 sections of monographs, 39 theses of conferences (of which 3 are abroad) were published. The scope of application is radiation medicine, clinical endocrinology.

Saving a scientific data set occurs in two stages:
1.) Creating a data set
Enter the name of the set, a brief description of the set (annotation), and click the “Create set” button. After that, a draft data set will be automatically created, which you can save for further work with the set. The system will redirect you to the “Data set information” page.
2.) Filling in the data
On the “Data set information” page, you need to fill in all the fields related to the data set and upload the files.
Please note! Each file is uploaded separately. This is done to ensure the stable operation of the system.
Once you have filled in the information about the scientific data set and added the necessary files, you can save the draft or send the data to the system.
Please note! Once the data has been sent, you cannot change it.
Drafts are necessary for storing the data set and editing it before sending.
All accounts on the NRA website go through a standard registration procedure and are verified. However, in order to obtain additional features, such as publishing open reviews of academic texts, verification by affiliation is required.
To obtain the status “verified”, you must change your primary email address to a corporate one, which is tied to a scientific or educational institution.
For example: user@ukrintei.ua, user@nas.gov.ua
After confirming your corporate email address, your account will be automatically verified by affiliation.
If your email address is corporate, but your account does not have a verification mark, you need to write to us at the email address NRAT@ukrintei.ua. After verification, we will add your address to the database, and your account will be verified.
After completing the verification procedure for affiliation, you can change the primary email address to a convenient one for you, without losing your status during the current verification.
You only need to verify for affiliation once.
* We use corporate addresses from the Unified State Database on Education and the State Register of Scientific Institutions Supported by the State
To search for news published on the official website of NRАT in the “News” section, you need to enter one word, several words, or an exact phrase in the search field. Different terms are separated by spaces.
The search is performed everywhere – in the title and the news text.
For a more comprehensive result, it is recommended to use word stems (parts of words without endings).
When using multiple words for the search, they are combined using one of the logical methods described below.
By default, the logical connector “and” is used. In this case, search results will include all news releases that contain the specified words, even if they are located separately from each other and are in different parts of the text.
Example: Search phrase: OECD report. Search result: all news containing the words “report” and “OECD” in the text and in the title, both together and separately.
If a phrase or phrase is enclosed in quotation marks (“), the results will include all publications where this exact phrase or phrase is found.
Example: Search phrase: “OECD report.” Search result: all news containing the exact phrase “OECD report.”
If you know the publication date of the news or are interested in a specific time frame in which they were published on the website, you can select such a date or date range in the additional field that looks like a calendar. The date is entered in the format year-month-day and confirmed by clicking on the corresponding date in the calendar dropdown. You can enter a date or choose one by browsing through the calendar by months and years. By default, the interval starts from the oldest date (2018-01-23) and ends with the current date.
You can also use one or more hashtags, which are located under the search field on the right side of the “News” page.
Please note: The search for academic texts is carried out in a separate search window at the following link https://nrat.ukrintei.ua/searchdb.
