| Sumario: | <p id="p1">In our work, for the first time, the problem of long-term exposure (more than 50 years) to low doses of radiation to the human body was touched upon. Comprehensive studies of the content of radionuclides in water, soil, meat of cattle, and small cattle, carried out within the framework of the ISTC; prove the entry of radionuclides into the human body through food chains. For the period from 2003 to 2023, studies were conducted on the skin of people living in various regions of Kyrgyzstan. A total of 3650 people were examined. The main group (600 people) is represented by people living near uranium tailings. Analysis of the features of the course and manifestation of dermatoses showed the features of the course of skin pathology. The mean age of stigma manifestation was 32.7 ± 7.5 years compared to the control group 45.2 ± 10.3 years.</p> |
