Course content
The practical activity of a medical worker in the field of health care is based on a thorough knowledge of various etiological factors that cause pathological changes in the body and the development of chronic diseases. The course "Diseases of Civilization" forms ideas about the factors that provoke the development of chronic diseases in the World. It covers general ideas about diseases, their course, and distribution in the World. Without knowledge of etiology and social aspects, further study of clinical disciplines by future health care professionals is impossible.
