[Regional aspects of disability due to malignant neoplasms in the Russian Federation.]

The increase in the number of older people (elderly and senile) among the population around the world is associated with a significant impact on the increase in the incidence of malignant neoplasms (MN). The federal project «Fight against oncological diseases for 2018-2024» has been launched in Russia within the framework of the national project «Healthcare». The article presents the results of a study of the general disability (primary and repeated) of the adult population due to MN in the Chechen Republic (2010-2020). The main trends in the dynamics of general disability (age differentiation, severity, level) in the Chechen Republic and in the North Caucasus Federal District as a whole are compared. Older people with disabilities prevail in the structure of both primary and repeated disability due to MN in the Chechen Republic. This corresponds to the indicators for the North Caucasus Federal District and correspond to the data for the Russian Federation as a whole. The level of disability in the Chechen Republic is lower compared to the indicators for the North Caucasus Federal District. The proportion of disabled people with severe group II and group I disabilities is higher in the republic compared to extensive indicators for the district. The formed structure of disability and the identified trends in its dynamics are a scientific and practical basis that is advisable to use when developing an integrated approach to the medical and social rehabilitation of disabled people and the prevention of health disorders due to MN, taking into account the identified features of disability of the population in the territorial subject of the Russian Federation.
