title: [Medical and social aspects of dermatoses morbidity in military personnel serving in a region of the Far North].
abstract: Analysed the possibility of dermatosis as an adaptive health disorder in military personnel serving in a region of the Far North. 127 men took part in this research; the average age is 19,5+/-0,7 years. 89 patients with atopic dermatitis and 38 patients with psoriasis were examined and proceeded with the treatment. 50 healthy servicemen were in the experimental group. Each patient filled out a questionnaire for evaluation of anamnesis, contributory causes, social and psychological status. It is revealed that seamen break out in atopic dermatitis and psoriasis in first 2 months of service; flare-up was observed in autumn. Climate and geographic peculiarities of the region affect the course of skin disorders. The draft and first months of service are the main stressful factors affecting dysadaptation disorders. It is necessary to study preclinical sociopsychological factors in conscripts and compulsory-duty servicemen and to provide modern psychological prophylaxis.
