Introduction: It is estimated that three million people die every year from air pollution, which indicates the importance of daily concentrations of substances that are deposited in ambient air as a consequence of stationary or mobile sources of pollution leading to the occurrence of non-specific respiratory disease. Aim: To show the health effects of air pollution in order to promote awareness of its reduction as a significant risk to the environment and human health. Review of pre-school and school age from non-specific respiratory diseases and reduction of the number of diseased children based on the performed monitoring of ambient air quality. Material and Methods: The data are obtained from the Annual Report prepared for the implementation of the National Annual Public Health Program for 2015 at the Public Health Center in Skopje, which monitors seasonal morbidity from non-specific respiratory diseases in pre-school (0-6) and school children (7-14), especially for town and village after the codes J00-J99 (non-specific respiratory diseases) with the exception of J10-J18 (influenza and pneumonia), the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) from the Annual reports that follow the quarterly air pollution and impact on human health for the period 2012-2016. Results: From the evaluation of the data, it can be concluded that the children from the village are less affected than the city, as well as the existence of a cyclic seasonal variation of morbidity. Conclusion: The assessment of the risk of hygienic air quality on the health of the exposed population in the case of pre-school and school children is done on the basis of the received data from the performed monitor, which points to a higher pollution rate in the city than in the village. It is necessary to monitor the air quality by monitoring the continuous measurement of the measuring points and taking a sample to determine the concentration of the air pollutant.

Introduction According to the Strategy for Tobacco Control in order to provide and improve health protection of the population of the Republic of Macedonia, and a number of international documents, basic strategic directions are that the health is the most important investment in the social and economic development of the community, and epidemic of smoking presents an increasing threat to people’s health. It is considered that there are 1.3 billion smokers worldwide, and current projections of the WHO show that this number will rise to 1.7 billion smokers by 2025, if the global prevention of tobacco use remains unchanged. Objectives The goal of this research is to determine the knowledge and views of the young people in the Republic of Macedonia concerning the use of tobacco, its influence on the social environment as a certain socio-pathological phenomenon or risk factor for certain diseases of the people. Materials and Methods The survey was conducted in the following municipalities in the Republic of Macedonia: Centar, Karpos, Gazi Baba, Kisela Voda, Cair, Aerodrom, Gorce Petrov and Butel in the city of Skopje, then municipalities Prilep, Kumanovo, Struga and Gostivar. Random sample. Target groups: young people at the age from 15 to 22. Research tools: a survey questionnaire no. 1. Subjects from sample were divided into 2 groups: subjects who smoked and those who did not smoke. Following statistical tests were applied: Pearson Chi-square, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA, Mann-Whitney, Spearmanov Rank Correlations, Pearson-ov koeficient na korelacija. Results Boys smoke significantly more than girls (X2= 13.3 df=1 p<0.0003). Among students smokers are significantly dominant (56.71%). Ethnic background of the young smokers/non-smokers corresponds with the population structure. Young people try their first cigarette at the age of 14-16 (r = .12744). Young people smoke everywhere (Dmax = 0.11 p>0.05). Young people smoke every day (86.59%). Young people usually smoke 5-10 cigarettes a day and they buy them at the news-stands. Young people in the R.M. rarely do sports (only 34.15%). Young people at the age of 15-20 usually smoke while they listen to music, while young people at the age of 21-22 usually smoke while they watch TV. More than half of the subjects think that the community they live in is a good place for living. Reasons for smoking are: habit, family problems, love problems, school, peer pressure, etc. There are no significant differences with regard to this question in municipalities. Conclusion In general, young people in Macedonia think that their peers who smoke are not well accepted by the community. Young people in Republic of Macedonia are well informed on smoking as a social-pathological phenomenon, and also that smoking is a risk factor for certain diseases.

Introduction: Diseases caused by unsafe food represent an important problem in public health, which is present even in the most developed countries. The diseases related to food and water, followed by diarrhea cause about 2 million deaths annually. It is estimated that 3% of food-related illnesses lead to long-term health consequences. Goal:The main objective of this paper is to identify the knowledge and attitudes of managers and food operators for foodborne diseases that are consequence from (not)implementation of the HACCP system in the companies. Materials and methods:A survey was conducted with a questionnaire. The area of the survey included seven municipalities where food facilities are most present in comparison other municipalities in the region of Skopje. The survey was conducted in year 2016. Target groups were managers and food operators. The survey was conducted in 36 food facilities. Results: The average age of the respondents who have completed training on basic knowledge of food safety was 34.8 ± 8.7 years. The age structure of managers and food operators significantly differed in terms of knowledge about diseases transmitted through food. Z = 2.1 p = 0.036. Managers and food operatorsin companies expressed positive opinions about the implementation of HACCP control system in their company. Fisher exact p = 0.3. There is a significant correlation of how internal control for food safety is implemented and the implementation of the personal hygiene control of staff. X2=33.4df=2 p<0.0001. Conclusions:According to our survey which was conducted with a random samplein Skopje municipalities, 197 respondents stated that in Macedoniafood safety is a topic of significant importance and that European regulations on food safety are implemented, together with introducing legislation and regulations as well asthe implementation of laws.
