How to read this table
Year-on-year comparisons help assess the scale of medical screenings and the trends in hearing loss detection. The rows present both absolute values in thousands and relative values in percentages, allowing for a comparison of children with impairments against the total number screened. The data shows the relationship between the total number of examinations and the proportion of children requiring further medical attention
What is visible in these numbers
Highest values: Total number of children examined — total, thousand people (29,920), with visual acuity reduction — thousand people (1,788), with posture disorders — thousand people (1,779). The gap between the highest and lowest is 149,602 times. The top three account for 96.5% of the total across all items — the distribution is heavily skewed toward the top
Observations are annual, with a set of 18 observation periods. There are 198 values in the table out of 198 possible, which is 100% — almost no empty cells remain

Period and application
The data is based on Ministry of Health of Russia records and Rosstat calculations. The information covers a thirty-five-year period and is presented in annual terms. The statistics will be useful for medical professionals, demographers, and pediatric healthcare specialists analyzing children's health status and the effectiveness of preventive programs
How it is calculated
Disease incidence is used to assess the size of the market for drugs and services in a specific region
Table notes: From 2016 onwards, data for the presented time series are unavailable due to changes in the methodology of the Ministry of Health of Russia
1) С 2016 года данные по представленному динамическому ряду отсутствуют в связи с изменением методологии Минздрава России.
