ABSTRACT
The authors present their experience gained in the training of ophthalmologists at the Chair of Ocular Diseases of the Krasnoyarsk Medical Institute. In 1991 the interns, instead of traditional state examinations, maintained their diploma research, which was assessed as their skills and knowledge in the field of ocular diseases, social hygiene, and public health organization. The authors prove that such diploma research is an integral part of undergraduate training and one of the types of individual work at higher educational institutions, and enumerate the topics of diploma research.

Based on the findings of a 20-year follow-up, the authors analyze the incidence of opisthorchiasis in one of the regions of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, the Chulym River region. They analyze the time course of the major parameters, i.e. incidence rate, absolute and relative increment of this value and the significance of a 1% increment as exemplified by this region. They emphasize that a complex of sanitary and hygienic measures should be implemented to control and prevent opisthorchiasis in this region.
