The aim of this review article is to systematize and analyze modern innovative methods for the differential diagnosis of cervicalgia. Cervicalgia, or neck pain, is a common pathology often associated with degenerative-dystrophic changes in the cervical spine. In recent years, new diagnostic methods such as ultrasound elastography, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), molecular diagnostics, diffusionweighted MRI, postural analysis, as well as virtual and augmented reality technologies have emerged. These innovative methods allow for a more precise and objective assessment of the condition of the cervical spine, the identification of early signs of pathological changes, and the differential diagnosis of neck pain. Advanced technologies such as magnetic resonance spectroscopy and optical coherence tomography are also considered. Special attention is paid to the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning for the analysis of medical images. This article discusses the advantages and prospects of these innovative approaches, as well as their impact on improving the quality of medical care and enhancing patients' quality of life. 

Electromagnetic fields exposure from physiotherapy equipment can be human health risk factor, therefore their adequate hygienic assessments are necessity. Studies of the physiotherapy equipment showed an excess of Russian hygiene norms more than 5 times. Electromagnetic condition adequate hygienic assessment requires accounting of combined EMF exposure of various frequencies and generation modes, personal exposure monitoring and biological studies. 

Currently, the health of schoolchildren is one of the most important issues of Public Health, the state. The intensity of the educational process, the high workload, the complete non-compliance of the educational environment with hygienic requirements are among the main factors affecting the incidence of students. This article discusses hygienic factors in the school environment and measures to prevent them, which may affect the health of students associated with the organization of the educational process in general education organizations in Astana. 

The relationship between atmospheric air pollution, meteorological factors, and morbidity rates in Zhitikara during 2021–2025 was assessed. A retrospective analysis of environmental monitoring and public health statistics was conducted. Strong positive correlations were identified between overall morbidity and concentrations of PM_2,5, PM₁₀, and SO₂. The findings suggest a possible influence of environmental factors on population health and emphasize the importance of air quality improvement measures.

Occupational cancer remains one of the most important challenges in occupational health and public health. This review summarizes current evidence on the global burden of occupational malignancies, major workplace carcinogens, occupational respiratory cancer and international registration systems. Particular attention is paid to mining workers and the under-recognition of occupational cancer in Kazakhstan. The article discusses criteria for establishing occupational causality, latency periods, oxidetive stress, immune disturbances and molecular biomarkers. The need for a national occupational cancer registry and risk-based surveillance of workers exposed to occupational carcinogens is substantiated.
