TO THE ISSUE OF THE TASTE ANALYZER DURING SHORT-TERM ADAPTATION TO HIGH ALTITUDE

Kyrgyzstan is a mountainous country, a significant part of the territory is located in highlands (2500–3000 meters above sea level and higher). About 100 thousand people live in these conditions permanently. Socioeconomic changes of recent years have contributed to the strengthening of migration processes in the country both to highland conditions and in the opposite direction. In addition, industrial production is increasingly developing in highland areas, which contributes to an increase in the number of people permanently or temporarily residing there. Normal and pathological physiology of mountainous areas has been studied for decades. Scientists of various medical specialties have been and continue to study the problems of human life in the mountains, the peculiarities of the functioning of various systems of the body, and the course of diseases. The need for such research is relevant for the development of preventive and therapeutic measures. We have conducted a comprehensive study of the physiological and pathological states of the taste analyzer in mountainous conditions.
