Руководство предназначено для оказания помощи правительствам стран, в которых наблюдаются низкие уровни потребления контролируемых веществ, в исчислении их потр...ебностей, с тем чтобы они могли затем представлять МККН исчисления и оценки, достоверно отражающие эти потребности. Руководство могло бы также быть полезным для правительств тех стран, в которых уровни потребления некоторых веществ несоразмерно высоки. Надеюсь, что настоящее Руководство будет широко использоваться национальными компетентными органами и в конечном счете поможет им в подготовке исчислений и оценок, отражающих их фактические потребности в контролируемых на международном уровне веществах.

Cascading risks from rising prices and supply disruptions, April 2022.
Global resource markets are still reeling from the impacts of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine; the two countries are major suppliers of energy, food and fertilizers. Supply disruption and the sudden imposition, in response to the... crisis, of unprecedented economic sanctions, trade restrictions and policy interventions have caused prices of commodities to skyrocket.
Before the conflict, demand for global resources already exceeded supply and drove up prices as economies rebounded after the COVID-19 pandemic. This gave rise to a global cost-of-living crisis, characterized by increasing levels of energy and food poverty. This situation is likely to become much worse as a consequence of the war in Ukraine, and poses a threat to human security, particularly among low-income and vulnerable populations.

Mycetoma is a chronic infectious disease of the subcutaneous tissue with a high morbidity. This disease has been reported from countries between 30°N and 15°S since 1840 but the exact burden of disease is not known. It is currently unknown what the incidence, prevalence and the number of reported ...cases per year per country is. In order to estimate what the global burden of mycetoma is, a meta-analysis was performed. In total 50 studies were included, which resulted in a total of 8763 mycetoma cases.
