<p><strong>The aim</strong> of the work wos to develop an algorithm and determine the patterns of the individual dynamics of the competitive performance of qualified basketball players.</p><p><strong>Material and methods.</strong> The study involved the players of the main composition of the men's basketball team of Ukraine. It was analyzed 12 games of the national team of Ukraine in games with equal rivals - teams of other countries. The research was conducted from June 2018 to September 2018. Technical logging of games, which was carried out using a modified formula of Yu.M. Portnov. Mathematical modeling was used to describe the patterns of individual dynamics of competitive performance using sinusoidal regression models.</p><p><strong>Results</strong>. The process of changing competitive performance should be considered in terms of oscillatory processes. The most acceptable function to describe this pattern is the sinusoidal function. The regression model of the individual dynamics of the effectiveness of competitive activity of the players of the Ukrainian basketball national team obeys a sinusoidal relationship, which is described by the sinusoidal regression equation.</p><strong>Conclusions.</strong> The data obtained may be useful for predicting the individual game performance of athletes, determining the individual characteristics of players and adjusting training programs

<p>The purpose of the research is to develop and substantiate a comprehensive methodology for endurance development of middle school students by means of cycling tourism. Material and methods. This study was attended by cyclists 12-13 years of Lipkutaisha general education school l-lll degrees (9 athletes were experimental group, 9 - control). To determine the functional capabilities of middle school students, the following tests and tests were used: Harvard step-test, Stange test, Genci test, Serkin test. The method of endurance development, which involves the use of a complex of cycling routes, is developed. The complex consists of 2 parts: a complex distance "trials and figured bicycle driving" and a cycling path. The trials represent a distance of 100-200 m in length with natural and artificial obstacles (steep slope, yar, sandy, marsh and other difficult traffic areas, streams, puddles, trunks of trees lying, etc.) along a narrow corridor (up to 1.5 m) , formed by natural and artificial restrictions (ribbons between trees or racks, etc.). Figured bicycle driving involves the use of the following obstacles: "Shaft", "Snake between the stands", "Corridor", "Koliya", "Circle", "Eight", "Gate", "Ring", "Transfer of the object", "Zigzag" , "Swing", "Snake between chips", "Stop-line. Finish". The peculiarity of the campaign is that, in a separate development of endurance, he solved the problem of educational and enlightenment by familiarizing with interesting places of Slobozhanshchyna, meetings with interesting people, and others like that. Results It is shown that the author's method of complex endurance, combining the means of figurehead and cycling, is more effective in comparison with the traditional method of endurance development of middle school students, which contains exclusively the overcoming of distances; It was found that the use of a complex method of endurance development for middle school students contributes to increasing the respiratory detention time for Shtange, Gench, Serkina, as well as reduction of heart rate, heart rate after standard loading and improving the quality of rehabilitation. Conclusion. The developed method can be used in the preparation of young cyclists.</p>

The medical faculty at Novorossiysk University in Odessa (nowadays - Odessa National Medical University) was established in 1900. The aim of the review is to outline the impact of medical scientists from Kazan University on forming the lecturing staff of the medical faculty in Odessa. The article reviews previously published and newly discovered source data. The first head of the department of diagnostic medicine and propaedeutics of the medical faculty was Sergey Vasilyevich Levashov, professor of Kazan University. He took up the position of professor at the department of internal medicine of the teaching hospital of Kazan University in June of 1886. In January of 1903, he was transferred to Novorossiysk University, which was a solid addition for the new faculty. Professor Leontiy Ivanovich Uskov followed professor Levashov on his way from Kazan to Odessa. In 1889 he graduated from gymnasium in Tambov, in 1894 - from medical faculty of Kazan State University magna cum laude, worked as a military doctor, since 1900 - as an ordinary resident of professor Levashov at the department of internal medicine of the teaching hospital of Kazan University. In 1903, Professor Nikolay Mikhaylovich Popov (in 1894-1903 - professor of the department of mental diseases at Kazan University) also transferred to Odessa. Professor Popov was the founder and the first head of the department of neurology and mental diseases in Odessa. Alexey Erastovich Yanishevsky, who was the student of Professor N.M. Popov in Kazan, followed him to Odessa. Another student of Professor Popov, Vladimir Nikolaevich Obraztsov, who graduated from medical faculty of Kazan University in 1898 and was recommended by Professor Popov for extraordinary residency at the department of mental diseases at Kazan University a year after, transferred to Odessa in 1904. Another alumnus of Kazan University, Bronislav Ivanovich Vorotynsky, was teaching at Novorossiysk University. In 1901 he left the position of extraordinary assistant professor of the department of mental diseases at Kazan University after being appointed as a head doctor of the Odessa city mental hospital; since 1905 he was a freelance university lecturer of the department of neurology and mental diseases at Novorossiysk University. Therefore, the lecturing staff of one of the country’s oldest medical schools contributed to establishing the new site of higher medical education in Russia.
