To investigate the health status, physical development, and disease incidence among students attending higher education institutions in Ukraine.
Analyzed medical examination records of 3,737 university students aged 17–22 years from two universities between 2008 and 2019.
Surveyed 1,208 secondary school pupils regarding attendance patterns in physical education classes.
Evaluated self-assessments of health, disease etiology, and labor capacity reduction among 648 university students.
Between 24.0% and 30.8% of students had diseases and low physical development, with illness rates increasing over the course of university study.
Up to 35.5% of students presented with health disorders requiring assignment to a special medical group, and 1.7% were exempted from sports due to chronic diseases and disabilities.
Physical education and sports ranked 5th in personal life values for male students and 12th for female students.
