Granted, "Topicality of the subject" gets 5x more Google hits. However, "Current importance of the topic" is understandable to a wider audience. Moreover, "topicality" carries the connotation of "current popularity" and "trendiness" as distinct from "current importance" in the sense of solemn significance and urgency. Thus "topicality" is more likely to cause the reader to pause unnecessarily.

global prevalence
I'd reword with an eye towards what's meant and use something like "global prevalence," as there are many terms that sound similar to the Russian, but that mean something entirely different (ex: statistical significance, clinical significance, clinical relevance, etc).
