Opis:: Introduction and objective. Using the concepts of Ulrich’s theory of supportive design and Malkin’s healing environment, an eye tracking experiment was designed in order to measure respondents’ reactions while looking at visualisations of various interiors, with the aim of verifying whether certain parameters of an interior are related to emotional reactions in terms of positive stimulation, and the sense of security and comfort. Materials and method. 12 boards were designed, incorporating standard features of an interior, i.e. (1) proportions, (2) lighting, (3) colour scheme of a room, as well as (4) the colours and spatial arrangement of furnishings. Respondents’ reactions were recorded with an eye tracker Tobii TX300 and supplemented by self-descriptions of emotional reactions. Results. The results showed that the varying spatial and colour arrangements presented in the interior visualisations provoked different emotional responses, confirmed by pupil reaction parameters, as measured by the eye tracking device. Conclusions. Architectural space can have a diverse emotional significance and impact on an individual’s emotional state. This is an important conclusion from the point of view of optimising and creating the so-called supportive and healing environment. The results have implications for the interpretation of the pupil diameter as an index of emotional reactions to different architectural space visualisations. Testing the eye tracker as a method helpful in diagnosing the emotional reactions to features of the interior is justified, and can provide an effective tool for early diagnosis of the impact of architectural space on the well-being of individuals. It can also be a good form of testing the emotional significance of architectural designs before they are implemented.

Opis:: Gorączka Q (febris Q, coxiellosis) jest występującą globalnie chorobą ludzi i wielu gatunków zwierząt. Wywołuje ją, namnażająca się wewnątrzkomórkowo, bakteria Coxiella burnetii (rząd Legionellales), wytwarzająca spory – wyjątkowo wytrzymałe na działanie czynników fi zyko-chemicznych. W Polsce, jako choroba ludzi, znana jest od 1956 roku, zaś najczęstszym źródłem zakażenia dla ludzi są: zakażone bydło i owce oraz skażone środowisko bytowania tych zwierząt. Wycinkowo jedynie rozpoznana epidemiologicznie i sporadycznie diagnozowana u ludzi, występuje niewątpliwie na terenie całego kraju. Ofi cjalnie zgłaszane przypadki u ludzi, odzwierciedlają (według szacunku jednego z nas, jedynie około 1% przypadków klinicznych u ludzi w Polsce). Motywem przedstawionych poniżej badań, były 3 ogniska epizootyczno-epidemiczne, które pojawiły się latem i wczesną jesienią 2008 roku, na pograniczu województw lubelskiego i podkarpackiego, zrazu u krów mlecznych i wtórnie, u ludzi z grup narażenia zawodowego. W pracy przedstawiono wstępne wyniki badań w kierunku gorączki Q u osób zawodowo narażonych. Przebadano serologicznie grupę 135 osób. W celu wykazania obecności przeciwciał IgG zastosowano metodę immunofl uorescencji pośredniej (IFA) w fazie I i II oraz metodę odczynu wiązania dopełniacza (OWD) w fazie II. Przedstawione wyniki traktujemy jako wstępne, zaś badania kontynuujemy wespół z Laboratorium Diagnostyki Serologicznej Państwowego Instytutu Weterynaryjnego – Państwowego Instytutu Badawczego w Puławach, której kierownikiem jest dr wet. Krzysztof Niemczuk, uczestnik wspólnego Grantu, oraz z oddziałami obserwacyjno-zakaźnymi w Biłgoraju i Dębicy i Narodowym Instytutem Zdrowia Publicznego-Państwowym Zakładem Higieny

Opis:: Introduction and objective. The timings of Fraxinus and Betula flowering and pollen release overlap, which may cause increased allergic reactions in sensitive people. The aim of the present study was to characterize Fraxinus pollen seasons in Lublin (central-eastern Poland) and to identify meteorological factors that most determine the occurrence of airborne pollen of this taxon, as well as obtain forecast models for the basic characteristics of the pollen season. Materials and method. The study was conducted in Lublin during the period 2001–2016, employing the volumetric method. The seasons were compared by PCA (Principal Component Analysis). To determine relationships between meteorological conditions and the pattern of pollen seasons, regression analysis was used. Data for the period 2001–2015 were used to create forecast models by applying regression analysis, while the 2016 data served to verify these models. Results. Season end date and seasonal peak date were characterized by the lowest variation. The biggest differences were found for peak value and total annual pollen sum. The average dates of occurrence of ash pollen grains in the air of Lublin were between 13 April 13 – 3 May 3, whereas, on average, the pollen peak date occurred on 23 April. The factor loading values for the PC1 variable indicate that it is most strongly correlated with peak value and total pollen sum, while the PC2 variable correlated with the pollen season start date and season duration (a negative correlation). Regression models were developed for the following pollen season characteristics: season start, end and duration, seasonal peak date, and total annual pollen sum. Conclusions. The fit of the forecast models was at the level of 62–94%. Analysis of the data showed that weather conditions mainly in February were important factors controlling the Fraxinus pollen season.

Opis:: Introduction. To assess the across-shift changes of cytokine concentrations in nasal lavage (NAL) samples were collected from workers exposed to bacterial cell wall components present in organic dust in three different occupational environments. Materials and method. The study was conducted in 38 employees including 10 workers from a municipal waste sorting plant (WSP), 20 from a sewage treatment plant (STP) and 8 from an office building (OB), who were established as a reference group, not exposed to organic dust. Interleukins 1β (IL-1β), 6 (IL-6), 8 (IL-8) and tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) were examined in NAL before and after work shift on Wednesdays. Bioaerosol exposure was determined by personal measurements and analysed for organic dust, endotoxins (END) and peptidoglycans (PGN). Results. The analysis included the results for IL-8 only, because for the other cytokines their concentrations in 80% of cases were below the detection level. The most polluted were the workplaces in WSP with average concentrations of organic dust – 3.47 mg/m3, END – 96.31 ng/m3 and PGN – 571.88 ng/m3. The results of IL-8 showed a significant difference between the studied groups after the work shift (p=0.007). Among WSP workers concentrations of IL-8 increased also significantly (p=0.015) during the work shift. Multivariate analysis showed that organic dust and END were the factors that in the most distinct way (p<0.001) influenced changes of IL-8 levels in NAL. Conclusions. Each alteration in the composition of bioaerosols will probably determine the changes in the mechanisms responsible for both formation and modulation of inflammatory reactions in exposed workers.

Opis:: Introduction: Moulds are the one of the known biological factors that have a negative impact on human health. Moulds are commonly present in residential and work environments. Materials plentiful in organic compounds, such as building materials or paints, are a splendid substrate for the development of moulds. The first documented mention of a study describing the harmful effects caused by moulds in buildings emerged in the early nineteenth century. In Copenhagen and then in Padua, moulds of the genus Penicillium, Cladosporium and Mucor were found in buildings. Objective: To present the current state of the allergic properties and other negative health effects caused by moulds isolated from buildings. Brief description of the state of knowledge: The literature and own research clearly shows that moulds and their secondary metabolites can evoke toxic effects on human and animal health, and cause symptoms similar to allergic diseases. These allergens have been noted in spores as well as other fungal fragments; however, most allergens are located in germinating spores, in the hyphal tips and in mycelia. Fungal allergy can express in different ways: asthma, rhinitis, conjunctivitis, urticaria and atopic dermatitis. Fungal allergy antigen is bound to IgE-dependent reactions but also to reactions independent of IgE. Conclusions: Moulds are a significant but difficult to detect etiologic agent of different allergic diseases. Prevention of this diseases is important for patients with suspected connection between common allergic symptoms and affinity with moulds.
