Opis:
Background: Pet therapy could help individuals improve their emotions; and physical and mental health. It also could be effective in the treatment of pain, anxiety, depression, and fatigue. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of pet therapy, concurrent with common medication on positive, negative, cognitive and motor symptoms of schizophrenia. Methods: This was a randomized control trial. Statistical population of the current study included all patients who were admitted to the Razi Psychiatric Center of Tehran and received a diagnosis of schizophrenia based on a clinical interview and DSM criteria by a psychiatrist. Thirty six patients were recruited using snowball sampling. Members of the experimental group were transported by a bus to that spot at 9 a.m on the planned days, in the company of the researcher and a nurse. Patients gave care of the rabbits (including feeding, tidying their cages, moving their cages) for 24 sessions of 90 minutes, three days per week during autumn 2016. The One-way covariance test was also used to evaluate effects of Pet therapy on positive, negative, cognitive and motor symptoms of schizophrenia. Results: finding indicated that considering scores of pre-test for positive, negative and cognitive symptoms, there is a significant difference between the two controls and experimental groups, respectively, (F = 17.04, p < 0.05), (F = 17.39, p < 0.05), (F = 152.12, p < 0.05). Conclusion: Pet therapy could be successfully applied by parents, psychologists and care givers of these patients. We suggest using pet therapy for treatment of other psychiatric disorders as well and preferably like dogs and cats.

Opis:
The aim of this paper was to present how mental symptoms are connected to the use of desktop, portable or minicomputers (communicators and hand-held computers), mobile phones, and background information such as age and gender in the Finnish working-age population. The study was carried out as a cross-sectional study by posting a questionnaire to 15 000 working-age (18–65) Finns. The mental symptoms of 6 121 respondents were analysed using the model factors age, gender, the use of computers and the use of mobile phones. In all data, the use of desktop computers was related to mental symptoms. However, the results of our data are not highly reliable, because the nonresponse rate was over 50%. Nevertheless, it may be essential to take into account in the future that working with computers can increase workers’ mental symptoms, and it is important to observe their mental health.

Opis:
The aim of the current study was to determine the relationship between the intensity of symptoms of attention deficit, impulsiveness/hyperactivity, and oppositional or rebellious behaviours among school-age children and the practices undertaken by their parents. The participants were 103 mothers and 69 fathers. They were the parents of 108 children aged between 8–11 years old. In the study the questionnaires were used, among others the Polish version of The Alabama Parenting Questionnaire. The results point to a relationship between the intensity of oppositional or rebellious behaviours and more frequent negative practices implemented by mothers and also less frequent positive parental activities. Among the fathers’ group no such strong trends occurred, although fathers were more likely to use an incoherent discipline and a corporal punishment when the intensity of oppositional or rebellious behaviours of their children increased. Also, a relationship between an incoherent discipline and a weak control performed by mothers, with a higher intensity of attention deficit and impulsiveness/hyperactivity among their children emerged. No such relationship emerged among fathers. In accordance with the previous research, the current results suggest a stronger relationship between the actions taken by parents with the intensity of the oppositional or rebellious behaviours than with the intensity of attention deficit and impulsiveness/hyperactivity symptoms of children.

Opis:
Objectives Gold miners use mercury to extract gold from ore adding liquid mercury to the milled gold-containing ore. This results in a mercury-gold compound, called amalgam. Miners smelt this amalgam to obtain gold, vaporizing it and finally inhaling the toxic mercury fumes. The objective was to merge and analyze data from different projects, to identify typical signs and symptoms of chronic inorganic mercury exposure. Material and Methods Miners and community members from various artisanal small-scale gold mining areas had been examined (Philippines, Mongolia, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Indonesia). Data of several health assessments were pooled. Urine, blood and hair samples were analyzed for mercury (N = 1252). Questionnaires, standardized medical examinations and neuropsychological tests were used. Participants were grouped into: Controls (N = 209), living in an exposed area (N = 408), working with mercury as panners (N = 181), working with mercury as amalgam burners (N = 454). Chi2 test, linear trend test, Mann-Whitney test, Kruskal-Wallis test, correlation coefficient, Spearman’s rho, and analysis of variance tests were used. An algorithm was used to define participants with chronic mercury intoxication. Results Mean mercury concentrations in all exposed subgroups were elevated and above threshold limits, with amalgam burners showing highest levels. Typical symptoms of chronic metallic mercury intoxication were tremor, ataxia, coordination problems, excessive salivation and metallic taste. Participants from the exposed groups showed poorer results in different neuropsychological tests in comparison to the control group. Fifty-four percent of the high-exposed group (amalgam burners) were diagnosed as being mercury-intoxicated, compared to 0% within the control group (Chi2 p < 0.001). Conclusions Chronic mercury intoxication, with tremor, ataxia and other neurological symptoms together with a raised body burden of mercury was clinically diagnosed in exposed people in artisanal small-scale mining areas. The mercury exposure needs to be urgently reduced. Health care systems need to be prepared for this emerging problem of chronic mercury intoxication among exposed people.

The aim of our work was to study the physical symptoms of upper- and lower-level white-collar workers using a questionnaire. The study was cross-sectional with a questionnaire posted to 15 000 working-age persons. The responses (6121) included 970 upper- and 1150 lower-level white-collar workers. In the upper - and lower-level white-collar worker groups, 45.7 and 56.0%, respectively, had experienced pain, numbness and aches in the neck either pretty often or more frequently. When comparing daily computer users and nonusers, there were significant differences in pain, numbness and aches in the neck or in the shoulders. In addition, age and gender influenced some physical symptoms. In the future, it is essential to take into account that working with computers can be especially associated with physical symptoms in the neck and in the shoulders when workers use computers daily.

Opis:
Background: Though the absence of vertigo in Meniere disease is often interpreted as remission, patient-centered subjective assessment of quality of life remains the best indicator of such remission. Study Objective: To assess the presence and severity of aural pressure/tinnitus, hearing loss, unsteadiness, nausea and vomiting in MD patients during remission. Setting: Urban tertiary care referral hospital in a developing country. Methodology: Consecutive patients with diagnosis of Definite Meniere were selected from the Balance and Dizziness Clinic of National Hospital Abuja for the study. Quality of life assessment was carried out using 3 validated tools – Modified MD-POSI, Vertigo Symptom Scale and Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI). Patients were included only when they have been vertigo free for at least 4 weeks. Pure tone audiometry was carried out in those with subjective hearing loss at recruitment and 4 weeks later. Results: A total of 26 patients completed the study. All had cinnarizine for acute vertigo control and Betahistine for maintenance of vertigo control. There was female preponderance (17:9). The age range was 32–56 years. The duration of MD ranges from 4 months to 12 years. The total and subscale MD-POSI scores for “between attacks” significantly correlated with hearing, unsteadiness and tinnitus/pressure when compared to during attack. 69.2 per cent of participants experienced symptoms of unsteadiness during remission. 13/26 of participants reported persistent, though less annoying tinnitus that poorly correlated with THI score during remission. Conclusion: Our study showed that significant non-vertigo symptoms affect the quality of life during remission. Perhaps there is need to properly define, in future studies, what constitutes remission in patients with MD.

This paper presents the use of new technical equipment by young adults (30 years old or younger), and the physical symptoms they have. The paper then analyses how the symptoms are associated with the use of computers and mobile phones, taking into account the background information. The study is based on a survey of 15 000 working-age (18–65) Finns. The responses (1563) covering young adults’ physical symptoms were analysed. Altogether 53.3% of all young adults had pretty often or more frequently pain, numbness or aches in the neck and 32.2% had aches in the hip and lower back. Women experienced more pain, numbness or aches in the neck (65.0%) than men (34.5%). The use of different computers at leisure quite often had an association with some symptoms in different parts of the body. In addition, exhaustion at work had associations with some physical symptoms. In the future, it is essential to note ergonomic reasons and exhaustion at work when young adults experience pain, numbness or aches.

ObjectivesComputer workstations are considered a potential workplace hazard. This study sought to evaluate computer workstation ergonomics in a university office environment, and to determine its relationship with musculoskeletal (MS) and visual symptoms reported by employees.Material and MethodsThis was a cross-sectional observational study. A total of 231 university employees were recruited using a stratified random sampling technique. By means of direct observation, computer workstations were evaluated using the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Ergonomic Computer Workstation Evaluation Checklist. In addition, the participants reported MS and visual symptoms during the past week and 12 months by completing questionnaires.ResultsSeveral ergonomic deficiencies in computer workstations were identified. Seating, working area, and keyboard and input devices had the most documented deficits. A significant proportion of employees reported various MS symptoms during the past 12 months. The most affected body parts were the shoulders (37%), the lower back (34%), and the neck (29%). The most prevalent visual symptom was tired eyes (68%). Logistic regression analysis indicated that MS symptoms, such as ache, pain and discomfort, were significantly associated with the total scores on the OSHA components. Deficits in monitor ergonomics and its placement, particularly the presence of glare reflected on the screen, were also associated with reported visual symptoms. Independent variables, such as gender, age, employment duration, job type, daily computer work hours, and work pattern, reliably predicted the participants’ reported experience of various MS and visual symptoms.ConclusionsBoth MS and visual symptoms are associated with deficits in computer workstation ergonomics. Appropriate strategies, work practices, and preventive measures are needed to eliminate occupational hazards associated with computer workstations.

Opis:
The objective of the study was to test how selected respondents (psychologists and police officers) evaluate the diagnostic value of symptoms (cues) of deception listed in literature on the subject. To achieve that, 16 verbal and non-verbal (behavioural) symptoms listed in literature as most typical and most frequently accompanying deceit were ever located by 100 police officers and 101 psychologists (n=201). Their task was to group the symptoms according to the following categories: “oft en present”, “rarely present”, and “never present”. Both the groups of respondents claimed that in their work they have to frequently decide whether their interlocutors tell the truth or lie, and are convinced that they are capable of accurate detection of deception through their assessment of verbal and non-verbal (behavioural) symptoms accompanying lie. The latter belief is clearly refuted by the results of all known experimental studies. In fact, police officers and psychologists agreed that the most diagnostic symptom is “avoidance of eye contact” (143 respondents categorised it as often present). “High frequency of eye blinking” was considered least diagnostic of the symptoms, with only 47 respondents claiming that it is frequent, together with “head scratching” with 51 considering it as occurring “often”). Convergence of the respondents’ opinions was high. No significant differences between the occupational and age groups, and genders were discovered. The results of the study remain coherent with the results of studies by other authors maintaining that the skill of detecting deception in the interlocutor is determined neither by education, nor occupation, nor gender, nor the age of the person performing the detection.

Introduction and objectives. Although physical activity has been found to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and depression in the general population, little is known about physical patterns and the link with postnatal depressive symptoms and awareness of cardiovascular risk factors in postpartum women. The aim of this study was to examine physical activity patterns and their link to depressive symptoms in postpartum women. The secondary endpoint was the assessment of health awareness in women six months after delivery. Material and methods. Eighty postpartum women with a mean age of 27±4 years (group A – 40 physically active women, group B – 40 women leading a sedentary lifestyle) completed a self-report questionnaire and The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) questionnaire. Results. In group A, the types of physical activity undertaken in the six-month period after delivery were as follows: 20 women – housework (180 min/session), 18 women – gentle walks (180 min/session), 16 women – group fitness classes (60 min/session), 6 – rapid walking (40 min/session), 3 women – swimming (60 min/session), 2 women – jogging (45 min/session), 1 woman – squash, (45 min/session) 1 – dancing (90 min/session), 1 – tennis (60min/session). Group B declared a sedentary lifestyle and physical activity of less than 30 min a day. The level of health awareness was statistically better in women who were physically active six months after delivery than in women who led a sedentary lifestyle. On a scale with a maximum 55 points, the mean scores were 47.4 in group A and 31.2 in group B (p=0.001). Depressive symptoms were more pronounced in group B. Twenty seven women from group A and three women from group B returned to their pre-pregnancy weight (p=0.04). Conclusions. Women who were physically active after delivery were characterized by higher health awareness and more frequent return to pre-pregnancy weight. Physical activity may be important for reducing the risk of postnatal depression.

Opis:
Background: As dental technicians are exposed to a variety of airborne chemicals that can act as irritants and sensitizers, and may give rise to work-related respiratory symptoms, the aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of respiratory symptoms of exposure to substances in the workplace and associated risk factors in dental laboratory technicians. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed among 539 dental technicians in the Plovdiv region using a self-report questionnaire. A multiple logistic regression analysis was performed in order to investigate the relationship between sex, work experience, daily exposure to chemicals from the dental environment, and a history of atopic disorder with work-related respiratory symptoms. Results: A total of 539 dental technicians completed the questionnaire. The prevalence of self-reported work-related respiratory symptoms was 26.2%. Based on logistic regression, the most significant factors associated with work-related respiratory symptoms were daily exposure of >8 h (OR = 5.83, 95% CI: 1.96–17.34) and the lack of a ventilation system (OR = 4.26, 95% CI: 2.39–7.58). Dental technicians with work experience of <5 years more often reported work-related respiratory symptoms (OR = 1.83, 95% CI: 1.14–3.44) compared to those with long-term exposure of >20 years. A personal history of asthma (OR = 3.74, 95% CI: 1.39–10.07), allergic rhinoconjunctivitis (OR = 2.10, 95% CI: 1.29–3.41) and atopic dermatitis (OR = 2.32, 95% CI: 1.23–4.38) was also associated with work-related respiratory symptoms. Conclusions: The findings of this study suggest that work-related respiratory symptoms are frequent among dental technicians and occur early in their career. A more comprehensive study should be conducted throughout the country in order to estimate the prevalence, and to establish effective programs and techniques of preventing work-related respiratory symptoms in dental technicians.

Opis:
Na podstawie przeglądu literatury oraz własnych doświadczeń inżynierskich, przedstawiono w pracy aktualny stan wiedzy na temat diagnostyki technicznej obiektów budowlanych. Podano uwarunkowania hamujące diagnostykę techniczną w budownictwie. Pokazano możliwości diagnostyki technicznej obiektów budowlanych, z wykorzystaniem metod właściwych diagnostyce maszyn, diagnostyce maszyn roboczych, procesów. Wykazano potrzebę wprowadzenia symptomów granicznych i alarmowych. Wykazano potrzebę modyfikacji programów nauczania na wydziałach budownictwa wyższych uczelni o naukowe podstawy diagnostyki technicznej. Wskazano, że celowym byłoby wprowadzenie nowego przedmiotu pod nazwą "Diagnostyka techniczna obiektów budowlanych", niezależnie od istniejących rozdrobnionych przedmiotów typu diagnostyka i wzmacnianie konstrukcji stalowych, żelbetowych, drewnianych, kompozytowych czy diagnostyka i wzmacnianie fundamentów.
The present state of knowledge of the subject of technical diagnostics of structures was discussed in the paper. The conditions that impede technical diagnostics, which is an important area of knowledge, were presented. The possibilities of technical diagnostics of structures with the use of the methods useful in diagnostics of machinery and processes were also described. The need of introducing a limit and alarm symptoms was stated. It was shown that it is necessary to extend the civil engineering syllabus to include the scientific bases of technical diagnostics. It was indicated that the new subject could replace diverse subjects such as diagnostics and strengthening of steel, concrete timber and composite structures and diagnostics and strengthening of foundations.

Opis:
Topiramate is an antiepileptic drug prescribed in the treatment of numerous psychiatric disorders and in epilepsy. Topiramate exerts its antiepileptic effect through different mechanisms, such as by the blockage of sodium channels, increasing GABAergic neurotransmission, antagonizing excitatory amino acid receptors (glutamate) or blocking calcium channels. Its prescription in psychiatric diseases has increased in recent years and psychotic symptom development due to the usage of topiramate has been observed in some studies. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate the patient for psychotic symptoms while using topiramate. This article presents a case of a 37-year-old woman who developed depression, anxiety and auditory hallucinations during the treatment with 150 mg of topiramate. After stopping topiramate, 5 mg of olanzapine bid was started and the symptoms gradually decreased and finally disappeared.
Topiramat to lek przeciwdrgawkowy przepisywany w leczeniu wielu zaburzeń psychicznych i padaczce. Mechanizm działania przeciwdrgawkowego jest wielokierunkowy – np. lek ten blokuje kanały sodowe, stymuluje neurotransmisję w układzie GABA-ergicznym, antagonizuje receptory dla pobudzających aminokwasów (glutaminian) oraz blokuje kanały wapniowe. Jakkolwiek w ostatnich latach topiramat przepisywany jest coraz częściej w leczeniu zaburzeń psychicznych, to jednak w kilku badaniach zgłaszano występowanie objawów psychotycznych w następstwie jego stosowania. Z tego względu szczególnie ważna jest ocena pacjentów stosujących ten lek pod kątem występowania objawów psychotycznych. Autorzy przedstawiają przypadek 37-letniej pacjentki, u której w związku z leczeniem z użyciem 150 mg topiramatu rozwinęły się depresja, zaburzenia lękowe i omamy słuchowe. Po odstawieniu topiramatu zalecono stosowanie 5 mg olanzapiny dwa razy dziennie. Objawy stopniowo zanikały, aż do całkowitego ustąpienia.

Objectives Many facts indicate the important role of psychosomatic symptoms that occur due to traumatic events. This study is an analysis of the coexistence of psychosomatic symptoms and traumatic events. Though not every person taking part in these events develops a fully symptomatic post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), psychosomatic symptoms with a strong psychological component are observed in many. This study focuses on a comparison of the intensity of somatization, anxiety, depression, and distress of medical university students, who encountered a traumatic event and those who have not experienced trauma. Material and Methods The data was collected from 594 students of different academic majors at the Poznan University of Medical Sciences, Poland. The participants were asked if they had experienced situations that caused psychological trauma as well as about the intensity of their psychosomatic symptoms. The data was collected with 2 questionnaires: Post-traumatic Stress Diagnostic Scale and Four-Dimensional Symptom Questionnaire. Results The study reveals that 78% of students experienced a traumatic event, in 15% moderate and severe symptoms of PTSD are observed, 45% presents average and high stress levels, 23% experiences symptoms of depression, whereas 30% has anxiety and 26% somatic symptoms. Conclusions Studies show that experiencing traumatic events in life is linked to the higher intensity of an/the entire range of psychosomatic symptoms.

We analyzed the relationship between personality traits and smoking status and nicotine withdrawal symptoms using two comprehensive models of personality: the Five-Factor Model and the Cloninger`s Temperament and Character Inventory. In total 295 people were examined, 149 smokers and 146 who have never smoked. To measure the severity of the nicotine dependence we used the Fagerstroem Tolerance Questionnaire and the DSM-IV criteria of nicotine dependence and to measure the nicotine withdrawal symptoms the Nicotine Dependence History. The results showed significant differences between the groups in particular dimensions: Neuroticism, Agreeableness and Conscientiousness. The analyse of the TCI demonstrate, that smokers are higher in Novelty Seeking and lower in Reward Dependence than never smokers and show less Self-Directness and Cooperativeness. The mediation analyses showed that Self-Directness is the significant mediator between Extra-Introversion and nicotine withdrawal symptoms measured by NDHIS and between Neuroticism and DSMIV criteria of nicotine dependence.

The objective of the study was analysis of the occurrence and intensity of menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal women from Poland, Belarus, Ukraine, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Poland. The study was conducted during the period 2014–2015 among postmenopausal women living in the areas of Poland, Belarus, Ukraine, Czech Republic and Slovakia. The degree of menopausal complaints was assessed using the Kupperman Menopausal Index and Greene Climacteric Scale. The respondents were additionally asked about age, educational level, place of residence, marital status and age at last menstrual period. Into the study were enrolled women aged 50–65, minimum 2 years after the last menstrual period, who had a generally good state of health and did not use hormone replacement therapy. The results were subjected to statistical analysis. The intensity of all menopausal symptoms measured by the Kupperman Menopausal Index and Greene Climacteric Scale was similar in Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia. In these countries, severe, moderate and mild menopausal symptoms measured by Kupperman Menopausal Index occurred with a similar frequency. Similar results were also obtained in the subscales of psychological, somatic and vasomotor symptoms according to the Greene Climacteric Scale. Nearly a half of the women from Belarus did not report symptoms measured by Kupperman Menopausal Index. They obtained significantly lower menopausal complaints in the subscales of psychological and somatic symptoms according to the Greene Climacteric Scale, compared to the inhabitants of the remaining countries. The majority of women from the Ukraine had mild menopausal symptoms as measured by the Kupperman Menopausal Index. They had significantly more severe complaints in the subscales of psychological, somatic and vasomotor symptoms according to the Greene Climacteric Scale, compared to the inhabitants of the remaining countries in the study. The intensity of menopausal symptoms in women from Ukraine and Belarus was related with educational level, place of residence, and marital status, whereas in women from Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia, only with marital status.

Opis:
Preliminary study of the total dust exposure in the textile industry of Semarang city is 233 μg/Nm3, which exceeds the quality standard. The high concentration of dust is influenced by increased productivity, so that it has the potential as a source of pollutants that can affect the respiratory system of workers. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between dust exposure and respiratory disorders symptoms in workers. The method used is a cross-sectional study with a sample size of 161 people and 6 points of dust measurement locations. The Modified Medical Research Council (MMRC) standardized questionnaire was used to collect data. The data were analyzed using the SPSS 24 with Chi square and Binary logistic regression tests to determine the relationship. The results showed that the average dust concentration exceeded the quality standard, namely 4 location points for PM2.5, 1 location point for PM10, and 2 location points for total dust. The average exposure to respirable dust is 3.93 μg/m3, which exceeds the quality standard. A total of 57% of workers experienced symptoms of respiratory disorders with the results of bivariate statistical analysis of 5 significant variables, namely PM2.5 (p = 0.021), PM10 (p = 0.002), total dust (p = 0.000), respirable dust (p = 0.002), and working period (p = 0.037). Meanwhile, the results of the binary logistic regression test had 2 significant variables, namely total dust (p = 0.000) and respirable dust (p = 0.006). The conclusion of this study is that total dust and respirable dust that exceed the quality standard have a higher risk of causing respiratory disorders symptoms with a probability of 71.6% and dust may be minimized by adding a pneumablo to each machine.

This was the title of a review of the book Konopnicka. Lustra i symptomy (słowo/obraz terytoria, Gdańsk 2011, p. 575) by Lena Magnore. The book is an abridged and edited version of her doctoral thesis. Opinions in my review are presented in a form of notes from reading academic literature. The purpose of Magnore’s book was a discussion with the homogeneous image of Konopnicka’s life and writings and attempt to make her image consistent. In order to achieve this goal, the author used modern methodologies and selected categories of the contemporary humanities, mostly psychoanalysis and gender studies. As a result, Konopnicka appears as a woman seen through the prism of charm and fear of femininity. The book allows to look at Konopnicka’s writing in different and unorthodox manner, provides sensitive documentation of difficult and painful issues. The use of “psychoanalytical key of interpretation” makes it possible to see different mechanism of denying femininity, important “wounds of text”, motifs unknown in traditional writings about maternity, different forms of hysteria.

Opis:
Introduction: Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers occurring in Poland. Unfortunately, this cancer is most often diagnosed at the time of great advancement. This is caused by the appearance of specific symptoms only in the late stages of cancer. Also, such low detection of early stages of adenocarcinoma may be caused by disregarding of slight symptoms. Purpose: To analyse symptoms in patients with colorectal cancer and correlate with chosen clinical-pathological parameters. Materials and methods: The study group consisted of 46 patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer. Information on symptoms associated with cancer (subjective and objective) have been selected from patients' medical history. The presence of these symptoms was correlated with the age and sex of patients, tumor location, histological type of cancer, grade of histological malignancy (G), stage of tumor (T stage), presence of lymph node metastases and distant metastases. Results: It has been shown that the presence of pain complaints described by the patient are associated with the occurrence of cancer in the colon. The painfulness and pathological resistance diagnosed by the physician are more often associated with cancer located in the colon. In the case of tumors located in the rectum, faecal admixtures appear more frequently. It has also been shown that the presence of admixtures of blood and mucus in the stool is associated with more advanced local tumors, infiltrating pericolorectal tissues (T3 + T4). Conclusions: Familiarity with clinical symptoms of colorectal cancer could make patients more sensitive to more often screening for cancer. Analysis of these symptoms could indicate to the physician the location or stage of the cancer.

The aim of the study was to establish whether any relation exists between depression symptoms and the extent to which adolescents accept the changes their bodies undergo (the physical changes they experience at different stages of growing up), and if the connection does exist – is it gender-related. Method: Data were collected from four sub-groups: younger girls (aged 12–13), older girls (aged 17–18), younger boys (aged 12–13), and older boys (aged 17–18). The participants were asked to complete questionnaires that allow to measure the subjective intensity of depression symptoms (BDI), the current stage of biological changes (the Tanner scale) and whether these changes are accepted by the individual who experiences them (the original Feelings Towards the Body questionnaire). Results: The less adolescents accept the changes in their bodies, the higher depression symptoms they demonstrate. For younger girls, older girls and older boys, no links were established between levels of accepting bodily changes and early/late maturation (in comparison with the population of their peers). For younger boys, the later the stage of their development, the less likely they are to accept the changes in their bodies. Girls report more intense depression symptoms than boys do, but their levels of accepting changes that occur around puberty are significantly lower only when compared to those of older boys. Conclusions: Whether biological changes during puberty (mainly feelings of anxiety and shame related to the body) are accepted or not, was proven to be a significant predictor of more intense depression symptoms.

Opis:
Charakterystyki drganiowe stanowią ważne źródło informacji o stanie technicznym maszyny. W większości zastosowań dla złożonych maszyn diagnoza opiera się na widmach drgań, jednak wpływ na nie ma, oprócz parametrów stanu, wiele innych czynników. Alternatywnym sposobem uzyskania informacji o stanie technicznym maszyny jest analiza trendów drgań. Można to zrealizować przez zastosowanie tzw. symptomów ewolucyjnych, opisujących ilościowo zależność poziomów drgań od czasu. Z modeli teoretycznych można wywnioskować, że zarówno szybkość narastania, jak i odstępstwo od liniowości mogą być przyjęte jako symptomy diagnostyczne. Ocena eksperymentalnych trendów drgań, uzyskanych dla turbin parowych, potwierdza ten wniosek i wykazuje, że tego rodzaju symptomy pod wieloma względami przewyższają typowe symptomy drganiowe, wykorzystywane w procedurach diagnostycznych.
Vibration patterns provide an important source of information on machine technical condition. In most applications for complex machines, diagnosis is based on vibration spectra, but they are influence by many factors other than condition parameters. Consequently false alerts can be triggered. Analysis of vibration trends is an alternative way to extract information on machine technical condition. This can be achieved by employing so-called evolutionary symptoms, which describe quantitatively the time dependence of vibration levels. From theoretical models we may conclude that both increase rate and departure from linearity can be accepted as diagnostic symptoms. Evaluation of experimental vibration time histories, obtained for steam turbines, has confirmed this conclusion and shown that such symptoms are in many aspects superior to typical vibration-based symptoms employed in diagnostic procedures.

Opis:
Customers of pharmacies in conversations with their pharmacists, when asking for help in choosing a treatment, often refer to various symptoms, including depression. Communication with the pharmacists is an important factor in shaping the consumers’ health knowledge and behaviors. The aim of the study was to investigate specific characteristics of pharmacist – patient conversations during which patients refer to depressive symptoms. The questionnaire included questions addressing various independent factors related to the communicative situation which may affect the number and kind of reported depressive symptoms. The study participants were 60 pharmacists (with university level and postsecondary education). The results of the statistical analysis confirmed the hypotheses about differences in reported symptoms of depression. A hypothesis that the confidence of customers in their communication with the pharmacists increases with the age and education of the pharmacists was confirmed only in part. In addition, the results revealed that factors such as community size, number of pharmacies in a community and number of employees per work shift significantly correlate with more intensive communication of depressive symptoms.

Opis:
The authors present the classification, symptoms and diagnostic methods of renal injuries. These injuries can be life-threatening, but most of them are mild and can be managed conservatively. No less than 75% patients who were diagnosed with renal injuries are men. The group which is particularly exposed to renal injuries are young men doing sports, the injured of road accidents, victims of accidents in the house or at work, victims of fights and assaults. The results of conducted studies indicate that haematuria, pain and ecchymosis in the lumbar region, fractured ribs as well as abdominal mass can be the symptoms of renal injury. There are blunt and penetrating renal injuries as well as a 5-level classification of kidney injuries according to a degree of injuries – AAST. This classification enables to perform a standardization of different patient groups to choose a proper therapy and to predict the results of treatment. The mechanism of injury, its placement and severity are the standard guidelines within a choice of diagnostic methods and indications for treatment’s strategy. The imaging examinations are necessary in diagnostics of abdomen injuries with a suspicion of renal injury. Among the imaging examinations used in diagnostics of injuries of urogenital system and renal injuries it is to enumerate: ultrasonography, computed tomography, urography, arteriography and angiography. Computed tomography of abdomen with contrast injected into an intravenous line is a gold standard in diagnostics of renal injuries. If computed tomography is not available, it is recommended to perform ultrasonography as an examination of first choice.
Autorzy przedstawiają klasyfikację, objawy i metody diagnostyczne urazów nerek. Urazy te mogą zagrażać życiu, jednak większość z nich ma łagodny przebieg i można je leczyć zachowawczo. Aż 75% pacjentów, u których stwierdzono uszkodzenia nerek, to mężczyźni. Grupę szczególnie narażoną stanowią młodzi mężczyźni uprawiający sport, uczestnicy wypadków drogowych, ofiary wypadków w domu lub w miejscu pracy, ofiary bójek i napadów. Z przeprowadzonych badań wynika, że objawami urazu nerek mogą być: krwiomocz, bóle i zasinienia w okolicach lędźwiowych, złamania żeber, napięty brzuch. Wyróżnia się urazy tępe i penetrujące oraz pięciostopniową klasyfikację urazów nerek według stopnia odniesionych obrażeń – AAST. Klasyfikacja ta pozwala na dokonanie pewnej standaryzacji różnych grup pacjentów i wyboru właściwej terapii oraz stwarza możliwość przewidywania wyników leczenia. Mechanizm urazu, jego umiejscowienie i ciężkość stanowią podstawowe wytyczne w wyborze metod diagnostycznych oraz postępowania leczniczego. Niezbędnym elementem diagnostyki urazu jamy brzusznej z podejrzeniem uszkodzenia nerek jest wykonanie badań obrazowych. Wśród badań obrazowych mających zastosowanie w diagnostyce urazów układu moczowo-płciowego oraz nerek należy wymienić: ultrasonografię, tomografię komputerową, urografię, angiografię i arteriografię. Tomografia komputerowa jamy brzusznej z dożylnym podaniem środka cieniującego stanowi złoty standard w diagnostyce urazów nerek. Przy braku dostępności tomografii komputerowej zalecane jest wykonanie ultrasonografii jako badania pierwszego rzutu.

The ENT specialist is one of the medical officers who may make initial contact with a patient with a suspected parasitic disease. One of them is leishmaniosis: a parasitic disease classified as Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTD), which occurs in the tropics, subtropics and southern Europe. While asymptomatic invasion is observed in some cases, three forms of symptomatic leishmaniosis can be distinguished: cutaneous leishmaniosis (CL), visceral leishmaniosis (VL), and mucosal leishmaniosis (ML). Signs and symptoms of these forms, as well as the differential diagnosis, diagnostic procedures and treatment are presented in the paper.

Objectives: Evaluation of the correlation between efficiency of working memory and positive and negative symptoms in patients with the first episode of schizophrenia, those who have not been treated so far and those after six weeks’ treatment with antipsychotics. Methods: The study covered 32 patients (20 men and 12 women) aged 18-46 years (22 years on average) with diagnosed first episode of schizophrenia (ICD-10), admitted to hospital, not treated so far. Prior to treatment and after six weeks of antipsychotic treatment (14 – TN and 18 – NAP in typical doses) clinical state (PANSS) and working memory were evaluated (WCST, TMT B, Digit Span backward from Wechsler Intelligence Scale WAIS-R – PL). Conclusions: 1) In previously untreated patients, during severe symptoms of schizophrenia the working memory dysfunction was mostly correlated with the presence of negative symptoms, to a less extent – with the presence of general symptoms. 2) After six weeks of antipsychotic treatment of patients with the first episode of schizophrenia an advantageous change in the working memory functioning and significant change of mental state were observed, expressed by abatement – to a significant extent – of both positive and negative symptoms. 3) The advantageous change in the working memory functioning after six weeks’ treatment of patients with the first episode of schizophrenia was associated with abatement of all groups of pathological symptoms, but it mostly correlated with an improvement within negative symptoms. 4) Finding a strong correlation between the working memory disorders and the presence and severity of negative symptoms before and after pharmacotherapy, whatever its type (TN or NAP), perhaps indicates a similar aetiology of these symptoms (common neuroanatomic basis) and existence of a special subtype of schizophrenia.
Cele: Ocena związku między sprawnością pamięci operacyjnej a objawami pozytywnymi i negatywnymi u pacjentów z pierwszym epizodem schizofrenii, dotychczas nieleczonych oraz po sześciu tygodniach kuracji lekami przeciwpsychotycznymi. Metody: Do badania włączono 32 chorych (20 mężczyzn i 12 kobiet) w wieku 18-46 lat (średnio 22 lata), z rozpoznaniem pierwszego epizodu schizofrenii (ICD-10), przyjętych do szpitala, dotychczas nieleczonych. Przed leczeniem i po sześciu tygodniach leczenia przeciwpsychotycznego (14 – LPIG i 18 – LPIIG w typowych dawkach) oceniono stan kliniczny (PANSS) oraz pamięć operacyjną (WCST, TMT B, Powtarzanie Cyfr wspak z WAIS-R – PL). Wnioski: 1) U chorych wcześniej nieleczonych w okresie ostrych objawów schizofrenii dysfunkcja pamięci operacyjnej miała związek przede wszystkim z obecnością objawów negatywnych, w mniejszym stopniu z obecnością objawów ogólnych. 2) Po sześciu tygodniach leczenia przeciwpsychotycznego pacjentów z pierwszym epizodem schizofrenii stwierdzono korzystną zmianę funkcjonowania pamięci operacyjnej oraz znamienną zmianę stanu psychicznego, wyrażoną ustępowaniem w istotnym stopniu zarówno objawów pozytywnych, jak i negatywnych. 3) Pozytywna zmiana funkcjonowania pamięci operacyjnej po sześciu tygodniach leczenia chorych z pierwszym epizodem schizofrenii wiązała się z wycofywaniem się wszystkich grup objawów choroby, lecz w największym stopniu korelowała z poprawą w zakresie objawów negatywnych. 4) Stwierdzenie silnego związku między zaburzeniami pamięci operacyjnej a obecnością i nasileniem objawów negatywnych przed farmakoterapią i po niej, niezależnie od jej rodzaju (KN lub LPIIG), wskazuje być może na podobną etiologię tych objawów (wspólne podłoże neuroanatomiczne) oraz istnienie szczególnego podtypu schizofrenii.

Introduction. Researchers who study the problems of Internet addiction point out that this dependence is often co-morbid with symptoms of a variety of pathological disorders, including anxiety, depressive, somatization, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. The goal of this study was to compare the severity of psychopathological symptoms in individuals at risk of Internet addiction (according to Young’s criteria) and those not at risk of developing this addiction with respect to gender and place of residence (urban vs. rural). Materials and method. The study included a group of 692 respondents (485 females and 207 males). The average age of the participants was 20.8 years. 56.06% of them lived in urban areas and 43.94% in rural areas. The following instruments were used: a sociodemographic questionnaire designed by the authors, Young’s 20-item Internet Addiction Test (IAT, Polish translation by Majchrzak and Ogińska-Bulik), and the “O” Symptom Checklist (Kwestionariusz Objawowy “O”, in Polish) by Aleksandrowicz. Results. Individuals at risk of Internet addiction showed significantly more severe pathological symptoms than the individuals who were not at risk of this addiction. There were differences in the severity of psychopathological symptoms between people at risk of Internet dependence living in urban and rural areas. Conclusions. Individuals at risk of Internet addiction were found to be characterized by a significantly higher severity of obsessive-compulsive, conversion, anxiety, and depressive symptoms. Persons at risk of Internet addiction who lived in rural areas had significantly more severe psychopathological symptoms, mainly obsessive-compulsive, hypochondriac and phobic, compared to their urban peers.

Introduction: The role of cross-reactive carbohydrate determinants (CCDs) in diagnostics of occupational allergy remains unclarified and its clinical relevance is still questioned. The aim of the study was to assess the frequency of positive response to CCDs in the subjects with suspected occupational allergy and the relationship between other diagnostic test results and final diagnosis. Material and methods: The study group included 201 patients. They underwent clinical examination, skin prick test (SPT) to common and occupational allergens, specific serum immunoglobulin (sIgE) determinations, spirometry and specific inhalation challenge test. Moreover, sIgE to CCDs from bromelain was assessed in all subjects. Results: Occupational respiratory allergy was recognized in 64.3% of CCD-positive and 52.4% of CCD-negative patients. Positive SPT results to common and occupational allergens were found in 64.3% and 35.7% of CCD-positive subjects, respectively. In all subjects with CCDs, the sIgE to grass pollens as well as to occupational allergens were detected. The total IgE level > 100 kU/l was significantly associated with the presence of sIgE to CCDs. Conclusions: sIgE to CCDs were found in 7% of subjects suspected to suffer from occupational respiratory allergy. The presence of CCDs is not significantly associated with occupational respiratory allergy. It is also not more frequent in subjects reporting work-related respiratory symptoms in whom occupational allergy was not confirmed. The elevated total IgE level was related with CCD positivity. In patients with suspected occupational allergy, the presence of sIgE to CCDs in serum did not indicate the irrelevance of positive sIgE to occupational allergens.

Opis:
For patients with type 1 diabetes, sense of coherence (SOC), locus of control (LOC) and depression symptoms seem to be important variables in the context of compliance with a treatment regimen. The aim of this article is to describe the functioning of adolescents with type 1 diabetes—to define the common features and differentiating characteristics of the clinical group in comparison with the control group in terms of SOC, LOC and symptoms of depression. The other aim is to check whether LOC mediates the relationship between SOC and depression symptoms in the diabetics group. The study involved 100 adolescents aged 13–17. The clinical group contained adolescents with type 1 diabetes while the control group featured adolescents without diabetes. Antonovsky’s Sense of Coherence Scale (SOC-29), the Locus of Control Questionnaire (LOCQ) by Krasowicz and Kurzyp-Wojnarska and the Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI) by Kovacs were used. The groups did not differ in their SOC level but varied in the level of depression symptoms and LOC. The clinical and control groups had undetermined and external LOC, respectively. Diabetics also had a lower level of depression symptoms. SOC correlated positively with LOC and negatively with depression symptoms. Additionally, within the clinical group, LOC mediated the relationship between SOC and symptoms of depression. Determining the level of key health variables in type 1 diabetics is important in educating them how to manage their disease. With regard to adolescents without diabetes, the results confirm the need to intensify activities aimed at monitoring their mental state.

Objectives To explore the relationship between depressive symptoms, fatigue and psychological flexibility, as well as their interactions on depression in Chinese nurses. Material and Methods Using convenience sampling, a cross-sectional survey of 796 nurses in municipal hospitals of Zhengzhou, Henan Province, China, was conducted. The questionnaires of Work-related Acceptance and Action Questionnaire, Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale and Fatigue Assessment Instrument were used. Hierarchical regression and bootstrap methods were used to examine the mediating effect of psychological flexibility between fatigue and depression. Results More than 51.8% of the nurses were at risk of depression and 62.3% were at risk of fatigue. There was a significantly positive and moderate correlation between depression and fatigue severity, situation specificity, and consequences (r = 0.43, r = 0.24 and r = 0.31, respectively, p < 0.01). Depression was negatively correlated with psychological flexibility (r = –0.28, p < 0.01). Psychological flexibility had a negative impact on depression with the explained variance increased by 4.2% (β = –0.211, p < 0.001). The bootstrap method showed that the mediating effect of psychological flexibility accounting for 8.5% and 12.3% on fatigue and depressive symptoms, respectively. Conclusions Psychological flexibility plays a partial mediating role between the fatigue severity, consequences of fatigue and depressive symptoms of nurses. Hospital managers should improve medical staff work acceptance to alleviate their depressive symptoms.

Objectives Manicurists are exposed to various chemicals in nail and skin care products and may develop ocular, nasal, respiratory or skin adverse reactions to them. To investigate the occurrence of ocular, nasal, respiratory and skin problems among manicurists and to identify their causal factors, particularly allergic etiology and occupational origin. Material and Methods Manicurists employed in beauty salons in the central region of Poland were invited to fill in the questionnaire and undergo medical examination, skin prick tests with common aeroallergens, patch tests with European Baseline Series and (Meth)Acrylates Series-Nails and spirometry. Results In the questionnaire adverse nasal symptoms were reported by 70%, ocular – by 58%, respiratory – by 42%, hand eczema – by 43% of manicurists. In the medical interview, the frequency of those complaints was lower: nasal ones – 41%, ocular – 24%, cough – 18%, hand skin dryness – 20%, hand eczema – 6%. Cough and hand skin dryness occurred significantly more frequently than in the case of controls. Contact allergy was found for 41% of manicurists and 35% of controls. The prevalence of nickel sensitization was high in both groups (38% and 27%, respectively). Only 3 manicurists reacted to (meth)acrylates. The frequency of atopic diseases was similar in compared groups. Irritant nasal and respiratory reactions were significantly more prevalent among manicurists (nasal – 18% vs. 2%, p < 0.01; respiratory – 18% vs. 1%, p < 0.001). Work-related nasal irritant reactions were finally diagnosed for 19%, ocular ones – for 13%, respiratory – for 18% and within hand skin – for 23% of manicurists. Conclusions The frequency of workattributed irritant mucosal and skin symptoms among manicurists is high. Exposure to acrylates is an important source of mucosal irritant reactions while occlusive gloves cause irritation of hand skin. The prevalence of nickel allergy among Polish females is high.

The study aimed to replicate our research findings of 2019 by comparing the incidence of emotional disorder symptoms and global trait emotional intelligence (EI) and assessing the closeness of relationships of the observed variables in the context of the new COVID-19 pandemic situation. The data were gathered by self-report tests measuring levels of fears (KSAT), anxiety (STAI), depression (CDI) and trait emotional intelligence (TEIQue-ASF) in Slovak adolescents (N 270) aged 18 to 20 years (AM 18.42; SD 0.59) before (N 138) and during (N 132) the COVID-19 pandemic. Results revealed an increased incidence of emotional disorders (situational anxiety, stage fright, fear, and trait anxiety) and also a decreased level of global trait EI in the pandemic of 2019. Strong negative relationships were identified between global trait EI and trait anxiety (r -0.578; p ≤ .001), as well as medium negative relationships with overall fear (r 0.398; p ≤ .01) and stage fright (r 0.398; p ≤ .01). There were weak or no relationships between global trait EI and the other variables. Thus, higher global trait EI is related to a lower incidence of symptoms of specific emotional disorders. Our findings point to the validity of implementing socio-emotional learning elements into secondary school students' education.

INTRODUCTION: COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019), a disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) infection, may have a more or less severe course. The aim of this study was to analyse the symptoms which occurred in a group of people who tested positively for the presence of the genetic material of the virus. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The analysis was based on the results of 337 questionnaires collected from Polish patients – 185 (55%) females and 152 (45%) males aged 18–86. The questionnaire included 26 questions, of which 11 were related to systemic symptoms. The frequency of their occurrence and their severity were determined according to Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). RESULTS: The most common symptoms that occurred in over 50% of the respondents included: general weakness (91% of the respondents, severity of 6.25 on VAS), musculoskeletal pain (77%, VAS 5.67), headache (65%, VAS 5.37) and cough (56%, VAS 4.76). Runny nose, fever above 38℃ and sore throat were less common and occurred in 39% of the subjects. The least frequent symptoms were diarrhoea (23%), skin lesions (7%) and vomiting (3%). When determining the correlation coefficient, it was also found that dyspnoea occurred most often with general weakness (r = 1), whereas general weakness was less frequently associated with musculoskeletal pain (r = 0.8). No statistically significant relationships were found between the frequency of the symptoms and age, gender or the presence of comorbidities in the respondents. CONCLUSIONS: The observations showed that in the analysed group of people with SARS-CoV-2 infection, the disease had a mild-to-moderate course. General weakness, musculoskeletal pain, cough, and upper respiratory tract infection symptoms were the most common.
WSTĘP: COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019), choroba wywołana infekcją SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2), może charakteryzować się mniej lub bardziej nasilonym przebiegiem. Celem niniejszego opracowania była analiza objawów, jakie wystąpiły w grupie osób z dodatnim wynikiem testu na obecność materiału genetycznego wirusa. MATERIAŁ I METODY: Analizę przeprowadzono na podstawie wyników ankiety przeprowadzonej wśród 337 polskich pacjentów – 185 (55%) kobiet oraz 152 (45%) mężczyzn w wieku 18–86 lat. Kwestionariusz zawierał 26 pytań, z czego 11 dotyczyło objawów ogólnoustrojowych. Określono częstość ich występowania oraz nasilenie w skali VAS (Visual Analogue Scale). WYNIKI: Do najczęstszych objawów, występujących u ponad 50% ankietowanych, należą: ogólne osłabienie (91% ankietowanych, nasilenie 6,25 w skali VAS), bóle układu mięśniowo-szkieletowego (77%, VAS 5,67), bóle głowy (65%, VAS 5,37) oraz kaszel (56%, VAS 4,76). Chorobie rzadziej towarzyszyły katar, gorączka powyżej 38°C oraz bóle gardła, które wystąpiły u 39% pacjentów. Najrzadziej występowały biegunka (23%), zmiany skórne (7%) oraz wymioty (3%). Określając współczynnik korelacji, stwierdzono również, iż duszności występowały najczęściej z ogólnym osła-bieniem (r = 1), natomiast rzadziej ogólnemu osłabieniu towarzyszyły bóle mięśniowo-szkieletowe (r = 0,8). Nie stwierdzono statystycznie istotnych zależności między częstością występowania danych objawów a wiekiem, płcią czy chorobami współistniejącymi u ankietowanych. WNIOSKI: Obserwacje wykazały, iż w analizowanej grupie zakażonych SARS-CoV-2 choroba miała przebieg łagodny lub umiarkowany. Najczęstszymi objawami były: ogólne zmęczenie, bóle mięśniowo-szkieletowe, kaszel oraz objawy nieżytu górnych dróg oddechowych.

Introduction. It was established that intragestational depression is a common disease, with the estimated average prevalence of 10–25% in all expectant mothers worldwide. Aim of the study. The aim of the study was to evaluate the frequency of depressive symptoms in pregnant women in Poland and to identify which factors may be related to a higher risk of depressive symptoms during pregnancy. Material and methods. A prospective cross-sectional study was performed. Depressive symptoms were assessed with the validated Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS). 346 women were enrolled in the study. Results. 130 women (37.6%) scored 13 or more points and were considered as presenting with depressive symptoms. Independent risk factors of depressive symptoms during pregnancy including mood disorders diagnosed before the current pregnancy (aOR=2.68, 95%CI 1.37-5.22), mental disorders confirmed in family members (aOR=2.72, 95%CI 1.24-5.98), unhappiness in their current relationship (aOR=4.0, 95%CI 1.77-9.01), lack of support from family members (aOR=2.73, 95%CI 1.51-4.96) increased the risk of DS and good financial status decreased the risk of DS occurrence (aOR=0.45, 95%CI: 0.25-0.80). Conclusions. Pregnant women commonly report depressive symptoms. The evaluation of relations with the family members, socio-economic status, former depressive symptoms and possible prenatal depression are essential for proper screening of depression in pregnant women.

Opis:
The purpose of this article is to find answers to two questions of practical nature regarding the effectiveness of psychotherapy by referring to research results. These questions are the following: (1) In the case of which mental disorders is there a need to increase the skills of coping with stress in order to prevent the recurrence of symptoms? (2) What would that increase in coping skills be based on? A review of research on the deferred effects of psychotherapy showed that, firstly, studies address only depressive disorders, and, secondly, that teaching different cognitive and behavioral skills is effective in preventing the recurrence of these disorders. A review of studies on the contribution of stress to the etiology of mental disorders showed that in case of 13 disorders the contribution of stress is confirmed by empirical evidence. The theoretical clinical literature suggests that stress contributes to the induction of symptoms in cases of a larger number of disorders. Based on a review of research on coping with stress in representative general populations of adults experiencing stressful situations or traumatic events, it was determined what the ability of effective coping with stress consists in. It consists in adapting appropriate coping strategies aimed at eliminating the stressor or at mitigating the negative emotions associated with stress. In psychotherapy, teaching this skill seems to be a promising method of preventing the recurrence of mental disorder symptoms whose formation is associated with stress.

Objectives The humidifier disinfectant catastrophe in South Korea was a social disaster caused by toxic chemical substances. The present study aimed to examine the relationships between psychological symptoms and adaptive life functioning in survivors of humidifier disinfectants. This study examined the differential effects of psychological symptoms on life adjustment between survivors of humidifier disinfectant and the general population. Material and Methods A total of 452 individuals (228 general and 224 survivor groups) participated in this research. This study utilized the Adult Self-Report, one of the most widely used comprehensive mental health scales for measuring both psychological symptoms (e.g., anxiety/depression) and life adjustment functioning (e.g., interpersonal relationship). For the data analysis, multi-group structural equation modeling analysis was conducted using AMOS 21.0 program. Results The results of this study indicated that attention problems out of 8 psychological symptoms was the only significant factor related to life adjustment in both general and survivor groups. In addition, there was a significant 2-way interaction effect of group status and somatic complaints on life adjustment. Conclusions When the somatic complaint symptom was higher, participants in the survivor group were less likely to adjust in life than the general group. Taken together, the somatic complaints of the survivors more strongly influence the life adjustment than the general population. Finally, the authors discuss practical implications for survivors of humidifier disinfectants for designing suitable intervention strategies.

Dental personnel are at risk as they manually handle polymer products containing monomers and additives that cause irritation and induce allergy. Gloves and face masks can be easily penetrated by monomers. A total of 587 dental personnel and a referent group (585) in the 2 most northern regions of Sweden were included in a questionnaire study (response rate 76%). Questions were asked regarding symptoms of atopy, asthma, conjunctivitis, atopic dermatitis, hand dermatitis, and hay fever/rhinitis. The dental personnel were asked to give the name of polymer products used in their practice and the frequency of use. They were also asked to risk evaluate 5 different types of polymer materials on a scale from 1 to 5. Analysis was done to find if the occurrence of a symptom was associated with a high risk evaluation of a polymer material, or with frequent use of a certain polymer product. Significantly more dentists reported symptoms of atopic dermatitis and conjunctivitis compared to referents and chair assistants. Results show that dental personnel with symptoms risk evaluated most materials significantly higher than dental personnel without symptoms. Further, the occurrence of some symptoms was associated with frequent use of 8 polymer products.

Opis:
Background: The changes that occur in a woman’s body during the perimenopausal period may influence feelings of attractiveness and perception of status in an intimate relationship, which may play a role in overall sexual satisfaction. Aim of the study: The present study aimed to analyze the influence of selected perimenopausal symptoms on the perception of satisfaction with sexual life in urban and rural women. Material and methods: This study included 224 women from urban areas and 106 women from rural areas who were using general practice services. Inclusion criteria were women who had not menstruated for 2–5 years. The measures used were the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS) and the Sexual Quality of Life-Female questionnaire (SQoL-F). Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient was used to assess the relationship between the severity of perimenopausal symptoms and satisfaction with sexual life. Results: A greater proportion of urban women reported symptoms in the perimenopausal period than rural women. Statistically significant correlations were observed for irritability (P = 0.03) and sexual problems (P = 0.01). However, rural women reported a greater degree of symptom severity. There was a statistically significant difference in severity of somatic and psychological symptoms between urban and rural women. In urban women, the average score for general satisfaction with their sexual life was 62 ± 19.96, whereas the average score for rural women was slightly less, 59 ± 23.56. A statistically significant inverse relationship was observed between the severity of perimenopausal symptoms and quality of sexual life, with values of Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients ranging from −0.490 to −0.064. Conclusions: Urban or rural residence had a slight influence on the frequency and severity of perimenopausal symptoms, and severity of symptoms had a significant influence on women’s satisfaction with their sexual life.

Opis:
Ocena stanu układów przepływowych maszyn wirnikowych, w szczególności turbin parowych, opiera się na analizie generowanych przez nie składowych widm drgań. Istotna rolę odgrywają w niej symptomy ewolucyjne, czyli parametry charakteryzujące zmienność tych składowych w czasie. Ich interpretacja jest jednak niekiedy utrudniona. Jak się okazuje, wiele informacji zawiera się również w czasowej zależności wielkości charakteryzujących rozrzut statystyczny tych składowych. Parametry tej zależności, będące również symptomami ewolucyjnymi, okazują się wrażliwe na zmiany stanu układów przepływowych, a ich zastosowanie w dużym stopniu eliminuje konieczność stosowania procedur normalizacyjnych. Potwierdza to analiza kilku przypadków, dotyczących dużych turbin energetycznych.
Determination of the fluid-flow system technical condition in rotating machines, steam turbines in particular, is based on the analysis of vibration components generated by them. Important part is played by evolutionary symptoms, defined as parameters that describe their variations with time. Their interpretation is sometimes, however, difficult. It turns out that much information is contained in time histories of quantities that describe statistical scatter of these components. Parameters of these histories, themselves also evolutionary symptoms, are found to be sensitive to fluid-flow system condition variations, and their application largely eliminates the need for symptom normalization procedures. This is confirmed by several case histories for large utility power turbines.

Opis:
W pracy przedstawiono wykorzystanie eksperymentalnej analizy modalnej do oceny wpływu transmitancji drgań na symptomy diagnostyczne stanu kół zębatych. Badania prowadzono na stanowisku mocy krążącej FZG. Stosując młotek modalny wymuszano drgania kół, wałów i obudowy przekładni jednostkowym impulsem siły. Na podstawie badań otrzymano charakterystyki transmitancji wzajemnej oraz własnej wybranych punktów pomiarowych wałów i obudowy przekładni. Wyniki badań porównano z rozkładami czasowo-częstotliwościowymi sygnałów drganiowych przekładni, które towarzyszą zużyciu powierzchni roboczej zębów i wykruszeniu zęba koła.
The paper presents the use of experimental modal analysis in estimation of influence of vibration transmittance on diagnostics symptoms of tooth gear condition. The research was realized on power circulating gear testing machine FZG. Modal hammer was used to enforce gearbox element vibration. On the basis of the analysis characteristics of transmittance in different points of gearbox were received. The results of the experiment were compared to Wigner-Ville distribution of vibration signal, accompanying tooth surface and tooth local damages.

Opis:
Celem prezentowanego badania było poszukiwanie związków między nasileniem objawów nieuwagi i impulsywności/nadaktywności bądź zachowań opozycyjno-buntowniczych u dzieci w wieku szkolnym a podejmowanymi przez ich rodziców praktykami. Wzięło w nim udział 103 matki i 69 ojców. Byli oni rodzicami 108 dzieci w wieku 8-11 lat. W badaniu zastosowano narzędzia kwestionariuszowe, w tym polską adaptację The Alabama Parenting Questionnaire. Uzyskane wyniki wskazują na istnienie związku pomiędzy nasileniem objawów zachowań opozycyjno-buntowniczych występujących u dzieci a częstszym podejmowaniem przez matki praktyk negatywnych oraz rzadszym stosowaniem pozytywnych oddziaływań rodzicielskich. W grupie ojców nie otrzymano tak silnych zależności, mimo że stosowali oni niespójną dyscyplinę i kary cielesne częściej wraz ze wzrostem nasilenia zachowań opozycyjno-buntowniczych u dzieci. Zaobserwowano również związek między podejmowaniem przez matki niespójnej dyscypliny i słabej kontroli a większym nasileniem objawów nieuwagi i impulsywności/nadaktywności u dzieci. Zależności te nie wystąpiły w grupie ojców. Zgodnie z wcześniejszymi doniesieniami otrzymane wyniki pokazują silniejszy związek między podejmowanymi przez rodziców oddziaływaniami a nasileniem zachowań opozycyjno-buntowniczych niż nasileniem objawów nieuwagi i impulsywności/nadaktywności.
The aim of the current study was to determine the relationship between the intensity of symptoms of attention deficit, impulsiveness/hyperactivity, and oppositional or rebellious behaviours among school-age children and the practices undertaken by their parents. The participants were 103 mothers and 69 fathers. They were the parents of 108 children aged between 8–11 years old. In the study the questionnaires were used, among others the Polish version of The Alabama Parenting Questionnaire. The results point to a relationship between the intensity of oppositional or rebellious behaviours and more frequent negative practices implemented by mothers and also less frequent positive parental activities. Among the fathers’ group no such strong trends occurred, although fathers were more likely to use an incoherent discipline and a corporal punishment when the intensity of oppositional or rebellious behaviours of their children increased. Also, a relationship between an incoherent discipline and a weak control performed by mothers, with a higher intensity of attention deficit and impulsiveness/hyperactivity among their children emerged. No such relationship emerged among fathers. In accordance with the previous research, the current results suggest a stronger relationship between the actions taken by parents with the intensity of the oppositional or rebellious behaviours than with the intensity of attention deficit and impulsiveness/hyperactivity symptoms of children.

Opis:
This study aimed to evaluate possible health effects associated with long-term occupational exposure to low levels of mercury vapors. Forty-six subjects exposed to mercury and 65 healthy unexposed employees were studied. The subjects were administered a questionnaire on experienced symptoms and underwent clinical examinations as well as routine biochemical tests. Atmospheric and urinary concentrations of mercury were measured, too. Environmental concentrations of mercury were estimated to be 3.97 ± 6.28 μg/m3 and urinary concentrations of mercury in exposed and referent groups were 34.30 ± 26.77 and 10.15 ± 3.82 μg/dm3, respectively. Additionally, symptoms such as somatic fatigue, anorexia, loss of memory, erethism, blurred vision and teeth problems were significantly more common among exposed individuals. These observations indicate that occupational exposure to mercury vapors, even at low levels, is likely to be associated with neurological and psychological symptoms.

Opis:
Behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) are common among demented patients and constitute a serious problem not only because of additional care-related issues and increased caregivers’ burden, but also due to considerable consequences for the patients, including faster progression of cognitive disorder, increased care need and earlier institutionalization, risk of falls and injuries as well as increased mortality. Commonly used drugs (antipsychotics, antidepressants, antiepileptic) have limited efficacy and tolerability. Moreover, antipsychotics use in dementia has been linked to increased risk of cerebrovascular events (like stroke and myocardial infarct) and premature mortality. Non-pharmacological interventions have been proposed as an alternative to drug use. Their efficacy, although also limited, is not inferior to drugs while the risk of side effects is minimal as compared to any drug. Four different theoretical models (genetic-biological, behavioural, stress hypersensitivity and frustrated needs) are used for the development of different management approaches. The resulting, clinically confirmed methods include sensory interventions, structured activities and social activities potentialization. The commonly used behavioural methods, although popular, are surprisingly insufficiently examined in clinical trials. Wider use of non-pharmacological methods for dementia (including BPSD) is compromised by mental barriers of health professionals (including beliefs and habits), low level of knowledge among professionals and caregivers as well as barriers related to health care system and costs of care.
Zaburzenia zachowania i objawy psychotyczne dotyczą większości chorych otępiałych i stanowią poważny problem nie tylko z powodu trudności związanych z opieką i cierpienia opiekunów, ale także niekorzystnych następstw dla chorych, takich jak szybsza progresja dysfunkcji poznawczych, zwiększona potrzeba opieki i wcześniejsza instytucjonalizacja, ryzyko upadków i urazów oraz wyższa śmiertelność. Powszechnie stosowane leki (przeciwpsychotyczne, przeciwdepresyjne, przeciwpadaczkowe) cechuje ograniczona skuteczność, występują również problemy z tolerancją, a w przypadku leków przeciwpsychotycznych dodatkowe ryzyko powikłań ze strony układu krążenia i przedwczesnych zgonów. Alternatywą mogą być interwencje niefarmakologiczne, które są względnie dobrze przebadane, cechują się zadowalającą efektywnością wobec przynajmniej niektórych objawów behawioralnych (zwłaszcza pobudzenia, zaburzeń nastroju, zaburzeń snu i apatii) oraz zdecydowanie lepszym bezpieczeństwem stosowania niż jakiekolwiek leki. Stosowane podejścia opierają się na czterech modelach teoretycznych (genetyczno-biologiczny, behawioralny, nadwrażliwości na stres i niezaspokojonych potrzeb), z których wywodzi się specyficzne interwencje, dostosowane do potrzeb chorych z demencją. Do najlepiej przebadanych należą interwencje sensoryczne, ustrukturowane aktywności i metody potencjalizowania kontaktów społecznych. Powszechnie stosowane są także różne interwencje behawioralne, które są jednak niewystarczająco dokładnie przebadane. Wdrożenie metod niefarmakologicznych utrudniają przyzwyczajenia i przekonania oraz inne bariery mentalne, niewiedza personelu fachowego i opiekunów, a także bariery związane z systemem ochrony zdrowia i wysokimi kosztami opieki.

Purpose. The aim of this study was to investigate musculoskeletal symptoms and working conditions of university workers with and without contact with an Erggi action model. Methods. A quasi-experimental and longitudinal field study design examined effects of the Erggi action model with 3 types of questionnaires filled by 1000 university workers. The statistical analyses used logistic regression. Results. Subjects who had contact with the Erggi action model had a higher probability of weekly musculoskeletal symptoms impairing their work, perceived more possibilities to influence their musculoskeletal symptoms and had lower risk for sick leave compared to those without contact with the Erggi action model. Conclusions. The Erggi action model increases the probability of influencing workers’ musculoskeletal symptoms, decreases the number of sick leave and increases awareness of musculoskeletal symptoms and working conditions.
