Introduction. In recent years there has been a significant increase in the prevalence of overweight and obesity in humans. It turns out that the problem is not limited to adults; excessive body weight is occurring in children more often. Aim. The main purpose of this work was to determine the prevalence of overweight and obesity in preschool children from the Rzeszów district, and to determine risk factors for occurrence. Materials and survey method. The study was conducted among 200 preschool children (3 - 6 years of age) from the Rzeszów poviat area. Measurements of height, weight, and determination of BMI were performed and these values are standardized according to the WHO centile grids appropriate for each age group. Survey results. Normal weight was observed in 58% of the respondents, 11% were overweight, and 10.5% were obese, whereas 20.5% of children had undernourishment. Obese children were the largest group among 6-year-olds. Among 4 year old children, abnormal body weight were more frequent in boys. On the other hand, in children aged 5 years, undernourishment or overweight was found more frequently in girls. Conclusions. The study did not confirm a significant relationship between gender, place of residence and socio-economic situation of respondents, and the prevalence of overweight or obesity. The results of this study indicate that the problem of excessive body weight refers to the increasing number of children.

Introduction: The aim of the study was to evaluate quality of life and changes in transverse abdominal muscle thickness depending on the age of patients’ subjected to physiotherapy with elements of central stabilisation. Material and methods: The study involved 35 persons divided into 2 groups: under the age of 60 (n=16, mean age 43 ± 12) and above 60 (n=19, mean age 68 ± 5 years) treated at the Whole-body Rehabilitation Unit. The aim of hospitalisation was to rehabilitate large joints in the course of osteoarthritis. All those involved in the study assessed the quality of life subjectively using the SF-36 questionnaire; ultrasound evaluation of transverse abdominal muscle thickness (TrA) was performed, and additionally, activation ratio and percentage changes in muscle thickness were determined. Results and conclusions: In the group of patients above the age of 60, the average difference in thickness of the muscle (TrA) measured between rest and contraction was 0.07±0.06 mm in exam 1, and 0.06 ±0.05 mm in exam 2. In the assessment of quality of life, the patients obtained the mean score of 103.5 ± 16.08 points and after the physiotherapy, the mean score was 93.4 ± 17.2 points. In the group of people below the age of 60, in exam 1, the average difference in the thickness of the TrA muscle measured between rest and contraction was 0.08 ± 0.06 mm and in exam 2, 0.09 ± 0.06 mm. In the assessment of quality of life, patients received an average score of 91.8 ±26.7 points in exam 1, and 86.1 ± 28.19 points in the second one. After the application of the physiotherapy programme with elements of deep muscle training, quality of life improved significantly in both groups. The TrA muscle thickness changed positively, especially in the group of people age 60 and above.
Wstep: Celem pracy była ocena jakości życia oraz zmian grubości mięśnia poprzecznego brzucha w zależności od wieku u osób poddanych fizjoterapii z elementami stabilizacji centralnej. Materiał i metody: W badaniu wzięło udział 35 osób podzielonych na dwie grupy: poniżej 60 roku życia (r.ż.) (n=16, średnia 43 ±12 lat) oraz powyżej 60 r.ż. (n=19, średnia 68 ±5 lata) leczonych na Oddziale Rehabilitacji Ogólnoustrojowej. Celem hospitalizacji była rehabilitacja w przebiegu choroby zwyrodnieniowej dużych stawów. Wszyscy włączeni do badania oceniali subiektywnie jakość życia za pomocą kwestionariusza SF-36, dokonano ultrasonograficznej oceny grubości mięśnia poprzecznego brzucha (TrA), dodatkowo wyznaczono współczynnik aktywacji oraz procentowe zmiany grubości mięśnia. Wyniki i wnioski: W grupie chorych powyżej 60 r.ż. w badaniu I średnia różnica w grubości mięśnia TrA mierzona między spoczynkiem, a skurczem wyniosła 0,07 ±0,06 mm., w II badaniu 0,06 ±0,05 mm. W ocenie jakości życia pacjenci uzyskali średni wyniki 103,5 ±16,08 pkt. a po zastosowanej fizjoterapii średni wynik wyniósł 93,4 ±17,2 pkt. W grupie osób poniżej 60 r. ż. w I badaniu średnia różnica w grubości mięśnia TrA mierzona między spoczynkiem a skurczem wyniosła 0,08 ±0,06 mm a badaniu II 0,09 ±0,06 mm. W ocenie jakości życia pacjenci uzyskali średni wynik 91,8 ±26,7 pkt. w I badaniu a w kolejnym 86,1 ±28,19 pkt. Po zastosowaniu programu fizjoterapii z elementami treningu mięśni głębokich w obydwu grupach badanych jakość życia uległa wyraźnej poprawie. Korzystnie zmieniła się grubość mięśnia TrA, szczególnie w grupie osób powyżej 60 r.ż.

The purpose of the paper is to analyze the spatial variability of precipitation in Poland in the years 1981–2010. The average annual rainfall was 607 mm. Precipitation in Poland is characterized by high spatial and temporal variability. The lowest annual precipitation was recorded in the central part of the country, where they equaled 500 mm. The highest annual precipitation totals were determined in the south, equaling 970 mm. The average precipitation in the summer half-year is 382 mm (63% of the annual total). On the basis of data from 53 climate stations, maps were made of the spatial distribution of precipitation for the period of the year and winter and summer half-year. The kriging method was used to map rainfall distribution in Poland. In the case study, cross-validation was used to compare the prediction performances of three periods. Kriging, with exponential type of semivariogram, gave the best performance in the statistical sense. Their application is justices especially in areas where landform is very complex. In accordance with the assumptions, the mean prediction error (ME), mean standardized prediction error (MSE), and root mean-square standardized prediction error (RMSSE) values are approximately zero, and root-mean-square prediction error (RMSE) and average standard error (ASE) reach values well below 100.

Introduction. In today’s world, tobacco is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality and is associated with unhealthy behavior. Poland is among the countries with high rates of smoking, and occurrence of tobacco related diseases. Tobacco use by children and adolescents is a serious public health problem because of the immediate and long-lasting harmful effects on health. A large group of current smokers begin smoking during youth. The goal of the work was to culturally and linguistically adapt, and test and pre-evaluate a Polish version of the National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS), which identifies and monitors trends in tobacco use among young people. Materials and methods. The test was administered by a test-retest method in 2015 with participation of 47 (25 girls and 22 boys) people aged 17–18. Respondents filled out the questionnaire twice within two weeks. The compliance percentage of individual test items and correlations between individual items in repeated measurements were evaluated. Results. More than seventy percent have reliability ratios at very high or high levels with twenty five percent at moderate levels. Conclusion. The tested Polish version of the NYTS questionnaire may be used in adolescent studies.

Opis:
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency is a rare defect of the first step of the pyrimidine catabolic pathway. Patients with a complete enzyme deficiency may be clinically asymptomatic or suffer from neurological abnormalities of various severity. We report a case of an 8-year-old girl with psychomotor retardation and mild course of the disease. Analysis of urine showed strongly elevated levels of uracil and thymine, and no DPD activity could be detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Sequence analysis of the DPD gene (DPYD) revealed that our patient was homozygous for the common splice-site mutation IVS14+1G > A, which suggest that the carrier status for this mutation may be not rare in the Polish population.

The aim of the study was to determine the level of functional independence in adult patients with previously undiagnosed or untreated phenylketonuria (PKU). The study was conducted among 400 intellectually impaired adult residents of Social Welfare Homes in South-Eastern Poland born prior to the introduction of neonatal PKU screening programs. PKU was screened by filter paper test using tandem mass spectrometry methods, and confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometric analysis of PKU organic acids in urine. Degree of functional independence included the assessment of activities of daily living (Barthel Index) and measures of balance and gait (Tinetti scale). Eleven individuals with previously untreated PKU were identified whereby eight presented with moderate disability and three with mild disability. Six had a high risk of falls and five had a moderate risk of falls. This study indicates that there is considerable number of undiagnosed PKU patients within the Polish population who require assessment and management in order to reduce the impact of the neurological and neuropsychiatric problems associated with the condition. Appropriate therapy for those with undiagnosed PKU should, in particular, address the risk of falls.

Introduction. According to epidemiologic research, the number of obese and overweight children is increasing. A common way of dealing with this problem is enacting legislation regarding food served in educational institutions. In Poland, the regulations regarding the assortment of school shops are contained in the Ordinance of the Minister of Health of 26th June 2015 (and its subsequent amendments). Aim. The main aim of this study is to evaluate the product range of school shops and vending machines in Rzeszów. Methods and materials. The study covered 52 primary and secondary schools in Rzeszów. The schools included in the study had 15568 students altogether. Products bought by students in school shops and vending machines were recorded over the period of 3 days. Results. The study has shown a statistically significant relationship (p <0.001) between the amount and types of products bought in primary and secondary schools. Healthy snacks only made up a small percentage of products sold. Secondary schools sold 20% more snacks with high sugar content compared to primary schools. A majority of products sold were compliant with regulations (p=0.12). Conclusions. The assortment of school shops has changed after the implementation of the Ordinance of the Minister of Health of 26 June 2015 (and its subsequent amendments). The newly introduced restrictions significantly narrowed down the range of products offered in schools, reducing the number of products containing more than 15g of sugar (13.5g per 100g/ml in case of dairy products) or 10g of fat per portion.

Introduction. Supracondylar fracture of the humerus is the most common type of distal humeral fracture in children. Either operative or non-operative treatment depends on Gartland’s classification and neurovascular damage. There is still room for discussion on which Kirschner pin’s configuration should be chosen – crossed pinning or lateral pinning. Aim. Our study aimed to compare clinical results of treating supracondylar humeral fractures in children with cross and lateral pinning. We also aimed to assess the correlation between sociodemographic data and clinical results. Materials and methods. 75 patients aged less than 18 years, operated for supracondylar humeral fracture between September 2010 and June 2021 were retrospectively analysed. Two treatment modalities were studied for comparison – crossed pinning and lateral pinning. Results. Crossed pinning was performed in 62 patients (82.7%) and lateral pinning in 13 patients (17.3%). The mean age during trauma was 6.83 years (2-14). There was a significantly higher incidence (p = 0.03) of current complaints in the group treated from the side compared to the group treated crosswise (54% vs 32% of patients reported current complaints, respectively). There were no relevant differences observed between the type of fixation and the following studied parameters: current VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) pain score, Baumann angle of the operated limb, flexion deficit in the elbow joint of the operated limb, presence of current neurological complications, satisfaction with the current function of the limb, Flynn criteria, and Mayo Elbow Score. Conclusions. The discussion in the literature addressing the superiority of lateral or crossed pinning of supracondylar humeral fractures in children still exists. Both methods provide excellent clinical and functional results.
Wstęp. Złamanie nadkłykciowe jest najczęstszym rodzajem złamania końca dalszego kości ramiennej u dzieci. W zależności od klasyfikacji Gartlanda i obecności uszkodzeń nerwowo-naczyniowych stosuje się leczenie operacyjne lub nieoperacyjne. Tematem do dyskusji pozostaje to która metoda stabilizacji daje lepsze wyniki – wprowadzanie drutów Kirschnera od boku czy na krzyż. Cel. Celem naszej pracy było przedstawienie i porównanie wyników leczenia złamań nadkłykciowych z podziałem na powyższe metody oraz ocena korelacji między danymi socjo-demograficznymi, a wynikiem leczenia. Materiał i metody. Analizie retrospektywnej poddano 75. chorych w wieku poniżej 18 lat, operowanych z powodu złamania nadkłykciowego kości ramiennej w okresie od września 2010 do czerwca 2021. W celu porównania zbadano dwie metody leczenia – stabilizację metodą od boku oraz na krzyż. Wyniki. Stabilizację metodą na krzyż wykonano u 62 chorych (82,7%), od boku u 13 (17,3%). Średni wiek w czasie urazu wynosił 6,83 lat (2-14). Wystąpiła istotnie większa częstość (p = 0,03) aktualnych dolegliwości w grupie leczonej metodą od boku w porównaniu z grupą leczoną metodą krzyżową (odpowiednio 54% vs. 32% chorych). Nie zaobserwowano istotnych różnic pomiędzy rodzajem stabilizacji, a następującymi badanymi parametrami: aktualna ocena bólu w skali VAS (Visual Analogue Scale), kąt Baumanna, deficyt zgięcia w stawie łokciowym operowanej kończyny, obecność aktualnych powikłań neurologicznych, zadowolenie z aktualnej funkcji kończyny, kryteria Flynna i Mayo Elbow Score. Wnioski. W piśmiennictwie nadal trwa dyskusja na temat wyższości bocznego lub krzyżowego stabilizowania złamań nadkłykciowych kości ramiennej u dzieci. Obie metody zespalania dają dobre wyniki kliniczne i funkcjonalne.

Opis:
Otyłość wśród dzieci i młodzieży jest coraz większym problemem zdrowotnym w XXI wieku. Reklamy żywności o wysokiej wartości energetycznej i ubogiej w składniki odżywcze mogą wpływać na wybory konsumentów. Celem badania była analiza wartości kalorycznej wszystkich reklamowanych produktów żywnościowych, skierowanych do dzieci w trzech stacjach telewizyjnych. Metody: Nagrano wszystkie programy emitowane w trzech kanałach telewizyjnych (TVP1, Polsat, Cartoon Network), w ciągu czterech dni każdego tygodnia (przez okres od września do października). Emitowane reklamy zostały przeanalizowane w celu określenia liczby reklamowanych produktów żywnościowych. Następnie zakupiono reklamowane produkty i obliczono ich wartość energetyczną. Wyniki: Średnia wartość kaloryczna reklamowanych produktów żywnościowych, skierowanych do dzieci wahała się od 1700 kcal/ dzień w stacji Cartoon Network do 33000 kcal/ dzień w telewizji Polsat. Reklamowaną żywność stanowiły głównie przekąski i produkty typu fast-food, o wysokiej zawartości tłuszczów i cukru. Średnia wartość kaloryczna reklamowanego produktu żywnościowego wyniosła 500 kcal na 100g. Wnioski: w reklamach telewizyjnych skierowanych do dzieci, promuje się głównie żywność o wysokiej wartości energetycznej, ubogą w składniki odżywcze. Taka promocja może wpływać na zachowanie konsumentów i tym samym wpływać na nadmierne spożycie wysokokalorycznych produktów żywnościowych.
Obesity among children and adolescents is a growing health problem in the twenty-first century. The marketing of energydense nutrient-low foods via television advertising likely affects consumer choice. Successful advertising can give added value to products and may influence the viewer’s perception regarding the nutritional value and energy content of the advertised food. The aim of the study was to analyze the caloric content of all food-products advertised to children on three television stations. Methods: All programmes broadcast on three television channels (TVP1; Polsat and Cartoon Network) were recorded on four days of each week for a 24-hour period. Advertisements were analyzed to determine the number of food. The advertised products were then purchased and the calorific value was recorded. Results: The average caloric value of advertising for children ranged from 1700 kcal per day on the Cartoon Network to 33000 kcal per day on Polsat TV. The main ads targeting children were for snack and fast-food products with high levels of fat and sugar and an average caloric value of 500 kcal per 100g. Conclusions: TV advertising aimed at child viewers promotes mainly energy-dense and nutrient-poor products. The promotion of such products may have an impact on consumer behavior and in turn influence the intake of excessive calories.

Opis:
The aim of this paper is a straightforward presentation of the steroidogenesis process and the most common type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) - 21-hydroxylase deficiency - as well as the analytical diagnostic methods that are used to recognize this disease. CAH is a family of common autosomal recessive disorders characterized by impaired adrenal cortisol biosynthesis with associated androgen excess due to a deficiency of one or more enzymes in the steroidogenesis process within the adrenal cortex. The most common and prototypical example of the CAH disorders group (90-95%) is caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Less frequent types of CAH are 11β-hydroxylase deficiency (up to 8% of cases), 17α-hydroxylase deficiency, 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency, P450 oxidoreductase deficiency and StAR deficiencies. In the 21-hydroxylase and 11β-hydroxylase deficiency, only adrenal steroidogenesis is affected, whereas a defect in 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase or 17α-hydroxylase also involves gonadal steroid biosynthesis. Many countries have introduced newborn screening programs based on immunoassays measuring 17-hydroxyprogesterone from blood spots used for other neonatal screening tests which enable faster diagnosis and treatment of CAH. Currently, chromatographic techniques coupled with mass spectrometry are gaining popularity due to an increase in the reliability of the test results.

Introduction. Obesity in children and adolescents is a growing problem in the 21st century. The epidemic of chronic non-communicable diseases resulting from obesity is currently one of the biggest problems of modern medicine. Excessive body weight is the result of a long-lasting imbalance between the amount of energy supplied and its expenditure. Energy regulation of the body is subject to both genetic and environmental factors. Among other things, due to this, the problem of excessive body weight is most severe in societies with a high degree of socio-economic development. The aim of this paper is to determine the influence of selected environmental and social factors on the occurrence of overweight and obesity in pre-school children. Material and methods. The study included pre-school children from south-eastern Poland. After obtaining the consent from parents, 200 children (87 boys, 113 girls) aged 3 to 6 years were examined. A questionnaire used for the research was derived from the program: European Pilot Study Evaluating the Influence of Local Promotional Activities on Prevention of Obesity in Pre-school Children. In the subjects, body weight was measured on an electronic scale three times and the body height was measured three times using a stadiometer. Obesity was determined according to the criteria developed by the International Obesity Task Force (IOTF). Results. The prevalence of overweight and obesity among children amounted to 6.4% in 3-year-olds, 11.3% in 4-year-olds, 17.7% in 5-year-olds, and 20.7% in 6-year-olds. A factor significantly increasing the risk of obesity among the examined girls and boys was the mother’s BMI index. Conclusion. Although knowledge about the factors that promote overweight and obesity is common, it is still a common health problem. Particular attention should be paid to the prevention of obesity in children of parents with a BMI above 30 kg m2. Early maternal education can change the lifestyle of the whole family.

Opis:
Introduction. Cerebral palsy (CP) is a problem presenting multiple issues and the prevalence of this condition is quite significant. CP risk factors are mainly observed in prematurely born children as well as those affected by complications around the time of birth or during the period of mother’s pregnancy. Quite frequently CP is manifested by abnormal muscle tone, contractures and deformities, and consequently impaired fine and gross motor functions. Aim. The study was designed to examine the level of hand function, i.e. fine motor skills and to investigate whether there is a correlation between development of fine motor and gross motor functions. Material and methods. The study group included 80 children with infantile CP. In the group there were 24 cases with spastic diplegia, 36 with spastic hemiplegia, and 20 with bilateral hemiplegia. During the study the children performed Box and Blocks test, and their parents filled in Manual Ability Classification System (MACS) describing the level of fine motor function development in their children. The children were additionally asked to perform two motor tasks. The first one involved an attempt to assume position on all fours, and the other one checked the ability to assume and maintain standing position. Results. The best scores in the conducted tests were found in children with CP taking the form of spastic diplegia, and the poorest scores in MACS, Box and Blocks test as well as in motor tasks assessing gross motor function were observed in children with bilateral hemiplegia. Conclusion. The form of infantile CP affects the level of manual abilities. There is a correlation between the level of gross motor and fine motor functions development.

Opis:
The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of selected factors, such as: gender, age, stroke type, side of paresis, time to initiation of rehabilitation, first or successive in-patient rehabilitation and severity of paresis at admission on the final clinical status of patients and on the outcome of treatment at the department of rehabilitation, district hospital.Material and methods: All 431 post-stroke patients qualified for the treatment at the department of rehabilitation between January 2002 and December 2003 were included in the study. Patients were divided into four age groups. Results of rehabilitation were analyzed in male and female groups separately. Patients were divided according to the stroke type into four groups either suffering from an ischaemic or a hemorrhagic stroke; another selection cirterion was left-sided vs. right-sided paresis. The so-called general fitness, Barthel Index and Brunnström test were used to evaluate clinical status of the patients and the progress of rehabilitation. Statistical analysis was carried out using the t-test or – alternatively – the non-parametric Wilcoxon signed rank test, analysis of variance (ANOVA) or the nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test, and the chi-square test.Results: Based on the obtained results, it was proven that multidimensional, complex rehabilitation in a specialist centre, carried out by rehabilitation team resulted in significant improvement of post-stroke patients’ clinical status. The improvement was observed for all measurements of fitness used in the study. Analysis of the effects of rehabilitation with regard to patients’ age indicated that an improvement in general fitness, motor activity (reduction of paresis) and independency in activities of daily living was obtained in each age group. Based on the analysis conducted in groups of patients with different stroke aetiologies, it was found that effects of the treatment in patients with haemorrhagic stroke were better than in patients with ischaemic stroke, which was observed in each of the applied measures used for the evaluation of patients’ clinical status. Mean improvement observed after the treatment was greater in patients with right-sided paresis than in patients with left-sided paresis. Gender had no significant effect on the extent of rehabilitation results.Conclusions: Results of the study indicate that in post-stroke patients, gender, advanced age, stroke location, stroke type or motor skills at admission do not constitute a criterion determining the possibility of conducting rehabilitation procedures.
