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:
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.

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 word autism increasingly appears on the lips of most pedagogues, teachers and parents. Why? This disorder is more and more common today in our environment: at school, in the family. The causes of this disease are not well known yet, but there are more and more methods and ways or means of treatment that allow the child with autism to "function as normal" in the society. It is very important to diagnose and start treatment as soon as it is possible. The following article introduces the theoretical aspects of this disorder, such as the concept or symptoms, which have been thoroughly discussed and summarized in a table form.In this article have been described only some of the possible ways to work with autistic children, such as behavioral therapy, Option Method, Activity Plans, sensory integration method. Each of these methods largely supports the development of a child with autism. The article ends with a summary and the conclusion of the theoretical study.

Objectives To document if manganese from welding causes health effects including neurological symptoms associated with manganese exposure. Material and Methods An anonymous questionnaire survey for a total of 505 welders at 3 welding facilities in Qingdao City, China was administered and analyzed. Results Numerous symptoms were reported by the welders including difficulty with eyes for 43% of them, sore throat for 30% of them, and tremors were reported by over 18% of them. Tremors were associated with longer periods of work as a welder and correlated with the relative cleanliness at the 3 different facilities. Tremors did not correlate with smoking. Conclusions Manganese-exposed welders reported a variety of symptoms related to work and showed neurological disturbances that correlated with amount of exposure.

Opis:
Acute appendicitis (AA) still remains the most common acute surgical abdominal emergency. Although 90% of cases occur in children and young adults, the incidence in the elderly amounts up to 10% and is constantly rising. The aim of the study was to assess the differences between clinical presentation in the elderly patients with AA compared to the younger patients. Additional aim was to assess the correlation between in-hospital time delays and patients’ outcomes. Material and methods. We conducted a retrospective analysis of medical data of 274 patients admitted to 3rd Department of General Surgery in Cracow between January 2011 and December 2013 due to AA. The elderly group comprised 23 patients aged 65 and above and the non-elderly group consisted of 251 patients. Results. The groups did not differ in symptoms and their duration, type of surgery and its duration. However, time from admission to ED to the beginning of the procedure was significantly lower in the elderly group (575.56 vs 858.9 min; p=0.03). The elderly had longer hospital stay (6.08 vs 4.69 days; p=0.004). In the elderly group the perforation rate was close to reaching statistical significance (26.1% vs 12.4%; p=0.06). No mortality was noted in both groups and morbidity was slightly higher in elderly group (17.4% vs 10%; p=0.26). Conclusions. There was no difference in the clinical presentation between elderly and non-elderly patients group. However, elderly patients presented with a more progressed inflammation of the appendix. The hospital stay was longer in the elderly group, without any mortality and with higher rate of morbidity in this group. The length of the preoperative phase was significantly shorter, confirming the awareness of importance of time in the elderly patients with acute abdomen.

Opis:
Appropriate treatment of symptomatic carotid artery stenosis can reduce ischemic cerebral strokes' risk and in some cases eliminate neurological symptoms. Endarterectomy is the most common surgical treatment.The aim of the study was to examine the influence of carotid endarterectomy on neurological symptoms and patients' life quality.Material and methods. The material comprised of 102 patients who underwent endarterectomy. All of the patients were given a questionnaire with a list of neurological symptoms (vertigos, headaches, left hemiparesis, right hemiparesis, numbness, acroparaesthesia, single syncope, recurrent syncopies, diplopia, tinnitus, concentration disturbances and aphasia) and with a numerical life quality scale to fill in before and a year after the surgery.Results. Vertigo, headache, single and recurrent syncopies and aphasia as well as cerebral stroke and amaurosis fugax were significantly more rarely observed after endarterectomy. The mean value of patients' life quality evaluated on a 10-point Likert scale after the surgery increased (3.9 vs 6.3).Conclusions. A year after carotid endarterectomy patients' life quality improves which is connected with neurological symptoms' regression and no further symptoms' occurrence due to a preventive role of the surgery.

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.

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.

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:
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.

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:
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.

Travel to developing countries is associated with possibility to acquire different, also parasitic, diseases which have become a diagnostic and therapeutic problem. 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.

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.
