In the last decade the health of young people in Ukraine as well as in many other countries of the world significantly deteriorated according to the results of screening tests. Because of this the main task of prophylactic medicine is development and introduction of new methods of early diagnostics of diseases. The aim of the work to assess the peculiarities of adaptation of students with different types of vegetative regulation. Material and methods: 415 second year students of Lugansk State Medical University were tested. The mechanisms of physiological functions of the body regulation were assessed by registration of cardiac rhythm variability (CRV). Analysis of CRV was performed by three methods: statistical, geometrical, and spectral analysis. The express method proposed by Shlyk, N.I. (2009) was later used to determine the prevailing type of vegetative regulation. To assess adaptability the method of R.M. Baevskij (1979) was used. Results: In the result of investigation 4 types of functional states of regulatory systems were determined: I type 295 (71 %) of tested, II in 14 (3 %), III in 96 (23 %) and IV only in 10 (2%). I type of functional state of regulatory systems in the wakeful state at rest was characterized by moderate prevalence of central regulation of heart rhythm (MPCR), decreased activity of autonomic regulation. It was noticed that some of the parameters of CRV (like RR, SDNN, RMSSD and pNN50) which characterize autonomic regulation, were statistically lowere (р≤0.01) compared to type III, and some (like AMo and SI) higher, in both female and male students. Summarized spectrum capacity and components of its wave structure (HF, LF, VLF) which characterize central regulation were statistically significantly lower (р≤0.01) for the I type of regulation compared to the III one which is characterized by moderate prevalence of autonomic regulation of the heart rhythm. In female students with type I autonomic regulation compared to male students such CRV parameters as RR and AМo were statistically significantly lower (р≤0.05), while the parameters of total potency (TP) and high frequency waves (HF) were higher (р≤0.05), which could point to more centralized heart rhythm regulation in male compared to female. The evaluation of regulatory systems overstress allowed to determine the state of adaptation and risk of overstress or breakdown in students with different types of autonomic regulation. Conclusions: Thus, evaluation of adaptation state in students with different types of autonomic regulation allows to characterize the current functional state and uncover the risk of disease development., Tatiana Tananakina, Natalya Lila, Anzhelika Ivasenko, Dmitrij Bolgov, Svetlana Mavrich, Yuliya Modna, and Literatura
Cíl: Cílem této studie je poskytnout orientační normy k Addenbrookskému kognitivnímu testu (ACE‑<span class=""></span>R) a jeho jednotlivým kognitivním doménám pro českou populaci. Soubor a metodika: Do studie bylo zařazeno 143 osob (89 žen a 54 mužů) ve věku 55–<span class=""></span>89 let. Subjekty byly zástupci zdravé populace, bez onemocnění mozku, smyslové poruchy a závažného psychiatrického onemocnění, s MMSE nad 27 bodů. Osoby byly podrobeny detailnímu anamnestickému rozhovoru pro zjištění případných onemocnění mozku v minulosti a pro zjištění míry soběstačnosti v běžných denních činnostech. Osoby s poškozením mozku v anamnéze či porušenou soběstačností v běžných denních činnostech nebyly do studie zařazeny, stejně jako osoby s MMSE nižším než 27 bodů. Srovnání hodnot ACE‑<span class=""></span>R a jeho složek u mužů a žen bylo provedeno pomocí Mannova‑<span class=""></span>Whitneyova testu a srovnání hodnot u čtyř skupin daných věkem a vzděláním pomocí Kruskalova‑<span class=""></span>Wallisova testu. Výsledné p‑<span class=""></span>hodnoty byly korigovány na mnohonásobné testování užitím Bonferroniho korekce. Hraniční skóry byly vytvořeny na úrovni 2. a 7. percentilu. Výsledky: Byla prokázána negativní korelace s věkem (p < 0,001; r = –<span class=""></span>0,43) a pozitivní korelace s proměnnou vzdělání na celkový výsledek v testu (p < 0,001; r = 0,41) i v dosažených výsledcích některých jednotlivých kognitivních domén. Vliv pohlaví nebyl statistický prokázán. Hraniční skór pro všechny subjekty ve věku 55–<span class=""></span>89 na úrovni 2. percentilu je 74 bodů pro celkový skór v Addenbrookském kognitivním testu a 79 bodů na úrovni 7. percentilu. Závěr: Studie poskytuje orientační normy pro českou populaci pro Addenbrookský kognitivní test a nabízí bázi pro vytvoření kvalitních norem za předpokladu navýšení počtu subjektů., Aim: The aim of this study was to provide benchmark normal values for Addenbrooke’s cognitive examination (ACE-R) and its domains for the Czech population. Methods: The study included 143 healthy subjects (89 women and 54 men) aged 55–89 years, without brain injury, neurodegenerative disease, severe hearing or visual impairment and without a psychiatric disease, with MMSE above 27 points. Participants were interviewed in detail to ascertain any previous brain injury history and to determine the level of self-sufficiency in daily living activities. Individuals with a history of brain injury or impaired self-sufficiency were excluded from the study. ACE-R values and values for its domains in men and women were compared with Mann-Whitney test and values for the four age and education groups were compared using the Kruskal-Wallis test. P-values were corrected for multiple testing using Bonferroni correction. Results: Cut-off scores were set at 2nd and 7th percentile. Negative correlation with age (p < 0.001, r = –0.43) and positive correlation with education (p < 0.001, r = 0.41) were statistically significant for the overall test performance and also for the performance in individual cognitive domains except for the Attention and orientation domain. The effect of sex was not statistically significant. The cut-off score for the total score in Addenbrooke’s cognitive examination for all subjects aged 55–89 years is 74 points at the 2nd percentile and 79 points at the 7th percentile. Conclusion: The study suggests cut-off scores for the Czech population of ACE-R and provides the basis for the development of Czech norms for this test.
