The study aimed to investigate the role of aggression and impulsivity in smoking among male adult students. It was hypothesized that there would be significant difference between smokers and non- smokers on the traits of aggression and impulsivity. The sample of two hundred male adult students was selected from different universities of Islamabad. Two subscales of Impulsiveness and Aggression were administered to measure the personality traits of aggression and impulsivity. Descriptive statistics and t-test was calculated for analysis of data. Results showed that there is significant differences in aggression and impulsivity between smokers and non-smokers. The result can be helpful for psychologist and other professionals to plan public health therapeutic and social reengineering interventions for youth., Uzma Zaidi, and Literatura
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
Východiska: Vzhledem ke geriatrizaci ošetřovatelské péče se ageismus stává často diskutovaným tématem. Z tohoto důvodu je velmi důležité, aby nelékařští zdravotničtí pracovníci byli v tomto ohledu dostatečně vzděláváni, protože právě dostatečná informovanost a praktická zkušenost může ovlivnit míru inklinace k ageistickým postojům. Cíl: Cílem výzkumného šetření bylo zhodnotit ageistické postoje u studentů středních zdravotnických škol v závislosti na škole a ročníku, kterou respondenti navštěvovali a zjistit rozdíly ve vnímání seniorské populace. Metody: V souladu s cíli práce byl proveden kvantitativní výzkum formou dotazníkového šetření. Na základě bodového ohodnocení odpovědí v dotazníku byla zjištěna míra ageistických postojů u respondentů. Výsledky: Práce prokázala, že je statisticky významný vztah mezi ageistickými postoji u studentů a jejich příslušností ke střední škole. Stejně tak byl prokázán rozdíl mezi ageistickými postoji u studentů druhých a čtvrtých ročníků středních zdravotnických škol. Závěry: Z práce vyplývá, že ve sledovaném souboru se u většiny studentů objevuje střední inklinace k ageistickým postojům s ohledem na navštěvovanou školu. Dále pak, že k ageistickým postojům inklinují více studenti čtvrtých ročníků, kteří již absolvovali odbornou praxi u lůžka nemocného, než studenti druhých ročníků, kteří tuto praxi ještě neabsolvovali., Background: Due to geriatrization of nursing care becomes oen discussed theme. Because of this it’s very important that non-medical health staff will be enough educated. It is that sufficient awareness and practical experience that can affect the rate of inclination to ageist attitudes. Objective: e objective of this research was to evaluate ageist attitudes of nursing school students according to school which the respondents visited and find out the differences in perception of senior population among the students of second and fourth grade. Methods: Due to the aims of this work the quantitative research has been done through a questionnaire survey. e rate of ageist attitudes was observed based on scoring responses. Results: A statistically significant relationship between symptoms of ageist attitudes this work proved as well as the differences between symptoms of ageist attitudes among second and fourth grade students. Conclusions: e work shows that in the sample survey, the majority of students appearing middle inclination to the myths of old age. Furthermore, the myths of old age tend more fourth grade students who have already completed work experience at the bedside than second grade students who have not completed this practice yet., and Kristýna Šoukalová, Jana Holá, Markéta Nemšovská

K běžnému bio-psycho-sociálnímu modelu zdraví a nem oci, přidává autor ve své úvaze filosofický aspekt. Klade si otázku, proč vlastně k ritizujeme Descarta za neřešitelnou karteziánskou podvojnost těla a duše, když jde skut ečně o dvě odlišné úrovně lidského žití? K plnému porozumění člověka, jenž je charakte rizován autopoezou a svobodnou volbou, patří i pochopení a smysl, čemuž odpovídají konotativní teorie. Zde se hodí k poznání vnitřního světa a chování druhého empatie, příběhy, obrazy, přirovnání a metafory, tak je třeba chápat i psychoanalytické te orie a interpretace., The author, in his essay, adds a philosophical asp ect to the current bio-psycho-social model of health and illness. The question “Why is D escartes criticized for intractable Cartesian duality of body and soul when it is reall y two different levels of human life?” is being raised. Both understanding and sense are i nvolved in full understanding of a human being, who is characterized by autopoiesis an d free choice, with which connotative theories correspond. Empathy, stories, images, similes and metaphors suit to the knowledge of the inner world and the behavio ur of the others. It is to be even understood psychoanalytic theories and interpretati ons., Poněšický J., and Literatura
Cíl studie: zhodnocení efektivity cerkláže dle McDonalda ve Fakultní nemocnici Ostrava v období 1/2007 – 3/2014. Typ studie: retrospektivní studie Název a sídlo pracoviště: Porodnicko–gynekologická klinika, Fakultní nemocnice Ostrava Metodika: retrospektivní analýza provedených cerkláží ve Fakultní nemocnici Ostrava a rozbor výsledků takto ošetřených gravidit. Kritériem úspěšnosti byl stanoven porod po ukončeném 34. týdnu gravidity. Závěr: ve sledovaném období bylo indikováno devět cerkláží – 7 terapeutických a 2 záchranné. Výkony byly provedeny mezi 18. a 25. týdnem gravidity. Tři pacientky již měly v minulosti cerkláž provedenu. 57 % takto ošetřených těhotných porodilo po ukončeném 34. týdnu gravidity. Pouze v jednom případě (11,1 %) byla cerkláž neúspěšná a těhotenství skončilo potratem. Průměrná doba mezi provedením cerkláže a porodem činila 69 dnů., Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of cerclage according to McDonald at the University Hospital Ostrava in the period 1/2007 - 3/2014. Design: A retrospective study Obstetrics and Gynecology: Obstetrics - Gynecology, University Hospital Ostrava Methods: A retrospective analysis of cerclage performed at the University Hospital Ostrava and analysis of the results thus treated pregnancies. The criterion for success was determined after childbirth completed 34 weeks of preg - nancy. Conclusion: In the reporting period, nine indicated cerclage - 7 of therapeutic and 2 emergency. The procedures were performed between the 18th and 25th week of pregnancy. Three patients have had in the past cerclage performed. 57% of the treated pregnant women gave birth after 34 completed weeks of gestation. Only in one case (11.1 %) cerclage was unsuccessful and the pregnancy ended in a miscarriage. The average time between performing cerclage and delivery was 69 days., Petr Vašek, Igor Michalec, and Literatura
Úkolem diagnostické terminologie v jakékoli morfologické metodě je poskytnutí jednoznačně interpretovatelné informace klinickému specialistovi tak, aby mohl zvolit adekvátní terapeutický postup. Cytologická klasifikace dysplastických změn na děložním hrdle se od původní Papanicolauovy pětistupňové postupně zjednodušila na dvoustupňovou. V histopatologické rovině hodnocení se rychle prosadila fúze kategorií CIN III a CIS, další vývoj je však v porovnání s cytopatologickým hodnocením pomalejší. Navrhovaná dvoustupňová klasifikace histopatologických lézí děložního hrdla nese v sobě potenciál zpřesněné komunikace klinika a patologa ve vyhodnocování cervikálních lézí a jejich následném ošetřování. V porovnání k předchozím je plně převoditelná. Zachovává si ovšem i předchozí omezení ve vyhodnocení základního histopatologického nálezu, zejména závislost na primárně reprezentativním vzorku. Hlubší porozumění procesům karcinogeneze děložního hrdla však rozšiřuje spektrum zpřesňujících prognostických markerů a možnosti individualizovaných léčebných postupů., The function of diagnostic terminology in any morphology method is to provide information to the clinical specialist that is interpreted unequivocally and which enables him to choose the appropriate treatment. The former Papanicolaou five-tiered cytological classification of dysplastic changes on the uterine cervix has been simplified to a two-tiered approach. In the histopathological evaluation, fusion of the categories CIN III and CIS was rather smooth. Further progress toward simplification of the histopathology terminology is proceeding more slowly. The proposed two-tiered classification of the histopathological lesions of the cervix has the potential to create a more precise communication between the clinician and the pathologist in the evaluation and subsequently in the treatment of the cervical lesions. In comparison to the previous classifications, it is fully convertible. It preserves the previous limits in the evaluation of the histopathological finding, mainly the dependence on the primary representativeness of the specimen. Deeper understanding of the cervical cancerogenesis will be achieved with the increasing spectrum of prognostication markers. Thus the tailored treatment of cervical lesion will be enabled., and Jaroslava Dušková
Assaultive acts committed by people with a mental illness is a major public health issue that affects patients with their families, law enforcement authorities, and the public at large. Failure to provide treatment is in fact a major predictor of assaultive acts in patients with schizophrenia living in the community. Considering that the indigenous ethnic groups of Central Asia have similar sociocultural characteristics, these factors may be reflected in individuals with schizophrenia who have committed serious assaultive acts in Uzbekistan. Objectives: The aim of the work was to identify the sociocultural and clinical characteristics of schizophrenic representatives of indigenous ethnic groups of Central Asia who have committed violent crimes in Uzbekistan and have been found insane in regard to their offence, and to compare these subjects to ones belonging to the other ethnic groups. Material and methods: The data were collected in 2010–2013 in the Tashkent High Security Psychiatric Hospital via face-to-face interviews and also from the patients’ charts and from forensic psychiatric examination statements. Results: The sample consisted of 201 individuals. The sample was 90.1 percent (n = 181) male, with a predominance of the paranoid schizophrenia subtype according to the ICD-10 criteria. Of the subjects, 174 ones (86.6%) were representatives of the indigenous ethnic groups of Central Asia, and 27 ones (13.4%) were representatives of other ethnic groups. The duration of illness among the subjects belonging to the indigenous ethnic groups of Central Asia was less than in the other group; the individuals were rarely referred to psychiatric care because of the popularity of alternative medicine and the stigma attached to mental illness. A positive correlation between violence and various psychotic symptoms, such as delusions, hallucinations, and thought disorder, has also been demonstrated in this group. European Medical, Health and Pharmaceutical Journal ISSN 1804-5804 Conclusions: Sociocultural characteristics, such as delayed referral for psychiatric care because of the popularity of alternative medicine and the stigma attached to mental illness among the indigenous ethnic groups of Central Asia, frequently factor into committing serious acts of assault because of developing psychotic symptoms at the early stages of disease despite their sufficient socioenvironmental adaptation., Saida Yеshimbetova, Bulat Chembaev, and Literatura
The aim of our study was to determine the significance of lymphocyte-platelet adhesion (LPA), interleukins, transforming included 139 pregnant women aged between 17 and 27 years (21.3±4.22 years). GH was diagnosed in 119 women after 20 weeks of pregnancy. 20 patients (control group) were with physiological course of pregnancy. The distribution of patients by groups was carried out according to the level of blood pressure (BP) in accordance with ICD-10 (Geneva, WHO, 2002). The survey was conducted at the moment of detection pregnancy from 7 to 10 weeks and in dynamics of I, II and III trimesters of gestation. In the dynamics of gestation, were studied the number of desquamated endothelial cells circulating in the systemic circulation (CECs), nitrates levels, the adhesion of platelets by estimation their ability to form co-aggregates with lymphocytes by determining the percentage of lymphocytes aggregates with thrombocytes (lymphocyte-platelet plugs), at risk of hypertensive disorders, especially after 20-22 weeks of gestation and later, lymphocytes ability to platelets adhesion is rose, the concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines and NO level are increased. The direct relationship indicates their importance in the pathogenesis of hypertensive disorders in pregnant women., Salomat Aleksandrovna Matyakubova, and Literatura
