Neurovědy, které se stále častěji zabývají vztahem mezi psychickou a mozkovou činností, vedly v posledních letech ke vzniku nových oborů: neuroe pigenetiky , neuropsychologi , neuropsychoanalýz y, a dokonce i neurofilosofie. V této stati diskutuji koncept neuropsychosomatiky., Neurosciences, which have been increasingly concern ed with and brain activity, in recent years have led to the emergence of new disciplines: neuroepigenetics, neuropsychology, neuoropsychother apy, neurop neurophilosophy. In this paper I am discussing the concept of neuropsychosomatics., and Poněšický J.
Ačkoliv konvenční techniky zobrazení magnetickou rezonancí mají dominantní postavení při vyšetření centrálního nervového systému, přesto tyto techniky nedokážou dát informaci o funkčních vlastnostech mozkové tkáně. Kromě konvenčních MR technik však existují i MR metody umožňující některé z těchto vlastností zobrazit. Mezi ně můžeme zařadit funkční magnetickou rezonanci, difuzně vážené zobrazování, resp. zobrazení difuzního tenzoru a morfometrickou analýzu. Tento článek podává přehled fyzikálních základů zmíněných MR metod a jejich využití ve výzkumu a klinické praxi., Although conventional MR imaging techniques play a crucial role in the examination of the central nervous system, these techniques can not give any information about functional properties of the brain tissue. Besides conventional MRI techniques, however, there are some MR methods enabling evaluation of these functional properties. These methods include functional magnetic resonance imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging or diffusion tensor imaging, and voxel based morphometry This article presents the basic physical concepts of the above-mentioned MR techniques and the, and Ibrahim Ibrahim, Jaroslav Tintěra
Cíl studie: Vyhodnotit přínos interleukinu-6 u těžké akutní pankreatitidy pro odlišení sterilní nekrózy (SN) a nekrózy infikované (IN). Typ studie: Retrospektivní deskriptivní observační studie série případů. Metody: Ve vlastní práci bylo zahrnuto 59 pacientů hospitalizovaných s těžkou akutní pankreatitidou (Atlantská klasifikace 1992) na chirurgickém oddělení Nemocnice Písek v průběhu sedmi let. Pravidelně byly vyšetřovány C-reaktivní protein (CRP) a interleukin-6 (IL-6), přičemž dostatečná data byla u 42 pacientů: 14 s IN (průkaz mikrobiologicky či dle CT), 28 se SN. Statistické vyhodnocení pomocí Fisherova testu a chí-kvadrát testu. Výsledky: Byla nalezena statisticky významná diskriminační schopnost denních průměrů IL-6 5. a 6., resp. 7. a 8. den hospitalizace mezi IN a SN (p=0,0014 pro den 5 a 6, resp. p=0,0009 pro den 7 a 8). Rozvoj IN reálně nastával nejčastěji mezi 5. a 9. dnem (mikrobiologický průkaz agens či nepochybné CT známky infekce). CRP tuto schopnost diskriminace neprokázalo, jeho hladiny byly od 2. do 8. dne setrvale výrazně zvýšeny. Charakteristický byl průběh koncentrací IL-6, kdy vstupně byla přítomna výrazná elevace nezávislá na pozdějším rozvoji IN a již od druhého dne hospitalizace došlo k výraznému poklesu. K dalšímu vzestupu IL-6 došlo pouze u pacientů s rozvojem IN. Pro cut-off (diskriminace IN a SN) IL-6 (platný od 5. dne hospitalizace) 100 ng/l bylo p<0,005, pro 150 ng/l p<0,01. Závěr: Interleukin-6 v naší retrospektivní studii prokázal statisticky významnou schopnost diskriminovat infikovanou a sterilní nekrózu u těžké akutní pankreatitidy. Překročení cut-off IL-6 od 5. dne hospitalizace svědčilo pro přítomnost infikované nekrózy. Cut-off 100 ng/l diskriminoval obdobně (p<0,005, senzitivita 100 %, specificita 92 %) jako cut-off 150 ng/l (p<0,01, senzitivita 87 %, specificita 100 %)., Objective: Our retrospective study aimed to evaluate the contribution of interleukin-6 in severe acute pancreatitis. Mortality of severe acute pancreatitis ranges from 10-20% (for sterile necrosis, SN) to 20-85% (infected necrosis, IN). Resolution of SN and IN is clinically very important, but often difficult and therefore they are still searching for new laboratory markers for their differentiation. Design: Retrospective descriptive observational study of cases series. Methods: 59 patients hospitalized with severe acute pancreatitis (Atlanta classification 1992) in the surgery department of Hospital Písek in the 2000-2006 were included. Regularly they were investigated by C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin- 6 (IL-6), sufficient data was in 42 patients: 14 with IN (identified microbiologically or according to computed tomography, CT), 28 with SN. Statistical analysis was performed using Fisher‘s test and chi-square test. Results: There was found statistically significant discriminatory ability of daily averages of IL-6 5th and 6th + 7th and 8th day of hospitalization between the IN and SN (p = 0.0014 for day 5 and 6, respectively. p = 0.0009 for day 7 and 8). Developing IN realistically set in the most between 5th and 9th day (needle biopsy with identification of microbiological agents or CT signs of infection). The ability of CRP to discriminate SN and IN was not found, the levels were between 2nd to 8th days increased steadily. The run of the concentrations of IL-6 was characteristic, where at the admission there was present significant elevation irrespective of subsequent development of IN and from the second day of hospitalization it decreased significantly. Further increase in IL-6 was present only in patients with the development of IN. For the cut-off (discrimination of SN and IN) for IL-6 (valid from 5th of hospitalization) 100 ng/L was P<0.005, for 150 ng/L P<0.01. Conclusion: Interleukin-6 in our retrospective study showed a statistically significant ability to discriminate between infected and sterile necrosis in severe acute pancreatitis. For the cut-off of IL-6 effective from 5th day of hospitalization 100 ng/L was P <0.005, for 150 ng/L was P<0.01., and Malina P., Cejp V., Jabor A.
Autoři ve svém příspěvku uvádějí první výsledky šetření, které bylo zaměřeno na zjištění hmotností školních tašek chlapců a dívek 1. a 2. tříd základních škol v olomouckém regionu. Celkem byla zjištěna hmotnost u 502 školních tašek, změřeno 502 dětí (263 dívek a 239 chlapců). Z výsledků měření je zřejmé, že hmotnost tašky se zvyšuje s postupem žáků do vyšší třídy. Největší rozdíl mezi minimální a maximální hodnotou hmotnosti tašky byl zjištěn u 8letých dívek, činil 8,9 kg. Výsledky ukázaly, že procentuální podíl hmotnosti tašky doporučeným 10 % tělesné hmotnosti dítěte odpovídal pouze u 17,5 % dětí. 82,5 % dětí pak nosí aktovky těžké (10–20 %), přičemž 18,3 % dětí nosí aktovky o hmotnosti nad 20 % své tělesné hmotnosti, což už lze považovat za extrémně těžké. Nepřiměřená hmotnost školní tašky pak může ovlivňovat držení těla a výskyt bolesti zad., Effects of the weights of school bags carried by pupils from the first two classes of primary schools in the Olomouc region (502 schoolbags belonging to 263 girls and 239 boys) on the pupils’ posture were examined. The weight of the schoolbags of pupils from the 2nd year class was found to be higher than of pupils in the first year. The greatest difference between minimum and maximum weights (8.9 kilograms) was detected in the schoolbags of 8 year old girls. Only 17.5% of children carried bags that were within the recommended 10% of the child’s body weight. Thus, 82.5% of the children carry heavier bags and 18.3% of these pupils carry extremely heavy bags (over 20% of their body weight).We conclude that the excessive weight of school bags contributes to poor posture and backache amongst these children., Hana Kabátová, Miroslav Kopecký, Dana Strnisková, Jitka Tomanová, and Literatura 5
The reactivating and therapeutic efficacy of two combinations of oximes (HI‑6 + trimedoxime and HI‑6 + K203) was compared with the effectiveness of antidotal treatment involving single oxime (HI‑6, trimedoxime, K203) using in vivo methods. In vivo determined percentage of reactivation of cyclosarin‑inhibited blood and tissue acetylcholinesterase in poisoned rats showed that the reactivating efficacy of both combinations of oximes is slightly higher than the reactivating efficacy of the most effective individual oxime in blood, diaphragm as well as in brain. Moreover, both combinations of oximes were found to be slightly more efficacious in the reduction of acute lethal toxic effects in cyclosarin‑poisoned mice than the antidotal treatment involving single oxime. Based on the obtained data, we can conclude that the antidotal treatment involving chosen combinations of oximes brings a beneficial effect for its ability to counteract the acute poisoning with cyclosarin., Jiří Kassa, Jana Zdarová Karasová, Růžena Pavlíková, Filip Caisberger, Jiří Bajgar, and Literatura 36
The Purpose of the study: define the indications and contraindications to, combined operation in locally invasive tumor of the rectum. The Material and methods of the study: we have analysed results combined operation in cancer of the rectum with germination in genital organs, performed in department of coloproctology in National Oncological Scientific centre during 20052009 years. Under observation were 118 women at age from 21 to 68 years. This before 45 years 26 patients, from 46 to 59 years 54 patients, 60 and above years. The Results and their discussion: Postoperative complications suppurativeinflammatory character appeared beside 36 patients (30,5%), most of all after abdomeno perineal extirpation of rectum (35,5%) and abdominoanal resection of the rectum (33,3%). In lesser extend after front resection of the rectum and after operation Hartman (28,5% and 22,7%). The General lethality has formed 3,4%, have died after combined operation 4 patients from 118 operated patients. The Conclusion: thereby, brought data evident that such important factors, as frequency of the origin relapse (28%), 5year probability of survival (37,1%), under combined interference and operation of the standard volume in the cancer of the rectum practically the same., H.

The Material of the study has formed 78 sick, found on stationary treatment in Republican Scientific Centre Coloproktologii since 1992 on 2010. As it is seen, from table, from 78 sick mans was 58(74,3%), womans 20(25,7%). 19(24,3), sick were at age from 15 before 20 years, 49(60,2%) at age from 21 before 40 years and 13 (16,6%) sick from 41 before 60 years. The Main complaint sick at arrival were a stubborn constipations, which noted beside 70 (89,7%) sick, including absence of the independent chair existed beside 55(70,5%), but beside 54(69,2%) sick were noted periodic stomachache, growing on measure of the absence of the chair. The Ballooned belly existed beside all 78 (100%) sick moreover beside 20(25,6%) of them flatulence was constant. The Sickness and retching existed beside 24(30,7%), weakness, reduction to capacity to work beside 52(66,6%), increasing of the temperature of the body beside 10(12,8%), paradoxical diarrhoeas beside 6(7,6%) sick. Endoskopicheskiy method (rectoromonoscopy, colonoscopy) turned out to be else less informations 51,8% coincidences of the diagnosis. So we biopsy on Svensonu executed beside all sick, entered with suspicion on disease Girshprunga. In our observations from 78 sick beside 42(53,8,1%) were aboveanalni, beside 20(25,6%) sick rectalis, beside 13(16,6%)rectosigmoideys , beside 2(2,5%) leftside and beside 1(1,2%) sick subtotalis form hipoganglios. At biopsies on Svensonu on observations, from 78 sick, beside 44(56,4%) is revealled hipoganglios, but beside 35(44,8%) аganglios rectum. As can be seen from presented tables, from 78 sick beside 68(87,2%) us is executed onemoments radical operation, 10(12,8%) sick is as far as possible made resection hipoor aganglionarnaya of the zone, decompensate part of the large intestine and is formed colostomy. In all events at operations. The Remote results executed radical operation on cause disease Girshprunga traced from 1 before 10 years beside 57(73%) sick. The Results of the surgical treatment were valued on scale Vezika: good, satisfactory and unsatisfactory. In our observations beside 46(80,7%) sick results came in well, beside 10(17,5%) satisfactory and beside 1(1,8%) sick was an unsatisfactory result., Mirzahmedov M. M., Ahmedov M. A., Sapaev D.

Introduction: We studied influence of mud-bath on bone status in male Wistar rats with subchronic arthritis. Methods: Arthritis was induced by 2 subplantar injections of Freund’s adjuvans with heat-killed Streptoccocus pyogenes into paw. Groups: intact (int) on chippings; (con) arthritis on chippings; (san38) arthritis on hot sand; (mu38) arthritis on hot mud; (mu21) arthritis on mild mud. Bone mineral density (BMD, g/cm2) was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry and femurs were tested biomechanically. Bone markers osteocalcin (OC), PINP and CTX were analysed in bone. Results: BMD of right femur decreased vs. left in san38 (p = 0.030) and mu38 (p = 0.047). Fracture load of right/left femur (N) decreased in experimental groups, significantly in san38 (p = 0.05). Fracture threshold of neck decreased in right vs. left in experimental groups, but significantly in san38 (p = 0.05). OC decreased in mu38 vs. con (1.84 ± 0.14/2.62 ± 0.23). PINP decreased in int vs. san38 (p = 0.005) and mu21 (p < 0.001). CTX decreased in int vs. mu38 (p = 0.006) and mu21 (p = 0.005). Conclusion: The hot bath appears indifferent in relation to osteoporosis, while cold mud-bath shows good effect on bone metabolism. The cold mud-baths help to reduce arthritic inflammation and pain and thereby lead to higher mobility with positive consequence on bone., Helena Živná, Ljiljana Maric, Iveta Gradošová, Klára Švejkovská, Soňa Hubená, Pavel Živný, and Literatura 19
Few studies concerning the importance of wheat allergy affecting the course of atopic eczema in adolescents and adult patients exist. Aim: The evaluation if wheat allergy can deteriorate the course of atopic eczema. Follow-up of patients with confirmed food allergy to wheat. Method: Altogether 179 persons suffering from atopic eczema were included in the study: 51 men and 128 women entered the study with an average age of 26.2 (s.d. 9.5 years) Dermatological and allergological examinations were performed, including skin prick tests, atopy patch tests, and specific serum IgE for wheat, open exposure test and double-blind, placebo-controlled food challenge test with wheat flour. Results: Wheat allergy affecting the coures of atopic eczema was confirmed in eight patients (4.5%) out of 179 patients enrolled in this study by double-blind, placebo controlled food challenge test. The course of atopic eczema showed a positive trend in patients with confirmed food allergy at 3, 6, 9, 12 month follow-up (statistical evaluation with paired t-test) after the elimination of wheat flour. Conclusion: Wheat allergy may play an important role in the worsening of atopic eczema (acting as a triggering exacerbating factor) only in a minority of adolescents and adult patients (4.5% in our study). The diagnostic methods (skin prick test, specific IgE, atopy patch test, history) cannot be used as separated tests for the determination of food allergy to wheat in patients with atopic eczema.Open exposure tests and double-blind, placebo-controlled food challenge should be used for the confirmation of wheat allergy affecting the course of atopic eczema., Jarmila Čelakovská, Květuše Ettlerová, Karel Ettler, Jaroslava Vaněčková, Josef Bukač, and Literatura 34
