Utilization of limnocrenic karst springs in south-western Poland in balneotherapy and spa healthcare
2015
Polska należy do krajów bogatych w wodę i ten zasób może być z powodzeniem stosowany w celach leczniczych, jak również w przemyśle spożywczym, chemicznym i grzewczym. Do obszarów o dużym znaczeniu perspektywicznym posiada, m.in. Śląsk Opolski w południowo-zachodniej Polsce, należący częściowo do prowincji Sudetów, która biegnie wzdłuż południowych granic Polski, Czech i Niemiec. Do tej pory obszar ten był znany z wysoko zmineralizowanych kwaśnych wód termalnych z Grabina koło Grodkowa, które są planowane do wykorzystania dla celów leczniczych w lecznictwie uzdrowiskowym. Podczas badań hydrologicznych prowadzonych na Śląsku Opolskim w latach 2010–2015, stwierdzono obecność nieznanych, średni…
Obywatel a władza lokalna w pierwszym powojennym dziesięcioleciu na przykładzie gminy Kościeliska
2015
Artykuł poświęcony jest relacjom między władzą lokalną a obywatelem w pierwszym powojennym dziesięcioleciu w gminie Kościeliska, pow. oleski. Na początku autor charakteryzuje gminę, następnie podaje przykłady tych relacji na tle ówczesnej sytuacji politycznej, społecznej i gospodarczej. Najwięcej uwagi poświęca udziałowi i zaangażowaniu obywateli w działalność silnie upartyjnionych organów władzy lokalnej oraz w podejmowanych przez władze gminne wysiłkom na rzecz rozwiązania trudnych problemów społecznych i gospodarczych, z którymi borykała się ludność gminy. Władze gminne miały jednak ograniczone możliwości rozwiązania tych problemów, co skutkowało bardzo złymi nastrojami społecznymi, któr…

Serum interleukin 15 in anorexia nervosa: Comparison to normal weight and obese girls
2019
Background: Interleukin 15 (IL-15) plays a key role in the muscle-fat interaction, reducing adipose tissue mass without changes in the lean body mass and reduction of food intake. Here we assess serum IL-15 levels in girls with anorexia nervosa (AN) relative to obese and normal weight female adolescents.Methods: Serum IL-15 concentrations were evaluated using a commercially available ELISA kit in 32 Polish girls with restrictive AN, 29 girls with obesity (O), and 21 healthy controls (C). Anthropometric measurements (weight, height, BMI) and laboratory assays (serum fasting glucose, insulin, HOMA-IR, total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, and C-reactive protein (CRP)) were performed.Res…
Levosimendan in the treatment of patients with acute cardiac conditions: an expert opinion of the Association of Intensive Cardiac Care of the Polish…
2020
Levosimendan is a new inodilator which involves 3 main mechanisms: increases the calcium sensitivity of cardiomyocytes, acts as a vasodilator due to the opening of potassium channels, and has a cardioprotective effect. Levosimendan is mainly used in the treatment of acute decompensated heart failure (class IIb recommendation according to the European Society of Cardiology guidelines). However, numerous clinical trials indicate the validity of repeated infusions of levosimendan in patients with stable heart failure as a bridge therapy to heart transplantation, and in patients with accompanying right ventricular heart failure and pulmonary hypertension. Due to the complex mechanism of action,…
Biodegradable polymer-coated thin strut sirolimus- -eluting stent versus durable polymer-coated everolimus-eluting stent in the diabetic population.
2021
Background: The number of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) presenting with coronary artery disease is increasing and accounts for more than 30% of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). The biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stents were developed to improve vascular healing. It was sought herein, to determine 1-year clinical follow-up in patients with DM treated with the thin strut biodegradable polymer-coated sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) versus durable coating everolimus-eluting stent (DP-EES). Methods: Patients were retrospectively analyzed with DM were treated with either a BP-SES (ALEX™, Balton, Poland, n = 670) or a DP-EES (XIENCE™, Abbott, USA, n = 884)…
Mechanical circulatory support. An expert opinion of the Association of Intensive Cardiac Care and the Association of Cardiovascular Interventions of…
2021
Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) methods are used in patients with both acute and chronic heart failure, who have exhausted other options for pharmacological or surgical treatments. The purpose of their use is to support, partially or completely, the failed ventricles and ensure adequate organ perfusion, which allows patients to restore full cardiovascular capacity, prolonging their life and effectively improving its quality. The three most popular devices include an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), percutaneous assist devices (including Impella, TandemHeart), and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). A multidisciplinary approach with the special participation of …
