2018
Abstract Objectives The authors sought to compare outcomes of patients with myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock (CS) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with or without intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) support according to final epicardial flow in the infarct-related artery. Background A routine use of IABP is contraindicated in patients with myocardial infarction and CS. There are no data regarding the subpopulation of patients who may benefit from such support besides patients with mechanical complications of myocardial infarction. Methods Prospective nationwide registry data of patients with myocardial infarction and CS treated with PCI between 2003 and 2014 wer…
Poland’s Syndrome
2020
Poland’s syndrome is a sporadic, congenital thoracic deformity, mostly unilateral, with a wide spectrum of presentation. The thoracic malformations are distinguished on the basis of the anatomical site in which an embryological development alteration has occurred after the fourth week of gestation (Table 3.1) [1]. Poland’s syndrome is a rare congenital and complex anomaly of the development of thoracic muscles, characterized by hypoplasia of the breast and nipple, scarcity of subcutaneous tissue, absence of the costosternal portion of the pectoralis major muscle, lack of the pectoralis minor muscle, aplasia or deformity of the costal cartilages or ribs II to IV or III to V, alopecia of the …

Epidemiological analysis of hospitalisations due to recurrent stroke in the Silesian Province, Poland, between 2009 and 2015
2019
Background and aim. There is a lack of recent epidemiological studies on recurrent stroke (RS) in Poland. The aim of this study was to analyse all hospitalisations related to RS in Silesia – an industrial region covering 12% of the Polish population. Material and methods. We carried out statistical analysis of data contained in stroke questionnaires transferred to the Polish National Health Fund by hospitals in Silesia, Poland, between 2009 and 2015. Results. In the analysed period, the number of RS hospitalisations in Silesia was 18,063 (22.2% of all acute strokes). The percentage of RS significantly decreased during the period under consideration (p < 0.001). The same observation concerne…
Uczestnictwo mniejszości narodowych i etnicznych w polskim życiu politycznym po 1989 roku
2019
The participation of national and ethnic minorities in Polish political life after 1989 is one of the achieve-ments of democratic Poland. Tracing the history of minority participation in local and parliamentary elec-tions after 1990 makes it clear that this history is dominated by the German minority. However, this does not mean that other minorities did not participate in political competition at the local, regional or national level, but rather that their participation was clearly more modest compared to the German minority. Partici-pation in the political life of other minorities has mainly a local dimension, although these communities do not choose to participate in their own ethnic ele…
Ochrona praw mniejszości narodowych i etnicznych na tle zmian politycznych w Polsce - przyczynek do dyskusji
2021
Polskie prawo posiada bogaty zestaw narzędzi ochrony praw i wsparcia mniejszości narodowych i etnicznych, na czele z art. 35 Konstytucji RP i ustawą z 6 stycznia 2005 r. o mniejszościach narodowych i etnicznych i o języku regionalnym. Kilkanaście lat funkcjonowania ustawy jest odpowiednio długim okresem, by móc oceniać skuteczność i funkcjonalność systemu ochrony i wsparcia tych społeczności oraz zastanawiać się nad ewolucją polityki na ich rzecz, realizowaną przez poszczególne rządy. Spośród polskich mniejszości narodowych i etnicznych najliczniejszą i najlepiej zorganizowaną jest mniejszość niemiecka, zamieszkująca głównie obszar województwa opolskiego. Społeczność ta ma potencjał, by w p…
"Czytano je z zajęciem, a często ze wzruszeniem" : o zapomnianych powieściach Hanny Krzemienieckiej
2019
Janina née Bobińska Furs-Żyrkiewiczowa (1866–1930) is a forgotten author of works documenting the life of the Polish landed gentry and the intelligentsia in Russian Ukraine at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Her three novels – Fatum. Studium psychologiczne (1904). A gdy odejdzie w przepaść wieczną… Romans zagrobowy (1906), Lecą wichry!( 1921) – in an interesting way they combine conventions of moral realism, decadent and lyrical atmosphere of modernism and the traditions of the “Ukrainian school” of Polish Romantic poetry (the writer was related to B. Zaleski). The prose of Krzemieniecka, the wife of a Pole and a high-ranking Russian officer, contains many autobiographical themes a…
The use of neutron activitacion analysis in the biomonitoring of trace element deposition in the Opole province
2013
Metodą neutronowej analizy aktywacyjnej oznaczono stężenia 42 pierwiastków: Na, Mg, Al, Cl, K, Ca, Sc, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Co, Zn, As, Se, Br, Rb, Sr, Zr, Nb, Mo, I, Ag, Cd, Sb, Ba, Cs, La, Ce, Nd, Sm, Eu, Tb, Yb,Hf, Ta, W, Au, Hg, Th i U, zakumulowanych w mchach pobranych do badań we wrześniu i w październiku 2011 roku na terenie województwa opolskiego (południowa Polska). Próbki różnych gatunków mchów pobierano w bliskiej odległości od miejsc przecięcia linii siatki kartograficznej naniesionych na mapę województwa. Odległości pomiędzy punktami wynosiły ok. 20 km. Analiza wyników badań umożliwiła wskazanie miejsc zwiększonej depozycji zanieczyszczeń wraz ze wskazaniem potencjalnych źródeł i…
Analysis of the impact of sex and age on the variation in the prevalence of antinuclear autoantibodies in Polish population: a nationwide observation…
2022
AbstractThe detection of antinuclear autoantibody (ANA) is dependent on many factors and varies between the populations. The aim of the study was first to assess the prevalence of ANA in the Polish adult population depending on age, sex and the cutoff threshold used for the results obtained. Second, we estimated the occurrence of individual types of ANA-staining patterns. We tested 1731 patient samples using commercially available IIFA using two cutoff thresholds of 1:100 and 1:160. We found ANA in 260 participants (15.0%), but the percentage of positive results strongly depended on the cutoff level. For a cutoff threshold 1:100, the positive population was 19.5% and for the 1:160 cutoff th…
