A comparison between three ideal types of parliamentary politics : representation, legislation and deliberation
2018
Representative, legislative and deliberative assemblies are commonly called parliaments. The three types of assemblies share many procedures and practices, and the Inter-Parliamentary Union includes all three types among its members. Nonetheless, as ideal types in the Weberian sense, the three kinds of political assemblies do differ in their modes of acting and thinking politically. This article is a thought experiment to sketch the three ideal types by working out a number of key aspects of their distinctive political features. The political action that characterizes representative assemblies is pre-parliamentary elections, legislative assemblies are judged by their post-parliamentary resu…
A discourse on the textual-psychoidal duality in the novel "Thorn and Laurel" ["Cierń i laur"] by Wladyslaw Lech Terlecki
2018
Discourse on textual-psychoidal duality in Władysław Lech Terlecki’s novel Cierń i laur (Thorn and Laurel). The topic of the novel Cierń i Laur (Thorn and Laurel) by Władysław Lech Terlecki (1933-1999) is the fate of Master - a nameless author of historical novels whose real model might be Józef Ignacy Kraszewski (1812-1887) - a nineteenth century author of historical and domestic fiction, well known in Europe of that time. His last romance coincides with his another novel written simultaneously - two fictional perspectives penetrate and illuminate each other. The play of mirror reflections, elements of chest-like composition and duality of inter-textual perspective find explanation in inte…
Salinity affects nitrate removal and microbial composition of denitrifying woodchip bioreactors treating recirculating aquaculture system effluents
2019
Abstract This study investigated the effect of salinity on microbial composition and denitrification capacity of woodchip bioreactors treating recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) effluents. Twelve laboratory-scale woodchip bioreactors were run in triplicates at 0, 15, 25, and 35 ppt salinities, and water chemistry was monitored every third day during the first 39 days of operation. Microbial communities of the woodchips bioreactors were analyzed at the start, after one week, and at the end of the trial. Woodchip bioreactors removed nitrate at all salinities tested. The highest NO3-N removal rate of 22.0 ± 6.9 g NO3-N/m3/d was obtained at 0 ppt, while 15.3 ± 4.9, 12.5 ± 5.4 and 11.8 ± 4.0…

Samoocena wiedzy nauczycieli w zakresie przygotowania do sprawowania opieki nad dzieckiem z cukrzycą typu 1 w szkole
2019
Wprowadzenie. Współczynnik zapadalności na cukrzycę w Polsce jest uważany za jeden z najwyższych w Europie. Środowiskiem, w którym dziecko w wieku szkolnym spędza najwięcej czasu jest dom oraz szkoła. Gwarancją poczucia bezpieczeństwa, zarówno chorych dzieci, jak i ich rodziców, mogą być nauczyciele przygotowani do sprawowania opieki nad dzieckiem w zakresie akceptowalnym przez polskie prawo. Cel pracy. Poznanie samooceny nauczycieli w zakresie stopnia ich przygotowania do sprawowania opieki nad dzieckiem chorującym na cukrzycę typu 1 w szkole. Materiał i metody. Badania były prowadzone w okresie od listopada 2017 do lutego 2018 r. metodą sondażu diagnostycznego, techniką ankietowania z wyk…
Type 1 diabetes in an adolescent with social problems and mental disorders – case report
2021
W cukrzycy typu 1 przerwanie leczenia (insulinoterapii) prowadzi do cukrzycowej kwasicy ketonowej (DKA), będącej stanem bezpośredniego zagrożenia życia. Celem przedstawionego opisu przypadku jest zwrócenie uwagi na sytuację pacjentów z cukrzycą typu 1 i istotnymi problemami socjalnymi/psychicznymi, którzy ze względu na brak odpowiednich uregulowań prawnych „wypadają z systemu”, który mógłby zapewnić im odpowiednią opiekę warunkującą prawidłowe leczenie. Zaburzenia psychiczne i/lub problemy socjalne utrudniają lub uniemożliwiają prowadzenie samokontroli i leczenia. Pacjenci tacy stanowią istotne wyzwanie dla zespołu diabetologicznego i wymagają zindywidualizowanego postępowania ze strony sys…
Adherence to Medication in Older Adults with Type 2 Diabetes Living in Lubuskie Voivodeship in Poland: Association with Frailty Syndrome
2022
Purpose: Diabetic patients aged 65 years or older are more likely to be frail than non-diabetic older adults. Adherence to therapeutic recommendations in the elderly suffering from diabetes and co-existent frailty syndrome may prevent complications such as micro- or macroangiopathy, as well as significantly affect prevention and reversibility of frailty. The study aimed at assessing the impact of frailty syndrome (FS) on the level of adherence to medication in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes (DM2). Patients and Methods: The research was carried out among 175 DM2 patients (87; 49.71% women and 88; 50.29% men) whose average age amounted to 70.25 ± 6.7. Standardized research instr…
Enhanced Lipid Peroxidation and Platelet Activation in the Early Phase of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
2003
Background— To investigate early events possibly related to the development of diabetic angiopathy, we examined whether 8-iso-prostaglandin F 2α (8-iso-PGF 2α ) formation, a marker of in vivo oxidant stress, is altered in different stages of type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and whether it correlates with the rate of thromboxane (TX) A 2 biosynthesis, a marker of in vivo platelet activation. We also investigated the relationship between inflammatory markers and F 2 -isoprostane formation in this setting. Methods and Results— A cross-sectional study was performed in 23 insulin-treated patients aged <18 years with new-onset T1DM (≤6 weeks, group A), matched for age and gender with 23 patients with s…
