Tyrimo pagrindimas. Raumenų masė yra vienas iš esminių rodiklių, kurie paveikia atsigavimą po sunkios ligos ar traumos. Maža raumenų masė susijusi su didesne ligonių, sergančių vainikinių arterijų ligomis, mirštamumo rizika (Nichols et al., 2019. Sarkopenijos paplitimas tarp senyvo amžiaus žmonių apima nuo 7 iki 50% populiacijos (Bijlsma et al., 2013). Dėl savo filogenetinio panašumo pelės ilgą laiką tarnavo kaip žmogaus biologijos modeliai, įskaitant genetinių raumenų masę lemiančius veiksnius (Morse, 2007). Mūsų tikslas buvo ištirti, ar A/J pelių linijos 10 chromosomoje esantys genų variantai veikia C57BL/6J pelių linijos raumenų Metodai. Ištyrėme C57BL / 6J (B6, n = 11) ir C57BL/6J-Chr10A/J/NaJ (B6.A10, n = 10) pelių linijas. B6.A10 linija turi B6 linijos genetinį foną, tačiau skiriasi 10 chromosoma, kuri yra iš A/J linijos, vietoj 10 chromosomos – iš B6 linijos. Buvo įvertinta kūno masė, plekšninio raumens masė ir morfometrinės savybės, blauzdikaulio Rezultatai. Plekšninio raumens masė nesiskyrė tarp B6 ir B6.A10 linijų (9.3 ± 0.7 mg ir 9.8 ± 0.4 mg atitinkamai, p > 0.05). Taip pat nenustatėme skirtumo tarp raumeninių skaidulų kiekio (860 ± 148 ir 913 ± 136, atitinkamai B6 ir B6.A10 linijų, p > 0.05). B6 ir B6.A10 pelės turėjo vienodą raumeninių skaidulų skerspjūvio plotą: I tipo skaidulų (1616 µm² ± 303 ir 1752µm² ± 136, B6 ir B6.A10 linijos atitinkamai, p > 0.05) ir II tipo skaidulų (1689 µm² ± 291 ir 1734µm² ± 179, B6 ir B6.A10 linijos atitinkamai, p > Išvada. 10 chromosoma, esanti B6.A10 pelių linijoje neturi jokių genų, kurie gali paveikti B6 linijos pelių raumenų savybes.Raktažodžiai: raumenų masė, skerspjūvio plotas, raumeninės skaidulos.

Parkinson’s disease is a chronic progressive neurological disorder that can impact function to a variable degree. Changes in gait parameters are the most common signs of Parkinson’s disease. Patients with Parkinson’s disease walk with a reduced step length, step time, walking velocity and walking cadence, increased stride cycle time, coefficient of variation of the step amplitude and step time and increased risk to fall. So, various gait training methods are applied. The effect of rhythmic auditory stimulation on gait in Parkinson’s disease patients is analysed. We can use various kinds of music, metronome, scansion and clapping as a rhythmic auditory stimulation.One of gait training methods in Parkinson’s disease patients is treadmill training. There are attempts to combine treadmill training with transcranial magnetic stimulation and virtual reality. We can use Nordic walking method and because walking technique requires straight posture, trunk rotation, bigger step and heel stride. More often robot–assisted gait training is used in patients with Parkinson’s disease gait training. The effect of dual–tasking and walking with music methods for gait and balance training in patients with Parkinson’s disease is also analysed. This method requires participants to perform primary and secondary tasks at the same time. The secondary task can be cognitive or motor. Dual–tasking is widely analysed because opinions about applying this method are very controversial. Walking with music method is more often analysed in scientific literature. This method could not be compared to rhythmic auditory stimulation method because the latter requires precise walking to rhythm and walking with music method is oriented to emotional component (music is chosen according patients’ music taste). As these methods are applied, we can see an increase in chosen walking and maximal walking velocities, step length and time, distance covered, and decrease in the coefficient of variation of the step time and turning time.Keywords: Gait impairments, walking velocity, rhythmic auditory stimulation.

Professional literature provides various studies discussing gait pathologies depending on the type of nervous system and skeletomuscular system. There are, however, no complex studies discussing aspects of gait, such as walking pace, step length or step duration during the 6-minute walk test in patients with COPD. The objective of this work was, therefore, to analyse the gait of patients with COPD during the 6-minute walk test. It attempted to answer the question how gait parameters change during physical effort in case of patients with COPD. The research included 33 in-patients with COPD (27 males and 6 females), with median age of 65.7 ± 10.4, treated in MSWiA Hospital in Glucholazy. For the purposes of gait analysis, the GaitRite mat was used to measure walking pace, step length and step duration. The mat was 4 meters in length and the active surface consisted of 14 thousand sensors. Pearson’s correlation index and t test were used to calculate the relationships between the tested parameters. The analysis of the results showed that as the distance covered in the 6-minute walk test increased, the pace of walking decreased and the step duration and length significantly increased (p < 0.05). High correlations between the values of gait parameters and distance covered were observed. The research showed statistically significant differences in the values of parameters indicating walk pace, step duration and step length between the first and the last tests.Keywords: gait analysis, 6MWT, COPD.

Physiotherapy in patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy (CHL) is impeded by post-operative pain which causes a decline in patients’ activity, reduces respiratory muscle function and affects patients’ ability to look after themselves. The aim of this study was to assess the influence of Kinesio Taping (KT) on the increase in effort tolerance in patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The task of the research was to compare results of 100-meter walk test in test group and control group before surgery, during and after physiotherapy. The research included 63 patients after CHL treated in General Surgery Department of Hospital in Nysa. Both test group (BA) and control group (KO) included randomly selected volunteers who met test qualification criteria. BA group consisted of 32 patients (26 females and 6 males), KO group consisted of 31 patients (22 females and 9 males). Both groups were subjected to complex physiotherapy and group BA had additional KT applications. The results were subjected to statistical analysis with the use of U MannWhitney test. The level of statistical significance was established at p < 0.05. The results showed that in the test conducted before surgery the level of median time recorded in the 100-meter test did not differ significantly between the two research groups. In further tests, the 100-meter walk test time was significantly shorter in the test group in comparison with the patients from the control group. Conclusion: The improvement in effort tolerance observed in the research indicates the efficiency of Kinesio Taping as a method complementing physiotherapy in patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Keywords: Kinesio Taping, laparoscopic cholecystectomy, physiotherapy.

Research background. In patients with multiple sclerosis vision disorders affect the balance and gait. Impaired balance, gait increases the risk of collapse. The purpose of this study was to evaluate relationship between visual acuity, balance and gait disorders in people with multiple sclerosis. Research methods. Fullerton balance test, balance confidence scale, up and go test, visual acuity were tested using Snellen methodology with Landolt rings. Research results. Balance of subjects without any visual acuity disorders was significantly better (p < 0.05), gait was also faster in subject without visual acuity disorders, but we did not establish statistical significance (p > 0.05). Conclusions: 1. Balance of subject with multiple sclerosis and decreased visual acuity is impaired, but possibility to fall is low. 2. Balance of subjects with multiple sclerosis and without any visual acuity disorders was significantly better compared to subjects whose had any disorders of visual acuity. Gait in subjects without any visual acuity disorders was faster compared to gait of subjects which decreased visual acuity, but there was no statistical significance established.Keywords: multiple sclerosis, balance, gait, visual acuity disorders.

Research background. Hygiene of the surfaces means a clean environment of a hospital, especially that of a patient, which consists of constant basic cleaning and disinfection. The registration, analysis and storage of data on cleaning, disinfecting the surrounding objects is a successful stage in ensuring clean surfaces. The registration of documents and the cleaning and disinfecting schedule help to determine the tender spots in the surface cleaning. It makes easy to establish the surface hygiene violations, participation of the nursing and auxiliary staff in disinfecting the surfaces, problems related to the surface disinfection, and make the analysis of the mistakes made easier. The aim of the study. To assess a 2009–2011 hygienic preparation of medical surfaces, which have an effect on the transmission of the hospital-acquired infection, and the efficiency of the preventative measures. Methods. The survey was conducted in university hospital in 2009–2011. To evaluate the surface hygiene of the environmental objects the test of the remains of biological contamination was chosen using the chemical means HemoCheck-S™. The accuracy of the test is 0.1 µq of the remains of biological contamination on the surfaces under investigation. The results are evaluated by calculating the amount of denatured biological contamination from the highest concentration to 0. The surface contamination is evaluated in points from “0” to “5”, where “0” is no contamination (medical surface is fully prepared for a procedure), and “5” is maximum contamination (100 µq, maximum contamination shown by the HemoCheck-S™ test). Results. Investigation shows that the surfaces belonging to the low-risk group are contaminated most heavily. The analysis of the investigations carried out during three years leads us to the conclusion that during the time of cleaning the surface, the staff fails to observe the sequence and do not change soft inventory (napkins) intended for cleaning. This is testified by presence of biological contamination in the low-risk group: switch-boards on the patients’ beds, cupboards and drip mounts. Conclusions. Insufficient hygiene of high, medium risk and often touched surfaces and surfaces of nursing measures was established. The inadequate preparation of the medical surfaces was most often made in the Intensive Care Intensive Therapy units.Keywords: hygienic preparation; medical surfaces; the hospital-acquired infection.

Research background. Young women use cosmetic products daily to maintain a good aesthetic appearance and express their individuality. Their habits of use affect not only their skin and hair condition but also their well-being and health. After getting familiar with the young women’s opinion about the use of cosmetics, we aimed to promote women’s interest in the safe use of cosmetics. The aim of the study was to assess the opinions of young women towards the use of cosmetics. Methods. Quantitative research, questionnaire method was applied. The study sample consisted of students of the Klaipeda University of Applied Sciences studying in the feld of biomedicine (girls and women, n = 240). Results. The study showed that the most commonly used were hygiene products. Most respondents used between 5 and 10 cosmetic products per day (39.6%). The main choice criteria of cosmetic products were as follows: benefcial long-term effects and the desired effect on beauty. More than 90% of young women believed that cosmetic products might contain substances that were harmful to health, but about 36% of them asked about the presence of specifc substances. Conclusion. The study showed that young women’s habits posed a certain risk of adverse effects, as a large number of them were not interested in the composition of the product before purchasing. Despite the fact that the majority of women experienced side effects, a few of them performed a patch test. Most women agreed that it was worth buying organic, though more expensive cosmetics, but a small number applied it themselves.Keywords: cosmetics, women, opinion.

Most women agreed that it was worth buying organic, though more expensive cosmetics, but a small number applied it themselves.Keywords: cosmetics, women, opinion.","PeriodicalId":34737,"journal":{"name":"Reabilitacijos Mokslai Slauga Kineziterapija Ergoterapija","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45890376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Relevance of the topic. Most authors agree that physical activity (PA) affects sleep (Kredlow et al., 2015), but it remains unclear how the quality of sleep varies with individual PA schedule and daily immobility. The goal was to identify the interfaces between physical activity and sleep quality for 18–25-year-old students. Research methods. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, smart watches Polar A300 were used. Results of the study. By analysing the obtained study data, 2 groups were formed according to physical activity: medium PA (56.1%) and high PA (43.9%). The quality of sleep among students was as follows: good (36.4%), bad (63.6%). Signifcant correlations were found between PA aspects and falling asleep time, PSQI. There were no signifcant interfaces between PA aspects and sleep duration. Conclusions. The majority of students were of moderate physical activity, less high physical activity and there were no students of low physical activity. Poor quality of sleep prevailed among students. Weak interfaces were identifed between continuous sitting and the time of useless sleep. Dependences were also found between sleep quality and the duration of intense physical activity as well as the level of physical activity. Signifcant dependencies were not established between the time of day of intense physical activity or the intense physical activity type and sleep quality itself, although the latter signifcantly affected the duration of sleep, the time of awakening and the length of useless sleep.Keywords: students, physical activity, sleep quality, long sitting.
主题的相关性。大多数作者都认为体育活动(PA)会影响睡眠(Kredlow et al., 2015),但目前尚不清楚睡眠质量如何随个人PA时间表和日常不动而变化。目的是确定18 - 25岁学生的身体活动和睡眠质量之间的联系。研究方法。使用国际体育活动问卷、匹兹堡睡眠质量指数、智能手表Polar A300。研究结果。通过对获得的研究资料进行分析,根据身体活动量分为中PA组(56.1%)和高PA组(43.9%)。学生的睡眠质量为好(36.4%),差(63.6%)。PA方面与入睡时间、PSQI有显著相关。PA方面与睡眠持续时间之间没有显著的接口。结论。大多数学生是中等体力活动,较少的体力活动,没有学生是低体力活动。学生中普遍存在睡眠质量差的问题。在持续坐着和毫无意义的睡眠时间之间确定了弱接口。研究还发现,睡眠质量与剧烈体育活动的持续时间以及体育活动的水平之间存在依赖关系。尽管睡眠质量会显著影响睡眠持续时间、觉醒时间和无用睡眠的时长,但在一天中进行剧烈体育活动的时间或剧烈体育活动的类型与睡眠质量本身之间并没有建立显著的依赖关系。关键词:学生,体育活动,睡眠质量,久坐。

Background. Overweight and obesity are described as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that can affect health (WHO, 2016). Aerobic exercise as a form of physical activity is highly recommended for people with overweight and obesity by reducing weight and fat mass (Lee, Oh, 2014). Furthermore, it has a positive effect on mental health (Said et al., 2017). The aim of the study was to determine the impact of four-week aerobic exercise on body composition and psycho-emotional status in obese women. Methods. Twelve obese women participated in moderate intensity aerobic training intervention (65–75% of max HR). Duration of the session was 60 min, 3 times per week. Measurements were taken twice: at the beginning and at the end of the study. Body composition was evaluated with “Tanita TBF-300” (UK Ltd., UK) analyzer: body weight (kg), BMI (kg/m2), percentage fat mass, fat mass (kg), fat free mass (kg), total body water (kg). Waist and hip circumferences were measured with a centimeter strip. To estimate psycho-emotional status we used Perceived Stress Scale 14 (PSS-14). Results. After aerobic exercise intervention, the body weight, fat mass, hip and waist circumferences were signifcantly reduced (p < 0.05). Changes in body mass index, lean body mass and waist-hip ratio were not statistically signifcant (p ≥ 0.05). During the study, the effect of aerobic exercise intervention on the psychoemotional state was evaluated and subjectively perceived stress decreased statistically signifcantly (p < 0.05). Conclusions. Aerobic exercise intervention for four weeks reduced body weight, fat mass, waist and hip circumference and improved psycho-emotional state in obese women.Keywords: aerobic exercise, physical therapy, overweight, body composition, stress.
