Introduction: Diabetes poses a significant global health challenge, impacting patient well-being and longevity. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, the prevalence of diabetes continues to rise, with projections indicating a substantial increase in affected individuals in the coming years. The complications of diabetes, including cardiovascular disease, retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy, underscore the importance of early detection and management. In this context, artificial intelligence (AI) offers promising opportunities to revolutionize diabetes care, enabling faster diagnostics, more effective treatment strategies. Description of the State of Knowledge: Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force in healthcare, leveraging machine learning and deep learning algorithms to analyze vast amounts of medical data. These algorithms enable more accurate diagnosis, prediction of disease onset, and early detection of complications associated with diabetes. Machine learning models, including support vector machines and neural networks, have shown promise in identifying diabetes risk factors and predicting disease progression. Deep learning techniques, with their ability to analyze complex data patterns, offer further insights into diabetes diagnosis. Additionally, fuzzy cognitive maps provide a framework for decision-making based on patient data, enhancing early detection efforts. Summary: Artificial intelligence holds immense potential to transform diabetes care, offering solutions for early detection, personalized treatment, and improved patient outcomes. By harnessing the power of AI algorithms, healthcare providers can enhance diagnostic accuracy, predict disease progression, and implement targeted interventions.

Introduction and purpose: Breast cancer poses a significant global health challenge, especially in Poland, where it is the most prevalent cancer among women. Despite advancements in medical technology, individual awareness and proactive health practices, such as Breast Self-Examination (BSE), are crucial for early detection. This study focuses on BSE practices in the Tarnów district of Poland, a small city facing unique healthcare challenges, to understand the prevalence, knowledge, and attitudes toward BSE. The aim of study was to comprehensively investigate BSE practices among women in the Tarnów district, considering socio-demographic factors. Material and Methods: Anonymous questionnaires assessed socio-demographic characteristics, attitudes toward BSE, frequency of BSE performance, knowledge on BSE, and sources of information. The survey involved 100 Polish women in gynecologist and general practitioner offices in Tarnów County. Results were analyzed in relation to age, education, and place of residence. Results: While 90% of women were familiar with BSE, 10% had never heard of it. While 29% performed BSE monthly, 18% never conducted the examination. Knowledge gaps were identified, particularly regarding optimal BSE practices. Information sources included the Internet (44%) and gynecologists (28%). Notably, 65% expressed a willingness to participate in BSE training. Conclusions: In conclusion, the study provides valuable insights into BSE practices among women in the Tarnów district, emphasizing the need for targeted interventions to encourage regular BSE. Knowledge gaps and the willingness of women to participate in training present opportunities for healthcare initiatives. The study also highlights the need for broader health education campaigns to dispel myths and enhance awareness, particularly regarding breast cancer affecting both genders. Limitations include a small sample size and geographic specificity to Tarnów district.

Introduction Vegetarianism is an eating pattern centred on plant-based food. It encompasses many diets that differ in terms of whether they contain goods originating from animals, like milk and eggs. Nowadays, vegetarianism is increasing in popularity in developed nations, particularly in Europe. Individuals choose vegetarian diets for reasons related to health, ethics, or ecology. The rising popularity of vegetarian diets is not limited to adults but is also increasing among children. Aim of the study Vegetarian diets are generally considered to be beneficial for health. However, there are concerns over the ability to meet the dietary requirements necessary during infancy, youth, and adolescence on a vegetarian diet. Therefore, the primary aim of this systematic review is to answer questions about the efficacy of a plant-based diet in meeting the nutritional requirements of children and how to avoid the risk of nutritional deficiencies among vegetarian children. Material and methods Article provides an overview of the current literature about the vegetarian diet in children. The information has been collected from a comprehensive search of electronic databases, scientific journals, and statement papers published by nutrition and paediatric organisations. Results Following a vegetarian diet can be a beneficial decision for all children, assuming that it is properly organised and well balanced. The majority of paediatric and nutrition organisations do not recommend more strict diets for children, such as a vegan diet, which fully excludes not only meat but all animal products.

Introduction Overactive bladder syndrome poses a major challenge to healthcare, as an accurate estimate of its prevalence proves elusive due to patients' reluctance to disclose the embarrassing symptoms that accompany the disorder. Symptoms such as frequent urination, nocturia and incontinence are not only distressing but also significantly impair patients' quality of life. Effective diagnosis and treatment require the identification of associated risk factors, and behavioural therapy serves as the basis for implementing lifestyle modifications. This comprehensive study delves into the managing of overactive bladder syndrome, shedding light on recent advances in diagnosis and treatment. In particular, it looks at the integration of minimally invasive techniques and new medications that promise to not only alleviate symptoms, but also significantly improve patients' overall quality of life. Aim of the study This review aims to identify risk factors, symptoms, methods of diagnosis of overactive bladder syndrome and solutions in its treatment process. The main aim is to present treatment methods with the latest developments. Material and method This article presents the current state of knowledge about overactive bladder syndrome in various scientific articles. Publications describing overactive bladder syndrome, its symptoms, impact on life comfort and treatment options, including recent reports in the field, were reviewed using the PubMed platform. The search included the keywords ‘overactive bladder’, ‘urgency urinary incontinence’, ‘anticholinergics’, ‘mirabegron’, ‘nocturia’.

INTRODUCTION: Paraneoplastic Neurological Syndromes (PNS) represent a heterogeneous group of diseases associated with the presence of neoplasm. The appearance of PNS can precede cancer diagnosis. The estimated frequency amongst cancer patients is about 1%. Malignant tumors represent a serious health problem and are the second leading cause of death in Poland. The aim of this study is to collect information about PNS focusing on cancers mostly diagnosed in Polish adults. REVIEW METHODS: The analysis was conducted based on information regarding PNS gathered from PubMed and Google Scholar within the context of selected cancers. THE STATE OF KNOWLEDGE: PNS develop from an autoimmune reaction in which onconeural antibodies are produced. The recent classification divides PNS to high risk, indicating a likely paraneoplastic origin and intermediate risk, if this association is less evident. Diagnosis is difficult and usually relies on exclusion methods. The symptoms described are non-specific and the diagnostic process may require the involvement of various specialists. The main approaches include cancer treatment, especially tumor removal and immunotherapy, which in certain may prove to be effective. SUMMARY: Although PNS is relatively rare, its detectability has recently increased. Many syndromes are especially associated with lung cancer (mainly small cell carcinoma). Breast and prostate cancers have also shown associations with certain syndromes. They can present with nonspecific symptoms related to different organ systems. Awareness and understanding of this phenomenon can be helpful amongst many specialists.

Background. Today, acute pancreatitis is one of the most common and severe visceral disorders in patients worldwide. The aim of the work was to study the dynamics of ultrastructural changes of type II alveolocytes in the long-term periods of development of experimental acute pancreatitis. Material and methods. The experiments were carried out on 54 white Wistar male rats weighing 180–220 g. The animals were divided into three groups: first — intact, second — control, third — experimental with a model of acute pancreatitis, which was reproduced by intraperitoneal administration of a 20% solution of L-arginine at a total dose of 5 g/kg at one-hour interval. The control group of animals was intraperitoneally injected with an equivalent dose of isotonic sodium chloride solution. All research were performed under sodium thiopental anesthesia at the rate of 60 mg/kg body weight. Lung tissue for electron microscopic examination was collected from the lower lobe of the left lung at 3–5 and 7 days. Pieces of lung tissue measuring 1×1×1 mm were fixed in a 2.5% glutaraldehyde solution, followed by additional fixation in a 1% osmium tetroxide solution. After dehydration, the material was poured into Epon-Araldite. Sections with a thickness of 20–50 nm obtained on “Tesla BS-490” ultramicrotome were studied in a PEM-125K electron microscope. Results. It was found that three days after the start of the study, along with dystrophic-destructive changes, type II alveolocytes in a state of increased functional activity were observed. Continuation of the experiment (5 days) leads to the progression of ultrastructural changes in type II alveolocytes are determined, which are most pronounced on the 7 day of the study. Conclusion. Acute experimental pancreatitis is accompanied by marked changes in the ultrastructural structure of type II alveolocytes. The nature and severity of structural changes of type II alveolocytes depends on the duration of the course of arginine-induced acute pancreatitis.
背景。如今，急性胰腺炎是全球患者最常见、最严重的内脏疾病之一。本研究旨在研究实验性急性胰腺炎长期发展过程中 II 型肺泡细胞超微结构的动态变化。材料和方法实验对象为体重 180-220 克的 54 只白色 Wistar 雄性大鼠。动物被分为三组：第一组--完整组，第二组--对照组，第三组--急性胰腺炎模型实验组。对照组动物腹腔注射同等剂量的等渗氯化钠溶液。所有研究均在硫喷妥钠麻醉下进行，剂量为 60 毫克/千克体重。分别于3-5天和7天从左肺下叶采集肺组织进行电子显微镜检查。将 1×1×1 毫米的肺组织切片固定在 2.5% 戊二醛溶液中，然后再固定在 1% 四氧化锇溶液中。脱水后，将材料倒入 Epon-Araldite 中。在 "Tesla BS-490 "超微切片机上获得的厚度为 20-50 纳米的切片在 PEM-125K 电子显微镜下进行研究。结果。研究发现，在研究开始三天后，除了萎缩性-破坏性变化外，还观察到处于功能活性增强状态的 II 型肺泡细胞。继续实验（5 天）会导致 II 型肺泡细胞的超微结构发生变化，这种变化在研究的第 7 天最为明显。结论急性实验性胰腺炎伴随着 II 型肺泡细胞超微结构的明显变化。II 型肺泡细胞结构变化的性质和严重程度取决于精氨酸诱导的急性胰腺炎病程的长短。

Breast cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related deaths among women in the world. Its occurrence is mainly influenced by environmental factors, and to a lesser extent by genetic factors. The gold standard in diagnosis is mammography, but special attention should be paid to the need to educate women at an increasingly younger age in the field of breast self-examination. Treatment for breast cancer includes surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and hormone therapy.
