The
and
variants have been associated with the risk of musculoskeletal injuries. Therefore, the main aim of the study was to investigate the association between three polymorphisms within two genes ...(rs1800012 in
, as well as rs12722 and rs13946 in
) and the reported, yet rarely described in the literature, injuries of the joint and muscle area in a physically active Caucasian population. Polish students (
= 114) were recruited and divided into the following two groups: students with (
= 53) and without (
= 61) injures. Genotyping was carried out using real-time PCR. The results obtained revealed a statistically significant association between rs1800012
and injury under an overdominant model. Specifically, when adjusted for age and sex, the GT heterozygotes had a 2.2 times higher chance of being injured compared with both homozygotes (TT and GG, 95% CI 0.59-5.07,
= 0.040). However, no significant interaction between the
variants, either individually or in haplotype combination, and susceptibility to injury were found. In addition, the gene-gene interaction analysis did not reveal important relationships with the musculoskeletal injury status. It was demonstrated that rs1800012
may be positively associated with physical activity-related injuries in a Caucasian population. Harboring the specific GT genotype may be linked to a higher risk of being injured.
The global COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in restrictions in most countries. One of them was to replace traditional education in schools with online learning. Such a change could provoke a build-up ...of negative feelings due to insecurity and loneliness. In addition, reducing daily physical activity and closing sports venues can have a detrimental effect on health. The article presents the results of the study of the impact of distance learning on the daily physical activity and condition of physical education teachers in Poland, as well as the subjective perception of physical and mental health in this professional group. Google forms were used to collect the data. The research tool was a questionnaire. The analysis showed that distance learning had a significant negative impact on the physical and mental health of the study group. The impact of distance learning on physical and mental health is gender independent. Teachers more often negatively assessed their physical and mental health compared to the studies in previous years. Daily physical activity of the subjects decreased, and most of them increased their body weight. Less than 3% of the surveyed teachers during the blockade felt happy and full of life.

Legal regulations establish many rules and norms aimed at maintaining proper working
conditions of the society. One of the activities promoting health in the workplace is compliance
with the ...provisions of the international legal act created under the auspices of WHO – the World
Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Conservation. The document was created
in response to the growing number of people smoking nicotine and the related health situation.
Poland has made a commitment in the field of health and socio-economic policy, which assumes
reduction and elimination of the use of tobacco products in public areas. Compliance with the law
should significantly improve the health situation of society by reducing the percentage of people
struggling with tobacco-related diseases and the health consequences of passive smoking.
The aim of the work is to present the most important activities in the field of health promotion
carried out in places where people undertake various earning activities. The work
uses a method of analysis and criticism of the literature consisting in a review of the literature
and obtaining knowledge in a given field.
Celem badań było uzyskanie informacji od Prezesa NiOL Spółki z o.o. na temat rozwoju systemu rowerowego w Szczecinie oraz jego wpływu na jakość życia mieszkańców. Metodą wybraną do badań była metoda ...sondażu diagnostycznego, techniką − wywiad. Uzyskane dane posłużyły do charakterystyki rozwoju systemu rowerowego w Szczecinie ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem wpływu na poprawę jakości życia mieszkańców. System Bike_S został uruchomiony w sierpniu 2014 roku w odpowiedzi na wnioski mieszkańców Szczecina, którzy obserwując powstawanie podobnych systemów w innych miastach chcieli korzystać z takiego rozwiązania również w Szczecinie. Pierwszy etap budowy systemu zakładał 33 stacje, na których można było korzystać łącznie z 342 rowerów. Obecnie system składa się z 82 stacji rozlokowanych zarówno na lewobrzeżnej, jak i prawobrzeżnej części miasta, a do dyspozycji użytkowników oddano ponad 700 rowerów. Z uwagi na podwojenie liczby stacji rowerowych oraz rowerów wzrosła również dzienna liczba wypożyczeń rowerów, a liczba zarejestrowanych użytkowników sięga prawie 30 000.

Introduction: Unhealthy eating habits in childhood, usually based on a Western diet, can lead to overweight and obesity. They are also an important factor in the increased risk of developing many ...diet-related diseases later in life. Early identification of school aged children with poor eating habits can help reduce the risk of obesity and the development of chronic diseases in adulthood. The aim of the present study was to analyze selected dietary habits of school-aged children and adolescents.Material and Methods: The study involved data collected from 2,986 children and adolescents aged 10 to 18 attending se lected schools in Poland as part of the e-PE program. Results: In the study group, 76% of children and adolescents reported consuming 3-4 meals per day. A little over 11% restricted themselves to fewer meals, while the remainder adopted a pattern of 5 or more meals. Irregular eating patterns were reported by 40.7% of respondents. Conclusions: In view of the more frequent occurrence of nutritional abnormalities in children and adolescents, and thus a greater risk for the emergence of numerous consequences in later years of life, it is necessary to systematically monitor diet as a risk factor for the development of overweight and obesity to implement interventions to counteract weight gain at an early stage of adverse changes.

Health care of children and young people is part of a system of care of the so called "developmental age population." In this system, prevention plays a key role. The aim of the study was, basing on ...the obtained results, to develop guidelines for the regional pro-family policy in care of a rural child. The study included children and young people of school age, from 14 to 19 years of age. Overall the analysis included 6,971 children and adolescents and 6,971 parents. Organization of health care of children and school adolescents depended on the solutions approved by individual founding bodies of Health Care Units and Regional Patients' Funds. The withdrawal of nurses from school was observed. The tasks of prevention character performed previously by nurses employed at schools began to be implemented within the framework of primary health care in the child's place of residence. For proper implementation of the tasks of school nurses and the proper development of school hygiene, it is important to establish a uniform and maximum number of pupils per one nurse, taking into account all circumstances, and to develop standards of care for the student, taking into account the age of the student, school type, and the region.
