The prognosis of cardiac and other diseases is highly determined by the level of cardiopulmonary fitness (aerobic capacity). The main purposes of rehabilitative activities include the restoration and ...increase of VO
. The "classic" method is the continuous aerobic exercise (moderate-intensity continuous exercise). The higher increase of aerobic capacity in a shorter time can be developed by interval loads: shorter or longer active periods are interspersed by low-intensity rest periods. A recent form is the high-intensity interval training: 0.5-4 minutes on 70-90% of the aerobic capacity followed by a rest or low-intensity biking/walking/jogging/any activity. The sprint interval training uses a few ten seconds of maximal intensity bursts changed with longer low-intensity activities. The advantages of the interval methods are shorter training time, less monotony, higher efficiency with not more risks. Interval training methods are applied also in other pathologies without disadvantages. Orv Hetil. 2018; 159(33): 1346-1352.
In the late 1950s, Hungarian elites stepped up their attempts to open up the country to Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia. Wishing to escape the diplomatic isolation that had followed ...international condemnation of the suppression of the 1956 revolt and to steer their economy away from Stalinist-era autarkic development, elites looked to develop trade links with what would later be called the "global South." This engagement was also a product of rapid Stalinist-era industrialization: it provided Eastern Bloc states with the sense of possessing a developed socialist modernity that could now be exported to countries that were throwing off European or American imperialism and choosing socialist--or at least noncapitalist--forms of development. Here, Mark and Apor detail how an anti-imperialist internationalism played a large role in elite, intellectual, and everyday socialist culture of the 1960s and 1970s.
The relationship between popular culture and collective violence has rarely been made the object of inquiry in studies concerning post-WWII anti-Semitic atrocities. For many historians, the pogroms ...are explained as consequences of social and economic circumstances, in particular general privation and the widespread social discontent which accompanied it. For others, the violence appears to have been the outcome of political (Nazi or communist) propaganda, and it is explained by the vulnerability of these societies to exclusionary and racist ideologies. This article links the study of post-WWII collective violence with the cultural order mobilized by the perpetrators themselves. By examining a well-documented case from Hungary, the 'lynch-law' of 7 March 1946 in Szegvár, it explores how labourers (diggers) in a rural community perceived the difficulties and promises of post-war reconstruction programs and how they made sense of their collective actions in this context.

How do museums and cinema shape the image of the Communist past in today’s Central and Eastern Europe? This volume is the first systematic analysis of how visual techniques are used to understand and ...put into context the former regimes.
Yoga and other body-mind techniques enjoy an increasing popularity in many fields of health maintaining practices, in prevention of some illnesses and in curative medicine in spite of our incomplete ...knowledge about its applicability and effects. There are large differences among the various yoga-schools and the heterogeneity of indications etc. In this article a bucket of recent information is offered for the inquirers on the potential advantages of yoga (diet, mind-exercises, asanas, pranayamas) for decreasing cardio-metabolic risk factors, stabilizing mental health, and its addictive use in curative medicine. Few adverse side-effects may occur only in the case of misapplication. Its advantages are low costs, availability for broad population, and very few contraindications. Disadvantages include differences in the ability of yoga instructors and in yoga practices.
The Budapest House of Terror is one of the most notorious examples of abusing spectacular new media audiovisual technology to exhibit a politically and ideologically biased historical narrative. ...However, as the article argues, the institution is not only an eloquent example of how the careless use of 'public history' is able to manipulate the 'consumption' of history. As the article argues, the House of Terror represents another important agenda: many new 'public history' museums call themselves as memory museums. Such claims often contain an epistemological distinction between 'object-based history' and 'collective-mentality-based memory.' As the case of the House of Terror demonstrates, it is however a dangerous strategy: the idea of an 'alternative epistemology' based on 'collective memory' is basically a denial of any rational way of obtaining knowledge about the past.

Atrial fibrillation is the most frequent arrhythmia. Its "lone" form (when underlying pathology is not discovered) can be detected in a small percentage of endurance sports participants, and in ...growing numbers among veterans, probably as a result of some cardiac or other irregularities. Enhanced vagal tone and sudden sympathetic impulse, repetitive oxidative stress, inflammatory processes, enlarged atria, electric instabilization can explain the higher occurrence. Treatment of atrial fibrillation enables the affected persons to participate in regular medium-intensity exercise, 3-5 hours a week, which offers a protective role against cardiovascular, metabolic and mental illnesses.
Global solidarity with anti-imperialist struggles – which state socialist regimes in eastern Europe sought to inculcate in their populations from the 1950s onwards – constitutes a little studied form ...of modern transnational political socialization. This article explores this theme by analysing how three socialist countries – Hungary, Poland and Yugoslavia -attempted to build mass solidarity with the Vietnamese in the 1960s and 1970s. First, the article examines the political uses of transnationalism for socialist regimes in the 1960s, as the struggle for socialism in the so-called 'Third World', and support for such struggles in the West, allowed the socialist East to construct powerful images of a world turning towards its own political and moral values. Second, it explores how socialist citizens themselves reinterpreted transnational solidarity for their own ends, turning its language into a criticism of foreign policy, or state socialism at home; or using the opportunities it provided to challenge the state's right to control the public sphere. In doing so, the article suggests that we cannot understand such solidarity movements simply as top-down impositions from Moscow or national capitals; rather, they also reveal important aspects of state-society relations.
This book—the first of a three-volume overview of comparative and transnational historiography in Europe—focuses on the complex engagement of various comparative methodological approaches with ...different transnational and supranational frameworks. It considers scales from universal history to meso-regional (i.e. Balkans, Central Europe, etc.) perspectives. In the form of a reader, it displays 18 historical studies written between 1900 and 1943. The collection starts with the French and German methodological discussions around the turn of the twentieth century, stemming from the effort to integrate history with other emerging social sciences on a comparative methodological basis. The volume then turns to the question of structural and institutional comparisons, revisiting various historiographical ventures that tried to sketch out a broader (regional or European-level) interpretative framework to assess the legal systems, patterns of agrarian production, and the common ethnographic and sociocultural features.
In the third part, a number of texts are presented, which put forward a supra-national research framework as an antidote to national exclusivism. While in Western Europe the most obvious such framework was pan-European, in East Central Europe the agenda of comparison was linked usually to a meso-regional framework.
The studies are accompanied by short contextual introductions including biographical information on the respective authors.
