Sects and what is called “new religion” are today a fairly widespread phenomenon, and one to which young people are particularly vulnerable. Their negative impact is manifested, inter alia, by the ...breaking down of an individual’s personality, instilling a decreased sense of security in the current environment in order to degrade one’s view of self and society, taking advantage of a state of fear and threats. The leaders of groups that fall under the umbrella of “new religion” exploit individuals in order to commit crimes. The article examines the styles and functions of selected religious movements and sects and presents the actions taken by national governments and supranational organisations to protect the public against the destructive impact of new religious movements and sects.
Left ventricular dysfunction was detected by bioimpedance measurement in patients with coronary artery disease during exercise bicycle test. The impedance cardiography gave the opportunity to monitor ...haemodynamic trends parameters. The aim of the study was to evaluate the haemodynamic changes during an exercise test in patients after coronary artery revascularisation. Material and Methods: 30 consecutive patients (age 60±9 y.) included into the cardiac rehabilitation program were divided into 2 groups; EF<50% (6 patients) and EF>50% (24 patients). Routine bicycle exercise tolerance test (EET) was performed simultaneously with four-electrode impedance cardiogram. ECG, blood pressure, Thoracic Impedance and the first derivative dz/dt were recorded. Stroke volume (SV), cardiac output, contractility indices (HI, ACCI), vascular peripheral resistance were calculated for each cardiac evolution. Trends of the parameters were analysed. Results: In patients with EF<50% the 3 SV trend patterns were observed. SV decreased 1.5 minute before the exercise time limit in 2 patients. SV was in the same level in 2 and increased slowly only during the first two steps in 2 ones.

Aims The heritability of aerobic power and of the response to physical training has been shown in healthy subjects. β1-Adrenergic receptor (β1AR) function affects exercise performance. This study ...aims to investigate whether the Ser49Gly and Gly389Arg polymorphisms of the β1AR gene or their haplotypes are associated with aerobic power or its response to physical training in coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods and results Nine hundred and thirty-five biologically unrelated Caucasian patients with CAD who had exercised until exhaustion during graded bicycle testing at baseline and after completion of 3 months of exercise training from 1990 to 2001 (n=1095) were eligible for inclusion in the CAREGENE (CArdiac REhabilitation and GENetics of Exercise performance) study. Polymorphisms were detected using the invader assay (Third Wave Technologies(TM), Madison, Wisconsin, USA). Patients with the Gly49Gly genotype had significantly higher covariate-adjusted aerobic power at baseline than those with Ser49Ser and Ser49Gly (P<0.05). Adjusted aerobic power at baseline was highest in the Ser49-Gly389/Gly49-Gly389 and Gly49-Arg389/Gly49-Arg389 haplotype combinations. Aerobic power increased significantly (P<0.001) with physical training. There was no association with the effect of physical training. Conclusion Ser49Gly and haplotype combinations of Ser49Gly and Gly389Arg of the β1AR gene are associated with aerobic power, but not with the response to physical training in patients with CAD included in the CAREGENE study.

This ...study aims to investigate whether the Ser49Gly and Gly389Arg polymorphisms of the beta(1)AR gene or their haplotypes are associated with aerobic power or its response to physical training in coronary artery disease (CAD).

Zdecydowanie nie jest to jednak propozycja dla miłośników filmowych słodkości. W tym iście hiszpańskim gabinecie osobliwości stara się przetrwać trio głównych bohaterów - alkad Paco (Miguel Ángel ...Silvestre), Elena (Megan Montaner), czyli miejscowa weterynarka, oraz ojciec Vergara (Eduard Fernández). Iglesia bez ostrzeżenia wylewa przy tym na widza wiadro krwi, zostawiając go z pytaniem: czy jesteś gotowy na więcej? W charakterystycznym dla siebie stylu rezygnuje bowiem z filmowej introdukcji, wtrącając bohaterów (a przy tym i widzów) w sam środek akcji. Dalej nie tylko reinterpretuje biblijną historię zbawienia, ale otwiera przed nami wachlarz popkulturowych inspiracji, do których w wywiadach śmiało się przyznaje.
A szkoda, bo filmy te to znakomite egzemplifikaqe przemian zachodzących w tamtejszym społeczeństwie i zmieniającego się na przestrzeni lat wizerunku kobiety. Popularne españolady, wzorowane na ...eskapistycznych filmach hollywoodzkich, wykorzystywały znane i łubiane gatunki komediowo-muzyczne (np. zarzuele), odwoływały się do lokalnego folkloru (głównie andaluzyjskiego), upowszechniając przy tym wizerunek szczęśliwej kobiety spełniającej się w roli gospodyni domowej bądź z zapałem podążającej za życiowym celem, jakim było małżeństwo. Narodowe kino popularne (głównie komedie muzyczne, melodramaty i dramaty historyczne), bo taki niepisany status osiągały filmy finansowane przez państwo, sięgało również po metody produkcyjno-promocyjne rodzącego się za Oceanem star systemu. Filmy, choć wciąż odległe od problematyki społecznej, odnosiły się subtelnie do tematów, które do tej pory były bezwzględnie zakazane. Jednym z nich był rozwód, który wcześniej jako temat tabu praktycznie nie istniał. Caudillo towarzyszy tu żonie i córeczce, która - próbując zachować pozory naturalności - recytuje wyuczony apel i pozdrowienia dla dzieci na całym świecie. Kluczowym wydarzeniem stał się dla nich zorganizowany w 1955 roku Kongres Kinematograficzny w Salamance, w którym udział wzięli zarówno studenci, członkowie klubów filmowych, filmowcy i krytycy filmowi, jak i przedstawiciele władzy. Dla panien, które z różnych powodów nie zawarły związku małżeńskiego, istniała jednak szansa na społeczne rozgrzeszenie. Zdanie zaczerpnięte z „Don Kichota" pada z ust głównego bohatera, który pała chorobliwą zazdrością o swoją podopieczną. Dla przykładnej starej panny (w tej roli rewelacyjny José Luis López Vázquez) niespodziewana konieczność wejścia na rynek pracy bez wykształcenia i nawet najmniejszego doświadczenia zawodowego okazuje się niemożliwa.
In 927 biologically unrelated Caucasian patients with coronary artery disease it was investigated whether the NcoI restriction fragment length polymorphism of the muscle-specific creatine kinase ...(CKMM) gene is associated with aerobic power and with the response to physical training. Physical training significantly (P<0.001) increased peak oxygen consumption in the GG, AG and AA NcoI genotypes. Covariate-adjusted peak oxygen consumption at baseline, after training and the response to training were not different across CKMM NcoI genotypes.
The aim of this article is to present the motive of cannibalism which appears in chosen film contexts. I am interested in how cannibalism can be used as a cultural communication code and how it exist ...as functional movie thread. Based on the theories of Mary Douglas, Sigmund Freud, Louis-Vincent Thomas, and Claude Leví-Strauss. I present several movie examples and I propose subjective interpretation of the cannibalism motive in the films in several aspects: cannibalism as the symbolic tool of revenge (The cook, the thief, the wife and her lover), as an allegory of consumerism (Jan Švankmajer’s movies), need of meat as determinant of behavior of movie characters (Delicatessen), and cannibalism as grotesque form of helping each other (Fried Green Tomatoes).
