Background: Experiencing a myocardial infarction threatens the health and life of the patient; therefore, it can be perceived as a traumatic event. Indeed, myocardial infarction may result in negative consequences, including symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, it is also possible to experience positive effects from traumatic events, which is expressed as posttraumatic growth. Personality characteristics, including type D (i.e., distressed) personality, are among several factors that have been shown determine the occurrence of negative and positive consequences after exposure to trauma. Aim of the study: The aim of the present study was to establish the role of distressed personality in the occurrence of negative and positive effects of trauma resulting from myocardial infarction. Material and methods: The study included a total of 80 patients after myocardial infarction. Sixty-three patients aged 43–85 years (M=67, SD=10.76) were included in the final analysis. The majority of respondents were men (61.9%). Patients completed a survey with three standardized measurement tools: the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5), the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI), and the Type D Scale (DS-14). Results: Negative affectivity was positively associated with PTSD symptoms, and this association was strongest for negative changes in cognition or mood. Social inhibition was not associated with PTSD symptoms, except for increased arousal and reactivity. Both dimensions of type D personality were positively related to one factor of posttraumatic growth: changes in the spiritual sphere. Conclusions: Reducing the severity of negative affectivity may decrease PTSD symptoms and thus contribute to improved psychosocial functioning among patients who have experienced myocardial infarction.

Intestinal microflora is found at approximately 10⁴ bacteria per ml of intestinal fluid. Although this ecosystem is very diverse with dynamic changes taking place within it, there is a certain stability in the type and number of species, referred to as the core microbiome, found in 95% of the human population. Genetic variation of microorganisms is relatively small, and their functions are strictly defined and highly conservative. The microbiome exists symbiotically with the host, protecting it against colonization by pathogenic microorganisms, providing essential metabolites, and stimulating the immune system. Colonization begins prenatally and its development is greatly influenced by the course of pregnancy, method of delivery, food supplied to the child during the first moments of life, and post-birth environment. The appropriate intestinal microflora composition is a key determinant of health and homeostasis, and any intestinal dysbiosis can be associated later in life with the development of obesity, diabetes, allergies or cancer. Due to the increasing number of hospitalised pregnancies and deliveries, affecting the intestinal microflora of a newborn, efforts are being made to minimize this process and restore the newborn’s microbiome. The use of the Vaginal seeding procedure raises up great hopes, but also some fears concerning its safety. Some very simple and most natural factors have been recently also appreciated and promoted, such as breastfeeding or direct contact of the baby’s skin with the mother’s skin, which are allies to probiotic bacteria. The purpose of this paper is to emphasize the importance of microbial colonization of the human body and to present the latest and most effective procedures that are designed to correct the existing dysbiosis or to reduce the risk of its occurrence. The literature for the compilation of this study has been obtained from databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science.
