Type 2 diabetes risk factors among the unemployed

100%
Unemployment is a significant social problem which has numerous negative health consequences. Findings of numerous researches provide  data on the range of the consequences of unemployment with risk of health deterioration being one of the most important. Unemployment remains an area of interest for the following fields of science: psychology, economics, sociology. More and more researches prove that there is a link between the increase of disease occurrence and death rate and long-term unemployment. Both in Poland and all over the world a steady increase in the incidence of type 2 diabetes is being observed. World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that, taking into consideration present dynamics of changes, in 2025 there will be 300 million people diagnosed with diabetes. That is why a diabetes epidemic is such a topical issue, and according to some epidemic data this epidemic is starting to reach Poland as well. Data provided by IDF (International Diabetes Federation) show that in Poland the percentage of diabetes patients is 9,1% of the whole population and it is a little higher than the European average (8,6%). It is predicted that by 2015 the percentage will rise to 11%. Identification of adverse health behaviors and introducing actions promoting health in a given population group can prove to be beneficial for the present condition of members of a given group as well as decrease the risk connected with the occurrence of diseases associated with the progress of civilization in the future. The aim of the article is to indicate type 2 diabetes risk factors among the unemployed in Poland.
When euthanasia became legalised in Holland (2001) and Belgium (2002), problem of the so-called "good death", "death for request" became social, medical, ethical and moral world problem. Polish penal code (1987) treats euthanasia as a sort of murder. Also Medical Ethic Code (1994) regulates doctor's duties concerning patient: "doctor is not allowed to use euthanasia". Euthanasia is often treated as a suicide. According to the lastly published findings, 43 per cent of Polish are for the euthanasia.
In modern social and economic conditions the condition of genesial health (further - GH) the female population remains to one of the most acute medico-social problems, being a national security prominent aspect. Research objective: scientifically to justify a complex of the preventive actions referred on optimization of medico sanitary maintenance of women working on chemical synthesis. Materials and methods: work is based on the systemic approach to a studied problem. Following methods are applied: sanitary-and-hygienic and sanitary-statistical. Effect of factors of industrial medium were evaluated on value of hygienic parameters in premises of shops of Open Society «Grodno Nitrogen» in a place of work of the patients, received at realization of gauging at the next certification of jobs for working conditions. For an estimation of condition GH of working women of chemical synthesis results of periodic medical examination and a condition of a case rate with time disablement (further - TD) during 2008-2012 are studied. At studying of a condition of genesial health of women working on Open Society «Grodno Nitrogen» it is established, that their professional work in the conditions of effect of harmful production factors of the chemical, physical and psycho physiological nature is accompanied by its aggravation that is shown by growth of a gynecologic and extra genital case rate, and also an obstetric pathology including with temporary disablement. For prophylaxis of disturbances GH of the yielded contingent of working women introduction of a complex of sanitary-and-hygienic, socially-hygienic, treatment-prophylactic actions is necessary.

Unemployment and its problems in the Grodno Region

86%
Article is devoted to studying of unemployment as a negative social and economic phenomenon in the life of a society. As the growth of the given parameter conducts to the shortage of produce. The structure of the unemployed according to the sex both in Grodno region, and across Belarus specifies prevalence of ‘female’ unemployment. A problem there is employment of youth. The disturbing tendency is traced at studying the structure of the age of the unemployed: the greatest share of the unemployed falls at the most productive age of 20-29 and 30-49 years. In the small regional centers the rate of unemployment is higher than in the large cities. This is connected with an absence of workplaces, backwardness of the real sector of economy, a weak level of development of social services. Therefore the state policy of employment aspires to provide equal opportunities to all physically fit citizens of Belarus, gives social guarantees and indemnifications to the unemployed, etc.
A general list of people, which was made in 2002, proved, that demographs are right, natural increase level in Poland is decreasing very fast. Reason of this should be looked for in decrease of amount of child from 204 by 100 women in 1990 to 137 by 100 in 1999. Things, which caused that state, are: 30% marriages in Poland can't have children, change of hierarchy of life priorities, childless caused by choice, especially popular within group of young women with high economical status.
Introduction. Dental caries is still a social problem in many countries, including Poland. Through epidemiological studies conducted in index groups among children and adults, it is possible to monitor its progress and take appropriate action. The Podlaskie region is an area where the severity of dental caries in children has been the highest in the country for a few years, both in urban and rural settings. Objective. Evaluation and comparison of indicators of the progress of caries – Decayed Missing Filled Teeth (DMFT) – in 12-year-olds from the urban and rural areas of north-eastern Poland, measured between 2003–2010. Materials and method. In 2003 and 2010, respectively, 445 children were examined: in 2003 – 188: 101 boys, 87 girls; 98 from urban areas, 90 from rural areas, and in 2010 – 257 adolescents: 134 boys, 123 girls; 157 from urban areas and 70 from rural areas. The study protocol was strictly subordinated to the WHO study monitor guidelines. DMFT indices were evaluated in particular years. The distribution of their individual components was then compared and analyzed. The outcomes resulting from the place of residence and gender of the adolescents were taken into account. In the statistical analysis, Shapiro-Wilk test and Mann-Whitney U test were used. Results. In 2003, the mean value of DMFT was 4.76, and in 2010 it decreased to 3.36 (p<0.0001). In 2003, DMFT was 4.42 in the rural areas, and after 7 years it has risen to 4.77. There was a significant decrease in the value of the index (from 5.08 to 2.82, p<0.0001) in the urban areas. No significant differences based on gender were observed between these years. Conclusions. The values of caries intensity among 12-year-olds from the Podlaskie region, both in rural and urban areas, are still high. Among children from the rural areas, dental caries progression is more visible and has not improved during the years 2003–2010. These findings should lead to the development of programmes for the inhabitants of rural areas.
The article aims at the increasing of knowledge among young people coming from the country, studying at various types of schools – from the aspect of frequency of their drinking, age of alcohol initiation and preferences towards alcoholic drinks. We examined 5,000 young people from rural areas in Lublin province between the ears 2002- 2004. A screening questionnaire that included AUDIT test (the Alcohol Use Disorders Identifi cation Test) was used. The AUDIT was developed by the WHO to identify hazardous and harmful alcohol consumption. The results showed that both frequency and alcohol initiation age were related to type of school and sex of young people. We found that young people from rural areas of Lublin province do not differ from all-Polish trends in relation to these patterns. Some changes in the alcohol consumption model in Polish villagers were noted. Young people in the country clearly prefer beer drinks. Restrictions regarding alcohol sales to young people are not complied with. In almost half of the group we found alcoholism in families. Our fi ndings show that antialcoholic prophylaxis should be initiated in the fi rst years of childrens’ education. Preventive programmes should be based not only on school, but also on the family.
Despite urbanization of contemporary society and limitation on the environmental areas, the threat of animal attacks on people is still an important social and medical problem. Although they usually do not have serious consequences, they are nevertheless disturbing and alarming enough to make people seek professional, medical help. The aim of this study was to estimate the epidemiology and the risk rate of animal related injuries in the urban and rural population, as well as to select the characteristics of such injuries, which are distinguishable from injuries caused by other factors. The work presents a retrospective analysis of the medical records of 1,872 patients treated at the Department of Trauma and Emergency Department between 2001-2004, who suffered from animal related injuries. Our analysis led to the following conclusions: Most animal related injuries, reported to doctors, are mild injuries. The threat of animal attack is similar in urban and in rural areas, and concerns mostly men between the ages of 22-40. Injuries caused by large animals, such as a horse or a cow, require hospitalization and should be considered as high-energy injuries. The vast majority were patients who after the treatment could return to their social and occupational activities; the mortality rate in hospitalized patients with animal related injuries was higher then in other injuries, but the difference was statistically irrelevant.
Water eutrophication still causes many environmental and social problems, and so better quantification of the amount of nutrient loads discharged into surface waters is required. The basis for eutrophication analysis is data gathered in the frame of State Environmental Monitoring (SEM). In Poland, these measurements are carried out at the frequency of 6-12 times per year and serve as the basis for calculating the amount of nutrient input discharged to the sea. This article presents the results of the analysis of the representativeness of one measurement make two-hourly per day of the variability of total nutrient concentrations. For this purpose three cycles of field studies were carried out in accordance with plant growing season. The measurements were taken in November 2013, February 2014, and June 2014 in the Słupia River, at the site where it flows through the village of Charnowo (river profile). The analysis showed a significant change in the amount of total nutrient concentration during the day (up to 60% for total nitrogen and total phosphorus). This trend was maintained regardless of the stage of plant growth. Therefore, both the date for water sample collection and the time the measurement was taken become important for the subsequent evaluation of nutrient loads discharged into the sea. It is reasonable to assess the level of nutrient loads discharged into the sea not on the basis of a single measurement but based on the continuous registration of nutrients – this allows us to assign a daily average. It is also important from the point of view of the calibration of mathematical models, which are now an essential tool for analysing and forecasting environmental changes, and for which access to detailed data is very important.
