Comparison of LigaSure and traditional methods of surgical treatment of III and IV degree hemorrhoids in patients with diabetes mellitusHemorrhoids are submucosal nodules in the anal canal that contain venules, arterioles, and smooth muscle fibers. Hemorrhoidal disease is registered in approximately 5 % of the total population, especially after 40 years. Treatment is indicated only in symptomatic cases. These symptoms include pain, itching, bleeding, thrombosis and hemorrhoidal prolapse.Aim — to compare the clinical results of he­­mor­rhoidectomy using the electrocoagulation he­mostatic device LigaSure and the traditional Milligan—Morgan method in patients with diabetes mellitus. Materials and methods. The study included 65 patients of both genders aged 18—78 years with stage 3 and 4 hemorrhoids, who underwent hemor­rhoidec­tomy: from them, 33 subject were operated with LigaSure (the main group), and 32 patients with traditional Milligan—Morgan method (control group). The following patients’ data were analyzedretrospec­tively:gender, age, pre- and postoperative hemoglobin and hematocritlevels, surgery duration, the presence of thrombosis, the number of removed and residual hemorrhoids, hospitalization duration, early and late postoperative complications, the need for narcotic analgesics, the observationalperiod, and the time to return to normal daily activity. Results. The mean surgery duration was 16 (6—45) min in the study group and 21 (7—43) min in the control group. Narcotic analgesics in the postoperative period were used in 17 (53.1 %) patients in the control group and were not used in the study group. The timerequired for return to the normal daily activity was 6 (2—15) days in the study group and 8 (2—30) days in the control group. Conclusions. It has been shown that LigaSure gave betterresults of hemorrhoidectomy versus traditional methods in patients with diabetes mellitus in terms of surgery duration, hospitalizationperiod, postoperative pain relief needs, risk of postoperative bleeding, and time required to return to normal daily activity.

Exercise training (ET) is now recommended as an important component of a comprehensive approach to patients with heart failure (HF). Despite the existence of proven benefits of ET, many HF patients remain physically inactive. Introducing telerehabilitation (TR) may eliminate most of the factors that result in the currently low number of patients undergoing outpatient-based rehabilitation programmes and thus increase the percentage of those who will undergo cardiac rehabilitation. Despite the fact that TR is highly applicable and effective, there are few papers dedicated to the study of TR in HF patients. Until recently, only a couple of home rehabilitation-monitoring models have been presented, from the simplest, i.e. heart rate monitoring and transtelephonic electrocardiographic monitoring, through to the more advanced tele-electocardiogram (tele-ECG) monitoring (via a remote device) and realtime electrocardiographic and voice transtelephonic monitoring. It seems the last two are the most useful and reliable. Based on published studies, TR in HF patients could be equally effective as and provide similar improvements in health-related quality of life to standard outpatient cardiac rehabilitation. In addition, adherence to cardiac rehabilitation seems to be better during TR. Due to disease-related limitations, TR seems to be a viable alternative for comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation in HF patients. Further studies are needed to confirm the utility of this type of rehabilitation in routine clinical practice, including its cost-effectiveness. Because of the diversity of technological systems, it is necessary to create a platform to ensure compatibility between the devices used in telemedicine.

Az akut coronariaintervenció korában a myocardialis infarctust elszenvedő beteg nagyon gyorsan, néhány nap után haza vagy rehabilitációra kerül. A betegeknek a halálozása ugyanakkor az infarktust követő első hónapban a legmagasabb. Az elsősorban veszélyeztetettek a jelentős szívizomvesztést elszenvedő, csökkent szisztolés bal kamrai funkciójú betegek. Fontos lehet ezért ezen betegeknél – a telemedicina fejlődésével lehetőséget teremtő – új módszerek kidolgozása a ritmuszavarok otthoni monitorozására. Célkitűzés: Annak vizsgálata, hogy internetalapú folyamatos otthoni aritmiamonitorozás milyen biztonságossággal alkalmazható akut myocardialis infarctust elszenvedő, coronariaintervención átesett, csökkent balkamra-funkciójú betegeknél a hazabocsátás utáni első hónapban. Módszer: Számos transztelefonos EKG-monitor-rendszer működik, de a szerzők egy olyan új technológiával szerzett tapasztalataikat ismertetik, ahol a beteg aktivációjától független, folyamatos EKG-észlelés zajlik interneten keresztül. Az internettel nem rendelkező betegeknél kifejlesztésre került egy mobil internetre csatlakozó vevőegység is. Eredmények: Tíz, infarktus után otthonába távozó, 40% alatti ejekciós frakcióval rendelkező betegnél végeztünk monitorozást. A mérések kumulatív ideje összesen 170 nap volt. A teljesen zajmentes időszak 98% volt, hibamentes EKG 99% volt. Hatvanhat összes alarm átlagos nyugtázási ideje 27 szekundum volt. Az alarm/nap 0,39-nak adódott, és a riasztások pozitív prediktivitása 0,106 volt. Az összes alarmidő 29,8 percnek adódott, ami napi bontásban 10,5 szekundumot jelentett. Következtetések: Módszerünk alkalmasnak látszik a kórházból hazakerült betegek otthoni monitorozására úgy, hogy viszonylag nagy százalékban lehet hibamentes EKG-t regisztrálni a kifejlesztett mellpánt segítségével. Az alacsony riasztási idő azt jelenti, hogy sok beteg egyszerre történő monitorozása is kellő biztonsággal megoldható. A fenti módszert és eredményeinket azért tartjuk fontosnak bemutatni, mert ilyen „szoros” otthoni monitorozásról sem publikációt, sem terméket, illetve szolgáltatást nem találtunk.

Cardiovascular disease is one of the major diseases that threaten the human health. But the existing electrocardiograph (ECG) monitoring system has many limitations in practical application. In order to monitor ECG in real time, a portable ECG monitoring system based on the Android platform is developed to meet the needs of the public. The system uses BMD101 ECG chip to collect and process ECG signals in the Android system, where data storage and waveform display of ECG data can be realized. The Bluetooth HC-07 module is used for ECG data transmission. The abnormal ECG can be judged by P wave, QRS bandwidth, and RR interval. If abnormal ECG is found, an early warning mechanism will be activated to locate the user’s location in real time and send preset short messages, so that the user can get timely treatment, avoiding dangerous occurrence. The monitoring system is convenient and portable, which brings great convenie to the life of ordinary cardiovascular users.

The results of the study found that the responsibility of religious education of children in the family of Tablighi Jama'ah differed in terms of several conditions, namely first, when parents were not going to khuruj where both parents were responsible for children's education; secondly, when the father goes khuruj, then the mother is responsible for everything including children's education; third, when both parents go khuruj, then the responsibility of the child is left to other family members such as grandparents or their first adult children; and fourth, when the child goes to khuruj, where parents are responsible for children's religious education both mother and father. The pattern of the religious education in the Tablighi Jama'ah family in the village of Bolang is formed from several similarities held in the implementation of religious education, one of which is the daily activity that is carried out by the Tablighi Jama'at family. Al-Qur'an becomes one of the material given to children in the ta'lim. Children are taught how to read the Qur'an and memorize short letters such as Surat al-Falaq, al-Ikhlas, and so on. In addition to al-Qur'an, in this ta'lim there is a special study in the Tablighi Jama'ah, which is reading the book of fadhilah ‘amal, and the last is mudzakarah six characteristics.

Leading with Pedagogical Tact- a Challenge in Children's Sports in Sweden The purpose of this article is to elucidate and problemize meetings between children and leaders in children's sport. The competitive sport is high valuated in the Swedish society and sport for children is central in the Swedish youth politics. The foundation in Swedish sport, as well as in the other Nordic countries, has for a long time relied on voluntary commitment. Approximately 650 000 people are voluntary engaged as leaders in sport in Sweden and 70% of children between 7 and 14 years compete in sports clubs. There is, however, a tension in the Swedish sport system. The sports for children has double missions - ‘association nurturing’ and ‘competition nurturing’, missions which are not always in harmony. In the daily activity it is the voluntary leaders who have to deal with these missions, which creates a field of tension. In this article I argue for a bridge between these missions by a leadership based on pedagogical tact. The empirical outlook is a narrative based on statements from leaders, children and parents in a study dealing with voluntary leadership within children's football. In the end I argue that focusing on this bridge is a win-win situation, both for children and sports.
