Background. The early detection of wearing-off in Parkinson disease (DEEP) observational study demonstrated that women with Parkinson’s disease (PD) carry an increased risk (80.1%) for wearing-off (WO). This post hoc analysis of DEEP study evaluates gender differences on WO and associated phenomena.Methods. Patients on dopaminergic treatment for ≥1 year were included in this multicenter observational cross-sectional study. In a single visit, WO was diagnosed based on neurologist assessment as well as the use of the 19-item wearing-off questionnaire (WOQ-19); WO was defined for scores ≥2. Post hoc analyses were conducted to investigate gender difference for demographic and clinical features with respect to WO.Results. Of 617 patients enrolled, 236 were women and 381 were men. Prevalence of WO was higher among women, according to both neurologists’ judgment (61.9% versus 53.8%,P=0.045) and the WOQ-19 analysis (72.5% versus 64.0%,P=0.034). In patients with WO (WOQ-19), women experienced ≥1 motor symptom in 72.5% versus 64.0% in men and ≥1 nonmotor symptom in 44.5% versus 36.7%, in men.Conclusions. Our results suggest WO as more common among women, for both motor and nonmotor symptoms. Prospective studies are warranted to investigate this potential gender-effect.

Suicidal behavior is one of the most pressing social and medical problems. At the same time, a number of important issues related to the suicidal behavior of schizophrenic patients, in particular gender features, remain insufficiently studied.The aim of the study – to learn the peculiarities of suicidal behavior of patients with paranoid schizophrenia taking into account the gender factor on the basis of a comparative analysis of medical records and direct clinical research.Materials and Methods. To study the peculiarities of suicidal behavior of patients with paranoid schizophrenia, taking into account the gender factor, a study of suicidal behavior was conducted by studying medical records of 407 men and 409 women and a clinical examination of 53 men and 49 women with paranoid schizophrenia.Results and Discussion. A relatively low prevalence of suicidal phenomena before the onset of schizophrenia: a suicidal ideation was found in 1.0 % of men and 1.5 % of women according to medical records and 5.7 % of men and 4.1 % of women according to the clinical examination, suicidal actions – in 1.5 % of women according to medical records. Installed that after the debut of schizophrenia, the suicidal activity of patients sharply increases: according to the analysis of medical documentation suicidal thoughts were found in 17.2 % of men and 18.8 % of women, according to the clinical survey – in 47.2 % of men and 20.4 % of women, suicide attempts were in 9.3% and 15.6%, respectively, and 26.4 %, respectively, versus 10.2 %. The significant severity of psychopathological symptoms of schizophrenia in patients with suicidal tendencies is established. The most closely associated with the presence of suicidal thoughts are negative symptoms and behavioral disorders (97.3 % among all patients, 95.7 % among men, 98.7 % among women according to the documentation analysis, 100.0 % according to the clinical survey). Suicidal actions are characterized by close association with negative symptoms.Conclusions. Patients with paranoid schizophrenia are characterized by high suicidal activity, both at the level of suicidal thoughts and at the level of suicidal actions.

Background. The study of depression and anxiety in the first episode of BAR is important for the timely detection, treatment and prevention of poor diagnosis of the disease. Objective – the study of the features of depressive and anxiety symptoms of the first episode of bipolar affective disorder, taking into account the gender factor and the clinical type. Materials and methods. We have clinically examined 65 men and 88 women diagnosed with first episode (FE) of bipolar affective disorder (BAD). Results. In patients with depressive FE of BAD, all indicators, with the exception of the undifferentiated depression indicator, in men are slightly higher than in women: the overall indicator (respectively 22.55±3.61 points and 22.16±3.03 points); adynamic depression (17.41±2.62 points and 16.76±2.48 points); pervasive depression (9.75±3.13 points and 9.69±2.66 points); depression with fear (9.34±2.55 points and 9.51±2.27 points); undifferentiated depression (4.89±0.95 points and 5.01±1.22 points); in patients with the mixed variant are not significantly different: accordingly 15,83±2,64 points and 17,00±3,32 points; 11.00±1.67 points and 11.80±1.64 points; 6.67±1.63 points and 6.60±2.07 points; 7.33±1.21 points and 8.00±1.87 points; 3.67±1.03 points and 3.40±1.14 points; in patients with a manic type there are no signs of depression. The indicators of anxiety in men and women do not differ significantly: in the depressive variant, the total indicator was accordingly 21.41±7.01 points and 23.36±7.01 points; psychic anxiety – 13.25±3.86 points and 14.35±3.87 points; somatic anxiety – 8.16±4.05 points and 9.01±4.10 points; when mixed, accordingly, 20,00±4,52 points and 22,00±4,90 points; 13.33±3.27 points and 15.20±2.39 points; 6.67±3.27 points and 6.80±3.70 points; the manic variant showed no signs of anxiety. The mean Zung score for the depressed variant was 68.82±8.30 points and 65.97±8.41 points, accordingly, for the mixed one, 44.00±5.55 points and 50.40±5.32 points, accordingly, at a manic variant 2.13±1.64 points and 2.50±1.60 points. Conclusions. Differences in manifestations of depression and anxiety in the first episode of bipolar affective disorder are determined by the clinical option; the impact of gender on these manifestations is insignificant.

Teaching in a formal learning environment mainly focuses on gaining knowledge, and scarcely on the development of pro-environmental attitudes. Knowledge can also be gained in informal learning institutions, such as zoos, and their potential use in general public education should not be neglected. This paper explores factors influencing the conservation beliefs of zoo visitors about brown bears, grey wolves, and Eurasian lynx. The study undertaken in Zoo Ljubljana (Slovenia) consisted of surveys performed in 2009 (n = 613) and in 2021 (n = 257). The levels of knowledge and education influenced both supporting and opposing beliefs about the three large carnivore species. The gender factor was less uniform: both supporting and opposing beliefs about lynx were demonstrated, but only opposing beliefs about brown bear and wolf. The study indicates that knowledge has the most significant influence on conservation beliefs, thus highlighting the importance of educational and communication activities in management and conservation actions regarding large carnivore species. The varied gender influence suggests that species-specific educational activities should be encouraged.
