The analysis of three years of primary disease incidence of flight and ground personnel in the Far North is presented as well as the analysis of the main meteorological factors, their complex characteristics and amount of respiratory diseases in flight crews on the day of observation and the subsequent 4 days. Assessment of influence of meteorological factors was carried out simultaneously in two directions: determined differential impact on the body of flight crews of each meteorological factor and simultaneous identification of their complex actions. It was found that pilots (navigators), showed a statistically significant (p0,001) increase in the average incidence of diseases compared with average index of primary morbidity from other members of the flight crews. It was revealed that flight crews serving in the area of the Far North for less than one year, shows a statistically significant (p0,01) increase in the average index of primary morbidity, compared with flight crews serving in the area of the Far North more than one year. Thus, a statistically significant increase in the average primary incidence of the pilots (navigators), compared with the average indicators of the primary morbidity from other members of the flight crews and ground troops means that physiological adaptation of pilots (navigators) to the Extreme North occurs with a larger psychoemotional stress than in soldiers of other specialties. The obtained results on the incidence of primary aircrew in the Far North allow to better understand mechanisms of influence of health state on the successful adaptation to extreme climatic conditions.

Abstract The scope of the research is to investigate and to present the human being as a whole. The article presents a series of experiments regarding the human being. It reveals, based on proven facts, such as video footages and scientific measurements, that the human being is not only just a simple physical body. It is a complex structure with an energy shell and a soul with an essential role and these details have to be studied more thoroughly in the future. As the human body uses energy, specific measurement practices are applied. The authors used an Electro Photonic Imaging Device and a Thermal Vision Camera Device because the measured energy frequencies are not within the optical visual frequency range. The general and the detailed human body health state can be evaluated using the EPI Device. Despite the classical medicine approach that considers only the physical component of the body, the article proves the existence and reveals a wider behavior of the human being from the supplementary point of view which is often called spirit, soul, ethereal body or just entity. It is also shown that the human being is capable of evaluating and healing by own means. Thus, a study case is presented regarding the health state evolution during a period of one year, while the human body is continuously taking care of itself. The complete control of the entire human being leads to a continuous good health and also to a good physical and psychic state, with increased performances in all activities. All these achievements can be useful to also obtain a very good job. The objective of the authors are to proof that the soul exists and also that every person can act to improve the own health, the general state and so to rich easier the happiness.

The aim of the study was to examine the usefulness of The Picus 3 Sonic Tomograph to assess the health state of trees of monumental sizes, which are an important part of the cultural landscape. In the study there were selected tree species Tilia cordata, Gingko biloba and Ulmus glabra growing in the vicinity of Lublin in different habitat conditions. Changes in the internal structure of the tree trunks were shown on the colour tomograms. Two tested specimens of Tilia cordata located in Radawiec Duży were intended to be cut down due to the construction of the ring road of Lublin. This made it possible to compare the obtained tomograms with the actual state of the inside of tree trunks after cutting down the examined trees. The results of Picus tomography Ulmus glabra and Gingko biloba growing in the historic park in Czesławice were confirmed by a visual assessment of trees. In each case the number of installed sensors influenced the image resolution and accuracy of the obtained tomograms. Diagnostics using sound waves is important in assessing the state of health of each tree, but it is especially recommended for testing of valuable trees. It allows for early diagnosis and selection of such protective actions to reduce to a minimum the destructive impact study on the body of the plant.

Allergic rhinitis is a common disease that significantly worsens the patient’s quality of life. In some cases, the disease can be life threatening. Severe attacks of bronchial obstruction may occur in patients with allergic rhinitis. The widespread prevalence of allergic rhinitis in adults and children, consistent increase in disease incidence constitutes a great medical and social issue. Treatment for allergic rhinitis should be aimed at reaching increased remission duration, preventing the exacerbation of the disease and educating patients to maintain control over the symptoms of the disease. A challenge that otolaryngologists and allergists face is to restore nasal breathing in patients with allergic rhinitis. The updated approach to the challenge is to suggest treatment that takes into account the pathophysiological mechanisms that occur not only in the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity, but throughout the body, in particular, in the intestine.

Background: Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) post dental extraction is post dentalextraction complication with post radiation cancer theraphy. Objective : to present rare case, ORN post dental extraction with post radiation Ca nasopharing therapy 3 years ago.Case Management: A 54 years old patient reported to the dental out-patient department with a chief complaint of pus discharge from right buccal since post dental extraction 6 months ago. He gave a history of a nasopharing Carcinoma with histopatology as squamous cell carcinoms 3 years ago and radio therapy but no surgery. Intraoral examination, exposed necrotic bone found from right lower retromolar area 46 with pus discharge. Radiographic view was likely squester. Local surgical debridement and the sequestrectomy was undertaken with general anaesthesia. Antibiotic injection treatment was ceftriaxon 2x 1gram, infus metronidazol 3x500 mg and ketorolac 3x1 ampul, the patient was treated for 3 days and educated to maintain his oral hygiene with povidone iodine gargle.Discussion: Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is late effect of radiation therapy thatresults in irreversible tissue death, which is clinically observed as bony exposure for more than 3 months duration. The mandible is affected more often than the maxilla or any other bones of head and neck region. The incidence of ORN in the mandible is reported to be between 2% and 22% and most often affects the body of the mandible. Ideal time is one year minimal post radiotherapy to get maximal vascularization for optimal healing. But immunity factor and radiation doses can trigger emergense ORN.Conclusion: Need time consideration, clinic analysis and pathologys before doing dental extraction for post radiotherapy cancer cases to prevent ORN.

ObjectiveWe report a case of a 58-year-old gentleman who was hospitalised intermittently for one year due to treatment resistant schizophrenia. Prior to hospitalisation he had been prescribed standard antipsychotics for decades without full resolution of positive psychotic symptoms. During his final admission lasting six months he was guarded, suspicious, irritable, constantly paced the corridor and displayed thought block and paranoid persecutory delusions. He would not enter the assessment room or allow any blood or ECG monitoring, however, he was compliant with oral medication. He was successfully treated with high dose olanzapine (40mg/day) and was discharged to the community. The aim of this study is to bring awareness and add to the body of evidence for the use of high-dose olanzapine in patients with treatment resistant schizophrenia in whom a trial of clozapine is not possible.Case reportThe patient gave written consent for this case report to be written and presented. An extensive literature review was performed and key papers were identified. Discussion focuses on the key areas in the literature.DiscussionThis case demonstrates that high-dose olanzapine can be used effectively as an alternative to clozapine in treatment resistant schizophrenia.ConclusionThis case highlights the need for further evaluation of high-dose olanzapine as an alternative to clozapine in patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia.

Persistent organic pollutants represent a serious global threat to human health and the environment. They have certain properties: resistance to decomposition, bioaccumulation, extreme toxicity, even at ultra-low concentrations, ability to transboundary transfer and deposition. Unfortunately, there is no separate normative and legislative base regulating production of persistent organic pollutants in Ukraine. All norms and rules regulating such pollutants formation are included in a large number of various legislative acts and this does not allow systematization and specification of the actions associated with treatment of POPs. The purpose of this work is to evaluate the main sources of unintentional formation of persistent organic pollutants (using Odessa as an example). As part of the study it was established that the main sources of unintentional formation of POPs in Odessa are: combustion of organic fuels by stationary and mobile sources; production of building materials; open landfills of solid household waste; smoking of meat and fish products; functioning of crematoria; tobacco smoking; functioning of the city sewage system. The analysis of the legislative base of Ukraine is carried out which resulted in making a conclusion that there is no separate normative and legislative base regulating production of persistent organic pollutants in Ukraine. For the first time the list of the main sources of unintentional formation of these pollutants was established for Odessa with estimation, using the most advanced European methods, of the mass of persistent organic pollutants formed from each type of above-stated production facilities, and estimation of the total mass of their generation over the territory of Odessa. Since different techniques give results in different units of measurement, a transition to one unit of measurement was performed. Based on the concept of maximum permissible concentration (MPC), the permissible number of molecules of POPs equivalent to 2,3,7,8- tetrachlorodibenzodioxin (TCDD) which can enter the body of one person through respiratory organs was calculated. A comparison with the number of molecules of 2,3,7,8-TCDD entering the atmosphere in a permissible quantity per 1 citizen of was carried out and corresponding conclusions based on calculations of unintentional formation of POPs in Odessa during one year were made. Also, based on the obtained results, priority sources of unintentional production of persistent organic pollutants were established which allows correct and timely implementation of appropriate measures to reduce formation of these polluting substances.

Avocado fruit is one of 10 fruits that can relieve stress, because it contains hormones and nutrients that can have a calming effect on the body. East Java Province is one of the centers for fruit production in Indonesia, including avocado fruit center, precisely in Ngliman Village, Sawahan District, Nganjuk Regency. However, this does not guarantee the high income of avocado farmers, which is caused by, among other things, price fluctuations during the harvest season, unoptimal farming management, pest attacks, and others. The purpose of this study was to determine the farmer income of avocado farming, and the factors that influence it, as well as the factors that most influence the income of avocado farming. Using quantitative descriptive research methods and deliberately choosing the research area in Ngliman Village, the research was conducted in a leading area of avocado farming in Sawahan District, Nganjuk Regency. Sampling method employed a simple random sampling of avocado farmers who have been producing for more than 10 years. From the results of the analysis, it can be seen that the income of avocado farmers in one year per hectare was IDR 9,624,550, and the land area factor affecting the income of avocado farming.Buah alpukat adalah salah satu dari 10 macam buah-buahan yang dapat meredakan stress, karena mengandung hormon dan nutrisi yang dapat memberikan efek tenang pada tubuh. Propinsi Jawa Timur adalah salah satu sentra produksi buah-buahan di Indonesia, diantaranya sentra buah alpukat, tepatnya yaitu di Kabupaten Nganjuk, Kecamatan Sawahan, Desa Ngliman. Namun demikian belum menjamin tingginya pendapatan petani alpukat, yang disebabkan antara lain, fluktuasi harga pada musim panen, belum maksimalnya pengelolaan usahataninya, adanya serangan hama, dan lain sebagainya. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pendapatan usahatani alpukat, dan untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor produksi yang mempengaruhinya, serta untuk mengetahui faktor produksi (umur, tingkat pendidikan, pengalaman atau lama usahatani, dan luas lahan) yang paling berpengaruh terhadap pendapatan usahatani alpukat. Menggunakan metode penelitian deskriptif kuantitatif, dan secara sengaja memilih daerah penelitian di Desa Ngliman, karena merupakan daerah unggulan penghasil buah alpukat di Kecamatan Sawahan, Kabupaten Nganjuk. Pengambilan sampel secara simple random sampling terhadap petani alpukat yang sudah berproduksi lebih dari 10 tahun. Dari hasil analisis dapat diketahui pendapatan petani alpukat dalam satu tahun per hektarnya sebesar Rp9.624.550-, dan faktor luas lahan saja yang berpengaruh terhadap pendapatan usahatani alpukat.
