When working for a long time in sedentary conditions, the human body is adversely affected by the factor of inactivity. In this regard, large groups of workers and students need post-work rehabilitation, based primarily on increasing the level of motor activity. When using existing simulators, they are faced with their insufficient motivational component.The aim of the study was to substantiate the relevance of the development of “psychophysical coupling” simulators. The dynamics of the functional status of the examined persons after using the simulators indicates the effectiveness of their use in the process of post-work rehabilitation.Funding. The study had no funding.Conflict of interests. The declare no conflict of interests.

This study illustrated the physiological and psychological effects of watching videos of different durations showing bamboo forests with varied structures. Physiological indicators, including EEG (electroencephalogram), blood pressure, skin conductance, and pulse, were monitored in 180 Chinese university students (mean age: 20.72 ± 2.56 years) while they were watching bamboo videos. Before and after watching the videos, their psychological indicators, including positive and negative moods, were measured using the Profile of Mood States questionnaire. After watching the bamboo videos of different durations, all of the physiological indicators responded to the stimulation after only 1 min. The indicators showed different trends at 1, 3 and 5 min. EEG decreased and then was maintained at a stable level after 1 min, and the high β, low β, and α waves had no significant differences between 1, 3 and 5 min. Blood pressure dropped to a stable state after 3 min, and the decline was significantly different greater after 3 min than after 1 min. Skin conductance increased for 1 to 5 min, and it did not stabilize after a long time (5 min). Pulse decreased after 1 min but increased after 5 min. After watching the videos with bamboo of varying structures, the physiological and psychological indicators showed significantly different changes. Skin conductance significantly increased (mean value: 6.78%), and the amount of sweat was more effectively reduced, thereby reducing tension, when the students viewed videos of sympodial bamboo forests compared with monopodial bamboo forests. Bamboo forests with a higher canopy density (0.83–0.85) could significantly decrease α waves (mean value: 1.50 Hz), relaxing the human body. High β and low β waves showed greater decreases, with tension reduced more effectively, when bamboo forests with a low tilt ratio (< 1.5%) were viewed. Bamboo forests with neat undergrowth could have more beneficial physiological and psychological effects on the human body.

Animals recently caged do not show as large a decrease in cell volume after exercise as those which have been confined several months. When a dog kept for a long time under sedentary conditions is exercised continuously for several weeks, a decrease in cell volume occurs in the 1st or 2nd week of exercise, but usually by the end of the 3rd week the loss has been made up. Apparently by this time the hematopoietic tissues have adapted themselves to the increased demands made upon them by the hastened rate of destruction. There is, furthermore, some anatomical evidence that such is the case.

Attempts to describe the behavioral dynamic model of the functional systems of the human body has traditionally been based on models of periodic and quasi-periodic processes (breathing, cardiac work, brain biopotentials, etc.). The paper assumes a new approach to the description of the voluntary or involuntary periodic or quasi-periodic motions and other dynamic processes (normal and pathological) in human body. It is shown that the norm is often chaotic behavioral dynamics of the state vector of the human body and the periodic or stationary modes of dynamics are typical of pathology, while in medicine for a long time the views were diametrically opposite. The paper presents the application of calculation method of quasi-attractors in estimation of biomechanical processes (sighting or Parkinson’s disease). The informational significance of the method is shown.

The subject of illness and disability has been explored by artists for a long time. Depending on the era, it was presented in different ways. Twentieth-century social movements, interested in emancipating otherness, shed new light on the perception of the human body and its causative capabilities. Currently, the artist is more a commentator of reality than its passive observer and disability is one of the most important subjects of art. The exclusion, which used to involve disabled people, seems to be passing nowadays, however the problem of ableism still exists. Contemporary artists refer to it in their works trying to face harmful stereotypes. The purpose of this article is to look at disability through the eyes of artists, to find its representations in works of art and to trace how the perception of the disabled body has changed, based on the aesthetics and canon of a given age – from the perfect body of antique to the social involvement of contemporary art.

Multicellular organisms and the saprophytic flora form complex, highly integrated chimeric systems (associative symbioses, metaorganisms) characterized by interplay between pro- and eukaryotic components. To be able to interact symbiotically microorganisms (MO) need a whole body.When grown on artificial media for a long time, symbiotic MO have to adapt to the artificial environment and gradually, though reversibly, lose their ability of associative interaction with the human body, thus causing a decrease in the therapeutic efficacy of MO-derived probiotic products. To increase the therapeutic activity of probiotic MO, they must be functionally rehabilitated.A pathological process induces development of a secondary metabolic dysbiosis; as a result, changes in the regulatory processes of an individual interfere with the restoration of the normal microflora. Therefore, functional rehabilitation of probiotic MO must take place during cultivation, while the cultivation process must replicate the whole-body conditions.

Introduction:For a long time researchers have tried to find out a way to grow tissues back to the human body in order to solve transplantation problems by offering the unique opportunity to have their organs back, working properly, in search of life dignity.Literature Review:Stem cells seem to be present in many other tissues than researchers had once thought; and in some specific sites they can be easily collected, without the need of expensive interventions. The oral cavity is one of these regions where their collection can be accomplished, with plenty of accessible sites enriched with these precious cells.Aim:The aim of this literature review is to research where in the mouth can scientists find stem cells to be used in the near future.Key-message:The aim of this literature review is to research where stem cells can be found and collected in the oral cavity.


Coronavirus or COVID-19 has shaken the world like nothing in the last 70 years or more. The approach so far appears to be focused more on preventing spread of cases rather than eradicating the pandemic. While South Korea’s efforts at preventing spread have produced commendable results, a mathematical analysis using polynomial regression indicates that more is needed than the presently employed measures to eradicate this pandemic or address the concern of fatalities on account of COVID-19. A vaccine could be that additional measure without which the pandemic may linger for a long time to come. Further, it is seen that though females appear to be more susceptible to falling prey to the pandemic, fatalities are greater among males indicating that gender may have a role in the manner in which the human body fights this pandemic

Summary Cholesterol is a white, waxy substance that always takes part in building each cell in the human body. The role of cholesterol in the normal functioning of the human body has been known for a long time, however, it is mainly due to its elevated levels and the health risk of it. It is less well known that low serum cholesterol levels are associated with serious health problems. When it comes to intensive care unit (ICU) patients, hypocholesterolemia may indicate infectious complications, impaired hepatic synthesis, significant bodily injury. Surgical patients are judged for operative trauma and perioperative stress, as well as for the resuscitation process.

Human body digitalization, in other words, “mating” with technology, is characterized by a fusion of technologies that shrinks the boundaries of physical, digital, and biological world. For a long time, humans have been considered the pinnacle of evolution: that humanity has achieved its evolutionary peak and has nothing to evolve into. Today those who try to foresee the future of mankind and his evolution are thinking of cyborg image, a combination of a biological creature and a technological masterpiece. Electronics world is progressing at a very fast rate and today there are many revolutionary ideas, projects already underway that will end up being traded tomorrow or in a few years. The three authors, specialized in electronic field, predict that with the unprecedented development of electronics, there will be also a major change of paradigm in medicine, security, transportation, as well as in industrial business and marketing arena.
