The purpose of the study was to analyze the materials of temporary disability due to illness or injury of employees engaged in various types of activities. The data is presented for two years (2018-2019). One group - employees of offices, the second group-employees of working specialties. In each group of employees, temporary disability sheets received in connection with an injury or illness for two years (2018-2019) were analyzed. A number of relative indicators that do not depend on the number of employees of these organizations are determined: the multiplicity of disability (the number of cases of disability per 1 employee with disability); the duration of disability (the number of days of disability per 1 case of disability). It is shown that the share of sick leaves for diseases and domestic injuries among employees of the office and industrial organization differs in the age groups: 20-29 years and 30-39 years: making up, respectively: 10.1% and 83.7%; 60.6% and 77.7%. The multiplicity of domestic injuries in employees of a production organization is 1.4 times higher than the corresponding indicator of office employees, equal to 1.0, and the average duration of each case of domestic injuries in employees of a production organization is shorter than in office employees by 2.3-2.6 times. The average duration of each case of the disease is longer in office employees than in employees of a production organization: 9.9 days and 6.3 days on average per year, respectively.

Contact dermatitis is a frequent skin disorder related to environmental and occupational etiological factors, which could potentially affect all age groups, as well as both genders. The current study is aimed at exploring the patterns of contact sensitization with respect to the population’s occupational patterns in Greece. A retrospective analysis was performed in a cohort of 1978 patients from 2014 to 2016. Patients were divided into two categories; blue collars (BlC) and white collars (WhC), as well as detailed occupation was considered. Separation was performed on the basis of their profession, i.e., labor workers and handicraftsmen were sorted to the BlC group, while office employees were sorted to the WhC group. The common allergen in all occupational subgroups was nickel sulphate. The three most prevalent allergens in both BlC and WhC were nickel sulphate 5%, fragrance mix (I) 8%, and Balsam of Peru 25%. WhC males were uniquely sensitized to colophony 20% and formaldehyde 2%, and WhC females were uniquely sensitized to 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (CMIT) and neomycin sulphate 20%. Sensitization to allergens manifested occupation-specific patterns. Allergic contact dermatitis surveillance is of great importance towards the clinical and systematic understanding of the disease, especially with respect to the patient’s occupational profile.

Acetonemic vomiting is a syndromic condition that occurs in 4–7-year-old children more often than in the other age groups (t = 53,5; p(0,001). Girls are more exposed to acetonemia (t = 55,5; p(0,001), but its severity is more expressed in boys (the average duration of ketoacidosis for boys is 1,58 days, for girls — 1,17 days (t = 3,8; p(0,001). There is also more expressed ketoacidosis in pre-school children as compared with toddlers (t = 2,9; p(0,01) and compared with school-age children (t = 2,8; p(0,01). There are no reliable gender differences in ketoacidosis’ severity. Now the number of children hospitalized to Ivano-Matreninskaya state pediatric hospital with cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) has increased by 8 times in the last 10 years.

Acute cholecystitis ranks second in the incidence of urgent surgical diseases in hospitals in Ukraine. Despite a marked improvement in the treatment results, the lethality after emergency operations (9,4-37%) for acute cholecystitis complicated by peritonitis remains several times higher than with routine surgical interventions. Objectives — development of rational surgical tactics and evaluation of the effectiveness of treatment of acute cholecystitis and its complications in patients of different age groups, with different pathomorphological forms of acute cholecystitis. The result of treatment of 203 patients was presented: 75 (37,5%) were operated on an emergency basis, 73 (36,5%) urgently, and 52 (26%) in a deferred period. 173 (86.5%) patients were operated using laparoscopic technologies. Intraoperative cholangiography was performed in 16 (9,3%) patients during laparoscopic interventions. In 17 (8,5%) patients, “open” operations were performed. All patients underwent drainage of the abdominal cavity with one or more drains in view of the presence of peritonitis. The average duration of the preoperative period was 1.5 days, the total duration of treatment with LC was 4.5 days, and the total duration of treatment with OC was 10.8 days. So, in the early stages of the development of acute cholecystitis, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is effective. The use of lifting systems for laparoscopic cholecystectomy is advisable in elderly and senile patients, with concomitant diseases of the heart and lungs.

The present study aimed at examining the relationship between self-efficacy and organizational commitment with job satisfaction of office employees of Esfarayen County. Research method can be categorized as descriptive, correlation research. The study population consisted of all office employees who worked in 2014-2015 in offices in Esfaraen County of which 248 employees were selected using stratified random sampling. Data was collected through administrating three questionnaires, Sherer self-efficacy, Meyer and Allen organizational commitment and Barry Field-Roth job satisfaction. The results of data analysis using Pearson's correlation and multivariate regression showed that there was a significant positive correlation between self-efficacy and organizational commitment with job satisfaction of employees, and they predict it positively. Among different types of organizational commitment, affective commitment, normative commitment and continuance commitment were of significant positive relationship with job satisfaction of employees; however, only affective commitment and continuous commitment predicted it positively. The results obtained from data analysis using independent two-sample t-test showed that there was no difference between male and female employees' job satisfaction. The results of one-way analysis of variance showed that there was a significant difference in different age groups, different years of services and different levels of education for job satisfaction of employees. The result suggested that employees who had higher organizational commitment and self-efficacy were of higher job satisfaction.

Average duration of pro-estrous, estrous, met-estrous and di-estrous stages in one oestrous cycle of female Indian gerbil, Tatera indica was found 0.61, 0.38, 0.62 and 1.37 days, respectively with total average duration of one cycle to be 2.99 days. Pairing of cyclic female gerbils with mature males resulted in 88% breeding success within gestation period of 21-24 days. Post-partum estrous was observed immediately after parturition in females not separated from males. Observations on onset of sexual maturity in female pups of seven different age groups (30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105 and 120 days old) revealed significant increase in body weight and weights of ovary and uterus, plasma level of estradiol and activity of 3â-HSD in ovarian tissue with increasing age. Sexual maturity in female T. indica was attained at age of 3-4 months. It is therefore suggested to apply control measures before they reproduce and cause damage to crops.

SUMMARYA seroepidemiological study of the prevalence of mumps virus specific antibodies reveals a pattern of endemic peristence on the island of St Lucia in the West Indies. In the unvaccinated population the proportion seropositive rose rapidly in the child age classes to attain a stable plateau close to unity in value in the teenage and adult age groups. The average age at infection was estimated to be between 3 and 4 years of age and the average duration of detectable levels of maternally derived antibodies was approximately 3 months. Analyses based on mathematical models of the transmission dynamics of the virus suggest that in excess of 75% of each cohort of 1-to 2-year-old children must be effectively immunized to eliminate mumps virus transmission. A mumps radial haemolysis test, developed for quantitative measurements of antibody, is discussed.

Objective changes taking place in the field of industry dictate new requirements for the organization of industrial production, which are qualitatively different from the traditional ones. In this article, using general scientific methods, the network form of organization is considered as a specific coordinating structure, which is fundamentally different from both the varieties of hierarchically, vertically oriented struc-tures, and market coordination mechanisms; generalized trends and patterns of development of organiza-tional structures, explaining the emergence of the network phenomenon in industry. The research results can be considered as a fundamental basis for studying the nature of network structures as a result of the evolution of forms of production organization, as well as for identifying and substantiating the possibilities for the devel-opment of industrial innovations using this tool.

Difficulties with face recognition increase from adolescence to adulthood in autism, reflecting a lack of typical late development. We examined whether this reflects differences in the development of patterns of fixation to eyes and mouths during face recognition. Children, adolescents, and adults (aged 7–30) with and without autism completed the Cambridge Face Memory Test while gaze was recorded. Average duration and number of fixations were calculated for eyes and mouth regions of interest, defined individually for each face image in the task. All groups and age groups made more and longer fixations to eyes than mouths. However, during face memorization, typically developing children and adults, but not adolescents, made more fixations to eyes than did their peers with autism. During face recognition, typically developing children and adults made shorter fixations on mouths than did their peers with autism; this pattern was reversed in adolescence, with adolescents with autism making more fixations to mouths than typically developing adolescents. Results suggest that group differences in patterns of fixations to faces change with age. Furthermore, different relationships between patterns of fixations and face recognition performance in typical development and autism suggest that these differences contribute, at least in part, to difficulties in autism.

1 A retrospective study, 1980 to 1989 inclusive, of hospital admission cases due to insect and scorpion stings or bites was carried out in the six main central hospitals of Zimbabwe's four main cities. 2 A total of 92 cases were recorded and analysed. This constituted 1.5% of all hospital admissions for poisoning which were analysed during that time. 3 Of the 92 cases the highest number of victims were seen in the 2-to-5-year age group (29.3%), followed by the 6-to-10-year age group (23.9%). In other age groups the incidence of poisoning was distributed approximately evenly with the 41 to 50 and the over 60-year age groups having the least number of victims, (2.2%). 4 The main groups of insects associated with poisoning were bees, 44.6%; wasps, 8.7%; and spiders 8.7%. A further 32.6% of the insect stings were not specified. Scorpion stings accounted for 5.4% of incidences. 5 No fatalities occurred. 6 Treatment consisted mainly of the administration of promethazine, as an antihistamine in 35% of the cases, steroids (16.5% of the cases), perhaps for their anti-allergic effects, and paracetamol, a mild analgesic, (14.7% of the cases). Interestingly, 22.6% of the cases were given an antibiotic (14.1 % of which were penicillins). Adrenaline was administered in only 1.7% of the cases. 7 The majority of the recorded cases, 49.4%, were hospitalized for at least a day and the average duration of hospitalization was 6.4 days.

Background: Gastrointestinal (GI) Perforation is an important emergency situation that usually requires prompt surgery. Prompt detection of Gastrointestinal (GI) tract perforation is important for the diagnosis of life-threatening conditions in patients with acute abdomen. A number of causes can lead to Gastrointestinal tract perforations (blunt or penetrating trauma, peptic ulcer, inflammatory disease, foreign body, a neoplasm or iatrogenic factors); and has variable clinical presentations, particularly in the early clinical course. Present study aimed at investigating the different modes of treatment and complications associated with non-traumatic gastrointestinal perforation.Methods: This cross-sectional observational study was carried out on patients of Department of general surgery at Late Lakhiram Agrawal Memorial Government Medical college (LAMGMC) Raigarh, Chhattisgarh, India from September 2014 to August 2016. A total 100 adult subjects (both male and females) of all age groups were included in this study.Results: Operative management (44%), conservative management 38% and 18% of cases were managed with Peritoneal drainage under local anaesthesia (LA). Most common complications of peptic perforation cases were toxaemia (32.3%), wound gaping (17.9%) and respiratory complications (11%). Most common complications of typhoid perforation cases were toxaemia (50%), respiratory complications (32.4%), wound infection (22.2%) and wound gaping (18.5%). Most common complications of Appendicular perforation cases were wound gaping (50%) and toxaemia (40%). The average duration of stay in hospital was 16.52 days.  The average duration of stay in hospital of Peptic perforation was 17.3 days, typhoid perforation 18.3 days, Appendicular perforation 18.5 days and for other perforation was 12 days.Conclusions: Majority of the cases undergone for operative management and most frequently developed complications were toxaemia followed by wound gaping and respiratory complications. The average duration of stay in hospital was nearly same for all cases and the stay was less in patients who were managed conservatively.
