Self-liking  behavior that has become a lifestyle for teenagers who are active users of social media in the technology era has the potential to cause a decrease in learning achievement which is part of the mastery of knowledge over skills from student learning outcomes.However, empirical studies that explore self-adjustment in learning for adolescents with selfie-liking behavior have not been widely studied. In this study, the researchers aimed to determine the causal relationship between selfie-liking and self-adjustment in learning with high school student achievement. Data were collected from 223 (male=29.6%, female=70.4%) samples aged 16-17 years from three public high schools in Aceh Tamiang. The instrument used in this study were selfie-liking scale and self-adjustment in learning scale. The achievement was measured by using report score.The results of the regression analysis showed that there was no significant collective effect between selfie-liking and self-adjustment in learning achievement (R² = 0.017; F(2.220) = 1.942; p = .146). Partial regression showed that individually, self-liking was not significant in predicting learning achievement (β = -, 045; p = .529), while self-adjustment in learning was a significant predictor of learning achievement (β  = ,142; p = . 005). Based on the above research, guidance and counseling teachers are expected to be able to provide preventive counseling services for the effect of excessive selfie like and provide guidance to subject teachers that although students in online learning still display selfie photos, it is not a negative impact on their mental and achievement.

Background: asthma and obesity have a close relationship: obesity is a risk factor for asthma, the link of its pathogenesis, a predictor of heavier flow and the worst control. One of the priorities of non-drug therapy of asthma is the fight against overweight. Preventive counseling allows doctors to teach patients the principles of a healthy lifestyle, including controlling body weight. There is no domestic population-based research reflects the coverage of overweighted persons with asthma of the counseling on weight loss in various socio-demographic groups. Thus our study is actual. Aims: Determine socio-demographic groups among overweighted patients with asthma that doesnt receive a counseling on weight loss. Materials and methods: This study based on cross-section population-based study "Know Your Heart" (2015-2018, Arkhangelsk, Novosibirsk, n=4504). For this research we selected overweighted patients with asthma (n=167). We applied the decision tree to identify socio-demographic groups that havent received a counseling on weight loss. Results: The probability of obtaining a counseling on weight loss increased by 1.39 times among obesity and pension status in women compared with the coverage level of counseling in the studied sample as a whole (61.7%). Among the men, the probability of obtaining a counseling on weight loss increased 1.27 times in the presence of obesity. Reducing the likelihood of getting counseling both among women (1.39 times compared with the general indicator) and among men (2.2 times compared with the general indicator) was noted if their weight corresponded to the category of excess body. Conclusion: 61.7% of the overweighted urban population of Russia with asthma received a counseling on weight loss. Groups of overweighted patients with asthma, which are statistically significantly less often obtaining counseling on weight loss: persons with BMI=25.0-29.9, regardless of gender, and non-retired women with BMI30.0. The decision tree developed by us will allow allergists-immunologists and other doctors to be wary of patients from the population groups identified in the study who are not covered by counseling. In turn, this will increase the coverage of patients from risk groups with counseling and, as a result, will contribute to improving asthma control.

Objective: to evaluate behavioral risk factors (BRF) in patients with arterial hypertension (AH) and to determine the ways of improvement of the approaches to preventive consulting targeted to increase medico-economic efficiency of the prevention of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).Material and methods. A total of 107 patients aged 40–60 years old that attended health-promoting schools for patients with AH at the institutions of primary medical help in Moscow in 2017–2019 were surveyed. The authors used diagnostic criteria of the risk factors for noncommunicable diseases that have behavioral character according to the classification of the World Health Organization (WHO). Along with that, the authors reviewed the opinion of 128 top managers of the institutions of primary medical help that attended the courses of their qualification improvement “Organization of public healthcare” in 2019. The course was dedicated to the possible ways of improvement of preventive consulting of patients with AH and BRF. The methods of content analysis, synthesis, statistical analysis, comparison, etc. were applied. The authors analyzed the documentation on the prevention of CVDs, scientific publications on the subject from eLibrary, Cochrane Library, PubMed, Scopus databases, and official sites of biomedical journals.Results. The sociological survey revealed data on the presence of BRF of non-communicable diseases in patients aged 40–60 years old with verified AH based on scientifically proven criteria and WHO classification. These criteria allowed to evaluate the degree of the proneness of patients with AH to the influence of harmful risk factors (smoking, alcohol consumption, lack of physical activity, unhealthy eating habits) and their combinations. The sociological survey data obtained from the top management of institutions of primary medical help indicated the necessity of the improvement of approaches to group preventive consulting of patients with AH and BRF.Conclusion. The results of the study revealed the main areas of the systemic mistakes in the preventive consulting of patients with AH that have BRF, associated with the evaluation of individual-psychological peculiarities of a personality, and in the organizational aspects of preventive counseling.

Preventive workplace programs are one of the optimal organizational models for the prevention of noncommunicable diseases in the workingage population. Corporate health programs allow to effectively influence the lifestyle of employees, which makes it possible to reduce human resource risks due to morbidity and increase labor efficiency. First, programs for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases are being implemented. A number of researchers report that implementing prevention programs in the workplace can reduce the number of people with bad habits. The effectiveness of preventive workplace programs largely depends on the mechanisms of their implementation. A feature of railway companies is the presence of a large staff of employees of various specialties. Many factors affecting health are, in one way or another, related to the workflow, since most railway companies operate continuously. Low health literacy of railway workers on health protection and disease prevention was noted. Measures such as financial incentives, preventive counseling, the creation of personalized health profiles and the availability of healthy food in the workplace have been shown to be effective. The review also discusses Russian corporate preventive workplace programs.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Poor medication adherence is a major contributor to suboptimal health outcomes and increased costs in cardiovascular (CV) diseases including atrial fibrillation (AF). Purpose To assess the impact of different preventive counseling programs on medication adherence in AF patients (pts) after catheter ablation (CA). Methods A prospective randomized controlled study with 3 parallel groups of pts with paroxysmal AF after CA (radiofrequency or cryoablation).  Pts were randomized (1:1:1) into 3 groups. Before discharge, pts from all groups received 1 preventive counseling session with focus on their individual risk factors profile. After discharge both intervention groups received 6 sessions of biweekly remote preventive counseling by phone (Group 1) or via email(Group 2) for 3 months after enrollment. Group 3 received usual care. Medication adherence was assessed using the 4-item Morisky-Green scale at baseline and at 12 months.  Results A total of 135 pts aged 35 to 80 years were enrolled (mean age, 57.3 ± 9.1 years, men, 51.8%). The groups were well balanced according to demographic and clinical features. Baseline levels of non-adherenсe and partial adherence were high in all groups (53.4%, 71.1% and 73.3% respectively). At 1 year of follow-up pts from both intervention groups demonstrated a significant improvement of medication adherence vs control (table).  Conclusions Preventive counseling programs with remote support via phone or e-mail improve medication adherence in AF pts after CA.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with substantially reduced quality of life (QoL). Both catheter ablation (CA) and education have a potential to improve QoL in AF patients (pts).  Purpose To assess the impact of preventive counseling with long-term support on QoL in pts after CA performed for paroxysmal AF. Methods A prospective randomized controlled study with 2 parallel groups of pts with paroxysmal AF after CA (radiofrequency or cryoablation).  Pts were randomized (1:1) into 2 groups. Before discharge, both groups received 1 preventive counseling session with focus on their individual risk factors profile. After discharge pts from intervention group received biweekly preventive counseling via email for 3 months (6 sessions). Control group received usual care. QoL was assessed at baseline and at 12 months using SF-36 questionnaire. Results A total of 90 pts aged 35 to 80 years were enrolled (mean age, 57.4 ± 9.9 years, men, 52.2%). Both groups had a poor QoL at baseline, and both groups experienced improvement in the physical health component at 1 year, but the degree of this improvement in the intervention group was similar to the control (table). Conclusions Preventive counseling with remote support via email does not further improve QoL in AF pts after CA.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Education may increase physical activity (PA) in patients (pts) with high cardiovascular (CV) risk. Objectives To assess the effects of preventive counseling with focus on diet modification with remote support by phone on PA levels in high CV risk pts. Methods This is a randomized controlled study of pts aged 40 to 65 years with high/very high CV risk (Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation scale [SCORE], ≥5%) and any 2 metabolic syndrome criteria.  Pts were randomized into 2 groups in 1:1 ratio. Intervention group received comprehensive preventive counseling with focus on healthy diet followed by 3 months of biweekly remote counseling by phone (a total of 6 sessions). Control group received usual care including basic preventive counseling. PA was assessed by International Questionnaire on Physical Activity (IPAQ) at baseline, at 6 and 12 months.  Results A total of 100 pts (women, 80%, aged 59.85 ± 4.47 years) were randomized. Demographics and clinical features were balanced across groups. Despite the study intervention not focusing on PA, total PA, moderate PA and walking significantly increased in the intervention group vs control at 6 and 12 months. Conclusion The study intervention provided a significant increase of PA in high CV risk pts.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Physical activity (PA) is associated with lower risk of all-cause death in atrial fibrillation (AF), so interventions to increase PA in AF patients (pts) has a potential to improve their outcomes. Purpose To assess the impact of different preventive counseling programs on PA in pts after catheter ablation (CA) of paroxysmal AF. Methods A prospective randomized controlled study with 3 parallel groups of pts with paroxysmal AF after CA (radiofrequency or cryoablation).  Pts were randomized (1:1:1) into 3 groups. Before discharge, pts from all groups received 1 preventive counseling session with focus on their individual risk factors profile. After discharge both intervention groups received 6 sessions of biweekly remote preventive counseling by phone (Group 1) or via email(Group 2) for 3 months after enrollment. Group 3 received usual care. PA was assessed using the International Questionnaire on Physical Activity (IPAQ) at baseline and after 12 months. Results A total of 135 pts aged 35 to 80 years were enrolled (mean age, 57.3 ± 9.1 years, men, 51.8%). The groups were well balanced according to demographic and clinical features and PA level. The baseline proportion of pts with sufficient (moderate or high) PA was high in all 3 groups (86.6%, 88.9% and 91.1%, respectively). At 1 year of follow-up both intervention groups had a significantly higher proportion of pts maintaining high PA levels vs control (table).  Conclusions Preventive counseling programs combining in-hospital and remote counseling via phone or e-mailsupport higher physical activity levels in AF pts after CA.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Illness perception (IP) affects health behaviors and coping strategies in chronic diseases, but our knowledge about IP in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients (pts) after catheter ablation (CA) is limited. Purpose To assess the impact of preventive counseling on IP in pts after AF catheter ablation. Methods A prospective randomized controlled study with 2 parallel groups of pts with paroxysmal AF after CA (radiofrequency or cryoablation).  Pts were randomized (1:1) into 2 groups. Before discharge, both groups received 1 preventive counseling session with focus on their individual risk factors profile. After discharge pts from intervention group received 6 sessions of biweekly remote preventive counseling via e-mail over the first 3 months. Control group received usual care. IP was assessed using The Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ) at baseline and at 3, 6 and 12 months. Results A total of 90 pts aged 35 to 80 years were enrolled (mean age, 57.4 ± 9.9 years, men, 52.2%). The groups were well balanced according to demographic and clinical features. At 6 and 12 months of follow-up there was a significant improvement of the overall IP score in the intervention group vs control (table).  Conclusions Preventive counseling with remote support via e-mail improves IP in AF pts after CA which may contribute to better long term outcomes.
