The preparation of such a study consists, as Maciej Demel (1973, p. 7) wrote, ‘in critically attacking the present, overcoming outdated and harmful traditions, undermining authorities, (...) constant anxiety and searching, simultaneous penetration of the current state, its origins and prospects.’ The author has prepared the book in a slightly different formula. He presented his anxiety about the future of physical education in stories, which gives the work originality. Józef Węglarz can be counted among the few authors who subjectively, with a bit of sarcasm and humor, reveal the weaknesses of physical education. At the same time, using many years of experience, the author suggests how to solve a given problem…","PeriodicalId":260228,"journal":{"name":"Health Promotion & Physical Activity","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116289920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Technological advances in recent decades have increased the interaction of adolescents with screen-based technologies. The adolescents have the unhealthiest diets of all age groups, and most adolescents do not meet the national guidelines for physical activity. Objectives: To assess physical activity, dietary pattern and screen time among urban adolescents and to find out association of Screen Time with different variables.\u0000Methods: A cross sectional study carried out in Udaipur, Rajasthan with prior permission from ethical committee. The study included 250 adolescents (10 to 19 years) selected by multistage sampling method. The Leisure Time Exercise Questionnaire of Godin and Shephard was used to find out weekly Physical Activity score. Eating habits were investigated using self-administered questionnaire in which we asked different questions about the food consumed by adolescents in a week. A Screen Time of ≥2 hours/ day was categorized as high sedentary behaviour, whereas a Screen Time <2 hours/ day was categorized as low sedentary behavior.\u0000Results: In current study prevalence of High Screen Time and unhealthy diet was around 83% and 60% respectively. Around 25% had habit of taking breakfast regularly while less than 30% were taking meal without fail. Screen Time found to be associated significantly with physical activity p < 0.01, gender (p = 0.01) and diet p < 0.01.\u0000Conclusion: Screen Time was found to be associated significantly with physical activity, gender and type of diet, whereas it has no role to play with phases of adolescence.","PeriodicalId":260228,"journal":{"name":"Health Promotion &amp; Physical Activity","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126616083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

U każdego badanego indywidualnie zarejestrowano kamerami GOPRO trzy rodzaje nawrotów koziołkowych z różnymi prędkościami dopływania do ściany. Filmy opracowano z wykorzystaniem programu Kinovea.\u0000Wyniki: Wyróżniono fazy nawrotu parapływackiego oraz przeprowadzono analizę zmiennych kinematycznych: sumaryczny czas nawrotu, prędkość dopłynięcia do ściany i prędkość odbicia, odległość od ściany, głębokość zanurzenia oraz kąt odbicia. Obliczone wartości zmiennych wykazywały indywidualne zróżnicowanie i związane były z rodzajem niepełnosprawności zawodników.\u0000Wnioski: Faza obrotu właściwego, jako najdłużej trwająca część nawrotu koziołkowego, wraz z analizą zmiennych umożliwia wprowadzenie istotnych zmian w celu skrócenia czasu nawrotu parapływackiego. Zdefiniowane zmienne oraz ich wzajemne zależności znacząco wpływają na realizację nawrotu. Kąt odbicia i prędkość odbicia zawodnika od ściany w znacznym stopniu warunkują dalszy przebieg i efektywność nawrotu. Zindywidualizowana analiza zmiennych kinematycznych pozwala na obserwację występujących przeciążeń podczas nawrotu koziołkowego, a tym samym umożliwia niezwłoczną korektę i zminimalizowanie ryzyka wystąpienia negatywnych skutków intensywnego treningu pływackiego.","PeriodicalId":260228,"journal":{"name":"Health Promotion &amp; Physical Activity","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129086805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Frequency of reported injuries were compared in categories of single factors using Chi-square tests of homogeneity. The impact of risk factors – gender, age class, and sport/activity – on incidence ratios were analyzed via Poisson regression. All statistical analyses were run in R.Results: Findings heretofore unreported or inconsistent with previous emergency department (ED) studies include a peak injury occurrence of SRIs during September; a preponderance of head/neck injuries and fractures and a higher percent of admitted patients; frequent occurrence of ice hockey injuries; increased severity of injury during ages 10-14; and a trend during 2000-2014 showing increased injury rate of various types of recreational injuries. Findings consistent with previous ED studies included variable distribution of injuries by age, gender and sport/activity; increased frequency of SRIs during ages 12-15 years and during the warmer months of the year; and trends of increased frequency of SRIs affecting females, increased injury rate of closed head injuries, and decreased occurrence of bicycle injuries during the study period. Further to these findings, several suggestions are made to inform and guide local injury prevention efforts and further research. Conclusions: Our study results provide information on a region-specific occurrence and distribution of SRIs in a northern tier hospital catchment area that can be valuable to guide regional injury prevention efforts and further research to evaluate specific patterns identified and success of prevention efforts.","PeriodicalId":260228,"journal":{"name":"Health Promotion &amp; Physical Activity","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133116253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

History proves, that this environment has decreased combat strength, caused more casualties than the enemy in some operations and influenced war tactics significantly. Mountain warfare has an increasing frequency due to withdrawal areas for hostile forces, being home of ethnic minorities, being origin of many water supplies and being a natural frontier between countries. Mountains influence all warfighting functions, but especially movement and manoeuvre (mobility) and force protection (health support). To overcome the hardships of mountain warfare, special mountain units including support elements are mandatory, especially for health service support.","PeriodicalId":260228,"journal":{"name":"Health Promotion &amp; Physical Activity","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116839690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over time, the relapses associated with the disease can cause damage, and within ten years of onset, half of patients may experience progressive symptoms. Unfortunately, once a patient enters a progressive stage, there is no longer any improvement or remission, though some patients may experience a longer period of stability.Objectives: The goal of this study is to examine the relationship between social and sexual life in patients with multiple sclerosis, considering the progressive nature of the disease, the fluctuating psychological impact, and the impact on their reproductive abilities.Methods: The study utilized the Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life Questionnaire to assess the participants. This questionnaire measures quality of life by asking generic and specific questions related to multiple sclerosis, with a total of 18 items addressing specific needs such as fatigue, cognitive function, sexual function, daily activities, social interaction, and more.Results: The results indicated that most women with multiple sclerosis reported decreased lubrication, while men’s main concern was satisfying their partner. The majority of participants reported being neither satisfied nor dissatisfied with their sexual and social life. The frequency of sexual dysfunction was found to be higher in women with multiple sclerosis compared to the general population, with decreased libido being the most commonly reported issue. Individuals with primary progressive multiple sclerosis were found to have significantly increased problems with sexual function. Conclusion: This study found a correlation between social and sexual life for individuals with multiple sclerosis. As their social life worsened, their sexual life and reproductive capacity were also negatively impacted.","PeriodicalId":260228,"journal":{"name":"Health Promotion &amp; Physical Activity","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126817954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bardziej sprecyzowane znaczenie dotyczy wszelakich jej elementów. Można wyróżnić postawę wobec własnego ciała, jego budowy, higieny, sprawności fizycznej, różnych form wypoczynku i aktywności itp. Celem badań było określenie postaw wobec kultury fizycznej, lekcji wychowania fizycznego i ćwiczeń młodzieży kończącej szkoły ponadpodstawowe.Materiał i metody: Badaniami objęto tarnowskich uczniów, którzy uczęszczali do ostatnich klas liceów ogólnokształcących, techników i szkół branżowych pierwszego stopnia. Badaniami zostało objętych 751 uczniów, w tym 413 (55,0%) mężczyzn i 338 (45,0%) kobiet. W przeprowadzonych badaniach podstawową metodą był sondaż diagnostyczny. W celu uzyskania niezbędnych danych, które posłużyły do zweryfikowania postawionych hipotez zastosowano technikę ankietowania, z następującym narzędziem badawczym: Kwestionariusz do badania postaw młodzieży wobec kultury fizycznej autorstwa S. Strzyżewskiego.Wyniki: Jak wykazały przeprowadzone badania, każdy ze wskaźników postaw uczniów wobec kultury fizycznej był na średnim poziomie, a ich wartości wahały się od 2,06 do 2,55 pkt. Średnia wartość wskaźnika globalnego postawy wyniosła 2,28 pkt. Najwyższy wynik dotyczył komponentu poznawczego (2,55), a najniższą średnią wartość odnotowano w przypadku komponentu behawioralnego (2,06). W komponencie behawioralnym wystąpiło największe zróżnicowanie danych. Mężczyźni cechowali się wyższymi przeciętnymi wartościami badanych wskaźników postaw niż kobiety.Wnioski: Z otrzymanych danych wynika, że postawy wobec kultury fizycznej badanej młodzieży kształtują się na zadowalającym, choć średnim poziomie. Badani mężczyźni wykazywali wyższe wartości w poszczególnych komponentach postawy jak i wskaźniku globalnym. Uczniowie z techników dominowali nad pozostałymi typami szkół.","PeriodicalId":260228,"journal":{"name":"Health Promotion &amp; Physical Activity","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114627342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to evaluate the postural habits and trunk alignment of high school adolescents against university students with high physical activity and high awareness of the importance of postural quality for health.Material and methods: 59 high school students and 82 university students, male and female, participated in the study. Three-dimensional trunk positioning in habitual standing was investigated using the Zebris Pointer ultrasound device. Awareness of habitual posture during various activities of daily living was assessed using a validated questionnaire. Results were analysed using Statistica v13.Results: High school students were characterised by a greater depth of thoracic kyphosis than university students. Female high school students tended to have shallower lumbar lordosis and male high school students tended to have deeper lordosis. High school students showed worse lateral trunk inclination and greater pelvic to shoulder rotation. The most important observation regarding postural awareness was related to sitting position. Women from both groups were more likely than men to admit to sitting with a bent and rotated trunk and crossed legs.Conclusions: It appears that higher physical activity and / or greater knowledge of university students contributes to more correct trunk positioning compared to the physically inactive high school students. Postural habits, however, are similar in both groups. Gender significantly differentiates both posture and posture-related habits.","PeriodicalId":260228,"journal":{"name":"Health Promotion &amp; Physical Activity","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130942395","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
