The research was carried out using an updated version of the MBI-Human Services Survey for Medical Personnel - MBI-HSS (MP) questionnaire. Our sample group consisted of 95 Romanian family doctors, of which 85 were female and 10 were male. 70.58% of female respondents reported having a high level of emotional Exhaustion, while 100% of male participants reported having the same raised levels of Exhaustion. 50% of men and 34.11% of women reported significant levels of Depersonalization, whereas 41.17% of female respondents indicated the lowest levels of Depersonalization. \u0000Regarding personal accomplishment, 40% of men and 27.05% of women indicated they had high levels of PA. Based on statistical analysis, there is no significant correlation between gender and burnout dimensions, indicating that primary care physicians are at risk for burnout regardless of gender. The study also looked at an inclination to switch to a different medical speciality because of burnout. Of the participants, 55.78% said they would opt for the same specialisation again, 29.47% said they were unsure, and 33.68% said they would not choose the same medical profession again if given the chance. According to the findings, there appears to be a positive correlation between Depersonalization and the intention to change careers. Specifically, higher Depersonalisation scores were associated with a higher probability of considering changing careers. Emotional Exhaustion and personal achievement, however, did not substantially correlate with changing professions.","PeriodicalId":504804,"journal":{"name":"BRAIN.

Depression is present in about one in five HF patients and is severe in almost half of them. The risk factors for depression in HF are female gender, elderly, the severity of HF symptoms, a history of isolated systolic hypertension or coronary heart disease (CHD), previous hospitalization and previous depressive episodes. Depression in HF patients increases medication non-adherence, is associated with poor outcomes after heart transplantation and is predictive of events and mortality in cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The current assumptions related to the physiopathological mechanisms include a common genetic polymorphisms, inflammation, generalized immune system disturbance, disturbances of platelet function, increased catecholamine levels, deamination of monoamines linked with monoamine oxidase activity, a dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system, increased serotonin levels, ischemia, life-style and medication non-compliance, a poor familial support and social isolation. Assessment of cognitive functioning should be part of routine clinical examination in HF, the diagnosis of depression is based on questionnaires (e.g. Patient Health Questionnaire-2 - PHQ-2) and on clinical interview. There is still no consensus on the best therapy for HF patients with depression (non-pharmacological and pharmacological therapies) but, for sure, depression in HF is harder to treat.","PeriodicalId":504804,"journal":{"name":"BRAIN.

The most common sexual dysfunction in men is erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction is the inability to achieve an erection or to sustain satisfactory sexual intercourse. Sexual dysfunction is associated with oncological treatment, having a significant impact on the quality of life. Sexuality is a frantic sense of awakening to life, it is excitement and a lot of energy, it gives the feeling of invincibility, it is the opposite of death. For many cancer patients, getting an erection is a negative problematic experience, combined with feelings of hopelessness, depression, accompanied by loss of self-esteem. Taking into account the medical aspect, the present paper highlights the interpersonal psychological aspect with reference to the cognitive-behavioural model. The present analysis describes the problem of sexual dysfunction and illustrates a panorama of therapeutic models to plan an effective intervention. This study aims to perform a review of the evidence on the role of cognitive-behavioural psychotherapy in addressing erectile dysfunction problems in prostate cancer patients.

The professional standard requires readiness for pedagogical activity, the basis of which is the formation of communicative competence of the future teacher, in particular in the context of the neuropedagogical approach. The authors highlight the approaches to the formation of students' communicative skills in the process of studying a block of pedagogical disciplines during the period of obtaining a pedagogical education. The paper asserts the need to follow a systematic approach in the formation of communicative competence as a dominant component of the professional competence of the future novice teacher. The effectiveness of his pedagogical activity, as the authors note, is determined by the content of the \"communicative portrait\" of students - future teachers, the effectiveness of the educational process depends on this. Such a position requires a new approach based on neuropedagogical components. It is the communicative knowledge, abilities and skills of the future teacher that will allow building the trajectory of object-subject and subject-subject interaction in a holistic educational process. A key component of communicative competence is the teacher's communicative culture, which ensures the effective construction of direct and feedback communication with the participants of the educational process. Professional activity always requires from the future teacher the ability to build strategy, tactics and techniques of subject-subject interactions, to organize joint activities with students to achieve educational goals.","PeriodicalId":504804,"journal":{"name":"BRAIN.
