Introduction. Pelvic exenteration (PE) is a curative or palliative radical surgical procedure applied for advanced or recurrent pelvic or perineal cancers. From 1948 to date, improvements in surgical techniques, including urinary conduits and pelvic reconstruction, have improved its morbidity and mortality. Aim. The present study reviews the evolution of PE, indications, complications and current results. Material and methods. Large case series and studies on PE were searched in PubMed, covering all years available, and recent applications of PE were reviewed. Results. Indications of PE are primary or locally advanced tumors (cervix. rectum. vulva. bladder), recurrence after radiotherapy (cervix), recurrence after primary resection (vulva, vagina, cervix, rectum) and palliative treatment for advanced tumors or pubic fistulas. Contraindication are distant metastases, involvement of iliac vessels, pelvic side-wall or para-aortic lymph nodes and invasion of sacrum proximal to S1/S2 or sciatic foramen. However, recent studies have reported more radical resections, including side-wall and vessels. Patient’s health condition and fitness are also important in decision-making. Conclusion. PE can be the last chance of cure or improving quality of life for advanced or locally recurrent pelvic cancers. 5-year survival rates with PE are better, but complications of such a radical surgery are still high, and should be improved.

The movement of the baby boomers into the middle ages made the 45-65 age cohort the largest and the fastest growing segment of population in the first decade of the 21st century. This demographic expansion will have multiple consequences for ageing society. This paper aimed to provide an overview on biology of midlife transition. Physical characteristics, midlife-specific morbidity and mortality were described with focus to sexual dimorphism in physique and gender gap in mortality and morbidity. These characteristics made midlife a separate and unique stage of life. In-depth knowledge of this life stage may be useful in identifying and solving problems of ageing individuals and population.

The connection between the rate of height loss in older people and their general health status has been well documented in the medical literature. Our study was aimed at furthering the characterization of this interrelationship in the context of health indices and mortality in a hospitalized population of Polish adults. Data were collated from a literature review and from a longitudinal study of aging carried out in the Polish population which followed 142 physically healthy inmates, including 68 men and 74 women, for at least 25 years from the age of 45 onwards. Moreover, cross-sectional data were available from 225 inmates, including 113 men and 112 women. These subjects were confined at the same hospital. ANOVA, t-test, and regression analysis were employed. The results indicate that the onset of height loss emerges in the fourth and five decade of life and there is a gradual acceleration of reduction of height at later stages of ontogeny in both sexes. Postmenopausal women experience a more rapid loss of height compared with men. The individuals who had higher rate of loss of height (≥3 cm/decade) tend to be at greater risk of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. In conclusion, our findings suggest that a systematic assessment of the rate of loss of height can be useful for clinicians caring for elderly people because of its prognostic value in terms of morbidity and mortality.

The article deals with the possibility of predicting the dynamics of teachers’ individual health by the indicators of professional comfort zone changes. The area of professional comfort zone, the level of occupational burnout, the individual health status of teachers in secondary schools was investigated. 19.67 % of the respondents have low level of professional burnout, 34.43 % – average level, 27.05 % – high level, 18,85 % – very high level. Skin diseases, diseases of musculoskeletal system and sensory organs (22.84 %); diseases of cardiovascular and hematopoietic systems (20,45 %); diseases of respiratory system (19.50 %) are the most common nosologies that teachers have. The results showed that the narrowing of the teachers’ professional comfort zone increases the probability of increasing the level of occupational burnout. Morbidity of the respondents with low and high levels of burnout increases with the narrowing of professional comfort zone. Teachers with extremely high levels of burnout while expanding comfort zone are sick more. Data obtained for teachers with an average level of occupational burnout are not statistically significant. Teachers, whose professional comfort zone had expanded during the period of professional training, have low levels of occupational burnout regardless of age and experience. Teachers, whose professional comfort zone had been narrowed during the period of professional training, are prone to burnout proportionally with negative dynamics of professional comfort zone. Professional comfort zone of teachers with middle, high and very high levels of occupational burnout at the time of the survey was significantly lower than in the pre-professional stage. Instead, teachers with low level of burnout have the area of comfort zone located within a little more than on pre-professional stage. It is recommended to take into account the detected peculiarities in using indicators of professional comfort zone for predicting the state of teachers’ individual health and the evaluation in their individual health preservation competence. As the prospects for further research in this direction we consider the development and implementation of valeological and educational technologies of formation and development of individual health preservation competence of the future teachers and teachers-practitioners in order to expand their comfort zones, to prevent the premature professional burnout, prevention of diseases, especially those that have a psychosomatic nature.

The publication From the History of Social Welfare in Interwar Poland. Summer Semicolonies in Łódź combines two perspectives: history and pedagogy. Joanna Sosnowska presents in it the main assumptions of social welfare, including childcare, adopted by the Łódź authorities in the interwar period. She based her research on the source material found, among other places, in the State Archives in Łódź and the Archives of the Department of Ethnology of the Institute of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology of the University of Lodz. On the example of summer semicolonies organized in this city, she discusses the methods of organizing holidays in the city’s parks, sources of their funding, as well as participants and staff. The scholar also addresses some general issues related to the care, upbringing and education of children and teenagers. The book may therefore be of interest to historians of education, educators, sociologists, as well as planners and organizers in the area of childcare.

Introduction: In Pokarpackie voivodeship a continuous increase in morbidity and mortality from breast cancer in women is observed. In the years 1999-2010 a 56% increase in morbidity and 4,8% increase in mortality was reported. The aim of the study was to assess the trends in morbidity and mortality from breast cancer in women in Podkarpackie voivodeship in the years 1999-2010. Materials and methods: 6 851 breast cancer cases and 2 627 deaths from breast cancer in women were analysed. Crude morbidity and mortality rates, standardized morbidity and mortality rates, structure rates and the participation of breast cancer cases detected in the screening programme were formulated. Results: In 2010 an increase in breast cancer cases by 235 of newly diagnosed cases was observed in Podkarpackie voivodeship, in comparison with 1999. Crude and standardized rates of morbidity showed a rising tendency from 38,5/100 000 (standardized rate 28,6/100 000) in 1999 to 60,2/100 000 (standardized rate 39,4/100 000) in 2010. Mortality rates remained stable from 19,2/100 000 in 1999 to 20,2/100 000 in 2010. Standardized mortality rates showed a subtle decrease from 13,3/100 000 in 1999 to 11,5/100 000 in 2010. High differentiation in morbidity and mortality from breast cancer was observed in 2010 in the districts of Podkarpackie voivodeship. Morbidity rates ranged between 25,4-132,9/100 000, whereas mortality rates ranged between 0,0-44,4/100 000. The percentage share of breast cancer cases detected in the screening program in 2006-2010 increased by 19,5%. Conclusions: In the years 1999-2010 the morbidity and mortality rates were lower in Podkarpackie voivodeship in comparison with the same rates for Poland in the same time. In the districts of Podkarpackie voivodeship in 2010 the highest value of the morbidity rate in Lesko District was 5-fold higher than the value found in Tarnobrzeg District, whereas the mortality rate in Strzyżów District was 44-fold higher in comparison with Bieszczady District. The percentage share of breast cancer cases detected in the screening programme increased in the years 2006-2010 from 3,7% to 23,2%.

Wstęp: W województwie podkarpackim obserwuje się stały wzrost zachorowań i zgonów na raka piersi u kobiet. W latach 1999-2010 zanotowano 56% przyrost zachorowań oraz wzrost zgonów o 4,8%. Celem pracy była ocena trendów zachorowalności i umieralności na raka piersi u kobiet w województwie podkarpackim w latach 1999-2010. Materiał i metody: Analizie poddano 6 851 zachorowań i 2 627 zgonów z powodu nowotworu złośliwego piersi. Zostały opracowane współczynniki surowe zachorowalności i umieralności, współczynniki standaryzowane zachorowalności i umieralności, wskaźniki struktury oraz udział wykrytych raków piersi w programie skryningowym. Wyniki: W 2010 roku w województwie podkarpackim zanotowano, w porównaniu do 1999 roku, wzrost rozpoznań na raka piersi u kobiet o 235 nowych przypadków. Współczynniki surowe i standaryzowane zachorowalności wykazały trend rosnący, od 38,5/100 000 (standaryzowany 28,6/100 000) w 1999 roku do 60,2/100 000 (standaryzowany 39,4/100 000) w 2010 roku. Umieralność utrzymuje się na stałym poziomie od 19,2/100 000 w 1999 roku do 20,2/100 000 w 2010 roku. Współczynniki standaryzowane umieralności zanotowały natomiast niewielki spadek z 13,3/100 000 w 1999 roku do 11,5/100 000 w 2010 roku. Zaobserwowano również duże zróżnicowanie zachorowalności i umieralności w powiatach województwa podkarpackiego w 2010 roku. Współczynniki zachorowalności wahały się w przedziale 25,4-132,9/100 000, natomiast współczynniki umieralności 0,0-44,4/100 000. Udział procentowy raków piersi wykrytych w programie przesiewowym w latach 2006–2010 wzrósł o 19,5%. Wnioski: W latach 1999–2010 w województwie podkarpackim współczynniki zachorowalności i umieralności przyjmowały wartości niższe niż współczynniki w tym samym czasie dla Polski. W powiatach województwa podkarpackiego w 2010 roku największa wartość współczynnika zachorowalności w powiecie leskim była 5-krotnie wyższa od wartości współczynnika w powiecie tarnobrzeskim, natomiast współczynnik umieralności w powiecie strzyżowskim był 44-krotnie wyższy niż w powiecie bieszczadzkim. Udział raków piersi wykrytych w skryningu wzrósł w latach 2006–2010 z 3,7% do 23,2%.
