Objectives To investigate a hypothesized positive association between employment in occupations where heavy lifting is likely to occur, and the risk of ischaemic heart disease (IHD). Material and Methods Male blue-collar workers from Denmark (N = 516 180) were monitored with respect to hospital treatment or death due to IHD, through national registers over the years 2001–2010. Poisson regression was used to estimate relative rates of IHD between “workers in occupations which, according to an expert opinion, are likely to involve heavy lifting” and “other blue-collar workers.” Prevalent cases were excluded from the analysis. Results The rate ratio was estimated at 0.97 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.94–1.00) for deaths or hospitalizations due to IHD and 1.07 (95% CI: 0.94–1.21) for deaths due to IHD. Conclusions The results do not support the hypothesis that occupational heavy lifting is an important risk factor for IHD.

The paper attempts at assessing the results of functioning of hospital with use of multicriteria decision support methods. Research was conducted on a group of selected hospital patients in Małopolska hospitals. The hospitals were assessed according to five main criteria: service availability, communication between employees and patients, nursing and medical care, stay at hospital and others. Each criteria had several subcriteria. Those, in turn, had subsubcriteria related to them. Weights (priorities) were calculated for each of them showing their relative influence for hospital quality assessment. The research results differ significantly from assessments made so far which were based on questions, usually in 5 degree Likert scale, directed to patients
