Introduction. Skin is the largest organ of the human body. It plays an important role in protection against harmful substances found in the surrounding environment and takes part in the elimination of heavy metals from the body by sweating. The aim of the study was to evaluate the changes in the concentration of lead and copper in the sweat collected on the first and the fourteenth day of endurance training. Materials and methods. The research included 43 patients undergoing a supervised, two-week endurance training on a cycle ergometer and cross-trainer. The lead and copper contents were presented in relation to the sodium content as an indicator of the amount of excreted sweat. Results. The lead concentration in relation to the sodium content in the samples of sweat taken with the use of swabs is statistically significantly higher on day 1 (Me = 1.64-E-4) than the 14th day (Me = 0.37-E-4) p = 0.027. In the sweat samples collected with a plaster, the lead concentration on day 14 of rehabilitation (Me = 0.08-E-4) is statistically significantly lower than before the beginning of the training cycle (Me = 1.19-E-4) p = 0.044. The concentration of copper in sweat samples collected with swabs and patches on day 1 of the rehabilitation cycle does not significantly differ from the content of samples collected on day 14. Conclusions. Endurance training with submaximal heart rate results in reduced excretion of lead in the sweat and does not significantly affect the level of copper. Further research into the impact of physical effort on the excretion of metals from the body can help explain the results13

Introduction. Osteoarthritis is the most common disease of the musculoskeletal system. Osteoarthritis progresses slowly, but with time it results in movement disability and chronic pain. Its progression is also significantly associated with personality functioning and the ability to make rational life choices regarding various aspects of human life, including the economic sphere. Aim. The aim of the research was to determine how personality correlates with a tendency towards indebtedness between patients with and without osteoarthritis. Material and methods. The researched sample consisted of two groups - 50 patients diagnosed with osteoarthritis hospitalized in the Department of General and Neuro Rehabilitation in the Institute of Rural Health in Lublin and 50 healthy people. The KOS-B Questionnaire, the IVE Questionnaire, the SES Scale, the SPP-25 Scale, the Delta Questionnaire and the APSZ questionnaire were used in the research. Results. In the group of patients with osteoarthritis, the leading correlates of indebtedness are: assessment of the stress situation related to the current economic situation seen as a threat, and perceiving it as harm or loss. In the healthy group, the leading correlates of incurring financial liabilities are impulsiveness, self-esteem, assessment of the stress situation related to the current economic situation seen as a threat, openness to new experiences and sense of humor, empathy, and the need for social approval. Conclusion. In the group of patients with osteoarthritis, the factor conducive to incurring financial liabilities is the assessment of the stressful situation related to the current economic situation seen as a threat, while perceiving it as harm or loss leads to abandoning reliance on credit. In the healthy group, the factors that favor this type of activity are impulsiveness, self-esteem, the assessment of the stress situation related to the current economic situation seen as a threat and the need for social approval; the factors protecting against indebtedness in healthy persons are openness to new experiences and sense of humor as well as empathy.
