The system of preventing and resolving alcohol-related problems used in Poland gives municipalities (gminas), as territorial units, the fundamental role in it. The municipality council is obliged to establish a number of programmes on the basis of the act on municipality self-government, as well as the regulations of other acts, including the Act of 26th October 1982 on Upbringing in Sobriety and Counteracting Alcoholism (A.U.S.C.A.) of the Municipality Programme for Preventing and Resolving Alcohol-related Problems (LCPP&RAP). The programme takes into account the areas of action listed in Article 41 section 1 of the A.U.S.C.A. and the indications included in the recommendations developed by the National Agency for Resolving Alcohol-related Problems. It should be emphasized that the implementation of tasks in the field of preventing and resolving alcohol-related problems under the programme is part of the strategy for resolving social problems, and takes into account the operational objectives set out in the National Health Programme. The regulations of the A.U.S.C.A. also provide the municipality witha significant role in implementing actions to tackle alcohol addiction. The actions are taken on three levels by: (1) appointing a local community committee for resolving problems (Article 41 section 3), (2) determining within resolutions the maximum number of permits for the sale of alcoholic beverages and the rules of locating places of sale and serving alcoholic beverages (Article 12 sections 1–3), (3) issuing permits for the sale of alcohol (Article 18 section 1) and monitoring the legitimacy of using these permits (Article 18 section 8). In addition, the LCPP&RAP provides solutions regarding forms, methods and projects undertaken by the municipality. It is important to note that the municipality self-government, as a result of decentralization of the state, has received extensive competence to conduct its own policy on alcohol-related problems, which is why its role is crucial.

The present paper is concerned with measuring public health on the national level both as a determinant of life quality and as an area of sustainable development in its social dimension. The Sustainable Development Indicators Application is a publicly available tool for monitoring the condition of society. It was developed in the Statistical Office in Katowice in cooperation with the Statistical Office in Wroclaw, and launched on the official website of the Central Statistical Office of Poland in February 2016. The SDI Application is a proposal of official statistics for disseminating and presenting information on the sustainable development of the country. It includes a set of indicators grouped into areas within four domains: social, economic, environmental and institutional-political on the national, regional and local levels. SD indicators on the national list monitor goals referring to sustainable development, set out in national strategic documents, including quality of life, which underlies social, economic and institutional-political development of the country. Currently, the Polish SDI set is being further developed according to the guidelines outlined in the 2030 Agenda adopted at the UN Summit in 2015.

Due to WHO – health is a physical, psychical and social welfare. The collapse of health is serious threats of safety. Only healthy man may be liable to education, will participate in organizational processes, actively and creatively incorporate processes aimed at improving safety culture and defense, which serves harmonious development of certain entities and achieving safety in its broad sense. Meanwhile fatigue, caused by unhealthy lifestyle or physico-somatic changes, reduces feeling of welfare which is equivalent of safety. Taking adequate measures to minimize subjective feeling of lack of welfare might contribute to increasing our effectiveness and creativity and, at the same time, to improve conditions to our safety.

The aim of this pilot study was to determine (a) the effects of high intensity strength training in the workplace on blood pressure, fat percentage and physical fitness in overweight adults, and (b) the influence of this intervention on the blood pressure in a subsample of hypertensive subjects. Overweight adults (n=15) aged 42.8 years underwent anthropometric assessment (weight, fat percentage, waist circumference, and triceps skinfold), physical fitness assessment (leg extensor power, upper body endurance, hand grip strength and Vo2max) and blood pressure assessment before and after 8 weeks of high intensity resistance training in the workplace. Each training session consisted of 16 sets of 45 repetitions performed at 1 repetition per second, decreasing load at the point of muscular failure starting at 60% of repetition maximum (RM). The effects of the intervention were analyzed by paired sample t-tests. For exploratory purposes, a non-parametric test was also performed (Wilcoxon matched-pair signed-rank) to examine if this decision could affect the results. Weight, body fat percentage, and triceps skinfold decreased significantly with the high intensity resistance training protocol in the workplace (all P<0.05). Performance in physical fitness tests increased significantly with training (all P<0.05), except for handgrip strength. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased significantly with R-HIRT in the workplace (all P <0.05) in hypertensive subjects (n=10). This protocol performed in the workplace in this pilot study produces health and fitness benefits in overweight and hypertensive people.

Tea is the most common beverage in the world. It is consumed mostly as green tea, oolong, or black tea. Depending on the manufacturing process, different varieties of tea can be produced. As tea is one of the most popular beverages, it could be a tremendously important source of polyphenolic constituents. Tea leaves are a source of polyphenols, especially catechins, which are known for their antioxidative activity. Various studies suggest that polyphenolic compounds present in black tea are associated with beneficial effects in prevention of cardiovascular diseases. In addition, anti-aging, antidiabetic and many other health beneficial effects associated with tea consumption have been reported. The review highlights the potential of black tea, its health benefits in terms of antioxidative, antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic properties as well as protective agents against cardiovascular diseases.

W artykule omówiono problemy dotyczące poprawy motywacji aktywności dzieci uczęszczających do szkół podstawowych. Dzięki odpowiedniej ilości aktywności fizycznej, dzieci ze wszystkich grup wiekowych mogą osiągnąć optymalny poziom zdrowia i rozwoju fizycznego, nabędą też odpowiednie umiejętności ruchowe. Ważnym problemem naszych czasów jest poprawa stanu zdrowia dzieci. Wyniki przedstawionych w artykule badań świadczą o stosunkowo niskim poziomie zdrowia dzieci w wieku szkolnym, co wiąże się z obniżonym poziomem ich aktywności fizycznej. Badania dowodzą, że u dzieci w wieku 6 i 7 lat liczba godzin, w trakcie których dzieci podejmują aktywność fizyczną na średnim i wysokim poziomie, wykazuje tendencję spadkową. Grupa wiekowa sześciolatków spędza średnio 2 godziny 10 minut (9,1%) na poziomie średnim, 40 minut (2,6%) na poziomie wysokim, a w przypadku siedmiolatków – 1 godzinę 7 minut (7,35%) na poziomie średnim i 20 min. (1,05%) na poziomie wysokim. Największą ilość czasu spędza się na poziomie podstawowym (44,5% w wieku lat 6,i 39,4% w wieku lat 7). W przypadku sześciolatków 88,3% czasu przypada na poziomy podstawowy i niski, natomiast w przypadku siedmiolatków – 91,6%; 11,7% i 8,4% czasu przypisuje się odpowiednio poziomom średnim i wysokim, co wskazuje na siedzący styl życia. Rozwiązanie problemu zachowania zdrowia i zapewnienia harmonijnego rozwoju osobowości w placówkach szkolnych ma ogromne znaczenie. W tym względzie kultura fizyczna, jako podstawa zapewnienia i wzmocnienia zdrowia dzieci, stoi w obliczu wyzwań, które wymagają rozwoju i utworzenia takiego systemu wychowania fizycznego w szkolnictwie podstawowym, który za-pewni poprawę wszystkich elementów składowych zdrowia – umysłowego, społecznego i fizycznego. Jednym z warunków skuteczności w systemie organizacji ćwiczeń sportowych i rekreacyjnych jest wprowadzenie urozmaiconych form pracy, uwzględniających zainteresowania i motywacje dzieci.

The article is about problems in increasing motive activity for children of primary school age, the aim of which is improving their health. Thanks to a sufficient amount of physical activity children of all age groups have an optimum level of health, physical development and will acquire motor skills. One of the important problems of our time is to improve the health of children. The study indicates a relatively low level of health in children of primary school age, which is associated with decreased levels of physical activity. Studies show that for children of 6 to 7 years of age the number of hours on average and high levels of motor activity tend to decrease. At the age of six 2 hours. 10 min (9,1%) are spent at the average level, 40 minutes (2.6 per cent) – at the high level, and at the age of seven – 1 hour. 7 min(7,35%) are spent at the average level, 20 min (1,05%) – at the high level. The greatest number of hours is spent at the basic level (44,5% at the age of 6, 39.4% – at the age of 7). At the age of six 88.3% of the time are given to the base and low level, at the age of seven – 91.6 %, 11.7 % and 8.4 % are given to the average and high levels accordingly, which indicates a sedentary lifestyle. The solution to the problem of preservation of health and ensuring harmonious development of personality in educational institutions is of great practical importance. In this regard physical culture, as the basis of ensuring the strengthening of children's health, has new challenges that require the development and creation of physical education system in secondary schools which provides improvement of all components in health - mental, social, physical. One of the conditions of effectiveness in the system of organization of sports and recreation activities is the introduction of various forms of work, taking into account the interests and motives of the children.

Background: Gender roles have been defined as the roles and responsibilities attributed by the society to women (feminine) and men (masculine) and how the society views, perceives, thinks of them and the expectations of the society about how they should behave. Awareness should be increased in nurses so that they can take a look at their own lives critically. This study was conducted to find out the views of nurses about gender role attitudes. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted with 200 nurses who agreed to participate in the study in a training and research hospital between June 15 and August 15, 2017. The data were collected through face to face interview with a questionnaire form. Questionnaire form consists of descriptive characteristics form and Gender Role Attitudes Scale (GRAS). Descriptive and analytical statistics were used in the assessment of data. Results: Average age of the nurses who participated in the study was found as 30.37±7.28. It was found that 83.5% of the nurses had not received any education for gender roles. It was found that almost half of the nurses thought the best aspect of being a man was “being free”, while the best aspect of being a woman was “being a mother”; it was also found that men should not “show violence” and women should not “be unfaithful”; both genders should be taught to “be respectful” and “not be allowed to be disrespectful”. Nurses’ average GRAS score of 121.18±11.37 showed that they had equalitarian attitude about gender roles. Conclusion: The results that nurses can look at their own lives with a critical eye and have an equalitarian attitude in gender roles are significant in terms of more quality and equality-based health services.

Public support for government institutions tends to increase in the face of threats such as armed conflict, terrorism, or natural disasters. This phenomenon, known as the 'rally-'round-the-flag' effect, has also been observed as a response to the Covid-19 pandemic in many countries. Citizens' trust in the government's good intentions and ability to handle a crisis is very important, as it gives government the legitimacy to take strong measures. High trust in government also increases citizens' willingness to comply with these measures. The aim of this study is to examine the 'rally-'round-the-flag' effect in the Czech Republic, analyse the characteristics related to the increase in trust in government, and test the relationship between trust in government and compliance with anti-pandemic measures. The analysis uses data from five waves of the Czech Household Panel Study (2016–2020) and finds a dramatic increase in trust in government in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. A relatively higher increase in trust in government was observed among people with a low level of education and low social trust. Overall, however, the rise in trust in government is more of a general tendency across society than it is an increase in one specific group of the population. Trust in government is also linked to compliance with anti-pandemic measures.
