Ça roule! pragmateme deconstruction French-Italian comparative analysis

The aim of this paper is to present, after a short introduction to what pragmateme, or pragmatic phraseologism, is and how we understand it as a fixed expressive phrase with affective and emotive load, the results of the Polonium project entitled “Pragmatemes in contrast: from linguistic modeling to lexicographic coding”. In particular, we want to divulgate information concerning analysis of the French pragmateme Ça roule ! and its Italian corresponding phrase A posto!. Furthermore, equivalents of both pragmatemes are also investigated. However, as we consider cognitive linguistics tools as those which may give greater response to what the meaning of pragmatemes is, we broaden the project results with analysis of the trajector-landmark relation and of conceptual metaphors, that are the basis of the imagery for the aforementioned linguistic elements. In this way, we may also try to discern similarities and discrepancies in how close but still different cultures depict the same scene in similar speech events

Trwające małżeństwo jako przeszkoda do życia zakonnego (kan. 643 § 1, nr 2 KPK)

Przedmiotem artykułu jest problematyka trwającego małżeństwa jako przeszkody do życia zakonnego, o którym traktuje kan. 643 § 1, nr 2 Kodeksu Prawa Kanonicznego. Za cel opracowania przyjęto wykazanie, że aktualne małżeństwo uniemożliwia wstąpienie do zakonu, jest nie tylko przeszkodą w przyjęciu do nowicjatu, lecz także w ogóle uniemożliwia życie zakonne. Tak określone zamierzenie badawcze zrealizowano poprzez opis i gruntowną analizę obowiązujących przepisów i tekstów Magisterium Kościoła. Analiza wymienionych źródeł pozwoliła na sformułowanie kilku głównych wniosków. Po pierwsze, udowodniono, że małżeństwo i życie zakonne wzajemnie się wykluczają. Po drugie, stwierdzono, że trwające małżeństwo jest przeszkodą do życia zakonnego, która posiada skutki prawne. Po trzecie, wyjaśniono problematykę ustania impedimentum ligaminis oraz ukazano możliwe sposoby jej wygaśnięci

ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSORS AS SIMPLE AND CHEAP DEVICES FOR RAPID DETERMINATION OF VARIOUS SPECIES IN ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLES

The electrochemical methods are very good tool for determination of trace concentrations of various species in water samples. The analysis carried out using these methods are usually simple, fast and also the cost of the required equipment is much lower comparing to other instrumental methods. Furthermore, the electroanalytical methods are easy to automate and computerize. Among five major groups of these methods (potentiometry, voltammetry, coulometry, conductometry and dielectrometry), potentiometry and voltammetry attract the greatest attention of researchers. In this paper, experimental results of research related to development of procedures (voltammetric and potentiometric) for the determination of elements in environmental water samples were presented. Due to their common occurrence in environment and possible toxic effects on living organisms, vanadium and nitrate ions were selected for investigation. Optimization of voltammetric procedure for V(V) determination were carried out in matrix containing different surfactants and humic acids, using lead film electrode as a working electrode. Results showed that only nonionic surfactant Brij-35 did not interfere with the voltammetric signal. Other surfactants as well as humic acids reduced the signal, and possibility of their elimination with suitable resins were also investigated. Potentiometric measurements were consisted of preparation and determination of analytical properties of nitrate ion-selective electrodes with solid contact. The results showed that among three different membrane composition, the best response was achieved by membrane containing: Ni(Phen)2, THTDPCl, PVC and NPOE in the ratio of 1:2:33:64 wt. %, respectively. With the detection limit of 2.8 × 10^-6 mol L^-1, the working concentration range from 5 × 10^-5 to 1 × 10^-1 mol L-1 and a slope of -55.1 mV per decade, this electrode showed good selectivity to sulfate, acetate, carbonate, dihydrogen phosphate, fluoride and chloride ions, and also good potential reversibility

Nocebo hyperalgesia can be induced by classical conditioning without involvement of expectancy

Influential theoretical accounts take the position that classical conditioning can induce placebo effects through conscious expectancies. In the current study two different conditioning procedures (hidden and open) were used to separate expectancy from conditioning in order to reveal the role of expectancy in the formation of nocebo hyperalgesia. Eighty-seven healthy females were randomly assigned to three groups (hidden conditioning, open conditioning, and control). Participants were selected according to the Fear of Pain Questionnaire scores and assigned to two subgroups: high and low level of fear of pain (trait). They received electrocutaneous pain stimuli preceded by either an orange or blue color. During the conditioning phase, one color was paired with pain stimuli of moderate intensity (control stimuli) and the other color was paired with pain stimuli of high intensity (nocebo stimuli) in both hidden and open conditioning groups. Only participants in the open conditioning group were informed about this association, however just before the testing phase the expectancy of hyperalgesia induced in this way was withdrawn. In the control group, both colors were followed by control pain stimuli. During the testing phase all participants received a series of stimuli of the same intensity, regardless of the preceding color. Participants rated pain intensity, expectancy of pain intensity and fear (state). We found that nocebo hyperalgesia was induced by hidden rather than open conditioning. The hidden conditioning procedure did not produce conscious expectancies related to pain. Nocebo hyperalgesia was induced in participants with low and high fear of pain and there was no difference in the magnitude of the nocebo effect between both groups. Nocebo hyperalgesia was not predicted by the fear of upcoming painful stimuli

Assessment of the level of knowledge about health behaviors and puerperium of various social groups in the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship during the Covid-19 pandemic

Introduction The puerperium is a period in a woman's life after childbirth, during which systemic changes occur. The woman's body returns to its pre-pregnancy condition. It lasts about 6 weeks. Having a baby and placenta causes changes in the concentration of pregnancy hormones, fluctuations that can negatively affect the behavior of women. In addition, the Covid-19 pandemic may interfere with the clinical condition of the pregnant woman, causing her mental health to deteriorate. Aim of the study: The aim of the study was the assessment of the level of knowledge about health behaviors and puerperium of various social groups in the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship during the Covid-19 pandemic. Material and methods             The survey covered 603 respondents from the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship from February to April 2021. 18 subjects were excluded from the study due to incomplete completion of the questionnaire. Ultimately, the analysis was conducted on the data of 584 respondents. The analyzes included women and men aged 19-45, who were divided into four groups. The first group included 130 obstetricians, the second 86 midwives, the third 50 teachers, and the fourth 318 students of the JKU. The Bioethics Committee of the JKU approved the study. Statistical analysis was performer. Results The respondents' knowledge about puerperium was 78.6%. Midwives had the most information, while obstetricians had the least. Participants in all 4 groups have a satisfactory level of knowledge about the duration of the puerperium, the principles of prophylaxis and hygiene in puerperium and feeding the newborn. The respondents obtain their knowledge from books and magazines.  Wstęp Połóg to okres w życiu kobiety, kiedy po porodzie dochodzi do zmian ogólnoustrojowych, które wystąpiły w ciąży tj: inwolucja macicy, gojenie rany krocza, rozpoczęcie laktacji, podjęcie czynności hormonalnych przez jajniki. Trwa on 6 tygodni i dzielimy go na połóg bezpośredni do 24 godzin po porodzie, wczesny 1 tydzień  i późny do 6 tygodni. Urodzenie dziecka i łożyska powoduje obniżenie stężenia hormonów ciążowych tj: laktogen łożyskowy, gonadotropina kosmówkowa.  Stężenie prolaktyny i estrogenów zaczyna wracać do wartości sprzed ciąży. Pierwsza owulacja czyli powrót płodności może wystąpić po 6-8 tyg po porodzie, a u kobiet karmiących piersią nawet po roku ze względu na wysokie stężenie PRL związane z karmieniem piersią. Pandemia mogła negatywnie wpłynąć na przebieg ciąży i połogu, ingerować w stan kliniczny kobiety ciężarnej w konsekwencji kształtując obraz przyszłych pokoleń. W tym czasie u kobiet mogły pojawić się dodatkowe obciążenia psychiczne, które pogarszały stan psychiczny, w wyniku którego mogło dojść do  tzw. zjawiska Baby Blues. Cel pracy Celem badania była ocena poziomu wiedzy na temat zachowań zdrowotnych i połogu różnych grup społecznych województwa świętokrzyskiego w czasie pandemii Covid-19. Materiał i metody                 Badaniem zostało objętych 603 respondentów województwa świętokrzyskiego od lutego do kwietnia 2021 roku. Z badania wykluczono 18 respondentów ze względu na niekompletne wypełnienie  ankiety. Ostatecznie analizę przeprowadzono o dane 584 ankietowanych. Do analiz włączono kobiety i mężczyzn w przedziale wiekowym 19-45 lat, których podzielono na cztery grupy. Do pierwszej grupy zakwalifikowano 130 położnic, drugiej 86 położnych, trzeciej 50 nauczycieli, czwartej 318 studentów UJK. Ankiety od położnic zostały zebrane w Klinice Ginekologii i Położnictwa Wojewódzkiego Szpitala Zespolonego w Kielcach, materiał w pozostałych grupach został zebrany przy pomocy formularza online. Wśród nauczycieli przeważali mieszkańcy małych miast do 50 tys. - 68%, natomiast wśród położnic dotyczyło to środowiska wiejskiego (48,46%). Średni wiek ankietowanych mieścił się w przedziale wiekowym 20-30 lat /65,2%/, między 30 -40 rokiem życia w badaniu wzięło udział 18,2%, powyżej 40 rż- 9,6%,  Osób poniżej 20 r.ż. było 7,1%. W badaniach zastosowano autorski kwestionariusz ankiety za pomocą którego zebrano informacje dotyczące miejsca zamieszkania, wieku, wykształcenia, stanu cywilnego oraz liczby posiadanych dzieci i pytań dotyczących wiedzy na temat połogu. Komisja Bioetyczna Uniwersytetu Jana Kochanowskiego zatwierdziła badanie wiedzy na temat połogu. Informacje niezbędne do przeprowadzenia badania zostały pozyskane w zgodzie z polityką ochrony danych osobowych.                                                              Analiza statystyczna                                                                                                                  Analiza statystyczna przeprowadzona została za pomocą programu komputerowego Statistica 13. Uzyskane wyniki zostały poddane testowi zgodności Chi² zwanemu także testem zgodności Pearsona. Obliczono także współczynniki V Cramera oraz korelacji rangowej Spearmana.                                                                              Wyniki Średnia ocena poziomu wiedzy respondentów wynosi 78,6%. Największy zakres wiedzy posiadały położne, najniższy przedstawiały położnice. Respondenci wszystkich grup mają zadowalający poziom wiedzy na temat czasu trwania połogu, zasad profilaktyki i higieny w tym okresie oraz karmienia noworodka. Swoją wiedzę respondenci pozyskują z książek i czasopism

Autoimmune hepatitis vs. pregnancy

IntroductionAutoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a disease of unknown etiology. In pregnancy, it may have mild clinical course as well as can lead to liver failure, or exacerbation of clinical symptoms. In pregnant women the severity of symptoms is often observed between the second and third trimester, and in the puerperium. The disease is marked by enhanced activity of Th lymphocytes, which hepatocytes recognize as foreign antigens. This results in interleukin production activating B lymphocytes, and the production of specific antibodies attacking and destroying the hepatocytes.Case reportA 35-year old patient, CII PII, 7 Hbd, with autoimmune hepatitis reported for a check-up. Her first pregnancy was 18 years ago, without history of underlying disease, carried to term without complications. The woman gave birth to a baby-son weighing 3,280g, 10 points Apgar. The delivery was spontaneous and uneventful. The patient got pregnant after an 18-year break. When she twice-tested positively for pregnancy, the treatment with azathioprine was switched to prednisolone.Over the pregnancy the patient was hospitalized 4 times, in 25, 29, 35, and 37 week of gestation due to a threat of preterm delivery, and pregnancy-related cholestasis associated with AIH.In 37 week of gestation, delivery was induced, and she gave birth to a healthy male, weighing 2,650 g, body height of 49 cm, 10 points Apgar scale. The liver function improved and stabilized after the delivery. Treatment with prednisolone has been continued, and the patient’s condition is still controlled.Pregnant patients with autoimmune hepatitis often experience exacerbation of the disease, especially in the third trimester, and in the postpartum period. This case shows that with proper care it is possible to continue and terminate pregnancy safely for the mother and her newly born baby

Parents' knowledge of neonatal transitory conditions and their expectations of the midwife

Introduction The neonatal period is the period of the child's adaptation to life outside the mother's body. The child has to adapt to the changes taking place in its body. After delivery, the new-born baby is assessed according to the Apgar scale. Objective of the study The objective of the study was to assess the parents' knowledge of the transitory conditions of neonates and to identify their expectations towards medical personnel. Material and methods 248 women participated in the study. Inhabitants of large cities accounted for 64.5% of the respondents and 16.2% of the respondents were inhabitants of rural areas. Women aged over 35 accounted for 46.8% of patients, 19.3% were patients between the ages of 26 and 30. Patients between the ages of 30 and 35 also accounted for 19.3%. Patients under 25 years of age accounted for 14.6%. The Bioethics Committee approved the project. Statistical analysis was performed with the use of the Statistica computer program. Results 81% of women displayed knowledge about the duration of the neonatal period. 62% of the respondents knew the effect of vitamin K in preventing the occurrence of haemorrhagic disease in the neonate. Half of the women prefer to feed on demand. A big problem among women in childbed is the lack of access to a psychologist. Conclusions Parents cannot recognize transitory conditions in a neonate. Antenatal education of future mothers influences their pro-health behaviour. Parents source their knowledge from their family, friends, guides and books.Introduction The neonatal period is the period of the child's adaptation to life outside the mother's body.

Classical conditioning without verbal suggestions elicits placebo analgesia and nocebo hyperalgesia

The aim of this study was to examine the relationships among classical conditioning, expectancy, and fear in placebo analgesia and nocebo hyperalgesia. A total of 42 healthy volunteers were randomly assigned to three groups: placebo, nocebo, and control. They received 96 electrical stimuli, preceded by either orange or blue lights. A hidden conditioning procedure, in which participants were not informed about the meaning of coloured lights, was performed in the placebo and nocebo groups. Light of one colour was paired with pain stimuli of moderate intensity (control stimuli), and light of the other colour was paired with either nonpainful stimuli (in the placebo group) or painful stimuli of high intensity (in the nocebo group). In the control group, both colour lights were followed by control stimuli of moderate intensity without any conditioning procedure. Participants rated pain intensity, expectancy of pain intensity, and fear. In the testing phase, when both of the coloured lights were followed by identical moderate pain stimuli, we found a significant analgesic effect in the placebo group, and a significant hyperalgesic effect in the nocebo group. Neither expectancy nor fear ratings predicted placebo analgesia or nocebo hyperalgesia. It appears that a hidden conditioning procedure, without any explicit verbal suggestions, elicits placebo and nocebo effects, however we found no evidence that these effects are predicted by either expectancy or fear. These results suggest that classical conditioning may be a distinct mechanism for placebo and nocebo effects

Zaćma wrodzona

Cataract is an eye disease that means opacification of the lens of the eye leading to partial or total blindness. It is common and treatable cause of blindness in children [1]. The prevalence of cataract in children worldwide ranges from 1 to 15 per 10,000. In developed countries, the incidence is 1 to 3 per 10,000 [2]. Cataracts can be detected using a prenatal ultrasound scan performed between 18 and 20 weeks of pregnancy [3,4,5]. Early detection of cataracts and rapid intervention are crucial in the development of normal vision, especially in newborns [4]. The article presents a case report of intrauterine ultrasonographic diagnosis of congenital cataract.                                                                                                                                        Zaćma, inaczej katarakta to choroba oczu polegająca na zmętnieniu soczewki i związaną z tym częściową lub całkowitą ślepotę . Jest ona często występującą uleczalną przyczyną ślepoty u dzieci[1]. Częstość występowania katarakty u dzieci na świecie wynosi od 1 do 15 na 10 000. W krajach rozwiniętych częstość występowania wynosi 1 do 3 na 10 000 [2]. Zaćma może zostać wykryta za pomocą prenatalnego badania USG wykonanego pomiędzy 18. a 20. tygodniem ciąży [3,4,5]. Wczesne wykrycie zaćmy i szybka interwencja mają kluczowe znaczenie w rozwoju prawidłowego widzenia, szczególnie u noworodków [4]. W artykule przedstawiono opis przypadku wewnątrzmacicznego ultrasonograficznego rozpoznania zaćmy wrodzonej.                                                                                                                               &nbsp
