Virusne bolesti kod djece školske dobi u dermatološkoj ambulanti u razdoblju od 2016. do 2017. godine Viral diseases in school-age children population in dermatology outpatient treatment from 2016 to 2017

Virusne bolesti kože u školskoj dobi česta su dermatološka dijagnoza. Kožne promjene uzrokovane virusima otežavaju način života svim oboljelim osobama, a posebno djeci. Najčešća bolest u promatranoj skupini djece je Verrucae. Od svih virusnih kožnih oboljenja, 62% odnosi se na Verrucae. Osim nje, ostale bolesti evidentirane od 2016. do 2017. godine u Poliklinici Cutis jesu: Molluscum contagiosum, infekcije uzrokovane virusom Herpes simplex, Exanthema infectiosum, Exanthema subitum, bolest šaka, stopala i usta. Ukupno je zabilježeno 218 oboljelih. Po spolu više su obolijevala muška (123) nego ženska djeca (95). Bolest šaka, stopala i usta, Herpes simplex, Exanthema infectiosum i Exanthema subitum javljaju se rijetko, po nekoliko slučajeva godišnje. Najčešće metode u liječenju bradavica koje se primjenjuju u poliklinici su krioterapija, ekskohleacija, premazivanje podofilinom i/ili trikloroctenom kiselinom, elektrokauterizacija i laser, dok se kod moluska najčešće primjenjuje krioterapija i ekskohleacija. Osim dermatologa kao ključne osobe u dijagnosticiranju i liječenju kožnih virusnih oboljenja, važnu ulogu ima i medicinska sestra. Zdravstvena njega u dermatološkoj ambulanti je vrlo kompleksna i specifična. Osim znanja iz zdravstvene njege, rad medicinske sestre u dermatološkoj ambulanti zahtijeva i poznavanje uzročnika same bolesti te kliničku sliku bolesti. Zadatci medicinske sestre u dermatološkoj ambulanti jesu obrada bolesnika, psihička i fizička priprema pacijenta za različite dijagnostičke i terapijske metode, priprema prije operacije, promatranje nakon operacije, edukacija pacijenta i obitelji, psihička podrška, sterilizacija, dezinfekcija te mnogi drugi.Medicinska sestra mora na vrijeme prepoznati kliničku sliku zarazne bolesti te spriječiti daljnje širenje zaraze na ostale pacijente.Također, važno je da liječnik i medicinska sestra u dermatološkoj ambulanti funkcioniraju kao tim kako bi lakše uspostavili odnos povjerenja kod pacijenta, pogotovo ako se radi o nesuradljivom pacijentu ili djetetu

Predictors of Enhancing Human Physical Attractiveness: Data from 93 Countries

People across the world and throughout history have gone to great lengths to enhance their physical appearance. Evolutionary psychologists and ethologists have largely attempted to explain this phenomenon via mating preferences and strategies. Here, we test one of the most popular evolutionary hypotheses for beauty-enhancing behaviors, drawn from mating market and parasite stress perspectives, in a large cross-cultural sample. We also test hypotheses drawn from other influential and non-mutually exclusive theoretical frameworks, from biosocial role theory to a cultural media perspective. Survey data from 93,158 human participants across 93 countries provide evidence that behaviors such as applying makeup or using other cosmetics, hair grooming, clothing style, caring for body hygiene, and exercising or following a specific diet for the specific purpose of improving ones physical attractiveness, are universal. Indeed, 99% of participants reported spending \u3e10 min a day performing beauty-enhancing behaviors. The results largely support evolutionary hypotheses: more time was spent enhancing beauty by women (almost 4 h a day, on average) than by men (3.6 h a day), by the youngest participants (and contrary to predictions, also the oldest), by those with a relatively more severe history of infectious diseases, and by participants currently dating compared to those in established relationships. The strongest predictor of attractiveness-enhancing behaviors was social media usage. Other predictors, in order of effect size, included adhering to traditional gender roles, residing in countries with less gender equality, considering oneself as highly attractive or, conversely, highly unattractive, TV watching time, higher socioeconomic status, right-wing political beliefs, a lower level of education, and personal individualistic attitudes. This study provides novel insight into universal beauty-enhancing behaviors by unifying evolutionary theory with several other complementary perspectives
