    Functionality of the photosynthetic system under water stress is of major importance in drought tolerance. Oat (Avena sativa L.) doubled haploid (DH) lines obtained by pollination of F_{1} oat crosses with maize were used to assess the differences in plant genotypic response to soil drought. The investigations were based on the measurements of gas exchange and chlorophyll a fluorescence kinetics. Drought was applied to 17-day-old seedlings by withholding water for 14 days and subsequent plant recovery. Non-stressed optimally watered plants served as controls. Yield components were determined when plants reached full maturity. It was shown differences among the oat lines with respect to drought stress susceptibility (SI) and stress tolerance index mean productivity and drought susceptibility index. Sensitivity to drought of individual DH lines was significantly different, as demonstrated by the correlation between drought susceptibility index and yield components, such as dry weight (GW) or grain number (GN) of the harvested plants. GW and GN were lower in drought-sensitive genotypes exposed to drought stress compared to those resistant to drought. The principal component analysis allow to separate three groups of lines differing in their sensitivity to drought stress and indicated that tolerance to drought in oat has a common genetic background

    The improvement of medical services as an essential component of changes to the medical care system

    The high quality of the medical services, it’s constant improvement and custom approach to the patients needs stand as one of the most important issues of modern healthcare. The patient, being beneficiary, shapes the market of health services through expressing his opinions and expectations. The exclusion of their feedback during management might lead to the loss of reputation on the medical services market. The term “quality”, same as “health” is subjective. Defining quality will depend on experience, knowledge, demands, and expectations of the clients. The aim of the article is to survey the patients’ opinions and expectations towards the quality of healthcare services. The patients expect the constant improvement of that quality during ongoing changes to the healthcare system. They place it very high on their priorities' list. To them quality equals security and medical professionalism. The nature of providing medical services entails that higher quality demand are not possible to meet without overall improvement of how the patients are taken care of

    The Internet has become a significant factor influencing the public health area. It contributes to higher awareness of the health problems in the society and to the greater self-reliance of the patients, it helps to carry out the health promotion campaigns and health education with more effectiveness. Having at our disposal an enormous reserves of specialized knowledge, we become more and more aware patients. One of the most frequent usages of the Internet in the context of one’s health is searching for the medical information – whether it is for the diagnosis, finding the proper form of treatment, looking into the opinion of given specialist, make an appointment with a doctor, collect the results of examinations and so on. The Internet has become one of the most important sources of medical information, and the information on health. However, it also poses a certain threats to the health. It may be used to propagate disadvantageous or even dangerous behaviours, to distribute the addictive or other harmful substances, to promote substances of alleged healthy effectiveness, and to spread untested methods of treatment that is contradictory with modern medical knowledge

    3-D Nucleus Architecture in Oat × Maize Addition Lines

    Get PDF
    The nucleus architecture of hybrid crop plants is not a well-researched topic, yet it can have important implications for their genetic stability and usefulness in the successful expression of agronomically desired traits. In this work we studied the spatial distribution of introgressed maize chromatin in oat maize addition lines with the number of added maize chromosomes varying from one to four. The number of chromosome additions was confirmed by genomic in situ hybridization (GISH). Maize chromosome-specific simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to identify the added chromosomes. GISH on 3-D root and leaf nuclei was performed to assess the number, volume, and position of the maize-chromatin occupied regions. We revealed that the maize chromosome territory (CT) associations of varying degree prevailed in the double disomic lines, while CT separation was the most common distribution pattern in the double monosomic line. In all analyzed lines, the regions occupied by maize CTs were located preferentially at the nuclear periphery. A comparison between the tissues showed that the maize CTs in the leaf nuclei are positioned closer to the center of the nucleus than in the root nuclei. These findings shed more light on the processes that shape the nucleus architecture in hybrids

    The oat × maize chromosome addition (OMA) lines, as hybrids between C3 and C4 plants, can potentially help us understand the process of C4 photosynthesis. However, photosynthesis is often affected by adverse environmental conditions, including drought stress. Therefore, to assess the functioning of the photosynthetic apparatus in OMA lines under drought stress, the chlorophyll content and chlorophyll a fluorescence (CF) parameters were investigated. With optimal hydration, most of the tested OMA lines, compared to oat cv. Bingo, showed higher pigment content, and some of them were characterized by increased values of selected CF parameters. Although 14 days of drought caused a decrease of chlorophylls and carotenoids, only slight changes in CF parameters were observed, which can indicate proper photosynthetic efficiency in most of examined OMA lines compared to oat cv. Bingo. The obtained data revealed that expected changes in hybrid functioning depend more on the specific maize chromosome and its interaction with the oat genome rather than the number of retained chromosomes. OMA lines not only constitute a powerful tool for maize genomics but also are a source of valuable variation in plant breeding, and can help us to understand plant susceptibility to drought. Our research confirms more efficient functioning of hybrid photosynthetic apparatus than oat cv. Bingo, therefore contributes to raising new questions in the fields of plant physiology and biochemistry. Due to the fact that the oat genome is not fully sequenced yet, the mechanism of enhanced photosynthetic efficiency in OMA lines requires further research

    Background. The oat×maize addition (OMA) lines are used for mapping of the maize genome, the studies of centromere-specific histone (CENH3), gene expression, meiotic chromosome behavior and also for introducing maize C4 photosynthetic system to oat. The aim of our study was the identification and molecular-cytogenetic characterization of oat × maize hybrids. Methods. Oat DH lines and oat × maize hybrids were obtained using the wide crossing of Avena sativa L. with Zea mays L. The plants identified as having a Grande- 1 retrotransposon fragment, which produced seeds, were used for genomic in situ hybridization (GISH). Results. A total of 138 oat lines obtained by crossing of 2,314 oat plants from 80 genotypes with maize cv. Waza were tested for the presence of maize chromosomes. The presence of maize chromatin was indicated in 66 lines by amplification of the PCR product (500 bp) generated using primers specific for the maize retrotransposon Grande-1. Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) detected whole maize chromosomes in eight lines (40%). All of the analyzed plants possessed full complement of oat chromosomes. The number of maize chromosomes differed between the OMA lines. Four OMA lines possessed two maize chromosomes similar in size, three OMA-one maize chromosome, and one OMA-four maize chromosomes. In most of the lines, the detected chromosomes were labeled uniformly. The presence of six 45S rDNA loci was detected in oat chromosomes, but none of the added maize chromosomes in any of the lines carried 45S rDNA locus. Twenty of the analyzed lines did not possess whole maize chromosomes, but the introgression of maize chromatin in the oat chromosomes. Five of 66 hybrids were shorter in height, grassy type without panicles. Twenty-seven OMA lines were fertile and produced seeds ranging in number from 1-102 (in total 613). Sixty-three fertile DH lines, out of 72 which did not have an addition of maize chromosomes or chromatin, produced seeds in the range of 1-343 (in total 3,758). Obtained DH and OMA lines were fertile and produced seeds. Discussion. In wide hybridization of oat with maize, the complete or incomplete chromosomes elimination of maize occur. Hybrids of oat and maize had a complete set of oat chromosomes without maize chromosomes, and a complete set of oat chromosomes with one to four retained maize chromosomes

Chodźki 1 Streszczenie Wprowadzenie: Rolą podstawowej opieki zdrowotnej jest opanowanie czynników ryzyka sprzyjających chorobom cywilizacyjnym, jak choroby układu krążenia, czy choroby metaboliczne. Dużą rolą lekarza rodzinnego jest promocja zdrowia, która skupia się na edukacji zdrowotnej społeczeństwa poprzez przekazywanie wiedzy i kompetencji pozwalających na zwiększenie kontroli nad zdrowiem i jego pomnażanie. Cel pracy: Celem pracy była ocena realizacji zaleceń lekarza rodzinnego przez pacjentów w wybranych jednostkach chorobowych. Badanie skupiało się na odpowiedzi na pytanie w jakim stopniu pacjenci z wybranymi jednostkami chorobowymi przestrzegają zaleceń lekarza rodzinnego? Materiał i metody: W badaniu opinii publicznej zastosowano metodę sondażu diagnostycznego, przy zastosowaniu techniki badawczej w formie ankiety. Badanie przeprowadzono przy użyciu autorskiego kwestionariusza ankiety zawierającego 38 pytania. Badaniem objęto 99 pacjentów, z 2 przychodni podstawowej opieki zdrowotnej, z obszaru województwa lubelskiego. Wyniki i wnioski: Z badań wynika potrzeba zwiększenia działań edukacji zdrowotnej w obszarach promocji zdrowego stylu życia. Szczególnie widoczna jest potrzeba zwiększenia promocji badań przesiewowych, wyeliminowania używek, zwiększenia aktywności fizycznej, zwiększenia promocji zdrowej i zbilansowanej diety zawierającej owoce i warzywa. Ma się to przyczynić do zwiększenia odsetka populacji pozostającej w dobrym zdrowiu. Przedmiotowe badanie pokazało, że z grupy 99 badanych aż 52% z nich oceniło swoje zdrowia przeciętnie i źle. Dlatego najważniejszą tu rolę będzie miał lekarz rodzinny, gdyż najczęściej w pierwszej kolejności właśnie do niego udaje się pacjent ze swoim problemem. Słowa kluczowe: podstawowa opieka medyczna, lekarz rodzinny. Abstract Introduction: The role of primary health care is to reduce the risk factors for lifestyle diseases, such as cardiovascular, and metabolic diseases. An important role of the family doctor is the health promotion, which focuses on health education through the transfer of knowledge and competence to increase control over one's health and its multiplication. Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the implementation of the recommendations of the family doctor by patients in selected disease entities. The study focused on responses to the question of the extent to which patients with selected disease units carried out the recommendations of General Practice Doctor. Material and Methods: The survey of public opinion used diagnostic survey method, using a research technique in the form of a questionnaire. The study was conducted using a proprietary questionnaire containing 38 questions. The study included 99 patients of 2 primary care clinics, from the Lublin province. The results and conclusions: The research shows the need to increase health education activities in the areas of promoting healthy lifestyles. Particularly evident is the need to increase the promotion of screening, eliminating stimulants, increasing physical activity, increase the promotion of a healthy and balanced diet containing fruits and vegetables. This should contribute to increase the percentage of the population remains in good health. These study showed that 52% of the respondents from the group of 99 patients rated their health on average and bad. The most important role in improving this situation will be filled by a family doctor, because usually he is a person to which patients go first to solve their health problems.
