Stanisława Tarnowskiego w Tarnobrzegu StreszczenieWstęp. Autorzy wielu prac potwierdzają popularny pogląd, że „palacze piją, a pijący palą”. Ponadto ci, którzy piją najwięcej, zwykle też najwięcej palą. Jednoczesne używanie tych dwóch środków stanowi istotne zagrożenie dla zdrowia publicznego. Badania przeprowadzane wśród osób leczonych z powodu alkoholizmu i innych uzależnień wykazały, że w okresie 12 lat zmarły 222 osoby spośród 845 badanych.Celem pracy jest ukazanie, czy czynniki społeczno – demograficzne mają wpływ na stosowanie używek takich jak: papierosy i alkohol.Materiał i metody. Badania przeprowadzono w 2015 roku w jednej z lubelskiej przychodni. Do badań zakwalifikowano 148 respondentów. Zastosowaną metodą w badaniach był sondaż diagnostyczny a wykorzystaną techniką kwestionariusz wywiadu przeprowadzony wśród respondentów, w którym wykorzystano metryczkę i wywiad . Badaniem objęto 148 respondentów, których podzielono na 2 grupy: uczących się i pracujących.Wyniki. Badania własne ukazały, że palenie tytoniu to nałóg nie spotykany u 74,6% respondentów uczących się i 46% pracujących. Osoby uczące się tj. w młodszym wieku, mniej palą niż osoby starsze. Analiza statystyczna wykazała, że alkoholu nie pija tylko 9 badanych (13,8%) wśród osób uczących się i 21 (26,3%)wśród pracujących.WnioskiWedług przedstawionych badań na stosowanie alkoholu wpływa zarówno wiek, płeć jak i miejsce zamieszkania, natomiast na palenie papierosów ma wpływ wiek respondentów. Słowa kluczowe: stosowanie używek, czynniki społeczno-demograficzne. AbstractIntroduction. A number of scientists confirm the common belief that “smokers drink and drunks smoke”. In addition, those who abuse alcohol the most usually smoke excessively. Simultaneous abusing both of these substances poses a threat to public health. The research conducted among patients treated with the addiction to alcohol and other addictions as well has shown that in the span of twelve years, out of 845 examined patients, 222 persons died. The aim of this paper is to show whether socio-demographic factors exert an impact on using such stimulants as: cigarettes and alcohol.Materials and methods. The research was carried out in a clinic in Lublin in the year 2015. 148 respondents were qualified for the investigation. The method applied for the study was a diagnostic survey, and the technique used was a questionnaire conducted in the form of an interview with respondents, taking into account their birth certificate and an interview. The investigation covered 148 persons, who were split into 2 groups: the learning and the working ones.Findings. The investigation indicated that smoking nicotine is a habit which is not found in 74.6% studying persons and in 46% working persons. Students, i.e. persons at a younger age, smoke less than older persons. The statistical analysis revealed that alcohol is not consumed by only 9 examined persons (13.8%) out of the studying ones, and 21 (26.3%) out of the working ones.Conclusions. In the light of the research, alcohol consumption is linked with both age, gender and the place of living, whereas smoking cigarettes is connected with the age of the respondents. Key words: use of stimulants, socio-demographic factors
Metastasis of breast cancer to the bone
Spinal metastases are a complex but common manifestation of primary cancer. The most common use of spinal metastases is breast, lung and prostate cancer. Management of patients suffering from spinal metastases, which take into account the characteristics of cancer and various methods of treatment consisting of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Metastatic spine cancer surgery is used with a low risk of complications because it results in significant relief of pain and long-term survival burdens. Pain relief, prevention of bone complications and maintenance of quality of life are included in the recommendations in metastatic bone disease. Knowledge related to the pathophysiology of painful metastases is changing quite quickly. However, for analyzing the pathophysiology of painful bone metastases may be the key to analgesic effects with minimal side effects

Streszczenie.
Celem badań była ocena wpływu ilości spożywanych posiłków w ciągu dnia na wskaźnik BMI.
Metody i materiał. Badania przeprowadzono w okresie styczeń – luty 2015 roku w jednej z lubelskiej przychodni. Do badań zakwalifikowano 148 respondentów. Zastosowaną metodą w badaniach był sondaż diagnostyczny, a wykorzystaną techniką kwestionariusz wywiadu przeprowadzony wśród respondentów, w którym wykorzystano: metryczkę, wywiad i badanie antropometryczne obejmujące pomiar wysokości i masy ciała, na podstawie których określono wskaźnik masy ciała BMI (ang. Body Mass Index).
Wyniki. Ilość dziennie spożywanych posiłków przez respondentów jest różna. Biorąc pod uwagę wiek respondentów, który traktowany jest jako przynależność do jednej z grup, uczących się lub pracujących zauważono że osoby uczące się najczęściej spożywają 4-5 posiłki zadeklarowało tak 40 badanych (58,8%), 3 posiłki spożywa 21 osób (30,9%). Od 6- do 8 posiłków dziennie spożywa 5 osób (7,4%) w tej grupie zaś 2osoby zjadają tylko 2 posiłki (2,9%).
Wnioski. Na podstawie przeprowadzonych badań własnych sformułowano następujące wnioski:
- na regularność spożywania posiłków nie mają wpływu wiek i płeć respondentów, istnieje natomiast istotny związek między miejscem zamieszkania a ilością spożywanych posiłków.
- na wartość wskaźnika BMI ma wpływ wiek i płeć respondentów. Osoby uczące się oraz
kobiety przywiązują uwagę do swojej wagi i BMI częściej osiąga granice wskazujące na
prawidłową masę ciała.
- pierwsze śniadania są spożywane przez większość respondentów i nie mają na to wpływu czynniki społeczno - demograficzne takie jak wiek, płeć i miejsce zamieszkania.
Słowa kluczowe: otyłość, wskaźnik BMI.
Summary
The aim of the investigation is to assess the influence of the number of consumed meals upon the BMI.
Methods and materials
The research was conducted from January to February 2015 in a medical clinic in Lublin. 148 respondents were qualified for the research. The applied method was a diagnostic survey carried out among the respondents, which used: the birth certificate, interview as well as anthropometric measurements, covering the body height and body mass. In this way, the Body Mass Index was determined.
Findings
The number of meals, consumed daily, varied. Taking into account the age of the respondents, which served to divide the persons into different groups – studying or working ones, it was observed that students usually consume four to five meals, as declared by 40 examined persons (58.8%). 21 persons consumed three meals (30.9%), 5 persons ate between six and eight meals per day (7.4%), and only two persons consumed two meals (2.9%).
Conclusions
- On the basis of the conducted research, the author was able to draw the following conclusions:
- the age or gender of the respondents does not influence the regularity of consumed meals; there is a significant link, however, between the place of living and the number of the consumed meals.
- the age or gender of the respondents exerts an impact upon the BMI. Studying persons, women treat their weight as important. In this case, BMI comes close to proper Body Mass values.
- the first meal (breakfast) is consumed by the majority of the respondents and is not affected by such social-demographic factors as age, gender or place of living.
Key words: obesity, BMI (Body Mass Index)
Naming Game on Adaptive Weighted Networks
We examine a naming game on an adaptive weighted network. A weight of
connection for a given pair of agents depends on their communication success
rate and determines the probability with which the agents communicate. In some
cases, depending on the parameters of the model, the preference toward
successfully communicating agents is basically negligible and the model behaves
similarly to the naming game on a complete graph. In particular, it quickly
reaches a single-language state, albeit some details of the dynamics are
different from the complete-graph version. In some other cases, the preference
toward successfully communicating agents becomes much more relevant and the
model gets trapped in a multi-language regime. In this case gradual coarsening
and extinction of languages lead to the emergence of a dominant language,
albeit with some other languages still being present. A comparison of
distribution of languages in our model and in the human population is
discussed.Comment: 22 pages, accepted in Artificial Lif

Support received by women with breast cancer in the event of side effects of chemotherapy
Admission.
Correct chemotherapy introduces many side effects. These effects, spread over time and in connection with a chronic disease such as breast cancer, put the patient in a crisis situation, which verifies the needs in terms of social support.
Goal:
Showing the type of social support expected and received by women treated with cytostatics for breast cancer.
Material and methods:
The study was conducted on a group of 110 women - patients of oncology departments of two Lublin hospitals diagnosed with breast cancer and during chemotherapy. The research tool was the author's questionnaire. The results from the obtained data were subjected to statistical analysis.
Results:
Patients expect information support about their illness and treatment from a doctor. In some respects, most of them receive such support. The respondents receive emotional support from their families, more than half of them received an offer of material support. There is a statistically significant relationship between education and the need for material assistance, and a relationship between the next cycle of chemotherapy and the demand for spiritual support.
Conclusions:
Patients treated with cytostatics, regardless of their level of education, expect information support from professionals. Such support cannot be provided by family or friends. They receive emotional support from loved ones, but during chemotherapy, the demand for spiritual and material support increases, regardless of education
Using the benefits of primary health care (PHC) through women cured for breast cancer
Admission. The treatment of patients with breast cancer over the years has changed significantly. In view of the above, these patients are more and more often long-term patients, not only oncological but also PHC.
Aim: To present opinions of women being treated for breast cancer on the use of PHC services.
Material and methods: The study was conducted on a group of 95 patients of oncological counseling. The research tool was the original questionnaire, GSES - Scale of Generalized Own Efficiency. The results from the obtained data were subjected to statistical analysis.
Results: Older patients treated more often with PHC are treated for additional disease, apart from cancer, with a low level of their own effectiveness, with basic or vocational education. However, the services of PHC nurses are more often used by people with higher education. Patients of the oncological counseling center assess lowly the healthcare providers for oncology education.
Conclusions: A small share of PHC employees in education of patients treated for breast cancer causes that oncologic outpatient clinic patients for PHC apply mainly for: obtaining a prescription, ruling or performing diagnostic tests

The Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment: Exploring Fundamental Symmetries of the Universe
The preponderance of matter over antimatter in the early Universe, the
dynamics of the supernova bursts that produced the heavy elements necessary for
life and whether protons eventually decay --- these mysteries at the forefront
of particle physics and astrophysics are key to understanding the early
evolution of our Universe, its current state and its eventual fate. The
Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE) represents an extensively developed
plan for a world-class experiment dedicated to addressing these questions. LBNE
is conceived around three central components: (1) a new, high-intensity
neutrino source generated from a megawatt-class proton accelerator at Fermi
National Accelerator Laboratory, (2) a near neutrino detector just downstream
of the source, and (3) a massive liquid argon time-projection chamber deployed
as a far detector deep underground at the Sanford Underground Research
Facility. This facility, located at the site of the former Homestake Mine in
Lead, South Dakota, is approximately 1,300 km from the neutrino source at
Fermilab -- a distance (baseline) that delivers optimal sensitivity to neutrino
charge-parity symmetry violation and mass ordering effects. This ambitious yet
cost-effective design incorporates scalability and flexibility and can
accommodate a variety of upgrades and contributions. With its exceptional
combination of experimental configuration, technical capabilities, and
potential for transformative discoveries, LBNE promises to be a vital facility
for the field of particle physics worldwide, providing physicists from around
the globe with opportunities to collaborate in a twenty to thirty year program
of exciting science. In this document we provide a comprehensive overview of
LBNE's scientific objectives, its place in the landscape of neutrino physics
worldwide, the technologies it will incorporate and the capabilities it will
possess.Comment: Major update of previous version. This is the reference document for
LBNE science program and current status. Chapters 1, 3, and 9 provide a
comprehensive overview of LBNE's scientific objectives, its place in the
landscape of neutrino physics worldwide, the technologies it will incorporate
and the capabilities it will possess. 288 pages, 116 figure
