    Abstract Background: Although the Geneva Conventions and Rome Statute demand protections for healthcare facilities during war, breaches of these protections are frequently reported. The ongoing war in Ukraine is no exception, with several healthcare attacks eliciting widespread condemnation. The Ukrainian Healthcare Center (UHC) has been collecting, verifying and documenting attacks on health infrastructure since the Russia-Ukraine War was launched. The aim of this study was to assess UHC documented healthcare facility attacks during the first year (24 February 2022 to 25 February 2023) of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine.
    Methods: The Berkeley Protocol on Digital Open Source Investigations was used to document healthcare attacks. Data collection included temporal factors, location, facility type, attack and weapon type, number of killed and injured healthcare personnel and civilians, and whether facilities were damaged, destroyed or attacked more than once.
    Results: There were 334 documented attacks on 267 Ukrainian healthcare facilities, with 230 facilities being damaged and 37 destroyed. General hospitals, primary care clinics, emergency departments and children's hospitals were most frequently targeted. The majority of attacks took place during the first three months and in eastern Ukrainian oblasts. Heavy weaponry was employed in almost all attacks. The total number of casualties included 97 fatalities and 114 injuries.
    Conclusions: During the first year of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, there were 334 attacks on 267 Ukrainian healthcare facilities documented by the UHC. Heavy weaponry was commonly used, and the direct impact of attacks was considerable in terms of facility damage and casualty tolls.

    Abstract Objective: The study investigates the prognostic impact of body mass index (BMI) in patients hospitalized with heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF).
    Background: Limited data regarding the prognostic impact of BMI in patients with HFmrEF is available.
    Methods: Consecutive patients with HFmrEF (ie, left ventricular ejection fraction 41-49% and signs and/or symptoms of HF) were retrospectively included at one institution from 2016 to 2022. Risk stratification was performed according to WHO-defined BMI groups. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality at 30 months (median follow-up). Kaplan-Meier, uni- and multivariable Cox proportional regression analyses were applied for statistics.
    Results: 1832 consecutive patients with HFmrEF were included with a median BMI of 26.7 kg/m
    Conclusion: In patients hospitalized with HFmrEF, lower BMI was associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality at 30 months, suggesting an obesity paradox in HFmrEF.

    Abstract Structural glycoproteins and cytoskeletal proteins play a major role in the regulation of cellular organization and function. Changes in the structure and function of these proteins are involved in the cascade of events which lead to neoplastic transformation. We evaluated RNA levels, protein localization, and organization of selected proteins in an in vitro model system of respiratory carcinogenesis to examine alterations in cell architecture. Localization of fibronectin (Fn), thrombospondin (Tsp), and F-actin was examined in (1) primary rat tracheal epithelial (RTE) cells; (2) spontaneously immortalized nonneoplastic cells (SPOC-1); and (3) neoplastic cells (EGV5T) derived from tumors arising following transplantation of an N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine-transformed RTE cell line into nude mice. Proteins were stained with fluorescein-labeled antibodies or phalloidin compound and analysis was performed with a confocal laser scanning microscope. Primary RTE cells display organized F-actin stress fibers, perinuclear Fn and Tsp, and pericellular Fn in fibrillar arrays. In larger colonies, Tsp occurs between cells and occasionally in fibrillar arrays. SPOC-1 cells, unlike primary RTE cells and neoplastic EGV5T cells, seldom form junctions and exhibit few cell surface extensions. F-actin stress fibers are reduced in these immortalized cells. F-actin in SPOC-1 cells occurs in the perinuclear region, scattered diffusely throughout the cell and in punctate adhesions. Fn and Tsp are localized to the perinuclear region with Fn staining more intensely. EGV5T neoplastic cells also display a dramatic loss of stress fibers and F-actin is concentrated mainly near the cell periphery. Perinuclear staining of Fn and Tsp occurs in some cells within the colony. Levels of Tsp RNA and Fn RNA and protein are significantly reduced in both cell lines compared to primary RTE cells. We conclude that structural protein disruptions are early events in the transformation of these respiratory epithelial cells.

    Abstract The combination of stamping and subsequent welding of components is an important area of the automotive industry. Stamping inaccuracies affect the final size of the stamping and the welded part. In this article, we deal with a specific component that is produced by such a procedure and is also a common part of the geometry of a car. We focused on the possibility of using a negative phenomenon-deformation during welding-on the partial elimination of inaccuracies arising during stamping. Based on the planned experiment, we created a prediction model for the selected part and its production, with the help of which it is possible to determine suitable welding parameters for a specific dimension of the stamping and the required monitored dimension of the welded part. The article also includes the results of additional experimental measurements verifying the accuracy of the model and prediction maps for practice.

    Abstract Background: Since 2021, international guidelines for cardiopulmonary resuscitation recommend the implementation of so-called "life-saving systems". These systems include smartphone alerting systems (SAS), which enable dispatch centres to alert first responders via smartphone applications, who are in proximity of a suspected out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). However, the effect of SAS on survival remains unknown.
    Aim: The aim is to assess the rate of survival to hospital discharge in adult patients with OHCA not witnessed by emergency medical services (EMS): before and after SAS implementation.
    Design: Multicentre, prospective, observational, intention-to-treat, pre-post design clinical trial.
    Population: Adults (aged ≥ 18 years), OHCA not witnessed by EMS, no traumatic cause for cardiac arrest, cardiopulmonary resuscitation initiated or continued by EMS.
    Setting: Dispatch-centre-based.
    Outcomes: Primary: survival to hospital discharge. Secondary: time to first compression, rate of basic life support measures before EMS arrival, rate of patients with shockable rhythm at EMS arrival, Cerebral Performance Category at hospital discharge, and duration of hospital stay.
    Sample size: Assuming an absolute difference in survival rates to hospital discharge of 4% in the two groups (11% before implementation of the SAS versus 15% after) and 80% power, and a type 1 error rate of 0.05, the required sample size is
    Conclusions: The HEROES trial will investigate the effects of a SAS on the survival rate after OHCA.

    Abstract Cardiac remodeling is frequently observed in patients with heart failure (HF) and serves as an indicator of disease progression and severity. Septal hypertrophy represents an aspect of remodeling that can be easily assessed via an echocardiographic measurement of the interventricular septal end diastole (IVSd), but it has not been evaluated for its prognostic value, particularly in patients with heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF). We retrospectively included 1881 consecutive patients hospitalized with HFmrEF (i.e., a left ventricular ejection fraction of 41-49% and signs and/or symptoms of HF) at one institution during a study period from 2016 to 2022. Septal hypertrophy, defined as an IVSd > 12 mm, was prevalent in 34% of the HFmrEF patients. Although septal hypertrophy was not associated with all-cause mortality at 30 months (median follow-up) (HR = 1.067; 95% CI: 0.898-1.267;
