    Abstract Research published especially in the last decade indicates the influence of anxiety on the human decision-making process. This study analyzes the anxiety among individuals who decided to undergo vaccinations for COVID-19. The study assesses that the level of education, especially medical education, age, and gender, had an influence on the level of anxiety in terms of vaccination situations. The STAI self-assessment questionnaire was used. The study was conducted anonymously using the paper-pencil method during two rounds of vaccination; therefore, the respondent sample included mainly medical personnel and elderly people. A total of 898 questionnaires were issued. Age did not affect the trait and state of anxiety, but highly educated people tested during vaccination had a lower anxiety level. Gender had no influence on the trait but did influence the state of anxiety. Overall, women were the group that exhibited a higher level of anxiety than men. Nurses were particularly vulnerable to the negative effects of situational medication in this group.

    Abstract Introduction: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with thrombus formation on a ruptured or ulcerated atherosclerotic plaque. The consequences of a massive thrombus (MT) may include lack of reperfusion, extensive myocardial infarction (MI) and its complications. Although there are various treatment options for patients with coronary thrombi, double protection (DP) - manual thrombectomy (MTH) with a distal protection device (DPD) - has not been tested yet.
    Aim: To present DP outcomes in the treatment of patients with STEMI and MT patients.
    Material and methods: Fourteen patients with STEMI and MT were included in the study. Those patients underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) with DP.
    Results: Inferior MI was found in 12 (85.8%) patients. Stents were implanted in 13 (92.8%) patients. Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Thrombus Grade 5 was present in 11 (78.6%) patients and Grade 4 in 3 (21.4%) patients. The median thrombus length was 39.1 mm. Complete reperfusion (TIMI flow 3) was observed in 11 (78.6%) patients and TIMI flow 2 in 3 (21.4%) patients. Myocardial Blush Grade (MBG) was used in patients with TIMI flow 3 and Grade 3 was found in 5 (35.7%) patients. Resolution in ST-segment elevation > 50% was obtained in 13 (92.8%) patients. No myocardial rupture, stroke, or death occurred during hospitalization.
    Conclusions: DP in MT patients is a safe and feasible procedure. However, further observations and studies are needed to assess the efficacy of this method.

    Abstract Introduction: Randomized trials have proven the feasibility and safety of the bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) in selected populations of patients. Data concerning the results of BVS in "real-world" registries with an appropriate sample size are limited.
    Aim: Assessment of early- and long-term outcomes of patients undergoing bioresorbable scaffold implantation in an all-comers population of the ZABRZE-BVS registry.
    Material and methods: The ZABRZE-BVS registry is a prospective registry including consecutive patients treated in the period 2013-2016 with the intention to implant a BVS (ABSORB, Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, California). The primary endpoint was occurrence of the 12- and 24-month device-oriented composite endpoint (DoCE) defined as cardiac death, target-vessel myocardial infarction (TV-MI) or target lesion revascularization (TLR). The secondary endpoint includes occurrence of patient-oriented composite endpoint (PoCE) at 12 and 24 months, device (lesion basis) and procedural success (patient basis).
    Results: A total of 456 patients during 467 procedures received 588 scaffolds in 563 lesions. Of note, 25.4% of patients presented with diabetes mellitus and 62.3% had an acute coronary syndrome. In QCA analysis, 78.7% of patients had type B2/C lesions, minimal lumen diameter was 0.78 ±0.54 mm, whereas post-procedural acute lumen gain was 1.61 ±0.61 mm. Median follow-up was 781 days. The cumulative rate of DoCE was 6.7% at 12 months and 12.2% at 24 months. Rates of 12- and 24-month PoCE were 12.4% and 20.1%, respectively. The percentage of device success was 98.7%, while the procedural success rate was 96.9%.
    Conclusions: The Absorb BVS was successfully and safely implanted in an unselected group of patients. Scaffold thrombosis developed predominantly in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
