Abstract	Introduction and objective: One of the most frequent musculoskeletal disorders is neck pain (NP). NP can be associated with occupational activities and is more common among females than males. Horticulture is a branch of agriculture in which work is intensively manual, and characterized by repetitive tasks. The aim of the cross-sectional study was to analyze the association between pain intensity, neck disability index (NDI), and working conditions in terms of selected factors related to work in horticulture. Material and methods: 44 women employed in horticulture met eligibility criteria (experienced necked pain). Five factors related to working conditions were investigated: work experience, upper extremity position, head position, prophylaxis, and stress frequency. NDI and visual analog scale (VAS) were used to investigate pain intensity and disability. Results: It was found that the position of the upper limb at work and the frequency of stress were significantly associated with the VAS score (p=0.046 and p=0.02, respectively). With regard to NDI total score, a statistically significant association was found between work experience and stress frequency (p=0.02 and p=0.01, respectively). Analysis of the relationship between VAS and NDI total score showed a statistically significant weak positive correlation (R=0.39; p=0.01). Conclusions: NP and NDI are related to the activities that women working in horticulture have to perform. Stress seems to be an important factor in cervical problems among female workers leading to an increase in NP and disability.

Abstract	Background: The mechanism of acute brain injury initiates a cascade of consequences which can directly cause lung damage, and this can contribute to poor neurological outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate concentration of different apoptotic molecules in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in patients after severe brain injury and to correlate them with selected clinical variables and mortality. Methods: Patients with brain injury receiving BALF operation were included in the study. BALF samples were collected within the first 6-8 hours after traumatic brain injury (A) and at days 3 (B) and 7 (C) after admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Changes in the BALF nuclear-encoded protein (Bax), apoptotic regulatory protein (Bcl-2), pro-apoptotic protein (p53) and its upregulated modulator (PUMA), apoptotic protease factor 1 (APAF-1), Bcl-2 associated agonist of cell death (BAD) and caspase-activated DNase (CAD) were analysed. These values were correlated with the selected oxygenation parameters, Rotterdam computed tomography (CT) score, the Glasgow Coma Score and 28-day mortality. Results: We found a significant increase in the concentration of selected apoptotic factors at admission (A), at day 3 (B) and day 7 (C) after severe brain damage contrasted with baseline level A ( Conclusions: Activation of different apoptotic pathways seems to be an important process occurring in the lungs of patients in the early phases after severe brain trauma. Levels of apoptotic factors in the BALF correlates with the severity of brain injury.

Abstract	Introduction: To date, there are no literature reports of research investigating the relationship between depression and chronic heart failure (CHF) in relation to selected nutritional, cardiac and laboratory parameters. Aim: To compare CHF parameters in relation to nutritional and laboratory parameters between depressed and non-depressed patients. Material and methods: We enrolled 94 CHF individuals from Lubelskie Voivodeship to assess depression prevalence and to compare values of cardiac, laboratory and nutritional parameters between depressed and non-depressed patients. Results: Depression was diagnosed in 66 (70.2%) individuals. We noted significantly lower ejection fraction (EF) (EF%) in the group of depressive patients compared to disease-free individuals (mean EF%: 42 ±12 and 49 ±9; Conclusions: Depression in CHF patients is associated with worse cardiac, laboratory and nutritional outcomes. Unfavorable clinical characteristics of CHF patients are related to depression severity.

Abstract	The filtration coefficient in the Starling equation is an important determinant of plasma refilling during hemodialysis. A method for calculating from clinical data an estimate of the filtration coefficient, called the refilling coefficient, was proposed in the past. The assumption behind this method was that the only drive for refilling is the increase in plasma oncotic pressure, and the remaining Starling forces have negligible effect. The refilling coefficient was observed to decrease during hemodialysis, and this was interpreted as a change in the filtration coefficient. The purpose of our study was providing an alternative explanation for the behavior of the refilling coefficient and, using clinical data and mathematical modeling, to predict the values of the immeasurable Starling forces and provide the theoretical basis for the interpretation of the refilling coefficient as the filtration coefficient. Blood volume and bioimpedance data from 23 patients undergoing hemodialysis were used to calculate the refilling coefficient according to the original formulation and to fit a two-compartment model of protein and fluid transport. The changes in the other Starling forces were non-negligible, ranging from 19% to 60% of plasma oncotic pressure. The results showed that the decrease observed in the refilling coefficient is likely caused by neglecting important changes in the Starling forces while deriving the equation for the refilling coefficient. When these Starling forces were taken into account, constant filtration coefficient and dynamic refilling coefficient provided an equivalent description of the data in most cases. However, this was not true for a subgroup of sessions, which suggests that additional factors may also be responsible for the observed decrease in the refilling coefficient.

Abstract	Background: Relative blood volume (RBV) changes during hemodialysis (HD) are typically estimated based on online measurements of hematocrit, hemoglobin or total blood protein. The aim of this study was to assess changes in the above parameters during HD in order to compare the potential differences in the RBV changes estimated by individual methods. Methods: 25 anuric maintenance HD patients were monitored during a 1-week conventional HD treatment. Blood samples were collected from the arterial dialysis blood line at the beginning and at the end of each HD session. The analysis of blood samples was performed using the hematology analyzer Advia 2120 and clinical chemistry analyzer Advia 1800 (Siemens Healthcare). Results: During the analyzed 30 HD sessions with ultrafiltration in the range 0.7-4.0 L (2.5 ± 0.8 L) hematocrit (HCT) increased by 9.1 ± 7.0% (mean ± SD), hemoglobin (HGB) increased by 10.6 ± 6.3%, total plasma protein (TPP) increased by 15.6 ± 9.5%, total blood protein (TBP) increased by 10.4 ± 5.8%, red blood cell count (RBC) increased by 10.8 ± 7.1%, while mean corpuscular red cell volume (MCV) decreased by 1.5 ± 1.1% (all changes statistically significant, p < 0.001). HGB increased on average by 1.5% more than HCT (p < 0.001). The difference between HGB and TBP increase was insignificant (p = 0.16). Conclusions: Tracking HGB or TBP can be treated as equivalent for the purpose of estimating RBV changes during HD. Due to the reduction of MCV, the HCT-based estimate of RBV changes may underestimate the actual blood volume changes.

Abstract	BACKGROUND Head and neck cancers (HNC) are the 7th most prevalent neoplasms in the world. In 50% of these patients, body weight loss and malnutrition are observed before the beginning of therapy. It is known that an important role in the pathomechanism of malnutrition and cachexia is played by the development of inflammation, degradation of muscle fibers, and browning of white adipose tissue (WAT). It was demonstrated that even a slight increase in irisin concentration leads to browning of WAT. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study group consisted of 50 patients with HNC. The nutritional status of the patients was assessed by the Nutritional Risk Score 2002 (NRS 2002) and Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) scales. Using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), the parameters fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM) were obtained. RESULTS Higher irisin values (1.57 vs 1.18 [ng/ml], P=0.0004) were observed in patients with higher nutritional risk (≥3) evaluated according to the NRS scale. In patients assessed as B or C on the SGA scale, higher values of irisin concentration (1.38 vs 1.07 [ng/ml], P=0.0139) were noted. It was also observed that the level of irisin before treatment was negatively correlated (rho=-0.30, p=0.0350) with FM% and was positively correlated (rho=0.30, p=0.0340) with FFM% in BIA measurements performed after the 7th cycle of RTH. CONCLUSIONS Based on these results, we conclude that patients with malnutrition tend to have higher irisin values compared to normally nourished patients. A high level of irisin may be a useful marker of malnutrition in patients with HNC.

Abstract	Background: Mathematical models are useful tools to predict fluid shifts between body compartments in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). The ability of a model to accurately describe the transport of water between cells and interstitium (Jv,ISIC), and the consequent changes in intracellular volume (ICV), is important for a complete assessment of fluid distribution and plasma refilling. In this study, we propose a model describing transport of fluid in the three main body compartments (intracellular, interstitial and vascular), complemented by transport mechanisms for proteins and small solutes. Methods: The model was applied to data from 23 patients who underwent standard HD. The substances described in the baseline model were: water, proteins, Na, K, and urea. Small solutes were described with two-compartment kinetics between intracellular and extracellular compartments. Solute transport across the cell membrane took place via passive diffusion and, for Na and K, through the ATPase pump, characterized by the maximum transport rate, JpMAX. From the data we estimated JpMAX and two other parameters linked to transcapillary transport of fluid and protein: the capillary filtration coefficient Lp and its large pores fraction αLP. In an Expanded model one more generic solute was included to evaluate the impact of the number of substances appearing in the equation describing Jv,ISIC. Results: In the baseline model, median values (interquartile range) of estimated parameters were: Lp: 11.63 (7.9, 14.2) mL/min/mmHg, αLP: 0.056 (0.050, 0.058), and JpMAX: 5.52 (3.75, 7.54) mmol/min. These values were significantly different from those obtained by the Expanded model: Lp: 8.14 (6.29, 10.01) mL/min/mmHg, αLP: 0.046 (0.038, 0.052), and JpMAX: 16.7 (11.9, 25.2) mmol/min. The relative RMSE (root mean squared error)averaged between all simulated quantities compared to data was 3.9 (3.1, 5.6) %. Conclusions: The model was able to accurately reproduce most of the changes observed in HD by tuning only three parameters. While the drop in ICV was overestimated by the model, the difference between simulations and data was less than the measurement error. The biggest change in the estimated parameters in the Expanded model was a marked increase of JpMAX indicating that this parameter is highly sensitive to the number of species modeled, and that the value of JpMAX should be interpreted only in relation to this factor.

Abstract	Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Pulse wave analysis (PWA) technique, which reconstructs and analyses aortic pressure waveform based on non-invasive peripheral pressure recording, became an important bioassay for cardiovascular assessment in a general population. The aim of our study was to establish a pulse wave propagation modeling framework capable of matching clinical PWA data from healthy individuals on a per-subject basis. Radial pressure profiles from 20 healthy individuals (10 males, 10 females), with mean age of 42 ± 10 years, were recorded using applanation tonometry (SphygmoCor, AtCor Medical, Australia) and used to estimate subject-specific parameters of mathematical model of blood flow in the system of fifty-five arteries. The model was able to describe recorded pressure profiles with high accuracy (mean absolute percentage error of 1.87 ± 0.75%) when estimating only 6 parameters for each subject. Cardiac output (CO) and stroke volume (SV) have been correctly identified by the model as lower in females than males (CO of 3.57 ± 0.54 vs. 4.18 ± 0.72 L/min with p-value < 0.05; SV of 49.5 ± 10.1 vs. 64.2 ± 16.8 ml with p-value = 0.076). Moreover, the model identified age related changes in the heart function, i.e. that the cardiac output at rest is maintained with age (r = 0.23; p-value = 0.32) despite the decreasing heart rate (r = -0.49; p-value < 0.05), because of the increase in stroke volume (r = 0.46; p-value < 0.05). Central PWA indices derived from recorded waveforms strongly correlated with those obtained using corresponding model-predicted radial waves (r > 0.99 and r > 0.97 for systolic (SP) and diastolic (DP) pressures, respectively; r > 0.77 for augmentation index (AI); all p-values < 0.01). Model-predicted central waveforms, however, had higher SP than those reconstructed by PWA using recorded radial waves (5.6 ± 3.3 mmHg on average). From all estimated subject-specific parameters only the time to the peak of heart ejection profile correlated with clinically measured AI. Our study suggests that the proposed model may serve as a tool to computationally investigate virtual patient scenarios mimicking different cardiovascular abnormalities. Such a framework can augment our understanding and help with the interpretation of PWA results.
