StreszczenieWstęp: Zaburzenia równowagi ciała są jednym z wielu czynników negatywnie wpływa-jącym na codzienną aktywność, co skutkuje pogorszeniem jakości życia człowieka. Celem pracy była cena różnic wyników stabilometrycznych w dynamice i statyce u kobiet młod-szych, starszych i z dysfunkcją narządu wzroku.Materiał i metody: Materiał badany obejmował 67 kobiet podzielonych na 3 grupy: 26 kobiet młodszych (20,2 ± 1,75) i 26 starszych (68,7 ± 7,55) oraz 15 osób z dysfunkcją narządu wzroku (19,2±1,78). Wykonano badania stabilometryczne na dwóch platformach; Accusway i Balans System SD.Wyniki: Wyniki różniące się istotnie statystycznie odnotowano pomiędzy grupą osób młodszych a starszych w wynikach parametrów z platformy Accusway badanych z kontrolą wzrokową tylko w polu powierzchni stabilogramu oraz w maksymalnych wychyleniach na boki. W powyższych grupach na platformie BBS obserwuje się znamienne różnice we wszystkich ocenianych próbach. Największe różnice obserwuje się na poziomie p<0,0001 w protokołach z niestabilnym podłożem. Najlepsze wyniki długości COP w warunkach oczu zamkniętych w statyce osiągnęły osoby z dysfunkcją narządu wzroku (37,01±6,73), najsłabsze kobiety po 60 r. ż. (49,59±21,04). Natomiast badania na niestabilnym podłożu bez kontroli wzrokowej osoby starsze nie wykonały, a kobiety z dysfunkcją narządu wzroku osiągnęły istotnie gorsze rezultaty od grupy osób normalnie widzących.Wnioski: Większe zaangażowanie systemu kontroli równowagi obserwuje się w badaniach dynamicznych, które wydają się być bardziej odpowiednie i mogą wcześniej wykrywać zaburzenia niż badania w statyce. Szczególnie przydatne wydają się protokoły badań ze zmiennym ustawieniem niestabilności platformy lub dodatkowo bez kontroli wzrokowej, które najbardziej różnicują badanych.

Aim: evaluation of the differences in static and dynamic postural stability in young, elderly and with vision loss women.Material and methods: Eighty-three female volunteers were divided into three groups: 26 young women (20,2 ± 1,75), 26 elderly (68,7 ± 7,55) and 15 pupils with vision loss (19,2±1,78). The following parameters were analysed from Accusway and BBS platforms.
s u m m a r yWe investigated the impact of two consecutive training sessions on spirometric and anthropometric parameters in 23 older healthy women. Spirometric and anthropometric measurements were taken before the program, after a short high-intensity training program, and again after 12-week regular mildintensity exercises. We found significant differences between vital capacity (VC)% at baseline versus after 2 weeks. The 12-week values were better than at baseline, but lower than those that had been achieved after the intensive training. There were no changes in other respiratory parameters. However, chest expansion was significantly improved after 12 weeks. Intensive physical exercise training was confirmed to be beneficial for older women, possibly slowing down the deterioration of some spirometric parameters [VC%, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1 )%, obstruction] sustaining improved quality of life.
Study aim: The aim of the study was to determine connections between the functional asymmetry of limbs and the morphological asymmetry of feet. Material and methods:The study population consisted of 56 students: 30 females (mean age 20.29 ± 0.59 years) and 26 males (mean age 20.41 ± 0.78 years). The measurements of body build were taken with classical instruments. Body build was assessed on the basis of body height, body mass, and BMI. Seven features of the foot and 8 indices of foot arches were assessed. Assessment of laterality in upper and lower limbs was conducted on the basis of data from repeated interviews, and then verified with simple motor tests that imitated characteristic functions of the limbs. Asymmetry indices were calculated in order to determine asymmetries of the features. Mollison's index was applied to assess dimorphic differences. Results: Features that were statistically different in the foot of the dominant limb and in the foot of the non-dominant limb were: among the group of females, the foot length without hindfoot, and the Clarke's angle; among the group of males -the foot length without toes. Analyses of results of this study do not allow for a claim that laterality of lower extremities has a considerable impact on indices of longitudinal and transverse foot arches. Conclusions:The following conclusions were formulated on the basis of the conducted analysis regarding the group of subjects with homogeneous right laterality: -in females, the dominant limb's foot is characterized by a shorter bone arm lever for dorsiflexors; -in males, the dominant limb's foot is characterized by a shorter bone arm lever for plantaflexors.
