Introduction. In the face of the more and more general threat with civilization diseases the promotion of healthy lifestyle should be one of main activities of educational and medical institutions. Aim. The aim of the work was comparison of chosen elements of healthy lifestyle between the young physically active women and non-sports ones. Material and methods. The survey was carried out on 156 women aged 18-35 years, divided into two groups. Persons physically active were classified into Group 1 (n=72), whereas into Group 2 - non-active ones (n=84). The investigative tool was the Inventory of Health-Related Behaviours by Juczyński (where health-related behaviours were rated in four categories: proper nutrition habits, prophylaxis behaviours, and positive attitude and health practices). Differences between the data were qualified with the t-student test for independent groups; level p≤0.05 was accepted as of minimum significance. Results. The results show that physically active persons pay greater attention to healthy lifestyle than non-sports people. The general indicator of health-related behaviours was noticeably higher in Group 1 (p=0.007). Greatest differences (p=0.008) were noted within the range of nutritional habits, and the least significant ones - in positive attitude (p=0.546). Conclusion. The positive influence of the physical activity on other aspects of the healthy lifestyle has been proven. It seems legitimate to promote physical activity among women of every age

Purpose: As part of this paper, three research goals were set. The first one concerns the identification of factors influencing the modal choice to carry intermodal transport units by inland transport. The second goal is related to determining what conditions would have to exist for a given operator to agree to shift the cargo from road to rail transport as part of the modal shift concept. The third goal is to specify the influence of COVID-19 on the modal choice. Design/Methodology/Approach: Earlier studies have confirmed the difficulty in determining modal choice preferences due to their complexity. The complexity of the problem makes the use of quantitative methods ineffective. On the basis of the qualitative research conducted with the use of the in-depth semi structured interview, the authors identified the factors influencing the modal choice, at the same time defining the conditions that would have to be met in order to encourage cargo operators to make greater use of rail transport. Findings: The conducted research study indicated differences in the factors determining the choice of transport modes, mainly depending on the size of the surveyed company. The above-mentioned factors in relation to the entire study group included the time and cost of transport, as well as the availability and quality of transport infrastructure. The surveyed enterprises agreed that the factors that would have to occur to increase the use of rail transport included: increasing the number of reloading points at railway connections and increasing the timeliness of transport. Practical Implications: The results of the research can be used by decision-makers in formulating the directions of development of the transport system, and the entities responsible for the implementation of specific transport infrastructure investments, covering both linear and nodal elements. Originality/Value: The added value of this article is predicated on original research related to the determination of the premises for the selection of the transport mode in freight container transport in Poland. Requirements that could be a stimulus for implementing the modal shift idea in Polish companies. The authors confronted the research results achieved with the current scientific knowledge in this area, in addition, they also raised the topic of the Covid-19 pandemic and its impact on modal choice.

The risk of tinnitus increases in patients above 55 years old that suffer from metabolic conditions and cervical spondylosis. Tinnitus frequently coexist with bilateral sensorineural hearing impairment and are bilateral or they are noticeable in better hearing ear. The most beneficial to tinnitus is causal and symptomatic treatment with several methods application.

Streszczenie: W opracowaniu podjęto problem identyfikacji cech informacji zarządczej, wskazując ich wpływ na procesy organizacyjno-finansowe w przedsiębiorstwie. Całość prezentowanych rozważań podzielono na trzy zasadnicze części. Pierwsza część opracowania eksponuje wieloaspektowość informacji w zarządzaniu przedsiębiorstwem. Druga część jest prezentacją strategicznego znaczenia zarządzania informacją w przedsiębior-stwie. Kolejna, trzecia część pracy jest odpowiedzią na pytanie badawcze. Celem opracowania jest poznanie i identyfikacja cech informacji zarządczej w procesach organizacyjno-finansowych w przedsiębiorstwie. W celu odpowiedzi na pytanie badawcze przedstawiono wyniki badań empirycznych w oparciu o studium przypadku. Wnioski z badań sugerują, iż najważniejszym czynnikiem determinującym procesy organizacyjno-finansowe jest prawidłowa selekcja informacji zarządczej, umożliwiająca podejmowanie trafnych decyzji w obszarze procesów organizacyjno-finansowych przedsiębiorstw. Metodami badawczymi zastosowanymi do realizacji celu są studia literaturowe, analiza dokumentów źródłowych oraz analiza krytyczna materiałów pozyskanych od badanego przedsiębior-stwa. Problematyka identyfikacji cech informacji zarządczej jest ważna i aktualna z uwagi na jej wpływ na zarządzanie procesami organizacyjno-finansowymi w przedsiębiorstwie.Słowa kluczowe: procesy organizacyjno-finansowe, informacja zarządcza
