Subjective health literacy among Polish adolescents in 2018 vs 2022 - impact of gender, age, and socio-economic factors during COVID-19.

Introduction And Objective: The results of the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) surveys conducted in 2018 and 2022 allow for a comparison of selected health-related indicators from before the COVID-19 pandemic and from its final phase. The aim of the study is to assess the level of health literacy (HL) among Polish students aged 13-17 years.

Material And Methods: The surveys were conducted with nationwide samples of students (N2018=5648 and N2022=4994, respectively).

An inhibitory segment within G-patch activators tunes Prp43-ATPase activity during ribosome assembly.

Mechanisms by which G-patch activators tune the processive multi-tasking ATP-dependent RNA helicase Prp43 (DHX15 in humans) to productively remodel diverse RNA:protein complexes remain elusive. Here, a comparative study between a herein and previously characterized activators, Tma23 and Pxr1, respectively, defines segments that organize Prp43 function during ribosome assembly. In addition to the activating G-patch, we discover an inhibitory segment within Tma23 and Pxr1, I-patch, that restrains Prp43 ATPase activity.

High-Resolution Phase-Based Ranging Using Inverse Fourier Transform in an Iterative Bayesian Approach.

This article proposes an algorithm that determines the distance between two transceivers based on phase information collected in a specific frequency range. Even though we have focused on BLE technology, we do not necessarily adhere strictly to this standard regarding the procedures used to obtain phased samples. We assume that phase samples are given and propose an algorithm using a Bayesian approach to find delays in a multi-path environment.

Changes in body weight in various population groups in Poland during the COVID-19 pandemic - a comparison of two cross-sectional studies.

Introduction And Objective: The disruption of daily activities caused by the COVID-19 pandemic had health consequences, especially during peak lockdown periods. The aim of the study is to assess the impact of the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic on the process of weight change among Polish adults.

Material And Methods: Two representative studies involving Polish adults aged 18-65 years were conducted, the first in June 2020 (N = 2527, from the perspective of the last 2-3 months), and the second a year later, in June 2021 (N = 2087, covering the last 12 months).
