The study involved 100 patients (80 men and 20 women), aged between 27 and 69 years treated at the Department of Cardiology, Medical Academy in Lublin for the first myocardial infarction, and classified for a 4-week rehabilitation in sanatorium. A 24-hours ECG recording with Holter technique (Medilog 3000 manufactured by Oxford Medilog Timed) was performed twice. In the first record cardiac arrhythmias ( extrasystole both supra- and ventricular, ventricular tachycardia) were more frequent in comparison with the results of the second recording carried out after a 4-week rehabilitation.

Background: Injuries to the common peroneal nerve often result in significant sensory and motor function loss, severely affecting patients' quality of life. Although existing treatments, including medication and surgery, provide some degree of efficacy, their effectiveness is limited by factors such as tolerance and adverse side effects.
Methods: This study aims to evaluate the effects of a 4-week regimen of mirror therapy combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation on lower limb function, muscle strength, and sensation in patients with common peroneal nerve injuries.

Objectives: To determine the safety and efficacy of a video-supported Cawthorne-Cooksey exercise program (CCEP) in improving balance, dizziness and decreasing fear of falling in older adults with balance deficits and dizziness.
Methods: Thirty-two older adults were divided into two groups (intervention and control). The intervention group followed a video-supported CCEP group, while the control group received written instructions to maintain their usual activity and counselling on fall prevention.
