Human femur heads were obtained from people living in Upper Silesia cities in Poland during endoprosthetoplasty of coxa. The femur heads were cut into 5 cross-sections A-E using a stabilizing device provided with a fixed and a movable part maintained at a 12 degrees angle. As the next step, fragments of articular cartilage, cortical bone and trabecular bone were sectioned off from the cross-sections. In smoker group the large content of chrome of, nickel, zinc pays back attention. In case of individual parts of femur head notice, that the largest place in articular cartilage has accumulating metals. The largest contents of metals were observed in the external sections A and E.

Background: We aimed to identify the central lifestyle, the most impactful among lifestyle factor clusters; the central health outcome, the most impactful among health outcome clusters; and the bridge lifestyle, the most strongly connected to health outcome clusters, across 29 countries to optimise resource allocation for local holistic health improvements.
Methods: From July 2020 to August 2021, we surveyed 16 461 adults across 29 countries who self-reported changes in 18 lifestyle factors and 13 health outcomes due to the pandemic. Three networks were generated by network analysis for each country: lifestyle, health outcome, and bridge networks.
