Article Synopsis
- Paragangliomas of the head and neck are rare tumors that often don't show symptoms, arising from specialized cells linked to branchial arch development and the neural crest.
- A study conducted at the 5th Military Hospital in Krakow from 2010 to 2014 analyzed the medical records of 13 patients with 16 tumors, highlighting the challenges in diagnosis and management of these tumors.
- Surgical treatment is essential for paragangliomas, generally leading to high cure rates and low chances of recurrence or complications, emphasizing the need for careful pre-operative imaging and skilled surgical techniques.
Effect of some newly synthesized xanthone and piperazine derivatives with cardiovascular activity on rheology of human erythrocytes in vitro.

This in vitro study was designed to examine the effect of some newly synthesized aminoalcanolic derivatives of xanthone (I, II) and aroxyalkyl derivatives of 2-methoxyphenylpiperazine (III, IV) having cardiovascular activity on the haemorheological parameters of RBCs from healthy individuals and patients with chronic venous disease. Additionally, the influence of compounds I-IV on some RBCs associated enzymes such as acetylcholinesterase (Ache), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) and glutathione reductase (GR) as well as glutathione (GSH) content were determined in vitro in RBCs from healthy subjects. The study showed that compounds I, III and IV significantly increased RBCs deformability.

Medical University of Lodz, Department of Orthodontics.
Aim: The aim of the work is to determine the significance of posterior relationship between the first upper and lower molars from the palatal side in diagnosing Class II malocclusions.
Material And Methods: One hundred and fifty diagnostic models and lateral cephalograms of patients from the Zbigniew Żak District Memorial Outpatient Clinic in Cracow were assessed.
Results: Out of 150 patients, skeletal Class II was diagnosed in 108 patients based on measuring the ANB angle (>4°), and in 115 patients based on the Wits appraisal (≥2 mm).
Rheological properties of young and aged erythrocytes in chronic venous disease patients with varicose veins.

We hypothesize that heterogeneity in RBC rheology can be attributed not only to the aging process but also to various disease states. The present study aims at investigating the rheological properties of young and old RBC in chronic venous disease (CVD) patients. RBC were separated on the basis of their density.
