The aim of this study was to find differences related to diet quality and knowledge on nutrition among Polish, German, and Slovakian students as well as to examine which factors differentiate the diet quality of students from these three countries. The study was conducted on a group of 394 university students from Poland, Germany, and Slovakia. The assessment of diet quality and knowledge on food and nutrition was done with the use of the Dietary Habits and Nutrition Beliefs Questionnaire. The diet of German students was characterized by a significantly higher consumption of legume-based foods, vegetables, and fruit compared to Polish students and Slovakian participants (p < 0.001). The diet of the Poles was characterized by a high consumption of cured meat, smoked sausages, hot dogs, white bread and bakery products, butter, fried foods, and energy drinks. The most important factors significantly associated with diet quality involved the country, place of residence, Body Mass Index (BMI), physical activity, and time spent watching TV or using a computer. Polish students were characterized by the highest level of knowledge on food and nutrition (p < 0.001). However, it was not reflected in their diet. The authorities of universities should aim to provide students with access to canteens on campuses which would offer the possibility of consumption of both affordable and healthy meals.

Till now, there are hardly any scientific approaches for recording performance-determining factors to be foung. For develop training-, but also prevention- and rehabilitation strategies, an analysis of the performance determining factors is required. The aim of the present study is to gain initial insights into condition and coordination. At this point we focus on female fire fighters in the discipline "100m obstacle course". Due to the lack of basic research, the research approaches were logically validated. By using the Purdue Pegboard Test, a 23m sprint and a backward balancing test, insights about the influence of the ability to differentiate, the dynamic ability to balance and the basic speed on the best performance in competition (PiC) are to be investigated. The PiC of the test persons of the discipline "100m obstacle course" is 20.58s ± 1.39s in average. The fastest time is 18,68s and the slowest time 23,87s. This results in a span (d) of 5.19s. When testing the motor differentiation ability, the test persons require an average of 8.70s ± 1.00s. The fastest test result is 7.29s and the slowest is 10.50s. This results in a range of 3.21s for the test results. When testing the dynamic balance ability, the test persons required an average of 11.30s ± 1.50s. The minimum of the values and thus the fastest time is 9.50s. The maximum is 14.28s. The span is 4.78s. The test persons needed an average of 4.47s ± 0.26s for running the "23m Sprint". The fastest time was 4.23s and the slowest time 5.30s. The range (d) between the fastest and slowest time is 1.07s. All test results are in a monotonous connection with the PiC of the test persons. The basic speed has the highest correlation (r=0.81). The dynamic equilibrium ability correlates with r=0.63 with PiC. There is hardly any correlation to the motor differentiation ability (r=0.18). It should be noted that in the training-, prevention- and rehabilitation process, particular attention must be paid to the creation and restoration of sprinting ability and dynamic balance ability.

T2 - The International Disabled People`s Day - XXIVth edition - Life without Pain / Healthy Children - Healthy Europe N2 - Nowadays, employment takes a central role in the society, the work-related performance diagnostics are increasingly becoming the focus of attention. In consideration of the changing professional life, by mega trends like digitization, globalization and demographic change, there is a need to adapt these procedures to future-relevant conditions. Because of that, the aim of this investigation is to fathom the importance of the work intensity for the future job market. The sample consists of 86 persons. The first group (N = 36) encloses employed person of the first job market. The second group (N = 50) exists of people of the federal program „Social Participation in the labor market“. About a cross section elevation both groups were compared with each other as well as standard value comparisons were drawn. The upraised parameters are the state of health and the work intensity on the example of lifting force (lifting ground to waist height). The health situation of these both groups showed significant differences in almost all parameters. The central result is the missing significance between the groups in the maximum force values while lifting. Also the standard value comparison of lifting did not produce a significant association to the group and less than half of all study participants reached the norm. Despite differences in the health status of the two groups, due to the approximate force values of lifting, a decreasing importance of this ability to participation in the future labor market can be noted. In conclusion, the existing work-related diagnostic procedures which still move the working intensity in the center of all assessments, should be reconsidered. However this results reflects initial tendencies, this has to be proven by further investigations.

One approach offers the (common) definition of health by the WHO, which distinguishes the physical, 2 psychological and social field. In their connection to the concept of salutogenesis by Aaron Antonovsky and the core objectives of the Health Sports by Klaus Bös and Walter Brehm health promotion programs aim the focus movement to improve the physical health of the human resource. Consequently, the resulting physical core objective focused physical performance factors, such as the mobility, endurance, strength and coordination. In the study presented here were in the first Phase by means of a multidimensional test battery several basic motor skills of more than 500 non-physically active subjects of advanced middle-aged adults in more than 20 locations detected extending oriented. This was possible on one hand the assessment of achievements for each measurement time point and on the other hand their development as a result of a movement-intensive health promotion program. In addition to the general performance of the working life requires a job-specific performance or the job-specific specialization of general skills. For the assessment of work-related performance is the Functional Assessment Instrument Capacity Evaluation (FCE) is available. With the aid of standard simulations, the FCE follows the requirements in the work environment as realistically replicate. In the second Phase (from 2014) the job-specific performance of the subjects is investigated by means of the FCE to build on the test results of the existing health care funding needs-based to expand. The increasing mental and physiosche stress in everyday life and at work leads to increased stress on the job-specific performance and health. Therefore get multidimensional health support programs, such as the program presented here, a growing importance.

Symptoms, which may not capture a classic diagnosis of depression are, for example an increased alcohol consumption, increased irritability or increased aggressiveness. This question is strengthened by a simultaneous consideration of the risk of illness and the suicide rate in relation to women. Furthermore, the unipolar depression with a prevalence of 10,4% in Germany is the leading cause of impairments of life. Subject of this study was to survey a population sample of 100 healthy physically and mentally male volunteers aged between 15 and 65 Years of age (mean age 29,64 years) in the Dresden area. Most of the respondents were laborers (46,8%), 29,2% were in training, and the remaining subjects were divided into 17,7% students and 6,3% of college graduates. The survey was conducted by means of two questionnaires in January 2012 the Gotland Scale of Male Depression for detection of depression risk and the SF-12 as a disease cross-measuring instrument of subjective health-related quality of life. Exclusion factors were already diagnosed depression, mental and neurological disorders. The response rate was 96%. The results of the Gotland Scale documented a reduced well-being with a possible risk of depression of 13,5%. In evaluation of the FS-12, the results were in the range of gender-specific physical health score was 21,9% and the mental summary scale at 24% outside of the normal range. In the comparison of the two questionnaires was a whole are obtained only a weak negative correlation slightly. This corresponds to a significantly higher risk of depression for men as it occurs clinically in appearance and suggests that an approximately 50% likelihood of underdiagnosis is. Therefore, further activities in the early detection of stress symptoms in the diagnosis of depression and burn-out should be made.

The early postoperative rehabilitation takes place usually in the hospital. Due to the enormous reduction of waiting times it has an even more important role. Currently, therefore, the process guidelines on the content and 2 orientation of therapies are optimized on the basis of current research. A starting point is the application of moderate cooling and their coupling with elements of movement therapy. In contrast to the previous application (before and after a movement of intervention), we apply cold refrigerant during the movement. The aim of this pilot study was the clinical testing of a specially developed and based on Peltier technology sensor-based cooling system, including its assessment of efficacy. This 8 very elderly patients (Age 78±2,8 years; body height 169±3,7 cm, body mass 84,9±9,4 kg, no other diseases) were divided into two groups and subjected to gait therapy. The treatment group also received a moderate cooling application of 17°C, which was permanently on the o perated knee, while walking. With those results there is intended to be a completely positive effective influence of cooling within the applied temperature range. As much drug-free pain relief and improvement of physical-motor performance (thus option of load increase and higher adaptation rate, shorten the rehabilitation time) in lack of contraindications are noted. For final representative statements, further studies are necessary due to the small sample size. There is tend to both, excellent suitability, such as a clinical need of the constructed cooling system to be discerned.

From this it can be derived that an increase of the unemployment duration leads to an increase of the illnesses. Due to different illnesses by unemployment, can develop effects on physical, psychological and social level. In order to work against this process and keep health consequences of long-term unemployment as small as possible (not least for reasons of the reintegration into the job market), the health promotion stands increasingly in the focus. A goal of the following study was to find out the effects of a strength-perseveranceoriented back training in regard to physical, psychological and social level. 13 longterm unemployed women (age 56.08 ± 3.17 years) were examined and trained 5 weeks. The state of health and the movement behavior was assessed with an anamnesis. The admission of the objective health parameters was carried out by the determination of the anthropometrics values by means of BIA balance, as well as by the determination of the strength impact from belly and back muscles using Total Trunk. The subjective health parameters were seized over a sensibility to pain scale and a questionnaire to the general habitual well-being. On this basis the obtained results, regarding the anthropometric values and the sensibility to pain, there could not be determined significant changes, but emphasized positive tendencies. Significant changes showed up with some parameters of the general habitual wellbeing (Well-Being-Score, psychological miss-being), as well as with the strength impact, which took the main meaning regarding the training program. Therefore it can be said that a 5-week strength-perseverance-oriented back training, improve on the one hand to the physical health, accompanies in view to the strength perseverance ability of belly and back muscules and on the other hand the psychological health, by a significant decrease of the psychological miss-being. Due to the open questions resulting from it further investigations are necessary, in order to confirm the force of expression of the results.

This kind of injury is mainly based on intrinsic factors such as structural overload which accounts for 17% of all moderate and severe competition injuries. Following knee and ankle joint, hamstrings are the third most common structure to suffer from injuries. As previous reviews show, eccentric training, such as the Nordic Hamstring Exercise (NHE), can reduce hamstring injuries. However, in those reviews other sports in addition to soccer were also examined in one sample. Purpose: The aim of this review is to synthesize the best available evidence on the effectiveness of the NHE as an intervention in the prevention of hamstring injuries in soccer players. Methods: The search for the studies was done in the PubMed, PEDro, Cochrane Library and EB-SCO databases. There was no language or time restrictions. Titles, abstracts and full texts of the respective studies were verified by two independent reviewers and selected using the inclusion criteria. In addition, critical evaluation tools were used to assess the methodological qualities of the respective studies followed by data extraction in JBI SUMARI. Meta-analysis was performed. Results: Four studies were included in this systematic review. Three studies compared NHE as an intervention with conventional football training and one study conducted hamstring curls as a control intervention. The duration of the studies ranged from 2.5 to 6.75 months, with a total of 28312 NHE sessions and 25918 training sessions in the control groups. The intervention groups showed a total of 30 hamstring injuries and the control groups developed a total of 80 injuries. A sample of 1780 soccer players were examined, 909 in the intervention groups and 871 in the control groups. The overall mean odds' ratio was significantly below one (95% CI, P= 0.335). The probability of suffering a hamstring injury was between 0.22 and 0.53 times lower in the intervention group than in the control group. The test for heterogeneity showed no significance (I² = 9). Conclusion(s): The NHE can help to reduce hamstring injuries in football players. However, due to the small number of studies included, the result should be interpreted with caution and more clinical studies should be conducted in the future. Implications: Looking at the total number of days lost per player in a season, professional football has a total of approximately 25,900 days lost, which is three times more than in other sports. Every injury is associated with lost time and additional costs. This review aimed to examine a cost-efficient exercise for its preventive effect. To counteract injuries in soccer and the factors associated with them,. showing chances to reach those goals.
