The eating habits of students differ significantly from those recommended by health practitioners. 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.
Zusammenfassung. Mit dem Physical Self-Description Questionnaire Short (PSDQ-S) von Marsh, Martin und Jackson (2010) liegt eine auf 40 Items gekürzte validierte Version des Physical Self-Description Questionnaire von Marsh, Richards, Johnson, Roche und Tremayne (1994) vor, die bereits in mehrere Sprachen übersetzt ist. Die vorliegende Studie evaluierte den deutschsprachigen PSDQ-S anhand von 402 Probanden im frühen und späten Erwachsenenalter. Im Ergebnis lassen die Analyse der Reliabilität und Validität sowie der Vergleich mit den Befunden von Marsh et al. (2010), Stiller und Alfermann (2007) sowie weiterer übersetzter und validierter PSDQ-S-Versionen die Verwendung der deutschsprachigen Kurzform empfehlen. Ebenso wie die Originalversion ist sie für männliche und weibliche Personen, sowie für die Altersgruppen des frühen und späten Erwachsenenalters geeignet. Für alle vier Gruppen besteht eine äquivalente Faktorstruktur.
Arthritis is an illness, which is usually frequently due to degenerative or traumatic causes and can in almost all joints of the human body occur. Joints frequently concerned are for example the hip, knee and shoulder joint. Triggering factors are apart from immobilization also overload and micro traumas. Thus it does not surprise that in the individual kinds of sport some joints are affected by arthritis more frequently than others.
The promotion of the public health represents an important task of the popular sport. In order to be able to manage this task fairly, it is compellingly necessary to analyze the factors taking influence on the activity ratio. The frequent occurrence of pain affects the activity ratio negatively. The popular sport sees itself with an increasing
obsolescence of the population and all the same with older sportsman and club members confronted. Therefore individual kinds of sport must, in order to be arranged attractive for older sportsmen it, be examined on their pain and arthritis of promoting elements. These are to be reduced then and be supplemented by jointcareful exercise and training programs, which make a pain reduced sport exercising possible. Since there are senior groups in many associations, these programs are relevant not only for the individual sportsman to be implement but wide range of importance. Here a close co-operation of coaches and physiotherapists is in demand, in order to become fair to the complex requirements on such a training.
A Brandenburgian Judoka, who trains active for over fifty years, suffers for many years under arthritis in the hip joint. By the implementation of some physical therapy relevant training contents and a regular goal agreement, is it possible to merge the sportsman actively, despite hip joint total endoprosthesis, into the training happening.
To be able to make a representative statement on the relevance of the physical therapy support in the club sport, further investigations are necessary.
The concept of health has several possible definitions. 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.
Recent studies of the "male depression" deal among other things with the question of whether men classic depression symptoms are compensated or covered by masked stress symptoms. 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.
One of the most commonly performed orthopedic and trauma surgical intervention is, beneath the joint arthroscopic intervention and the implantation of hip prostheses, the endoprosthetic knee replacement. 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.
In the last 20 years it could be occupied at numerous studies and researches that unemployed persons exhibit a significantly worse state of health compared with working persons. 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.
