Цель работы - определение роли поведенческих рисков в увеличении биологического возраста (БВ). На основе полученных данных для 499 работников по методике В. П. Войтенко была построена новая формула для расчета БВ. Установлено, что максимальные значения разности между БВ и должным биологическим возрастом (ДБВ) были у работников с самым низким уровнем физической активности (+0,54±0,3 года). Также в данной группе наблюдали максимальное количество жалоб на состояние здоровья. При увеличении ИМТ на 1 кг/м, разность БВ и ДБВ увеличивается в среднем на 0,16 года. Проведен двухфакторный дисперсионный анализ для выяснения совместного действия поведенческих рисков на величину БВ-ДБВ. При максимальном уровне курения и низкой физической активности отмечены самые высокие значения разницы между БВ и ДБВ. The purpose of the study is to determine the role of behavioral risks in increasing biological age indicators. A new formula for calculating the biological age (BA) was plotted, based on the data obtained for 499 employees using the V. P. Voytenko’s method. It was found, that the maximum difference between biological and chronological (CA) ages are observed in workers with the lowest level of physical activity (0,54±0,3 years). In addition, there is a maximum number of health complaints in this group. With an increase in BMI by one kg/m, the difference between biological and chronological ages grow by 0,16 of the year. We conducted a two-factor analysis of variance in order to figure out the combined effect of behavioral risks on the BA-CA value. At the maximum level of smoking and the lowest level of physical activity, the highest difference values between BA and CA are observed.

Use of a method of share tendencies in the analysis time of some R-R intervals of the electrocardiogram after performance of 20 knee-bends and after 1 minute of restoration has allowed to establish a role of the centers of vegetative nervous system in restoration of a rhythm of heart at 4-th level of dynamic hierarchy. After 20-ти knee-bends and through 1 minutes of restoration the maximum vegetative centers of the central contour dominate. In interaction of the central and independent contours each center entering into them is characterized with distinctive features of dynamics which are shown in an increasing role of the centers of an independent contour after 1 minute of restoration.

Prevention Of Cardiovascular Disease

In Slovenia, the role of general practitioners in counselling physical activity for prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is well recognized. The role of general practitioners in advising healthy lifestyle for individuals who are at risk of developing CVD is formally defined in the National Program for Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease, which has been running since 2001. Part of the program is counselling on healthy lifestyle including physical activity, performed in all health centres across the country. First a screening and medical examination is performed. In case of higher risk for CVD (>20%) the physician should give advice on the particular risk factor and direct patients to health-education centres, where they can participate in healthy lifestyle workshops lead by health professionals. Physicians and other health professionals who are involved in the implementation of prevention activities within the program need knowledge and skills that are crucial for successful counselling on healthy lifestyle. The educational program “basic education in health promotion and prevention of chronic non-communicable diseases in primary health care/family medicine” consists of two parts. The first part of the training is open to all health professionals working within the program. The second part is intended for health professionals working in health-education workshops. In the last few years a new family practice model has been introduced and disseminated. Some duties of the family physician, including health promotion and counselling, are being transferred to graduate nurses who become part of the family practice team. This new division of work undoubtedly brings many advantages, both in terms of the work organization, and of high-quality patient care. Nevertheless preventive action cannot be fully passed on to graduate nurses. Careful planning and education are needed to ensure a comprehensive approach in healthy life style counselling.

Activity Recommendations

Research on physical activity (PA) in different educational settings could elucidate which interventions promote a healthy school lifestyle in early childhood education (ECE). The aims of this study were: (a) to analyse the PA levels of preschoolers during school hours, as well as the rate of compliance with specific recommendations on total PA (TPA) and moderate-vigorous PA (MVPA); (b) to examine the role of structured movement sessions and recess time in the MVPA levels during school hours; (c) to evaluate the sociodemographic correlates of preschoolers and the school environment on MVPA behaviour during school hours. PA was evaluated with Actigraph accelerometers. Our main findings were that: (a) preschoolers engaged in very little TPA and MVPA during school hours; (b) children showed significantly higher MVPA levels on days with versus without structured movement sessions, and the contribution of the structured sessions to MVPA was significantly higher than that of recess time; (c) gender and age were associated with PA, and a high density of young children on the playground was associated with high levels of vigorous PA, whereas in the classroom, high density was associated with more sedentary behaviour. Structured PA could reduce the gap in achieving international recommendations.
