Background and Objectives: The maternal preference of mode of delivery is an important problem in respect of patient’s autonomy and shared decision-making. The objective of the study was to obtain information about women’s preferences of the mode of delivery and knowledge about the cesarean section and its’ consequences. Materials and Methods: The study was based on a survey filled in by 1175 women in 2010 and 1033 women in 2020. Respondents were asked about their preference of mode of delivery, possible factors influencing their decision and their knowledge about risks and benefits of cesarean section. Results: There was a significant increase in the rate of women who declared cesarean section as their preferred mode of delivery, from 43.97% in 2010 to 56.03% in 2020 (p < 0.05). In 2010 26.51% of women thought that choice of mode of delivery should be their autonomic decision, 46.36% preferred decision-sharing with their obstetrician, 25.64% thought that cesarean section should be performed for medical indications only (respectively 34.86%, 44.45% and 19.38% in 2020). Conclusions: There has been a significant increase in the rate of Polish women who prefer cesarean delivery over the last decade, as well as in the rate of women who consider the mode of delivery as their autonomic decision.

Tracy and Doremus have demonstrated chemical bonding between bone and hydroxylapatite with transmission electron microscopy. Now researchers ponder how to improve upon this bond in turn improving the life expectancy and biocompatibility of implantable orthopedic devices.This report focuses on a study of the- chemical influences on the interfacial integrity and strength. Pure hydroxylapatite (HAP), magnesium doped HAP, strontium doped HAP, bioglass and medical grade titanium cylinders were implanted into the tibial cortices of New Zealand white rabbits. After 12 weeks, the implants were retrieved for a scanning electron microscopy study coupled with energy dispersive spectroscopy.Following sacrifice and careful retrieval, the samples were dehydrated through a graduated series starting with 50% ethanol and continuing through 60, 70, 80, 90, 95, and 100% ethanol over a period of two days. The samples were embedded in LR White. Again a graduated series was used with solutions of 50, 75 and 100% LR White diluted in ethanol.

Normal Adults

Electrodermal and electroencephalic responsivity to sound and to light was studied in 96 normal-hearing adults in three separate sessions. The subjects were subdivided into equal groups of white men, white women, colored men, and colored women. A 1 000 cps pure tone was the conditioned stimulus in two sessions and white light was used in a third session. Heat was the unconditioned stimulus in all sessions. Previously, an inverse relation had been found in white men between the prominence of alpha rhythm in the EEG and the ease with which electrodermal responses could be elicited. This relation did not hold true for white women. The main purpose of the present study was to answer the following questions: (1) are the previous findings on white subjects applicable to colored subjects? (2) are subjects who are most (or least) responsive electrophysiologically on one day equally responsive (or unresponsive) on another day? and (3) are subjects who are most (or least) responsive to sound equally responsive (or unresponsive) to light? In general, each question was answered affirmatively. Other factors influencing responsivity were also studied.

Placebo Model

Research in recent years, especially in the analgesic field, has intensively studied the placebo effect and its mechanisms. It has been shown that physical complaints can be efficiently reduced via learning and cognitive processes (conditioning and expectancies). However, despite evidence demonstrating a large variety of physiological similarities between pain and itch, the possible transfer of the analgesic placebo model to itch has not yet been widely discussed in research. This review therefore aims at highlighting potential transfers of placebo mechanisms to itch processes by demonstrating the therapeutic issues in pharmacological treatments for pruritus on a physiological basis and by discussing the impact of psychological mechanisms and psychological factors influencing itch sensations.
