Ectopic pregnancy (EP) - acute pathology, which, despite of all achievements of modern gynecology, represents direct threat to woman life. The purpose of research was the development and optimization of diagnostic and treatment algorithms for EP. The clinical application of the developed algorithms has allowed to reduce time authentically from patients hospitalization to operation on the average 5 fold, considerably increase a share of organ-saving operations, to reduce negative influence of operations on Health-Related- Quality-of-Life of patients.

Purpose: To predicate the way in which families incorporate the work of managing a child with thalassemia within family life and its outcomes. Methods: A correlational design with a structural equation modeling (SEM) approach was used. A total of 309 parents of children with thalassemia from 4 tertiary care hospitals in Thailand completed our questionnaires. Results: Family life difficulties had a negative influence on the child’s health-related quality of life (HRQOL) (b = -2.23, p < 0.05) and family functioning (b = -0.27, p < 0.05), whereas the child’s daily life (b = 5.06, p < 0.05) and condition management ability (b = -1.86, p < 0.05) had a negative influence on the child’s HRQOL. In the final model, 3 variables including the child’s daily life, condition management ability, and family life difficulty could explain 33 % of variance in the child’s HRQOL (R2 = 0.33). This model showed that only family life difficulty could explain 2 % of variance of family functioning (R2 = 0.02). Conclusions: The study suggests that nurses should design interventions to support families in managing their child’s conditions in order to achieve a good child and family outcomes.

Reduced physical activity (PA) and prolonged screen time (ST) negatively influence health-related quality of life (HRQoL), a protective factor against illness and mortality. Studies addressing the relationship between PA, ST, and mental health in youth are scarce, especially in times with high mental health burdens like the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this examination was to investigate whether PA, ST, and HRQoL before COVID-19 predict PA, ST, and HRQoL during the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants from the Motorik-Modul Study (MoMo; N = 1711; Mage = 10.36 (SD = 4.04) years, female = 49.8%; healthy weight = 76.8%) self-reported their PA and ST as well as HRQoL both before and during COVID-19. Relationships of all variables, from before to during COVID-19, were investigated through a path prediction model. Results showed all variables during COVID-19 were predicted by the respective levels before COVID-19, independent of gender and age. Cross-lags revealed a negative influence of before COVID-19 ST on during COVID-19 PA. HRQoL before COVID-19 was positively associated with during COVID-19 PA in children younger than 10 years and females, but not in adolescents and boys. As age- and gender-independent negative influence of before COVID-19 ST on during COVID-19 PA has been detected, health policy may be advised to focus on a general reduction in ST instead of PA enhancement to ensure high PA levels.
