BackgroundDuring the COVID-19 pandemic, non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) such as social distancing, lockdowns and enhanced hygiene led to a decrease in respiratory pathogens. However, as NPIs were relaxed, a resurgence in several respiratory pathogens was observed including one local Chlamydia pneumoniae outbreak in Switzerland, prompting the need for a better understanding of C. pneumoniae epidemiology.AimTo assess temporal and geographical variations in C. pneumoniae detection before, during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.MethodsData on C. pneumoniae PCR detection ratios (number of positive tests/ total number of tests) across pre-pandemic (2018-2019), pandemic (2020-2022) and post-pandemic (2023) periods were collected via a global survey disseminated through various professional networks.ResultsC. pneumoniae detection ratios were analysed across 28 sites (27 in Europe, one in Taiwan) in 2023 (Dataset A, n = 172,223 tests) and 20 sites from 2018 to 2023 (Dataset B, n = 693,106 tests). Twenty-seven sites were laboratories (hospital or clinical) and one a surveillance system (Denmark). A significant decrease in detection ratios was observed during the pandemic period (from 1.05% to 0.23%, p < 0.001). In 2023, detection ratios increased to 0.28% (p < 0.002). Notable regional variations were found, with statistically significant increases in detection ratios at six sites located in Switzerland and Slovenia, where ratios ranged from 0.52% to 3.25%.DiscussionThe study highlights how NPIs influenced C. pneumoniae epidemiology, with reduced detection during the pandemic and partial resurgence afterwards. Regional variations suggest differing NPI impacts and underscore the need for continued surveillance.

BackgroundOn 29 January 2024, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control distributed an alert about a metronidazole-resistant Clostridioides difficile outbreak of PCR ribotype (RT) 955 in England.AimWe aimed to investigate the presence of RT955 in Czech, Slovak and Polish C. difficile isolates and evaluate different culture media for detecting its metronidazole resistance.MethodsIsolates with binary toxin genes identified as 'unknown' by the WEBRIBO PCR ribotyping database up to 2023 were re-analysed after adding the RT955 profile to the database. The RT955 isolates were characterised by whole genome sequencing and tested for susceptibility to 15 antimicrobials.ResultsWe did not find RT955 in Czech (n = 6,661, 2012-2023) and Slovak (n = 776, 2015-2023) isolates, but identified 13 RT955 cases (n = 303, 2021-2023) in three hospitals in Poland. By whole genome multilocus sequence typing, 10 isolates clustered into one clonal complex including a sequence of United Kingdom strain ERR12670107, and shared similar antimicrobial resistance genes/mutations. All 13 isolates were resistant to ciprofloxacin/moxifloxacin, erythromycin/clindamycin and ceftazidime. All isolates had a mutation in the nimB gene promoter and in NimB (Tyr130Ser and Leu155Ile). The metronidazole resistance was detected in all isolates using brain-heart-infusion agar supplemented with haemin and Chocolate agar. Results were discrepant with the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing-recommended Fastidious anaerobe agar and Brucella blood agar.ConclusionThe identification of clonally related haem-dependent metronidazole-resistant C. difficile RT955 in multiple hospitals indicates a need for prospective surveillance to estimate its prevalence in Europe.

OBJECTIVE: To ensure wider use of the internationally recommended Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) of sensorimotor function for people with stroke, official translations of the scale are needed. This study aimed to perform a translation and cross-cultural adaptation/validation of the FMA into the Czech language. DESIGN: Translation and cross-cultural adaptation/validation. SUBJECTS/PATIENTS: Five clinical experts and 1 external expert participated as reviewers; 11 individuals with stroke in the early subacute phase were included in the pilot testing. METHODS: A standardized process using forward-backward translations, expert panel reviews, and pilot testing between and within the raters (inter- and intra-rater reliability) were employed to ensure conceptual, semantic, and operational validity of the new Czech FMA. Agreement between raters was assessed in 11 individuals with stroke on 2 consecutive days at University Hospital Olomouc by using Svensson's rank-based statistics. RESULTS: Percentage of agreement between and within raters ranged between 70-100% and 55-100%, respectively. Systematic disagreements, found in 7 out of 96 FMA items, were discussed and revised in the final version. CONCLUSION: The Czech FMA offers a more unified and standardized assessment of sensorimotor impairment in clinical and research settings. This will improve stroke rehabilitation care and allow for wider international collaboration.

INTRODUCTION: PAdverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are associated with an increased risk of mental health issues in general, but their relationship with panic disorder (PD) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) has received less attention compared to borderline personality disorder (BPD). Dissociative experiences are significant predictors of increased symptoms, reduced treatment adherence, and poor prognosis in several psychiatric conditions, including PD, OCD, and BPD; still, their impact remains underexplored. This part of the study focuses on the overall efficiency of psychotherapeutic programs on treatment-resistant patients diagnosed with PD, OCD, and BPD (or combined), as well as the relationship between ACEs, dissociation rates, and treatment results. METHOD: The study was conducted under standard conditions in an inpatient psychotherapy unit that specialized in anxiety, affective disorders, and personality disorders. Patients were hospitalized for 6 weeks and treated with a comprehensive CBT program and pharmacotherapy. The study included patients diagnosed with PD, OCD, or BPD (or combined). Two independent psychiatrists confirmed the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients were assessed using the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II), Clinical Global Impression Scale - Severity (CGI-S), Dissociative Experience Scale (DES), and Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ-SF). RESULTS: A total of 349 out of 357 patients completed the study. The average age of patients was 33.33 ± 11.59 years. After the 6 week treatment, there was a statistically significant decrease in mean scores across all assessed scales. Changes in any scale during treatment did not correlate with the total CTQ-SF score or sub-scores. The relative change in CGI-S showed a statistically significant negative correlation with the total dissociation score on the DES scale at the beginning of treatment but not with pathological dissociation assessed by the DES-T questionnaire. Statistically significant decreases in mean CGI-S scores were observed in patients with a single diagnosis of PD, OCD, and BPD. Among comorbid groups, significant changes were observed only in patients with comorbid OCD and BPD. No statistically significant change in mean BDI-II scores was observed in patients with comorbid PD and OCD or comorbid OCD and BPD. CONCLUSIONS: Our analysis showed that treatment led to a significant decrease in the severity of depressive symptoms assessed by BDI-II and anxiety symptoms assessed by BAI in patients with PD, OCD, and BPD. This decrease was not statistically significant in patients with comorbid disorders, suggesting that the presence of multiple diagnoses may affect treatment efficacy. ACEs did not correlate to treatment results, but dissociation rates were linked with poorer treatment outcomes.

INTRODUCTION: Panic disorder (PD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and borderline personality disorder (BPD) are associated with various psychosocial factors that may influence their onset and psychopathology. Dissociation encompasses a wide range of manifestations, from benign experiences to severe mental health issues. Research comparing childhood trauma and dissociation, general psychopathology, and the onset of the disorder among patients with PD, OCD, and BPD has not yet been published. RESULTS: The severity of dissociative symptoms negatively correlated with the onset of the disorder, whereas it positively correlated with the disorder's overall severity and general symptomatology. Patients with more severe childhood trauma had an earlier onset of the disorder and more severe depressive and dissociative symptoms. They rated higher on the overall severity of the disorder. Physical abuse and neglect were associated with more severe PD, OCD, and BPD. Patients with BPD had higher levels of dissociation than those with PD or OCD. BPD was also connected with more severe childhood trauma than PD and OCD patients. Comorbidity exacerbated the severity of the psychiatric disorders. CONCLUSIONS: Childhood trauma and dissociation play a significant role in anxiety and depressive symptoms in patients with PD, OCD, and BPD.

OBJECTIVES: Malignant tumors of the nasopharynx make up 3% of malignancies in the ENT area. The most common nasopharyngeal malignancy is nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), followed by lymphomas. Other nasopharyngeal tumors are very rare. In this study, we aimed to assess the age distribution and behavior of the primary nasopharyngeal malignancies, NPC, and lymphoma over a ten-year period in a tertiary hospital patient group. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 48 patients participated in this retrospective monocentric study. The group consisted of 13 females (27.1%) and 35 males (72.9%) diagnosed with nasopharyngeal malignancy and treated between 2012 and 2022. The patients' ages ranged from 14 to 83 years, with a mean age of 57.5 and a median of 55 years. The variables monitored in the study were histology, symptoms (such as nasal obstruction, Eustachian tube function, presence of glue ear, neck mass, weight loss), smoking status, TNM classification, and survival. RESULTS: In NPC grading and staging, two statistically significant variables were found to be associated with survival: distant metastases (p < 0.0001) and stage of the process (p = 0.0153). We did not find age and gender to be significant variables for lymphomas (p = 0.4066; p = 0.1797, respectively) or for NPC (p = 0.8630; p = 0.0573, respectively). Neither did we find any significant cut-off levels. In our analysis of therapy, we discovered that the use of chemoradiotherapy and palliative care in the NPC group is statistically significantly connected with disease-specific survival (p = 0.0094; p = 0.0004). This, however, was not the case in the lymphoma group. For the NPC group, we found statistically significant symptoms only in weight loss (p = 0.0081) and smoking (p = 0.0483). CONCLUSION: Our research confirmed that nasopharyngeal tumors are rare, with the most common type being nasopharyngeal carcinoma. In our patient group, 76.9% of cases involved nasopharyngeal cancer, which was five times more common in men than in women, and typically occurred in individuals over the age of 50. Lymphomas and other tumors accounted for less than a quarter of the cases. The overall five-year survival rate for nasopharyngeal malignancies in our group was 42.3%. We also observed an interesting gender perspective: 75% of women (6 women) survived for five years, whereas 72.2% of men died within five years of diagnosis.

OBJECTIVES: To determine whether selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of genes encoding proteins responsible for the activation, transport, or metabolism of dabigatran and apixaban might be associated with a risk of gastrointestinal bleeding in a cohort of adult patients treated with these drugs. No previous study has focused specifically on the association with gastrointestinal bleeding. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ninety-one patients treated with dabigatran or apixaban were genotyped for selected polymorphisms. The following polymorphisms were studied: ABCB1 gene rs1045642, rs4148738, rs1128503 and rs2032582; CES1 gene rs2244613, rs8192935 and rs2244614; and SULT1A1 gene rs9282861 and SULT1A2 gene rs1136703. Two groups divided by particular drugs and genotypes were compared in terms of the presence (bleeding group) or absence (nonbleeding group) of gastrointestinal bleeding. The genotype distribution was expressed via dominant and recessive models. RESULTS: In patients treated either with dabigatran or with apixaban, no evidence was found to support the association of gastrointestinal bleeding with any genotype for any of the studied SNPs. CONCLUSION: In both dabigatran- and apixaban-treated patients, no associations between the selected polymorphisms and gastrointestinal bleeding risk were found, however the results should be interpreted with caution because of the small cohort size.

Drift is a phenomenon that can occur in cognitive-behavioral supervision, where core components of supervision are omitted, avoided, or deprioritized. This narrative review explores the signs, reasons, and impact of supervisory drift at the experiential, cognitive, and emotional levels for both the supervisor and the supervisee. Additionally, the article presents potential solutions for preventing and addressing supervisory drift, such as staying on track, anticipating problems before they arise, adapting supervision to the supervisee's needs, using active supervision methods to understand drift better, engaging in Supervision of Supervision (SoS), and using alliance measures. Through the use of case vignettes, we illustrate the potential solutions. We aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of supervisory drift and offer practical strategies for its prevention and management.

BACKGROUND: An in-depth study of neurological symptoms and complications of influenza in elderly patients. This population group is more susceptible to complications of the disease and these complications are more likely to end in death. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of patient data was performed. All patients aged 65 years and older were included in the study. The study period was from the 1st of January , 2018 to 31st of December, 2021. All symptoms and complications of influenza were analyzed. Especially neurological and general symptoms were analyzed. Data were extracted from the complete medical records of the patients. RESULTS: The most common symptoms of influenza in the elderly were fever in 218 cases (83.52%), cough in 189 patients (72.41%), general weakness in 182 (69.73%) and fatigue in 166 patients (63.6%). Myalgias were experienced by 106 patients (40.61%) and arthralgias by 101 patients (38.7%). Headache occurred in only 21 patients (8.06%). Encephalopathy was observed in 7 elderly patients (2.68%) during hospitalization. Influenza encephalitis was noted in 2 cases. CONCLUSION: The most common neurological symptoms of influenza in more than half of the elderly are general weakness and increased fatigue. Myalgias are common, headache less often. Nausea is not uncommon. Of the complications, encephalopathy is the most common. Cases of influenza encephalitis have also been reported. We have not encountered a stroke. Concerning other complications, bacterial pneumonia was the most common.

BACKGROUND: Telerehabilitation is a practical option for individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) to engage in sustained physical activity without -visiting a rehabilitation facility. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the feasibility, effectiveness, safety, and adherence of exercise-based telerehabilitation as compared with usual care for MS patients. METHODS: A comprehensive literature search adhering to PRISMA guidelines was conducted, focusing on studies published in English since 2000. The systematic review protocol was registered in PROSPERO. The selection process involved strict criteria, including studies focusing on people with MS, telerehabilitation centred on regular exercise, a control group receiving usual care, valid exercise testing, and adherence to randomized controlled trial principles. Methodological quality was assessed using the TESTEX tool, ensuring rigour in study design and reporting. RESULTS: Among the 281 records screened, 10 studies met the criteria. Telerehabilitation interventions varied in format and outcomes were assessed using diverse exercise tests and questionnaires. Despite variations, the studies collectively demonstrated promising feasibility and safety, with minimal withdrawals and minor adverse events. Effectiveness varied, with 5 out of 10 studies showing significant improvements in the intervention group. Adherence rates ranged from 38% to 100%. CONCLUSION: In most of the assessed aspects, telerehabilitation is comparable to regular centre-based rehabilitation.
