[The hygienic assessment of the organization of the vocational study practice of students training for the job of power-generating unit operator].

The study is carried out with schoolchildren from the educative and industrial complex of energetics (two classes with total 60 students) at the age of 17-18, from the Technical College of Energetics "V. Pick"--Sofia. They are trained for the profession "operator on power aggregates". The investigation is performed during the educative and industrial practice of the students in the Heat Power Station "Tr. Kostov" and the Heat Power Station "Sofia", as well as in the training shop of the technical college. Studies are made on: the functional adaptation of the organism through the reactivity of the CNS, some analysers, the cardiovascular system and the sympathetic-adrenal system, haemopoiesis; the factors of the educative and industrial environment; working/professional maturity of the students; health status of the adolescents. The results of the examination show low effectiveness of the education and industrial training in the Heat power station or low daily and annual exposure, leading to monotony, hypodynamia especially when working in second shift. It is recommended the education and industrial practice in the secondary special schools and technical colleges to be carried out in training shops, educative and industrial workshops and at standardization of the environmental factors and organization of rational regime of work and rest.

Relation between somatic development and some environmental factors in the male population of vocational mining schools in the Lublin Coal Basin.

Somatic development of a child, although genetically determined, depends also on the influence of biogeographic and socio-economic factors of the environment. The effects of these factors popular in the literature are seen in the differences of somatic development of children brought up in urban and rural environments. In comparison with urban population, country children are characterized by lower growth and body mass, delayed manifestation of sexual maturity, greater amount of incorrect posture features, worse state of nutrition and lower index of mental development. The differences in somatic development of children were also found while comparing the size of agglomeration and socio-professional factors determining parents' level of education and financial situation of the family. One could also observe the improvement of somatic development of children living in regions of quick and intensive urbanization and industrialization.

Cardiovascular diseases risk factors in male population from mining vocational schools of the Lublin Coal Basin.

Contrary to certain industrial countries which secure an impressive decrease in coronary heart mortality, Poland has had, especially in the last decade, the significant increase of morbidity and mortality caused by cardiovascular diseases. Although this phenomenon concerns mainly the middle-age mean groups, special care for the whole population should be undertaken. The successful way to decrease the death rate and morbidity attributed to coronary heart disease (CHD) are the long-term prevention programs as for example Multiple Risk Factor Intervention Trial, Belgian Heart Disease Prevention Project, Lipid Research Clinics Coronary Primary Prevention Trial and others. Because there is some evidence that certain risk factors occur also among children, it seems that the effectiveness and efficacy of such prevention programs may be increased when started in the young population.

Evaluation of lung function in male population from vocational mining schools of the Lublin Coal Basin.

Occupational exposure to dust and other environmental factors in coal miners may impair the lung function of workers. Besides the coal workers' pneumoconiosis, the inhaled dust may cause decreased ventilatory capacity as a due to chronic bronchitis (9, 13). The same diseases, especially chronic bronchitis, are common in general population and may arise not only from occupational reasons (11, 12). The involvement of the genetic factors, environmental pollutions and cigarette smoking should be considered.
