Research investigating the association between reproductive health and diet has predominantly focused on the antenatal and prenatal periods, as well as childbirth in women, and semen quality in men. There is a limited amount of research addressing female fertility assessed as ovarian reserve in relation to diet. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the association between dietary patterns and the parameters of ovarian reserve, such as antral follicle count (AFC), anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and estradiol (E2) - predictors of reproductive health in women of childbearing age.

Cognitive dysfunction is part of the clinical picture of stroke. Most of the executive dysfunctions are diagnosed in the early stage of rehabilitation, a few weeks after the vascular incident. Coexistence of executive dysfunctions with other disorders in stroke patients may hinder patient's functions, slow down the rehabilitation process, and disrupt self-awareness, interpersonal communication, and professional activity in everyday life.

Team or group cohesion is a multifaceted construct with a variety of definitions and measurement instruments. However, most of these measures are context and group-specific and/or time-consuming.

Exposure to pyrethroids, a widely used agricultural, forestry, and household insecticide, is a major public health concern due to its potential health effects on children. The aim of this review was to summarize the current knowledge of the effects of prenatal exposure to pyrethroids on the course and outcome of pregnancy, health status, and neurobehavioural development of children. A systematic and comprehensive search of the PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases was conducted during January-February 2024. The review included original articles published in peerreviewed English-language journals since 2015. Based on keywords, 198 studies were identified and screened for eligibility. Ultimately, the review analyzed 25 articles including 16 that assessed the effects of prenatal exposure to pyrethroids on children's neurobehavioural development, 3 studies that assessed the effects on the course and outcome of pregnancy, and further 3 focused on respiratory disease. In addition, 1 study analyzed the development of obesity and 2 studies examined the effects on children's growth, weight and body composition in early childhood. In conclusion, there is considerable uncertainty about the adverse effects of prenatal exposure to pyrethroids on children's health. The strongest evidence has been reported for neurobehavioural development although results are also inconsistent. Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms of action and health effects of pyrethroids in susceptible populations. Int J Occup Med Environ Health. 2024;37(4):381-402.

Job strain in dentistry makes the profession highly susceptible to occupational burnout. People with high sensory processing sensitivity (SPS) perceive workplace as more stressful and more demanding. Emotional intelligence (EI) is both a trait and an ability, which helps individuals adapt to the environment and reduces burnout. This study examines the relationship between SPS and burnout among Polish dentists and whether EI may be a protective factor against burnout in a group of highly sensitive dentists.

The global virtual reality (VR) market is growing surprisingly fast. As VR applications continue to expand into various areas of life, attention is being paid to issues related to user well-being. The danger lurking for users is the occurrence of simulator sickness and artificial reality sickness, collectively referred to as sensory conflict. As early as the 1950s, an attempt was made to study simulator sickness. Unfavorable psychophysical symptoms occurred in pilots using the first flight simulators. With the development of technology, the graphic and simulation capabilities of the various types of simulators are increasing. Easier access to simulators using first person view (FPV) and thus more outstanding research capabilities allow new studies related to the incidence of this disease to compare symptoms occurring during simulator sessions with those occurring during realworld endeavors. The primary purpose of the review is to bring together the latest reports on different types of sensory conflict concerning factors that are symptomatic in prediction and diagnosis. Heart rate, brain activity, stomach activity, and skin conductance seem to be the most adequate, objective indicators of subjects' susceptibility to this phenomenon. In addition, it is intended to systematize concepts related to sensory conflict in the broadest sense. Int J Occup Med Environ Health. 2024;37(5).

Both physical and psychosocial risk factors contributing to musculoskeletal disorders occur in the professional nursing group, and previous literature suggested that their interaction may increase the risk of musculoskeletal pain among nurses. The aim of the study was to examine perceived workload and stress as well as physical findings and musculoskeletal complaints in nurses.

This article aims to present the overview of the situation during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic about issues concerning the prevalence of mental disorders such as depression, anxiety, rate of suicide attempts, and long COVID (LC) infections in the general population during COVID-19 pandemic. Analysis of the literature (in English, Polish and Spanish language) on topics related to COVID-19, mental disorders (suicide attempts, depression, anxiety) and LC infection published during the 4 years (2020-2023) was done using Pubmed and PubMed Central search engine. Keywords such as "COVID-19," "mental disorders," "long COVID infection," "depression," "anxiety," "suicide attempts" were used during the search. The conduct of this review/comment followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) protocol, which corresponds to a checklist of 27 items designed to facilitate the development and reporting of a robust protocol for systematic reviews or meta-analyses. Overall 35 studies were selected and analyzed in the review on topics: including among others LC (14 studies), suicide attempts (7 studies), mental disorders (depression, anxiety) (14 studies). The main issues raised in the articles were: higher risk of LC symptoms in women, fatigue and brain fog listed as frequently encountered patient's complaints together with anxiety, depression, loneliness, especially in younger age groups and in women. Issues regarding LC, mental disorders and suicide attempts requires further research as the results vary in different countries. Int J Occup Med Environ Health. 2024;37(3):360-80.

Green jobs are to be understood as those jobs directly associated with specific sustainability issues and activities related to the efficiency, quality and innovation of goods and services offered, from an eco-sustainability perspective. The objective of the research was to fill knowledge gaps of new and emerging environmental and occupational risks related to sustainable activities and to understand the impact these might have on workers' psychological and physical well-being. A selection of several scientific articles and a critical analysis of the selected articles was carried out from the perspective of defining the concept of "emerging occupational risks in green jobs," using different keywords in the title or abstract as search criteria. Emerging occupational risks, most prevalent in the green sector are those determined by the rapid introduction of new technologies, new materials, new processes and work organizations. In order to be able to improve prevention and protection at work, it is necessary to act on a more careful and adequate risk assessment, the definition of new professional figures expert in green issues, the expansion of research and development of scientific knowledge, and the improvement of ergonomic aspects.
