Forced begging of children in paris
Get PDFTrgovina z ljudmi je sodobna oblika suženjstva, ki vključuje novačenje, prevoz, prenos, dajanje zatočišča ali sprejemanje ljudi s silo, z goljufijo ali s prevaro, da bi jih izkoriščali za dobiček. Ena izmed pojavnih oblik trgovine z ljudmi je prisilno beračenje, ki je lahko del organizirane kriminalitete. Prisilni berači so pogosto ustrahovani in prisiljeni oddati ves ali večino zaslužka od beračenja storilcem, ki jih psihično ali fizično izkoriščajo. Otroci predstavljajo velik delež žrtev. Temelj boja proti trgovini z ljudmi predstavljata Konvencija Združenih narodov proti mednarodnemu organiziranemu kriminalu ter dopolnilni Protokol za preprečevanje, zatiranje in kaznovanje trgovine z ljudmi, zlasti ženskami in otroki (Palermski protokol). Francija je ena izmed držav, kjer je prisilno beračenje posebej izrazitodeluje kot izvorna, tranzitna in ciljna država, pri čemer je beračenje otrok najopaznejše v mestnih središčih, zlasti v Parizu. Najpogosteje prizadene otroke, večinoma mlajše od 10 let, predvsem iz držav vzhodne Evrope, kot sta Romunija in Bolgarija. Še posebej ranljivi so romski otroci, ki so zaradi socialne izključenosti, pomanjkanja dostopa do izobraževanja in družinskih migracij izpostavljeni številnim tveganjem, da postanejo žrtve. Do izkoriščanja prihaja bodisi v okviru družinskega izkoriščanja, kjer otroke v beračenje silijo starši ali skrbniki, bodisi s strani organiziranih kriminalnih združb. Glavni dejavniki tveganja za prisilno beračenje so revščina, migracije, brezposelnost, socialna izključenost, pomanjkanje izobrazbe, diskriminacija, kriminaliteta, korupcija in vojne. Prisilno beračenje otrok ima hude posledice, kot so zdravstvene težave, podhranjenost, poškodbe, depresija, zasvojenost in omejen dostop do izobrazbe. Otroci pogosto trpijo za psihološkimi travmami in nizko samopodobo. Po osvoboditvi ostajajo ranljivi za ponavljajoč padec v izkoriščanje, zato potrebujejo zaščito in podporo pri reintegraciji. Francija se aktivno bori proti trgovini z ljudmi, kar vključuje sprejetje nacionalnega akcijskega načrta in sodelovanje v mednarodnih preiskavah. Kljub prizadevanjem država nima dovolj sredstev za pomoč žrtvam, kazni za storilce so nizke, pristojni organi preobremenjeni, ocenjevanje ranljivosti otrok pa pomanjkljivo.Human trafficking is a modern form of slavery that involves the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring, or receipt of people through force, fraud, or deception for the purpose of exploitation. One form of human trafficking is forced begging, which can be part of organized crime. Victims of forced begging are often intimidated and coerced into handing over all or most of their earnings from begging to perpetrators who exploit them physically or psychologically. Children make up a large portion of the victims. The fight against human trafficking is based on the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime and the supplementing Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children. France is one of the countries where forced begging is particularly prevalent. It serves as a source, transit, and destination country, with child begging especially visible in urban areas, particularly in Paris. This practice most commonly affects children under the age of 10, primarily from Eastern European countries, such as Romania and Bulgaria. Roma children are especially vulnerable, as social exclusion, lack of access to education, and family migration expose them to multiple risks of becoming victims. Exploitation occurs either within families—where children are forced to beg by parents or guardians—or through organized criminal groups. The main risk factors for forced begging include poverty, migration, unemployment, social exclusion, lack of education, discrimination, crime, corruption, and armed conflict. Forced begging has severe consequences for children, such as health problems, malnutrition, injuries, depression, addiction, and limited access to education. They also tend to suffer psychological trauma and low self-esteem. Even after being freed, they remain vulnerable to re-exploitation and, therefore, require protection and support for reintegration. France is actively fighting human trafficking through the adoption of a national action plan and participation in international investigations. Despite these efforts, the country faces challenges, such as insufficient resources to support victims, low penalties for perpetrators, overburdened authorities, and inadequate assessment of children\u27s vulnerability
Impact of artificial intelligence on destination management of slovenian destinations
Get PDFUmetna inteligenca postaja pomemben dejavnik v turizmu, saj omogoča razvoj novih rešitev, ki izboljšujejo uporabniško izkušnjo in povečujejo konkurenčnost destinacij. V zadnjih letih se je uporaba umetne inteligence v turizmu močno razširila, kar je spodbudilo raziskavo o njenem vplivu na destinacijski management v Sloveniji. Cilji v teoretičnem delu zajemajo pregled strokovne in znanstvene literature o destinacijskem managementu, tehnološkem napredku v turizmu in vlogi umetne inteligence. Posebej je opredeljena oblike umetne inteligence in njene aplikacije, kot so personalizacija ponudbe, digitalni marketing, podatkovna analitika in napovedovanje trendov. V empiričnem delu so z metodo kvalitativnega raziskovanja bili izvedeni polstrukturirani intervju s predstavniki enajstih slovenskih destinacij. Zbrani odgovori so bili analizirani s pomočjo tematskega kodiranja, in sicer je na ta način bila raziskana trenutna praksa, priložnosti in ovire pri uporabi umetne inteligence v destinacijskem managementu. Ugotovljeno je bilo, da destinacije umetno inteligenco prepoznavajo kot ključno za prihodnji razvoj, vendar se pri implementaciji soočajo z izzivi, kot so pomanjkanje finančnih sredstev, znanja in vprašanja varstva podatkov. V zaključku so bila podana priporočila za nadaljnjo digitalno transformacijo slovenskega turizma.Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming an important factor in tourism, as it enables the development of new solutions that enhance the user experience and increase the competitiveness of destinations. In recent years, the use of AI in tourism has significantly expanded, which has encouraged research into its impact on destination management in Slovenia. The objectives of the thesis in the theoretical part included a review of professional and scientific literature on destination management, technological progress in tourism, and the role of artificial intelligence. Particular attention was given to defining different forms of AI and its applications, such as service personalization, digital marketing, data analytics, and trend forecasting. In the empirical part, qualitative research was conducted through semi-structured interviews with eleven Slovenian destinations. The collected responses were analyzed using thematic coding, which provided insights into current practices, opportunities, and barriers regarding the use of AI in destination management. The findings revealed that destinations recognize AI as a key factor for future development, but face challenges in its implementation, such as limited financial resources, lack of knowledge, and issues of data protection. In conclusion, recommendations for further digital transformation of Slovenian tourism were proposed
Okvir za vzpostavitev in delovanje globalnega logističnega energetskega središča
Get PDFEnergy is an essential component of our daily lives. Despite the expanded use of new and renewable energy sources, oil and gas remain the primary sources of energy. Recently, oil and gas sources have become more vulnerable due to their limited and uncertain availability, as well as geopolitical issues that threaten the security of their supply chains. As a result, securing energy sources in general and oil and gas in particular at reasonable prices and reliable supplies has become a major global concern. As a result, the establishment and operation of energy hubs along energy transit routes between producing and consuming countries is crucial for the security and sustainability of the energy supply. These energy hubs can facilitate the trade and exchange of energy by offering logistics services such as transportation, storage, processing, and distribution. This means that establishing and operating such energy hubs necessitates some logistics requirements. However, previous studies did not tackle the logistics requirements for establishing and operating energy hubs in a single, comprehensive framework. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to address the logistics requirements of energy hubs, with a focus on oil and gas, and to develop a comprehensive framework for establishing and operating GLEH through conducting an empirical study on the Egyptian oil and gas industry.
The study was carried out through seven sequential phases. The study conducted a systematic review of the previous literature using the PRISMA flow diagram and visual bibliometric analysis via VOSviewer software to identify the main research gap and develop an integrated theoretical framework for creating and operating a GLEH. The study then adopted mixed research methods to reap the benefits of both qualitative and quantitative methods. The qualitative technique was used to convert the theoretical framework into a practical framework by conducting semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders. The quantitative method was applied to examine the relationships between the variables and validate the study’s hypotheses in the Egyptian context through a survey.
The study set out an applied framework to help establish and operate GLEHs that can improve the security of energy supplies. It also highlighted the key challenges that might face the establishment and operation of GLEHs and suggested strategies to deal with them.
The study would contribute to science by developing a unique and comprehensive framework for establishing and operating GLEHs, considering both theoretical and empirical aspects. At a practical level, the proposed framework can help improve the global energy supply chain and its sustainability, especially for oil and gas. It can also be used as a model by other countries and regions to establish and operate logistics hubs for energy and other sectors. Furthermore, the framework can be used in further research to develop the performance of energy hubs.Energija je bistvena sestavina našega vsakdanjega življenja. Kljub vse večji uporabi novih in obnovljivih virov energije, nafta in plin ostajata primarna vira. V zadnjem času so viri nafte in plina postali ranljivejši zaradi svoje omejene in negotove razpoložljivosti ter geopolitičnih vprašanj, ki ogrožajo varnost njihovih oskrbnih verig. Posledično je zagotavljanje zanesljivih in cenovno ugodnih virov energije postalo globalna problematika. Vzpostavitev in delovanje globalnih logističnih energetskih središč (v nadaljevanju GLEH) vzdolž energetskih tranzitnih poti med državami proizvajalkami in državami porabnicami je ključnega pomena za varnost in trajnost oskrbe z energijo. Energetska središča lahko olajšajo trgovino in izmenjavo energije z zagotavljanjem logističnih storitev, kot so transport, skladiščenje in distribucija. Vzpostavitev in delovanje takih energetskih središč zahteva različne logistične dejavnike. Predhodne raziskave niso obravnavale logističnih zahtev za vzpostavitev in delovanje energetskih središč v celovitem okvirju, zato je namen raziskave obravnavati logistične zahteve energetskih središč s poudarkom na nafti in plinu s ciljem razvoja celovitega okvira za vzpostavitev in delovanje GLEH z izvedbo empirične študije na primeru Egipta.
Raziskava je potekala v sedmih zaporednih fazah. V prvi fazi smo izvedli sistematičen pregled relavantne literature z uporabo diagrama poteka PRISMA in vizualne bibliometrične analize s programsko opremo VOS viewer s ciljem identifikacije glavne raziskovalne vrzeli in razvoja integriranega teoretičnega okvira za vzpostavitev in delovanje GLEH. Sledila je uporaba kvalitativnih in kvantitativnih metod. Kvalitativna metoda je bila uporabljena za pretvorbo teoretičnega okvira v praktični z izvedbo polstrukturiranih intervjujev s ključnimi deležniki. Kvantitativna metoda je bila uporabljena za preučevanje odnosov med spremenljivkami in potrditev hipotez raziskave.
Na podlagi izvedene raziskave je predlagan praktično uporabni okvir kot pomoč pri vzpostavitvi in delovanju GLEH, ki lahko izboljša varnost oskrbe z energijo. Poudarjeni so tudi ključne izzive, s katerimi bi se lahko soočili pri vzpostavitvi in delovanju GLEH, ter predlagal strateške usmeritve za soočenje z njimi.
Doprinos k znanosti predstavlja postavitev edinstvenega in celovitega okvira za vzpostavitev in delovanje GLEH ob upoštevanju tako teoretičnih kot empiričnih vidikov. Na praktični ravni lahko predlagani okvir pomaga izboljšati globalno energetsko oskrbno verigo in njeno trajnost. Predlagani model je uporaben tudi v drugih državah in regijah pri vzpostaviti in delovanju logističnih središč za energetski ali drugi sektor. Poleg tega je okvir mogoče uporabiti v nadaljnjih raziskavah za razvoj učinkovitosti energetskih središč
Comparison of the organization of football matches in slovenia and croatia and the uefa champions league game instructions
Get PDFDiplomsko delo povzema, primerja in analizira pravila oz. navodila za organizacijo nogometne tekme pod okriljem Nogometne zveze Slovenije, Hrvaške nogometne zveze in Združenja evropskih nogometnih zvez.

UEFA ima svoja navodila napisana zelo podrobno in natančno, tako da lahko klubi brez težav dosežejo organizacijo nogometne tekme na najvišjem možnem nivoju, če le sledijo tem navodilom.
Nogometna zveza Slovenije se je zgledovala po navodilih UEFE, pri čemer pa so navodila napisana v zelo strnjeni obliki, saj so delno centralizirana in klubom dopuščajokanček svobode pri organizaciji nogometne tekme. Hrvaška nogometna zveza ima najbolj ohlapno napisana pravila za tekmovanje v prvi hrvaški ligi, kjer so zajeta le osnovna navodila in določila za pripravo nogometne tekme v prvi hrvaški ligi.
Natančnejša obravnava in razlaga navodil omenjenih krovnih nogometnih organizacij je podana v tem diplomskem delu.In my work, I will summarize, compare, and analyze the rules and instructions for organizing a football match under the jurisdiction of the Football Association of Slovenia, the Croatian Football Federation, and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA). Playing in national leagues allows clubs to participate at the highest level of club competitions, striving throughout the year to become champions of their countries. This achievement gives them the opportunity and privilege to progress through the qualifiers into the group stage of the UEFA Champions League.
The comparison of rules and instructions demonstrates how seriously the governing organizations take their most elite competition and how they aim to guide and support their clubs in organizing football matches at the highest possible level. This effort helps build the identity of a particular league and enhances the governing organization’s most important “brand” in terms of competitions.
UEFA provides detailed and precise instructions, ensuring that clubs that follow these guidelines can easily organize football matches at the highest level. The Football Association of Slovenia (NZS) adopts UEFA’s instructions and has written them in a condensed form, partly centralizing the guidelines while allowing clubs some freedom in organizing a football match.
The Croatian Football Federation (HNS) has the most loosely written rules for the Croatian First Football League, covering only the basic instructions and provisions for preparing a football match in the league.
A more detailed discussion and explanation of the instructions from the mentioned governing football organizations will follow in the continuation of this thesis
The French perspective on the Slovenian-Serbian conflicts in 1989
Get PDFNa podlagi analize gradiva francoskih diplomatskih arhivov Ministrstva za Evropo in zunanje zadeve iz Nantesa in La Courneuva ter francoskih časnikov Le Monde in Le Figaro članek obravnava francoski pogled na slovensko-srbske politične odnose leta 1989. Avtorja sta pod drobnogled vzela tri ključne dogodke: zborovanje v Cankarjevem domu 27. februarja, sprejetje amandmajev k slovenski ustavi 27. septembra in neuspeli mitingaški pohod v Ljubljani 1. decembra. Upoštevala sta zlasti vidike poročanja diplomatov francoskega veleposlaništva v Beogradu.Based on an analysis of material from the French diplomatic archives of the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs in Nantes and La Courneuve, as well as the French newspapers Le Monde and Le Figaro, this article examines the French perspective on Slovenian-Serbian political relations in 1989. The authors focus on three key events: the assembly in Cankarjev dom on 27 February, the adoption of the amendments to the Slovenian constitution on 27 September and the failed "Rally of Truth" in Ljubljana on 1 December. They paid particular attention to aspects of the reporting by diplomats from the French Embassy in Belgrade
The museum of folk-pop music as a media and a place of memory: a study of visitors
Get PDFV zaključni nalogi smo pristopili k raziskovanju presečišč med glasbo in turizmom skozi reprezentacije glasbenih muzejev, ki v zadnjih letih postajajo vse prepoznavnejši in s tem legitimno polje dediščinske prakse. Osredotočili smo se na glasbene muzeje kot medije in kreatorje kolektivnega spomina, ki skozi muzejske reprezentacije pomembno oblikujejo spomin družbe, pri čemer moramo obiskovalce muzejev vselej razumeti kot aktivne soustvarjalce pomenov muzejskih reprezentacij, saj skozi različna branja interpretirajo muzejske zbirke. V raziskavi se osredinimo na muzej narodnozabavne glasbe oziroma muzejsko zbirko Štirih kovačev v Slovenj Gradcu, kjer sprva skozi multimodalno analizo zbirke prepoznavamo glavne pomene, ki jih muzejske zbirka komunicira: tradicijo kovaštva, minevanje časa in nostalgijo po starih časih ter kulturno identiteto koroške regije. Nato smo izvedli študijo občinstva, da bi prepoznali, kako te muzejske reprezentacije berejo mlajši obiskovalci, ki niso primarno občinstvo tovrstnih muzejev. Skozi tematsko analizo empiričnega materiala, ki smo ga zbrali s fokusnimi skupinami, smo prepoznali prevladujoča razumevanja narodnozabavne glasbe med mladimi, vtise ogleda in posamična branja zbirke. Zaznavanje pogajalskega branja podkrepi teoretične okvire, da je občinstvo aktivno in bere reprezentacije glede na lastne življenjske izkušnje, hkrati pa prevladujoča dominantna branja obiskovalcev potrjujejo, da muzejska zbirka Štirih kovačev uspešno komunicira želene pomene občinstvu. Ugotovitve nakazujejo na pomembnost glasbe kot kulturnega produkta destinacije in njenega pomena pri povezovanju skupnosti, spominjanja in krepitve narodne ter kulturne identifikacije občinstva, ter priložnosti za razširitev raziskovalnih okvirjev znotraj študij popularne glasbe v Sloveniji na glasbene muzeje.In our final thesis, we approached the exploration of the intersections between music and tourism through the representations of music museums, which have become increasingly recognizable in recent years and thus a legitimate field of heritage practice. We focused on music museums as media and creators of collective memory, which significantly shape the memory of society through museum representations, whereby museum visitors must always be understood as active co-creators of the museum representation meanings, as they interpret museum collections through different readings. The research focuses on the folk music museum or the Štirje kovači ensemble museum collection in Slovenj Gradec, where we initially identify the main meanings communicated by the museum collection through a multimodal analysis of the collection: the tradition of blacksmithing, the passing of time and nostalgia for the old days, and the cultural identity of the Carinthian region. We then conducted an audience study to identify how these museum representations are read by younger visitors, who are not the primary audience of such museums. Through a thematic analysis of the empirical material collected through focus groups, we identified the dominant understandings of folk music among young people, impressions of the tour, and individual readings of the collection. The perception of negotiated reading supports the theoretical framework that audiences are active and read representations according to their own life experiences, while the prevailing dominant readings of visitors confirm that the Štirje kovači museum collection successfully communicates the desired meanings to the audience. The findings indicate the importance of music as a cultural product of the destination and its significance in connecting communities, remembering and strengthening the national and cultural identification of the audience, and the opportunity to expand research frameworks within popular music studies in Slovenia to music museums
Support for pregnant women with eating disorders
Get PDFMotnje hranjenja so pogoste psihiatrične motnje pri ženskah v rodni dobi in puščajo posledice tako na obolelih kot pri vseh družinskih članih. Pomembno je, da se pravočasno odkrijejo in zdravijo. Namen zaključnega dela je ugotoviti, katere intervencije zdravstvenega osebja so učinkovite pri podpori nosečnic z motnjami hranjenja. V zaključnem delu smo uporabili deskriptivno metodo dela. Za iskanje znanstvene literature smo uporabili podatkovne baze PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library in iskalnik Google Scholar. S pomočjo PRISMA diagrama smo predstavili potek iskanja literature.V končno analizo smo vključili šest raziskav. Ugotovili smo, da so pogovor, spodbujanje in zdravstveno-vzgojno delo ključne intervencije pri podpori nosečnic z motnjami hranjenja, veliko vlogo pa ima tudi odkrit in zaupen odnos nosečnice z zdravstvenim osebjem.Najbolj pomembna je dobra priprava žensk na nosečnost ter podpora zdravstvenega osebja. Nosečnice z motnjami hranjenja se morajo med obravnavo počutiti slišano, prav tako je pomembno, da zaupajo zdravstvenemu osebju in so pripravljene govoriti o svojih težavah. Odkrit in zaupen odnos pa pripomore k lažji organizaciji dela in boljši komunikaciji med zdravstvenim osebjem in nosečnico.Eating disorders are common psychiatric disorders in women of childbearing age, affecting both the sufferer and all family members. It is important that they are detected and treated in time. The aim of thesis is to identify which interventions by health professionals are effective in supporting pregnant women with eating disorders.In the thesis, we used the descriptive method of work. The following databases were used to search the scientific literature: PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library. PRISMA diagram was used to present the process of literature search. We included six studies in the final analysis. We found that talking, encouragement and health education are key interventions in supporting pregnant women with eating disorders, and that an honest and trusting relationship between the pregnant woman and the health professionals also plays a major role.The most important thing is that women are well prepared for pregnancy and that they have the support of health professionals. Pregnant women with eating disorders need to feel listened to during treatment, and it is important that they trust the health staff and are willing to talk about their problems. A frank and trusting attitude helps to facilitate the organisation of work and better communication between the health staff and the pregnant woman
Andrés Segovia: An Everlasting Legacy of a Classical Guitar Master
Get PDFMagistrsko delo se osredotoča na vlogo Andrésa Segovie v razvoju klasične kitare, pri čemer analizira njegov poustvarjalni, ustvarjalni, pedagoški in strokovni prispevek. S pomočjo arhivskih virov in že opravljenih raziskav proučuje vpliv Segovie na razvoj sodobne kitare, zlasti njegove pedagoške dosežke in zapuščino, ki so jo ohranili in nadgradili njegovi učenci. Segovieve inovacije in izboljšave v igranju klasične kitare ter širjenje kitarskega repertoarja so bile ključnega pomena za uveljavitev kitare kot modernega in spoštovanega inštrumenta.
Delo si prizadeva prikazati celoten življenjski opus Segovie, s poudarkom na njegovem umetniškem in pedagoškem vplivu na klasično glasbo 20. stoletja. Poleg analize njegovih tehničnih izboljšav pri igranju in izdelavi kitare se delo posveča tudi prispevku Segovie k razširitvi repertoarja klasične kitare, kar je omogočilo večjo popularnost tega inštrumenta. Segovia je bil tesno povezan z mnogimi pomembnimi skladatelji in kitaristi, ki so s svojim delom prispevali k rasti kitarske tradicije.
Metodološko magistrsko delo temelji na primerjavi arhivskih virov in dosedanjih raziskav. Zbiranje virov je bilo osredotočeno predvsem na spletne članke in knjige, saj ustrezna literatura v slovenskih knjižnicah ni bila dostopna. Na podlagi teh virov magistrsko delo celovito osvetljuje Segovieve inovacije, vpliv in življenjsko delo, ki je odločilno oblikovalo klasično kitaro, kot jo poznamo danes.The master\u27s thesis focuses on the role of Andrés Segovia in the development of the classical guitar, analysing his interpretive, creative, pedagogical and professional contributions. Using archival sources and previous research, it examines Segovia\u27s influence on the evolution of the modern guitar, particularly his pedagogical achievements and legacy, which has been preserved and expanded by his students. Segovia\u27s innovations and improvements in classical guitar performance, as well as his expansion of the guitar repertoire, were crucial in establishing the guitar as a modern and respected instrument.
The thesis aims to present the full scope of Segovia\u27s life work, emphasizing his artistic and pedagogical impact on the 20th-century classical music. In addition to analysing his technical improvements in guitar playing and craftsmanship, the thesis also focuses on Segovia\u27s contribution to the expansion of the classical guitar repertoire, which facilitated the greater popularity of the instrument. Segovia was closely associated with many important composers and guitarists, who contributed to the growth of the guitar tradition through their work.
Methodologically, the master\u27s thesis is based on the comparison of archival sources and existing research. The collection of sources was primarily focused on online articles and books, as relevant literature was not available in Slovenian libraries. Based on these sources, the thesis comprehensively sheds light on Segovia\u27s innovations, influence, and life work, which decisively shaped the classical guitar as we know it today
Connection between weight loss in infertile couples and infertility treatment
Get PDFUvod: Naraščanje debelosti in neplodnosti predstavlja velik javnozdravstveni problem. Prav tako je že dolgo znano, da obstaja povezava med debelostjo in neplodnostjo. Izguba telesne mase pred zdravljenjem neplodnosti se je izkazala za učinkovit ukrep, ki pripomore k boljšim izidom zdravljenja. Namen zaključnega dela je raziskati povezavo med izgubo telesne mase pri neplodnih parih in zdravljenjem neplodnosti.
Metode: Izvedli smo sistematični pregled literature. Literaturo smo iskali v podatkovnih bazah PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE (EBSCOhost) in Wiley Online Library, kot drugi vir smo uporabili tudi Google Scholar. Rezultate vključenih raziskav smo predstavili v evalvacijski tabeli in izvedli kritično oceno člankov po JBI. Sinteza je bila izvedena z deskriptivno metodo dela.
Rezultati: V končno analizo smo vključili osem raziskav, tri sistematične preglede literature in pet randomiziranih kliničnih raziskav. Raziskovali so učinek različnih aktivnosti za izgubo telesne mase na zdravljenje neplodnosti. Večina raziskav je ugotovila, da izguba telesne mase pri neplodnih parih s prekomerno telesno maso pred zdravljenjem neplodnosti pozitivno vpliva na uspešnost zanositve, na živorojenost pa ne.
Razprava in zaključek: Različne aktivnosti za izgubo telesne mase pri neplodnih parih s prekomerno telesno maso so se izkazale za učinkovite pri povečanju uspešnosti zanositve z uporabo tehnik asistirane reprodukcije. Vendar pa nismo ugotovili neposredne povezave med izgubo telesne mase in povečano živorojenostjo, to bi bilo potrebno dodatno raziskati.Introduction: The increase in obesity and infertility is a major public health problem. Also, it has long been known that there is a connection between obesity and infertility. Weight loss before infertility treatment has proven to be an effective measure that contributes to better treatment outcomes. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the connection between weight loss in infertile couples and infertility treatment.
Methods: We conducted a systematic literature review. Literature was searched in the databases PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE (EBSCOhost) and Wiley Online Library, Google Scholar was used as another source. The results of the included studies were presented in an evaluation table, and a critical appraisal of the articles was performed using the JBI criteria. The synthesis was carried out using a descriptive method of work.
Results: In the final analysis, we included eight studies, three systematic reviews of the literature and five randomized clinical trials. These studies investigated the effect of different weight loss activities on infertility treatment. Most studies have found that weight loss in overweight infertile couples before infertility treatment has a positive effect on pregnancy success rate, but not on live birth.
Discussion and conclusion: Different weight loss activities for overweight infertile couples have been shown to be effective in increasing the pregnancy success rate using assisted reproductive techniques. However, we did not find a direct link between weight loss and increased live birth rates. Further research would be needed to explore this
