    We wstępie do niniejszej książki zaprezentowany zostanie aktualny stan badań oraz główne założenia związane z zaangażowaniem Chin w regionie Europy Środkowej i Wschodniej. Ponadto przedstawione zostaną szczegóły na temat warsztatu badawczego (w postaci podejścia teoretycznego, przyjętych hipotez badawczych, wykorzystanego materiału itd.). Rozdział drugi poruszy problematykę relacji ChRL i Republiki Białorusi w obszarze gospodarczym i militarnym (w mniejszej mierze politycznym). Natomiast rozdział trzeci (poświęcony Ukrainie) skupi się na relacjach gospodarczych, jak i politycznych w kontekście „rewolucji godnościowej” czy następującej po niej aneksji Krymu oraz wojnie ukraińsko-rosyjskiej w Donbasie. Ostatnią część pracy stanowić będzie podsumowanie w oparciu o wnioski z wcześniejszych rozdziałów. Ponadto w zakończeniu współpraca z Białorusią i Ukrainą zostanie przeanalizowana również z perspektywy chińskiej. Autor postanowił wyabstrahować to zagadnienie w celu lepszej eksplanacji istoty zaangażowania Państwa Środka nad Dnieprem. Biorąc pod uwagę, iż motywacje decydentów w Pekinie odnośnie współpracy są zbliżone, takie wyodrębnienie ma zdaniem autora logiczne uzasadnienie. Na ostatnich stronach opracowania znajdują się aneksy w postaci zestawienia wymiany handlowej Chin z krajami Europy Środkowej i Wschodniej (wraz z Rosją) oraz mapy przedstawiające przebieg Nowego Jedwabnego Szlaku. Załączniki mają charakter rozszerzający względem informacji zawartych w głównej części opracowania.The preface to this book there will present the current state of research within the author’s area of interest and the main assumptions connected with the China involvement in the region of Central-Eastern Europe. Besides the preface will present the details concerning author’s research workshop (e.g. theoretical approach, main hypothesis and research materials, etc.). The second chapter will raise the issue of the relations between PRC and Belarus within the field of the military, economic and political affairs. The third chapter in turn devoted to Ukraine will be concentrated upon the economic and military relations as well as political one’s in the following context the Ukrainian Revolution of 2014 and its aftermath: annexation of Crimea and War in Donbass. The last part of this work will constitute a summary based on the conclusions from previous chapters. Moreover the summary will include the analysis of the cooperation between Belarus, Ukraine and China from the China perspective. The author has intended to abstract this issue with the intend to explain more clearly the essence of the China involvement on the Dnieper River. Taking into account that the motivations of the decision-makers in Beijing regarding the cooperation with both Ukraine and Belarus are similar, such abstracting has been, in the author’s view, logically justified. The final pages of this work contain the annexes in the form of the tables with details of trade flow between China and Central-Eastern European countries (including Russia) as well as maps presenting New Silk Road trajectory. Those appendixes has subsidiary character for the rest of research paper

    Submodular stochastic probing on matroids

    No full text
    In a stochastic probing problem we are given a universe E, where each element e in E is active independently with probability p in [0,1], and only a probe of e can tell us whether it is active or not. On this universe we execute a process that one by one probes elements - if a probed element is active, then we have to include it in the solution, which we gradually construct. Throughout the process we need to obey inner constraints on the set of elements taken into the solution, and outer constraints on the set of all probed elements. This abstract model was presented in [Gupta and Nagaraja, IPCO 2013], and provides a unified view of a number of problems. Thus far all the results in this general framework pertain only to the case in which we are maximizing a linear objective function of the successfully probed elements. In this paper we generalize the stochastic probing problem by considering a monotone submodular objective function. We give a (1-1/e)/(k_in+k_out+1)-approximation algorithm for the case in which we are given k_in greater than 0 matroids as inner constraints and k_out greater than 1 matroids as outer constraints. There are two main ingredients behind this result. First is a previously unpublished stronger bound on the continuous greedy algorithm due to Vondrak. Second is a rounding procedure that also allows us to obtain an improved 1/(k_in+k_out)-approximation for linear objective functions

    Teflonowa elita władzy? Dlaczego ujawnione przez media afery rządzących (nie)zawsze mobilizują polską opinię publiczną?

    No full text
    Celem artykułu jest wskazanie przyczyn nowego zjawiska w polskiej polityce wewnętrznej, a mianowicie ,,teflonowej” elity władzy. Określenie to oznacza niespotykaną wcześniej na taką skalę odporność ugrupowań tworzących obóz Zjednoczonej Prawicy na stawiane publicznie przez media aferalne zarzuty. Skandale będące efektem dziennikarskich śledztw, inaczej niż działo się to w czasach poprzednich ekip rządzących w Polsce, nie wywołały wyraźnego spadku poparcia obecnej elity władzy ani tym bardziej jej upadku. W artykule przedstawiono definicję skandalu politycznego. Autor omówił przyczyny niesłabnącej popularności obecnej władzy, do których zaliczył: kwestie ekonomiczne, propagandowe, edukacyjne, populizm rządzących, nieudolność komunikacyjną opozycji, zmęczenie społeczeństwa aferami oraz brak wrażliwości obywateli na przejawy patologii instytucji władzy. W badaniach wykorzystano metody analizy mikrosystemowej i podejmowania decyzji.The aim of the article is to indicate the causes of a new phenomenon in Polish domestic politics, namely the "Teflon" power elite. This term denotes the resistance of the groups making up the United Right camp to scandalous accusations made publicly by the media, that are unprecedented on such a scale. The scandals resulting from journalistic investigations, unlike in the times of previous ruling teams in Poland, did not cause a clear decline in the support of the current ruling elite, let alone its collapse. The article presents the definition of a political scandal. Moreover, the author discusses the reasons for the unflagging popularity of the current government, including: economic, propaganda and educational issues, the ruling populism, the opposition's communication inefficiency, society's fatigue with scandals and citizens' lack of sensitivity to the manifestations of the pathology of the government institutions. In the study of this issue, the microsystem analysis and the decision-making method were used

    Sustainable economic growth in Poland requires a high level of innovation. At the moment, innovation in the Polish economy is low due to factors such as insufficient research and development (R&D) expenditure in the corporate sector. In 2006, tax incentives were introduced to stimulate R&D in enterprises. However, they failed to produce the expected results. The incentives enjoyed little interest among businesspeople, and in consequence failed to contribute to increased spending on R&D in the corporate sector. The paper aims to evaluate these tax incentives by using international comparisons and putting forward proposals for changes in the tax break system. The existing system was examined with the use of the B-index (“before-tax income needed to break even on one dollar of R&D spending”), a popular measure of the tax system’s influence on investment in R&D applied by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The B-index is based on the idea of a marginal effective tax rate. It measures the relative profitability of R&D expenditure in a given tax system. The analyses made by the author show that the Polish tax system has a negative impact on R&D in the corporate sector—more detrimental than suggested by the B-indexes calculated by the OECD. The results obtained lead the author to conclude that the tax regulations currently in force in Poland are among the least favorable among OECD countries in terms of their influence on R&D in the corporate sector. According to Adamczyk, the main reason behind the unfavorable influence of the Polish tax system on the profitability of R&D in the corporate sector is that the existing tax breaks apply to a limited number of taxpayers. Other causes include inadequate income tax rates and tax amortization regulations used in the country. Poland’s current tax instruments designed to support R&D, due to their highly selective nature, contradict the idea of direct fiscal incentives, Adamczyk says. He adds that the effectiveness of tax breaks may also depend on factors not covered by the B-index, such as the transparency and stability of tax regulations

Shoulder pain as one of the symptoms of syringomyelia Krystian Ślusarz1*, Krzysztof Wierzbicki2, Monika Adamczyk-Sowa2 1Students’ Scientific Society, Department of Neurology, Medical University of Silesia, Zabrze, Poland 2Department of Neurology, Medical University of Silesia, Zabrze, Poland *E-mail address: [email protected] ABSTRACT Syringomyelia is typically a progressive chronic condition caused by a disruption of normal cerebrospinal fluid flow. Earlier diagnosis is associated with better outcomes, because although the progression of neurological deficits usually stabilizes after intervention, many patients still remain at least partially symptomatic. In this paper, we describe the case of a 33-year-old female patient with syringomyelia. The patient reported to the Department of Neurology due to sensory disorders and shoulder pain for several months. On admission, neurological examination revealed right hand muscular deficit, abolition of sensation of temperature and asymmetry of tendon reflexes. A few weeks earlier, outpatient magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the cervical spine showed the features of Arnold-Chiari malformation, syringomyelia and C5/C6 and C6/C7 discopathy. During hospitalization, MRI of the thoracic spine was performed, and the syringomyelic cavity C2–Th6 was revealed. The patient in stable condition was discharged home and referred to the neurosurgery department. The patient underwent a medial sub-occipital craniectomy and, a month later, was admitted to the neurological rehabilitation department due to paresis and sensory disturbances of right upper limb. As a result of the physiotherapy, the right arm's motor function and general physical condition improved. Keywords: syringomyelia, Arnold-Chiari malformatio

Vaccination of pregnant women Olga Adamczyk-Gruszka https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1295-009X [email protected] Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, Collegium Medicum, Jan Kochanowski University, Kielce, Poland; Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, Provincial Integrated Hospital in Kielce, Poland Abstract Vaccination of pregnant women for their protection and the protection of the fetus and the child is not common. Health professionals' prejudices about immunization of pregnant women increase the concerns of women and their families. Such behavior is not supported by scientific data. The literature describes the harmlessness of the vaccine for mother and child in the case of seasonal, pandemic or meningococcal flu, pneumococcus, tetanus, acellular pertussis, human papillomavirus, cholera, hepatitis A, Japanese encephalitis, rabies, anthrax, smallpox, yellow fever, mumps, measles and rubella, typhoid fever, inactivated or attenuated polio vaccines, and Bacillus Calmétte Guerin vaccines. Many scientific studies show the beneficial effects of the flu vaccine for mother and baby and the pertussis vaccine for the baby. Staff of Obstetrics and Gynecology Departments, family doctors and midwives should include vaccinations in their standard clinical care. Strategies are needed that are effective in reducing parents' reluctance to vaccinate. Every pregnant woman should be aware that the lack of vaccines before pregnancy does not preclude the use of some of them during pregnancy. Key words: pregnancy; vaccine; immunizatio
