ABSTRACT: Hepatitis C is a disease caused by hepatitis C virus (HCV), which prevalence may reach over 5% in some countries. Untreated infection may lead to death due to cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. Almost 80% of infected patients occurs as asymptomatic. Symptoms of hepatitis C may include jaundice, nausea, vomiting, fever or muscle and joint pains. Even half of the patients experience nervous system disorders, due to the affinity of some types of HCV to nerve cells. It is also estimated that up to 30% of patients with chronic hepatitis C will develop cirrhosis within 25-30 years. Currently, the vast majority of infected patients can be cured thanks to the introduction of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs).
Key words: hepatitis C virus, HCV, neurocognitive disorders, nervous system disorder

Birkhoff normalization, bifurcations of Hamiltonian systems and the Deprits formula
No full textWe consider Hamiltonian autonomous systems with n degrees of freedom near a singular point. In the case of absence of resonances of order less than or equal to 4 we present a direct computation of the Birkhoff normal form. In the case of two degrees of freedom, we study 1-parameter deformations of the 0: 1, 1: 1 and 2: 1 resonant singularities. The obtained results are used in a direct derivation of the Deprits formula for the isoenergetic degeneracy determinant in the restricted three-body problem. © 2013 The Author(s)
Sinfonietta for String Orchestra by Weronika Ratusińska in the Context of the Issue of (Sub)Genre
No full textThe purpose of the article is to focus on certain terminological and historical aspects related to the genre of sinfonietta in the Polish music of the 20th and 21st century. In the introduction, the author presents the definition and general characteristics, listing the sources and the most representative works in the Polish music. Additionally, she presents numerical statistics and classification of the sinfonietta in Polish music and on this basis she analyses one of the most interesting works representing the type of sinfonietta-transcription – Sinfonietta for string orchestra by Weronika Ratusińska from 2009. The author analyses the use and manner of modification of musical motifs, the way in which the sound layer is shaped and the relation between Ratusińska's work and tradition of the genre
Memoirs of Bernardine Sister Weronika Kempa from the period of World War II
No full textDuring World War II, the Bernardine Sisters from Łowicz were involved in intense charitable activities. In the September campaign during the Battle of Bzura, the Bernardine Sisters Convent was transformed into a hospital. Sisters organized beds for patients, underwear, bedding and food. They helped Polish offi cers imprisoned in Blich (the district of Łowicz) and those who waited for the deportation to Germany. They also provided assistance to the Jews from the ghetto of Łowicz. In 1944 they freed 150 children exported from Warsaw to Germany after the Warsaw Uprising and took them to the convent. There, they organized an orphanage for children who lost parents in the war. The person who was especially involved in that kind of activity was Weronika Kempa, the author of the memoirs of that time
Works for Harpsichord by Weronika Ratusińska-Zamuszko — Between the Past and the Present
No full textThe article is devoted to two works by Weronika Ratusińska-Zamuszko: the cycle Nymphs for soprano saxophone and harpsichord, and the miniature For Berenika. A miniature in the Baroque style. The introduction contains information about the composer and basic facts about the pieces in question. In the following sections of the article the author analyses: harmony (tonal arrangement and harmonic relations), form (formal models, motifs, rhythms), texture and sound as well as aesthetic aspects. Based on these elements, the key determinants of the composer's style are presented, referring to the Baroque techniques as well as those typical of the postmodern musical language, also discussing the issues of non-musical content resulting from the programme titles of the works. In the analytical part, the author presents an innovative analytical method consisting in reducing the notation of the harpsichord part to the basso continuo notation to verify the thesis that the choice of the instrument (in this case, the harpsichord) determines the style of the composition. The analytical argument leads to interesting research conclusions and is an attempt to define the composer's musical language

The Poetic Aspects in the Contemporary Polish Prose (Weronika Gogola: Little by Little)
No full textUtilizing speech act theory, this article examines the role of the poetic, understood as “a type of meaning different from the others” (Aleksandra Okopień-Sławińska), in Weronika Gogola’s work Po trochu [Little by Little] (2017, translated into Slovak as Po troškách) and the extent to which it is important for creating the “surplus of meaning” of the text (Paul Ricoeur). The coexistence of epical and poetic layers in Po trochu by Gogola, a Polish author and translator, is a factor of tension, or even competition, in terms of meaning and communication. Through the syncretism of epical and lyrical poetry, Gogola achieves a parabolic dimension in the story, making its narrative universal. The organizing factor within the text and the compositional layer of the work is the structure and semantics of the song and the emotional states of the author’s “self”. Gogola demonstrates that poetic syntax and lyrical digressions serve as the principal instruments for bridging the gap between poetry and epic literature. Furthermore, the openness of prose to the funeral song’s melody, semantics, and poetic expressions illustrates that Gogola’s story fits into the contemporary phenomenon of blurring the boundaries between poetry and prose
