The submitted article deals with the evaluation of the somatotype of persons and determination of a suitable somatotype for selected sports. In the introduction the method for determining and evaluating a somatotype according to Carter and Heath is characterised. The processes used for calculating the individual components - endomorphy, mesomorphy, ectomorphy - are presented as well as a description of these elements. The calculated components are subsequently put into a somatograph. The evaluation of a somatotype is of great benefit and offers a guideline with the selection of sporting activities; it subsequently helps assign athletes into a suitable position where they will be able to best develop their talents in view of their bodily construction. In this work two types of sports are evaluated - basketball and bodybuilding. With each sport the measurements which give the prerequisites for the given sport are presented. The selection of the presented sports was made with regard to the different requirements and demands in the scope of bodily constitution. The aim of the presented paper is to assess physical parameters of subjects groups in relation to selected sports (basketball and bodybuilding). Based on the body constitution to determine the conditions for developing the physical condition and success in the appointed sports. Another objective is to compare the rating form and equation methods for somatotype determination. The sample consist 32 subjects with age between 22-28 years of both sexes, who are dedicated to basketball, or bodybuilding at amateur level.

Background: Burn assessment traditionally relies on visual inspection and 2D estimation, which introduces substantial variability in determining wound size and healing progression. Three-dimensional (3D) surface scanning offers a more objective alternative, yet the clinical utility of area-based metrics obtained from 3D surface data remains insufficiently defined. This pilot study aimed to evaluate structured-light 3D scanning for objective longitudinal quantification of the burn wound surface area and a description of area-based healing dynamics derived from repeated measurements. Methods: Eighteen patients with 43 acute thermal burns underwent serial structured-light scanning, followed by manual segmentation of wound regions and the calculation of absolute and percentage area reduction as well as TBSA-normalized metrics. Longitudinal monitoring was performed by comparing sequential 3D surface models acquired at defined clinical follow-ups, enabling the calculation of absolute area change (ΔA), percentage reduction, daily healing rate, and ΔTBSA%. Results: Baseline wound areas ranged from 7.27 to 2137.98 cm². Percentage area reduction ranged from 5.25% to 92.30%. The overall reduction in burn burden (ΔTBSA) ranged from 0.07% to 12.94%. Large wounds tended to show rapid absolute area reduction (>100–300 cm²/day) during early follow-up, while small superficial burns frequently achieved >80% reduction within 10–15 days. Conclusions: These findings suggest that 3D surface scanning may support the objective longitudinal assessment of burn wound healing. This pilot provides a basis for future studies evaluating additional topographic parameters and broader clinical applications.

This paper deal about using health informatics in medical praxis. In the present time is starts in European Union the New Health National Strategy program. Concept of health informatics includes a lot of application areas and solutions, aiming to increase quality and efficacy of health care. By integrating the informatics technologies in medicine increased the effectivity for diagnostic and treatment of patients. In meaning of eHealth we present four research cases - scoliosis diagnostic, measurement of intra-abdominal pressure, measurement of total hip endoprosthesis wearing and mechanical testing of biological tissue.

Accurate documentation of burn wounds is essential for evaluating treatment outcomes and monitoring healing progression. Traditional two-dimensional (2D) photography remains the clinical standard but lacks depth and volumetric accuracy. Three-dimensional (3D) scanning offers enhanced visualization of wound morphology and tissue vitality, potentially improving objectivity in burn assessment. This study compares two handheld 3D scanning systems—Artec Eva and Revopoint Miraco—in documenting acute and healing burn wounds, using standard clinical photography as the reference. Fifteen patients with second-degree and third-degree burns were prospectively examined at the Burn Unit of AGEL Hospital Košice-Šaca, with five representative cases selected for detailed analysis. For each patient, clinical photographs and paired 3D scans were obtained under standardized conditions and evaluated for color fidelity, wound margin clarity, representation of epithelialisation islands, necrotic tissue, and correlation with clinical findings. Across all cases, Artec Eva demonstrated superior color accuracy, clearer wound delineation, and more realistic visualization of tissue vitality and re-epithelialisation. Revopoint Miraco reliably captured wound shape but produced darker tones and exaggerated surface relief, occasionally distorting depth perception. Overall, both systems successfully identified key healing features; however, Artec Eva provided more clinically accurate and visually consistent results. Three-dimensional scanning represents a valuable adjunct to conventional burn documentation.

Static pedobarometry is widely used to assess plantar pressure distribution and postural control; however, its clinical interpretation depends on measurement repeatability and reliability. The aim of our article is to evaluate the repeatability of plantar pressure parameters and the spatial localization of the center of pressure (CoP) and peak pressure (PP) during static bipedal standing. Five healthy adults underwent 30 repeated static measurements using the Sidas Press-Cam platform under standardized laboratory conditions. Analyzed parameters included contact area, mean pressure, peak pressure, and the center of pressure coordinates. Repeatability was assessed using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC), standard error of measurement (SEM), and Bland–Altman analysis. Contact area showed high single-measure repeatability (ICC (2, 1) = 0.90). Peak pressure and mean pressure demonstrated moderate repeatability for single trials but excellent repeatability when averaged (ICC (2, k) = 0.97–0.996). The center of pressure exhibited greater mediolateral than anteroposterior variability. Peak pressure localization remained stable within 3 SD and predominantly on the dominant limb. Averaging multiple trials enhances measurement repeatability, suggesting that repeated static pedobarometric assessments may provide more consistent estimates of plantar pressure parameters. However, these findings should be interpreted as preliminary evidence from an intra-session repeatability study due to the limited sample size.
