Abstract
AIMS Psychological care is recognised as an integral part of quality diabetes care. We set out to describe the roles and competencies of the clinical psychologist as a member of the multidisciplinary adult diabetes care team, focused on secondary care. METHODS The authors are clinically experienced psychologists involved in adult diabetes care, from Australia, Europe and North America, and active members of the international psychosocial aspects of diabetes study group. Consensus was reached as a group on the roles and competencies of the clinical psychologist working in adult diabetes secondary care, building both on expert opinion and a selective review and discussion of the literature on psychological care in diabetes, clinical guidelines and competency frameworks. RESULTS The clinical psychologist fulfils multiple roles: (1) as a clinician (psychological assessment and therapy), (2) as advisor to the healthcare team (training, consulting), (3) as a communicator and promotor of person-centred care initiatives and (4) as a researcher. Four competencies that are key to successfully fulfilling the above-mentioned roles in a diabetes setting are as follows: (a) specialised knowledge, (b) teamwork and advice, (c) assessment, (d) psychotherapy (referred to as STAP framework). CONCLUSIONS The roles and competencies of clinical psychologists working in diabetes extend beyond the requirements of most university and post-graduate curricula. There is a need for a comprehensive, accredited specialist post-graduate training for clinical psychologists working in diabetes care, building on the proposed STAP framework. This calls for a collaborative effort involving diabetes organisations, clinical psychology societies and diabetes psychology interest groups.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetes distress (DD) and diabetes burnout (DB) are recognized psychological phenomena in patients with T1DM (type 1 diabetes mellitus). Still, there is an urgent need to create professional psychological intervention procedures to provide patients with adequate care. AIM The aim of the study was to assess the level of DD and DB in T1DM patients at baseline and after 5 of sessions psychological intervention in the group of participants who applied for help. METHODS 34 T1DM patients who requested psychological support (22 females, 12 males) and 30 patients in a control group (14 females, 16 males) participated in the study. At baseline clinical test results between groups were compared. Next, in the studied group measurements were repeated after a set of five psychological face-to-face individual interventions which lasted 30-60 min each. They were support sessions with elements of cognitive-behavioral interventions done by clinical psychologists. Session 1: introduction, interview and collection of test results; session 2-4: work on the indicated by the patient and test results most problematic aspect of diabetes, session 5: a summary and plan for further treatment if needed. The control group results were obtained only at baseline. Research tools: DDS; PAID, Diabetes Burnout test by Polonsky. RESULTS At the baseline, significant differences were observed between the studied group and control group: in DB/DD levels: DB (3.9 ± 1.7 vs 2.4 ± 1.6; p < 0.001); DDS (3.2 ± 1.0 vs 2.7 ± 1.0; p = 0.064); PAID (62.3 ± 14.1vs 34.4 ± 21.0; p < 0.001). There were also group differences in HbA1c levels (8.7 ± 2.4 vs 7.3 ± 1.5; p = 0.028). After psychological interventions, there was a significant improvement in DB (3.9 ± 1.7vs 2.9 ± 1.2; p < 0.001; DDS (3.2 ± 1 vs 3.0 ± 0.7; p = 0.03); PAID (62.3 ± 14.1 vs 51.8 ± 12.5; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS DD and DB constitute a significant problem in the group of T1DM patients, but providing appropriate specialist care may help them accept diabetes and improve life satisfaction, as well as regain control over their diabetes management.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE The purpose of this follow-up study on the implementation of advanced closed-loop hybrid insulin pumps in people with type 1 diabetes was to assess the impact of introducing this advanced technology on quantitative and qualitative parameters of diet. MATERIAL AND METHODS 18 patients (8 women and 10 men, mean age 40.9 years) patients using the CE-marked MiniMed 780G AHCL system who completed 1 year of follow-up were included into the study. The research tool was the KomPAN questionnaire with several own questions added, asked in three study periods, concerning the number of meals consumed, general and night snacking, carbohydrate counting, frequency of consumption of various groups of products that affect postprandial glycaemia. RESULTS Although the mean body weight of the examined group did not increase significantly (from 75.1 kg at the beginning to 75,9 kg at the end), five various individual scenarios of weight change were observed. The eating habits has not changed, but patients began to consume less products containing simple sugars, e.g. fruit preserves, milk chocolate or fish in sauces (p<0.05). No statistically significant correlation was found between the change in body weight at the end of the study and the average amount of carbohydrates entered into the pump from the entire 12 months (p = 0.460). CONCLUSIONS The implementation of AHCL system in technology naïve patients, despite offering more freedom of food choices due to better glycaemic control, did not have a significant impact on patients' dietary patterns, also did not result in weight gain. This is important since AHCL system offers more freedom of food choices due to better glycaemic control. However, the longer follow up and the study based on larger population is required to finally address the issue of the impact of AHCL on body mass.

Abstract
Background Anhedonia is the core symptom of depression. Its presence has been linked to worsened prognosis. The Dimensional Anhedonia Rating Scale (DARS) is a scale measuring desire, motivation, effort and consummatory pleasure across different domains. The aim of this paper was to confirm factor structure, assess reliability and validity of the Polish adaptation of the DARS in a clinical sample of patients with mood disorders and healthy controls (HC). Methods The study sample included 161 participants aged 18-65 years - 34 HC, 72 patients with bipolar disorder and 55 with major depressive disorder (in depressive episode or remission). Reliability of the Polish adaptation of the DARS was assessed using Cronbach's α and the average inter-item correlation (AIC). Convergent and divergent validity was established by Pearson's correlations between the DARS and the Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale (SHAPS), the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology- self-report (QIDS-SR), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). The structure of the scale was examined by factor analysis. Results The factor structure was consistent with the original scale. Strong internal consistency for the DARS total score (Cronbach's α = 0.95) and all subscales (0.86-0.93) was observed. The DARS demonstrated good convergent (moderate to strong correlations with measures of anhedonia and depression) and divergent validity (weak correlations with anxiety level). Conclusion The Polish DARS demonstrated excellent internal consistency and very good validity. The scale is a valuable contribution to the psychometrics of anhedonia measures in patients with mood disorders.

Abstract
Aim To evaluate the effect of a one-year use of an advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) system on the quality of life, level of anxiety, and level of self-efficacy in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) previously treated with multiple daily injections (MDI) and naïve to advanced diabetes technology. Methods A total of 18 participants of a previously published 3-month randomized trial (10 men, 8 women; age 40.9 ± 7.6 years) who were switched directly from MDI/BMG to AHCL completed 12 months of MiniMed 780G™system use (a 3-month randomized trial followed by a 9-month follow-up phase). At month 6 of the study, patients were switched from the sensor GS3 (Continuous Glucose Monitoring) system, powered by Guardian™ Sensor 3) to GS4. Quality of life was assessed using the Polish validated version of the 'QoL-Q Diabetes' questionnaire. The level of anxiety was evaluated with the use of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). Self-efficacy was assessed with the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES). Results were obtained at baseline and at the end of the study. Results Significant increase in QoL was reported in the global score (p=0.02, Cohen d=0.61) and in as many as 11 out of 23 analyzed areas of life: being physically active (p=0.02, Cohen d = 0.71); feeling well (p<.01, Cohen d = 0.73); feeling in control of my body (p<.01, Cohen d = 0.72); looking good (p<.01, Cohen d = 1.07); working (p<.01, Cohen d = 1.12); sleeping (p=0.01, Cohen d = 0.66); eating as I would like (p<.01, Cohen d = 0.79); looking after or being useful to others (p= 0.02, Cohen d = 0.65); being active with pets/animals (p<.01, Cohen d = 0.95); being spontaneous (p=0.02, Cohen d = 0.67); and doing "normal" things (p=0.02, Cohen d = 0.67). Both state (p=0.04, Cohen d = 0.56) and trait (p=0.02, Cohen d = 0.60) anxiety decreased while the general self-efficacy increased (p=0.03, Cohen d = 0.76). No participant stopped the use of the pump. Conclusion Adult patients with T1D previously treated with MDI and naïve to modern technologies experienced significant improvement in their psychological well-being after transitioning to the AHCL system after 12 months of treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The transition period of patients with type 1 diabetes from pediatric to adult-oriented health care is associated with poorer glycemic control and less frequent clinic attendance. Fears and anxiety about the unknown, care approach differences in adult settings, and sadness about leaving the pediatric provider all contribute to a patient's reluctance to transition. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the psychological parameters of young patients with type 1 diabetes transitioning to an adult outpatient clinic during the first visit. METHODS We examined 50 consecutive patients (n=28, 56% female) transitioning from March 2, 2021, to November 21, 2022, into adult care (3 diabetes centers from 3 regions in southern Poland: A, n=16; B, n=21; and C, n=13) and their basic demographic information. They completed the following psychological questionnaires: State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale, Perceived Stress Scale, Satisfaction with Life Scale, Acceptance of Illness Scale, Multidimensional Health Locus of Control Scale Form C, Courtauld Emotional Control Scale, and Quality of Life Questionnaire Diabetes. We compared their data with those for the general healthy population and patients with diabetes from Polish Test Laboratory validation studies. RESULTS During the first adult outpatient visit, patients' mean age was 19.2 (SD 1.4) years, with a diabetes duration of 9.8 (SD 4.3) years and BMI of 23.5 (SD 3.1) kg/m2. Patients came from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds: 36% (n=18) live in villages, 26% (n=13) live in towns with ≤100,000 inhabitants, and 38% (n=19) live in bigger cities. Regarding therapy type, 68% (n=34) were treated with insulin pump therapy, whereas 32% (n=16) were treated with multiple daily injections. Patients from center A had a mean glycated hemoglobin level of 7.5% (SD 1.2%). There was no difference regarding the level of life satisfaction, perceived level of stress, and state anxiety between the patients and reference populations. Patients had similar health locus of control and negative emotions control to the general population of patients with diabetes. Most patients (n=31, 62%) believe that control over their health depends on themselves, whereas 52% (n=26) believe that it depends mostly on others. Patients had higher levels of suppression of negative emotions-anger, depression, and anxiety-than the age-matched general population. Additionally, the patients were characterized by a higher acceptance of illness and higher level of self-efficacy compared to the reference populations: 64% (n=32) had a high level of self-efficacy and 26% (n=13) had a high level of life satisfaction. CONCLUSIONS This study indicated that young patients transitioning to adult outpatient clinics have good psychological resources and coping mechanisms, which might result in adequate adaptation and adult life satisfaction including future metabolic control. These result also disprove the stereotypes that young people with chronic disease have worse life perspectives when entering adulthood.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to observe the one-year clinical outcomes of people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who switched from Multiple Daile Injection + Blood Glucose Meter to an advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) system (Medtronic MiniMedTM 780G system (MM 780G). Additionally, the effect of changing at month 6 to a calibration free sensor (GuardianTM 4 Sensor (G4S) was evaluated. 18 participants (10 men, age 40.9±7.6 years) completed 1 year of MM 780G use. Time in range (70-180 mg/dL) (TIR) remained stable and ranged from 83.2% in month 9 to 84.8% in month 3. There was no difference between TIR at 3 months before switching vs 3 months after switching to G4S (p=0.614). AHCL system in adults significantly improves glycemic outcomes. This improved glycemic control was maintained over the 12 months. Switching to a calibration free sensor (G4S) did not affect outcomes but required less patient involvement.

Abstract
This year’s first issue of APP appears with a variety of relevant clinical topics presented by nine groups of authors from different countries. It opens with two original articles raising awareness about postpartum mental health conditions. Anida Vrcić Amar and Hana Sejfović from Serbia presented correlations of reduced social support from partners, friends and family, difficult newborn temperament, and low socioeconomic status with postpartum depression. In the second paper, Sara Dalley and Catherine M. Hickey from Memorial University of Newfoundland show the effects of implementation of an educational session aimed at increasing awareness of the impact of breastfeeding on mental health and it’s possible protective influence on female’s mood.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of the study was to check the prevalence of unipolarity (depression), bipolarity, as well as the quality of sleep and temperament traits in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) who are provided with optimal conditions of diabetes care and to identify possible risk factors connected with affective traits. MATERIALS AND METHODS Out of the 107 T1DM patients, 78 (54 females, 24 males) were included for the analysis (HbA1c [%] 7.11 ± 1.0, BMI [kg/m2 ] 25.3 ± 5.6; Years of disease duration [N] 13.7 ± 8.3). The patients filled in a set of questionnaires during their regular visit to the outpatient clinic. Three patients from the whole group were on intensive insulin therapy with Multiple Daily Injections (MDI) and Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG), all the rest were on various types of personal insulin pumps (years on insulin pump [N] 9.1 ± 4.5). All the patients were on regular diabetologist care, with regular visits in a Centre for Advanced Technologies in Diabetes (at least every 6 months). RESULTS In QIDS-S (full explanation and abbreviation 26 patients (33.8%) were screened positive for depression, in PHQ (full explanation and ab 57.7% of the patients (45 patients) had symptoms of depression (age was negatively correlated with PHQ score [r = -0.26; p = 0.023]). In CES-D 16 (20%) of the patients assessed their present affect as depressed. None of the analysed clinical variables correlated with depression scores. In the Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ), 16 patients reported having symptoms of bipolarity (20.5% vs. 79.5%). Hypomania Checklist (HCL) analysis indicated 10 patients with bipolar traits (>14) (14.9% vs. 85.1%). None of the analysed clinical variables correlated with HCL results. 11.5% of patients were indicated to be of morning type. Morningness was more often seen in younger patients (r = 0.39; p = 0.001). As many as 46.6% declared that they had poor sleep quality. The temperament traits analysis correlated with clinical parameters: Cyclothymic temperament trait was negatively correlated with age (r = -0.30; p = 0.007) and positively with HbA1c level (r = 0.30; p = 0.025). Hyperthymic temperament was positively correlated with (BMI r = 0.28; p = 0.016). Quality of sleep was highly correlated with depressive symptoms CESD (r = 0.61, p = 0.001), PHQ Score (r = 0.62; p = 0.001), QISD (r = 0.68; p = 0.001) and bipolarity MDQ (p = 0.50, p = 0.001) and HCL (r = 0.42, p = 0.001). In addition, QIDS was shown to be correlated with the following features of temperament: depressive factor (r = 0.41; p = 0.001), irritable factor (r = 0.53; p = 0.001), cyclothymic factor (r = 0.59; p = 0.001), anxious factor (r = 0.58, p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of affective disorders and poor sleep quality in the examined T1DM patients was much higher than in the general population. Even if the patients have in general good glycaemic control, their mental health condition should not be neglected. Well organised cooperation between patients, diabetologists, psychiatrists and psychotherapists is needed (Clinical Trials Identifier: NCT04616391).

Abstract
The end of the year is a time for some summaries, and 2022 was a year of many events and crises affecting our mental health: the ongoing pandemic, the war in Ukraine, the economic crisis with rocketing fuel prices or inflation to name but a few.
But after the shortest day of the year, the longer ones come ahead, and just as light finally triumphs over darkness, so are we looking forward to the upcoming 2023 with hope.
This issue of the APP opens with the paper by Magdalena Chęć et al., reflecting on the relationship between temperament and addiction to psychoactive substances in young adults.

Abstract
The paper presents a case of 25 female patient, who is a clinical example of a triple
comorbidity – she was a preterm child in which at the age of 2 autism spectrum disorder (ASD) was diagnosed, and at the age of 3 type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). The described case is special because autism coincides not only with diabetes, but also with blindness due to retinopathy of prematurity. In such a situation, the choice of the right treatment method has become a clinical challenge.
Considering the patients’ health status and life conditions (comorbidity of T1DM, autism and blindness, abusive, not engaged father, difficult financial situation) very good treatment results as far as T1DM is concerned were achieved: her HbA1c values available from last 3 years ranged from 6.5-7.3% Also, regardless of many obstacles and life crises, the patient maintains possibly the best in her conditions, psychological well-being.
The paper can be a source of knowledge and inspiration, presenting challenges and possibilities in treatment of people with T1DM, autism, and other comorbidities. From the therapeutic point of view, it indicates that well planned, individualized therapy may be the basis for creating optimal conditions for the development and improvement of the quality of life of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of transitioning to the MiniMed 780G advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) system in adult individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) naive to continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technologies. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This was a two-center, randomized, controlled, parallel-group trial with evaluation of individuals with T1DM aged 26-60 years managed with multiple daily injections (MDI) and self-monitoring of blood glucose (BGM) with HbA1c <10%. RESULTS A total of 41 participants were recruited and randomized to either the AHCL (n = 20) or the MDI+BGM (n = 21) group, and 37 participants (mean ± SD age 40.3 ± 8.0 years, duration of diabetes 17.3 ± 12.1 years, BMI 25.1 ± 3.1 kg/m2, HbA1c 7.2 ± 1.0%) completed the study. Time spent with glucose levels in target range increased from 69.3 ± 12.3% at baseline to 85.0 ± 6.3% at 3 months in the AHCL group, while remaining unchanged in the control group (treatment effect 21.5% [95% CI 15.7, 27.3]; P < 0.001). The time with levels below range (<70 mg/dL) decreased from 8.7 ± 7.3% to 2.1 ± 1.7% in the AHCL group and remained unchanged in the MDI+BGM group (treatment effect -4.4% [95% CI -7.4, -2.1]; P < 0.001). Participants from the AHCL group also had significant improvements in HbA1c levels (treatment effect -0.6% [95% CI -0.9, -0.2]; P = 0.005) and in quality of life (QoL) in specific subscales compared with the MDI+BGM group. CONCLUSIONS People with T1DM naive to CSII and CGM technologies initiating AHCL significantly and safely improved their glycemic control, as well as their QoL and psychological well-being.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The study aims to check whether individual side effects of treatment with TKIs in patients suffering from CML may contribute to the occurrence of anxiety symptoms. In addition, it was decided to check whether there were any relationships between age, gender, duration of treatment, and the intensity of anxiety, divided by the occurrence of individual side effects. METHODS The study involved 91 patients and was conducted at the Hematology Clinic of the University Hospital in Krakow. The following questionnaires were used: created by the author, David Goldberg Questionnaire GHQ-28, and the four-dimensional 4DSQ Questionnaire. RESULTS The most frequently mentioned side effects of treatment were bone and joint pain, muscle cramps and pain, water retention, and fatigue. The mean duration of the disease was ten years. Our research showed that fatigue, nausea/indigestion, frequent infections, bone and joint pain, abdominal pain, and loss of appetite were the most common side effects of TKI treatment, which resulted in increased anxiety symptoms. CONCLUSIONS The work of doctors, psychologists, and pharmaceutical companies on reducing/alleviating side effects may in the future affect a better quality of life for these patients. Early detection of severe anxiety and taking appropriate steps can prevent the emergence of more significant disorders. In addition, several years of attempts to discontinue treatment with some TKIs (imatinib and nilotinib) in patients who achieve a profound molecular response may improve their mental condition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The paper presents the results of work on the Polish adaptation of the Self-Assessed Wisdom Scale (SAWS). It presents the psychometric properties of the Polish version of the tool. METHODS The research was quantitative in nature and it was carried out in a correlation scheme. The respondents completed a set of questionnaires. 880 subjects aged 60-80 years (M = 68.15; SD = 5.96) participated in the study. Apart from the SAWS six other psychological methods were used. The selection of measuring tools was purposeful. RESULTS The final Polish version of the SAWS consists of 40 items (including 36 diagnostic ones) that make up 5 dimensions of wisdom: (1) "Critical Life Experience", (2) "Emotional Regulation", (3) "Reminiscence and Reflectiveness",(4) "Openness" and (5) "Humor". The reliability index for the entire scale (36 items) was α = 0.92 (very high). Reliability values (Cronbach's α) for individual scales vary from α = 0.60 to α = 0.84. The validity of the scale was evaluated by means of confirmatory analysis. CONCLUSIONS The results are consistent with the original version of the scale, thus it has been indicated that the Polish version of the SAWS fulfils the psychometric requirements for psychological tests. The scale can be applied in scientific research.

Abstract
The superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF) is a white matter bundle that connects the frontal areas with the parietal areas. As part of the visuospatial attentional network, it may be involved in the development of schizophrenia. Deficit syndrome (DS) is characterized by primary and enduring negative symptoms. The present study assessed SLF integrity in DS and nondeficit schizophrenia (NDS) patients and examined possible relationships between it and psychopathology. Twenty-six DS patients, 42 NDS patients, and 36 healthy controls (HC) underwent psychiatric evaluation and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). After post-processing, fractional anisotropy (FA) values within the SLF were analyzed. Psychopathology was assessed with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale, Brief Negative Symptom Scale, and Self-evaluation of Negative Symptoms. The PANSS proxy for the deficit syndrome was used to diagnose DS. NDS patients had lower FA values than HC. DS patients had greater negative symptoms than NDS patients. After differentiating clinical groups and HC, we found no significant correlations between DTI measures and psychopathological dimensions. These results suggest that changes in SLF integrity are related to schizophrenia, and frontoparietal dysconnection plays a role in its etiopathogenesis. We confirmed that DS patients have greater negative psychopathology than NDS patients. These results are preliminary; further studies are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The COVID-19 pandemic has challenged the worldviews of most people. Social isolation after the COVID-19 lockdown has not only led to economic difficulties but also resulted in adverse psychological reactions. As in most countries, including Poland, this situation has been very challenging for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). In Poland, a crisis intervention team for patients with T1DM was established. The goal of the team was to provide psychological support for these patients, if needed, and to present information concerning how these patients may obtain medical consultations and prescriptions. OBJECTIVE We aimed to analyze the psychological parameters and main emotional reactions of patients with T1DM during the COVID-19 lockdown. METHODS An email with information concerning the possibility of having a web-based consultation with psychologists and psychiatrists and an attached set of psychological tests was sent to all patients with T1DM who were under the care of an outpatient diabetes clinic. The consultations were performed by licensed clinical psychologists and psychologists. This study was approved by the Bioethics Committee of the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland. RESULTS The patients who decided to use psychological support had statistically higher levels of anxiety (state P=.043; trait P=.022), stress (P=.001) than those of patients from the group who did not seek support. CONCLUSIONS The presented intervention team may be perceived as an example of important and successful cooperation and communication between specialists of different fields of medicine (diabetology, psychiatry, and psychology) in a crisis situation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Assessment of mental state of patients with T1DM - the level of anxiety, stress and general mental health in the stressful conditions of an epidemic. Moreover, it was checked whether the stress response to the epidemic in the T1DM group differed from that in the control group. This is the first study to address these questions in the type 1 diabetes population in Poland. METHODS An e-mail was sent to all T1DM patients under the care of a diabetes clinic with information about the possibility of online consultation with a psychologist / psychiatrist, with a set of psychological tests attached. The study included 49 patients with T1DM who responded within the first month and agreed to participate in the study. 38 people from the control group were randomly recruited. Each person completed a set of psychological tools. RESULTS In both groups, the level of stress was higher than typical for the general population in the situation without stressor. T1DM patients who have been ill for over 10 years more often cope with stress through a task-oriented approach. Patients who have been ill for less than 10 years use avoidance strategies. In the first phase of the epidemic,women with T1DM used avoidance strategies. Patients with diabetes and mental disorders react more anxiously and thus require special care in coping with diabetes. CONCLUSIONS In a situation of stress such as a epidemic, patients suffering from T1DM require optimization of treatment and cooperation of specialists in the field of diabetes and psychology / psychiatry.

Abstract
There is ample evidence that sport is a protective factor against a number of health risks, across all ages, in the general population. An in-depth understanding of energy metabolism has reasonably entailed exercise as a cornerstone in the lifestyle of almost all subjects with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Nevertheless, individuals with T1DM often fail in accomplishing exercise guidelines and they are often less active than their peer without diabetes. Two major obstacles are feared: management of blood glucose control and hypoglycemia. Nowadays, strategies, including glucose monitoring technology and insulin pump therapy, have significantly contributed to the participation in regular physical activity, and even in competitive sports, for T1DM people. The case report presents an analysis of specific personality traits and psychological parameters of 20 years old female Polish multiple champion in weightlifting with excellent T1DM control.

Abstract
Altered methylation of the FKBP5 gene has been observed in various mental disorders and attributed to the effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). However, the level of FKBP5 methylation has not been investigated in patients with psychotic disorders. Therefore, in this study we aimed to determine the FKBP5 methylation in patients with psychosis and controls, taking into account the effects of ACEs. Participants were 85 patients with psychotic disorders, including first-episode psychosis (FEP) patients and acutely relapsed schizophrenia (SCZ-AR) patients, as well as 56 controls. The level of four CpG sites at the FKBP5 gene was determined in the peripheral blood leukocytes using pyrosequencing. After controlling for potential confounding factors, the level of FKBP5 methylation at one out of four tested CpG sites was significantly lower in FEP patients compared to other groups of participants. Significant main effects of parental antipathy and sexual abuse on the level of FKBP5 methylation were observed at the differentially methylated CpG site. Participants reporting this category of ACEs had significantly lower levels of FKBP5 methylation at this CpG site. Lower levels of FKBP5 methylation were associated with better cognitive performance and higher functional capacity in patients with psychosis. In controls, lower methylation of FKBP5 was related to worse performance of immediate memory and language skills. Our findings suggest that hypomethylation of the FKBP5 appears at early stages of psychosis and might be associated with a history of ACEs as well as less severe clinical manifestation.

Abstract
The aim of this work is to present the results of research on occupational burnout in a group of psychiatrists. The electronic databases and empirical publications from 2000-2017 were searched. In order to identify reports that met the selection criteria, the papers was critically assessed. In the presented studies it was shown that the burnout syndrome is most often presented in accordance with the theoretical model proposed by Christina Maslach (including the dimension of depersonalization, emotional exhaustion and the feeling of lack of personal achievements). Risk factors include, among others: too long working hours, low earnings, negative self-image, specificity of treated patients, conflicts with colleagues, satisfaction with the work performed, insufficient supervision of work.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the relationshipsbetween personality traits typical for neurotic disorders and dysfunctional attitudes declared by patients without suicidal ideations (SI) prior to treatment and SI at the end of an intensive psychotherapy with a predominant psychodynamic approach in the day hospital for neurotic, behavioral, or personality disorders. MATERIAL AND METHOD KO "O" Symptom Checklist for assessing SI, Neurotic Personality Questionnaire KON-2006 for evaluation of neurotic personality characteristics and patients' attitudes, and a Life Questionnaire, all completed by a group of 680 patients of a day psychotherapy ward, treated for the first time. Statistical analysis encompassed 466 non-SI patients, 4% of whom had SI at the end of treatment. RESULTS A number of attitudes have been identified in patients who were significantly predisposed to SI at the end of intensive psychotherapy: physical aggression towards relatives (p < 0.001), grandiose fantasies (p = 0.043), resignation tendencies (p = 0.022), resignation feeling associated with the experience of loss of life opportunities (p = 0.037), and being guided mainly by intuition (p = 0.035). It was also observed that declaring certain attitudes was significantly associated with less than average chance of SI at the end of treatment. CONCLUSIONS In patients who declared these attitudes, there was a higher risk of SI at the end of the psychotherapy cycle than in the remaining patients (10-30% vs. 4%), which indicates the presence of specific dysfunctions of personality, in the case of which intensive psychotherapeutic work requires particular caution -it can trigger emotional stress leading to SI instances. It can be assumed that SI are the result of the reconstruction of defense mechanisms while working on insight, confrontation with the causes and consequences of the patients' own physical aggression towards the loved ones, the realization of the size of their grandiose thinking and the insight into its function, and the insight into the causes of resignation attitudes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Evaluation of the association between the occurrence of lower urinary tract symptoms in patients qualified for psychotherapy and the severity and profile of their neurotic personality disorders. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective analysis of questionnaires included in the medical records of 2,450 patients qualified for psychotherapy in 2004-2014 in terms of correlations between the symptoms of pollakiuria and unconscious urinary incontinence, and the global severity of neurotic symptoms (OWK), global severity of neurotic personality disorders (XKON) and abnormal values of 24 scales of the KON-2006 questionnaire. Correlations in the form of OR coefficients with 95% confidence intervals were estimated using logistic regression analyzes. RESULTS Lower urinary tract symptoms are associated with a significantly greater severity of neuroticism, both described by the global severity of symptoms (OWK) as well as by the global neurotic personality disorder index (XKON) and abnormal values of the KON-2006 questionnaire scales. The occurrence of both symptoms was associated with the following scales: 'Negative self-esteem' and 'Envy', the occurrence of pollakiuria - with the scales 'Feeling of being dependent on others', 'Demobilization', 'Conviction of life helplessness' and 'Feeling of lack of influence', the occurrence of unconscious urinary incontinence - with the scales 'Feeling of being alienated' and 'Exaltation' for both genders, and only in men 'Risk avoidance' (low 'Risk tendencies'), 'Conviction of life helplessness', 'Difficulties in interpersonal relations'. Extreme severity of pollakiuria was more strongly associated with many of the mentioned scales, and also slightly differently with other scales, e.g., in men - with the 'Sense of overload' and 'Imagination, fantasizing'. CONCLUSIONS Neurotic personality traits described by abnormal values of the KON-2006 questionnaire scales are associated with the presence (and also to some extent with the severity) of psychogenic lower urinary tract symptoms. Connections may be bi-directional - in some cases experiencing and self-description of personality traits may be secondary to suffering associated with pollakiuria and incontinence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation between lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and severity of depressive symptoms in patients treated for depression. METHODS 102 patients (43 males, 59 females) aged 20-67 (M = 46.1) treated for depression were included in this cross-sectional analysis. Depressive symptoms were assessed with the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) and Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology - Self Report (QIDS-SR). LUTS were examined with the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS). In order to analyze the impact of presented symptoms, both urological and psychiatric, on quality of life of analyzed individuals the 30-item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-30) was used. RESULTS The average IPSS score in women was significantly higher than in men (9.59 vs. 6; p = 0.04). Patients suffering from at least moderate depression assessed with QIDS-SR had significantly higher scores in IPSS (9.76 vs. 4.1; p = 0.002). Severity of all LUTS assessed with IPSS correlated with QIDS-SR score in examined men (p < 0.05). In women, the total IPSS score correlated with the QIDS-SR score (p < 0.05) and with the total GHQ-30 score (p < 0.05). Anumber of other significant (p < 0.05) correlations were observed between the total IPSS score and certain items' scores in the GHQ-30 both in men and women. CONCLUSIONS LUTS are common among patients with depression. There is a correlation between severity of depressive symptoms and LUTS. LUTS affect quality of life and well-being as well as cause marked distress in depressed patients. Comorbidity of LUTS and depression should draw attention of both psychiatrists and urologists and enhance interdisciplinary treatment approach. Further prospective and cohort studies are essential to reveal more details of the correlation between LUTS and depression.
