Košice, Slovakia, September 23-25, 2026

The Book of Abstracts from the 6th International Scientific Conference “Physical Activity, Health and Quality of Life”, organised by the Institute of Physical Education and Sport at Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice in cooperation with international partner universities, presents current scientific knowledge and research findings in the fields of physical activity, health, and quality of life. The publication contains peer-reviewed abstracts of scientific contributions authored or co-authored by 112 researchers from Slovakia and abroad. It covers a broad range of interdisciplinary topics, including determinants of physical activity, active lifestyles, health promotion, and disease prevention across different age and population groups. Particular attention is given to the physiological, psychological, and social aspects of physical activity, sports performance, diagnostics, recovery, and innovative approaches in sport. The contributions also address physical activity among children, adolescents, adults, and older populations, as well as nutrition, sedentary behaviour, mental health, and quality of life. Further topics include physical and sport education, educational practices, workplace-related health issues, and the broader social dimensions of sport. The interdisciplinary nature of the publication encourages the integration of knowledge from sport sciences, health sciences, education, and social sciences. The Book of Abstracts is intended for academics, researchers, doctoral students, university students, and practitioners interested in physical activity, health, and quality of life.

Heart Surgery for Medical Students provides a systematic and clinically oriented overview of the principal areas of cardiac surgery, intended primarily for sixth-year medical students preparing for the final state examination in surgery. It is based on the original Slovak edition, which has been translated, professionally updated, adapted to contemporary international medical terminology, and supplemented with a new chapter dedicated to heart transplantation. The textbook covers cardiopulmonary bypass, ischemic heart disease, valvular and aortic disease, cardiac arrhythmias, congenital heart disease, traumatic injuries of the heart and great vessels, mechanical circulatory support, and heart transplantation. Selected sections have been revised in accordance with current international clinical practice guidelines. The text emphasizes indications for surgical treatment, fundamental operative strategies, and principles of perioperative care. Its aim is to provide students with a concise framework for understanding the role of cardiac surgery in contemporary multidisciplinary cardiovascular care.

Miroslav Almáši  Nikolas Király   eds.

The conference proceedings of Porous Materials for Environmental Applications 2026 represent a collection of scientific and professional contributions presented at the international scientific conference held on 15–19 March 2026 in Białka Tatrzańska (Poland). The conference focused on current trends in the research of porous materials and their applications in environmental, catalytic, energy-related, and biomedical fields. The event provided an interdisciplinary platform for the exchange of the latest scientific knowledge in the design, synthesis, characterization, and practical utilization of porous materials.

Particular attention was devoted to their application in adsorption and separation processes, heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis, energy storage and conversion, as well as in biological and medical applications. The published abstracts reflect current challenges related to sustainable development, green technologies, and advanced materials solutions. The proceedings offer a comprehensive overview of the current state of porous materials research at the international level and document the dynamic development of this field with significant overlap into environmental chemistry, materials science, and chemical engineering.
