    Irritable Bowel Syndrome is a much-researched functional gastrointestinal disease. The diagnosis and finding personalized therapy is a lengthy process. Our study aims to find out about the IBS patient’s search for solution: what specialists they turn to, what therapies they tried with what results, how strictly they follow specialists’ instructions, when do they start looking for a solution themselves, how much they trust the different specialists and what they think about their chances of recovery. We looked for volunteers with IBS disease on social platforms. From 45 volunteers, 27 submitted their responses to our survey. The results were evaluated with statistics done in Excel and SPSS: Pearson’s chi square, Fisher’s exact, standard deviation and distribution. Summary of results: there is a significant relationship between the onset of symptoms and the time when patients turn to a physician. With regards to the relationship between therapies applied and their efficacy on remediating symptoms, there was no significant relationship. Similarly, there was no significant relationship between strictly following the indications and their opinion about chances of recovery.

    Our anthropological research team deals with several aspects of artificially deformed skulls found in archaeological excavations of Northeast Hungary. The skulls were dated to the Hun-Germanic Period (5th-6th century AD). It is important to get to know the effect of artificial cranial deformation as deep as possible. Morphological and metric data of the skulls are described and documented, but further comparative analyses are generally not performed due to the relatively small number of cases and gender differences. In this study, we would like to propose a new, easy-to-apply numeric value: the relative difference (RD) number of distortion introduced by us. This relative difference number allows quantitative measures of the effect of artificial distortion on skull dimensions. Such a calculated relative numeric value, which enables and facilitates comparability, has not been used by researchers yet.
