Abstract: The article "Changes in body weight in various population groups in Poland during the COVID-19 pandemic - a comparison of two cross-sectional studies" examines weight changes in Polish adults during the pandemic. It reveals that more individuals experienced weight gain in 2020 compared to 2021, with women being more likely to report weight gain than men. The study emphasizes the significance of factors like gender, age, education, and relationship status in determining weight changes during the pandemic, underscoring the need for targeted weight management strategies in vulnerable populations. Additionally, the document features a collection of research studies on diverse health behavior topics, including the impact of the pandemic on physical activity, eating habits, and body weight changes in different regions.
