ZAPAŽANJA DJECE O SPORTSKO - REKREATIVNIM AKTIVNOSTIMA ODRASLIH

Full Text Available In sports recreation (and physical education as a whole it is interesting to get answers on a number of questions relating to family impacts to physical activities of a teenager and adult population. Particularly interesting is to find out how a family can influence on young people in order to persuade them to go in for sports and indirectly how a family and young people can influence on an elder population to occupy themselves with sports and recreation activities. So far, this issue has not been worked out in details in our professional literature. In recent years, however, some partial research has been done, but only to the extent to avail "entering" in to the problem and make initial steps to research projects on a long-year basis. The data on this research have been obtained from 11 to 13 year-old population of both sexes, i.e. pupils attending class 5 and class 6 at six elementary schools in the town of Nikšić. The samples selected in this way certainly represent a real basis to confirm the obtained data correct and true. According to this children's sampling, the parents' regular weekly sports-recreation activity is not fully satisfactory, because in 31% of cases, fathers are preoccupied (although occasionally with some sports-recreation activity, while mothers' share is only 11,36%. According to this sampling results, parents' seasonal (summer/winter sportsrecreation activity is much more encouraging. In fact, while on holiday with their families, 86,82% of fathers go in for swimming and are also occupied with other water, or coast sports and recreation. Mothers' share is 78,63%. In winter conditions, the situation is a bit discouraging where 34,54% of fathers and 10,45% of mothers are equipped with skiing facilities but they occupy themselves with recreation skiing 8 to 10 days maximum in a season. The above mentioned data and the data taken out from the results of the research can be useful for creating more realistic social policy within organizations of sports recreation and also for indirect provision of prerequisites for more efficient family influence on regular sports and sports - recreation engagement of children and their parents (separately and unified. For a permanent and right involvement of children to sports and sports-recreation, it is very important that at least one parent was a sportsman or, even better, that he or she is still regularly preoccupied with sports recreation. Furthermore, regular sports recreation activities of elder population provide various positive effect to their health and their overall capabilities

Full Text Available Raziskovalno vprašanje (RV: V članku želimo raziskati upravljanje z vodnimi izgubami v javnih sistemih oskrbe s pitno vodo in ugotoviti, kakšne so vodne izgube v Sloveniji. Vprašanje je, ali so podatki o vodnih izgubah kakovostni. Namen: Opredeliti pojmovanje vodnih izgub v okviru zakonodaje, ki ureja oskrbo s pitno vodo in smernice glede vodnih izgub, načine in vidike poročanja o vodnih izgubah izvajalcev gospodarske javne službe ter preučiti kakovost podatkov o stanju vodnih izgub v letih 2010 in 2012. Metoda: Podatke smo primerjali po triangulacijski metodi, uporabljene so kvantitativne in deloma kvalitativne metode raziskovanja. Rezultati: Primerjava podatkov o vodnih izgubah za leti 2010 in 2012 kaže na signifikantne razlike, ki izhajajo iz nejasne zakonodaje. Ta ne predpisuje enoznačne, enotne definicije vodnih izgub. V opazovanem obdobju ni opredeljene enotne metodologije določanja vodnih izgub, ki bi omogočila primerjavo podatkov. Organizacija: Model upravljanja z vodnimi izgubami, opredeljen z enotno metodologijo in usklajeno zakonodajo, bo omogočil razumevanje stanja sistema in lažji postopek odločanja o potrebnih ukrepih za ciljno zmanjšanje vodnih izgub. Družba: Zagotavljanje odgovornosti izvajalcev gospodarske javne službe za doseganje ciljev pri oskrbi s pitno vodo s poudarkom na obvladovanju in zmanjševanju vodnih izgub ter višja kakovost dejavnosti oskrbe s pitno vodo so pomembni za lastnike, upravljavce in uporabnike. Originalnost: Tovrstne raziskave o vodnih izgubah še nismo zasledili. Omejitve/nadaljnje raziskovanje: Podatkov o vodnih izgubah vseh izvajalcev gospodarske javne službe ni mogoče pridobiti, zato je raziskava fokusirana zgolj na javno objavljene podatke iz resornega ministrstva in objavljenih statističnih podatkov. Dostop do celovitih podatkovnih baz v informacijskem sistemu ni omogočen.

Fenomen erozije cevi naoružanja / Gun barrel erosion

Full Text Available U radu su prikazana dosadašnja istraživanja erozije cevi. Trošenje cevi je neizbežan proces do kojeg dolazi pri svakom opaljenju. Erozija cevi može se definisati kao progresivna povreda ili oštećenje površine cevi i proširenje kalibra usled opaljenja, koja utiče na: gubitak ili pad početne brzine projektila, tačnost i efektivnost oruđa. Kao glavni uzročnici koji utiču na intenzitet erozije cevi opisani su termički, hemijski i mehanički faktori. Njihov uticaj prikazan je u interakciji cev-projektil-barutno punjenje. / An overview of research into gun barrel erosion is presented in this paper. The gun bore wear is an unavoidable process during normal firing. The wear can be defined as progressive damage of the bore surface and enlargement of the bore, ultimately resulting in loss in the muzzle velocity, range and accuracy. Thermal, chemical and mechanical factors are described as major factors of gun barrel erosion. The influence of these factors is presented in the interaction of gun tube - projectile - propellant.

New records of the Gannet Morus bassanus in Slovenia / Novi podatki o strmoglavcih Morus bassanus v Sloveniji

Directory of Open Access Journals (Sweden)

Genov Tilen

2014-11-01

Full Text Available Strmoglavec Morus bassanus je razširjen v Severnem Atlantiku in Severnem morju, predvsem pozimi pa del populacije vstopa tudi v zahodno Sredozemlje. V vzhodnem Sredozemlju je občutno redkejši, njegov status v Jadranskem morju pa ni povsem razjasnjen. V Sloveniji so bila doslej zabeležena tri opažanja. V pričujočem delu podajava dve novi opažanji strmoglavca v Sloveniji in kratek pregled pojavljanja na območju Jadrana. Prvič sva vrsto zabeležila 9. 6. 2014, 5,7 km od Pirana (45°34.161‘ N; 13°31.124‘ E. Šlo je za dve odrasli ptici in dva nezrela osebka v drugem koledarskem letu. Drugič, in sicer 4. 8. 2014, 5,5 km od Pirana (45°33.936‘ N; 13°30.943‘ E in le 480 m od predhodne lokacije, pa sva zabeležila en osebek v drugem koledarskem letu. V obeh opažanjih je bilo skupaj posnetih 71 fotografij. Oba podatka je potrdila Komisija za redkosti. Ti novi podatki imajo za Slovenijo velik pomen, saj gre za 1 4. in 5. opažanje te vrste pri nas; 2 prvi opažanji, dokumentirani s kvalitetnimi fotografijami in 3 prvo opažanje več osebkov ter odraslih ptic. Pojavljanje strmoglavcev na Jadranu je razmeroma redko, bolj pogosti so v severozahodnem delu regije. Globalna populacija je v zadnjem stoletju naraščala, zato utegnejo biti nova opažanja rezultat širitve areala, čeprav so lahko tudi posledica večjega opazovalnega napora v zadnjih letih. Ker so nezreli osebki manj prepoznavni kot odrasli, je možno, da so na tem območju pogostejši, kot smo mislili doslej. Prihodnje raziskave utegnejo dati odgovore na vprašanja statusa strmoglavcev v Tržaškem zalivu in severnem Jadranu ter morebitnih sprememb v pogostosti pojavljanja

Full Text Available The most natural form of human moving is running. The most common form of running is the one in a bee-line at the area without inclination. This form is realized by a successive activity of the moving mechanism in the line. There is a stereotype described in the symmetric Central Nervous System. In a case that direction should be changed, this complex form of moving become more complicated. Moving is asymmetrical now, the amplitude of extremity move in one side is not in accordance with the other one. The muscles of the one side neither function in the same direction nor with the same intensity like the ones at the other side. The change of direction is the result of the body's inclination. The aim of this study is to show quantitative relation between the angle of body's inclination and the running speed in a turn.

Terorizem je v vseh svojih pojavnih oblikah ena najhujših groženj globalnemu miru in varnosti, saj teroristična dejanja resno škodujejo uživanju človekovih pravic, ogrožajo socialni in gospodarski razvoj vseh držav ter spodkopavajo globalno stabilnost in blaginjo. Verski terorizem je prevzel vodilno vlogo ogrožanja sodobne varnosti, saj se verski fanatiki poslužujejo terorističnih dejanj, da bi dosegli lažne cilje svete vojne. Izvajalci terorističnih dejanj teh ne dojamejo kot konec svojega ž...

U Federaciji Bosne i Hercegovine, koja ima složeno političko uređenje (10 kantona i 79 općina), prikupljanje i korištenje prostornih podataka je zahtjevan posao. Zahtjevan je posao jer nadležnosti institucija nisu jasno razgraničene, a samim tim dolazi do dupliciranja podataka i konfuzije korisnika po pitanju točnosti podatka koji koristi.

Drugo, novim Zakonom o životnom partnerstvu omogućila im se većina bračnih prava, osim zajedničkog usvajanja djece. Ovo jasno ilustrira sukobljene trendove hrvatskog društva. S jedne strane, poboljšanja u položaju seksualnih manjina mogla su se uočiti još 1970.-ih i 1980.-ih, a nakon prekida tih po...

Teoretična izhodišča: Računalnik, mobitel in televizija so danes prisotni na vsakem koraku. Otroci in mladostniki jim posvečajo preveč časa, kar vodi do zasvojenosti, slabih socialnih stikov, zdravstvenih težav in opuščanja ostalih pomembnejših aktivnostih kot sta šola in šport. Zaradi manjšega gibanja se pojavljajo težave s prekomerno telesno težo kar vodi do debelosti. Sevanje mobilnih telefonov je prav tako nevarno, sploh med klicanjem, saj takrat sevajo z največjo močjo.

Raziskavo smo opravili v naravnem rezervatu Zlatnice, ki se nahaja v severozahodnem delu Prage (Češka republika. Vzpostavili smo sistem stalnih 1 m2 ploskev. Za obnovitev vegetacije z vrsto Calluna vulgaris sta bila uspešna tako paša kot košnja. Pokrovnost vrese se je povečala dve leti po začetku poskusa s pašo, na površinah s košnjo pa se je značilno povečala tretje leto in vrednosti so bile primerljive s pašenimi površinami. Redna paša je ovirala povečanje pokrovnosti zelišč, medtem ko se je njihova pokrovnost povečala po posamezni košnji. Košnja je tudi vplivala na povečanje pokrovnosti mahov. Poizkus je pokazal, da je slabo intenzivna paša ovac in koz verjetno najbolj primeren način obnove suhih vresav na plitvih, s hranili revnih tleh, po več kot 20 let od uničenja vresave. Košnja je bolj zahtevna, pojavlja pa se tudi možnost razraščanja nezaželjenih zelišč in lesnatih rastlin, kar zopet vodi v degradacijo vegetacije z vrsto Calluna vulgaris.

Full Text Available Die hier besprochene Monographie der Linguistin Anja Gottburgsen beschäftigt sich theoretisch und empirisch mit sprachbezogenen Geschlechterstereotypen, also mit unseren Vorstellungen darüber, ob und wie Männer und Frauen jeweils in spezifischer und distinkter Weise sprachlich kommunizieren. Im Theorieteil der Arbeit wird der aktuelle Stand der soziolinguistischen und sozialpsychologischen Diskussion zu Geschlecht, Sprachverhalten und Stereotypisierung kritisch referiert und die Bedeutung von sprachbezogenen Geschlechterstereotypen erläutert. Im empirischen Teil berichtet die Autorin die Ergebnisse von drei Fragebogen-Studien mit deutschsprachigen Studierenden. Es zeigt sich, dass bei Studierenden unabhängig von Geschlecht und Geschlechtsrollenorientierung stereotype Vorstellungen über das sprachliche Verhalten von Männern und Frauen verbreitet sind.

Full Text Available Često se postavlja pitanje opravdanosti investicija za unapređivanje sistema održavanja. Uvođenje strategija održavanja, kao što su RCM, TPM, održavanje prema stanju i sličnih, danas je svetski trend u usavršavanju sistema održavanja. Na primeru jednog modela taksi preduzeća, uz upotrebu metode simulacije, zasnovane na sistemskoj dinamici, izvršena je analiza efekata koje bi imalo uvođenje savremenih strategija održavanja u taj sistem. Došlo se do zaključaka koji su slični svetskim iskustvima. Najpre se mora izvršiti stabilizacija i pravilno dimenzioniranje sistema održavanja, da bi se zatim pristupilo usavršavanju sistema primenom odgovarajućih strategija. Uvođenje strategija održavanja odgovara prvenstveno sistemima kod kojih tehnička sredstva moraju neprestano da rade, odnosno imaju visok koeficijent eksploatacije. Prosečno, za svakih 10% smanjenja u broju otkaza, vremenu preventivnog održavanja i učestanosti preventivnih akcija, ukupan profit preduzeća raste oko 5%. Poboljšanja u domenu znanja održavaoca i kvaliteta rada donose narednih 5% povećanja profita. / Investments in the improvement of maintenance systems are often brought into question as to whether they are justified or not. Introducing maintenance strategies, eg. RCM, TPM, on-condition maintenance, etc., is nowadays a worldurde tendency in the improvement of maintenance systems. The simulation method based on system dynamics has been applied to a model of a taxi business in order to analyze the effects of introducing modern maintenance strategies into that system. The obtained results show good accordance with experiences wordurde. The stabilization and adequate dimensioning of the maintenance system should proceed the system improvement using adequate strategies.

Full Text Available Today modern companies are directed by buyers. Successful organizations are aware that the key issue is to satisfy buyers’ needs and to maintain good relationship with them. Such companies perceive problems and opportunities fast and act accordingly. In future only such companies that will be able to substitute mass production and generalized market approach with a flexible production and in addition to this constantly look for market gaps for their products and services will be able to survive. Further on such companies will be able to individualize their offer and in this way adjust and come closer to the buyer. However, the old hierarchical structure does not provide for that, therefore, we are nowadays talking about horizontal relationships, even among the suppliers, organizations and their buyers. The only organizational format providing for relationships and cooperation with buyers and suppliers on the one hand and increasing contentedness and successfulness of the employees on the other is a process format. The changes of the environment demand a thorough change of the traditional way of thinking and consequently the operation and organization of a company which wants to be successful or survive in new conditions.

Full Text Available Im vorliegenden Sammelband wird der Frage nachgegangen, welchen Beitrag die Gender Studies und die Medienwissenschaften zur Diskussion um die Lebenswissenschaften im Sinne der „sciences de la vie“ leisten können und sollen. Mit Schwerpunkt auf dem 20. Jahrhundert wird ein großes Feld abgesteckt, und es wird in sehr heterogenen Beiträgen versucht, Schnittstellen dieser drei Bereiche sichtbar zu machen. Wenngleich die gemeinsame Fragestellung dabei teilweise nicht leicht erkennbar ist, sind viele der Beiträge für eine weitergehende interdisziplinäre Auseinandersetzung anregend. Dies vor allem dort, wo es gelungen ist zu zeigen, wie sich das Wissen vom Leben mit der Kategorie Geschlecht etwa im Medium Film verschränkt und mediale Effekte erzeugt sowie biopolitische Dispositive mitgeformt oder irritiert werden.The collected volume at hand pursues the question as to what contribution Gender Studies and Media Studies can and should make to discussions in the life sciences (in the sense of the sciences de la vie. The volume sets up a large frame of reference in its emphasis on the 20th century and in very heterogeneous articles it attempts to tease out points of overlap between the three aforementioned areas. Although the common problem is not always easily determined, many of the articles might provoke further interdisciplinary examination. This is particularly the case where the volume is successful in showing how the knowledge of life, for example in the medium of film, is entangled with the category of gender and thus affects media and forms or disturbs bio-political apparatuses.

Resničnost te teze dokazujemo s statističnimi podatki ter tudi s pomočjo pregleda literature in predstavitvijo stališč različnih domačih avtorjev, ki so obravnavali to temo. Poleg obširnega pregleda tuje in domače literature na to temo predstavljamo tudi pregled zgodovinskih dejavnikov, za katere ocenjujemo, da so v preteklosti pomembno vplivali na vzpostavitev in uveljavitev današnjih stanovanjskih standardov. V sklepnem delu posebej poudarjamo danes prevladujoče napačno stališče, ki ga opredeljujemo kot najpomembnejši zaviralni dejavnik pri razmišljanjih o potrebnem izboljšanju slovenskih stanovanjskih standardov.

Full Text Available This paper presents the first regional research of the chronologies of sessile oak trees and definition of the local (master chronology of sessile oak in the area of Fruška Gora. In addition, the aim of this study is to determine the strength of the common signal in the growth of sessile oak and its dendroclimatological potential under the given conditions. The quality of the local series of radial increment (chronology and the strength of the common and climatic signals were evaluated using the following parameters: average mean sensitivity, expressed population signal, signal-to-noise ratio and the variance explained by eigenvectors in the procedure of analysis of the principal components. The results have shown that the obtained master chronologies are of satisfactory quality and reliability, and that they contain a sufficient general common ”signal”, which is a characteristic of all analyzed trees that can be processed in all dendroclimatological analyses. It was concluded that, under the investigated site conditions, sessile oak showed low to medium sensitivity of reaction to the modifications of environmental conditions in the past 90 years.

This paper reviews the data supporting the use of vildagliptin in monotherapy. Consideration based on baseline glycated hemoglobin levels and age is given to patient segments where metformin is not appropriate. In addition, although prediabetes is not an indication, this manuscript briefly reviews some of the existing data showing that the mechanisms at work in diabetic populations are active in patients currently classified as prediabetic, with impaired glucose tolerance or impaired fasting glucose. Finally, the rationale for vildagliptin dosing frequency in monotherapy is discussed. In summary, this review aims to define where in community practice the use of vildagliptin as monotherapy is most desirable, focusing on segments of the population with type 2 diabetes mellitus that might receive the greatest benefit from vildagliptin in the management of their disease.Keywords: vildagliptin, type 2 diabetes, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, monotherapy, elderly

Preobrazba v tržno gospodarstvo in ponovna uvedba lastništva zemljišč sta zahtevali nov, decentralizirani sistem odločanja, kar je neposredno vplivalo na zgradbo in obliko mest. Med urbanimi preobrazbami so prišle jasno do izraza spremembe v lokacijskih vzorcih trgovskih objektov v mestih, ki so ponazarjale različne vzorce prostorske organizacije postsocialističnih mest. V članku avtorja preučujeta in predstavita nekatere posebnosti te preobrazbe v Bukarešti, Budimpešti, Pragi in Sofiji pred padcem socializma in po njem. Na podlagi analize izbranih mest predstavita procese postsocialističnega prostorskega prestrukturiranja, pri čemer preučujeta spremembe njihovih središč, ki so povzročile razdrobljenost mest in razpadanje urbanega tkiva. V primerjalni študiji je poleg tega prikazano, kako se v mestih s podobno preteklostjo lahko pojavijo različni razvojni vzorci.

Full Text Available The foreign tree species, Alnus cordata/Loisel./Desf. (Italian alder, (Betulaceae/Loisel./Duby, not previously recorded in the dendroflora of Serbia, is described in this paper. Italian alder trees in an experimental plot in the area of Erdevik, aged 11 years, show good vitality and fast growth, and bear fruits since their 10th year. Tree heights are in range from 10.4 to 16.2 m, and diameters at the breast height range from14.6 to 34.9 cm. The morphological properties of leaves, fruiting organs (“cones” and male catkins are in concordance with the values in literature sources, although they show great variability. Since the time of plantation establishment, the absolute minimum air temperature in the nearby meteorological station of Sremska Mitrovica was -26.50C, so it can be assumed that the species is frost hardy. On the basis of the researched properties of Italian alder, it can be concluded that this species can be cultivated in Serbia as an ornamental in urban areas and as a fast growing species in forest plantations for biomass production.

Ker je javna participacija pogosto omejena le na dajanje pripomb na že pripravljene prostorske načrte, predvidevamo, da bi jo lahko izboljšali s pomočjo informacijskih tehnologij, in sicer z uporabo novih spletnih orodij. Ena takih novosti je splet 2.0 (ang. web 2.0, koncept, ki je bil prvič predstavljen v letu 2004 in je v svetovni splet prinesel veliko orodij, ki jih koristno uporabljajo socialna omrežja in različne spletne storitve kot participatorne storitve z velikim številom uporabnikov. V članku so analizirane možnosti za medsebojno interakcijo javne participacije in spleta 2.0. Predstavljene so zahteve javne participacije v postopkih prostorskega načrtovanja, osnovna orodja spleta 2.0 in njegove zmožnosti glede omogočanja participacije v procesih prostorskega načrtovanja. V prispevku je ugotovljeno, da so orodja spleta 2.0 zelo uporabna za vključevanje javnosti v procese prostorskega načrtovanja, vendar zahtevajo veliko predpriprav in dobro tehnično osnovo.

Im empirischen Teil berichtet die Autorin die Ergebnisse von drei Fragebogen-Studien mit deutschsprachigen Studierenden. Es zeigt sich, dass bei Studierenden unabhängig von Geschlecht und Geschlechtsrollenorientierung stereotype Vorstellungen über das sprachliche Verhalten von Männern und Frauen verbreitet sind.Linguist Gottburgsen presents both a theoretical and empirical analysis of speech-related gender stereotypes -of common ideas about “male” and “female” ways of speaking. Gottburgsen takes a critical look at current socio-linguistic and social-psychological literature on gender, language behaviour and stereotyping and explains the meaningof language-related gender stereotypes. She furthermore presents the results of three survey studies of German-speaking university students. According to these studies, university students, regardless of sex and of their ideas about gender roles, continue to have quite stereotypical views on “gender-appropriate” language behaviour.

Avtorica preučuje transformiranje mentorja, mentoriranca in družbenega okolja ter proces prenašanja znanja, pri tem pa poudari, da gre v mentorskem razmerju predvsem za skupno ustvarjanje novega znanja in delovanje, ki je gonilna sila učenja. V mentorskem razmerju dveh gre za komunikacijo in recipročnost v učenju, za prenos znanja, najpogosteje z neformalnim izobraževalnim programom. Gre pa seveda tudi za mentorski odnos. Mentorsko razmerje ima več faz, opozarja avtorica. Nekatere med njimi so bolj interaktivne in takrat je več recipročnosti, imamo pa tudi več kognitivne disonance in večje bogastvo čustev.

Provincializing and Localizing Core-Periphery Relations

Cilja Harders

2015-11-01

Full Text Available The paper engages engages with core-periphery conceptions because they are a useful "Denkfigur" in a time of increasing global interconnectedness. I argue that the core-periphery metaphor is a useful one because it provides us (1 with a relational tool of analysis and (2 with a focus on asymmetric power-relations. But it also has some serious limitations such as a tendency to be over-deterministic and to be too global in scale. In order to meet these limitations, I suggest to re-scale Prebisch, Amin and Wallersteins global conception of core and periphery to the local scale. I hold that we need to “provincialise” the core-periphery metaphor to borrow Chakrabarty’s (2000 famous term and to make the agency of local actors more relevant to our understanding of political dynamics in the Maghreb, Mashreq and Gulf region. I sketch how “provincialized” and “localized” ways of using the core-periphery metaphor could look like. This part builds on the main ideas Malika Bouziane, Anja Hoffmann and I developed in the introduction to our volume on “Local Politics and Contemporary Transformations in the Arab World” as well as my approach of a “state analysis from below”.

For these patients hypo- and hyperglycemia constitute two major complications associated with the profound changes in food pattern during the Ramadan fast, and efficacious treatment options with a low risk of hypoglycemia are therefore needed to manage their T2DM as effectively and safely as possible. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4 inhibitors modulate insulin and glucagon secretion in a glucose-dependent manner, and consequently a low propensity of hypoglycemia has consistently been reported across different patient populations with these agents. Promising data with DPP-4 inhibitors have now also started to emerge in patients with T2DM fasting during Ramadan. The objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the currently available evidence and potential role of DPP-4 inhibitors in the management of patients with T2DM fasting during Ramadan whose diabetes is treated with oral antidiabetic drugs, and to discuss the mechanistic basis for their beneficial effects in this setting. Keywords: dipeptidyl peptidase-4, incretin, type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypoglycemia

Full Text Available Zoe-Lydia Tsivos,1 Rachel Calam,1 Matthew R Sanders,1,2 Anja Wittkowski1 1School of Psychological Sciences, University of Manchester, Manchester, UK; 2Parenting and Family Support Center, University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia Abstract: Postnatal depression (PND has negative effects on maternal well-being as well as implications for the mother–infant relationship, subsequent infant development, and family functioning. There is growing evidence demonstrating that PND impacts on a mother’s ability to interact with sensitivity and responsiveness as a caregiver, which may have implications for the infant’s development of self-regulatory skills, making the infant more vulnerable to later psychopathology. Given the possible intergenerational transmission of risk to the infant, the mother–infant relationship is a focus for treatment and research. However, few studies have assessed the effect of treatment on the mother–infant relationship and child developmental outcomes. The main aim of this paper was to conduct a systematic review and investigate effect sizes of interventions for PND, which assess the quality of the mother–infant dyad relationship and/or child outcomes in addition to maternal mood. Nineteen studies were selected for review, and their methodological quality was evaluated, where possible, effect sizes across maternal mood, quality of dyadic relationship, and child developmental outcomes were calculated. Finally, clinical implications in the treatment of PND are highlighted and recommendations made for further research. Keywords: postnatal depression, infant development, intervention, dyad, mother–infant relationship, systematic review

If the patient has a severe, extended, or treatment-recalcitrant course of herpes zoster, this must be a red flag to search for underlying pathologies. Here, we report about a 64-year-old male patient with diabetes, who came to our emergency department because of general malaise, fever, chills, and a pronounced nuchal and facial swelling on the left side. Based on herpetiform-grouped vesicles and yellowish crusts, an impetiginized facial herpes zoster was diagnosed, and combined antiviral and antibiotic treatment was initiated. He was HIV negative. Despite intensified treatment, his situation worsened. We observed blasts in peripheral blood, but bone marrow biopsy was initially denied. Some days later after deterioration of his disease, he accepted further diagnostics. A myelodysplastic syndrome with blast excess (refractory anemia and blast excess II, RAEB II could be confirmed. The following translocations were detected: t(2;12(p13; q13 and t(6;9(p22;q34. REAB II has an unfortunate prognosis. Cytoreductive treatment was initiated by the hemato-oncologist.

The book contributes to the debate about racism and inter-culturalism as well as to the use of qualitative research methods within the scope of the theory of BOURDIEU. Racism and anti-racism are considered as a specific dimension of social inequality and, therefore, must be connected with a more comprehensive theory of social inequality such as BOURDIEUs concepts of habitus, field and capital. This allows for a different view on the phenomenon. According to this perspective, racism is not onl...

Bioetanol je postao atraktivno zamjensko biogorivo jer se proizvodi iz obnovljivih sirovina i ekološki je prihvatljiv. Upotrebljava se kao pogonsko gorivo i to kao hidrirani (96 % ili bezvodni (u mješavinama s benzinom. Bioetanol se proizvodi fermentacijom s kvascem S. cerevisiae ili nekim drugim mikroorganizmom iz ugljikohidrata kao što su jednostavni šećeri, škrob i celuloza. Nakon fermentacije, bioetanol se izdvaja i pročišćava destilacijom i dehidracijom. Sastav je propisan specifikacijama za primjenu u motornim gorivima. Uobičajeni usjevi, kao što su kukuruz, šećerna repa i trska, zasad su osnovne sirovine za proizvodnju bioetanola. Međutim, proizvodnja bioetanola iz ovih sirovina ne može zadovoljiti globalne potrebe za bioetanolom, zbog njihove primarne uloge u prehrani ljudi i životinja. Lignoceluloza je pogodna sirovina za proizvodnju bioetanola jer je široko rasprostranjena, obnovljiva i ne upotrebljava se u prehrani. Proizvodnja bioetanola iz lignoceluloznih sirovina je složen proces, koji se u mnogim aspektima razlikuje od proizvodnje iz šećernih ili škrobnih sirovina.

Angiogenesis is known to be a key pathogenic feature of psoriasis. Local and systemic elevation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A has been demonstrated in the skin and plasma of patients with psoriasis and is known to correlate with improvement following some traditional psoriasis treatments. A number of VEGF inhibitors are licensed for the treatment of malignancies and eye disease and isolated case reports suggest that some individuals with psoriasis may improve when exposed to these agents. The small number of cases and lack of unified reporting measures makes it difficult to draw generalizations and underline the heterogeneity of psoriasis as a disease entity. Though not yet licensed for the treatment of psoriasis in humans, experimental data supports the potential of VEGF inhibitors to influence relevant aspects of human cell biology (such as endothelial cell differentiation and to improve animal models of skin disease. Given the multi-factorial nature of psoriasis it is unlikely that VEGF inhibitors will be effective in all patients, however they have the potential to be a valuable addition to the therapeutic arsenal in selected cases. Current VEGF inhibitors in clinical use are associated with a number of potentially serious side effects including hypertension, left ventricular dysfunction, and gastrointestinal perforation. Such risks require careful consideration in psoriasis populations particularly in light of growing concerns linking psoriasis to increased

Methods: Data were pooled from eight clinical monotherapy trials including 2,340 previously drug-naïve patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who received vildagliptin monotherapy (50 mg once daily [n=359] or 50 mg twice daily [n=1,981]. The trials were all randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trials with a prespecified week 24 study visit. Results: Linear regression analysis of weight change after 24 weeks relative to baseline FPG showed an intercept of −2.259 kg (95% confidence interval −2.86, −1.66; P<0.0001 and a positive slope of 0.1552 kg (95% confidence interval 0.10–0.21; P<0.0001. Neutral caloric balance (no weight change was observed at a FPG of 14.6 mmol/L (263 mg/dL. Baseline FPG values below and above this threshold were associated with weight loss and weight gain, respectively. For instance, from this analysis, a baseline FPG of 8 mmol/L (144 mg/dL predicts a weight loss of 1 kg. Conclusion: The present analysis showed that treatment with vildagliptin results in a negative caloric balance when glucose levels are below the renal threshold at baseline.

U vezi s tim moguće je delovati u dva smera: zamenom konvencionalnih goriva alternativnim i konstrukcionim izmenama na motorima radi smanjenja emisije i potrošnje goriva. Jedna od mogućnosti konstrukcionog poboljšanja motora je i smanjenje mehaničkih gubitaka, koji kod današnjih konstrukcija još uvek imaju znatan udeo u gubicima, pogotovo na parcijalnim režimima. Treba naglasiti da kompleksni problemi smanjenja potrošnje goriva i emisije izduvnih gasova motora (vozila mogu da se reše samo spregom razvoja automobilske i naftne industrije. / Ecological trends and movements in the modern world grow stronger and more active, due to a real danger of Earth pollution. One of the main sources of pollution are IC engines and their influence on environment is significant. However, conventional combustion engines still are and will be dominant powering systems for numerous future applications. Two solutions are possible answers to this problem: first, the replacement of conventional fuels by alternative ones and second, modifications on the IC engine design in order to decrease fuel emission and consumption. One of the solutions for the improvement of IC engine design is the modification of engine parts or their design, with great influence on the decrease of mechanical losses, especially on partial rating. Therefore, it is important to say that complex problems of engine (automotive decrease of fuel consumption and exhaust gas emission can be solved only by simultaneous development of oil and engine (automotive industry.

The majority of food in the United Kingdom is purchased in supermarkets, and therefore, supermarket interventions provide an opportunity to improve diets. Randomized controlled trials are costly, time-consuming, and difficult to conduct in real stores. Alternative approaches of assessing the impact of supermarket interventions on food purchases are needed, especially with respect to assessing differential impacts on population subgroups. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of using the United Kingdom Virtual Supermarket (UKVS), a three-dimensional (3D) computer simulation of a supermarket, to measure food purchasing behavior across income groups. Participants (primary household shoppers in the United Kingdom with computer access) were asked to conduct two shopping tasks using the UKVS and complete questionnaires on demographics, food purchasing habits, and feedback on the UKVS software. Data on recruitment method and rate, completion of study procedure, purchases, and feedback on usability were collected to inform future trial protocols. A total of 98 participants were recruited, and 46 (47%) fully completed the study procedure. Low-income participants were less likely to complete the study (P=.02). Most participants found the UKVS easy to use (38/46, 83%) and reported that UKVS purchases resembled their usual purchases (41/46, 89%). The UKVS is likely to be a useful tool to examine the effects of nutrition interventions using randomized controlled designs. Feedback was positive from participants who completed the study and did not differ by income group. However, retention was low and needs to be addressed in future studies. This study provides purchasing data to establish sample size requirements for full trials using the UKVS. ©Anja Mizdrak, Wilma Elzeline Waterlander, Mike Rayner, Peter Scarborough.

Na taj način dobijena je nova kategorija UbS, tzv. neosetljiva UbS, kod kojih je verovatnoća neželjenog aktiviranja pod dejstvom spoljnih impulsa svedena na minimum. Suština rešavanja ovog problema je primena eksplozivnih materija koje su mnogo manje osetljive na spoljne uticaje u odnosu na standardne. Osnovni zahtev koji se pri tome postavlja je da taktičko-tehničke karakteristike ostanu na nivou ili budu bolje u odnosu na postojeća UbS. U radu je ukratko objašnjen koncept razvoja neosetljivih UbS i dat pregled najznačajnijih rezultata istraživanja u oblasti eksplozivnih materija koje zadovoljavaju zahteve za primenu u neosetljivim UbS. / According to severe environment protection and safety requirements, tendencies in development of modern munitions, besides of increasing reliability and efficiency, are directed to decreasing of danger during their processing, storing, handling and operating. In that manner the new category of munitions has been obtained, named insensitive munitions, with a minimum probability of unplanned activating. The best method for solving this problem is using of explosive substances that are more insensitive according to standard ones. The main requirement is the tactical and technical characteristics stay at the level or to be better according to the existing munitions. In this paper the developing concept of insensitive munitions is shortly explained and presented a review of most important research results of explosive materials that fulfill requirements for applying in insensitive munitions.

Full Text Available Non-wood forest products (NWFPs appear as a raw material base for a range of final products used in the pharmaceutical industry, food industry, etc. In addition, along with the expansion of organic production, the importance of the NWFPs market has drastically increased, both at the regional and international levels. The aim of this paper is the analysis of selected marketing mix elements (product, price, promotion and distribution in small and medium enterprises engaged in the purchasing, processing and marketing of NWFPs in the statistical region of Belgrade. The purpose of this research is to highlight the potential of NWFPs in commercial terms, on the basis of the knowledge obtained. The research object is the volume of purchase and marketing of the most important NWFPs in domestic and foreign markets. The research is based on a time series analysis through trend formulation, as well as the analysis of the selected marketing mix elements. An increase in the purchase of raw products can be observed over a six-year period, as a result of the enhancement in the purchase of forest fruits, while the purchase volume of other products remains largely the same. When product placement on the domestic market is concerned, an increase in the purchase of products can be observed, particularly in the last three years of the observation period, as a result of the increased placement of forest fruits on the market, while other products are subject to less fluctuation. The most common products in the statistical region of Belgrade are medicinal herbs, forest fruits and mushrooms. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br.

To better understand this variability in results, an exploratory physiological study was performed comparing the effects of helium/oxygen mixture (78%/22% to that of medical air.Methods: The gas mixtures were administered to healthy, asthmatic, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD participants, both moderate and severe (6 participants in each disease group, a total of 30; at rest and during submaximal cycling exercise with equivalent work rates. Measurements of ventilatory parameters, forced spirometry, and ergospirometry were obtained.Results: There was no statistical difference in ventilatory and cardiac responses to breathing helium/oxygen during submaximal exercise. For asthmatics, but not for the COPD participants, there was a statistically significant benefit in reduced metabolic cost, determined through measurement of oxygen uptake, for the same exercise work rate. However, the individual data show that there were a mixture of responders and nonresponders to helium/oxygen in all of the groups.Conclusion: The inconsistent response to helium/oxygen between individuals is perhaps the key drawback to the more effective and widespread use of helium/oxygen to increase exercise capacity and for other therapeutic applications.

Infiltrative disease of the intestine is an important cause of weight loss in the horse. Infiltration of inflammatory or neoplastic cells into the intestinal wall and intestinal fibrosis cause changes in the integrity of the intestinal wall. This may lead to altered intestinal permeability which can be measured using the contrast medium iohexol. To determine if iohexol intestinal permeability, as evaluated by serum iohexol concentration, could be used to differentiate between healthy horses and horses with infiltrative disease of the large colon. Prospective non-randomised controlled clinical trial. Six healthy adult horses and 4 horses with chronic infiltrative disease of the large colon were used in the study. Infiltrative disease was confirmed on post mortem in all cases, and included alimentary lymphoma and mycobacterial granulomatous enterocolitis. Following a 16-h fast, each horse was dosed with 1.0 ml/kg bwt of iohexol as a 10% solution via nasogastric intubation. Blood samples were collected at 0, 30, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, 420 and 480 min after dosing. Iohexol concentration was determined using HPLC-UV and the differences between the groups were analysed with a repeated measures ANOVA. There was a statistically significant difference in iohexol serum concentration between the diseased and nondiseased horses (P = 0.001). The overall difference in the mean iohexol concentration between the 2 groups was 6.07 (95% CI 3.19-8.96) μg/ml, however there appeared to be a trend towards increasing difference at later time points (240, 300, 360 min). The iohexol permeability test has potential as a diagnostic tool for estimation of intestinal permeability in horses with infiltrative intestinal disease. Further studies are warranted to determine whether the test can be used to determine the site of intestinal pathology, predict the prognosis and potentially evaluate the response to treatment.

Clinical evidence and mechanistic basis for vildagliptin's effect in combination with insulin

Full Text Available Anja Schweizer,1 James E Foley,2 Wolfgang Kothny,2 Bo Ahrén31Novartis Pharma AG, Basel, Switzerland; 2Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, East Hanover, NJ, USA; 3Department of Clinical Sciences, Lund University, Lund, SwedenAbstract: Due to the progressive nature of type 2 diabetes, many patients need insulin as add-on to oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs in order to maintain adequate glycemic control. Insulin therapy primarily targets elevated fasting glycemia but is less effective to reduce postprandial hyperglycemia. In addition, the risk of hypoglycemia limits its effectiveness and there is a concern of weight gain. These drawbacks may be overcome by combining insulin with incretin-based therapies as these increase glucose sensitivity of both the α- and β-cells, resulting in improved postprandial glycemia without the hypoglycemia and weight gain associated with increasing the dose of insulin. The dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-4 inhibitor vildagliptin has also been shown to protect from hypoglycemia by enhancing glucagon counterregulation. The effectiveness of combining vildagliptin with insulin was demonstrated in three different studies in which vildagliptin decreased A1C levels when added to insulin therapy without increasing hypoglycemia. This was established with and without concomitant metformin therapy. Furthermore, the effectiveness of vildagliptin appears to be greater when insulin is used as a basal regimen as opposed to being used to reduce postprandial hyperglycemia, since improvement in insulin secretion likely plays a minor role when relatively high doses of insulin are administered before meals. This article reviews the clinical experience with the combination of vildagliptin and insulin and discusses the mechanistic basis for the beneficial effects of the combination. The data support the use of vildagliptin in combination with insulin in general and, in line with emerging clinical practice, suggest that treating patients with

Hanover, NJ, 4Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, Rueil Malmaison, FranceAbstract: Vildagliptin is a potent and selective inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-4, orally active, that improves glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM primarily by enhancing pancreatic (α and β islet function. Thus vildagliptin has been shown both to improve insulin secretion and to suppress the inappropriate glucagon secretion seen in patients with T2DM. Vildagliptin reduces HbA1c when given as monotherapy, without weight gain and with minimal hypoglycemia, or in combination with the most commonly prescribed classes of oral hypoglycemic drugs: metformin, a sulfonylurea, a thiazolidinedione, or insulin. Metformin, with a different mode of action not addressing β-cell dysfunction, has been used for about 50 years and still represents the universal first line therapy of all guidelines. However, given the multiple pathophysiological abnormalities in T2DM and the progressive nature of the disease, intensification of therapy with combinations is typically required over time. Recent guidelines imply that patients will require pharmacologic combinations much earlier to attain and sustain the increasingly stringent glycemic targets, with careful drug selection to avoid unwanted adverse events, especially hypoglycemia. The combination of metformin and vildagliptin offers advantages when compared to currently used combinations with additive efficacy and complimentary mechanisms of action, since it does not increase the risk of hypoglycemia and does not promote weight gain. Therefore, by specifically combining these agents in a single tablet, there is considerable potential to achieve

The commercial AC samples were oxidized with different amounts of 10% and 15% sulphuric acid solutions. The acid treated AC samples were the loaded with copper sulphate with twofold impregnation by the incipient wetness method. The impregnated AC was tested in a packed bed in the gas filter with a diameter of 105 mm and a bed depth ranging from 29 mm to 41 mm under the following test conditions inlet concentration of ammonia was 3,5 mg/dm3, flow rate of 30 dm3/min at 70% relative humidity and ambient temperature. The breakthrough was detected qualitatively by the phenolphtalein indicator paper. The new impregnated AC reached the breaktrough time of 108 min for a 29 mm bed depth, and 160 min for a bed depth of 41 mm.

Full Text Available The purpose of the editors is to take up again the most relevant papers from the conference, "The Nature of Gender—The Gender of Nature", held in Kiel (Germany in November 2000. Various authors reflect on the current debate about the constructions and production of gender by referring to the special debate in natural and technical sciences. The female contributors test and criticise popular explications for gender differences. Other authors try to analyse the particular reasons why women might or might not be interested in technology and why women study technology or natural science less often than men. The reader can select from many interesting and extraordinary perspectives from different disciplines. Perhaps some of the contributions could be helpful in underscoring similar approaches in social science. URN: urn:nbn:de:0114-fqs0401314

The vast majority of the respondents were satisfied with ePrescriptions as a whole (1221/1274, 95.84%). Finnish pharmacy customers are satisfied with the recently implemented nationwide ePrescription system. They seldom have any difficulties purchasing medicines, renewing their ePrescriptions, or acting on behalf of someone else at the pharmacy. Customers usually keep up to date with their ePrescriptions by asking at the pharmacy. However, some customers are unaware of the practices or have difficulty keeping up to date with the status of their ePrescriptions. The provision of relevant information and assistance by health care professionals is therefore required to promote customers' adoption of the ePrescription system. ©Elina Lämsä, Johanna Timonen, Riitta Ahonen.

Evropski in slovenski okvir – izkušnje niso tako vsaksebi, da ne bi prepoznali večnih in vesoljnih zakonov človekovega dejanja in nehanja. Vendar: ali se še kdaj spomnimo na Pudelbal Feliksa Antona Deva (1732–1786, kjer je prek pustnega, maškeradnega plesa na pahljačo vseh mogočih tipov prižebljal ljubljansko »purgarijo« v literarni ringaraja, tako da je začetno lahkotno šopirjenje izzvenelo v nelahkotni antitezi o sprenevedanju, večnem laganju in podobnih značajskih odličnostih. Obolos baročnemu času je jezikovno bogastvo, kopičenje satirično-parodičnih oznak, ki jih je Dev nalepil paradirajočim osebkom na odru, iz katerih dehti moralna sprijenost. To je satira o malih dušah. In še brezkončni izvir, namreč briljantno pletenje Ivana Cankarja in mnogoobraznih satiričnih motivov, v dobršni meri izvirajočih iz politične odvisnosti in narodno-zavedne neurejenosti, tako da je v resnici »kostanj posebne sorte«, ki so se mu v različnih tonalitetah pridružila najboljša peresa prve polovice 20. stoletja. Cankarjevo satiropisje je veljalo »zlasti farizeju, hlapcu, dogmatiku, renegatu,« pravi Franc Zadravec, »maske snema z vsakršnih duhovnih in moralnih spak nekdanjih in sedanjih časov.«7 Satirik je po definiciji svojega početja brezkompromisni opazovalec človekovih dejanj. Izhodišče za tematske prispevke v tej številki Ars et humanitas je dalo polju satire, satiričnega, satirikov itd. odprte poti. Kakršno koli je že naše vsakdanje delo, vsi smo se s temi temami srečavali v raznih konceptualnih in oblikovnih izrazih in pri razrešitvi vprašanja največkrat ni zadoščal pogled samo ene stroke. To povezovanje disciplin je temeljna lastnost te revije, ki goji načelo medkulturnih in interdisciplinarnih perspektiv, zato so bili prispevki dolžni spoštovati le nosilno besedo »satira«.

Stuck between a rock and a hard place: the work situation for nurses as leaders in municipal health care

The paper further aims to identify the leaders’ vulnerability and strength at work in the current situation of shortage of manpower and other resources in the health care sector. This is seen through the lens of self-determination theory.Methods: Qualitative interviews were conducted with nine nursing leaders in nursing homes and home-care services, which, in part, capture the municipal health care service in a time of reform.Results: The nursing leaders are highly independent regarding their role as leaders. They act with strength and power in their position as superiors for their own staff, but they lack support and feel left alone by their leader, the municipal health director. The relation between the nursing leaders and their superiors is characterized by controlling structures and lack of autonomy support. As a consequence, the nursing leaders’ relations with subordinates and particularly peers, contribute to satisfy their needs for competence and relatedness, and, to some extent, autonomy. However, this cannot substitute for the lack of support from the superior level.Conclusion: The paper maintains a need to increase the consciousness of the value of horizontal support and interaction with peers and subordinates for the municipal nursing leader. Also, the need for increased focus on “the missing link” upward between the municipal health director and the

TGF-β plays an important role in tumorigenesis and contributes to the hallmarks of cancer, including tumor proliferation, invasion and metastasis, inflammation, angiogenesis, and escape of immune surveillance. There are several pharmacological approaches to block TGF-β signaling, such as monoclonal antibodies, vaccines, antisense oligonucleotides, and small molecule inhibitors. Galunisertib (LY2157299 monohydrate is an oral small molecule inhibitor of the TGF-β receptor I kinase that specifically downregulates the phosphorylation of SMAD2, abrogating activation of the canonical pathway. Furthermore, galunisertib has antitumor activity in tumor-bearing animal models such as breast, colon, lung cancers, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Continuous long-term exposure to galunisertib caused cardiac toxicities in animals requiring adoption of a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic-based dosing strategy to allow further development. The use of such a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model defined a therapeutic window with an appropriate safety profile that enabled the clinical investigation of galunisertib. These efforts resulted in an intermittent dosing regimen (14 days on/14 days off, on a 28-day cycle of galunisertib for all ongoing trials. Galunisertib is being investigated either as monotherapy or in combination with standard antitumor regimens (including nivolumab

Preučujeta njihove generacijske značilnosti, ki se lahko kažejo bodisi v podobnosti bodisi v različnosti članov neke generacije do drugih. Ugotovljene potrebe in zanimanja, utemeljene na generacijskih značilnostih, je mogoče, takšno je spoznanje avtoric, uporabiti kot podlago za oblikovanje vsebine medgeneracijskih izobraževalnih programov. Mladost je čas vstopa v odraslost, čas prevzemanja socialnih vlog odraslih, značilnost današnjih mladih generacij pa je, da v odraslost vstopajo drugače; mladi so prepuščeni individualizmu, močno odvisni od svojega referenčnega okvira, nekatere dejavnosti, nekoč značilne za odrasle, so se premaknile v čas mladosti, druge spet daleč v prihodnost. Anja Šajn in Dušana Findeisen obravnavata tudi značilnosti oseb v poznejših letih življenja, njihovo prehojeno življenjsko pot ter dogodke na tej poti. Na podlagi teorije življenjskega kroga avtorici označita življenje kot potovanje od rojstva do smrti. Osebne izkušnje, kultura, pomembni osebni in družbeni dogodki, način, kako smo izkusili te dogodke, vse to nas posameznike in posamezne generacije naredi drugačne od drugih ljudi in drugih generacij. Medgeneracijsko učenje in izobraževanje lahko prispevata (ni pa nujno, da je tako k medsebojnemu poznavanju in priznavanju generacij in posledično k družbeni trdnosti. Temeljita na potrebah in zanimanjih generacij in lahko krepita vezi med generacijami, kajti družbene vezi se danes rahljajo do takšne mere, da se vse bolj oglaša potreba celo po novi družbeni pogodbi.

Razdrobljenost intelektualnih horizontov pa je žal še veliko večja. Tudi znotraj same humanistike postaja drobljenje znanstvenega in raziskovalnega prostora na ozko specializirane stroke resna zavora v razvoju humanističnih ved. Ob vse večjem številu specializiranih, v pristopu teoretsko in diskurzivno strogo zamejenih znanstvenih publikacij, njihovih tvorcev in bralcev, je potrebno ponuditi več prostora za nove, interdisciplinarno zasnovane znanstvene revije. Ars & Humanitas hoče biti prav to – spodbuditi želi povezovanje družboslovnih in humanističnih strok, okrepiti dialog med različnimi teoretskimi orientacijami, odpirati izvirne pristope k obravnavi tem, opozarjati na aktualne vidike interferenc in skrbeti za promocijo humanistike tako v strokovnih krogih kot v širši javnosti. Zasnova revije je tridelna: v nosilnem tematskem bloku (študije bodo objavljene študije domačih in tujih strokovnjakov, ki bodo odražale različne pristope k izbrani temi, medtem ko bo odprti blok (varia namenjen prispevkom, ki so v določenem trenutku posebej aktualni ali ponujajo svež pogled na obravnavano temo. Tretji del bo namenjen recenzijam najnovejših in najaktualnejših znanstvenih publikacij s širšega humanistično družboslovnega področja. Posebno pozornost bo revija namenjala nacionalni in regionalni specifiki humanistike in družboslovja znotraj Evropske unije, pa tudi promociji nacionalnih kultur in umetnosti. Skladno s tem je eno od pomembnih poslanstev revije Ars & Humanitas krepitev zavesti o pomenu jezika v razvoju humanistike, saj jezik v humanističnih znanostih presega vlogo orodja sporočanja in je neločljivo povezan s samim razvojem humanističnih znanosti. Revija je zasnovana na večjezičnosti, posebno skrb pa bo posvečala slovenski humanistiki in razvoju strokovne terminologije v slovenskem jeziku. V trenutku, ko globalizacija nezadržno spodjeda same temelje kulturne in intelektualne različnosti, ko sodobni razvojni trendi sleherno

For years, tissue engineering approaches have been seeking a stable, axially vascularized transplantable bone replacement suitable for transplantation into the recipient bed with pre-existing insufficient conditions. For this reason, the arteriovenous loop model was developed and various bone substitutes have been vascularized. However, it has not been possible thus far to engineer a primary stable and axially vascularized transplantable bone substitute. For that purpose, a primary stable silica-embedded nanohydroxyapatite (HA bone substitute in combination with blood, bone marrow, expanded, or directly retransplanted mesenchymal stem cells, recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhBMP-2, and different carrier materials (fibrin, cell culture medium, autologous serum was tested subcutaneously for 4 or 12 weeks in the sheep model. Autologous serum lead to an early matrix change during degradation of the bone substitute and formation of new bone tissue. The best results were achieved in the group combining mesenchymal stem cells expanded with 60 µg/mL rhBMP-2 in autologous serum. Better ingrowth of fibrovascular tissue could be detected in the autologous serum group compared with the control (fibrin.

fitness from baseline between the groups, whereas waist circumference was reduced in the most inactive men within the intervention group (P=.01). Among completers with valid physical activity data (n=167), there was a borderline difference in the change in mean daily time spent in moderate to vigorous physical activity between the groups (11.9 min vs -9.1 min, P=.055, linear mixed model). Within the intervention group (n=87), baseline vigorous physical activity was inversely associated with change in moderate to vigorous physical activity during the trial (R=-.382, P=.01). The various functionalities related to physical activity of the gamified tailored mobile service were considered important. However, the compliance was limited. Within the current setup, the mobile service had no effect on anthropometry or fitness, except reduced waist circumference in the most inactive men. Among completers with valid physical activity data, the trial had a borderline positive effect on moderate to vigorous physical activity. Further development is needed to improve the feasibility and adherence of an integrated multifunctional service.

It was of interest to complement the existing real-life evidence with data from a randomized, double-blind, clinical trial.Clinical Trials Identifier: NCT01758380.Methods: This multiregional, double-blind study randomized 557 patients with T2DM (mean glycated hemoglobin [HbA1c], 6.9%, previously treated with metformin and any sulfonylurea to receive either vildagliptin (50 mg twice daily or gliclazide plus metformin. The study included four office visits (three pre-Ramadan and multiple telephone contacts, as well as Ramadan-focused advice. Hypoglycemic events were assessed during Ramadan; HbA1c and weight were analyzed before and after Ramadan.Results: The proportion of patients reporting confirmed (<3.9 mmol/L and/or severe hypoglycemic events during Ramadan was 3.0% with vildagliptin and 7.0% with gliclazide (P=0.039; one-sided test, and this was 6.0% and 8.7%, respectively, for any hypoglycemic events (P=0.173. The adjusted mean change pre- to post-Ramadan in HbA1c was 0.05%±0.04% with vildagliptin and -0.03%±0.04% with gliclazide, from baselines of 6.84% and 6.79%, respectively (P=0.165. In both groups, the adjusted mean decrease in weight was -1.1±0.2 kg (P=0.987. Overall safety was similar between the treatments.Conclusion: In line with the results from previous observational studies, vildagliptin was shown in this interventional study to be an effective, safe, and well-tolerated treatment in patients with T2DM fasting

šport in njegovo množično občinstvo v živo ter še bolj množično občinstvo, ki se zbira ob zaslonih novih medijev. Na vrhunski šport se navezujejo številne druge, manj spektakularne dejavnosti, od rekreacijskega športa do različnih načinov skrbi za zdravje in predvsem za privlačen videz telesa (in po fiziognomičnem sklepanju tudi duše in duha, ki jih vrhunski šport, zlasti njegove zvezde, promovirajo, reklamirajo in prodajajo kot športni oziroma zdrav način življenja. Ko bi se omejili samo na doping, bi hitro ugotovili, da je uporaba prepovedanih in zdravju nevarnih sredstev za hitro in učinkovito oblikovanje telesa in spodbujanje njegove učinkovitosti mnogo bolj razširjena na primer med mladimi v obdobju odraščanja kot med vrhunskimi športniki, ki so zdaj že nekaj let pod učinkovitim in vsestranskim nadzorom. O tem, ali ima šport kak lasten in izviren, celo človeško bistven pomen in vlogo, lahko kaj pove filozofija športa, disciplina, ki je precej mlajša od pedagogike športa – verjetno najstarejše humanistične discipline o športu, pa tudi od psihologije in sociologije športa. Kot disciplina se je razmahnila šele v šestdesetih letih prejšnjega stoletja, zato je šlo sprva zlasti za ukvarjanje z definicijo športa in dokazovanje filozofske pomembnosti športa. Pri prvem je bila seveda vodilna anglosaška analitična filozofija športa, pri drugem pa je največ izhodišč ponujala in še ponuja fenomenološka smer v filozofiji. Razlikovanje med igro, ki je imela v filozofiji vsaj od Friedricha Schillerja dalje svoje vidno mesto, in tekmo (če angleška play in game tako prevedemo, je tu ključnega pomena, saj pojmovanja o tem, kaj je šport, po eni strani ožijo območje pojma na tekmovalne igre, ki potekajo po splošno sprejetih pravilih in pod okriljem ustreznih športnih institucij, po drugi strani pa ga širijo daleč prek zgolj tekmovalnega športa na vse igrive dejavnosti, pri katerih gre za telesno gibanje, ne glede na

osnovu analize opterećenja izrađen je matematičko-mehanički model stabilnosti višecevnog lansera raketa pogođenog u neposrednoj blizini trenutno-fugasnim projektilom. Dobijeni rezultati ukazuju na zavisnost stabilnosti lansera od udaljenosti eksplozije, tipa eksplozije i mase eksplozivnog punjenja. Kao granični uslov borbene žilavosti lansera usvojen je uslov početnog prevrtanja lansera i narušavanja pouzdanog držanja rakete u lansirnoj cevi. Radi uprošćavanja prikazanog modela izvršen je proračun kinetičke energije efikasnog parčeta koje deluje na lanser.

Full Text Available Vežba ruskih i srpskih pilota BARS 2016 i Slovensko bratstvo 2016. Pripadnici naših oružanih snaga, a posebno RV i PVO, od iskusnih ruskih pilota, uče nove lekcije o upotrebi savremenih aviona. Razvoj vojne opreme u svetu, naoružanja i druge tehnike zahteva nova shvatanja odbrane zemlje a zaostajanje se može sprečiti osavremenjavanjem naših oružanih snaga, kao i uvežbavanjem pripadnika Vojske Srbije u novim taktičkim postupcima i pripremanjem za eventualne nove forme suprotstavljanja agresiji. Uz međunarodnu saradnju i sticanje novih iskustava naša vojska osposobljena za učešće u multinacionalnim vojnim snagama. Vežba srpskih i ruskih pilota BARS 2016, nametnula se kao osnovni zadatak nakon nabavke dva aviona MIG-29 i helikoptera MI-17. Ne samo radi upoznavanja letnih i borbenih osobenosti tih letelica, već i radi ovladavanja taktičkom upotrebom u složenim borbenim dejstvima. Nesumnjivo je da ruski piloti poseduju veoma dragoceno iskustvo u presretačkim dejstvima sa letelicom MIG-29, kao i u vazdušnoj borbi. Ovaj avion ima izuzetne letne mogućnosti i pod veštom pilotskom rukom može da izvede veoma složene manevre kojima se ostvaruje prevlast u vazdušnom prostoru i pobeda u vazdušnoj bici. Zbog toga se vežba ruskih i srpskih pilota BARS 2016 može posmatrati, a valja je prvenstveno i razumeti kao značajan napredak u ovladavanju osnovnim savremenim borbenim postupcima u obezbeđivanju vlastitog vazdušnog prostora, kontrole i suprotstavljanju agresivnim dejstvima eventualnog protivnika. Uz to, ovo je bila izvanredna prilika da se naši pripadnici RV i PVO obučavaju za spašavanje oborenih pilota. Vežba „Slovensko bratstvo 2016”, koja je usledila nakon zajedničkog uvežbavanja pilota Rusije i Srbije, doprinela je vojno-taktičkom osposobljavanju pripadnika Vojske Srbije za efikasno delovanje u protiv-terorističkoj borbi. Na toj vežbi učestvovali su pripadnici ruskih i beloruskih specijalnih snaga, kao i

Full Text Available Hidraulični sistemi mobilnih mašina su često kontaminirani čvrstim česticama. Čvrste čestice povećavaju intenzitet abrazivnog habanja hidrauličnih komponenata, i čine jednim od glavnih uzročnika otkaza sistema. U radu je dat prikaz reprezentativnog primera uticaja čvrstih čestica na povećano habanje delova hidrauličnog čekića bagera u eksploatacionim uslovima bagera u cementnoj industriji. Uvod Kontaminacija radnog fluida hidrauličnog sistema, jedan je od najvećih neprijatelja mobilnih mašina. Na mobilnim mašinama, koje se obično koriste u kontaminiranoj sredini, potrebno je pravilnim projektovanjem zaštititi hidraulični sistem posebno od eksterne kontaminacije. Uticaj kontaminanata na rad i pouzdanost hidrauličnih komponenata, a time i hidrauličnih sistema, može značajno da smanji planirani eksploatacioni vek. U radu je dat prikaz uticaja kontaminacije radnog fluida hidrauličnog sistema bagera preko radnog dela, hidrauličnog čekića. Uočeno je da zbog loše konstrukcije čekića i nepravilnog izbora povratnog filtera u hidrauličnom sistemu bagera,  u toku rada dolazi do prodora kontaminanata u vidu čvrstih čestica koje dovode do povećanja habanja radnih delova hidrauličnih komponenata (prvenstveno pogonske hidraulične pumpe kao i radnih delova hidrauličnog čekića. Da bi se shvatio uticaj kontaminacije hidrauličnog ulja čvrstim česticama, u radu je priložena foto-dokumentacija kritičnih delova pojedinih komponenti koje su oštećene. Takođe, izvršena je ekonomska analiza koja ukazuje na potrebu da se na mobilnim mašinama izvrši adekvatno filtriranje hidrauličnog fluida. Opis rada hidrauličnog sistema čekića Dat je opis jednog radnog ciklusa hidrauličnog čekića. Radni proces izazivanja udaraca čekićem zahteva kontinualno ponavljanje prethodno opisanog ciklusa. Iz navedenog se vidi da je rad hidrauličnog čekića veoma dinamičan ciklus kretanja određenih delova čekića, koji da bi

Математическая модель, описанная в данной работе основана на полной зависимости скорости процесса десорбции и энергии активации от температуры. Данная модель также отражает последовательность этапов процесса десорбции. Настоящая модель кинетики процесса десорбции этанола может значительно улучшить технологию производства биоэтанола и уменьшить производственные затраты. / U ovom radu proučavana je kinetika desorpcije etanola prethodno adsorbovanog na ugljeničnom molekulskom situ CMS-3A. Glavni izvori bioetanola su fermentabilni šećeri, kukuruz i lignocelulozni otpadni materijal. Proizvedeni bioetanol sadrži određenu količinu vode, a da bi se prečistio koriste se razne separacione metode koje još nisu dovoljno ispitane. Glavni problem pri prečišćavanju bioetanola je visoka cena, kao i znatan utrošak energije koji predstavlja više od 50% energije koju bioetanol proizvodi. Selektivna adsorpcija etanola sa zeolita znatno smanjuje utrošak energije pri proizvodnji. Nažalost, ova metoda je veoma spora. Radi poboljšanja kinetike desorpcije koriste se različite tehnike, koje nisu dovoljno ispitane. Jednu od praktičnijih i jeftinijih metoda koja se koristi pri prečišćavanju bioetanola predstavlja desorpcija etanola sa ugljeničnog molekulskog sita, pri čemu voda ostaje zadržana na ugljeničnom molekulskom situ. Međutim, ova metoda nije dovoljno ispitana, a radi poboljšanja proizvodnje (brzine proizvodnje potrebno je poznavati kinetiku desorpcije etanola sa zeolita . Malo je naučnih radova i literature koji

Поэтому рециклирование оксида иттрия из вторичных ресурсов, таких как: красный шлам, покрытие для керамики и использованные материалы в производстве люминесцентных ламп имеет большое значение. Основной целью данной работы является изучение кинетики растворения иттрия с соляной кислотой из отходной керамической пыли. / Itrijum je srebrnasti prelazni metal sa hemijskim svojstvima sličnim lantanoidima. Zbog ovih sličnosti itrijum pripada elementima retkih zemalja. Itrijum i itrijumoksid koriste se u fluoroscentnim lampama, u proizvodnji elektroda, u elektronskim filterima, superprovodnicima i kao dodatak u različitim materijalima radi poboljšanja njihove stabilnosti. Veliki deo itrijuma dobijen je iz njegovih minerala kao što su monazit [(Ce,La,Th,Nd,YPO4] i ksenotim YPO4, Prisustvo radioaktivnih elemenata torijuma i urana, zajedno sa itrijumom, predstavlja teškoću u dobijanju itrijumoksida iz ruda i koncentrata. Regulisanje zaštite životne sredine je sve strože i povećava rizik u njihovom snabdevanju. Zbog svega toga recikliranje itrijumoksida iz sekundarnih izvora, kao što su crveni mulj, prevlake u keramici i istrošeni materijali u fluoroscentnim lampama, ima veliki značaj. Osnovni cilj ovog rada jeste da prouči kinetiku rastvaranja itrijuma sa hlorovodoničnom kiselinom iz otpadnog praha keramičkih materijala.

Jedna od njih je i razvoj ozbiljnih igara koje simuliraju rad realnih poslovnih okruženja.

Njihov interaktivni aspekt dovodi do visoke uključenosti samih učesnika u aktivnosti igre, pa one više nemaju svrhu isključivo zabave već postaju ozbiljan alat za učenje. Od klasičnih zabavnih igara odvaja ih prvenstveno drugačiji cilj, tj. mogućnost da se učesniku igre, pored zabave, pruži i edukativna komponenta. Takođe, učesnik nije pasivni igrač već svojim odlukama i postupcima direktno može uticati na tok igre, dovodeći do dobrih ili loših rezultata.

der Ausgabe 1/2013 wird dabei im Sinne der ersten dieser Fragen von Anja Klimsa eröffnet, die den Problembereich der Prävention in der Medienpädagogik vor Augen führt und dabei mit allem Nachdruck betont, dass heute nicht mehr der zu normierende, zu kontrollierende und mit Mängeln belastete Mensch im Mittelpunkt der Pädagogik steht, sondern die aktiven, emanzipierten und mündigen KompetenzträgerInnen. Angesichts der Unverbindlichkeit von Normenstandards hebt Klimsa so hervor, dass in der Trias von technologischer, normativer und handlungsorientierter Medienpädagogik einzig die letztere Möglichkeiten bietet, den Anforderungen der Medienprävention zu genügen. Denn nur jene medienpädagogischen Angebote, die im Sinne eines praxeologischen Empowerments die Teilnehmenden als bewusst handelnde AkteurInnen begreifen, die selbst ihren Raum gestalten, ihre Ziele setzen und ihre eigenen Handlungen auch bewerten, lassen sich als sinnvolle präventive Medienpädagogik umsetzen. Damit rücken die RezipientInnen – auch im Unterrichtsraum – ins Zentrum von Theorie und Praxis und können so im Sinne aktiver und partizipativer Medienarbeit eingebunden werden. Inwiefern mithin die handlungsorientierte Medienpädagogik jenseits der normativen Medienpädagogik zu einer didaktischen Norm werden könnte, bleibt zu diskutieren.Norm Friesen untersucht dann in seinem Beitrag unterschiedliche Normierungen und Modellierungen der Sozial- und Kulturtechniken des Sprechens und Schreibens bzw. der Sprache und der Schrift, die (historisch vor allem in zwei Paradigmen erschienen sind: im rationalistischen (universalistischen und schriftzentrierten Modell, dass von Descartes bis Chomsky wirksam war und ist, und im romantischen (am Ausdruck und dem Sprechen orientierten Modell, dass wir vor allem mit Rousseau verbinden.
