Camelina has been used from ancient times, but recently has re-emerged as a valuable plant with the potential for successful replacement of conventional oilseed crops. The utilisation of camelina and its by-products in animal feed is a matter of scientific study due to their excellent nutritional potential. The present study aimed to investigate the nutritive value of two Serbian camelina seed genotypes (NS Zlatka and NS Slatka) as a potential alternative to commonly used oilseed crops in animal feeding. For that purpose proximate composition, fatty acid profile, amino acid profile and tocopherols were analysed. The study also included the investigation of the content of anti-nutritive compounds that can adversely affect the nutritional value of feed. The results showed that camelina seeds had a high amount of proteins (around 28%), amino acids and gtocopherols. Camelina genotypes were characterized by unique fatty acids composition, with its oil consisting of approximately 57% polyunsaturated fatty acids, of which the highest proportions were a-linolenic acid (~37%) and linoleic acid (~17%). An optimal ratio of n-6 and n-3 fatty acids (0.5) was also reported in this study. The concentration of anti-nutritional factors and heavy metals in camelina seeds was below the maximum set limit for feedstuff. To conclude, the investigated Serbian camelina genotypes can be used as a valuable source of proteins, essential fatty acids and tocopherols in animal nutrition and has a great potential to replace conventional oilseeds.

In this work we show the results of the research aimed at establishing the extent to which educators and parents of the preschool-age kids in Central Serbia and Kosovo and Metohija know the Serbian folk lullabies and use them to send kids to bed. The research results point to the exceptional educational effectiveness and meaning of the folk lullabies but also to their underutilization for both the family-wise and system-wise education and upbringing of the preschool-age kids. We found that the teachers and parents of the preschool-age kids do sometimes sing the traditional folk lullabies while sending kids to bed, can sing a few traditional folk lullabies, and are more aware of the contemporary lullabies instead. We learned that the teachers and the parents of the preschool-age kids do not know the traditional folk lullabies sufficiently enough and therefore do not use them accordingly within the practice, which was the initial hypothesis of the research. The teachers and the parents of the preschool-age kids are interested in learning about the traditional folk lullabies by taking part in the seminars, which would contribute to a greater presence of this type of content within educational and upbringing practice. The conclusion states the necessity for envisioned strategy to promote and familiarise the teachers and the parents with the traditional folk lullabies. There is a need for an instructional booklet containing the selected examples of the folk lullabies, for familiarizing the teachers and the parents with its historical and pedagogical value, and for training them to perform these lullabies. That way they would understand the constructive role the lullabies play at the upbringing, educating, and shaping the national identity.

Introduction: Surgical treatment of urolithiasis in children is quite complex and specific due to certain anatomical and functional features of childhood. Methods of surgical treatment at this age are: extracorporeal lithotripsy (ESWL), intracorporeal (endoscopic) lithotripsy - pneumatic and laser, percutaneous nephrolithotripsy (PCNL) and open surgery. Aim: The aim of this study was evaluation of the effects of ureterorenoscopy and endoscopic lithotripsy in children, as methods of minimally invasive surgical treatment. Material and methods: The retrospective study was conducted at the Institute for Mother and Child Health Care of Serbia "Dr Vukan Cupic" in Belgrade from 2010 to 2020. The study included 112 patients (50 boys and 62 girls) aged 1-18 years with urolithiasis, treated by endoscopic (laser or pneumatic) lithotripsy. The retrospective study was conducted at the Institute for Mother and Child Health Care of Serbia "Dr Vukan Cupic" in Belgrade from 2010 to 2020. The study included 112 patients (50 boys and 62 girls) aged 1-18 years with urolithiasis, treated by endoscopic (laser or pneumatic) lithotripsy. Results: After one ureterorenoscopy, the calculus was successfully disintegrated in 87 (78%) patients: in the renal pelvis in 22 (79%), in the upper pole calices of the kidney in 14 (100%), in the lower pole calices in 10 (50%), in the proximal segment of the ureter in 10 (83%), in the distal segment of the ureter in 27 (79%), in the bladder in 4 (100%) cases. In 19 (17%) patients the second intervention was necessary: in the renal pelvis in 28 (100%), in the upper pole calices in 14 (100%), in the lower pole calices in 14 (70%), in the proximal segment of the ureter in 12 (100%), in the distal segment of the ureter in 34 (100%) and in the bladder in 4 (100%) patients. Conclusion: The primary treatment of pediatric urolithiasis is ureterorenoscopy in combination with pneumatic or laser lithotripsy. It is successfully used in all segments of the urinary tract. The procedure is partially limited in the lower pole calices of the kidney, due to anatomical circumstances and mechanical limitations of the instruments.

The subject of this work is a music-pedagogical activity by Danica Krstić from 1903 to 1940. The academic publications state a year of 1905/06 as a beginning of her pedagogical contributions. In addition, the work provides a multitude of a concrete data on her music and pedagogical activities. By exploring a development of piano musicians education in Serbia, in the first half of the twentieth century, we establish that the work and contributions of Danica Krstić were insufficiently researched. Her contribution to the affirmation of young pianists and future piano pedagogical experts, and the improvement of concert related activity, are proven by this work numerous facts. She received many awards and testimonials for her efforts to advance Belgrade's music life in the first half of the 20th century. This research goal is to emphasize facts which place Danica Krstić a key piano pedagogical and playing artist, who to a large extent lead to systematised piano teaching and a work well organized within music educational institutions. By analysing the period of Danica Krstić music and pedagogical activity we conclude it has been intense and fruitful. We point out previously insufficiently explored professional activities of this influential piano pedagogical contributor, and believe in opportunity for a further research and analysis. We suggest exploring the plan and program for the piano teaching during that period, the contents of exams and concert programs, methods used while working with pianists and piano pedagogical experts departments, and teaching the blind and sight impaired students.

The aim of this paper is to determine the differences in situational performance of football goalkeepers depending on the outcome of the match, based on the semi-final and final matches of the Champions League, using the method of comparative analysis of the manifestation of goalkeeper’s tactical elements. The analysis was conducted in the semi-final and final matches of the Champions League in the 2016/2017 football season. The paper analyzes the situational elements of the goalkeepers’ techniques in the Champions League finals. For the purpose of the research, an observation sheet was formed based on the previous research and personal experience of the author, which was entered into the application "Dartfish EasyTag". Twenty variables were entered into the observation sheet, which are classified into the goalkeeper’s defensive and offensive elements. Video games were downloaded from the Internet, and the analysis was carried out with the help of a portable device, in the "Dartfish EasyTag" application. The results obtained were processed by means of descriptive statistics - total value and difference. After the complete survey, the number of overall situational activities of the goalkeeper is not dependent on the outcome of the match.

The aim of this research was to summarize the relevant literature on wrist injuries in gymnasts and to determine the prevalence of injuries based on a systematic review of previous research. In sports gymnastics, the upper extremities are the bearers of the whole body, which leads to consequences such as wrist injuries. The types of injuries are different, depending on its excessive use. The combination of a period of rapid growth and intensive training creates the conditions for gymnasts to be more prone to injuries, especially wrist injuries. Electronic search of papers was performed in databases: KoBSON, PubMed and Google Academic, and the studies were published in the period from 2010 to 2020, while a descriptive method was used to analyse the obtained data. Based on the database search, 14 studies met the criteria. Subjects who participated in questionnaires and experiments and different types of corrective treatment, sought to prevent further progression of the injury, and most subjects made major progress in suppressing or completely regressing their wrist injury. Raising awareness of the existence of this injury is of great importance in sport gymnastics, so early detection and prevention of injury is crucial.

The study was conducted to identify differences in bilateral coordination between boys and girls in the first grade of primary school. The sample consisted of 30 first grade students, at the age of 7 years ± 6 months. The children were divided into two groups consisting of boys (14) and girls (16). The level of the children’s bilateral coordination was assessed using the Bilateral Coordination (7 variables) subtests that are part of the BOT-2 - the Bruininks-Oseretsky Motor Proficiency Test Battery. The tests are used as a standardized measure of the level of motor skills in children. The obtained data was processed in the SPSS 19 statistical programme, and the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test was used to determine differences in bilateral coordination. After processing the data, it was noted that there are differences in bilateral coordination between boys and girls, but that they were not statistically significant. For more reliable results and, therefore, more conclusive results and conclusions, it is necessary to perform tests on a larger sample of children.

Introduction. Esophageal achalasia is a neurodegenerative motility disorder, which is characterized by ineffective or absent esophageal peristalsis and the lack of hypertonic lower esophageal sphincter relaxation. Achalasia causes failure to thrive in children and can have serious respiratory complications. Achalasia is a very rare condition in pediatric population, and usually misdiagnosed as gastroesophageal reflux. The treatment of choice is Heller esophagocardiomyotomy. The aim of this paper is to present a rare case of a two-year-old child with achalasia, diagnostic procedures, and successful operative treatment. Case outline. The patient´s problems started at the age of six months, with audible breathing and respiratory stridor. The child was admitted at a local hospital at seven months of age, dismissed with dietary advices, again admitted at the age of 19 months, and transferred to our institution. Upper gastrointestinal series and computed tomography revealed findings characteristic for achalasia, and on esophagoscopy exam there was no opening of lower esophageal sphincter and cardia on insufflation. Pneumatic dilation was performed with temporary improvement. Laparotomic Heller esophagocardiomyotomy with Dor partial fundoplication was successfully performed. Conclusion. Achalasia is a very rare condition in infants and young children. There is often a delay when establishing the correct diagnosis. Upper gastrointestinal series and endoscopic exam are most reliable methods to detect achalasia. Pharmacological treatment, intrasphincteric injection of botulinum toxin and pneumatic dilations are not efficient methods, especially in small children. The method of choice in the treatment of achalasia is Heller esophagocardiomyotomy with partial fundoplication.

The purpose of this systematic review is to point out the application of the Fitlight trainer system in sports. The following electronic databases were used to search the literature: Google Scholar, PubMed, Medline, Mendeley, 2014-2020. Following the selection procedure according to the relevant criteria, 22 studies were selected as fit to needs of this systematic review. A review of researches that used the Fitlight training system in sports has revealed a rather heterogeneous selection of topics. The results obtained are classified according to the sports in which the research was conducted. The results summary provided us with the insight into the multiple uses of the Fitlight system in sports as a training and measurement tool. It can be used in both individual and team sports. It can test sensory-cognitive and various motor skills: reaction speed, speed of single movement, speed of running, agility. Based on all of the information provided, the possibility of multiple applications of the Fitlight system in sports was highlighted.

The aim of this review paper is to determine the significance of game interruptions for scoring a goal during a football match by providing a detailed analysis of the relevant literature. The collection of compiled research articles covered the period between 2000 and 2018. The following electronic databases were used to search the relevant literature: PubMed, MEDLINE, Google Scholar, EBSCO, all referring to the period from 2000 to 2018. The search included both male and female players of different age categories. Scientific papers that were excluded from this analysis are the ones written in another language, those presenting results from the training sessions, but not from the competition matches, and the papers which did not analyze game interruptions. The results show statistically significant correlation between game interruptions and scoring a goal. The most goals were scored from free kicks, followed by corner kicks. About 30% of the goals from different competitions and games were achieved after a set play. The factors that have the highest effect on scoring goals after a set play are the number of players in the wall, a distance from the goal and the number of players in the field between the goalkeeper and the position of the free kick. The data showed little or no differences, expressed in percentages, in terms of correlation between male and female players, including both senior and junior categories. Game interruptions have a significant impact on scoring a goal. They are part of the standard game situation and as such they require special attention during analysis.

This work elaborates on a didactic and methodical qualities of the book A Theory of a Notation Singing by Isidor Bajić. As a literature for elementary music education, it has been initially published in 1904, under the title A Theory of an Accurate Notation Singing. After the first, then came the second amended edition in 1912 named A Theory of a Notation Singing. At the beginning of the twentieth century, there were no music books nor instructions approved by the Serbian Ministry of Education that could serve as notation singing literature. Because of that, Isidor Bajić arranged for a book with elementary theoretic and practical basis of solfege education and music theory. The contents had been grouped into sections of basic pedagogy of accurate notation singing. The main courses of the book encompass music theory, rhythm, melody, and the basis of vocal singing technique. This book is not included in the recommended literature for solfege education and music theory for the elementary music education in Serbia. Based on that, the aim of this work is to highlight possible usability and implementation of one of the first methodological books for a notation education within the Serbian language realm. The implementation of the book A Theory of Notation Singing would broaden the official set of listed literature within the basic solfege education domain. This work, through a method of theoretical analysis, employs didactic and methodological apparatus, textual and notation content of a second amended volume.

This paper emphasizes theoretical view of the Miodrag Vasiljević's functional method and its impact on the implementation of elementary solfeggio teaching. This method established a basis for a creation of an authentic Serbian music school system. It was on its principles that the modern elementary solfeggio education was created, and richness of a national music heritage was taken at scientific, pedagogical, national and historic levels. Functional method is based on trusted and proven didactics including methodological solutions so that it achieves a tangible pedagogical results. Nevertheless, it has been faced a significant number of opponents among pedagogy experts, who did not have insight into a functional method. Once Vasiljević passed away, the Functional Method was removed from contemporary education programs, and the printing of his books was halted. The aim of this paper is to point out to the fact that the Serbian musical folklore can smoothly and easily be implemented into a modern elementary solfeggio education, simply by a selection of melodies, songs, and dances and with the help of Functional Method, as it is a logical upgrade of a present system.

Background/Aim. Renal stones located in the lower pole of kidney represent a serious challenge for surgical treatment in children. The options are: open surgery, extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy, percutaneous nephrolithotomy and retrograde intrarenal surgery. Reports about the endoscopic treatment in children are limited. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of retrograde intrarenal surgery in pediatric patients with renal stones in lower pole of the kidney. Methods. We retrospectively analyzed the results of the retrograde intrarenal surgery in 24 patients with renal stones in lower pole, between April 2012 and April 2016. Flexible ureterorenoscopy in combination with holmium laser lithotripsy were performed. We considered stone fragment size 3 mm or less as a measure of sufficient fragmentation of the stone. Results. Mean duration of general anesthesia was 68 (range, 40–90) minutes. Duration of hospitalization was 1–3 (mean, 1.6) days. Complications were found after two (8.4%) surgical procedures: perirenal haematoma in one (4.2%) and urinoma in one (4.2%) patient. The stone was completely fragmented in 18 (75%) patients. In 3 (12.5%) patients the stone was incompletely fragmented and in 3 (12.5%) patients the stone was not fragmented. Double J stent was placed in 5 (21%) patients. Mean follow-up was 9 (range, 6–18) months. Conclusion. Retrograde intrarenal surgery in children is the least invasive, effective and safe surgical procedure for stones in lower pole of the kidney, with minimal complication rate. Unsuccessful treatment in some patients was due to loss of ureterorenoscope deflection with laser probe in working channel.

This paper brings information about a few gravestones from the first half of the XVIII century, which still exist in the village graveyard in Grabovica on the southern slopes of Rudnik mountain. All the gravestones are made of yellowish sandstone in the form of cross and are situated in the central part of the graveyard with their frontal side facing west. Only two of these headstones have almost entirely preserved inscriptions, by which a precise conclusion about the time and circumstances of their construction can be established. Both epitaphs are dated in the early may of 1739 and they belong to members of the same family: the Radicevic brothers -- Dragic and Dragutin -- from the Kosani clan. Except the names of deceased and the dates of their death, inscriptions include the notion of their closest relatives who erected the headstones. Some of the characteristics of these epitaphs are popular language, the use of Arabic ciphers and abundance of content. Although the fact that Grabovica was inhabited in the 1730’s is confirmed by the other documentary sources from the period of Austrian rule in Serbia, the analysed epigraphical sources offer some new particularities about the population of this village. There are not many preserved gravestones from the XVIII century in Central Serbia, especially those with complete inscriptions, and, therefore, this contibution represents a valuable supplement to the existing corpora of archaeological and epigraphical findings in the region. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper discusses the relationship between intelligence services and national security, or the significance of intelligence services’ impact on the national security of any country. The author starts by stating that this relationship is often simplified, within the following pattern: domestic intelligence services (always) work towards achieving and preserving the national security of their own country, and foreign intelligence services (always) threaten and impair this security. Using the comparative historical method and methods of analysis and synthesis, the author subjects this pattern to criticism, stating, first, that domestic intelligence services (both at national and subnational level), in addition to the expected positive, i.e. constructive action, may also act destructively to national security. On the other hand, he maintains that foreign intelligence services, in addition to predominantly destructive effect on national security of other countries, may also have a positive impact. Offering ample evidence for both of these assertions, the author concludes that the relationship between the intelligence services and national security is much more complex than many people might think, and that it does not do with any simplifying and easily launched patterns.

The paper analyzes the relationship between freedom of expression and the right to respect for honour and reputation. It was pointed out the importance that is given to freedom of expression nowadays, and it was especially considered the practice of the European Court of Human Rights. On that occasion, the difference that exists between public and private personalities was pointed out, as well as the doubts that may arise from the distinction between factual statements and value judgments. When it comes to the right to privacy, the author referred to the importance of honour and reputation, and on that occasion reminded of the “double” presence of these values. In one case it is Art. 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights, and in another the case law of the European Court of Human Rights regarding the meaning of the term of the right to privacy from Art. 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights. Solutions in domestic law and case law are analyzed, and special attention is paid to one case in which the relationship between freedom of expression and violation of honor and reputation was discussed. The specificity of this situation is reflected, inter alia, in the fact that we are talking about university professors. The author used the normative, comparative and historical method when writing the paper.

U ovome radu se upoređuju i kritički propituju najvažnije karakteristike strukturalizma i poststrukturalizma kao dve izuzetno važne teorijske orijentacije za razumevanje aktuelne društvene i političke stvarnosti in genere. U tom smislu, analiziraju se teoretske premise/konceptualizacije: strukture, subjekta, identiteta, jezičkih formi, retorskih inkoherentnosti teksta i generativnih konsekvencija moći, to jest kontekstualizacije njenih istorijski datih/nasleđenih institucija i praksi. Pored toga što rad pokušava i da popuni evidentnu prazninu koja vlada na nivou razumevanja ova dva diskursa u okviru srpskog politikološkog prostora, on pledira i za njihovu intenzivno projektovanje/primenu u interpretaciji indigene srpske političke realnosti. Rad tretira poststrukturalizam i kao svojevrsnu intrinsičnu kritiku strukturalizma, i kao „strukturalizam strukturalizma”, neku vrstu, jako slobodno rečeno, „meta-strukturalizma”. Pritom, postmodernistički meta-narativ se doživljava kao kulturna manifestacija/valencija akademski formulisanog meta-narativa poststrukturalizma.

During the last two decades there is a growing awareness of the importance of introducing organic agricultural production in Serbia due to issues of health, environmental protection and need for more sustainable agriculture. There is a need for education of small farmers on the possibilities of organic production and significance of information technologies for education, production and marketing. This paper aims to examine the perception on the possibilities of organic production and ICT use concerning their level of education. The study has included 143 farmers from Raška district, municipality Kraljevo. The statistical ANOVA analysis has been done by using the software package SPSS18 to explore an impact the education has on the perception of small farmers on the use of information technologies in education, production, and marketing of agricultural products. The results show statistically significant difference in the perception of small farmers on the usage of information technologies regarding their level of education.

In this paper, the author considers a traditional theoretical approach in explaining the process of moral panic, especially in the context of the stages in which it develops. Three theoretical approaches were considered: a grassroots model, an elite-engineered model, and an interest - groups model. The grassroots model stems from the view that the general public is a basic starting point for the occurrence of most moral panic. In other words, the roots of any moral panic are in the previously activated concern of the general public. On the other hand, an elite-engineered model claims that the ruling elite causes, creates or directs moral panic. The most common motivation of the elite in the process of creating a moral panic is to draw public attention from real problems, and crime is one of the most appropriate topics for achieving this goal. The third theory of moral panic gives priority to interest groups or social movements and believes that these subjects play a decisive role in the occurrence of most moral panic. In this regard, the distinction between interest groups and social movements is especially emphasized in the paper. At the end of the paper, the author points to the importance of involving and more modern approaches in explanation of moral panic in order to approach the problem in a comprehensive way.
