Introduction. Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignancies in men. The most common type is acinar adenocarcinoma. Small cell prostate cancer (SCPC) usually occurs together with coexisting prostate adenocarcinoma. Case report. A 72-years-old patient with voiding simptoms is presented. Initial level of prostate specific antigen (PSA) was 2.87 ng/mL. Twelve prostate biopsies were taken and in six of them neoplastic tissue was detected. The viewed tissue was most convenient to “small cell carcinoma“. Bone scintigraphy did not demonstrate dissemination of the cancer into the skeletal system. Multislice computed tomography (MSCT) of the pelvis did not reveal any special pathological changes. The patient underwent surgery – radical retropubical prostatectomy. Histopathological analysis revealed a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the prostate with small cell carcinoma zones [Gleason score 5+5 (10), grade III, pT3bN1, stage IV]. Conclusion. Poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the prostate, especially in combination with SCPC, is an aggressive malignancy with most cases presenting with the extensive disease dissemination on diagnosis and poor prognosis. Small cell carcinomas of the prostate are extremely rare tumors of the neuroendocrine origin. Patients with mixed prostate cancer, compared to pure SCPC, have a better prognosis and greater survival rate. There is a lack of the evidence guiding treatment for SCPC.

18F-FDG PET/CT ,SUVmax ,vascular graft ,infection ,Medicine - Abstract
Introduction. Positron emission tomography (PET) with computed tomography (CT) using fluorine- 18-labeled fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG PET/CT) is a hybrid diagnostic method based on the cell’s glucose uptake detection, which correlates with the degree of disease activity. While other diagnostic procedures fail to evaluate functional tissue, 18F-FDG PET/CT can be helpful in discovering active disease in patients with vascular graft infection. Methods. This cohort retrospective study included 22 patients (17 male, five female; aged 61.7 ± 16.1) with suspected vascular graft infection. Blood analyses and CT were performed in all patients. Degree of glucose uptake was evaluated visually and semiquantitatively using maximal standardized uptake value (SUVmax). Findings were considered positive if focal fluoro-deoxyglucose (FDG) accumulation was greater in vascular graft projection than other parts of the blood vessel and liver. Results. The sighs of active disease were found in 19 patients (86%) (16 male, three female) at the level of implanted vascular grafts: six aortobifemoral (27%), four aortoiliac (18.2%), four of abdominal aorta (18.2%), two of thoracic aorta (9.1%), two femoral (9.1%), one femoropopliteal (4.5%) (SUVmax 7.9 + 2.4). Two patients were considered true and one false negative- due to antibiotic usage, which reduces FDG uptake. PET/CT helped in treatment alteration of 12 patients, seven (31.8%) started new medicament therapy, five (22.7%) had a surgical graft replacement. Overall sensitivity of this method is 95%, specificity 100%, positive predictive value 100%, negative predictive value 66.6%, accuracy 95.4%. Conclusion. 18F-FDG PET/CT is a useful diagnostic method in detection of active vascular graft infection with high diagnostic accuracy, which is important in avoiding unnecessary surgery and appropriate therapy planning.

Ilizarov method ,tibial plateau ,fracture ,Medicine - Abstract
Introduction/Objective. Tibial plateau fractures constitute a significant group of injuries to a major weight-bearing joint. High-energy fractures are difficult to treat, as they entail articular depression, condylar displacement, dissociation of comminuted metaphysis, and closed degloving injuries. The principles of the treatment are anatomical reconstruction of the articular surface, restoration of the anatomical axis, fixation spanning the metaphyseal comminution, and further minimization of soft tissue injury. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcome of using Ilizarov external fixator in the treatment of high-energy Schatzker IV, V, and VI tibial plateau fractures. Methods. This retrospective study was conducted from 2013–2016 on 35 patients (36 fractures) with high-energy tibial plateau fractures classified as Schatzker type IV, V, and VI. The mechanisms of injury were road traffic accident, fall from a height and direct trauma. The fractures were closed in 26 cases and open in 10 cases. All patients were treated with ligamentotaxis and percutaneous fixation using Ilizarov fixator. Functional outcome was determined using the Knee Society Score. Results. The mean follow-up period was 20 months. All fractures healed in an average time of 14 weeks. The range of knee flexion after one-year follow-up averaged at 100°. Average Knee Society Score in our study was 77. Conclusion. Ilizarov external fixation is a safe and efficient treatment modality for high-energy tibial plateau fractures. It allows reconstruction of the articular surface, stable fixation, early rehabilitation, and care of soft tissue injuries.

Introduction. Elevated cardiac troponin gives excellent accuracy in the identification of myocardial damage in children, but it can also be elevated in a series of other diseases. Case report. We presented two children thirteen years of age with a high serum level of troponin-I after an acute episode of supraventricular tachycardia. We analyzed troponin- I levels in correlation with the maximum heart rate, duration of tachycardia and systolic left ventricular function (ejection fraction and fractional shortening). Conclusion. Abnormal troponin level can be seen in children with sustained supraventricular tachycardia and normal heart. Caution is advised in diagnosing cardiac dysfunction in children with supraventricular tachycardia and elevated troponin levels.

Background/Aim. The most frequent form of sternal defects is a single foramen, usually located at the distal half of the sternal body, with prevalence that varies among different ethnic populations. Clinical importance of these defects arises from various diagnostic and therapeutic sternal treatments and close location of heart, lungs and other vital organs of the chest cavity. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and morphometric characteristics of the sternal midline foramen in the population of central Serbia. Methods. The multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) chest images of 422 patients of both genders were analyzed. The radiological imaging was performed on 64- slice MDCT scanner (Aquilion 64, Toshiba, Japan). All scans were performed in the axial plane, with subsequent multiplanar reconstruction (MPR). Due to the angulation of the sternal body coronal curved-planar, the images were obtained in order to show the whole length of the sternum and the vertical diameter of the sternal foramen. The measurements were done using the commercially available software (Imaging Software ver. 4.1.14.0, Vital-Images). Results. The solitary foramen, located in the distal segment of the sternal body, was detected in 24 patients, representing 5.9% of the observed population with slightly higher prevalence in males. The average size of foramen was 3.9 × 4.2 mm. The mean distance from the skin was 12.7 ± 3.3 mm, the distance from skin to pericardium was on average 37.3 ± 8.2 mm, while the average distance from skin to pleura was 25 ± 5.9 mm. The average depth of foramen 8.7 ± 2 mm, while the mean distance from the posterior surface of foramen to pericardium was 12.7 ± 9.1 mm. Conclusion. The results presented in this paper confirmed the prevalence of 5.9% regarding the midline sternal foramen in the observed population. Serious complications of the sternal puncture could be prevented by prior MDCT imaging.

Introduction/Objective. Vesica ileale Padovana is the surgical technique for reconstruction of lower urinary tract following radical cystectomy using isolated ileal segment. This operative technique requires dissection of both ureters in full length, that can’t be possible in some cases. The paper is aimed to present our experience with modified surgical technique of vesica ileale Padovana using 40 cm of an isolated ileal segment and initial results. Methods. 10 male patients received modified ileal neobladder following radical cystectomy at our institution during the period 2008 to 2011. The mean age of patients was 59 years (45-70). Median follow-up was 76 months (62-93). Patients were monitored cautiously for functional outcome, local recurrence, and distant progression. Results. Perioperative, early and late postoperative mortality have not been noticed. There were only 2 major complications: prolonged postoperative ileus and prolonged urinary leakage requiring percutaneous nephrostomy and subsequent ureteral reimplantation due to stenosis of ureterovesical anastomosis in 1 patient (10 %), respectively. Average ileal neobladder capacity was 450 ml. Daytime and night continence were achieved in 9 (90%) and 7 (70%) of patients, respectively. Conclusion. This modification of orthotopic ileal neobladder has not been difficult to perform in our hands. Modified technique provides a clear advantage in easier ureteral implantation more proximally than in the original technique, requiring less length of ureters. Initial encouraging results should be confirmed in further clinical practice.

Introduction. Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP), as a mini-invasive approach in the treatment of patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs), provides stabilization of the spine and relives pain. The most commonly it is applied in the 3–6 weeks before bending of the spine. Complete cessation of pain is easier to achieve if you treat “less mature” fractures. The aim of the report is to show that PVP is effective and safe for old fractures too. Case report. A 77-old patient suffered from a stable compression fracture of 3th lumbar (L3) vertebral body after minor trauma. This fracture was clinically and radiologically diagnosed. The conservative treatment that included lumbo-sacral orthosis (LSO), analgesic drugs and physical therapy, was primarily applied due to permanent pain and type of fracture. After a period of two months, pain persisted, but it was localized in a thoracic spinal segment with radiologically diagnosed fractured bodies of 8th (Th8) and 10th (Th10), thoracic vertebra without neurological deficit. Thoraco-lumbo-sacral orthosis (TLSO) was prescribed and after six months the indication for vertebroplasty of the Th8 and Th10 vertebral body was given. The pain relief had been achieved and the patient was discharged from the Clinic for Orthopedics on the postoperative day 2, and was symptom free during the follow-up period. Conclusion. In patients with stable OVCFs, PVP is an effective therapy for reducing pain and improving mobility of 6 months old fractures.

Introduction. Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is a fast spreading pleomorphic sarcoma with a high malignant potential. Its spreading is characterized with local invasion and distant metastazes with early onset. Most common localisations of development are extremities, trunk and retroperitoneum. Given the line of rare case and specimen, lack of a clear etiology and mechanisms of this disease, as well as adequate histopathologic findings and intraoperative documentation, we presented current status, discuss putative etiology, histopathology with variant morphology, differential diagnosis and treatment modalities. Case report. We presented a 56-years-old female Serbian with tumor in the thigh that clinically resembles incapsulated hematoma. Computed tomography revealed intramuscular tumor with a heterodense structure and compression on surround tissue. Ex tempore biopsy specimen showed malignant potential of the tumor. Wide and radical excision of the nodule has been done, and definitive histopathological verification revealed malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Conclusion. Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is a most common type of soft tissue sarcomas in adults. Frequent localization is on lower extremities, and every rapidly enlarging nodule in this localization that on computed tomography is like incapsulated hematoma with necrotic zone should alert suspicion on presence of this type of sarcoma.

Background/Aim. The values of the Böhler’s angle (BA) are relevant parameters for diagnosis, management and prognosis of the calcaneal fracture and the outcome. Range of normal values of Böhler’s angle (BA) in adults varies depending on the examined population, age, gender or ethnicity. The aim of this study was to determine the range of normal values of the Böhler’s angle in the central part of Serbia. Methods. The lateral foot radiographs of 225 subjects (111 males and 114 females) without calcaneal fractures, divided into 6 age groups were observed to determine the normal values of the Böhler’s angle by using the IMPAX 6.5.2.114 Enterprise software. Obtained values for Böhler’s angle were compared among gender and groups using appropriate statistical tests. Results. The mean of Böhler’s angle in observed population was 34.06°, ranging from 25.1° to 49.5° and was higher in males than in females included in our study. Gender difference was statistically significant. The distribution of the mean BA across the age groups showed tendency of decreasing with age and the highest BA was found in the youngest group. Conclusion. The findings presented in this paper confirmed the existence of wide range of BA values as well as its gender and age differences.

Medicine - Abstract
Humans carry up to 200 bacterial species in the gastrointestinal tract. Important contribution of these genes is in carbohydrate degradation. The main task of the gut microbiota is digestion of food. The dominant gut bacteria are degradates of complex polysaccharides and releasing SCFA which are the sources for energy, cholesterol synthesis and gluconeogenesis. The mutual interaction of gut microbiota and host immune system is necessary for maintaining their symbiotic relationship. Microbial compositions differ in different metabolic conditions. Firmicutes are dominant in obese subjects while Akkermansia muciniphila which protect against adiposity, low grade inflammation in adipose tissue and insulin resistance is reduced in this population. Intestinal dysbiosis is associated with insulin resistance and diabetes type 2. Betaproteobacteria was highly enriched in diabetic population. The ratio of Bacteriodetes to Firmicutes and the Bacteroides-Prevotella group to the C.coccoides-E.rectale group are reduced. Gastrointestinal rearrangements after RYGB promote substantial changes on the gut microbiota. Gut microbota manipulation in favor of Akkermansia spp. may contribute in antidiabetic effect of metformin and could be potential treatment for T2D. Changes in gut bacteria after RYGB (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass) alter the body weight independent of other effects of bariatric/metabolic surgery. Mechanism for diabetes remission after bariatric surgery is still not clear. Besides change in incretin secretion and bile acid recirculation, potential mechanism is change of gut microbiota content. Possible improvement of glucose regulation following bariatric surgery may be related to butyrate and propionate production by some bacteria species, which influence glucose metabolism independently of bile acids recirculation.

In this work, three novel silver(I) complexes with an almost completely rigid and bulky monodentate ligand, 1-adamantanamine, were synthesized. The aliphatic amine, 1-adamantanamine, is the sole electron donor ligand in these complexes. In addition to spectroscopic characterization, the basic biological activities of the new compounds were investigated and their minimum inhibitory concentrations were determined. The antifungal and antibacterial activities indicate that these compounds could potentially be applied as new therapeutics.

Background/Aim. Preservation of an adequate posterior tibial slope (PTS) during total knee arthroplasty is crucial for the biomechanical stability and function of the knee joint. Studies that investigated anatomical features of the tibial plateau found significant gender and inter-population differences in all components of the PTS. The aim of this study was to establish reference values of PTS in Serbian population and to explore if there is any difference in the tibial plateau inclination between genders. Methods. We retrospectively reviewed 161 magnetic resonance images (MRIs) of the knee of adult patients examined in Medical Military Academy in Belgrade, Serbia, in a period from November 2011 to September 2014. Measurements of PTS components: medial tibial slope (MTS), lateral tibial slope (LTS), and coronal tibial slope (CTS) were performed through several steps, according to the suggestions in the recent literature. Obtained values for each tibial slope were compared between gender subgroups using appropriate statistical tests. Results. Mean values of each component of the posterior tibial slope for male vs. female subgroups were as follows: MTS 3.7° ± 2.8° vs. 5.1° ± 2.9°, LTS 4.2° ± 2.8° vs. 4.3° ± 2.7°, and CTS 3.9° ± 2.4° vs. 3.3° ± 1.9° respectively. The medial tibial slope was significantly higher in females than in males (p = 0.005). The mean value of the coronal tibial slope was greater in males without statistically significant difference (p = 0.105). Conclusion. This study demonstrated significant difference in MTS of the tibial plateau between males and females, being higher in the female subgroup.

Crime represents a harmful occurrence that is specific for each culture and socioeconomic formation. Due to this it is no surprise that there is an interest for crime in different areas of social sciences and life. Since crime is a burning topic of numerous scientific and expert analyses or researches, it can be concluded that it is an old mutual problem of all countries, old and new ones. It doesn't depend only on the sociopolitical order, but economic development and characteristical social factors and circumstances that exist in respective countries as well. Surprisingly large diversity of causes and circumstances that lead to the occurrence of crime demands a different approach to its research. It is possible and consists of the application of multivariate analysis, since it allows for many different ways of observing crime and taking more efficient actions aimed at its prevention and enabling of normal functioning and development of state and society.

Introduction. Extremely rarely, the evolution of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) includes the phase when extravasations of the blood from a ruptured aneurysm is contained by the surrounding tissue, referred to as chronic (contained) rupture of the AAA. Our aim was to call attention to this life-threatening condition, which is always challenging for diagnosis. Case outline. A 58-year-old man reported to the Emergency Center for significant abdominal pain. Ultrasound examination showed an infrarenal aneurysm of the abdominal aorta. A computed tomography scan of the thorax, abdomen, and pelvis with iodine contrast in arterial phase was performed. A free gas collection was observed between the liver and the anterior abdominal wall that is traced to a ruptured inflamed diverticulum on the transversal colon. Immediately distal to the branching sites of the renal arteries, the abdominal aorta extended forward and aneurismatically expanded. Posterior left, along the psoas muscle, a rupture of the aortic wall was seen, with an organized hematoma that accompanied the muscle. Between the hematoma and the aortic aneurysm, erosions of the anterior and lateral part of the vertebral bodies L2 and L3 were discovered. The patient underwent endovascular AAA repair (EVAR) and recovered well. Conclusion. Multidetector computed tomography angiography is a reliable, non-invasive, and necessary examination for localization and evaluation of the size of the AAA form, its chronic rupture, and complications such as vertebral body erosion.

It is frequently important in agroeconomics, on examing form example in plant breeding the problem might be to decide whether a plant or plant progeny belons to a high-yealding or low-yealding grop up. Sometimes decisions can be made on the basic of a single variable, but more often of the 2 group differ in several variables, each of which gives some indication as to group in which the individual should be placed. This is a classical problem of discrimination, where the general problem is to find a discrimination function.

Crime represents a harmful occurrence that is specific for each culture and socioeconomic formation. Due to this it is no surprise that there is an interest for crime in different areas of social sciences and life. Since crime is a burning topic of numerious scientific and expert analyses or researches, it can be concluded that it is an old mutual problem of all countries, old and new ones. It doesn't depend only on the sociopolitical order, but economic development and characteristical social factors and circumstances that exist in respective countries as well. Surprisingly large diversity of causes and circumstances that lead to the occurrence of crime demands a different approach to its research. It is possible and consists of the application of multivariate analysis, since it allows for many different ways of observing crime and taking more efficient actions aimed at its prevention and enabling of normal functioning and development of state and society. Application of multivariation analysis in crime, is based on consideration of indirect (implicit) knowledge as a method applied on a sample that consists of data from forty seven US countries. Depending on their individuality, different crime rates were determined for each federal state. The mentioned sample was used to answer a simple question through multivariation analysis: would its application discover hidden causes of crime rates, which aren't visible from the data contained in the selected sample? In order to achieve the set goal, factor analysis was used as well the method of inverse factoral (segmentation) sample analysis. Discovering such hidden samples of crime would be a very important way of achieving total control on it. Since full control of crime represents a very modern way in contemporary approach to fighting rime in the world, it is obvious that control is impossible without considering such hidden factors (causes and conditions) which favour occurrence of criminal behavior, which can be shown by multivariation analysis based on the aforementioned sample.

Background/Aim. Damage of any element of pelvic floor leads to its functional damages, reflected in the occurrence of urinary incontinence, prolapse of pelvic organs, fecal incontinence and sexual dysfunction. Basic aim of our paper was to investigate the influence of various risk factors on pelvic floor muscle strength in women. Methods. The study included 90 female patients and examined how age, job, body weight and height, number of deliveries, sports activities, incontinence occurrence, previous prolapse-caused gynecological surgeries, other gynecological surgeries and other conservatively treated gynecological diseases influence the value of pelvic floor muscle strength. Pelvic floor muscle strength was measured using vaginal dynamometer. Results. Univariate regression analysis showed that parameters such as age, demanding job, body height, number of deliveries, sports activities, prolapse-caused gynecological surgeries, other gynecological surgeries and other gynecological diseases were in positive correlation with the values of pelvic floor muscle strength. In multivariate regression model, incontinence and gynecological operation of prolapse were singled out as independent risk factors. Conclusion. If risk factors that cause damage to pelvic floor muscle are known, it is possible to prevent the damages and improve the quality of women's life.

Introduction. Urinoma develops after disruption of collecting system of urinary tract and urine leak in surrounding tissue. Most common causes of urinoma are blunt or penetrating trauma. Less common causes are iatrogenic injuries or urinary tract obstruction. In this article we presented a rare case of the urinoma caused by infiltrative bladder cancer. Case report. Acutely ill, a septic patient with ileus and profound azothaemia was admitted to medical intensive care unit. Native computed tomography revealed moderate ileus, right kidney hydronephrosis, extensive retroperitoneal urinoma and vesical thickening with excluded infiltration of ureteral orifices. Computed tomography guided percutaneous drainage was done. Upon stabilization, patient underwent transurethral bladder tumor electroresection (histopathology report was: infiltrative transitional cell tumor of urinary bladder). Radical cystectomy was done. The patient’s recovery was uneventful. Conclusion. Urinoma formed due to spontaneous rupture of collecting system based on ureteral obstruction caused by urinary bladder tumor is very rare clinical case scenario. In case of urinoma of unclear etiology invasive bladder cancer should be excluded.

Introduction: pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) is hormone resistance syndrome described for the first time in 1942 by Albright et al. All this patients had high levels of the PTH and specific skeletal deformities which were later termed as Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO). The PTH requires the alpha subunit of G protein for its action. GNAS1 gene encodes the alpha subunit of the G protein and molecular defects in this gene lead to the occurrence of at least four different forms of this syndrome. Pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (PPHP) is a form of PHP which is characterized by physical features of AHO without any evidence of PTH resistance. Albright hereditary osteodystrophy like syndrome (AHO like syndrome) has some common characteristics with AHO but is not connected with the molecular defect in the GNAS 1 gene. Case outline: we reported the case of the female patient with the phenotypic characteristics of AHO (brachydactyly, short stature, mild degree of intelectual deficit and genu varum) but without any evidence of PTH resistance. PPHP occurs mainly in families with PHP 1a and it is inherited from the father which is not the case with our patient. There is a theoretical possibility that the mutation of the GNAS 1 gene occurred de novo but without genetic testing the 2q37 deletion and AHO like syndrome can not be excluded. Conclusion: in same cases of PPHP the diagnosis of AHO like syndrome should be considered but the only way to make the precise diagnosis is the genetic testing as it was in our case.

- Abstract
A variety of monocyclopentadienyl and mono(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) complexes of titanium, zirconium, and hafnium are assessed for abilities to initiate polymerization of ethylene, styrene, and, in part, α-methylstyrene. In general, little or no activity was found for either neutral species of the types CpMMe
3 and CpMMe2 OR or for cationic 12- and 14-electron species of the types [CpMR2 L]+ and [CpMR2 L2 ]+, respectively (Cp = η5-cyclopentadienyl; R = alkyl; L = amine, phosphine ligands). In contrast, much better olefin polymerization initiators result from abstraction of a methyl carbanion from Cp*MMe3 (Cp* = η5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) by B(C6 F5 )3 , a reaction which gives cationic, 10-electron species of the type [Cp*MMe2 ][BMe(C6 F5 )3 ]. Of these, the complex [Cp*TiMe2 ][BMe(C6 F5 )3 ] (A ) is an excellent initiator or initiator precursor for the polymerization of ethylene and styrene, resulting in high yields respectively of high molecular weight polyethylene and atactic (a-PS) and/or syndiotactic polystyrene (s-PS), depending on conditions; the tacticity of purified s-PS, as judged by 13C{1H} NMR spectroscopy, approaches 100%. While the polymerization of ethylene probably involves a classical Ziegler−Natta process, polymerization of styrene to s-PS and a-PS apparently involves respectively a Ziegler−Natta process and carbocationic initiation. High yields of essentially syndiotactic poly(α-methylstyrene) are obtained by utilizing the same initiator system, also apparently via a carbocationic process.- Published

- Abstract
The compounds Cp*TiMe
2 C6 F5 , Cp*TiMe2 OC6 F5 , and Cp*TiMe2 Cl (Cp* = η5-C5 Me5 ) react with the borane B(C6 F5 )3 to form the thermally unstable, chiral complexes Cp*TiMe(C6 F5 )(μ-Me)B(C6 F5 )3 , Cp*TiMe(OC6 F5 )(μ-Me)B(C6 F5 )3 , and Cp*TiMeCl(μ-Me)B(C6 F5 )3 , respectively, which are similar to the known Cp*TiMe2 (μ-Me)B(C6 F5 )3 . All four μ-Me compounds behave as sources of the highly electrophilic species [Cp*TiMeE]+ (E = Me, Cl, C6 F5 , OC6 F5 ) when treated with the borane, the last three being chiral, and all four systems exhibit catalytic activities for the polymerization of ethylene to high-molecular-weight polyethylene. Despite the chirality at titanium of three of the compounds, polymerization of propylene by all of them results in the formation of atactic, elastomeric polypropylene. NMR analyses of the propylene polymers formed show that initiation involves 1,2-insertion into a Ti−Me bond, and while propagation involves primarily head-to-tail 1,2-insertions, an unusually high (by metallocene standards) proportion of the insertions also involves 2,1-misinsertions but essentially no 1,3-enchainment. The major olefinic end groups are vinylidene (CH2 &dbd;CMe−), resulting from β-hydrogen transfer following a 1,2-insertion, and vinyl (CH2 &dbd;CH−), resulting from β-hydrogen transfer from the methyl group following a 2,1-insertion or, more likely, β-methyl transfer following a 1,2-insertion. Small amounts of internal olefins are also formed via β-hydrogen transfer following a 2,1-insertion. An EPR study of the Cp*TiMe3 /B(C6 F5 )3 system in toluene indicates that <0.01% of the titanium is occasionally present during polymerization as a complex of titanium(III), suggesting that a contribution to catalysis by titanium(III) species is unlikely.- Published

- Abstract
Treatment of the neutral trimethyl compounds Cp*MMe
3 (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) with the highly electrophilic borane B(C6 F5 )3 in methylene chloride in the presence of various arenes results in methyl carbanion abstraction and coordination of the arene to form complexes of the type [Cp*MMe2 (η6-arene)][MeB(C6 F5 )3 ] (M = Ti, Zr, Hf; arene = benzene, toluene, m- and p-xylene, anisole, styrene, mesitylene). Indications of relative metal−arene affinities have been gleaned from a variety of low-temperature 1H NMR experiments, and it seems that both steric and electronic factors play significant roles in determining stabilities. The crystal and molecular structures of [Cp*HfMe2 (η6-toluene)][MeB(C6 F5 )3 ] have been determined; as anticipated, there are no significant contacts between anion and cation, and the latter assumes a bent-metallocene type of structure.- Published

In this work we reported syntheses and characterization of two novel compounds of adamantane-1-sulfonic acid (1-AdSO3H) with cobalt(II) and cadmium(II), respectively. The result of the single crystal X-ray analysis of compounds revealed that adamantane-1-sulfonate (1-AdSO3 -) in monoanionic form plays a different role in investigated compounds. Namely, while in compound [Co(H2O)6](1-AdSO3)2 six water molecules are coordinated to cobalt(II) ion and 1-AdSO3 - serves as a counter ion, in compound [Cd(H2O)4(1-AdSO3)2] two molecules of 1-AdSO3 - are trans-coordinated to the cadmium(II) ion as monodentate (O) ligand and other coordination sites are occupied by water molecules. The obtained compounds showed a moderate activity against Artemia salina.

The human subiculum is a significant part of the hippocampal formation positioned between the hippocampus proper and the entorhinal and other cortices. It plays an important role in spatial navigation, memory processing and control of the response to stress. The aim of our study was identification of the morphometric characteristics of the neurons of the human subiculum proper: the maximum length and width of cell body and total dendritic length and volume of cell body. Comparing the measured parameters of different types of subicular neurons (bipolar, multipolar, pyramidal neurons with triangular-shaped soma and neurons with oval-shaped soma), we can conclude that bipolar neurons have the lowest values of the measured parameters: the maximum length of their cell body is 14.1 ± 0.2 µm, the maximum width is 13.9 ± 0.5 µm, and total dendritic length is 14597 ± 3.1 µm. The lowest volume value was observed in bipolar neurons; the polymorphic layer is 1152.99 ± 662.69 µm3. The pyramidal neurons of the pyramidal layer have the highest value for the maximal length of the cell body (44.43 ± 7.94 µm), maximum width (23.64 ± 1.89 µm), total dendritic length (1830 ± 466.3 µm) and volume (11768.65±4004.9 µm3) These characteristics of the pyramidal neurons indicate their importance, because the axons of these neurons make up the greatest part of the fornix, along with the axons of neurons of the CA1 hippocampal field.

Background/Aim. Nucleus accumbens is a part of the ventral striatum also known as a drug active brain region, especially related with drug addiction. The aim of the study was to investigate the Golgi morphology of the nucleus accumbens neurons. Methods. The study was performed on the frontal and sagittal sections of 15 human brains by the Golgi Kopsch method. We classified neurons in the human nucleus accumbens according to their morphology and size into four types: type I - fusiform neurons; type II - fusiform neurons with lateral dendrite, arising from a part of the cell body; type III - pyramidal-like neuron; type IV - multipolar neuron. The medium spiny neurons, which are mostly noted regarding to the drug addictive conditions of the brain, correspond to the type IV - multipolar neurons. Results. Two regions of human nucleus accumbens could be clearly recognized on Nissl and Golgi preparations each containing different predominant neuronal types. Central part of nucleus accumbens, core region, has a low density of impregnated neurons with predominant type III, pyramidal-like neurons, with spines on secondary branches and rare type IV, multipolar neurons. Contrary to the core, peripheral region, shell of nucleus, has a high density of impregnated neurons predominantly contained of type I and type IV - multipolar neurons, which all are rich in spines on secondary and tertiary dendritic branches. Conclusion. Our results indicate great morphological variability of human nucleus accumbens neurons. This requires further investigations and clarifying clinical significance of this important brain region.

Background/Aim. Anatomical parameters of the bony components of the hip joint are essential for better understanding of etiopathogenesis of diseases like primary osteoarthrosis of the hip joint. The aim of this reserch was to examine the normal acetabular morphometry in Serbian population and to determine whether there are sex differences in anatomical parameters of the acetabulum among asymptomatic subjects. Methods. Pelvic radiographics of 320 adult asymptomatic patients (640 hips) were analyzed in 170 men and 150 women to determine the morphology of the acetabulum in Serbian population. For each hip the center edge angle of Wiberg (CEA), the acetabular angle of Sharp (AA), acetabular depth (AD), acetabular roof obliquity (ARO) and roof angle (RA) were measured. Results. The following average measurements for acetabulum geometry were obtained (X ± SD): CEA - 33.5 ± 6.5° (33.6 ± 5.8° in male, 33.3 ± 6.9° in female), AA - 38.0 ± 3.8° (37.5 ± 3.6° in male, 38.5 ± 3.9° in female), AD - 11.9 ± 2.8 mm (12.5 ± 2.7 mm in male, 11.2 ± 2.7 mm in female), ARO - 7.6 ± 5.7° (6.2 ± 4.9° in male, 9.0 ± 6.0° in female) and RA - 18.4 ± 10.0° (19.6 ± 8.5° in male, 17.1 ± 9.5° in female). There were significant differences in the CEA, AA, AD, ARO and RA related to gender (p < 0.01, t-test). Conclusion. There are significant gender differences in Serbian population for all the examined anatomical parameters of acetabulum. We found sex-related differences in acetabular morphology, female acetabulum being marginally more dysplastic than male acetabulum. There is also a clear tendency of female hips to be more dysplastic than male ones.

Background/Aim. Hormone suppression therapy is used in men with advanced prostate cancer improving chances of longer survival. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of androgen blockades on testosterone and luteinizing hormone (LH) values in patients with locally advanced and metastatic prostatic cancer. Methods. The study included a total of 60 patients out of which 45 with prostatic cancer divided into 3 subgroups based on the type of the applied treatment protocol: 15 patients on monotherapy with luteinizing-releasing hormone (LH-RH) agonists (group I), 15 patients on total androgen blockade (group II) and 15 patients on monotherapy with antiandrogen (group III)). The control group consisted of 15 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. In all the patients, values of testosteron, LH and prostatespecific antigen (PSA) were monitored initially, as well as 3 and 6 months after the treatment protocol introduction. Results. In the patients of the groups I, II and III, values of testosterone decreased after three months by 95.58%, 95.72%, and 67%, respectively. The difference was significant (p < 0.01). Between the values after three and six months there was no significant difference in these groups of participants. Testosterone values were significantly higher in the patients of the group III in both analyses. Comparing the values between the groups III and I, as well as those of the groups III and II, a significant difference was found after three and six months of the therapy (p < 0.01). There was a difference in testosterone values between the groups I and II after 3 and 6 months, but not significant. All types of the applied treatment protocols in the therapy of prostatic cancer significantly decreased the values of LH compared to the basal ones. Conclusion. Total androgen blockade and LH-RH agonists are more effective in lowering testosterone values (to castration values) compared to the antiandrogen monotherapy, where testosterone values stay above the castration level. This therapy approach has advantages, since it decreases testosterone values providing better therapy response. There is a difference in testosterone values, but not significant, when total androgen blockade and monotherapy with LH-RH agonists are administered. Registered lower basal values of LH in all patients with prostatic cancer open the possibility to introduce LH as a new additional, significant marker in diagnosis of this neoplasm.

Introduction. In males the ectopic ureter usualy drains into the prostate (50%). During ureteric developement a thin membrane (Chawalla’s membrane) separates the lumen of the ureter and the urogenital sinus at the point where the ureter joins the urogenital sinus. This membrane ruptures allowing urin to drain from the ureter to the urogenital sinus. The authors reported a case of renal dysplasia associated with ipsilateral uretral ectopia mimicking prostatic abscess. Case report. A subfebrile (37.3°C), 23-year-old patient, otherwise healthy, presented with persistent ascending perineal pain non-responsive to antibiotics and analgetics. Digitorectal examination (DRE) showed asymmetric prostate with a soft, tender, buldging left lobe suggestive of prostatic abscess. The diagnosis was suspected using transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS), but the picture of the anechoic tubular structure in the left lobe of the prostate with a proximal undefined extraprostatic extension and a caudal intraprostatic blind end was incoclusive for the definitive diagnosis of prostatic abscess. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was ordered and definitive diagnosis of renal dysplasia associated with the ipsilateral ectopic ureter filled with inflamed content mimicking prostatic abscess was made. Transurethral incision/minimal resection of the distal, blindly closed end of left ectopic ureter was done. Endoscopic surgical treatment was sufficient for relief of clinical symptoms. The patient’s recovery was uneventful. Conclusion. To the best of our knowledge, a case of renal dysplasia with the ipsilateral ectopic ureter mimicking prostate abscess has not been reported so far. Cystic pelvic malformations in males may result from too craniall sprouting of the ureteral bud, with delayed absorption and ectopic opening of the distal end of the ureter.

Background/Aim. Radical cystectomy is a method of choice in the therapy of infiltrative bladder cancer. The aim of this research was to analyze postoperative course after radical cystectomy (length of hospitalization, most frequent complications and utilization of antibiotics and transfusions). Methods. We analyzed the records of 82 patients operated on in the Department of Urology, Clinical Center of Vojvodina, in a three-year period. In order to aquire data World Health Organization (WHO) has developed Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical/Defined Daily Dose (ATC/DDD) methodology. Defined daily dose (DDD) is the assumed average maintenance dose per day for a drug use for its main indication. Results. Continent urinary derivation was preformed in 23.15% cases. Postoperative complications occurred in 18.29% of patients. Average blood utilization was 2.19 units. Blood utilization for continent derivations (n = 48) was 4.6 units, and incontinent ones 3.36 units. Totally 159.33 DDD/100 bed days were used. Conclusion. When preforming continent derivation there is a significant increase in blood utilization. Frequency of postoperative complications correlates to those reported in the literature.

Two new p-cymene ruthenium(II) complexes containing as additional ligands N-methylpiperazine ([(η6-p-cymene)RuCl2(CH3NH(CH2)4NH)]PF6, complex 1) or vitamin K3-thiosemicarbazone ([(η6-p-cymene)RuCl2(K3tsc)], complex 2) were synthesized starting from [(η6-p-cymene)2RuCl2]2 and the corresponding ligand. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, electronic absorption and NMR spectroscopy. The X-ray crystal structure determination of complex 1 revealed “piano-stool” geometry. The differences in the cytotoxic activity of the two complexes are discussed in terms of the ligand present.
