Post-traumatic osteomyelitis (OM) is an uncommon event in cats, usually affecting distal phalanges of extremities. Tail injuries seldom cause bone infection, but often result in neural damage with subsequent tail paralysis, and occasionally in urinary/fecal incontinence. We present a case of old stray cat which developed post-traumatic tail OM, and endured it for years. It was an immuno-compromised, neglected, animal strongly infested with larvae of Aelurostrongylus abs trusus and oocistae of Isospora felis. Ultimately, it was treated by tail amputation, with without any health consequences.  Relevance and novel information: This report describes the management and outcome of a rare and a life-threatening case of feline post-traumatic  tail OM which was previously not reported in literature.

Ciprofloxacin, CFL is a drug that belongs to the second generation of fluoroquinolone antibiotics with a wide range of effects on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The aim of this work was to investigate the interaction of CFL as ligand with divalent biological cations (Mn2+, Ni2+ and Co2+) in approximate physiological conditions. Synthesized complexes were characterized using FTIR and stereo-microscopy. Antimicrobial screening was performed on bacterial strains of Escherichia coli, Salmonella Enteritidis, Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus. The results of FTIR spectroscopy showed that the M(II) complexes with CFL were formed through the oxygen donors of the carboxyl and carbonyl group of the ligand. Stereo-microscopic characterization revealed the difference in color and size of crystals of the ligand and metal complexes. Antimicrobial screening has shown that CFL and complexes have almost similar antimicrobial activity against investigated bacterial strains.

Konec 20. in začetek 21. stoletja na območju Tuzlanskega kantona zaznamujejo negativni demografski trendi, kot so upadanje rodnosti, naraščanje smrtnosti, zmanjševanje naravnega prirastka, staranje prebivalstva, zmanjševanje skupnega števila prebivalstva, medtem ko so po letu 1995 neugodne ekonomske, socialne, politične in druge razmere povečale ekonomsko emigracijo, predvsem v populaciji med 20. in 40. letom starosti. Kot rezultat takšnih demografskih trendov se je v povojnem obdobju pospešil proces staranja prebivalstva, kar obrne trend upadanja potencialne biodinamike in vitalnosti prebivalstva. Zaradi negativnih demografskih trendov na tem območju je prišlo do zmanjšanja populacije osnovnošolske starosti. Cilj tega prispevka je identificirati glavne dejavnike, ki vplivajo na to zmanjšanje, kot tudi stopnjo njihovega vpliva na ta proces, s posebnim poudarkom na naravni dinamiki prebivalstva in intenzivni emigraciji prebivalstva. Če v prihodnosti ne bodo sprejeti ustrezni ukrepi populacijske politike, se lahko negativni demografski trendi še bolj izrazijo, kar bi lahko negativno vplivalo na osnovnošolsko izobraževanje v občinah Tuzlanskega kantona.

Kullanim sirasinda farkli islemler baskili tekstil urunlerini etkiler ve bu islemlerden en yaygin olanlarindan biri yikama islemidir. Yikama islemi tekstil yapisinin ve tekstil liflerinin modifikasyonuna neden olur. Bu arastirmanin amaci, elyaf baskili pamuklu orme tekstil malzemelerinin baski kalitesi parametrelerine yikama isleminin, yikama islem sicakliginin ve baskili malzemenin ozelliklerinin etkilerini belirlemektir. Renk indeksi uzerinden spektrofotometrik analiz ve makro daginiklik analizi kullanilarak etkiler belirlenecektir. Arastirma sonuclari, yikama islemlerinin sayisinin arttirilmasinin ve ayni zamanda yikama sicakliginin arttirilmasinin, yikanmis ve yikanmamis numuneler arasindaki renk farkinin artmasina neden oldugunu gostermektedir. Ayni zamanda, substrat ozelliklerin renk farkliliklari uzerinde buyuk etkisi oldugunu da gosterir. Bunun yaninda, yikama islemi ayni zamanda baski kalitesinde gozle gorulur degisikliklere neden olur ki bu yine substrat ozelliklerine baglidir.

The paper explains main characteristics of existing Ottoman monuments in several Balkan countries. Ottoman architectural activity in the Balkan provinces largely reflected architectural styles founded in the principal centers of the Ottoman Empire. A few buildings were designed by the principal architects of the Empire. Traces of local diversity can be found in the designs together with certain variations in building typology, which reflect prevailing social and environmental conditions as well as local traditions, building technique and materials. Among the remaining monuments of urban environments, besides bridges, hans , hammams , and other building types, mosques largely witness a long and rich architectural Ottoman past. Concerning the typology of a mosque, mostly a single–domed type with a three–bay portico and slender minaret was the common model throughout the Balkans from the 16 th to 18 th century. Today this model still remains in the eyes of many Muslim communities and individuals the ideal model of an Islamic place of worship. The twentieth century, however, has revealed a divergence in approach to the mosque design. While numerous mosques in some Balkan countries are designed on the populist vision of the Ottoman model, a growing number of architects seek to develop a contemporary idiom in mosque design as an appropriate expression of Muslim societies.

Considering that a small number of drugs are completely safe for use during pregnancy, the right choice and adequate risk assessment are extremely important. The aim of this study was to analyze factors associated with the estimation of high teratogenic risk (as judged by clinical pharmacologist) in pregnant females who were prescribed anti-infective drugs or mild analgesics. A cross-sectional study included 284 pregnant women who came for an advice about teratogenic risk to clinical pharmacologist in Clinical Centre Kragujevac, Serbia during the period from 1997 to 2012. All of the included pregnant women were prescribed mild analgesics and/or anti-infective drugs during the first 3 months of pregnancy. The data were collected from patient files and by phone interviews. Clinical pharmacologists estimated the risk of teratogenicity as ìhighî in pregnant females who were using tetracyclines or propionic acid derivatives. Disorders of development reported by mothers during phone interviews were associated with cephalosporin use during the first 3 months of pregnancy, while miscarriages or abortions happened more often in women who used a tetracycline. Estimate of risk from congenital anomalies after use of drugs during pregnancy, which makes clinical pharmacologists as part of their routine healthcare services, depends on the amount of published data about previous experiences with specific drugs during the first 3 months of pregnancy.

Nowadays remote sensing is an indispensable source of information about Earth's surface, primarily satellite-based remote sensing systems. Traditionally, the analysis of data collected from a particular area was based on the analysis of the data of one satellite image. The technological revolution improved spatial, temporal and radiometric resolution of satellite images, which allowed time datasets analysis, combining (integrating) data from various sensors, combining images of different scales and better integration with existing data and models. The integration of data from different sources is becoming an increasingly important factor in numerous aspects of remote sensing, and the results of this technique are used in solving everyday problems.
