In paper is given overview on geotechnical characteristics of the terrain on location of a bridge number 3, on highway Tarcin – Konjic. Complexity of geological structure, in near surface where it consists from sediments of weathering crust to depth of around 30,0 m, as well as in substrate that consists of sediments of clayey debris, determined the way of foundation. On software package Geo 5 is done a semi-analytical approach for determining the load capacity of the pile and extent of subsidence in relation to given load. Pile is modeled with beam elements where is observed behavior of surrounding terrain according to Winkler-Pasternak modele, and shearing force to the contact of pile and soil are determined based on Mohr-Coulombo criteria. Changeable characteristics on the terrain demanded analysis of every pile for which are given propositions for foundation and allowed load.

Introduction : A method for age estimation, based on measurements of projections of open apices and heights of developing permanent teeth on orthopantomograms (OPTs), was presented by Cameriere in 2006 and adopted European formula was presented in 2007. Aim : This cross-sectional study tested the accuracy of Cameriere’s European formula on a sample from the City of Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Materials and methods : A final sample of 560 OPTs of 305 girls and 255 boys aged 8 to 14 years was obtained. The sample was collected at the Department of Orthodontics, School of Dental Medicine at the University of Sarajevo (SFUNSA). Dental age was compared to chronological age and mean absolute error (MAE) was calculated. Intra-rater and inter-rater agreement of the evaluated variables were calculated. Results : The dental age was underestimated when compared to chronological age, precisely, mean underestimation was -0.14 years in girls and -0.17 years in boys. The values of MAE were 0.62 years in girls and 0.56 years in boys. The greatest error was found for the 14-year old group; DA was -1.04 years and -0.70 years in girls and boys respectively. Conclusion : Our results showed that Cameriere’s European formula might be a useful tool for age estimation in children from Bosnia and Herzegovina under the age of 14 years.

The Mental Health Project in BiH (PMZ BiH), Phase II, is a continuation of Phase I of the Mental Health Project. Direct results are: strengthened competencies and skills of multidisciplinary teams to provide better mental health services. In co-operation with sister associations from BiH, Swiss experts have supported the further strengthening of nursing sta ff in mental health through: support for the development of sister documentation, support in updating clinical guides with a focus on sister practice and providing training and / or direct support to selected members of sister associations in regarding the application of sister documentation and instructions for acting in their work. Assessment of the capacity of professional associations and speci fi c needs of mental health professionals, realized within the BiH Mental Health Project, resulted in the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding and Cooperation between the above mentioned associations: who implemented the Project: “Strengthening Nursing Competencies within the Center for the Protection of Mental Health”. Targeted sisterhood interventions will improve the orientation of the mental health system to the patient, provide health care with respect and understanding, and e ff ectively treat patients. Interventions will contribute to better health outcomes, a better quality of life for mental health users and the general well-being of people with mental disorders, as well as those at risk of having a mental disorder. The project encompasses 40 centers for the protection of mental health in BiH with one representative - a medical nurse / technician. The acquired knowledge and skills, trained nurses / technicians, were passed on to other employees in the centers. The users with whom the sister documentation is applied are more satis fi ed with the speed and method of obtaining professional help. In 55.51% of respondents, the time of establishing the fi nal diagnosis and condition is shortened. In 44.49% of users who are already in treatment in the centers, the deterioration of the disease is prevented by the introduction of a faster and better quality service.

When dealing with orthopaedic treatment of skeletal Class III malocclusion, a long-term stability of the treatment outcome is not always achievable. Although, clinical investigations1-4 have reported that orthopaedic treatments are effective to reduce skeletal Class III malocclusion avoiding surgery, there is a tendency for some patients toward re-emergence of the Class III growth pattern, especially during the pubertal growth phase.5 ABSTRACT

This paper addresses the depolarisation effect in off-body body area networks channels, based on measurements performed at 2.45 GHz in an indoor environment. Seven different scenarios, involving both static and dynamic users, were considered, taking a statistical perspective. The analysis of the cross-polarisation discrimination is performed, as well as the analysis of path loss in co- and cross-polarised channels. Results show a strong dependence of the cross-polarisation discrimination and of channel characteristics on the polarisation and propagation condition, i.e. line-of-sight (LoS), non-LoS or quasi-LoS. Distance, varied between 1 and 6 m in the considered scenarios, is observed to have very little impact on the cross-polarisation discrimination. In the considered dynamic scenario, the channel is characterised by lognormal-distributed shadowing and Nakagami-distributed multipath fading. Parameters of the Nakagami distribution have essentially different values in the co- and cross-polarised channels, showing a trend towards Rice in the former and Rayleigh in the latter. Based on results, a model is proposed for a dynamic off-body channel.

This study was conducted to reveal what Memrise, an online vocabulary study tool, can offer to upper-intermediate EFL learners compared to traditional vocabulary exercises in L2 vocabulary learning. Two groups of upper-intermediate learners (N=80) were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group and were given the Vocabulary Knowledge Scale, VKS for short, as the pre-test and post-test. The participants in both groups were exposed to the target vocabulary items in the same reading text. While those in the experimental group created list of target vocabulary items collaboratively in Memrise and then studied the sets individually, the learners in the control group did traditional vocabulary exercises. The results of the post-tests indicated that there was a significant difference between the control group and the experimental group in favor of the experimental group. The researchers discuss possible pedagogical implications of this significant finding for EFL vocabulary instruction.

Introduction: Orthodontic treatment, in addition to patient benefits, includes certain risks and complications that should not beignored. The side-effects of orthodontic therapy all therapists want to avoid or reduce to a minimum.The occurrence of these complications depends on the orthodontic technique, medical knowledge in this field, patient's generaland oral health, and oral hygiene habits. Part of the risk and complications depend on the patient's ability to understand andcooperate during the therapy. For this reason, it is a medico-legal obligation to inform our patients about side effects of any medicalintervention what will be undertaken. In the previous issue, an overview of local complications of orthodontic treatment - dentalcomplications was presented. The aim: The aim of this part is to present a detailed overview of the most common complications with local effect- periodontalcomplications in the context of the contemporary attitude of the risks and complications associated with orthodontic treatment. Material and methods: Classification was presented by Graber, 2004th, in its publication, "Risk Management in Orthodontics: AnExpert's Guide to Malpractice," used as a starting point for the development of this review. A complex search was performed (PubMed, Google Scholar, etc.), with the restriction upon of publication date (beginning with 2004) to find relevant current studies.Search keywords were combinations of words: complication, orthodontic treatment, risks, side effects. Concluding remarks: Periodontal complications are the most common side effects linked with orthodontic treatment according tocontemporary literature. Serious analysis of potential risk for periodontal complications is mandatory for orthodontic patientsbefore the treatment starts. It is the only correct way to minimize complications during and after orthodontic treatment.

A great number of spring garlic populations are present in Serbia. It is a very heterogeneous biological material. To date, it has been little studied. Therefore, the aim was to study its production and chemical characteristics. Eighteen populations of spring garlic were examined. Most of the production of this garlic in Serbia is based on them. They were examined in Zminjak, which is located in the central Macva (Serbia). The method of field experiments was used. The research lasted for three years. The results comprise two groups of parameters. The first group contains the results which show the most important productive characteristics (weight of bulb, number of cloves per bulb, bulb yield). The second group consists of the parameters for chemical characteristics of the investigated populations (dry matter, etheric oil, and allin). In this case, the populations demonstrated a significant influence, and their stability was also very conspicuous. Most of the investigated populations of spring garlic can serve as a good resultant material for obtaining new cultivars. The populations can be classified as follows: SG-18, SG-25, SG-28, SG-16, SG-29 (yield), SG-21, SG-26 (technological quality) and SG-29, SG-18, SG-16 (foodstuff and pharmaceutical quality). They can remain as populations, but it would be significantly better to create new cultivars by using them.

Microscopic analysis of the skin and cuticle of wool fibers in Dubska pramenka show different qualitative parameters. The research study included different parts of the body and the samples of the wool fibers from different regions of the body. Histological description shows difference in the basic structurers of the skin in Dubska pramenka. A very pronounced thin epidermis, while dermis and hypodermis are more developed on the samples from the shoulder. Cornified flakes-cuticle of the root of the tail was of a fine structure, and cornified flakes from the rump showed the features of the rough wool fibers. “Transitional form of cuticle” was dominant on the shoulder. The qualitative parameters have a significant influence on the overall quality of wool in general, and the research contributes to a greater usability value of the wool and development of livestock farming in areas in a broader sense.

Abstract Effects of additions of buckwheat flour and sourdough on the total phenols content, antioxidant activity, and sensory properties of crackers were examined. Different mixtures of wheat flour with addition of buckwheat flour and sourdough were used for the prepartion of crackers. Two types of lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus brevis) were used for the preparation of buckwheat sourdough. Properties of crackers made with addition of buckwheat flour and sourdough were analysed in comparison to control crackers made only with wheat flour. Significant increase of total phenols in comparison to wheat flour dough (0.73 mg gallic acid equivalent (GA)/g of dry basis (d.b.)) was accomplished by adding buckwheat flour (1.12 mg GA/g d.b.) and sourdough (1.77 and 1.79 mg GA/g d.b.) regardless of the type of lactic acid bacteries used. All samples showed the decrease in total phenol content during baking process. Crackers with sourdough had higher antioxidant activity (16.84 and 15.84 mmol Fe3+/g d.b.) compared to crackers made with addition of buckwheat flour (10.42 mmol Fe3+/g d.b.) and control sample (7.76 mmol Fe3+/g d.b.). The result of sensory analysis showed positive influence of sourdough on taste and texture of crackers and insignificant differences in odour and appearance of tested samples. Also, the chewiness of crackers made with the addition of buckwheat flour and sourdough was improved compared to control crackers made from wheat flour.
