Objective: Gerstmann in 1924. observed in a few patients a concomitant impairment in discriminating their own fingers, writing by hand, distinguishing left from right and performing calculations. He claimed that this tetrad of symptoms constituted a syndromal entity, assigned it to a lesion of the dominant parietal lobe. Since than, Gerstmann`s syndrome (GS) was enigma for neuropsychologists. The aim of this study was to analyze frequency and clinical features of GS among acute stroke patients. Patients and methods: We prospectively analyzed 194 acute stroke patients (average age 65±11.06 years, male 113 (58.2%), female 81 (41.8%) hospitalized at department of Neurology, University Clinical Center tuzla, during the six mounths in 2010. For clinical assessment of agraphia, alexia and acalculia we used Minessota test for differential diagnosis of aphasia’s. Results: Among these acute stroke patients, 59 (30.40%) had alexia, agraphia and acalculia or different combinations of these disorders. two patients (3.4%) had agraphia and acalculia associated with other part of tetrad of GS: fi nger agnosia and left-right disorientation. they both where men, right handed, and cranial computed tomography scan showed ischemic lesion in the left parietal and left temporoparietal lobe. Conclusion: Gerstmann`s syndrome is rare clinical entity, and has the high value in localization and the lesion is mainly localized to angular gyrus of the dominant hemisphere.

BACKGROUND Quality of life assessments are increasingly present in health research. Chronic and progressive illness of a family member unavoidably affects quality of life of a family as a whole. The goals of this study were to gain insight into the family burden of chronic disorders, especially possible differences in family quality of life (FQOL) in families that have members suffering from either schizophrenia or Crohn's disease, and families in which none of the members have chronic somatic or mental illness, as well as to pilot an instrument for this purpose. SUBJECTS AND METHODS The sample consisted of 53 families with a member suffering from schizophrenia, 50 families with a member suffering from Crohn's disease, and 45 families with no identifiable chronic illnesses. An informant from each family underwent a structured face to face interview, using a questionnaire specially adapted from Family Quality of Life Survey, an instrument widely used to assess FQOL in families with members with disabilities, and which addresses nine areas of family life. RESULTS In the domain of health, both groups of families with chronic illnesses believe they have significantly different conditions when compared to members of the Control group. In the Crohn's disease group, families had a great deal more of challenges in accessing healthcare services; and see themselves at a disadvantage when compared to both other groups in the domain of finances. Control group offered lowest rating in the domain of support from others. Overall measures of FQOL show significant variation among the three groups, Crohn's disease group offering lowest ratings, followed by families of mental health service users. CONCLUSIONS Overall, FQOL seems to be lower in families that have members diagnosed with Crohn's disease than in families with members suffering from schizophrenia. Illness-specific studies are required, as well as instruments with stronger psychometric properties and studies of determinants of FQOL. Qualitative approach should be emphasised when studying FQOL related to chronic illnesses.

The main objective of this paper was to determine the relationship between biomechanical parameters of vault flights with respect to new models of initial vault difficulty values in men’s artistic gymnastic. The study sample included vaults (n=64) and models (n=5) from the 2009 Code of Points (CoP) of the Federation International of Gymnastics (FIG). The dependent variable included all difficulty values ranging from 2-7.2 points, while the sample of independent variables included twelve biomechanical parameters. After implementing the regression analysis, it could be established that the best model derived only the second flight phase with 95% of explained variance.

History of World Literature by Milivoj Solar is a comprehensive chronological overview of the basic facts about the literary phenomena of global significance. Relying on the spiritual-historical method of writing literary his-tory, Goethe’s view of world literature as a set of aesthetically valuable liter-ary works that reflect the unity in the diversity of languages and cultures of the world, and the hermeneutic approach to understanding the relationship between the parts and the whole, Professor Solar wrote the history of literature as a story that offers an insight into the history of ideas and the continuity of the development of literary forms at the same time. Thanks to the abundance of clearly arranged relevant facts and short interpretive portraits of individual works, Solar’s History transcends the author’s intention to write a guide for students and becomes, for lucid readers, a starting point for further literary research.

UDK 595.384.1:591.134(282.249 Neretva) Specimens of white-clawed crayfish have been cought during from May to August 2011. The specimens were fished out from the tributaries of the river Neretva: Neretvica, Sistica and Kraljuscica. The study was done on 100 m of waterstream, where an unequal numbers of individuals was determined. 31 individuals was found in river Neretvica, 10 individuals in river Sistica and 4 in river Kraljuscica. Different hydromorphological characteristics of the waterstream have largely contributed to the different population abundance of this crayfish. Morphometric analysis included six parameters: (TL) total length [cm], (W) weight (gr), (ARL) carapace length [cm], (CPW) carapace width [cm], (ROL) rostrum length [cm], (ROW) rostrum width [cm], (CLL) claws length [cm] and (TEL) tail length [cm]. Total body length of the white- clawed crayfish varied from 4.3 to 8. 6cm, while the individual with maximum length was found in river Neretvica. Weight of the individuals varied from 5g to 26g. Weight is the parameter with the highest coefficient of variation where differences in weight were found in the individuals of equal length. According to the shape (length and width) of the rostrum, crayfish from river Neretvica and Kraljuscica had higher similarity than recripocally than with the individuals cought in river Sistica (isosceles triangle). The connection between body length and carapax width had been determined by linear regression, as well as the connection between body length and claws length. Condition index values are higher in males than in females and the male domination was express in all three watercourses, as well as in the overall sample (28males and 17 females).

UDK 630*31/*32:621.936.6(497.6 Vareš)           621.936.6:621.892(497.6 Vareš) Chainsaw is the main tool for work, considering the terrain and soil in our country, in the process of the harvesting, and there is a big chance it will be the main tool in the future too. The goal of the research is to determine fuel and lubricant consumption of the chainsaw Husqvarna 372 XP, during the harvesting and making forest wood assortments, on the area of the Public enterprise forest, Vareš, section 37. During the research, 50 trees of the fir and spruce have been felled. Range of the diameter was from 8 to 76 cm, and the volume of the assortments was 86.16 m3. Volumetric method is applied in the measurement of fuel and lubricants, with precise determination of how much fuel it was in the thanks. Analysis showed that there is a strong correlation between consumption of the fuel and lubricant (L/m3) in relation to the size of the breast height diameter. Average fuel consumption in the process of logging and preparation was 0.104 L/m3, while the average consumption of lubricant was 0.023 L/m3. It is necessary to continue to pay great attention to the rationalization of consumption on fuel and lubricants, as well as reducing their harmful effects on humans and environment (introduction and usage of biodegradable fuels and lubricants).

The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of warm-up strategies on countermovement jump performance. Twenty-nine male college football players (age: 19.4 ± 1.1 years; body height: 179.0 ± 5.1 cm; body mass: 73.1 ± 8.0 kg; % body fat: 11.1 ± 2.7) from the Tuzla University underwent a control (no warm-up) and different warm-up conditions: 1. general warm-up; 2. general warm-up with dynamic stretching; 3. general warm-up, dynamic stretching and passive stretching; 4. passive static stretching; 5. passive static stretching and general warm-up; and, 6. passive static stretching, general warm-up and dynamic stretching. Countermovement jump performance was measured after each intervention or control. Results from one way repeated measures ANOVA revealed a significant difference on warm-up strategies at F (4.07, 113.86) = 69.56, p < 0.001, eta squared = 0.72. Bonferonni post hoc revealed that a general warm-up and a general warm-up with dynamic stretching posted the greatest gains among all interventions. On the other hand, no warm-up and passive static stretching displayed the least results in countermovement jump performance. In conclusion, countermovement jump performance preceded by a general warmup or a general warm-up with dynamic stretching posted superior gains in countermovement jump performance.
