In early June 2023, we studied the Lepidoptera fauna of the upper course of the Neretva River, the valley of the Zalomka River in Nevesinjsko Polje and the Morina plateau between the two. In total, we registered 237 species, 63 butterflies and 174 moths. We found 53 butterfly species in the area of the Upper Neretva River, 37 in Nevesinjsko polje and five on the Morina plateau, along with 156, 40 and 20 moth species, respectively. In this study, we increased the total number of registered Lepidoptera species for the area, from 251 found in the same region during Neretva Science Week 2022, to a total of 414 (93 butterflies and 321 moths). Eight species have the status of Near Threatened and one is categorised as Data Deficient according to IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Two species are listed as Vulnerable in the Red List of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and three species are listed on the Annex II of the EU Habitats Directive. Our findings present a much-needed basic knowledge on Lepidoptera of the region, which is important for conservation activities.

<p>This paper aims to present a methodological framework for the development and validation of the<br />Effective Ergonomic Load Coefficient (KEEO) model, an approach that seeks to quantify total<br />workload by integrating physical, mental, organizational, and technical and technological factors.<br />Current methods, such as RULA, REBA, OCRA, SWAT, and JCQ, address only individual aspects of<br />work and thus limit insight into the entirety of ergonomic risk. KEEO is based on a multi-criteria<br />integration of methodologies for determining weights and factors that have been identified as<br />determinants of ergonomic workload. Validation includes assessment of the content validity of the<br />questionnaire, analytical boundary checking, sensitivity analysis, and Monte Carlo simulation. The<br />results obtained show stable linear behavior and proportionality between components, suggesting<br />that KEEO can serve as a basis for future integrated ergonomic workload indices. This<br />methodological work is the result of work on a doctoral dissertation on the topic "Multi-functional<br />analysis of effective workplace workload".</p>

The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the IGD-20 scale, developed by Pontes et al. (2014) for the assessment of Internet gaming disorder, which was translated in this study using the back-translation method and administered to a sample of gamers and eSports players in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The sample consisted of 278 participants (82% gamers and 18% eSports players), predominantly male, with an average age of 27 years. Item analysis demonstrated satisfactory discriminative power and high item-total correlations for all items. The overall reliability of the IGD- 20 scale was exceptionally high (α = 0.965). Exploratory factor analysis initially suggested a three-factor solution; however, this solution was neither interpretable nor consistent with the original structure of the instrument. A unidimensional solution, which has also been supported in recent research, proved to be the most interpretable and accounted for over 61% of the variance. In conclusion, the IGD-20 scale demons

Throughout history, hospitals had been treated as sterile places used exclusively for providing medical treatment to patients. Little attention was however paid to the different ways those spaces can affect people occupying them, more specifically, through the senses. The things patients see, smell, touch, or feel all affect their well-being, leading to either an accelerated recovery, or prolonged hospital stays. Furthermore, besides a plethora of research showcasing the potential of incorporating sensory elements into healthcare architecture, the results have not been integrated into concrete examples to their full potential. The purpose of this review is to identify the effects of certain sensory elements, investigate the ways in which they had been incorporated into healthcare architecture, and recognize gaps in existing literature. Additionally, this review aims to propose ideas for further research in order to enrich the existing research connecting the senses with architecture.

Hospitals are environments in which patients experience heightened physical and psychological vulnerability. Despite this, architectural design has prioritized clinical efficiency over human-centered spatial experience. Increasing evidence suggests that the built environment influences stress levels, comfort, and overall well-being. This study examines how the overall sensory environment of hospital shapes users’ experiences, focusing on general sensory perception rather than isolated sensory elements. A survey was conducted among hospital users, including patients, visitors, and staff (n=223). The quantitative survey addressed demographic characteristics, sensory perceptions, and general impressions of the hospital environment. This paper analyses responses related to the total sensory experience of hospital spaces using descriptive statistical methods. The results indicate that most respondents perceived the hospital environment as having moderate to high impact on their overall experience. Additionally, the majority expressed a clear preference for hospitals designed with a focus on sensory comfort. These findings highlight the importance of integrating sensory-aware design strategies in healthcare architecture to support well-being and improve the overall hospital experience.

<p>Phytoremediation with wild plant species could be an environmentally friendly and economical<br />solution. Selected wild plants like mint, oregano, chamomile, nettle, and St. John&rsquo;s wort, from rural<br />areas in Bosnia and Herzegovina, were collected, lyophilized, and acid-digested for heavy metals<br />analysis. Nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), cadmium (Cd), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), manganese<br />(Mn), and lead (Pb) were determined by using an Atomic Absorption Spectrometry-flame<br />technique. Results showed that some of the investigated wild plants have a high content of<br />multiple heavy metals. This work showed that collected wild plants can accumulate heavy metals<br />and could be used for the phytoremediation of multi-metal-contaminated soil.</p>

In this paper we analyse and compare two modern methods of deformation analysis: the squared Msplit method and the absolute Msplit method. The comparison is made on cases of simulated and actually measured horizontal geodetic networks. The squared Msplit method is based on the assumptions of the least square method, while the absolute Msplit method is based on the assumptions of the least absolute deviation method. For each method, we developed a computer programme and used it to calculate point displacements in both a simulated and a measured 2D geodetic network. The purpose of this article is to compare the displacements. The results of the two methods differ by up to about one centimetre in the simulated network and by less than two centimetres in the actually measured geodetic network.

The aim of this retrospective study was to examine the association between the quality of life of mothers of children with cerebral palsy and various sociodemographic characteristics, as well as to analyze the relationship between mothers’ subjective assessments of their quality of life and the psychosocial functioning of their children.The sample consisted of 61 mothers and their children diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Data were collected using the PedsQL™ 2.0 Family Impact Module and the PedsQL™ 4.0 Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory, both completed by the mothers. Socioeconomic status was assessed using the Hollingshead Index. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics and nonparametric tests, including Spearman’s correlation, and were conducted using IBM SPSS Statistics 25.The results indicated that sociodemographic factors had a limited impact on mothers’ quality of life, whereas the psychosocial functioning of the child significantly influenced the mothers’ daily lives. These findings highlight the need for comprehensive support that addresses the emotional and social dimensions of children's health in order to improve the overall well-being of their mothers.Keywords: cerebral palsy, mothers, quality of life, psychosocial functioning, socioeconomic factors, caregivers.

This scientific research paper examines the connection between the use of social networks and the presence of internalized and externalized behavioral disorders in children and adolescents. By using multiple regression analysis, the effects of addiction tothe Internet and social networks, time spent on the Internet and the frequency of using social networks on the problems of children and young people were investigated. The results show that predictors related to the use of social networks explain 12% of the variance of internalized behavioral disorders and 10% of externalized ones. Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that the abuse of the Internet and social networks has a significant impact on the appearance of anxiety, depression, aggressiveness and impulsivity. The work points to the need for preventive measures and education of children, parents and teachers about the responsible use of digital technologies. Key words:social networks, internet addiction, behavioral disorders, internalized problems

The aim of this study was to examine the extentto which parents use artificial intelligence (AI) as a source of information about child health and development, as well as to analyze the influence of age and educational level on the frequency of AI use. A cross-sectional study was conducted on a sampleof 400 parents using a structured electronic questionnaire. The study analyzed the frequency of AI use, trust in AI and experts, and the association between demographic characteristics and the use of digital information sources. Overall, 52.5% of parents reported using AI tools to obtain information about child development. Younger parents and those with higher levels of education used these tools significantly more often. Parents with higher education had a fourteen-fold higher likelihood of using AI compared to respondents with only primary education. Most parents expressed moderate to high trust in AI, but at the same time, 83.8% believed that AI cannot replace professionals. The findings indicate that AI is becoming an important source of information among parents, particularly among younger and highly educated individuals. Based on the obtained results regarding parents’ attitudes toward AI technologies, these tools have potential as a supplementary resource for initial information seeking; however, professional judgment remains irreplaceable. The data provided by parents also highlight the need for the development of medically validated and regulated AI tools, as well as education on their safe and responsible use.Keywords: artificial intelligence, parents, education, trust, digital information-seeking.

Introduction: Job satisfaction of nurses is an important indicator of the safety and quality of healthcare and professional efficiency. Its level directly affects employee motivation and patient satisfaction. It is determined by financial and organizational factors, job content, and interpersonal relationships. The aim of this research is to assess the level of job satisfaction among nurses in public health institutions in Canton Sarajevo and to identify the factors that shape job satisfaction in this professional group to the greatest extent. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from May to June 2025 on a sample of 504 nurses. The job satisfaction survey questionnaire was used to collect data. The overall score was classified into dissatisfaction, ambivalence, and satisfaction, and the associations with sociodemographic and work characteristics were assessed with the Chi-square test (p < 0.05). Results: Almost half of the respondents were dissatisfied with their job (47.6%), whereas 38.5% reported ambivalent attitudes and 13.9% were satisfied. Job satisfaction was significantly associated with length of service, compatibility of work with education, management function, working hours, type of institution, psychological job demands, and income level (p < 0.05). No statistically significant associations were found with gender, age, marital status, number of children, level of education, or job changes (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Job satisfaction among nurses stems from job content and relationships, and dissatisfaction from financial and organizational factors. Priority measures include fair valuation of work, clear reward systems, and development support to improve healthcare outcomes.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation and destruction of cartilage, as well as by extra-articular manifestations. Rheumatoid nephropathy is a common complication of RA and its principal target is the renal corpuscle. Vitamin D and its analogs exert immunomodulatory actions throughout the body due to the widespread of their receptors. Our study aimed to compare the effects of cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) and alfacalcidol on renal corpuscle changes in pristane-induced RA model following a 28-day treatment, using geometric morphometrics. Forty female Wistar rats (190–210 g; 12–13 weeks old) were randomly assigned to four groups: the control (Cont) group (n = 10) received saline i.c., the PIA group (n = 10) was administered pristane i.c., PIA-ALF group (n = 10) was administered pristane i.c. and alfacalcidol orally, and the PIA-CH group (n = 10) was injected i.c. with pristane and received cholecalciferol orally. Pristane administration was used for RA induction. At the end of the experiment, the left kidneys were removed and processed by standard histological procedures for geometric morphometric analysis. Geometric morphometric analysis demonstrated that, compared with the control group, the architecture of the renal corpuscles was altered in the PIA (p < 0.0001) and PIA-CH (p = 0.0065) groups. In contrast, no statistically significant differences were observed in the PIA-ALF group (p = 0.3011). Geometric morphometric analysis demonstrated that alfacalcidol, but not cholecalciferol, exertedaprotective effect on the renal corpuscle architecture in pristane-induced rheumatoid arthritis in rats.

Objectives: Our work aimed to compare two strategic approaches in defining efficient personal dietary and physical activity plans based on available data. Methods: Energy imbalance between calories consumed and calories expended is the elementary cause of obesity and overweight and can be addressed with population based guidelines and recommendations for personalized dietary and physical activity plan methodologies. Two independent professionals in nutrition and physical coaching made a parallel set of personal plans for 15 participants who voluntarily asked for their dietary and physical activity plan. One professional used physical measurement and self-reported data while the second used genetic profiling data in addition. Main differences were observed in more specific plans for dietary restrictions in calorie type intake and type of endurance training that was feasible only when genetic data were taken into account.  Results: Out of 15 participants, 9 of them were into the category of obese or overweight. 46,7 % of them did not have any specific dietary regime, 73,33 % hade sedentary job while 53,3 % of them had regular physical activities 2 or 3 times per week. Discussion: Compared to the parameter "frequency of exercise" (using Interrater kappa agreement test), the value of the kappa parameter of -0.15 was obtained, which indicates a negative match between the two tested methods. Conclusions: Our study implies that informed and guided use of widely accessible genetic profiling and its standardized use could significantly contribute to the specificity of personalized dietary and physical activity plans.
