Cervical and breast cancer are usually type of tumor that are found among women in fertile age in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Final goal was to establish frequency of risk factors that are responsible for development of those types of cancer as well as establish possibility of prevention, according to the existence of each risk factor. Research was conducted through out surveys among women which were selected by accident. The amount of questioned women is 200, and out of that number 70 (35%) were out of rural environment, 130 (65%) were from urban environment which led to statistic- processed information. Variables that were defining our interviews were: age, marital status, education level, stay during the war in B&H, number of given birth, consistency of gynecological examinations, changes that were found during the medical (gynecological) examination, number of sexual partners, usage of contraception, existence of sexual infections, usage of tobacco, existence of genetic factor. The most important fact is that over 50% of interviewees do not visit gynecologist, and that the gynecological infections are frequent. Usage of tobacco is in high percent founded among interviewees from urban environment (85%).

Deiscencia de sutura em anastomose intestinal e a principal complicacao depois da cirurgia. Independentemente das melhoriasnas tecnicas cirurgicas, os vazamentos na anastomose colonica frequentemente ocorrem, resultando em alta morbidade emortalidade, principalmente quando nao e possivel o preparo intestinal. Este trabalho teve como finalidade testar a submucosade intestino delgado de suino, conservada em glicerina, como protetor intraluminal (PIL) de anastomoses colonicas em caes.Foram operadas 16 cadelas adultas, com peso medio de 13,8 kg, que foram distribuidas em tres grupos: um grupo controlecom seis animais, e dois grupos de teste, sendo um composto de seis e o outro de quatro animais. A comparacao entre osgrupos teste e controle envolveu a mensuracao do tempo cirurgico e, no pos-operatorio, avaliacao clinica, colonoscopica e dobolo fecal. Nao houve diferenca significativa entre os tempos cirurgicos. Nao houve alteracao clinica relevante em nenhum dosanimais, nem diferenca entre os exames colonoscopicos dos grupos controle e teste. Fundamentando-se nos resultados,conclui-se que o protetor intraluminal nao causa danos a anastomose e este permanece fixado a submucosa por um periodode tres dias (periodo critico da cicatrizacao colonica), podendo, entao, ser considerado uma nova, facil e barata tecnica deprotecao intraluminal.

We associate a Taylor tower supplied by the calculus of the embedding functor to the space of long knots and study its cohomology spectral sequence. The combinatorics of the spectral sequence along the line of total degree zero leads to chord diagrams with relations as in finite type knot theory. We show that the spectral sequence collapses along this line and that the Taylor tower represents a universal finite type knot invariant.

Abstract We describe Taylor towers for spaces of knots arising from Goodwillie–Weiss calculus of the embedding functor and extend the configuration space integrals of Bott and Taubes from spaces of knots to the stages of the towers. We show that certain combinations of integrals, indexed by trivalent diagrams, yield cohomology classes of the stages of the tower, just as they do for ordinary knots.
