ABSTRACT Purpose : To investigate state- and trait-like risk factors leading to childhood eye injuries controlling for the between-subject difference. This study measured socioeconomic, environmental, behavioral, and injury event characteristics to identify eye injury protective and risk factors. Methods : A retrospective case-crossover study including patients aged 0–18 years old (y.o.) with severe eye trauma treated at the Canton Hospital Zenica between 2011 and 2017 was conducted. One case time point was at the time of injury, and two control time points 1 month before the injury and a month before the survey. Results : Of 36 patients meeting the criteria, four were excluded, resulting in 32 cases and 64 controls. The mean age was 10.79 in males (77.8%) and 11 y.o. in females (22.2%). In univariate GEE logistic regression unusual activity had odds of 17.25 (95%CI = 6.97, 42.70), working/chores vs.running activity odds of 6.60 (95%CI = 1.71, 25.46), very active level vs.an intermediate child activity level odds of 5.26 (1/0.19, 95%CI = 1.75, 16.67) no supervision odds of 2.63 (1/0.38, 95%CI = 1.45, 4.76) and less than 7 hours of sleep odds of 4.69 (95%CI = 1.06, 20.77) of sustaining an eye injury. Using the quasi-likelihood approach and QICu as an indicator, the best model yielded odds of getting eye injured = 0.59 + 19.35*engaging in unusual activity+0.21*supervised by an adult person+0.84*playing+3.04*working within the households+0.22*other activity. Conclusions : Giving the best model to predict injuries, the combined strategies of teaching, modifying the environment, and the watchful supervision present a preventive triad that needs to be further explored and encouraged in practice.

Sport is one of the world’s most important resources and an indispensable part of international culture. Men and women participate in most sports from football, basketball, boxing to extreme sports. The aim of this paper is to research gender equality in many aspects of sport, from equal pay, sponsorship agreements, to scholarships as state support to talented athletes. The paper presents a theoretical framework for defining sport and its significance. The media attitude towards sports is discussed and the symbiosis relationship between sports and the media is emphasized. The focus of the paper is on women in sports and their progress towards gender equality in all sports activities from participation, coaching positions to management. An analysis of the results of the survey was done. The survey was conducted on a representative sample of 201 respondents. The questionnaire was on sports monitoring and key issues on equality in the choice of sports, media attention, equal pay and sponsorship agreements as well as on prejudice against female athletes and career duration and monitoring of women’s football given the growing popularity of the sport.

Perennial plant Mentha pulegium L. (pennyroyal, Lamiaceae) can be found in Europe and Mediterranean. In areas where it thrives, M. pulegium is used in nutrition and as medicinal plant. Essential oil of M. pulegium is also a frequent constituent of foods and fragrances, because of mint‐like odor. Regarding the use of M. pulegium in traditional medicine and nutrition, as well as fact that essential oils are potential sources of bioactive components, this study was conducted to examine the chemical composition of essential oil of M. pulegium wild growing in Bosnia and Herzegovina and its biological activity. The chemical profile testing was made using GC/MS and GC/FID technique. Potential of cholinesterase inhibition was tested by Ellman's assay. The antioxidant activity was tested by DPPH and FRAP assay. The dominant components in analyzed oil were pulegone 54.4 %, p‐menthone 14.0 % and piperitenone 12.8 %. Good antioxidant activity and moderate cholinesterase inhibition potential of tested essential oil indicates to possibility of its use in treatment of diseases related to free radicals, Alzheimer disease and as lipid protecting antioxidant.

Abstract Background and study aims There are no reliable data to predict which patients with gastroparesis (GP) would benefit the most from gastric peroral endoscopic pyloromyotomy (G-POEM). The aim of the present study was to assess whether antro-duodenal motility patterns and pyloric distensibility can predict the outcome of G-POEM in patients with decompensated GP. Patients and methods In an open-label study, patients with GP and refractory symptoms were eligible for treatment with G-POEM if treatment attempts according to a standardized stepwise protocol had failed. Baseline assessment included Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI), C13-octanoic gastric emptying breath test and high-resolution antro-duodenal manometry. Pyloric distensibility using EndoFlip measurements was assessed at baseline and 3 months after the procedure. Explorative analyses were performed on potential predictors of response using logistic regression analyses. Results Twenty-four patients with decompensated GP underwent G-POEM. At baseline, 78.3 % and 61.9 % of patients showed antral hypomotility and neuropathic motor patterns, respectively. The technical success rate was 100 % (24/24). Mean GCSI improved significantly at 3, 6, and 12 months after G-POEM (P = 0.01). Median distensibility index (DI) improved significantly as compared with baseline (7.5 [6.9;11.7] vs. 5.3[3.1;8.1], P = 0.004). A significant correlation was found between clinical response at 6 months and pyloric DI improvement (P = 0.003). No potential predictors of clinical response after G-POEM could be identified in an explorative analysis. Conclusions G-POEM improved pyloric distensibility patterns in patients with decompensated GP. Clinical response at 6 months after G-POEM was associated with pyloric distensibility improvement. However, no potential predictors of response could be identified from either antro-duodenal motility patterns or pyloric distensibility.

Laws and ethics require that before conducting human clinical trials, a new material, device or drug may have to undergo animal testing in order to minimize the health risks to humans, unless suitable supporting grandfather data already exists. The Preferred Reporting Items for Animal Studies in Endodontology (PRIASE) 2021 guidelines were developed exclusively for the specialty of Endodontology by integrating and adapting the ARRIVE (Animals in Research: Reporting In Vivo Experiments) guidelines and the Clinical and Laboratory Images in Publications (CLIP) principles using a validated consensus-based methodology. The implementation of the PRIASE 2021 guidelines will reduce potential sources of bias and thus improve the quality, accuracy, reproducibility, completeness and transparency of reports describing animal studies in Endodontology. The PRIASE 2021 guidelines consist of a checklist with 11 domains and 43 individual items and a flowchart. The aim of the current document is to provide an explanation for each item in the PRIASE 2021 checklist and flowchart and is supplemented with examples from the literature in order for readers to understand their significance and to provide usage guidance. A link to the PRIASE 2021 explanation and elaboration document and PRIASE 2021 checklist and flowchart is available on the Preferred Reporting Items for study Designs in Endodontology (PRIDE) website (http://pride-endodonticguidelines.org/priase/).

Abstract In [20], Rohrlich proved a modular analog of Jensen’s formula. Under certain conditions, the Rohrlich–Jensen formula expresses an integral of the log-norm $\log \Vert f \Vert $ of a ${\mathrm {PSL}}(2,{\mathbb {Z}})$ modular form f in terms of the Dedekind Delta function evaluated at the divisor of f. In [2], the authors re-interpreted the Rohrlich–Jensen formula as evaluating a regularized inner product of $\log \Vert f \Vert $ and extended the result to compute a regularized inner product of $\log \Vert f \Vert $ with what amounts to powers of the Hauptmodul of $\mathrm {PSL}(2,{\mathbb {Z}})$ . In the present article, we revisit the Rohrlich–Jensen formula and prove that in the case of any Fuchsian group of the first kind with one cusp it can be viewed as a regularized inner product of special values of two Poincaré series, one of which is the Niebur–Poincaré series and the other is the resolvent kernel of the Laplacian. The regularized inner product can be seen as a type of Maass–Selberg relation. In this form, we develop a Rohrlich–Jensen formula associated with any Fuchsian group $\Gamma $ of the first kind with one cusp by employing a type of Kronecker limit formula associated with the resolvent kernel. We present two examples of our main result: First, when $\Gamma $ is the full modular group ${\mathrm {PSL}}(2,{\mathbb {Z}})$ , thus reproving the theorems from [2]; and second when $\Gamma $ is an Atkin–Lehner group $\Gamma _{0}(N)^+$ , where explicit computations of inner products are given for certain levels N when the quotient space $\overline {\Gamma _{0}(N)^+}\backslash \mathbb {H}$ has genus zero, one, and two.

Let X be a smooth, compact, projective Kähler variety and D be a divisor of a holomorphic form F , and assume that D is smooth up to codimension two. Let ω be a Kähler form on X and KX the corresponding heat kernel which is associated to the Laplacian that acts on the space of smooth functions on X. Using various integral transforms of KX , we will construct a meromorphic function in a complex variable s whose special value at s = 0 is the log-norm of F with respect to μ. In the case when X is the quotient of a symmetric space, then the function we construct is a generalization of the so-called elliptic Eisenstein series which has been defined and studied for finite volume Riemann surfaces.
