ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHIC AND HEMODYNAMIC CHANGES IN ANESTHETIZED DOGS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF GLUCAGON
Scientific researches considering the effects of glucagon on cardiovascular system show that glucagon has a certain cardiostimulative potential. The fact that glucagon accomplishes its cardiostimulative effects by activating its own, highly specific glucagonic receptors is of most importance. That's the reason why we've wanted to give more details about the effects that glucagon has on cardiovascular system in terms of having more precise image of its effects on hemodynamics and changes which can be seen on electrocardiogram. The experiment included six dogs treated with intravenous glucagon injection. Electrocardiograph and hemodynamic parameters (middle arterial pressure, central venous pressure and heart st nd rd th th th th th frequency) have been recorded in 1 , 2 , 3 , 5 , 10 , 20 , 30 and 40 minute. Electrocardiograph and heart frequency have been recorded by continuous monitoring. Middle arterial pressure has been recorded through catheter placed into a. femoralis while central venous pressure has been recorded through central venous catheter placed into v. femoralis. Having received the intravenous injection, glucagon shows extremely positive chronotropic effect, followed by ephemeral increase of middle arterial pressure, while central venous pressure has a significant decrease. Having received intravenous injection, P-R, Q-Tand T-Pinterval have been significantly shorten.

ALPHA LIPOIC LIPOIC ACID IN CLINICAL ACID IN CLINICAL APPLICA APPLICATION
Alpha lipoic acid is the most efficient of all known antioxidants for its lipo and hydrosolubility which enable easy penetrability in cytoplasm making its protection of free reactive radicals, energetic metabolism, regulation of genetic expresion etc. It has wide application in prevention and in therapy of diabetic angiopathy, neuropathy, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, neurodegenerative disease, lesion, (insufficiency) of liver, HIV, intoxication with hard metals, mycotoxins etc. An important proprety of lipoic acid is its possibility to prevent or remove lesions which are caused by application aminogycosides and haloperidol (ototoxicity, nephrotoxicity) according to its wide application. R isomer of lipoic acid is physiological substance presented in organism which synthesize in in liver enabling its its application in relatively high dose for a longer period of time.

THE EVALUATION OF FUNCTIONAL CONDITION OF PATIENTS SICK OF COXARTHROSIS
Artrosis as degenerative rheumatic discase of joints, which is the most often with older people, and if it is not cured adequotety it brings to the serious defects. The air of warr is to evaluate functional condition of people sick of hip osteoarthrosis by using two standardised questionnaires for the hip osteoarthrosis. Material and methods: The examination included 100 patients with hip osteoarthrosis (73 women and 23 men) whase diagnosis was set on the basis of ACR criteria. The result : In the group of 100 patients (73 women and 27 men) with average old of 58,87 years and average lasting of sickness 8,28 years from which 77 had bilateral representation of hip osteoarthrosis and 23 unilateral representation of hip osteoarthrosis showed these results of funcional tests: a) averagevalne of Womac score is 50,18 (min 13,00 max 77,00) that is in the medium category of funcional disableness, b) average volne of Lequesne score is 14,12 (min 4,00 max 23,40) that shows high degrece of functional of functional disableness. Both questionnaires are mutvally correlated with a higs degree of statistic importance in the whale score (r= 0,454; p< 0,0001) and so in the subsections: pain (r= 0,540; p<0,0001) and physical functional scale r= 0,728; p< 0,0001). The intensity of pain also correlated with time of step and Womac score (r= 0,454; p< 0,0001), and with the lasting of sickness, female sex, and there wasnt statisticaly important coreelation with Lequesne score (r= 0,215; p= 0,08). Radiologic findig correlated with reduction of the moveness amplitudes, the time of step, the lasting of sickness, the of the patient, Womac score (p< 0,05), and it isnt correlated with Lequesne score. The reduction of the moveness of amplitudes is the hips correlated with radiographic presentation, the time of step, Womac and Lequesne score, localization, the age of patients and using of help materials. Conculsion: The valne of both indexes correlate with the usual clinical indications of coxarthrosis progression, and Womac index shows better correlation with radiologic progression of sickness than with Lequesne index.

SOCIO-PEDIATRICS ASPECTS OF CILDREN’S ACUTE ORGANOPHOSPHATE POISONING
It is argued that the easy availability and widespread use of highly hazardous organophosphate compounds (OPC) is the most important reason for this high number of poisoning. In this study socio pediatrics aspects of children¢s acute intoxications OPC were investigated.Data collected included age, gender, time, rout of åxposure, place of accident, first aid before admission. Àll were do to accidental event attempted suicide cases. Acute OP poisoning is a the important cause of morbidity and mortality and represent serious condition that needs rapid diagnosis and tretman because. Therapy should be started as early as possible beginning from primary and secondary level so undesirable consequences can be avoided.

INFLUENCE OF ARTERIOVENOUS FISTULAE FOR HAEMODIALYSIS ON THE OCCURRENCE HEART FAILURE - CASE REPORT
It is known that arteriovenous fistula for hemodialysis has an unfavorable impact of dialysis patients but their exact role in the development of heart failure was not clear enough. The paper presents a patient who is on chronic hemodialysis program is nine years, in which there was a clear clinical symptoms and signs of heart weakness, probably aided by a pronounced flow through arteriovenous fistula. Left ventricular hypertrophy due to volume of arteriovenous fistula, is not the only reason for the emergence of global heart failure.

POSTERIOR CORTICAL ATROPHY: A CASE REPORT
Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) is a slowly progressive dementia characterized by an early onset of visual agnosia, followed by components of Balint's syndrome, Gerstmann's syndrome, and transcortical sensory aphasia. The most striking neuropsychological feature of the syndrome is the dissociation between prominent visuspatial disfunction and relatively preserved memory, personality and insight. PCA is a rare syndrome. Autopsied brains of PCA patients have shown a neuropathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). PCA is not just AD with prominent visual deficits but a distinct clinical syndrome. Neuropsychological examination is fundamental for the diagnosis. It is very important to assess visuspatial functions. Here we present a case of slowly progressive dementia with visuspatial disturbances and apraxia but relatively preserved memory functions, personality and insight.

EXHUMATION OFMASSIVE GRAVES AND SINGLE GRAVES ON THE TERRITORYOFKOSOVO AND METOHIJA(2001-2004)
Identification of victims during war and post war conflicts means for The Republic of Serbia the most important professional, scientific and ethical investigation. Before the process of identification forensics do the exhumation, very important part of process of which depends successful identification. On the Kosovo and Metohija, from 2001 till 2004. forensics did exhumation in some massive graves and in many single graves. Experiences of experts proove that the process of exhumation is very important becouse in that first phase collecting of evidence through forensic investigations have made “disappeared” victims “visible”, empowered survivors, corrected the historical records, and exposed cover-ups. Through forensic investigations including the identification of all injuries on the dead bodies, we faced with the marks and circumstances which followed the death under existing conditions on Kosovo and Metohija. Forensics promotes democratization and rule of law.

THE ROLE OF A FAMILY IN POLITOXICOMANIA OXICOMANIA
Any need of a drug addict to conform to his drug dependence is eliminated by a successfully accomplished closed system of addictive behaviour and circular change of the state of his mind. His addictive behaviour represents the so- called indestructible homeostasis of a drug - addict' s family. Meeting the drug- user's needs deprives him from any desire to deal with his own personality and behaviour. Only in cases when the addictive behaviour is thwarted by requests and even aggressive behaviour of the parents and other members of the society (environment) who ask for explanation, the sense of menace and effect of projected pursuer is convincingly achieved, which can often lead to aggression.Using the GRADIR scale, the investigation has reported that drug addicts' families are not as defective in sharing their emotions as they are defective in their structure, which intensifies irregularity that leads to drug use. If family were better structured, its member might not turn to drug.

L-CARNITINE IN CLINICAL APPLICATION
L-carnitine is assorted with non-vitamin nutritives (metavitamines) on the grounds of importance to the living process, while itb similar to aminoacids in terms of structure. It has multistructural role in functioning of an organism while one of the most important and best investigated roles is the sphere of energizing metabolism because it is needed for the transport of the longchain fatty acids into the mitochondria where they are subject to a β oxidation. It has widespread clinical application in prevention and therapy of: genetic and secondarycarnithine deficiency, cardiovascular disease, lipid metabolism disorder, carbohydrate metabolism disorder, aciduria of organic acids, renal and liver insuficiency, neuropathy, miopathy, as well as the means for improvent of fitness capacites of sportsmen. L-carnitine is crucial part of organism of mamals, therefore it can be applied in relatively big doses whereby it requires no detoxication in liver, on the contrary, it significaty increases its detoxication capacites.
