INCIDENCE OF STRESS-ULCЕR IN SEPTIC PATIENTS

Serious metabolic diseases and infections, such as sepsis, may lead to the occurrence of stress ulcers. Unfortunately, in our hospitals, the stress ulcer is often diagnosed as a separate disease, not as the manifestation of the existing stress status of the patient. Therefore, the goal of this pilot study was to establish the incidence of stress ulcers in sepsis patients treated at the Infective Disease Clinic. Patients treated at the Military Medical Academy Infective Disease Clinic during 4 month period, who experienced acute bleeding, verified gastroscopically, were subjected to retrospective analysis. Five out of 344 hospitalized patients had serious hemorrhages. Out of a total of 21 patients diagnosed with bacterial sepsis, acute gastric bleeding was verified gastroscopically in three, or 14.28 percent. To obtain more data, prospective long-term study, wich would include greater number of septic patients, should be conducted.

SOME ASPECTS OF FAMILY PLANNING - FROM MISCARRIAGE TO HEALTH EDUCATION

Family planning is a civilizational value that should lead to a reduction of abortions, especially abortion as a method of family planning. Contraception or pregnancy prevention is the most purposeful way of birth control. It includes all the means and methods to a certain point, and certainly before the implantation of blastocyst, they stop the natural process of reproduction. The aim of our study is to analyze the application of some method of contraception among women who had and who had an early abortion in the sample and to analyze the application of some method of contraception in the study group of women and their correlation with the attendance of education in counseling contraceptive after intentional interruption of early pregnancy. A significant change in the use of contraceptive after pregnancy termination, and conducted training in family planning, is that the increased incidence of permanent contraceptive methods, compared to their occasional use.

COMPARE AND EXAMINE FIBRINOGEN LEVEL IN PATIENTS WITH DIABETES MELLITUS TYPE 2

The middle of last century it was established that the increased value registered fibrinogen in patients with coronary disease, hypertension, peripheral artery disease, patients with diabetes mellitus. Fibrinogen also participate in the earliest stages of atherosclerosis.Task of our research was to compare the level of fibrinogen in patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus without complications, and manifested in patients with apparent chronic complications as well as the correlation of fibrinogen with the parameters of metabolic control. Included 64 respondents, a close age divided into 4 groups: control group, people of type 2 diabetes mellitus without complications, people with microvascular complications, and people with macrovascular complications.The highest average value of fibrinogen in the blood we had in the group with diabetes mellitus without complications (3.47±0.26 g/l) and the lowest mean value in the control group (2.87±0.15 g/l). It is a test of correlation showed a strong correlation with the value of fibrinogen level of development of chronic complications.

VIRAL HEPATITIS A IN MUNICIPALITY OF PRIJEDOR

Acute viral hepatitis A (HAV) is a benign self-limited disease, which does not become chronical and does not require obligatory hospitalization. It's an intestinal infectious disease with a dominantly fecal-oral way of transmission. Endemic epidemic appearance of this disease on the municipality of Prijedor, with a very high level of incidence, from the sixties of the 20-th century, has put the viral hepatitis among the priority problems of epidemiologic practice. During the period 1965-2007. in Prijedor there were 5707 registered cases of HAV contaminated people and three death cases. From 1990 it has been noticed an epidemiologic regression of HAV followed by its complete absence during the period 1997-2007. Studies of reasons of HAV regression have been conducted by a descriptive-epidemiologic method according to sex, age, ethnic affiliation, place of residence, seasonal appearance of disease, and the way of water supply. It has been determined that there is no statistically important differences among contaminated people according to sex, differences in other treated parameters correspond to the data from literature [1,2]. Seroconversion has been proved in 53 persons or 55,2% of tested people. Percentage of sero-positive people was 93,7% among people older than 60 years of age and 79,2% among the refugee population. Based on studies, the epidemiologic regression of HAV from the 90-ties of the 20th century, is explained by the fact that this disease appears in the interepidemic period, that there is a significant collective immunity of population with the HA virus, and the most important, the basic epidemiologic factors which contribute to the spreading of disease have been removed - the majority of population live in the urban and suburban areas where a hygienic water supply has been provided for. Also the customs and habits of population have been significantly changed.

HISTOPATHOLOGICAL COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE PROSTATIC INTRAEPITHELIAL NEOPLASIAAND PROSTATIC CARCINOMA IN THE BIOPSY SPECIMENS

Prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) is putative premalignant lesions of the prostate. This lesion has role as precuror of prostatic carcinoma (PC), predictive role for PC and high coexistens with PC. Existed two grade of PIN: low grade PIN (LGPIN) and high grade PIN (HGPIN). PC is most important malignacy in man and has high mortality in male. The aim of research was to invastigated morphological comparative patterns of HGPIN and PC. We analyzed biopsy material of 299 cases (cs). We used histopathological metods of investigation. We found HGPIN in 42 cs (14.0%) with mean age 66.3 y and PC in 35 cs (11.7%) with mean age 70.7 y. HGPIN was most frequently in the seventh decade of life (54.8%), and PC in the eight decade (45.4%). Four common pattern of HGPIN were identified: tufting (78.6%), micropapillary (72.8%), cribriform (16.6%) and flat (9.5%). In 21 from 35 cs (60%) with PC was coexistent HGPIN. HGPIN we found in the periferial part in the 22 cs. (52.4%) and in the periurthral part of the prostate in the 12 Cs. (28.6%). HGPIN were multicentric in the 22 cs. (52.4%), in the 15 cs. (68.2%) in the periferial part, and in the 7 cs (31.8%) in the periurethral part of the prostate. PC in the 22 cs (62.9%) was localized in the periferial, and in the 7 cs in the periuretral portion of the prostate. PC was multicentric in 28.6%. Important histological patterns for distinction HGPIN i PC are: disruption of basal cell layer, perineural invasion, mitotic figures, multiple nucleoli, collagenous micronodules, infiltrative growth. HGPIN and PC we found in sufficient percentage. Both lesion were most frequently multicentric, periferial localisation and coexistent. Because of that these lesions needed serious clinical and histological investigations for patients.

"C E A P" CLASSIFICA CLASSIFICATION CHRONIC TION CHRONIC VENOUS DISEASE VENOUS DISEASE

Chronic vein insufficiency (CVI) is abnormal functioning of a system of veins resulted from incompetence of vein valves, with or without vein obstruction covering both surface and deep veins. Nowadays there are various standars in the diagnosis of CVI and variations of treatment modalities, which increases the importance of occuracy and foundations of the diagnosis. In the consideration of diagnostic needs of patients with CVI, CEAP classification is suggested. This classification defines clinic categories, etiology of problem, covered anatomical segments and pathological mechanisms of CVI.

THE IMPACT OF THE FACTORS AT RISK IN DEVELOPMENT OF THE ACUTE CEREBRAL STROKE, ATHEROSCLEROTIC INDEX FOLLOW UPAND IIGM

In the most prosperous countries, cerebrovascular diseases takes the high third leading position in mortality rate of the population, therefore justifying the name of a ,,mass killer,, speaking of which, its incidence represents un important not only medical but and socially economic problem (only 2-20% sick ones are able to continue with its previous work) Cerebral stroke incidence is 150-200 cases on 100000 persons per year (1). Taking in consideration all the mentioned, we took as the goal of the study, to investigate the impact of the factors at risk, in ethiopatogenesis of the cerebral stroke. Our study was carried out on 40 patients with acute cerebral stroke hospitalized on the Neurology Clinic, KBC Prishtina. Follow up of the factors at risk in atherosclerosis development included: cholesterol, HDLi LDLtriglycerides level in sera, blood and liquor glucoses, glucoses consuming index-IIGM. Descriptive values of the atherosclerosis index also, and the rate of the premorbid illness as the very important factors in development of the cerebral infarct.

OBSTRUCTIVE JAUNDICE AS THE CONSEQUENCE OF ECHINOCOCCUS CYST OF LIVER

Obstructive jaundice presents partial or complete blockade in the gall way towards intestinal tract. This blockade is caused by mechanical obstruction in the extrahepatitic bilioductule system. Etiologic factors which cause obstruction of the extrahepatitic gall ways are numerous. One of the reasons of appearing obstructive jaundice is penetration of the cyst parts or cyst sprout into the gall ways. Echinococcus is zoonosis, parasitic disease, caused by echinococcus granulosus, E. multilocolaris, E. vogeli i E. oligarthus. At humans, cystic form of disease caused by E. granulosus appears most frequently, while the alveolar one caused by E. multilocolaris seu alveolaris appears rarely. Aim of the work is to show the importance of the echinococcus cyst of the liver at the appearing of the obstructive jaundice , penetrating the cyst parts or cyst sprout in the gall ways. The patient presented in the work is E.C., male, register number of the disease history 404/05.06.2007, 20 years old, hospitalized at Surgical Clinic because of the surgery of echinococcus cyst on the left liver lobe. Diagnosis was set by abdomen USG, CT of the abdomen, and laboratory analyses. Echinococcus cyst got complicated by its penetration into the gall ways, and manifested by jaundice, the signs of purulent cholangiitis, and bad general state of the patient, so the surgical treatment is absolutely indicated. During the surgery, after the done pericystectomia, cholendochotomia is done because of the enlarged cholangiitis, where the signs of purulent cholangiitis and 5 cyst sprouts are found and removed. Postoperative flow passed normally. Findings of done secondary cholangiography showed normal structure and transience of gall ways, so the T-drain was removed and the patient sent to further home care in a generally and locally good state.
