Ginkgo biloba is the oldest tree on the planet. Its healing characteristics have been weel known for more than 3000 years. The aim of this investigation to establish the influence of Ginkgo biloba extract (Egb 761 Tanakan) on bioelectric activity of brain in humans. 30 subjects aged from 52 to 56 years were included in study. The bioelectric activity (EEG) was registrated before and after three month therapy with Ginkgo biloba extract. The obtained results showed that summary bioelectric activity speeds up. Frequency of alpha rhytms increases significantly, number of desinchrayitation desreases, decreases number of non specific activity 

Diabetic retinopathy, particularly diabetic maculopathy, are leading cause of visual loss in the world.Purpose: to estimate type of diabetic maculopathy in patients with diabetic retinopathy. Method: hospital based study. 118 patients with diabetic retinopathy underwent complete ophthalmologic examination ( mean age 58,1 years, male 78, female 40; 7% were diabetes type 1 patients; 46% had nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) and 54% had proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Results: 88 patients (74% of all) had diabetic maculopathy. The most common type of diabetic maculopathy was diffuse (60% of all patients ), afterward focal (33% patients) ischemic maculopathy (both with PDR) had two patients (3%) and five patients had mixtus (7%) . Conclusions: diffuse diabetic maculopathy is the most common type of maculopathy both in NPDR and PDR

Clinical picture of unspecific osteomyelitis of different forms, tubercular and brucellosis osteomyelitis is presented radiolography, tomography, myelography, fistulography, arteriography, scintigraphy, and computerized tomography. Radiological changes of osteomyelitis of different etiology and clinical picture are presented in detail

Interest in the olive leaf and its chemical constituents has recently been increasing. Its benefits, however, have been known for centuries, and it has been traditionally used to prevent and treat diseases. The main constituent of the olive leaves is oleuropeine one of iridoide monoterpenes, which is thought to be responsible for pharmacological effects. Furthermore, the olive leaves contain triterpenes including oleanolic and maslinic acid, flavonoides (luteolin, apigenine, rutin...), and chalcones (olivin, olivin-diglucoside). Its chemical content makes olive leaf one of the most potent natural antioxidant. Olive leaf is used to enhance the immune system, as an antimicrobial and in heart disease. Folk medicine uses also include hypertonia, arteriosclerosis, rheumatism, gout, diabetes mellitus, and fever. Recently, experimental animal studies have demonstrated hypoglycemic, hypotensive, antiarrhythmic, and vasodilator effects, as well as spasmolytic effect on the intestinal smooth muscle. Antibacterial, antiviral and antiinflammatory activity were also confirmed. The beneficial properties of olive leaf are further enhanced by the bioavailability of its polyphenolic constituents, which are readily absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in significant levels in the circulation. Clinical studies to confirm experimental results are needed

Nitric oxide (NO) is a major messenger molecule that plays key roles in many physiological processes. NO is produced by nitric oxide synthase (NOS), which catalyzes the conversion of L-arginine to L-citruline and NO. At least three isoforms of NOS have been identified and characterized, namely, neuronal NOS (nNOS), endothelial NOS (eNOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS). Recent evidence indicates that most of the cytotoxicity attributed to NO is rather due to peroxynytrite, produced from the diffusion controlled reaction betwen NO and another free radical, the suproxide anion. Peroxynitrite interacts with protein, DNAand lipids via direct oxidative reactions or via indirect radical mediated mechanisms

Dental caries (Caries Dentis) is multi cause, multi phase, and reversible disease of infectious nature. Modern understanding of caries etiology is showing that dental caries is complex disease as a result of numbers of factors which can be divided on causal (primary) and conditional (secondary) . According to this concept caries is an implication of local factors synergy (host-tooth, microorganisms, nutrition or substratum), as primal factors and a number of secondary factors which can react in various phases of teeth growth and function. Specific type of caries is early caries, characteristic for youngest age (suckling and infants). Early childhood caries ECC is a concept used to realistically describe emersion of all caries changes, in primal, milk dentitio , when caries exists on tooth at the least. This disease is becoming very serious health problem both in dental and medical way. And it should not be observed isolated like a dental problem but like a problem which affects overall child development. In Kosovo County, among children of age from 2 to 5, there is 96.7% of caries teeth, 2.3% of filled teeth and 0.7% of extracted teeth. Percentage of children with caries is statistically growing with age and is in range from 45.4% for a two years old, up to 77.2% for a five years old

After restoration of approximative cavities where gingive wall is forming subgingivaly occurs an damage of epitel of gingival sulcus and subepitel fibrous tissue. These damages occur partially in order of direct irritative effect of materials, and partially because of inadequately made definite reisen. Anomaly which may occur while making reisen, is effect of micro leakage between reisen wall of cavities roughness and reisen parts which prominate above anatomic tooth sphere , enable faster and bigger accumulating of dental plaque. Gingive inflammation is widening deeper in parodontium trough vascular network situated in interdental bone septum. Inflammation is constantly spreading from the point and reaches parodontium. The aim of this study is to estimate clinical changes in parodontium within certain group of patients of different age and sex, caused by inadequate dental restoration. Results of this research present that anomaly in dental reisen , have great influence on inflammation reaction of parodontium. Composite reisen cause higher degree of inflammatory reaction in compared to amalgam reisen

The tibial and femoral shaft fractures representing prototyp in orthopedic traumatology and great problem for resolving. The speed of limb recovering functionality after surgery is important, and often desicisive for result of treatment. Place of external fixation (EF) in surgical treatment of femurs in DCOS (damage control orthopedic surgery), cominutions of femoral shaft and open fractures, rarely as definitive method. EF in treatment of tibial shaft fractures today take a place as a definitive method like intramedulary nailing. On department of orthopedic surgery in HC Kosovska Mitrovica we examined quality of life and speed of lower limb recovering functionality on 70 patients treated with EF tip Mitkovic as a definitive curative method. The time of achieving early function of lower limbs we divided on 4 levels, and writed time when patients achieved level 3 and 4. Also this timing we compared with middle time of healing tibial or femoral shaft fractures (golden standard) .We examined quality of life with EuroQol 5D evaluation system. 90% of our patient in period 8 to 12 weeks achieved level 3 and 4. There statisticaly significant diference between examined gropu and golden standard, p<0,05. We concluded that EF tip Mitkovic as definiyive curative method improved the speed of lower limbs recovering functionality. Quality of life is very high, 84 points. The number of complications where expected and in proportion with literatures data.

The biggest Serbian medival hospital had founded Stefan Urosh III Nemanjich in the monastery named Dechani. In 1340, it had been founded the hospital of the emperors Dushan in monastery of St.Arhangel near tawn Prizren. By liberation of the province Kosovo and Metohija from the Turkish rule and by united with Serbia,the health had been diveloping in this region. In 1922, it had been founded the state hospital in 1931. Governor, and in 1938, this hospital had the 120 beds and three laboratory rooms for analyses of blood and of urine. In 1924, it had been formed the first bacterologist station in Prizren. In 1928, it had been formed the State childrens home which is in 1929. had been become public health station with the general school ambulanta first aid station,bathroom and laboratory. In 1927. it had been working the Polyclinic in Prishtina were theyhad been carrying on the laboratory analyses.In these health resorts in the province of Kosovo and Metohija have been carrying on the analyses of blood, urine and of bowel as and the microscopy of preparation to malaria and it has been carrying on the education of skilled workers for these analyses. After the Second World war it had been carrying on the education of laboratory technians it the courses and by opening of laboratories in hospitals and health stations in Kosovo and Metohija the specialization of medicine biochemistry have been ending a lot of pharmacists who give a famous contribution to the development of biochemistry in this territory.
