THE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF DENDRITIC CELLS
Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen presenting cells which trace origin from bone marrow cells. These cells are discovered and described by Steinman i Cohn (1973) in peripheral lymphoid organs of mice. The cellular membrane of DCs are place of expression of plenty immunoregulatory molecules such as MHC class I and II, co stimulatory, and adhesion molecules, as well as many receptors for different cytokines. Armed on this way, DCs are one of the most effective antigen presenting and immunoregulatory cells. Moreover, role of DCs in development of immune reaction can be crucial due to they are one of the most important cellular “link” between native and adaptive immunity. DCs are engaged in mechanisms of antigen processing and presentation, induction of immune reaction, establishing immune tolerance and immune reaction regulation, balancing the immune reaction between autodestruction and protection of “self” cells. These functions makes that DCs play very important role in development of some pathological conditions and diseases such as autoimmunity, allergies and quality of anti-tumor and anti-microbe defense. Unbalanced immune reaction is hallmark of all cited diseases and immunopatological conditions, so that the function of DCs should be explored on the better way.

MONITORING THE ADVERSE ADVERSE DRUG REACTIONS REACTIONS TODAY
One the of most importante charactersistics of drug is a drug safety. However, there is no absolute safety. Medicines are troughly tested in controlled clinical trials with limiting population and short duration. Experience has shown that much of our knowledge about a medicine becomes available during the subsequent prescribing practice. Therefore there is a need for continued monitoring medicines after granting of product licence for a new drug (phrmacovigilance). WHO international system for drug safety monitoring as maintained by the Upsala Monitoring Centre (UMC) in Sweden, has built up vastedatabase of reports of suspect adverse drug reactions, coming from national centres in 75 countries in all of the world. The international system products valuable information from countries around the world, to support regulatory follow-up and decision-making. Emphasis is on those signals that may remain at the national level, because of small numbers or absence of local reports. The aim of the WHO's international pharmacovigilance program is a safe and rational medicines evrywhere. In Serbia as of 2005. National Medical Devices Agency is acting on behalf of the Ministry of Health as National Centre for Adverse Drug Reactions. The form for reporting adverse effects of medicines, in both pre-marketing and post-marketing phase can be found and downloaded in Word format on the Agency`s web site www.alims.sr.gov.yu.

OCULAR CHANGES OCULAR CHANGES AT SERONEGA SERONEGATIVE ARTHROPATHY
Seronegative arthropathy represents group of rheumatic diseases which affects younger patients, more often male. Ocular findings are numerous such as conjunctivitis, iridocyclitis, and they are a part of extraarticular clinical manifestations. Acute anterior uveitis, as most common ocular manifestation, could be a sole or associated morbidity condition at the forme of systemic diseases

EPIDMIOLOGY OF MECHANICAL EYE INJURES WITH INDICATION TO BE HOSPITALISED
In average 2% cases cause of blindness are mechanical injuries of the eye. This retrospective study was conducted in a 6 years period (from 1990 to 1995). Regarding to demographic data (74% were male with domination of children up to 6 years old of among age structure 151 patients, or 23%;The most numerous were pupils and students (247 or 37%).1% of patient were injured both eyes in the same time. The most common cause of eye trauma was wood (28%) and during the playing time (48%) and at home (27%). At 25 patients evisceration and enucleation were performed. Visual acuity was satisfied or good at 52% patients at the reception but on admission result was better: 68%

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE FISTULOGRAPHY FOR OPERATIVE TREATMENT OF THE FISTULA-IN-ANO
Most fistula-in-ano arise as result of chronic infection of an intersphincteric anal glands and persistence may be related more to non-specific epitelisation of the track. Preoperative definition of the anatomy of the fistulous track and the internal opening plays a primary role in adequate planing of the operative approach to minimize iatrogenic damage of sphincters and fistula recurrence. The diagnosis of anal fistula generally is straightforward and is based on clinical features. By
using palpation of the perianal area, digital examination, and careful probing of the track, the fistula anatomy was defined.
Fistulography, radiografic evaluation, is not routinely indicated in the initial avaluation of fistulas but may be helpful in identyng an occult cause of recurrent or multiple fistulas or if examination is suggestive of inflammatory bowel disease. AIM:
is evaluation of importance of the fistulography for surgical treatment of the fistula-in-ano. The study is prospective. In includes 60 patients divided in two groupies, each 30 patients. Examined group was operated after clinical findings by using
careful probing of the track and fistulography. Control group was operated after clinical findings by using careful probing of the track. In patients, examined group, treated with fistulography allowed a corect diagnosis of primary track 43.3%, secondary track 40.0%, horseshoe track 50.0% and internal opening in 40.0% of patients. The clinical findings, in the same group patients, allowed diagnosis of primary track 76.6%, secondary track 60.0%, horseshoe track 100% and internal opening in 73.3% of patients. Preoperative definition of fistulous track and internal opening by physical examination and its relationship with anal sphincters are important factors influencing the results of surgical management. We do not recommend routine fistulography in the diagnosis of fistula-in-ano.

MERCURY VAPOR AIRPOLUTION AND THE XI th GROUP OF DISEASES BY ICD - 10 REVISION
In process of chlorine-alkali electrolyze the big mercury failure exist in vapor shape, which across respiratory system, expire in exposed persons organism. The aim of the work was to examine connection between mercury vapor air pollution and sicknesses coming from diseases belonging to the XI group of diseases by International Classification of Diseases th (ICD) - 10 revision. Exploring groups were workers “Kalium chemistry” factory and administration at CI ”Zupa”. Recognized diagnosis on periodical exams year 2000, 2002 and 2004 were entered in reports (expertises) analyzed later on. Analyzed reports for total 571 examinees were done, 184 examinees year 2000, 191 examinees year 2002 and 196 year 2004. As of diagnosis recognized the diagnoses were separate for diseases belonging to XI ICD group. Examinees were divided in a four group according to the grade of exposure: I group day by day exposed; II group sporadically exposed; III group earlier
exposed; IV group not exposed. First, second and third group of examinees were workers of “Kalium chemistry” factory. It was established during the examination at rooms were exposed workers stay that only mercury vapor pollution 3.01 overcomes Maximum Permitted Concentration allowed by JUS. The frequency differences testing between groups according to the grade of exposure, like as frequency differences testing of sicknesses between all exposed opposite un-exposed, showed
to us that differences are statistically significant. Based on the results of the this research it can be conclude that connection exist between mercury vapor air pollution and sicknesses coming from diseases belonging to the XI group of diseases by ICD.

NATURAL SYSTEM OF DISEASE GENESIS END RASHOMON
Natural system of disease genesis is a complex occurrence. «Net» review of cause can be based on systematic approach and it doesn't have to, and so those are homonyms. Complex occurrence of the genesis of a disease is given as a arranged set by relation «predecessor-follower». Chain reaction is that one which has hierarchic arrangement because of managing. By systematic approach the causality is being created.
