CHARACTERISTIC OF MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION IN DIABETIC PATIENTS
The aim of our work was to inquire characteristics of myocardial infarction in diabetic patients.We questioned
prospectively 441 patients, diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction. Diabetes mellitus (DM) was found in 31,3%
patients. Atrial fibrillation was found in 16,7% patients with DM and 7,3% on patients without DM(p<0,05).Ventricular
arrhythmias gr.III was found in 18,8% patients with DM and 15,8% on patients without DM (p>0,05), gr. IV 24,6% vs.
12,9% (p<0,05) and gr.V 18,1% vs.9,9% (p<0,05). Heart failure (NYHA I) was found in 10,9% patients with DM and
10,6% on patients without DM (p>0,05), heart failure NYHA II 13,8 vs.10,6% (p>0,05), heart failure NYHA III 14,5% vs.
5,6% (p<0,05) and heart failure NYHAIV 10,1 vs. 3,3% (p<0,05).Cardiogenic shock was found in 21,7% patients with DM
and 10,2% on patients without DM (p<0,05). QRS scor was found 8,3+-2,9 in patients with DM and 4,5+-1,5 on patients
without DM (p<0,05). In-hospital mortality was found 20,3% in patients with DM and 8,2% on patients without DM
(p<0,05). Post-hospital mortality was found 10,2% in patients wuth DM and 5,1% on patients without DM (p>0,05).
Myocardial infarction in patients with DM have difficulty clinical flow and higher mortality

PENIS INJURY CAUSED BY A BITE
Considering the fact that there are freer and more varying sex activities, we have today more varying genital organs injuries both at men and women. We present you a patient with two penis injuries caused by a bite. It must be done a complete wound treatment with ATprotection and maximum antibiotics appliance. It is necessary to perform an AIDS test.

THE ROLE OF ANTROPOLOGISTS IN FORENSIC INVESTIGATIONS EXHUMED DEAD BODIES IN KOSOVO AND METOHIA FROM 2001. to 2004.
Very important role in the forensic investigation of mass graves takes forensic anthropology. Anthropologists take
part during the exhumation and later through the investigation and identification procedures. Forensic investigations of
mass graves in Kosovo and Metohija are going on. In this paper we observe all cases that were exhumed and identified during 2001., 2002., 2003. till the 1. 05 2004. In this time 280 dead bodies were exhumed and forensic team did autopsies, but
111 dead bodies were identified. Our aim was to analyze anthropological measurments (gender, age and stature) and compare them with the real state on identified dead bodies. Scientifics all over the world made the record of the very good results
of anthropology work. After our investigation we can say that anthropology is very valuable during the exhumation of mass
graves.

VITREOUS HAEMORRHAGIAE IN PENETRATING EYE INJURES IN CHILDREN
Penetrating injuries of the eye are an important cause of unilateral visual loss. Hemophthalmos is frequently and
serious complication in penetrating eye injuries. We studied a series of 422 cause, children aged 1-15 years, treated from
1989 through 1998. There were 324 (76.78%) boys and 98 (23.22%) girls in the study group, with a mean age of 8 years 4
monats. Complication from penetrating eye injuries with hemophthalmos is noticed in 62 cases (14.69%).

LUTEAL PHASE DEFECT IN WOMEN WITH HYPERPROLACTINEMIA AND UNKNOWN REASON OF INFERTILITY
Luteal phase defect is disorder of low progesterone secretion (low level), or very short luteal phase (shorter than 11 days). Consequence of that is late endometrium maturation, almost 2 days. Such endometrum impedes and makes impossible ovum nidation. Today we have luteal phase defect in 14% of infertility women, and in 21% of women of unknown infertility reason. This has been frequently seen in women with spontaneous abortion and hyperprolaktinemia. Diagnostic methods of DLF are biopsy of endometrium and measuring of progesterone level. The aim of this study is the examine endometrium maturation disorders. The study includes 30 women that are hospitalized in Clinical of Gynecology Pristina. Unknown reason of infertility and normal hormonal status had been in 13 (43%), and hyperprolaktinemia in 7 (56,7%) of women. Histological verificated ovulation had been finding out in 60%of women. Late endometrium maturation, luteal phase defect, had been verificated in 23,3% of women, from there in 29,4% of hyperprolaktinemic women and in 5,4% of women of unknown infertility reason. There was evidence of late endometrium maturation of 2 days (85,7%). and of 4 days th (5,4%). Progesterone level in DFLthe 20th day was 30 nmol/l, the 24 day of menstrual cycle was 28,8 nmol/l. Progesterone level in women with histological proved regular endometrium maturation was higher and it was 45, nmol/l. The lowest progesterone level that can be find in good functioning of luteal body was 31,8 nmol/l.Citohormonal findings in DFL was showing progesterone domination. Take a look at infertility and ovarian function must not be concern only on ovulation, it must take care of endometrium maturation.

"GOLD" GUIDELINES FOR THE TREATMENT OF AN ACUTE EXACERBATION OF CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE (COPD)
The Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) has emerged due to joint efforts and support of the American National Heart, Lung & Blood Institute and the World health Organisation, with the objective of enlightening the major issues regarding COPD, and reducing the morbidity and mortality rates of this disease. An exacerbation of respiratory symptoms requiring hospital treatment is a common clinical manifestation of COPD. The exacerbation is usually induced by an infection of the tracheobronchial tree or air pollution, but in about one third of severe exacerbations the cause remains obscure. Acute COPD exacerbations are effectively treated by the application of inhalatory bronchodilators (particularly β-agonists and/or anticholinergics), teophylline and systemic, especially oral glucocorticoids. The patients with COPD exacerbation presented with the clinical symptoms of a respiratory infection (e.g. increased volume and altered colour of the sputum and/or fever) may benefit from antibiotic treatment. Non-invasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NPPV) in acute exacerbations may improve blood gases and pH levels, reduce intrahospital mortality and the need for applying invasive mechanical ventilation and intubation, shortening thus the hospital treatment duration

HISTOLOGICAL STRUCTURE OF SMALL INTENSTINE
The surface area of the small intestine is enhanced by three morphologic features that are peculiar to the gut: plicae circulares, the villi and the microvilli. The plicae circulares (circular folds) consist of mucosal/submucosal invaginations that are predominantly located in the duodenum and jejunum. These infoldings are visible on gross inspection. The intestinal villi, finger-like projections that protrude into the intestinal lumen, are approximately 0,5-1,5 mm long and cover the mucosal surface. They can be viewed by close inspection of the mucosa under low-power microscopy. Their microscopic appearance varies: duodenal villi are characteristically broad and leaf-shaped, jejunal villi are tall and thin, and ileal villi are short and broad. The length and shape of the villi also vary with geographic region. At the base of the villi, the epithelium enters the lamina propria and forms the crypts of Lieberkühn, which extend almost to the muscularis mucosae. The microvilli are sub-light microscopic tubular projections that are extensions of the apical cell membrane and compose the brush border. There are the enzymes and receptors in these structures which are required for terminal digestion and absorption

CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE - CASE REPPORT
Most frequent congenital malformations in human are congenital heart disease (30%). In this article we represented basic of their etiology, pathogenesis, diagnostic and new therapeutics possibilities. Also we represented three cases of congenital heart disease. These cases we considered as very interesting. First of all, in this article we try to emphasize some aspects of this problem, which is not well known, especially in our environment. This very rare congenital heart disease shows how much diagnostic procedure can be difficult and treatment hard or impossible besides big improvement, which has be done last decades. We must learn much more about congenital heart disease!

RARE INJURY OF MALE GENITALS CAUSED BY ELEKTRICITY WITH LASTING INVALIDITY
Injuries of genital organs caused by electricity are rarely isolated and they begin with injuries of the other parts of a body. We present you a patient with very rare and difficult genital organs injury which brought to a very severe damage and lasting invalidity. The genitals were being carbonized but a patient have to spend the rest of his life with a final perineostomy.
