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.

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.

VALUES OF THE SERUMS OXIDATIVE STRESS INDICATORS IN THE AGE-RELATED CATARACT PATIENTS

Actual hypothesis related to development of the age-related cataract focus the photo oxidative stress as a key process of cataract genesis. It considers that damages in the lens cells, caused by sunlight and oxygen within photodynamic action of the photo oxidative stress, make essence of the cataract genesis process. Although the cataractogenes is primary a local process that flows in a local compartment, oxidative stress is often a systemic event. It relates particularly to the older age, i.e. to the ageing process itself. Even if special regulatory mechanisms of the eye provide appropriate supply of antioxidative elements on the local level, fulfilling of the eye and it's lens with antioxidative elements depends on their systemic availability and distribution. By investigation of concentrations of malondialdehyde, vitamin C, vitamin E, glutathione and albumin, and activity of cathtalase and peroxidase in serums of patients with age-related cataract, as well as with comparison of the same elements values in serums of the same age and sex distribution group of people without cataract, we found noticeable differences of the oxidative stress intensity in serums within those two investigated groups.

THE EFFECT OF ASPIRIN AND TICLOPIDINE ON LIVER FUNCTION TEST IN RATS

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of aspirin and ticlopidine, administered alone and in combination, on liver function parameters. The experiment was conducted on white laboratory rats, type Wistar. Thirty-two rats were divided in four groups and they recived one of the following treatments for 4 days: group I, control, saline (1 ml/kg, i.p.); group II, aspirin (50 mg/kg/day i.p.); group III, ticlopidine (125 mg/kg/day i.p.) and group IV, aspirin+ticlopidine combination (50 mg/kg/day+125 mg/kg/day i.p.). After the treatment the animals were anaesthetised with ether and blood for further analyses was taken by cardiopunction. The total cholesterol serum level was significantly increased only in ticlopidine group in comparison to control (p<0.01).Also, the serum activity of alkaline phosphatase and total bilirubin concentration were significantly elevated only in ticlopidine treated group (p<0.001). Serum AST and ALT activities were not significantly elevated in all treating groups. On basis of the obtained results it can be noticed that the values of liver function parameters are greater in group treated with ticlopidine than in group treated with ticlopidine and aspirin combination.

DYSPLASIO EPIPHYSIALIS MULTIPLEX - CASE REPPORT

Dysplasio epiphysialis is congenital disorder of ossification and development of epiphysis that lead to deformation of epiphyses. This disorder of is not so frequent (1). Etiology is unknown. It appears in both sexes in the same percent, sporadically, but in the several members of one family also (2). It appears in two forms, polyarticular and oligoarticular. Clinical feature characterize low growing (150-160 cm) with short clumsy fingers, incrassate joints and limited mobility. Especially characteristic of this disorder is discrepancy between low degree of subjective complaints and marked radiological changes. (1). Laboratory findings most often are not specific. Metabolism of calcium and phosphorus is not changed (2). Radiological is characteristic irregular aspect of joint flanges and articulating surfaces and narrowing of the joint spaces, cartilage sclerosis, cystic changes in joints and, not so often periarticular chondromatosis. Vertebral joints if geared manifest platispondilia and ragged of vertebral joints surfaces (2). Conclusion: Dysplasio epiphysialis multiplex is characterized with specific clinical and radiological feature and appearance in jung ages; it is often substitute with primary generalized osteoarthrosis or rheumatoid arthritis (our case). From those reasons it is very important to recognize the specific nature of this disease for the therapeutic and prognostic purpose.

IDENTIFICATION OF THE VICTIMS KILLED IN A CIVILIAN BUS CROSSING A BRIDGE IN LUŽANE

Identification of the deceased is routine and, for experts, quite a simple forensic procedure. However, in the case of
mass accidents such as explosions, traffic accidents, natural disasters, and during the war everything is much more different.
There are a lot of differences between forensic medicine in the peace and the forensic medicine during the war. The cause of
this claim comes from special conditions for performing the forensic procedures during the war, with much more activities,
a lot of differences and special characteristics of war injuries. We have in mind mass war injuries and great number of victims, which can grow till catastrophic proportions. That includes killing a great number of people in different places, in
different military units and civilian settlements. The identification of these victims is, certainly, the most important and permanent task of forensic medicine which consider, first of all, collecting, identification and transportation of the victims. The
complexity of these tasks is severe when mass deaths occur, but also when killings happened in the different locations in the
same time, also, during the discovering of the victims which become putrefied and decay, where the biggest problem is to
identify the victim and determine the cause of death.
