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

SURGICAL INTERVENTION IN PREGNANCY - Anaesthesiological management
The urgent surgical intervention need great atention in pregnant patients because of vital indication all surgical procedure interffer with pregnancy togheter with general anaesthesia and could cause complication of pregnancy and some times a damage of the foetus. Our study include all surgical procedure as the acute abdomen, trauma and politrauma in pregnant patient. Our aime was to give general anaesthesia which should be safe for mother and foetus.Post-operaative therapy and treatment of patients was done by theam of anaesthesia and gynecologists. The anaesthesia monitoring and surgical procedure have been improved up to the presset day but there are steel present great ricks in a treatment of this type of patients.The criteri in surgical and conservative treatment of pregnant patients was determined in colsultacion anaestetist-gynecologists.

QUANTIFIED APPROACH TO FYBROMYALGIA
Fibromyalgia presents a great clinical problem. Existence of no objective criteria for diagnosis is the key problem of this disease in the clinical rheumatology. The task of this work was to present the most practical quantification of fibromyalgia in every-day practice. Out of 37 patients there were 29 (78,3%) women, and 8 (21,6%) men. Out of this number there were 3 (8,1%) with primary fibromyalgia, 8 (21,6%) with secondary fibromyalgia, 25 (67,5%) were concomitant, whereas there was only one atypical case, i.e. (2,7%).

"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

Case Reports
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!

DIAGNOSTIC AND TREATMENT OF OSTEOPOROSIS
Osteoporosis is a condition chracterized by a reduced amount of bone which leads to diminihed physical strength of the skeleton and an increased susceptibility to fractures. There are many causes of osteoporosis but the most common by fair is due to the decrese in the amount of bone which occurs after the menopause, the so called postmenopausal osteoporosis. There is no evidence that postmenopausal bone loss itself causes any symptoms and ensuing osteoporosis has therefore been called «the silent epidemic».

POSTMENOPAUSAL WOMEN SEXUALITY
Women sexuality is a complex phenomenon encompassing biological, psychological, emotional and social aspects. The menopausal changes have undoubtedly a significant influence on sexuality. There is a widespread opinion that older women show a fading interest and desire for sexual relations. However, despite of all unavoidable changes brought about by menopause and elder age, the sphere of sexuality remains still very important. The paper reviews the changes occurring in the sphere of sexuality in the older age, influence of menopausal hormaonal changes, psycho-social factors and general health state in these changes, as well as of the possibilities of treating sexual dysfunctions in the menopausal period.

METABOLIC SYNDROM, RISK FACTOR FOR CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE
Sindrom X or Metabolic Syndrome are both terms used to describe a collection of herth risks contitions that increase your chance os developing heart disease, stroke and diabetes. The condition is aslo known by other names including insulin Resistence syndrome, and Dysmetabolic syndrome. The number of people with Metabolic Syndrome increases with
age, affecting more than 40 percent of people in their 60 s and 70 s. Components of Metabolic Syndrome are: Abdominal obesity, atherogenic dyslipidemia, raised blood pressure, insulin resistance, proinflamate state and prothrombotic state. The
National Cholesterol Education Program 's Adult Treatment Panel III report (ATPIII) identified 6 components of the metabolic syndrome that relevate to CVD. Insulin resistance is present in the majority of people with the matabolic syndrome.
It strongly associates is present with other metabolic risk factors and correlates unuvariately with CVD risk. Patiens with
longstanding insulin resistance frequently manifest glucose intolerance. When glucose intolerance evolves into diabetslevel hyperglicemia, independent risk factor for CVD. When 3 of 5 of the listed caracteristics are present, a diagnosis of metabolic syndrome can be made. The exact cause of Metabolic syndrome is not known. Most reserchers believe it is caused by
a combination of your genetic makeup and lifestyle choices-including the types of food you eat and level of physical activity.

INFLUENCE OF EMOTIONAL DISORDERS ON THE RECOVERY OF PATIENTS AFTER THE STROKE
The patients after the stroke besides impaired motor functions,often have cognitive and emotional disorders which
can endanger the successful carrying out of the rehabilitation treatment. The objective of this study was to estimate the
functional capability and to determine the cognitive and emotional disorders of the patients after the stroke. The research has
ecompassed 40 patients after the stroke of specified age and gender structure, treated in the Clinic for Rehabilitation, of the
Clinical Center in Novi Sad. The data have benn gathered from the anamnesis, clinical and neurological check, test of the
activity in everyday life, the findings of the psychologist on the emotinal status, as well as from the available medical
documentation about the patient. The average values of the Barthel's index are increased for 14.86% after the rehabilitation
treatment. The results show a strong presence of the emotional disorders with 57.5% of the patients. The increased values of Barthel's index and Mini Mental test at the end of the treatment show the undoubtfull importance of the rehabilitation
treatment in the recovery of the patients. The emotional disorders cause the worse recovery of the patients.
