Measurement of cross sections and isomeric cross-section ratios for the (n,2n) reactions on 85,87Rb in energies between 13 and 15 MeV
Authors: Luo Junhua , Jiang Li , He Long 
Published: May 2018

Abstract
The (n,2n) cross sections and their isomeric cross-section ratios (σm/σg) in the neutron energy range 13–15 MeV have been measured for 85,87Rb by an activation and off-line γ-ray spectrometric technique using the Pd-300 Neutron Generator at the Chinese Academy of Engineering Physics (CAEP). The natural Rb samples and Nb monitor foils were activated together to determine the reaction cross section and the incident neutron flux. The neutrons were produced via the 3H(d,n)4He reaction. The pure cross section of the ground-state was derived from the absolute cross section of the metastable state and the residual nuclear decay analysis. The 85Rb(n,2n)84m,gRb and 87Rb(n,2n)86m,gRb reaction excitation functions and their isomeric cross-section ratios were also calculated theoretically using the TALYS-1.8 code with different level density options. Results are discussed and compared with the corresponding literature data.
Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel
Authors: Retzlaff Steffen 
Published: May 2018

Summary
‚Three Wishes for Cinderella‘ (Tři oříšky pro Popelku / Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel) is one of the most successful fairy tale films in Czech and German TV. Produced in 1973, it is shown up to now regularly around Christmas in both countries. Every year around the same time, at Moritzburg Castle near Dresden, which has been chosen as place of the ball in the movie, one can see a special Cinderella exhibition. In his paper the author investigates the question of the success of this film. He presents the conditions of the Czech-German joint production during the time of the so called normalisation after the Prague Spring. He compares the story and figures with its literary models (Božena Němcová, Brothers Grimm), and discusses some theories about the modernity of characters, especially of Cinderella as a modern emancipated woman. The core of the paper is the analysis of the narrative structure itself, which may be considered as the secret to the success of the movie.
Von drei translatorischen Nüssen des Aschenbrödels
Authors: Hrdinová Eva Maria 
Published: May 2018

Summary
The paper deals with the translation of fairy tales on the basis of cultural and language pairs (according to Christiane Nord) as well as on the basis of the Kollers Theory of equivalence. This article deals specifically with the Grimm fairy tales in numerous Czech translations and also with the Czech-German fairy tale collection Vladimír Mikolášek’s. Both corpora show parallels and differences, both in content and in form.
Concrete problems, such as the equivalent lexicon or the stylistical specifics are discussed. Consideration is also given to updating and modernizing tendencies, differences between the corpora, as well as to the respective Grimm translations. Summarizing the paper, it can be said that culture is very important for the translation of fairy tales and minding cultural differences contributes to an adequate and successful translation.
Colorless green ideas do sleep furiously: gradient acceptability and the nature of the grammar

Published: May 2018

AbstractIn their recent paper, Lau, Clark, and Lappin explore the idea that the probability of the occurrence of word strings can form the basis of an adequate theory of grammar (Lau, Jey H., Alexander Clark & 15 Shalom Lappin. 2017. Grammaticality, acceptability, and probability: A prob- abilistic view of linguistic knowledge. Cognitive Science 41(5):1201–1241). To make their case, they present the results of correlating the output of several probabilistic models trained solely on naturally occurring sentences with the gradient acceptability judgments that humans report for ungrammatical sentences derived from roundtrip machine translation errors. In this paper, we first explore the logic of the Lau et al. argument, both in terms of the choice of evaluation metric (gradient acceptability), and in the choice of test data set (machine translation errors on random sentences from a corpus). We then present our own series of studies intended to allow for a better comparison between LCL’s models and existing grammatical theories. We evaluate two of LCL’s probabilistic models (trigrams and recurrent neural network) against three data sets (taken from journal articles, a textbook, and Chomsky’s famouscolorless-green-ideassentence), using three evaluation metrics (LCL’s gradience metric, a categorical version of the metric, and the experimental-logic metric used in the syntax literature). Our results suggest there are very real, measurable cost-benefit tradeoffs inherent in LCL’s models across the three evaluation metrics. The gain in explanation of gradience (between 13% and 31% of gradience) is offset by losses in the other two metrics: a 43%-49% loss in coverage based on a categorical metric of explaining acceptability, and a loss of 12%-35% in explaining experimentally-defined phenomena. This suggests that anyone wishing to pursue LCL’s models as competitors with existing syntactic theories must either be satisfied with this tradeoff, or modify the models to capture the phenomena that are not currently captured.
Ancient Egyptian Concepts of Bodily Decay in the Old Kingdom Part 1, PT 684
Authors: Eaton Katherine 
Published: May 2018

Summary
Old Kingdom descriptions of bodily decay are surrounded by assertions of revivification and the maintenance of a proper offering ritual. Thus, the contexts of lines describing bodily decay are first examined, focusing on Pyramid Text (PT) Utterance 684. The problems of preventing the decay of the corpse, and curing conditions of the living body associated with decay were interrelated in ancient Egyptian thought. Already in the Old Kingdom, terminology surrounding wet, drippy decay (r
ḏ
w, fdt, ḥ
wꜢ and ḥ
wꜢꜢ.t) was clear and well developed; sometimes incorporated into the offering ritual through association with libations; and paralleled in medical literature. In contrast, terminology which appears to refer to dry decay (jmk, rpw) is rare, and does not have more general uses outside of mortuary literature.
Quantifying intermolecular interactions for isoindole derivatives: substituent effect vs. crystal packing
Authors: Chęcińska Lilianna , Jóźwiak Andrzej , Ciechańska Magdalena , Paulmann Carsten , Holstein Julian J. , Dittrich Birger , Małecka Magdalena 
Published: May 2018

AbstractThe aim of the study was to examine noncovalent interactions in considerably different crystal packings of three isoindole compounds. Their structures were compared to three other closely-related derivatives described earlier in the literature. Here we discuss the crystal structures in the context of the hydrogen-bonded motifs and other weak interactions. The hierarchy of investigated intermolecular interactions was examined in a quantitative manner through pairwise interaction energies and energy framework analysis.
A study on the reaction of 3-alkyl(aryl)imidazo[1,5-a]pyridines with ninhydrin

Published: May 2018

Abstract
The reaction of 3-alkyl(aryl)imidazo[1,5-a]pyridines (1) with ninhydrin in dichloromethane at room temperature delivered good yields of the respective 2-hydroxy-2-(imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-1-yl)indene-1,3-diones. In the presence of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD), this uncatalyzed electrophilic substitution reaction, involving C-1 (in 1) and the central C=O (in ninhydrin), takes precedence over the three-component 1,4-dipolar cycloaddition reaction. This selectivity is probably due to the higher electrophilicity of the carbonyl carbon-2 in ninhydrin as compared to that of the sp-carbon atoms in DMAD, augmented with the high nucleophilicity of carbon-1 in 1.

Fluoretação da água de abastecimento público é a adição de compostos de flúor nas estações de tratamento da água como uma das formas de prevenção da cárie dentária. Ainda que a fluoretação das águas seja reconhecidamente eficaz na prevenção da cárie dentária, e mesmo que a Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) siga recomendando-a como medida estratégica de saúde pública, há questionamentos quanto à sua efetividade em contextos em que as populações estão expostas a múltiplas fontes de flúor. O objetivo desta revisão foi apresentar alguns pontos sobre fluoretação da água no Brasil. Para além de saber se a fluoretação das águas de abastecimento público é eficaz ou não, é relevante seguir avaliando se essa tecnologia de saúde pública é ou não efetiva na prevenção da cárie, sobretudo em contextos socioeconômicos marcados por desigualdades, como é o caso do Brasil. Somente com a análise detalhada de todos os argumentos poder-se-á chegar a um posicionamento sólido em relação ao tema, com conclusões mais acuradas.
Associations between the HEXACO model of personality and gambling involvement, motivations to gamble, and gambling severity in young adult gamblers

Background and aims
Substantial research has examined the role of personality in disordered gambling. The predominant model in this work has been the five-factor model (FFM) of personality. In this study, we examined the personality correlates of gambling engagement and gambling severity using a six-dimensional framework known as the HEXACO model of personality, which incorporates FFM characteristics with the addition of honesty–humility. In addition, the potential mediating role of gambling motives in the personality and gambling severity relationship was explored.

Methods
A sample of undergraduate gamblers (n = 183) and non-gamblers (n = 143) completed self-report measures of the Problem Gambling Severity Index (PGSI) and the Gambling Motives Questionnaire-Financial, as well as self- and observer report forms of the HEXACO-100.

Results
Logistic regression results revealed that scores on honesty–humility were positively associated with non-gambling over gambling status. Furthermore, it was also found that honesty–humility, agreeableness, and conscientiousness were each uniquely associated with PGSI severity scores. The results of the mediational analyses suggest that each personality factor has different gambling motivational paths leading to PGSI gambling severity.

Discussion and conclusions
The findings of this study contribute to the literature on behavioral addictions by providing an increased understanding of individual personality factors associated with likelihood of gambling, overall gambling severity, and gambling motives. Ultimately, these findings suggest that the honesty–humility dimension may be a target for the prevention efforts against problematic gambling outcomes.

Depression is among the most common of chronic health problems. WHO report predicts that depression will be the leading cause of disability in the industrial world by the year 2020. To be successful, treatment for the patients suffering from depression must be continued until complete recovery, but most patients do not stay on their antidepressant medication long enough. One of the most frequent reasons for break down is appearance of unpleasant side effects. In this study we followed up dynamics of the characteristic side effects of antidepressant therapy, with the major goal to assess their frequency and characteristics. The sample was all female patients taking antidepressant drugs in the Department of Psychiatry of Clinical Centre of University in Sarajevo. The treatment with antidepressants was efficient in most of the patients. A major advantage of SSRI over TCA was less pronounced side effects. The most intensive side effects of TCA (amitriptyline) were dry mouth, tremor and tachycardia while the most frequent side effects included blurred vision, tachycardia, dry mouth, tremor and sedation. Side effects of SSRI (fluoxetine/fluvoxamine) were mild, and the most frequent were nausea, tachycardia, swelling, dry mouth.

Antipsychotic drugs produce a wide spectrum of physiological actions. Some of these effects differ among the various classes of antipsychotics. This medications have indications in the treatment of acute psychotic disorders. The main goal of this investigation was to determine the incidence and prevalence of the neuroleptic therapy acute side effects. The reason for this epidemiological investigation performing was the lack of knowledge of the exact neuroleptic therapy side effects incidence. Qualitative study on this problem has not been performed yet. Antipsychotic therapy side effects prevalence rate according to the literature data is ranging from 24% to 74%. Different prevalence rate is a consequence of different antipsychotic drug usage, different drug administration method and different side effects identification. On account of all these facts, we put the hypothesis on the correlation between the antipsychotic therapy and occurred side effects. Our experiment included all patients hospitalised from December 31st 1999 to January 31st 2000 in Intensive Care Unit of Biological Psychiatry Department of Psychiatric Clinic in Sarajevo. All patients were divided in three groups according to the applied therapy. All of them met ICD-10 criteria for schizophrenia (F20-29). During our study the following examinations were performed: psychiatric interview, BRPS, scale of side effects, psychophysiological tests, general clinical impression, scale of appetite, carbon hydrate needs scale. Psychiatric and statistical evaluations were done as well. The evaluation of our examination is showing successful results in all groups of patients. The improvement of psychopathological symptoms was insignificant. Reported side effects were minimal with low incidence rate and relatively high prevalence rate. Statistical tests were calculated from the obtained data after what the null hypothesis was rejected. Consequently, an alternative hypothesis was confirmed and it indicated that the acute side effectsincidence and prevalence were within the range of expectation. Intensity of the recorded side effects was moderate to mild. On the basis of the obtained data, it has been concluded that applied antipsychotic agents did not induce more psychophysiological function impairments in the treated patients. Psychophysiological functions remained in physiological range limits and their changes were not significant. Neuroleptic therapy side effects were minimal, meaning no toxic signs or therapy discontinuations were recorded.

Sustained-release theophylline pellets formulation for once-daily evening administration significantly improved patients compliance and adjusted serum levels profile of the drug. The patients conversion from i.v. to p.o. therapy is one of the most critical steps in the treatment of asthma according to its chronopathophysiological character. In our study we have examined safety and efficiency of this conversion in twelve hospitalised asthmatic patients who were given the new sustained-release theophylline pellets formulation for once-daily evening administration. The lung function parameters (FEV1, VC, RV, and Rt) and serum theophylline concentrations were monitored. So, the values obtained for the last day of i.v. therapy and the fifth day of p.o. therapy were compared. We found that 75% of the patients had no change or improved lung function on the conversion. Our results indicate that this conversion from i.v. to p.o. theophylline therapy is safe and could be efficacious. Also, the maximum theophylline serum levels could safely be predicted by measuring only one serum concentration in p.o. therapy with sustained-release theophylline pellets formulation for once-daily evening administration.

Having in mind the fact that cerebrovascular disease (CVB) takes today in medicine, in spite of diagnostic and therapeutic modernisation, the third place of mortality causes in the world (behind cordial and malignant diseases, but in front of depressions), and the second place of invalidity cause (right after trauma) as well as the second place of dementia cause (after Alzheimer disease), it urges primary prophylaxis. Developing countries, but before all countries of East and Middle Europe, where is our country, are highly risked areas where CV disease has trend of incidence and total frequency increase. In the neighbouring Croatia today CV disease is at the first place of mortality causes. In the world today 5 million people annually suffer CV disease, in Europe about 700.000, but frequency of suffering on Balkan is about 5 prom. Age of CV disease effecting unfortunately moved towards young age, and today 49% of effected by CV disease are of 46 to 59 years of age. Early detection and treatment of risk factors (before hypertension, smoking, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidaemia, stress and physical non-activities) are the first aspect of CV disease prophylaxis. Together with this aspect of primary prophylaxis is early detection of complications of mentioned risk factors on the walls of blood vessels, before all changing in sense of arteriosclerosis, with consequence of disorder of cerebral haemodynamics. With that objective - verification of circulator and total haemodynamic disorders, there is obvious disclose of non-invasive diagnostic methods, and one of them is Transcranial Doppler Sonography(TCD). TCD is method comfortable for patient, reliable and rather precise, dynamic, and can be repeated several times, without side effects and in comparison with others rather cheap.
Proteasome inhibitors: new class of antitumor agents
Authors: Srkalović Gordan 
Published: May 2018

The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway is the principal pathway for intracellular protein degradation1,2 (Fig 1). This pathway selectively degrades an extensive number of short-lived regulatory proteins involved in the control of normal cellular processes. In order to be degraded, proteins targeted by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway are covalently tagged by polyubiquitination, via a three-step enzymatic process, which ultimately leads to their recognition and degradation, by the 26S proteasome in a highly specific and regulated manner. This process is accomplished by the sequential action of three enzymes: an ATP-dependent ubiquitin-activating enzyme (E1), an ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2) and an ubiquitin-pro-tein ligase (E3).3 This cascade covalently links the C terminus of ubiquitin to a free amino group on the target protein, usually the ε-amino of a lysine residue.

Cardiovascular diseases are leading cause of morbidity in the world. Measurement of the level of biochemical markers in the serum is one of World Health Organisation (WHO) criteria in diagnosing acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Non-specific clinical state of patients and insufficiently sensitive electrocardiographic (ECG) diagnostics, at patient's hospital admission time, point out the importance of biochemical markers in acute myocardial infarction diagnosis. Technology development and new diagnostic methods lead to the invention of highly sensitive and specific marker as myocardialdamage evidence. Cardiac Troponin I (cTnI) is specific marker for myocardial damage1. Its elevation in the serum within myocardial ischemia symptomatology is important in diagnosis of myocardial infarction.

Summary Acute lumbar syndrome occurs suddenly and is accompanied with strong pain in the lower part of the back. The most frequent APLS causes are vertebral (herniation of intervertebral disc, subluxation of intervertebral disc, subluxation of intervertebral joint, fracture of vertebra -traumatic or pathological), or extravertebral (subluxation of sacroiliac joint, acute bursitis of iliolumbar segment, muscle injuries or injuries of tendo-ligamentous apparatus of lumbosacral region).The treatment of acute lumbar painful syndrome is classified as medical, alternatively medical, surgical and combined. On the basis of durable experience, “Praxis method” as a treatment of lumbar pain (general and acute) is being applied in the Centre for Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation “Praxis” in Sarajevo. During the period from 1996 to 2000, the total number of 5.663 patients were examined in the centre “Praxis”. Out of that number, 17.7% (1.003) of patients had acute lumbar painful syndrome (ALPS). Immediately after the therapeutic manipulation, which included “Praxis method, 31.5% (317) patients experienced the cessation of pains followed by ending of the treatment. The length of treatment for the rest of patients lasted: 1-7 days in 412 or 41.07% of patients, 8-21 days in 195 or 19.48% of patients, and more than 21 days in 79 or 7.88% of patients. For all patients (1.003) the average treatment duration was 6.6 days. The recidivation occurred in 127 patients (12.66%).Throughout the treatment successfulness estimation according to clinical results scaled from 0 to 5, it was confirmed that out of the total number of 831 patients (82.85%) results were excellent in 459 patients (45.76%) or very good in 372 patients (35.09%).The average age of patients was ranging between 35 and 45 years (621 patients or 61.9%). The male/female distribution was 2:1.

We retrospectively analyzed patients with larynx cancer that were treated at ENT Clinics in Sarajevo in the last 5 years. According to the tumor site, TNM classification, operative procedure and postoperative treatment we found the following: Over the last 5 years 156 patients underwent surgical treatment--143 (91,6%) male and 23 (8.4%) female. According to the age 1 patient belonged in the age group 30-40 years (0.64%), 25 in the age group 40-50 years (16%), 51 in the age group 50-60 (32.7%), and 79 were over 60 years of age (50.6%). Of those 145 were smokers (93%), and 11 non-smokers (7%). Histological findings showed 100% cases with squamous cell cancer. Most of the patients were surgically treated with total laryngeoctomy with unilateral or bilateral dissection and thyroidectomy or lobectomy (29%) or total laryngectomy with thyroidectomy or lobectomy (23%), total laryngectomy (22%). The rest of the patients underwent total laryngeoctomy with unilateral or bilateral dissection (16%) chordectomy (4%), supraglottic laryngectomy (3%), hemilaryngectomy (2%) and hemilaryngectomy with dissection (1%) All patients were postoperatively irradiated and chemotherapy was combined with irradiation only in younger patients.
