INFLUENCE OF SIZE AND SHAPE OF VETETAQTION SPACE ON YIELD OF CELERIAC CULTIVARS APIUM GRAVEOLENS VAR. RAPACEUM (MILL.) IN VRANA AREA

Celer korjenaš je u nas nedovoljno zastupljeno povrće iako mu je primjena višestruka u svježoj potrošnji i za preradu, a koristi se zadebljali korijen i lišće. Istraživanja kapaciteta rodnosti kultivara i načina sadnje dala su elemente tehnologije za uvođenje ove kulture u proizvodnju u Vranskom bazenu. U dvogodišnjem dvofaktorijalnom pokusu na lokaciji Jankolovica P.D. "Vrana" ispitivana su 3 kultivara: Nemona, Volltreffer i udomaćeni stari kultivar Praški orijaš. Presadnice proizvedene u zaštićenom prostoru u prešanim blokovima (5x5x5 cm) posađene su uz dva razmaka redova: 60 x 20 i 50 x 20 cm i tri razmaka u trakama: 60 + 30 x 20, 60 + 30 + 30 x 20 i 60 + 30 + 30 + 30 x 20 cm, što je iznosilo 8.3, 10.0, 11.1, 12.5, i 13.3 biljaka/m2. Pokus je postavljen po slučajnom bloknom rasporedu u 5 ponavljanja, a rezultati obrađeni analizom varijance. Prinos tržnog korijena (promjera većeg od 6 cm) u dvogodišnjem prosjeku bio je najveći u kultivara Volltreffer 35.67, zatim Nemona 31.57, a najmanji u Praškog orijaša 25.62 t/ha. Prinos lišća, naprotiv, bio je najveći u Praškog orijaša 23.90 zatim Volltreffera 15.45 i Nemona 9.17 t/ha. Pri sadnji u redove povećanjem broja biljaka od 8.3 na 10 biljaka/m2 odnosno smanjenjem razmaka redova od 60 na 50 cm, što ne predstavlja problem u kasnijoj obradi, u sva tri kultivara prinos se tržnog korijena povećao u dvogodišnjem prosjeku 28 %. Daljnjim povećanjem broja biljaka sadnjom u dvoredne, troredne i četveroredne trake povećanje prinosa nije bilo tako veliko, niti ujednačeno po kultivarima i godinama. Prinos lišća u sva tri kultivara celera povećanjem broja biljaka više se povećava od prinosa tržnog korijena, a u dvogodišnjem prosjeku svih kultivara povećanje je bilo najviše 63 % pri sadnji u četveroredne trake. Rezultati pokusa pokazuju da kultivar Volltreffer za uzgoj u Vranskom bazenu ima prednost s obzirom na prinos tržnog korijena i zadovoljavajući prinos lišća uz sadnju od 10 biljaka/m2.Celeriac, its globe shaped root and leaves. Is widely used as a fresh vegetable and for processing In order to introduce this crop into the Vrana area the growing methods and cultivars were investigated for two years. Young plants of the cultivars Nemona, Volltreffer and Praški orijaš were produced in a glasshouse in blocks of 5x5x5 cm. They werw planted in bands of two rows spacing of 60 x20 and 50x20 cm a 20 cm besides three band plantings 60+30, 60+30+30 and 60+30+30+30 cm and 20 cm between plants with 5 replication. That means 8.3, 10.0, 11.1, 12.5, and 13.3, plants/m2. Two years average yield of marketable root (more than 6 cm diameter) was 35.67 with cultivar Volltreffer, 31.57 Nemona and 25.62 t/ha with Praški orijaš. On the contrary, leaves yield was greatest with Praški orijaš 23.90, besides Volltreffer 15.45 and Nemona 9.17 t/ha. Increasing plant number from 8.3 to 10 per m2 with planting in 50 cm versus 60 cm rows, root yield was greater for 28 % in average for two years and 3 cultivars. Further increase of plant number/m2 in band planting was not justified in respect of root yield. With all three celeriac cultivars leaves yield is increasing with increasing plant number and in planting in 4 row band was the greatest. As a results of this experiment for Vrana area might be recomanded the cultivar Volltreffer with 10 plants/m2

Civilno zdravstvo u tim prvim danima stvaranja države suočeno je s problemima kao i cijela država oslonjeno isključivo na vlastite snage i rezerve. Agresija na Hrvatsku, prometna izolacija područja, pojava prognanih i izbjeglih povećalo je probleme i naizgled smanjilo izglede za opstanak Hrvatske u što je, danas se već zna, sumnjao cijeli svijet.

Radiofrequency ablation as locoregional therapy for unresectable hepatic malignancies: initial results in 24 patients with 5-years follow-up

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is one treatment modality for unresectable liver metastases. Patients with hepatic malignancies (n = 24) underwent elective RFA. All tumors were ablated with a curative intent, with a margin of 1 cm, in a single session of RFA. The median diameter of tumor was 3.1 cm (range 1.7-6.9 cm). Studied patients were not candidates for resection due to multifocal hepatic disease, extrahepatic disease, proximity to major vascular structures or presence of cirrhosis with functional hepatic reserve inadequate to tolerate major hepatic resection. Complete tumor necrosis was achieved in 87.5% and tumor recurred in 3 patients (12.5%) with lesions larger than 5 cm. Distant intrahepatic recurrence was diagnosed in another 4 (16.7%). Distant metastases were found in 7 (29.2%) patients. Four of these 7 patients had also distant intrahepatic recurrence of disease. Two and 5-years survival rates were 41.7% (10 patients) and 8.3% (2 patients) respectively. RFA is safe and effective option for patients with unresectable hepatic malignancies smaller than 5 cm without distant metastatic disease. RF ablation resulted in complete tumor necrosis in 87.5% with 2 and 5-years survival rates much higher than with chemotherapy alone or only supportive therapy, when survival is measured in weeks or months. If RFA is unavailable, percutaneous ethanol injection therapy can be done but with inferior survival rates

Surgical treatment of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma: 10-year experience at a single institution

Background: Our study evaluates surgical outcomes of patients treated for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma in a single institution and demonstrates postoperative (90 days) morbidity and mortality rates and potential prognostic factors associated with complications. Methods: Medical records of all patients with a diagnosis of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCC) between 2007 and 2017 who underwent a surgical procedure at the University hospital centre Zagreb, were retrospectively evaluated. Statistical analysis to determine predictors of postoperative mortality was performed using the Chi-square test and Fisher exact probability test where appropriate. Results: Out of 52 surgically treated patients, 43 underwent radical and 9 palliative procedures. Hilar resection and hilar resection along with right hepatectomy were the most commonly performed procedures in 34 radically treated patients. Overall morbidity and mortality rates were 46% and 5.7%, respectively. Significantly higher morbidity rate was observed in a group of patient with untreated preoperative jaundice and in those aged 70 and over. Conclusion: Current guidelines favor extension of radicality in treatment of pCC by performing left or right hepatectomy in addition to hilar resection. This may increase R0 resection rates and prolong disease free survival. Our experience shows similar mortality/morbidity rates as reported in other centers and confirms that in selected patients, concomitant hepatectomy for perihilar pCC is a safe and feasible surgical strategy
