Differences in the ball throwing technique in preschool children different age

Iako su spolne razlike zabilježene u mnogim motoričkim zadacima, razlike su minimalne tijekom ranog djetinjstva. U predškolskom razdoblju razlike se počinju povećavati. Bacanje je jedno od najkorisnijih osnovnih motoričkih znanja i uključeno je u razne sportove kao što su bejzbol, softball, košarku, rukomet, nogomet i kriket (Gallahue, Ozmun & Goodway, 2012). Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je utvrditi razlike u tehnici bacanja lopte i njegovih strukturnih elemenata u predškolskoj djeci. Uzorak se sastojao od 229 predškolske djece dobi od 3 do 7 godina upisanih u tri vrtića u glavnom gradu Hrvatske. Mjerenje tehnike bacanja lopte dio je baterije testova Test of Gross Motor Development - 2 testing kit (Ulrich, 2000). Analiza varijance (ANOVA) i Bonferroni post-hoc test korišteni su za određivanje razlika u tehnici bacanja između dječaka i djevojčica, kao i četiri elemenata tehnike. Glavni rezultati ovog istraživanja pokazuju da postoje značajne razlike između dječaka i djevojčica u bacanju lopte (p <0,05). Bonferroni post-hoc test pokazuje da su dječaci znatno bolji (2,32) u bacanju lopte nego djevojčice (1,20). Nadalje, rezultati pokazuju da su dječaci bolji u svim kriterijima uspješnosti bacanja lopte (p <0,05) (rotacija tijela, suprotna noga prijenosa težine, dijagonalna okretaja ruku nakon bacanja), osim u prvom kriteriju, pripremnom zamahu. Praktična primjena ovog istraživanja podrazumijeva izmjene u predškolskoj nastavi tjelesnog odgoja i organiziranim igrama s loptom kada djevojčice i dječaci zajedno vježbaju.Although gender differences have been noted in many motor tasks, differences are minimal during early childhood. In the pre-school period the differences start to increase. Throwing is one of the most useful basic motor skills and is included in various sports such as baseball, softball, basketball, handball, soccer and cricket (Gallahue, Ozmun & Goodway, 2012). The aim of this study was to determine the differences in the technique of ball throwing and its structural elements in preschool children. The sample consisted of 229 preschool children aged 3 to 7 enrolled in three kindergarten in capital of Croatia. Measurement of the ball throwing technique is part of the Test of Gross Motor Development - 2 testing kit (Ulrich, 2000). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Bonferroni post-hoc test were used to determine differences in throwing technique between boys and girls, as well in four technique elements. The main results of this study show that significant differences exists between boys and girls in the ball throwing (p <0.05). The Bonferroni post-hoc test shows that boys are significantly better (2.32) in ball throw score than girls (1.20). Furthermore, the results show that boys are better at all ball throwing performance criteria (p <0.05)(body rotation, opposite leg transferring weight, diagonal arm swing after throw), except in the first – preparatory arm swing. Practical application of this research would imply modifications of preschool physical education classes and organized games containing ball throw when girls and boys exercise together

Adjuvatno liječenje melanoma

For decades, interferon-alpha (IFN-α) has been the only option in the adjuvant treatment of high-risk melanoma. Despite numerous clinical trials and meta-analyzes, IFN-α is not yet a gold standard. It indeed showed benefit in progressionfree survival (PFS) and to a lesser extent in overall survival (OS) but at the cost of high toxicity. The emergence of new, revolutionary therapies in the treatment of metastatic melanoma, like immunotherapy (checkpoint inhibitors - CTLA4 and PD1 inhibitors) and targeted therapies (BRAF and MEK inhibitors), led to considering their potential effect in adjuvant/preventive use. A number of phase II and phase III trials analyzed the adjuvant application of targeted therapies and immunotherapies in completely resected stage III melanoma (IIIA, IIIB, IIIC) and stage IV melanoma (PD1 inhibitor nivolumab). They showed a clear benefit in relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). This led to a change in guidelines for adjuvant treatment of melanoma and approval of immunotherapy and targeted therapy by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and EMA (European medicines agency) in the indications mentioned above. Further trials are underway in other high-risk stages (like IIC) and in neoadjuvant treatment of stage III melanoma.Desetljećima je interferon alfa bio jedina opcija u adjuvatnoj terapiji visokorizičnog melanoma. Unatoč brojnim studijama i meta analizama, interferon nije zaživio kao zlatni standard liječenja visokorizičnog melanoma. Pokazao je svakako benefit u vremenu do progresije bolesti (PFS, progression free survival) te u manjem dijelu u ukupnom preživljenju (OS, overall survival) pod cijenu visoke toksičnosti. Pojavom revolucionarnih terapija u liječenju metastatskog melanoma; imunoterapije, anti CTLA-4 (cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4) i anti PD-1 inhibitora (programmed cell death protein 1) te ciljane terapije (BRAF i MEK inhibitori) razmišljalo se o njihovom potencijalnom učinku u adjuvatnom/preventivnom smislu. Brojne studije faze II i III ispitivale su adjuvantnu primjenu ciljane terapije i imunoterapije u kompletno reseciranom stadiju III (IIIA, IIIB, IIIC) i stadiju IV (anti PD-1 inhibitor nivolumab). Pokazale su jasan benefit u vremenu do povratka bolesti (PFS) i ukupnom preživljenju (OS). Navedeni rezultati su promijenili smjernice za adjuvantnu terapiju kod melanoma u vidu registracije imunoterapije te ciljane terapije od strane FDA (Food and drug administration) i EMA (European medicines agency) za adjuvantnu primjenu. U tijeku su daljnja ispitivanja i u drugim visokorizičnim stadijima (npr. IIC) te neoadjuvantno liječenje stadija III

Analyzing Tram Line 17 Prečko - Borongaj in the City of Zagreb

Ovaj rad se temelji na analizi tramvajske linije 17 u Zagrebu. Glavne karakteristike linije su opisane u radu. Neodrživa mobilnost je problem u Zagrebu zbog velikog broja osobnih automobila na cesti što rezultira niskom brzinom prijevoza i zagušenjima. Cilj rada je prikupljanjem podataka o izmjeni putnika i popunjenosti vozila utvrditi iskorištenost ponuđenog kapaciteta linije te dati uvid u stanje brzina i vremena u prijevoznom procesu linije koristeći formule, grafikone i tablice izrađene temeljem stvarnih podataka kako bi se poboljšala učinkovitost javnog gradskog prijevoza Grada Zagreba.This paper is based on the analysis of tram Line 17 in the City of Zagreb. The main characteristics of the line are described in the thesis. Unsustainable mobility is a problem in Zagreb due to large number of private cars on roads resulting in low travel speeds and congestion. The goal of this paper is to determine the utilization of the offered capacity and provide an insight into speeds and travel times on the line using formulas, diagrams and tables, based on the collected data, and to improve efficiency of public transportation in the City of Zagreb

Positioning of new products based on the example of Croatia manufactures

Predmet ovog završnog rada je pozicioniranje novih proizvoda na primjerima hrvatskih proizvođača. Poslovni subjekti tijekom života na tržište plasiraju različite proizvode kojima žele privući potrošače na kupovinu i korištenje istih. Osim planiranja proizvodnje proizvoda poslovni subjekti posebnu pozornost obraćaju i na pozicioniranje novih proizvoda na tržište zato što ovisno o tome kako se novi proizvodi pozicioniraju na tržištu ovisi i sam uspjeh i dugoročni opstanak proizvoda na tržištu. Kod pozicioniranja je važno da poslovni subjekt kod pozicioniranja novih proizvoda odabere prave konkurentske prednosti na kojima će temeljiti svoju marketinšku kampanju i putem kojih će se istaknuti na tržištu kod svoje ciljne skupine potrošača te se poveže s potrošačima kroz buđenje pozitivnih emocija kod potrošača. Prilikom pozicioniranja novog proizvoda na tržište najuspješnija su oni poslovni subjekti koji provedu opsežno istraživanje tržišta, dobro upoznaju svoju ciljnu skupinu potrošača, detaljno razrade komunikacijski i marketinški plan vezan za pozicioniranje proizvoda te oni poslovni subjekti koji kontinuirano prate stanje na tržištu i na vrijeme se adaptiraju promjenama koje se događaju na istom. Poslovni subjekti Kraš grupa i Ledo plus d.o.o. uspješno posluju već godinama na velikom broju tržišta, a prilikom pozicioniranja novih proizvoda kroz provođenje marketinških aktivnosti kojima ističu karakteristike proizvoda, tradiciju koju njeguju u poslovanju i bude emocije u potrošačima postižu to da se njihovi proizvodi uspješno pozicioniraju na tržištu i bivaju dobro prihvaćeni od strane ciljnih potrošača.The subject of this final thesis is the positioning of new products based on the examples of Croatian manufacturers. During their lifetime, business entities market various products with which they want to attract consumers to purchase and use them. In addition to product production planning, business entities pay special attention to the positioning of new products on the market, because the very success and long-term survival of the product on the market depends on how the new products are positioned on the market. When positioning, it is important that the business entity, when positioning new products, chooses the right competitive advantages on which to base its marketing campaign and through which it will stand out on the market among its target group of consumers and connect with consumers through the awakening of positive emotions in consumers. When positioning a new product on the market, the most successful are those business entities which conduct extensive market research, get to know their target group of consumers well, elaborate in detail a communication and marketing plan related to product positioning, and those business entities which continuously monitor the market situation and adapt to changes in time which take place on the same. Business entities Kraš group and Ledo plus d.o.o. have been operating successfully for years on many markets, and when positioning new products through the implementation of marketing activities that emphasize the characteristics of the product, the tradition they nurture in business and arouse emotions in consumers, they achieve that their products are successfully positioned on the market and are well received by the target consumer
