The methodical approach to epic folk poems with gospel motives

У овом раду су обрађене епске народне песме с јеванђељским, хришћанским мотивима које је српски народ вековима, поред паганских мотива, највише у њих уграђивао исказујући тако своје погледе на свет и на живот. Кроз њих је поимао шта је добро, а шта зло; шта је правда, а шта је неправда. Кроз њих се огледа живот народни, његова мука и патња, јунаштво, радост и лепота, али и чежња за слободом и жртва за њу. Захваљујући тим јеванђељским мотивима генерације људи су се управо преко епских народних песама упознале са Јеванђељем. У почетку хришћанства, историјски услови прогона хришћана довели су до тога да се Јеванђеље (Εσαγγέλιον) ширило мање по синагогама, а много више по приватним кућама широм Римског царства. На сличан начин, прогони у турско доба довели су да се код српског народа, као на почетку хришћанске историје, Јеванђеље шири у приватним домовима кроз епске народне песме. Последице оваквог историјског и културног приступа су евидентне и ми смо покушали да их покажемо кроз овај рад. Тако на пример у песмама где год има јеванђељских мотиванеупоредиво је мање крви, мржње, бритких сабљи, тешких буздована, поломљених јуначких костију, а више је љубави, правде, милосрђа, покајања, праштања и поштења. Многипроучаваоци српске народне књижевности нису узимали у обзир православну веру и њен утицај,на песму, на живот нашег народа, његовог делања и стварања. Далеко више су проучавани митолошки и пагански мотивинего јеванђељски.Неки су чак тврдили да и нема толико блискости између Јеванђеља и епске песме што је и разлог да се, и поред уложеног труда, није долазило до озбиљних и утемељених резултата.Уколико се и наглашавао хришћански утицај, он се обично сводио на проналажење мотива Старог завета у њима, а никако, или сасвим ретко Новог завета. Стога, ова дисертација полази од указивања на поменути проблем до налажења праве мере између ових крајности. Наиме, специфичност јеванђељских мотива огледа се у њиховој двострукој семантици – књижевној и теолошкој. Паралела између епске поезије и Јеванђеља је уочена иовај рад смо доживели као изазов спајања методике, књижевности и наставе веронауке, са циљемда помогне ученицима да разумеју не само верско градиво, већ да, управо помоћу тог знања, разумеју и друге предмете који ће им помагати да примене научено градиво у свакодневном животу...This work is about Serbian epic poetry with evangelical, Christian motives, which were embedded throughout the centuries, alongside pagan motives, into the epic poetry. In this way Serbian people have expressed their outlook on world and life. Through this poetry they also perceived what was right and what was wrong; what was just and what was unjust. They expressed the way of life at the time and people‘s troubles and sufferings, heroism, joy and beauty, longing for freedom and sacrificing for it.Thanks to these evangelical motives, the following generations were introduced to the Gospel. At the beginning of Christianity, historical circumstances of the persecution of Christians led to the fact that the Gospel (Εσαγγέλιον) was heard at private houses alongside Roman Empire, much more than at synagogues. In the similar way, during the Turkish reign, Serbian people - just like the early Christians in the Roman Empire- spread the word of the Gospel at private homes through epic poetry. The consequences of this historical and cultural approach are evident, and we tried to distinguish them in this work. For example, wherever evangelical motives are present there is far less blood, hatred, sharp swards, heavy maces, heroes‘ broken bones, and there‘s much more love, justice, charity, repentance, forgiveness and honesty. Many scholars who studied Ser-bian poetry have misunderstood Orthodox religion and its influence on people‘s lives and work through poetry. They focused more on mythological and pagan motives rather than on evangelical ones. Some even claimed that there‘s no similarity between the Gospel and the epic poetry, which was a reason why no one came to serious conclusions on this subject. Even if they tried to point out Christian influence, it ended up being an Old Testament motive, almost never one from the New Testament. Therefore, this doc-toral dissertation has a starting point at indicating this problem and finding the right ratio between these two extremes. Evangelical motives are specific for their double se-mantics – literal and theological. A parallel between epic poetry and the Gospel has been recognized and this work represents a challenge of joining methods, literature and religious education, with the aim to help students to get to know not only religious ma-terial, but also to understand other subjects, which will help them apply this knowledge in everyday life..

Lipidni status trkačkih konja nakon fizičkog opterećenja različitog intenziteta i trajanja

The aim of this research was to determine the effects of physical activity on the lipid status in racehorses in a gallop race and a forty-kilometre endurance ride. Two groups of healthy 3-5-year-old full-blooded racehorses were assessed. The first one ran a 2 400-m gallop race, which is considered a short-lasting, intense physical activity; lipid status was assessed prior to, and 48 and 72 h after the race. The second group ran a forty-kilometre endurance ride, which is a long-lasting moderate physical activity; the lipid status was assessed immediately before, soon after and 48, 72, 96, 120 and 144 h after finishing the race. In intense physical activity the parameters of lipid status (total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, free cholesterol and triglycerides) remained stable at all times assessed in comparison with basal concentrations (p>0.05). Following the long-lasting moderate physical activity a slight, although statistically insignificant (p>0.05), increase in the concentrations of total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, free cholesterol and LDL cholesterol was noticed immediately after the endurance ride in comparison to the values before the ride. By contrast, the concentration of LDL cholesterol increased immediately after the gallop race, which was followed by its significant decrease (p lt 0.05) 96, 120 and 144 h after the ride in comparison to the values both before and immediately after the ride. Unlike in the gallop race, immediately after the 40-km endurance ride there was a plummet in triglyceride concentration (p lt 0.01), but was followed by its statistically significant increase (p lt 0.05 and p lt 0.01) at all sampling times in comparison to the value on finishing the ride. In horses which ran the gallop race there was a high positive correlation between the concentrations of total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides before, 72 and 96 h after the race (r = 0.9278, p lt 0.001). In those which ran the endurance ride a high positive correlation between the concentrations of total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol was noticed on finishing the ride (r=0.7395 p lt 0.01), as well as at all sampling times which followed. In addition, there was a positive correlation between the concentrations of HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol 72 h (r=0.6843, p lt 0.01) after the ride. Aerobic exercise decreases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, partly because it is accompanied by the moderate increase in serum concentration of HDL cholesterol, decrease in total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, which all result in the improvement in lipid profile in horses which completed the endurance ride.Cilj ovog rada je bio utvrđivanje efekata fizičkog opterećenja različitog intenziteta tokom galopske trke i endjurans trke, na lipidni status trkačkih konja. U ispitivanju su učestvovali zdravi punokrvni trkački konji, starosti 3-5 godina, podeljeni u dve grupe. Prva grupa trkačkih konja podvrgnuta je kratkotrajnom fizičkom opterećenju visokog intenziteta tokom galopske trke na 2400 m, i lipidni status je određivan pre učešća u trci, 48 h i 72 h posle istrčane trke. Druga grupa trkačkih konja podvrgnuta je prolongiranom fizičkom opterećenju niskog intenziteta tokom endjurans trke na 40km, a lipidni status je određivan pre učešća u trci, neposredno posle istrčane trke, 48 h, 72 h, 96 h, 120 h i 144 h posle istrčane trke. Kod fizičkog vežbanja visokog intenziteta parametri lipidnog statusa (ukupni holesterol, HDL-holesterol, LDL-holesterol, slobodni holesterol i trigliceridi) ostaju stabilni u svim ispitivanim vremenskim intervalima u odnosu na bazalne koncentracije (p>0,05). Nakon dugotrajnog fizičkog vežbanja niskog intenziteta uočen je blagi porast koncentracije ukupnog holesterola, HDL-holesterola, slobodnog holesterola i LDL-holesterola odmah nakon endjurans trke na 40km u odnosu na vrednosti pre trke, mada dobijeni rezultati nisu pokazali statističku značajnost (p>0,05). Nasuprot njima, koncentracija LDL-holesterola se povećala neposredno nakon trke, a potom se statistički značajano smanjivala u uzorcima uzetim 96 h, 120 h i 144 h nakon trke u odnosu na vrednost pre trke i neposredno nakon trke (p lt 0,05). Za razliku od galopske trke, neposredno nakon endjurans trke na 40 km došlo je do naglog statistički značajnog pada koncentracije triglicerida (p lt 0,01), a potom je u svim narednim ispitivanim vremenskim intervalima dokazan njihov statistički značajan porast (p lt 0,05 i p lt 0,01) u odnosu na vrednosti triglicerida neposredno nakon trke. Kod galopske trke ustanovljena je međusobna visoka pozitivna korelacija između koncentracije ukupnog holesterola, koncentracije HDL-holesterola i koncentracije triglicerida pre, 72 h i 96 h posle trke (r = 0,9278, p lt 0,001). Kod endjurans trke ustanovljena je medjusobna visoka pozitivna korelacija između koncentracije ukupnog holesterola i HDL-holesterola neposredno nakon trke (r = 0,7395, p lt 0,01), kao i u svim ispitivanim vremenskim intervalima posle endjurans trke. Dokazana je i pozitivna korelacija između koncentracije HDL- holesterola i LDL-holesterola 72 h (r = 0,6843, p lt 0,01) nakon trke. Aerobnim vežbanjem se smanjenje rizik od razvoja kardiovaskularnih bolesti, delimično usled pratećeg umerenog povećanja serumske koncentracije HDL-holesterola uz redukciju ukupnog holesterola, LDL-holesterola i triglicerida, što sve zajedno rezultira poboljšanjem lipidnog profila krvi konja koji su trčali endjurans trku

[A comparative cephalometric study of cases with normal occlusion and malocclusions]

Autori su izvršili kefalometrijsko ispitivanje 60 slučajeva, koji su bili podeljeni u tri grupe: 20 slučajeva pravilne okluzije, 20 slučajeva nepravilnosti klase II odeljenje 1, i 20 slučajeva nepravilnosti klase III. Cilj ispitivanja bio je da se odrede prosečne vrednosti raznih kefalometrijskih promera za slučajeve sa pravilnom okluzijom i da se one uporede sa vrednostima koje su odredili strani autori. Osim toga, analizirajući slučajeve sa nepravilnostima klase II od. 1 i klase III, autori su želeli da provere da li telerendgenografska ispitivanja potvrđuju kliničku dijagnozu. Za ovaj rad odabrani su sledeći uglovi: SNA, SNB, AN Bi, međuvilični, mandibular- ni, nagib gornjih sekutića, nagib donjih sekutića i međusekutićni. Dobijeni rezultati su obrađeni statistički, i određene su srednje vrednosti i standardna devijacija za svaki posmatrani ugao. Upoređivanjem dobijenih srednjih vrednosti za pravilnu okluziju sa srednjim vrednostima koje su dali engleski, nemački i američki autori, nađene su izvesne razlike. Upoređivanjem slučajeva pravilne okluzije sa slučajevima nepravilnosti ll/l i III klase, nađeno je da kefalometrijska analiza potvrđuje kliničku dijagnozu. Autori su iz ovoga zaključili da je potrebno izvršiti šira ispitivanja jugoslovenskog stanovništva sa pravilnom okluzijom radi određivanja prosečnih vrednosti raznih kefalometrijskih promera, kao i da telerendgenografska analiza slučajeva pravilne okluzije, nepravilnosti klase ll/l i nepravilnosti klase III potvrđuje kliničku dijagnozu.The athors made a cephalometric examination ot 60 cases, consisting of three groups: 20 cases of normal occlusion, 20 cases of Class II div. 1 malocclusion and 20 cases of Class II malocclusion. Their intention was to find the mean values of different cephalometric measures in cases with normal occlusion, and to compare these value with those of foreign authors. Analyzing the cases of Class II div. 1 and Class III malocclusions, the authors wanted also to check up whether cephalometric examinations confirm clinical diagnosis. For this purpose following angles were measured: SNA, SNB, ANB, intermaxillary planes angle, gonial angle, the inclination of upper incisors, the inclination of lower incisors and the interincisal angle. All the data were statistically analyzed, and both the mean values and standard deviations for each observed angle were found. The comparison between the mean values in normal occlusion cases in this analysis and those of English, German and American authors was made, and it was found that they do not correspond to each other. The comparison made between cases of normal occlusion and of malocclusions showed that the cephalometric analysis confirms the clinical diagnosis. The authors concluded that it would be necessary to undertake some wide investigation of Yugoslav citizens with normal occlusion in order to establish the mean values of different cephalometric measures

Biodegradation of methyl tert-butyl ether by Kocuria sp.

Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) has been used to replace the toxic compounds from gasoline and to reduce emission of air pollutants. Due to its intensive use, MTBE has become one of the most important environment pollutants. The aim of this paper is isolation and identification of the bacteria from wastewater sample of “HIP Petrohemija” Pančevo (Serbia), capable of MTBE biodegradation. The results of the investigation showed that only the bacterial isolate 27/1 was capable of growth on MTBE. The result of sequence analyzes of 16S rDNA showed that this bacterial isolate belongs to the Kocuria sp. After the incubation period of 86 days, the degradation rates of initial MTBE concentration of 25 and 125 μg/ml were 55 and 36%, respectively. These results indicated that bacteria Kocuria sp. is successfully adapted on MTBE and can be potentially used in bioremediation of soils and waters contaminated with MTBE

Ru layers electrodeposited onto highly stable Ti2AlC substrates as cathodes for hydrogen evolution in sulfuric acid solutions

In this work, the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was studied on Ru coated Ti2AlC electrodes in 1.0 mol dm(-3) H2SO4 at 25 degrees C. Ti2AlC was found to be a highly stable substrate in sulfuric acid solutions due to the formation of a passivating oxide layer on the surface, which was confirmed by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis of as-prepared and anodically treated Ti2AlC samples. Ru films were electrodeposited onto Ti2AlC substrates by cycling the potential of Ti2AlC in the solution containing 0.01 mol dm(-3) RuCl3 + 0.1 mol dm(-3) H2SO4 between -0.5 V and 0.4 V vs. a saturated calomel electrode (SCE) at the sweep rate of 20 mV s(-1). Four Ru/Ti2AlC samples were prepared, obtained at 5, 10, 15 and 20 cycles of Ru electrodeposition. Characterization of samples was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cyclic voltammetry (CV), while the thickness of the electrodeposited Ru layers was determined by atomic force microscopy (AFM). It was found that the most compact sample with the thickness of about 0.42 mu m was obtained after 5 cycles. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and steady-state polarization measurements showed that all Ru/Ti2AlC electrodes were exceptionally active for the HER. A Tafel slope of about -60 mV dec(-1) was observed on all polarization curves in the range of high cathodic current densities. Based on formal kinetics analysis, an appropriate mechanism for the HER on Ru/Ti2AlC was suggested.This is the peer-reviewed version of the article: Jovic, B. M., Jović, V.

Results of otoplasty by scoring anterior surface of auricular cartilage

A prominent ear, so called a protruding or 'lop' ear, is the most common congenital deformity of the external ear. This deformity persists when the mastoid-helix angle (MHA) is higher than 30 degrees. It is relatively common among the population with the incidence of about 5%. The aim of this study is to present surgical procedure and our results using otoplasty with scoring anterior surface of the auricular cartilage. To analyze objective and subjective surgical procedure effects. Between 2011 and 2014 we treated 28 patients. We found statistically high significance p<0.01 in value mastoid-helix angle (MHA) preoperative and postoperative. In patients with bilateral otoplasty the difference between left and right MHAs after surgical procedure is less than 4 degrees. The difference of head-helix distance (HHD) preoperative and postoperative is statistically important with high significance p<0.05. Preoperative satisfaction by personal appearance was better after surgical procedure p<0.05. Complications occurred in 9 cases (32.4%). Otoplasty by scoring anterior surface of auricular cartilage is safe procedure for correction of prominent ear with excellent results on patient satisfaction by personal appearance. Effect of reducing the MHA and HHD is long lasting

Levels of Presepsin and Midregion-Proadrenomedullin in Septic Patients with End-Stage Renal Disease after Cardiovascular Surgery: 1-Year Follow Up Study

Background: Procalcitonin (PCT) is a marker for sepsis diagnosis, identification of bacterial infection and monitoring of antibiotic therapy. It has been shown that PCT is not a good choice in patients with hemodialysis. Therefore, we have explored two biomarkers: a) presepsin, and, b) midregion-proadrenomedullin (MR-proADM) in patients having End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Patients and Methods: We prospectively enlisted 20 patients, who underwent cardiovascular surgery and had been on dialysis. The diagnosis of sepsis has been established clinically and confirmed by PCT. Blood samples were taken before and after dialysis. Additionally, plasma and sera of 10 healthy blood donors without any complications were used as controls. Results: Presepsin plasma concentrations (4368 ± 3088 vs. 694.1 ± 239.1 pg/mL) were significantly higher in patients with sepsis compared with controls (p0.05) with no significance between alive and deceased (p=0.53) patients. Adjustments have shown that the difference for MR-proADM level is due to the random sampling variability (p=0.989), whereas difference for presepsin remained highly significant (p<0.001). Conclusions: Our results indicate that the accuracy of new biomarkers is equal to that of PCT in patients with ESRD. Presepsin might be as good marker in repeated measurements, before and after dialysis, as it is PCT. © 2014 Maravic-Stojkovic V, et al
