    The commune Kikinda is situated in Banat, one of the richest regions of Yugoslavia, where socialistic relations in agriculture have been gone the furthest. Social sector of agriculture embraces about 40.00% of all land capacities and the productive cooperation between social agricultural enterprises and individual holdings is very developed. An analysis of the landownership structure undertaken in this article served to the author for determining some real presuppositions for the further expansion of the social sector of agriculture. It is based on the questionnaire on household carried out by the Institution for Professional Orientation and Employment in Kikinda in 1964. Among 19,504 households in the whole commune there are 10,604 with landestates or something over 55.00%. The author distinguishes eight groups of households with landestates: Ā»pureĀ« peasants, workers-peasants, peasant-clerk, Ā»pureĀ« clerks, tradesmen, pensioners and Ā»othersĀ«. Further the author analyses their structure according to the number of each group, amount of land in possession, professional orientation of their children, medial number of persons per each household, keeping an offspring on the holding etc. As the first and the second group is the most numerous and keep in their hands the largest quantity of agricultural surface the author separately undertook an analysis of age structure of active population living on those two groups of households. The author\u27s conclusion is that in the commune Kikinda quite real opportunities for the further enlargement of the social sector of agriculture and its cooperation with the individual landowners exist

    Structural requirements for ligands of the delta-opioid receptor

    The delta-opioid receptor is sensitive to ligand geometry. In order to assist the synthesis of new delta-selective opioid ligands, the structure elements of delta-selective opioid ligands necessary for their effective binding were investigated. The automated docking procedure with a flexible ligand was used to simulate the binding of 17 delta-selective ligands to the delta-receptor. It was found that voluminous N-alkyl groups reduce the binding potency of naltrindole derivatives by preventing the ligands from adopting the preferred conformation in the receptor. This was confirmed by enantiospecific binding of chiral compounds where only one enantiomer adopts the naltrindole-like preferred conformation in the binding pocket. Voluminous groups replacing the hydroxyl group in the 3-hydroxybenzyl fragment of naltrindole analogs reduce the binding potency due to unfavorable steric interactions with the receptor. The two diastereoisomers of the potent delta-opioid ligand SNC80 confirmed the preferred binding conformation and the major receptor-ligand interactions

    The aim of the research was to determine the correlation of morphological characteristics and fitness parameters of overweight and obese boys aged seven. The sample of participants consisted of 198 pupils (boys) aged seven years, from elementary schools from the territory of the city of NiÅ”, Paraćin, Bela Palanka, Leskovac and others, classified as a category with increased body mass or obesity. Morphological characteristics were determined by measuring parameters of longitudinal (3), transversal, (3) circular dimensions (3) and body mass and measurement of subcutaneous fat tissue (3). For the assessment of muscular fitness, body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness, the following tests were used: the plyometric leap, precancer-turn-off, percentage of body fat and Body Mass Index (BMI); a shuttle run test based on the calculated VO2max (L) and VO2max (ml/kg/min) values. A canonical correlation analysis was used to determine the correlation between morphological characteristics and fitness parameters. The level of statistical significance was set at .05. The results of the study showed that there is a statistically significant association (pĖ‚.01) between morphological characteristics and fitness parameters in overweight and obese boys aged seven. Participants who have higher values of voluminosity and body width have higher values of fat percentage in the body as well as BMI. Smaller explosive power was found in participants with higher values of skin folds. It has been determined that body mass and voluminosity positively affects the strength of the arm and shoulders, that is, they adversely affect the VO2max values

    SPONTANA REKANALIZACIJA TROMBA: NEOČEKIVANI NALAZ NA KORONARNOJ ANGIOGRAFIJI

    Introduction: Spontaneous recanalized coronary thrombi (SRCT) are a rare condition characterized by multiple channels divided by thin septa, communicating with each other, proximally and distally, with the normal coronary lumen. Highresolution intracoronary imaging techniques such as intravascular ultrasound or optical coherence tomography (OCT) enable routine study of the coronary artery lumen and wall. Case report: A 73-year-old male presented to the intensive care unit due to the loss of consciousness and transient extreme bradycardia recorded on electrocardiogram. Coronary angiogram revealed contrast defect on the right coronary artery (RCA). For better assessment of the angiographic fi nding, OCT was performed and confi rmed a honeycomb-like structure starting from medial RCA and propagating up to the distal part. As a result of the data acquired, the diagnosis of SRCT in the RCA was established. It was decided not to treat the RCA with stent implantation, and it was proceeded with optimal medicament therapy and pacemaker implantation. At three-month follow up, the patient reported no subjective symptoms and SPECT showed no signs of ischemia. Conclusion: While there are no appropriate recommendations for the treatment of SRCT yet, decision on treatment is based on imaging techniques fi ndings and physicianā€™s experience. Adequate follow up of these patients can provide important data needed for future guiding of the SRCT treatment.Uvod: Spontana rekanalizacija koronarnih tromba (SRKT) rijetko je stanje i karakteriziraju ga viÅ”estruki kanali podijeljeni tankim pregradama, koji međusobno komuniciraju, proksimalno i distalno, s normalnim lumenom koronarne krvne žile. Intrakoronarne slikovne tehnike visoke rezolucije poput intravaskularnog ultrazvuka ili optičke koherentne tomografi je (OCT) omogućavaju rutinsko proučavanje lumena i zida koronarne arterije. Prikaz bolesnika: 73-godiÅ”nji muÅ”karac primljen je u jedinicu intenzivne njege zbog gubitka svijesti i prolazne ekstremne bradikardije registririrane na elektrokardiogramu. Koronarni angiogram otkrio je kontrastni defekt na desnoj koronarnoj arteriji (RCA). Radi bolje procjene angiografskog nalaza provedena je OCT i potvrđena struktura nalik na saće, počevÅ”i od medijalnog segmenta RCA i Å”ireći se do distalnog dijela. Kao rezultat prikupljenih podataka postavljena je dijagnoza SRKT u RCA. Odlučeno je da se RCA ne liječi implantacijom stenta, nego se nastavilo s optimalnom terapijom lijekovima i implantacijom elektrostimulatora srca. Nakon tri mjeseca praćenja bolesnik nije prijavio nikakve subjektivne simptome, a SPECT nije pokazivao znakove ishemije. Zaključak: Iako joÅ” uvijek ne postoje odgovarajuće preporuke za liječenje SRKT-a, odluka o liječenju temelji se na nalazima slikovnih tehnika i iskustvu liječnika. Odgovarajuće praćenje ovih bolesnika može pružiti važne podatke potrebne za buduće smjernice u liječenju SRKT-a
