INTERNATIONAL DIMENSION OF VARAŽDIN BAROQUE EVENINGS

Kada govorimo o međunarodnoj dimenziji festivala, možemo je promatrati, analizirati i mjeriti njezin utjecaj, širenje i učinke kroz nekoliko oblika i pojavnosti. Jedan je oblik međunarodne dimenzije – sudjelovanje inozemnih ansambala i orkestara, solista, dirigenata, redatelja, kostimografa, scenografa i sličnih autorskih osobnosti kroz svih 45 godina. Drugi su oblik te dimenzije – zemlje partneri i njihova uloga u razvoju međunarodnog utjecaja festivala od izmjene koncepcije 2006. godine. Treći su oblik intenzivne diplomatske, kulturne i gospodarstvene aktivnosti uprave festivala, organizatora i osnivača. Četvrti, također vrlo zamjetan i važan oblik su - praćenja i osvrti inozemnih novinara i medija. Peti tj.posljednji, ali ne manje važan oblik su – koncerti iz programa festivala održani u inozemstvu.When talking about the festival’s international dimension, we can observe, analyze and valorize its influence, widening and effects through few shapes and aspects. First is participation of foreign ensembles, orchestras, soloists, conductors, directors, costume designers, production designers and other authorial personalities during all 45 years of existence of the festival. Second aspect are partner countries and their role in development the festival’s international dimension, since modification of the concept in 2006. Third are intense diplomatic, cultural and economic activities of management board, organizers and founders. Forth, also notable and important aspect, are monitoring and reviews of foreign journalists and media. Fifth and finally yet importantly, are concerts within regular program of the festival, held abroad

Dreißig Jahre Familienplanung in Slowenien

Family planning programmes were introduced in Slovenia 35 years ago. Births were planned more successfully than pregnancies. The prevailing family planning method in the first stage was abortion, later on contraceptive use. Despite a consistent improvement in family planning and a decreased number of abortions, the maternal mortality rate among Slovenian women is still by three to five times higher than elsewhere in the developed world. Maternal mortality among adolescents is by three times higher than among older women, and their infants die more often than those born to older women. This makes adolescent pregnancies the most important risk factor for reproductive health.Programi obiteljskog planiranja uvedeni su u Sloveniju prije 35 godina. Rođenja su se uspješnije planirala od trudnoća. Prevladavajuća metoda planiranja obitelji u prvom je razdoblju bila prekid trudnoće, a kasnije upotreba sredstava za sprječavanje začeća. Usprkos dosljednom poboljšanju planiranja obitelji i smanjenju broja abortusa, smrtnost majki među slovenskim ženama još je uvijek tri do pet puta veća nego drugdje u razvijenom svijetu. Smrtnost adolescentnih majki je tri puta veća nego među starijim ženama, a njihova djeca umiru češće od djece koju rađaju starije žene. Stoga su trudnoće adolescentnih majki najznačajniji čimbenik rizika za reproduktivno zdravlje.Vor 35 Jahren wurden in Slowenien erstmals Programme zur Familienplanung eingeführt. Dabei erwies sich die Geburtenplanung erfolgreicher als die Planung der Zahl der Schwangerschaften. Die vorherrschende Methode der Familienplanung bestand zunächst im Schwangerschaftsabbruch, später in der Einnahme von Empfängnisverhütungsmitteln. Trotz der konsequenten Verbesserung der Familienplanung und der verringerten Zahl von Abtreibungen liegt die Sterblichkeitsrate unter slowenischen Frauen noch immer drei- bis fünfmal über den Durchschnittswerten in anderen Industriestaaten. Die Sterblichkeit von adoleszenten Gebärenden ist dreimal größer als die unter älteren Frauen, auch sterben Säuglinge gebärender Jugendlicher häufiger als die Säuglinge älterer Frauen. Es erweist sich also, daß Schwangerschaften in der Adoleszenz den größten Risikofaktor darstellen, der die Gesunderhaltung der Reproduktionsfähigkeit bei Frauen gefährdet

Migration and women’s health

Women have been migrating at similar rates to men for the past 40 years, and comprised about half of all migrants in 2005. Women and children are most affected by displacement as a result of wars and human trafficking. In some cases, the health of female migrants is improved via integration into better health systems in the host country. More often, however, the health of female migrants is affected negatively. Women are doubly disadvantaged because they are discriminated against as women and as migrants. Female migrants are also highly vulnerable to acts of sexual abuse, rape, and violence. This is especially true for women in refugee camps, whose reproductive health needs are often overlooked. To improve the health of female migrants it is important to develop and implement policies that recognize and insist on the respect of the rights of migrants.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/135215/1/ijgo179.pd

Comparative bioavailability of two oral formulations of clopidogrel: Determination of clopidogrel and its carboxylic acid metabolite (SR26334) under fasting and fed conditions in healthy subjects

Two randomized, single dose, 2-period, 2-sequence crossover studies were conducted to evaluate the comparative bioavailability of two clopidogrel formulations under fasting and fed conditions. Assessment of bioequivalence was based upon measurement of plasma concentrations of the parent drug, clopidogrel, and its major (inactive) metabolite, clopidogrel carboxylic acid, using improved methanol-free extraction. Bioequivalence of Krka’s formulation to the innovator’s formulation was demonstrated under both fasting and fed conditions on 205 volunteers. Confidence intervals for AUC0-t, AUC0-inf and Cmax of clopidogrel and its main metabolite were well within the acceptance range of 80.00 to 125.00 %. Food substantially increased the bioavailability of clopidogrel from both formulations, while no effect of food on the extent and rate of exposure to the metabolite was observed. The effect of food was comparable between the two formulations, as indicated by the same direction and rank of food impact on the bioavailability of both formulations

Placement of feet at shots in correlation of time and location of shot of elite squash players

Tehnika v skvošu je sestavljena iz posameznih tehničnih elementov, ki so medsebojno povezani in soodvisni ter se navezujejo v ponovljivih ciklih. Začetno stanje cikla nastopi z ustreznim postavljanjem igralca na področju T, na katerem igralec ob udarcu tekmeca izvaja pripravo na gibanje, sledi gibanje do žoge, ki ga igralec zaključi s postavitvijo pri udarcu. Kljub temu da je od postavitve pri udarcu precej odvisna uspešnost samega udarca, pa v strokovni in znanstveni literaturi ni zaslediti dela, ki bi podrobneje obravnavala tehniko skvoša z vidika postavitve nog pri udarcih. Zato je bil predmet in problem pričujoče raziskave analizirati postavitev nog pri udarcih v različnih delih igrišča in obenem ugotoviti vpliv predhodnega udarca in časa na postavitev igralcev pri udarcih v področjih v zadnjem delu igrišča. Rezultate smo pridobili na vzorcu 19 tekem mednarodnega turnirja British Grand Prix (Manchester, 2011). Vzorec igralcev je sestavljalo 21 igralcev, ki so v času turnirja zasedali od 1. do 65. mesta na svetovni jakostni lestvici. Postavitev pri udarcu smo razdelili na sonožno in v izpadni korak, pri čemer je bila slednja lahko pravilna oziroma nepravilna. Rezultate smo pridobili s pomočjo sledilnega sistema Tracker, ki je bil razvit na Fakulteti za elektrotehniko (UL). Vpliv predhodnega udarca in časa ter razlike med postavitvijo v posameznem področju igrišča smo ugotavljali s pomočjo metode hi-kvadrat v statističnem programu IBM SPSS. Igralci so v sprednjem delu igrišča v več kot 95-odstotnem deležu udarce izvedli s postavitvijo v izpadni korak. Ta postavitev je bila pogostejša tudi pri udarcih v področjih bližje stranskim stenam. Igralci so na bekend strani statistično značilno večkrat žogo udarili s pravilno postavitvijo v izpadni korak, na forhend strani pa z nepravilno postavitvijo. V zadnjem delu igrišča je bila ugotovljena statistično značilna razlika v postavitvi pri udarcu, pri čemer je na rezultate vplivala stran igrišča, predhodni udarec tekmeca in čas, ki ga je igralec imel na voljo za lastni odgovor oziroma udarec.The squash technique consists of separate interconnected and interdependent technical elements that relate in repeatable cycles. The initial state of the cycle begins with the appropriate position of the player in the T area where the player prepares for the movement when the opponent hits the ball, followed by a movement to the ball, which the player completes in the hitting position. Although the success of the hit itself depends on the position, the impact of leg position in the squash technique has not yet been thoroughly discussed in the academic and the scientific literature. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the position of the legs when hitting the ball in different parts of the field and at the same time to determine the impact of the previous hit and the impact of time on the position of players when hitting the ball in areas in the back of the field. The results were obtained on a sample of 19 matches of the British Grand Prix (Manchester, 2011). The sample of players consisted of 21 players that ranked 1st to 65th in the world rankings during each tournament. The hitting position of the player was divided into the two-feet position and the lunge position, whereby the latter may have been correct or incorrect. The results were obtained using the Tracker tracking system, which was developed at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering at the University of Ljubljana. The influence of the previous hit and the time, as well as the difference between the position in an individual area of the court, was determined using the Chi-square method in SPSS Statistics (IBM). In the front part of the field, the players took more than 95% of the shots by placing their legs in the lunge position. This position was also more common with hits in areas closer to the side walls. Statistically, the players hit the ball more often on the backend side correctly in the lunge position. However, on the forehand side, the players hit the ball more often incorrectly in the lunge position. In the back part of the court, a statistically significant difference in the hitting position was found, where the results were influenced by the side of the court, the opponent\u27s previous hit and the time the player had for his response
