The association between thyroid parameters and insulin resistance in patients with autoimmune thyroid disease
-
Paul Philipp Kastner Objectives: Our main goal was to observe associations between laboratory thyroid parameters
free triiodothyronine (fT3), free thyroxine (fT4), thyroid-stimulating-hormone (TSH), thyroid
peroxidase antibodies (TPOAbs), thyroglobulin antibodies (TgAbs), deiodinase activity
(SPINA-GD), thyrotroph thyroid resistance index (TTSI), thyroid stimulating hormone index
(TSHI), and the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). We were
particularly interested in comparing these...

The correlation between adenoid hypertrophy and chronic otitis media with effusion in children
-
Marta Vucemilovic Objectives: The purpose of this study is to confirm whether there is a correlation between adenoid hypertrophy and the incidence of otitis media with effusion in children that are of school age or younger. Additionally, this study aims to clarify which age groups are at greater risk in having high grade adenoid hypertrophy associated with otitis media with effusion, and which are the most common presenting symptoms among those patients.
Methods: Sixty- five patients aged 2-12 years old were...

The correlation between results in different domains of cogitive abilities in medical students
-
Aisha Qazzafi Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the correlations between IQ test scores performed through the Raven’s Advanced Progressive Matrices (APM) and cognitive testing through the Complex Reactionmeter Drenovac (CRD) test battery.
Subjects and methods: From 2017-2019, 224 medical students at the University of Split School of Medicine (USSM) studying in the English and Croatian programme were recruited for this study. The IQ scores of the students were assessed using...

The early outcome of thrombectomy in patients with basilar artery stroke
-
Malin Charlotte Monsen Snarberg Objective:
The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the early outcome of patients with stroke caused by basilar artery occlusion after endovascular treatment – thrombectomy. The aim was also to determine whether there are some predictors of good outcome and to compare our results with already published data.
Materials and methods:
We included 16 patients with proven BAO treated with thrombectomy from the Department of Neurology in University Hospital Split in the timeframe...

The effect of physical therapy treatment on shoulder pain, mobility and functional index in the working population
-
Johanna Sophie Dirkwinkel Objectives: Shoulder pain is reported to be one of the most common types of musculoskeletal pain and known for causing numerous days of sick leave in the working population. Thus the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of physical therapy on pain, mobility and functional index in order to find an appropriate treatment regimen to lessen the significant burden for the well-being of the patient and the health-care economics.
Methods: A clinical trial was performed between March and...

The effects of long-term diabetes mellitus on adult neurogenesis in subventricular zone of the rat brain
-
Tim Hendrik Boy Objectives: Diabetes mellitus has been associated with increased risk of cognitive decline, dementia, depression and anxiety. The aims of this study were to determine the influence of aging and long-term type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) on the rate of adult neurogenesis in subventricular zone of rats, as well as to determine the possible role of DSTYK protein in the adult neurogenesis in subventricular zone of rats as a possible disease mechanism.
Material and Methods: Thirty-five male...

The effects of moderate daily red wine intake on arterial stiffness and hemodynamic parameters in type 2 diabetes mellitus
-
Anika Katarina Januš Introduction: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a prevalent cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly due to chronic complications development, most commonly cardiovascular diseases. Among markers for assessment of clinical and subclinical signs of cardiovascular disease, the presence of arteriosclerosis, and stiffening of arterial walls as indicated by the arterial stiffness, was proven to be an important predictor of adverse cardiovascular events. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity...

The expression of Pannexin 1 in the developing human spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia
-
Julia Christina Zeitler Objectives: The objective of this study was to explore the expression of Pannexin 1 (Panx1) in
the spinal cord (SC) and ganglia of human conceptus during early phase of intrauterine
development.
Material and methods: The human conceptus tissue was collected from the Department of
Gynecology and Obstetrics and the Department of Pathology after tubal pregnancies or after
spontaneous abortions. The immunohistochemistry procedure was used to visualize the targeted
proteins. The data...

The expression pattern of Notch2 and Dab1 in the postnatal kidney of Dab1-/- mice
-
Larissa Gudelj Ensor Objectives: The expression and localization of Dab1 adaptor proteins and Notch2 receptors in the nephrons of yotari (Dab1 -/-), heterozygote (Dab1 +/-), and Wildtype (Dab1 +/+) mice was analyzed to further develop their suggested importance in mammal kidneys overall, but also their significance particularly in yotari mice nephrons.
Materials and methods: yotari, heterozygote and wildtype mice were sacrificed on the 4th postnatal day. Paraffin embedded kidney tissue sections were analyzed...
