Summary:
Forced expiratory volumes and flows (forced vital
capacity (FVC), Forced expiratory volume in one second
(FEV), peak expiratory flow (PEF), maximal expiratory flow
at 25% (MEF25%), 50% (MEF50%) and 75% (MEF75%) of the FVC)
have been measured in 909 healthy nonsmoking men and women,
ranging in age from 18-86 yrs, who live on Eastern Adriatic
islands (Yugoslavia). This area is essentially free from air
pollution. The results have been analysed in terms of age
and height and regression equations for each sex were
derived. The equations for FVC and FEV1 were reliable and
those for forced expiratory flow were not. Comparisons were
made with prediction equations derived for other
populations, especially with those which are commonly used
in daily medical practice.
Keywords: Eastern Adriatic islands, maximal expiratory flow-volume curves, reference lung function values

Summary: Active Anterior Rhinomanometry using a Mercury Electronic
NR6 Rhinomanometer was carried out on 70 subjects. The
subjects were healthy, of both sexes, and aged 17-45;
objective rhinoscopic and fibrescopic examination showed
disturbed nose breathing. The subjects were examined before
decongestion; then 4 drops of 1% Neo SyneprineR was put in
each nose, and the subjects were examined again 10-15
minutes after decongestion. All the subjects were examined
under similar conditions of air humidity and temperature.
Nasal airway resistance of right and left nose ranged from
0.386 to 0.291 Pacm3s-1 before decongestion and from 0.34 to
0.207 Pacm3s-1 after decongestion. Statistical analysis was
carried out with Non-parametric Methods for paired samples.
Nasal resistance (Rn) and total nasal resistance (TRn) were
significantly lower after decongestion of the nasal mucosa
than before. Rn and TRn were higher during expiration than
during inspiration. The results are compared with those
similar studies in the literature.

Summary: One hundred and fory-five paine patiens were tested for
the
presence of presonality traits connected with psychologic
vulnerability, traits often found among chronic back -pain
patients. All patients in the experimental group and the
helthy individuals in control group were tested with
Patient Pain Drawing test (PPD)and with Minnesota Multhi
phasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) on the scales
hypochondiasis (Hs), depression (D), and Hysteria (Hy). The
patiant group differed significantly from the control group
on average Hs, D, Hy scores and on the quantified PPD
(measuring somatization proneness). The Patients with the
higher PPD scores had the highest values on MMPI (Hs, D,
Hy), and patients with low scores on the PPD -indicating low
tendency to somatize- had MMPI values that personality may
influence the individual's tendency to somatize and express
psychic and psychosocial problems as somatic pain.

Summary: Intentions of present investigations were: a) to describe
the basic properties of the general simulation models and b)
to underline specificity of a cybernetic model aplication in
description of bio-systems. Living systems, whether
individuals or populations have characteristics of bio-
systems and should be analyzed accordingly. As an example
for cybernetic model construction authors selected
previously published own data on demography of island Pag.
The obtained results suggest that application of the
cybernetic model to investigate bio-system will be of
considerable interest.

Summary: Nine children with acute posterior uveitis were treated for
period of 3 years (3.2% of all children treated during that
period). The authors speak in favor of the investigation of
the HLA-system and analysis of humoral and cellular
immunologic parameters. In this study they present the
relationship between these characteristcs and the clinical
diagnosis. Three of 9 children have with eye diseases
associated HLA-B5 and HLA-B12 antigens and grave
consequences for sight of both eyes already as children. The
results of immunologic tests in the examined group compared
to the control group differ significantly in total number of
B lymphocytes and serum values of IgG, as well as C3 values
of complement component (P<0.05). Seen in percentage,
however, the ratio of T to B lymphocytes , as well as the
total number of leukocytes don't show significant
differences. We consider that a proper and well-aimed
history and complete etiological detection according to the
protocol have contributed to a clearer understanding and
better insight into the prognosis of our patients.

Summary: Morphometry of the second, third and fourth metacarpal
bone was performed on hand-wrist radiograms of both hands in
a sample of 434 male and 549 female adult subjects.
Morphometric data (bone length-L, total diaphysis width-T
and medullary canal width-M) and age were processed using
principal factor analysis with oblique rotation, separately
for males and females. In both sexes three factors
accounting for 74.7% of the total variance were extracted,
but their patterns of variation differed. Factors
"cumulative environmental-genetic factor", "longitudinal
factor", and "transversal factor" are discussed within the
context of their biological meaning affecting the phenotypic
formation of metacarpal skeleton in a given population.

Summary: A rare case of an intracranially located supernumerary
tooth was described, observed over a period of 14 years,
where movement was established laterally in relation to the
referent Carthesian coordinate system, down and forward with
rotation around the anteroposterior axis. During skull
growth, the skull base angle changed by 20o , but this
movement only affected the change in tooth position
slightly. During the observation period, no further changes
in the neurological findings were observed.

Summary: The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of
evaporating aromatic hydrocarbons, styrene, xylene and
benzene on the survival of the snails Amphimelania halandri
Fer and Lymnaea strangalis L. as well as the crustaceans
Asselus aquaticus L. and Gammarus fossarum Koch. Tests were
carried out during acute poisoning (120 hours) in laboratory
conditions.
In the tests certain physico-chemical parameters linked to
toxic effect of the examined compound were measured: water
temperature, pH, total hardness and oxygen concentration.
Although the measured values of the above parameters agree
with the data of the other authors, in our tests we did not
observe any dependence, apart from oxygen, the lack of which
had to be compensated for by aeration.

Summary: This study, based on a sample of our urban population, has
been undertaken aiming to assess the role of fibrinogen in
coronary heart disease. A total of 176 subjects (115 males
and 61 females) were included in this study. Of these
subjects, a total of 84 persons were ill, but without
coronary heart disease in their case histories. Descriptive
statistics and Principal Component Analysis were carried out
using variables as it follows: fibrinogen, the total
cholesterol values (CH), triglycerides (TG) high density
lipoproteins (HDL) and low density lipoproteins (LDL), the
atherosclerosis Index (LDL/HDL) and Established Risk Factor
(ERF= CH/HDL). In total space in the Principal Component
Analysis three dominant factors were seen which explains
altogether 71.5% variances.
Increase in fibrinogen level correlates with factor two and
three (the protective factor and the age factor
respectively). The factors (2 and 3) do not correlate with
risk factors LDL/HDL and ERF. The presented investigation
have shown the importance of the factor analysis, since
univariate methods may lead to mistakes in the
interpretation of the role of individual variables,
depending on what extent any of the factors mentioned is
presented in the sample.

Summary: The paper presents the immunogenecity of hepatitis vaccine
(obtained by genetic engineering) in imunocompromised
patients with preterminal renal insufficiency defined by
depression of creatine clearance of 10 to 25 ml/min. This
study consisted of 28 randomized patients with impaired
renal function. Sixteen patients received a single dose
and, twelve a double dose of vaccine. Revaccination
following 3 intramuscular doses of vaccine had been
undertaken after 24 weeks if antibodies were not detected
or their titer was 10 i.u. or less. All patients obtained a
booster dose following 52 weeks . There was no statistically
significant difference in titer values between
immunocompromised patients regardless of whether they were
vaccinated with a single or double dose. The antibody titer
in patients with chronic renal insufficiency was
significantly lower as compared with the results of
vaccination in healthy population. It may be concluded that
it is more beneficial and less expensive to use a single
dose vaccine and revaccination if the titer is negative or
insufficiently high.

Summary: It is shown that simple first-orfer nonlinear difference
equations may be applied to define and simulate, according
to Hooke's law, the intraocular volume (V) and pressure (P)
relationship during distension of the eye coats, as well as
dynamical behaviour of tje coeffients of outflow facility
(C) and ocular rigidity (K). By means of mathematical
symulation new and corrected tonomeric and tonographic
tables, experimentally verified, are given. A new parameter,
kinetic coefficient of the barrier's (protein) mass transfer
(k) is introduced and its relationship to the aqueous humor
outflow facility is observed. The mathematical aspects of
the structural and functional behaviour of the biomedical
compartmental systems, exposed to the internal and external
volume and pressure changes, are briefly discussed.

Summary:
A generalized model of mass and particles transfer through
the blood-body fluids is described. The theories of Abstract
automata, choice & decision making, probability and fuzzy
sets are applied in order to obtain algorithms and
equations to define the functioning of such systems.
Special emphasis is given to the protein transfer problem at
the blood-aqueous humor and blood- cerebrospinal fluid
barriers. Comparison of this mathematical model to the
empirical ones as well as its possible application to
artificial barrier construction are briefly discussed.

Summary: The evaluation of intraocular IgG immune response was
performed in patients with uncomplicated senile cataracts
and patients with cataracts complicated by type II diabetes.
The IgG evaluation was performed by means of two highly
sensitive techniques- IgG aqueous humor index and detection
of oligoclonal aqueous humor IgG. The results point to the
presence of activated intraocular IgG immune response in the
group of cataracts complicated by diabetes. The possible
implications of those findings are briefly discussed.

Summary: The objective of this study is to explore the possibility
of implementation of McBride's rating scale in invalidity
reevaluation. A random sample of recently retired disabled
persons (N=98) was selected from regions where the number of
approved pensioners (1989-1990) was above average for the
Republic Croatia. Those who responded (N=71) were divided in
two groups: correctly and incorrectly assessed. The
correctness of decisions by First Degree Commissions was
reexamined. McBride's rating scale was implemented to the
each group separately, and the rating compared between the
correctly and incorrectly assessed groups. Statistical
analyses included descriptive methods, chi-square tests,
correlation analyses, analyses of covariance and canonical
discrimination analysis. There was significant statistical
difference in McBride's rating between the groups. In
disability assessment significant difference were found in
McBride's ratings of anatomic and physiological tissue
damage, clinical manifestation security and endurance.

Summary: An epidemiological system of the dynamics of infectious
diseases was worked out, consisting of a data base and
general simulation model of the dynamics of infectious
diseases. The data base includes data on populations on
which the dynamics and epidemiological parameters which
characterize certain diseases will be simulated. Data from
this basis are input parameters into general simulation
model. By using the model it is possible to simulate the
natural course of diseases and the various preventive
measures and other interventions by man on the course of
disease. The validity of the model is shown in the data on
the movement of infectious diseases in the Trešnjevka
community in Zagreb during period from 1961 to 1991. Acutely
infectious diseases were chosen for which vaccination is
obligatory, A and B hepatitis. In the case of well defined
parameter it was shown that the model successfully simulates
various epidemiological situations.
