Sažetak
Metiljavost (fascioloidoza) je parazitsko oboljenje jetre koje se javlja kod jelena u ritskim ravničarsko šumskim lovištima, rjeđe u planinskim.
Uzročnici ove bolesti su dvije vrste metilja, ...koje pripadaju skupini plosnatih crva, i to veliki (Fasciola hepatica seu Distomum
hepaticum) i mali metilj (Dicrocoelium dendriticum). Cilj rada je bio utvrditi utjecaj razvoja bolesti na brojnost jelenske divljači, postupke
i mogućnosti liječenja, brojnost jelena nakon primjene lijeka tijekom nekoliko godina, kao i utjecaj ove bolesti na kvalitetu
turističke ponude u lovištu specijalnog rezervata prirode "Gornje podunavlje“. Po procjeni lovnih stručnjaka i zdravstvenog stanja
odstrijeljenih jelena, invadiranost je stalno rasla, od početnih 20% do konačnih 90%. Metiljavost je nedvosmisleno utjecala na pogoršanje
ukupnog zdravstvenog stanja populacije jelena, s vrlo visokim stupnjem smrtnosti. Situacija se počela značajno mijenjati
2006. godine, kada se pristupilo tretmanu jelena s antiparazitskim prepartom (Albendazol) i to putem koncentrirane hrane i soli.
Primjena ovakvog tretmana je dala vrlo dobre rezultate.
Several natural materials and vegetable waste have relevant mechanical properties, mainly in its fiber format. Particularly, banana fiber (BF) provides a close behavior to the widely spread glass ...fibers, which places it in an advantageous position for use as a reinforcing material in plastic composites. This work characterizes the behavior of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), high impact polystyrene (HIPS), and high density polyethylene (HDPE) reinforced with short fibers of bananas from the Canary Islands for its application in molding processes. Several thermal analyses (Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), and Melt Flow Index (MFI)) and mechanical tests (tensile, flexural, impact, and Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA)) were carried out in composites with different percentages of banana fiber. The thermal results show that the use of banana fiber is viable as a reinforcement in composites for injection molding processes and the mechanical tests indicate an increase in stiffness and an improvement in maximum flexural stress by increasing the fiber content in composites, so the banana fiber turns out to be a natural alternative for the reinforcement of injected plastic components.
The objective of this study was to analyse the pattern of medication prescribing among dental practitioners in the Republic of Croatia and to compare it with general medical practice patterns at the ...national level.
Data on drug prescriptions were obtained from the Croatian Health Insurance Fund. The number of dentist prescriptions, the cost of medicine denominated in the national currency (Croatian Kuna HRK), and the number of packages and days prescribed have been included in the analysis.
Results indicate that there was an increase in medication prescribing(+5.7%) by dentists, with antimicrobials comprising the majority, whereas national medical antimicrobial prescribing had slightly decreased. Antibiotics accounted for 80% of all dentists’ prescriptions, with penicillins being the most commonly prescribed. In particular, amoxicillin with clavulanic acid accounted for 56.4% of all antibiotics prescribed. Such broad-spectrum antibiotics were prescribed more frequently than those of narrow-spectrum. Antibiotics were followed by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, with prescribing frequency for ibuprofen increasing by 75%.
Current trends show an increase in the overall prescription rate for all medications prescribed by dentists. The largest increase was observed for the broad-spectrum amoxicillin with clavulanic acid, and ibuprofen. As the apparent widespread use of broad-spectrum antibiotics by dentists in Croatia is in contrast to national and international recommendations for antibiotic stewardship, there is a need for further prospective investigation and possible provider education and guidelines.
