Aim Falling represents a major public health problem among older persons because it leads to premature mortality, loss of independence, and placement in assisted‐living facilities. The purpose this study was assess the main features risks for falls than 65 years age as well quantify their fear falling. Methods A total 354 were recruited at community centre. Characteristics most recent fall obtained through detailed interviews with participants. Falls Efficacy Scale used Results Frequency...
Self-medication among future health care professionals can represent a serious threat to professionalism in medicine and it has potential put at risk public trust into this profession. The aim of research was investigate prevalence factors for self-medication population medical students, because previously shown that their attitudes towards pharmacotherapy could affect the way they prescribe medication future.Research performed as cross-sectional study included 1296 (84.1%) 1st, 3rd 6th year...
Objective Sexual dysfunction (SD) is a common but often overlooked symptom in multiple sclerosis (MS). The aim of this study was to estimate the frequency, type, and intensity SD our patients with MS investigate its influence on all domains quality life. Methods population comprised cohort 109 (McDonald's criteria, 2001). quantified by Szasz sexual functioning scale. Health-related life measured disease-specific instrument MSQoL-54 (Serbian version). Results presence at least one found about...
Background: Obesity may be a risk factor for developing multiple sclerosis (MS). Objective: We examined if body size influences the of MS in population-based, case control study. Methods: A total 953 cases and 1717 controls from Norway 707 1333 Italy reported their by choosing silhouette 1 to 9 (largest) every fifth year age 5 30 at time The size-related was defined odds ratios (ORs) logistic regression analyses adjusting age, smoking outdoor activity. Results: In large (silhouettes 6–9)...
Objectives: The objective of this paper is to estimate the association between multiple sclerosis (MS) and measures sun exposure in specific age periods Norway Italy. Methods: A total 1660 MS patients 3050 controls from Italy who participated a multinational case-control study (EnvIMS) reported habits during childhood adolescence. Results: significant infrequent summer outdoor activity increased risk was found strongest ages 16 18 years (odds ratio (OR) 1.83, 95% confidence interval (CI)...
The aim of this study was to assess the association between cigarette smoking and health-related quality life (HRQoL) among students in two different universities, potential mediating effect depression. Participants were who came for mandatory check-ups at Student Health Care Centers Universities Serbia, differing by socio-politically economically environments. Students completed socio-demographic questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) SF-36 questionnaire assessment HRQoL. In both...
Internet is important resource of health-related information and health services. Factors associated with higher level online (eHealth) literacy among adolescence have been understudied. The aim this study was to assess psychometric properties the eHealth Literacy Scale (eHEALS) in Serbian language evaluate adolescents Serbia. carried out four high schools Belgrade, Serbia period December 2016 January 2017. A total 702 students comprised sample. eHEALS translated according internationally...
The aim of this case-control study was to assess the risk developing multiple sclerosis (MS) associated with certain lifestyle factors (cigarette smoking and coffee alcohol consumption). groups consisted 210 cases clinically proven and/or laboratory-confirmed MS (Poser's criteria) an identical number sex- age-matched hospital controls. In patients, cigarette significantly more frequent than in controls (OR = 1.6, p 0.021). A dose-response relationship between both duration (years) (p 0.027)...
We present a prospective study of 240 patients with medication overuse headache (MOH) treated drug withdrawal and prophylactic medications. At 1-year follow-up, 137 (57.1%) were without chronic overuse, eight (3.3%) did not improve after 95 (39.6%) relapsed developing recurrent overuse. Age at time MOH diagnosis, regular use benzodiazepines, frequency Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS) score headache, age onset primary MIDAS ergotamine compound daily intake significantly different...
Increased oxidative stress is a hallmark of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Glutathione S-transferases (GST) are involved in the detoxification xenobiotics and protection damage. We hypothesized that genetic polymorphism antioxidant enzymes GSTA1, GSTM1, GSTP1 GSTT1 more frequent ESRD modulates degree these patients.GSTA1, genotypes were determined 199 patients age- gender-matched controls. Markers protein lipid damage [thiol groups, carbonyl advanced products, nitrotyrosine, malondialdehyde...
The genetic etiology and the contribution of rare variation in multiple sclerosis (MS) has not yet been elucidated. Although familial forms MS have described, no convincing penetrant variants reported to date. We aimed characterize sporadic identified a family with two sibs affected by concomitant malignant melanoma (MM). performed whole exome sequencing this primary 38 multiplex families 44 cases transcriptional immunologic assessment variants. potentially causative homozygous missense...
Examination of prevalence, intensity and associations pain in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS).Multicenter, international cross-sectional survey.Patients were recruited from seven MS centers: Serbia (Clinic Neurology, Clinical Center Serbia, Belgrade; Clinic Military Medical Academy, Kragujevac; Nis; Department General Hospital-Uzice), Republic Srpska-Bosnia Herzegovina Banja Luka) Croatia (University Sestre Milosrdnice University Hospital Center, Zagreb).Six hundred fifty consecutive...
Specific proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory molecules could represent useful cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers to predict the clinical course of multiple sclerosis (MS). The molecule interleukin (IL)-6 has been investigated in pathophysiology MS associated previous smaller studies increased disability disease activity. Here, we wanted further address IL-6 as a possible CSF biomarker by investigating its detectability large cohort 534 patients 103 individuals with other non-inflammatory...
