Abstract Possible sustainable resources of beneficial compounds for various applications are agricultural crop and food production residues (ACFPR), which supported by considerable efforts to characterize their compositions biological activities. This knowledge can be utilized the rational selection residue extracts components possible use in development value‐added products, such as anti‐ageing cosmetics. The appearance wrinkles, pigmentation, a reduction skin elasticity typical signs...

Resveratrol is a well-studied plant-derived molecule in cancer biology, with plethora of documented vitro effects. However, its low bioavailability and toxicity risk hamper wider use. In this study, vine shoots after pruning were used as source resveratrol (RSV). The activity subcritical water extract (SWE) dry (DE) examined on three cell lines: HeLa, MCF-7 MRC-5. cytotoxic effect assessed by the MTT test EB/AO staining, levels apoptosis are determined Annexin V assay, autophagia ULK-1...

Geranium species are widely used in traditional medicine of Balkan. The aim this work was to investigate and compare chemical composition volatile fractions obtained by hydrodistillation from aerial parts G. macrorrhizum, phaeum, sanguineum, robertianum, palustre, pyrenaicum, columbinum lucidum as well underground macrorrhizum originated Vlasina plateau South Eastern Serbia. volatiles were analyzed using GC/MS GC-FID. palustre have been studied for the first time with β-selinene (18.6 %) a...

Experimental evaluation of QoS mechanism defined in IEEE 802.11e standard is presented this paper. Measurements were carried out controlled laboratory conditions, with and without configured QoS. Mean maximum delay, jitter packet loss are measured voice communications between two clients, competing other clients. The results show that brings significant improvements the transmission voice, which especially case highly loaded network.

Abstract Objective This study evaluated the association between RC and Non-HDL-C with subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in patients metabolic syndrome (MetSy) without cardiovascular disease. Method The included 130 participants, manifested were divided into 2 groups. first group consisted of subjects MetSy, n=65 (mean age: 53,92±8,36), second is control, n=65. For all was determined: presence risk factors for disease (hypertension, hyperlipidemia, smoking, diabetes, obesity), laboratory...

Abstract The updated SCORE algorithm (SCORE2) estimates an individual’s 10-year risk of fatal and non-fatal CVD events (myocardial infarction, stroke) in apparently healthy people aged 40-69 years with factors that are untreated or have been stable for several years. Aim study This evaluated the association between 2 markers subclinical atherosclerosis target organ damage asymptomatic patients metabolic syndrome (MetSy). Method included 131 participants, without manifested cardiovascular...

More than 100,000 tractors in the Republic of Serbia are use without any protective structures for drivers event tractor overturn. The number victims due to overturns is increasing. implementation regulation on obligation built-in cabins or frames tractors, which has been postponed several times, should be put into effect 2025. Since 2019, Road Traffic Safety Agency actively conducting research aimed at universal solution construction frame, as well finding ways overcome absence driver...

Physical therapy is constantly evolving and adapting to new information technologies in order provide optimal care patients with various musculoskeletal conditions. In this context, recent advances technology methods has led the introduction of techniques, among which ultrasound guided percutaneous electrolysis stands out. This technique, combines principle electrotherapy (constant direct current) needle application, becoming increasingly significant rehabilitation tendinopathies, myofascial...

Plants and plant extracts are of great scientific interest due to the chemical diversity pharmacological properties present bioactive molecules. The Geranium L. species widely used in ethnomedicine. In current study, total phenolic tannin content, antioxidant antimicrobial activity methanol eight were investigated.The content determined by FC method. Antioxidant capacity was evaluated FRAP, DPPH, biochemical assays, while examined using broth microdilution method.The high (170.64-636.32 mg...

Background: Various humoral systems have been proposed to play a role in postmenopausal hypertension and increased risk of coronary artery disease, such as changes estrogen/androgen ratios, endothelium dysfunction, activation the renin-angiotensin system. It has demonstrated that some interventions, known reduce CV also, improve endothelial function. Aim: To examine reaction endothelium, assess through circulating blood markers function: stable end products nitric oxide (NOx) S –...

The aim of the study was to assess impact hypertension on regional myocardial systolic and diastolic function in non-insulin dependent diabetic (NIDDM) patients (pts) using pulsed wave Doppler imaging (PW-DMI). Study population consisted 30 normotensive pts with NIDDM (NNIDDM group), 27 hypertensive (HNIDDM group) 20 normal controls (C group). In order evaluate PW-DMI (Acuson-Sequoia) examination left ventricular (LV) interventricular septum (IVS) LV posterior wall (PW) short axis view we...
