Abstract Extracellular polysaccharide production by marine diatoms is a significant route which photosynthetically produced organic carbon enters the trophic web and may influence physical environment in sea. This study highlights capacity of atomic force microscopy (AFM) for investigating diatom extracellular polysaccharides with subnanometer resolution. Here we address ubiquitous Cylindrotheca closterium , isolated from northern Adriatic Sea, its polymeric substance (EPS) at single cell...
Background/Aim. At the beginning of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected persons (HIP) were considered to be at an increased risk more severe forms disease. Although vaccination HIP is deemed essential, data on humoral response both infection and in this population are inconsistent, particularly when comparing different vaccine types. The aim study was examine factors that could influence acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2)...
The study tried to determine whether endothelium of people with HIV is more susceptible retrograde blood flow in comparison healthy individuals. Endothelial function was assessed using flow-mediated dilation, before and after increased flow. Results showed that have worse baseline endothelial function. Retrograde deteriorated both groups, although this decline prominent
Introduction: Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a widely recognized problem, characterized by prolonged, debilitating and characteristic group of accompanying symptoms, that occurs four times more frequently in women than men.The aim the study was to determine existence oxidative stress its possible consequences female patients with CFS.Material methods: Twenty-four aged 15-45 who fulfilled diagnostic criteria for CFS no comorbidities were recruited age matched control 19 healthy women.After...
To evaluate diagnostic value of cystatin C serum levels as alternative marker renal function in pre-eclamsia (PE) and compare it with the traditional markers function, creatinine uric acid. In order to investigate possible influence inflammation on biochemical high sensitive CRP were measured (hsCRP).In this prospective study kidney investigated two groups pregnant women: one PE (n = 32) other healthy women 60). Serum well creatinin acid C-reactive protein.Serum C, significantly higher group...
Phytoplankton abundance in the northern Adriatic during summer 2008 indicated that system was highly productive, spite of low orthophosphate (PO 4 ) concentrations. Mechanisms by which phytoplankton adapted to PO deprivation stratification were studied. In upper, more productive waters, induced high alkaline phosphatase activity (APA) obtain phosphorus (P) from dissolved organic pool, and P turnover time mediated APA very short (2 min 1.5 h). High‐affinity enzymatic combined with hydrolysis...

Abstract Ongoing phytoplankton monitoring programs over the last 12 years in northern Adriatic Sea showed that diatom genus Bacteriastrum is an important component of pelagic assemblage. The main goals this study were to identify which species occur and describe their distributions. comosum B. hyalinum f. princeps rare, while delicatulum , mediterraneum frequently present, together with newly proposed jadranum described herein. This new weakly silicified mainly characterized by a large...
Abstract Introduction Decreased physical activity is a major cardiovascular risk factor that particularly pronounced in people living with HIV (PLHIV), who are more susceptible to endothelial dysfunction and accelerated atherosclerosis than the general population due multiple mechanisms. The aim of present study was analyse whether regular capable improving function measured by flow‐mediated dilatation (FMD) PLHIV. Methods We performed FMD measurement 38 PLHIV, along assessment their level...
Introduction. Causes of fever unknown origin are different. It is considered that it can be caused with over 200 different clinical entities. Aetiological causes differ according to categories age. Febricity in the elderly at most result autoimmune processes, malignancies, bacterial infections and vasculitis. Objective. The aim this study was determine common characteristics fever, laboratory, viral tests analyze applied therapy patients febrile state, affirm final diagnosis patients, as...
Background/aim: Neuroendocrine disorders are considered a possible pathogenetic mechanism in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). The aim of our study was to determine the function hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) and thyroid women reproductive age suffering from CFS. Materials methods: included 40 CFS healthy (15-45 years old). Serum levels cortisol (0800 1800 hours), ACTH, total T4, T3, TSH were measured all subjects. Fibro Fatigue Scale used for determination level. Results: Cortisol...
The advent of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) has prolonged the life expectancy HIV + individuals and decreased incidence HIV-associated dementia. However, milder forms neurocognitive impairment remain common are often associated with poor daily functioning lower medication adherence. This paper presents a research aimed at exploring cognitive status differences between subjects (N = 39) on cART group demographically comparable healthy in Serbia. significance control performance six...
Normal pregnancy is associated with oxidative stress and this even increased during preeclampsia (PE). The decrease in total antioxidant capacity the pathophysiological basis for vitamin supplementation pregnancy, but beneficial effect of approach still unclear. Levels creatinine, urea, cystatin, malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dysmutase activity (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) acidum ascorbicum were measured serums all women. Mean MDA level maternal plasma normal pregnancies was...
