Abstract Aim: The study aimed to evaluate the acute effect of ultrafiltration on the mechanical properties of the aorta using brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (PWV) before and after hemodialysis (HD). Patients and Methods: This study included 80 patients who were on a long-term HD program. The input variables were anamnestic data, body composition monitor (BCM) parameters, and echocardiography findings. The assessment of hydration status was determined by BCM, whose work is based on the principle of multifrequency bioimpedance spectroscopy. Another diagnostic procedure was the use of an arteriograph apparatus to assess PWV and Augmentation Index (AIx). All measurements were performed before and after dialysis on the middle dialysis day of the week. Results: The participants were divided into two groups based on hydration status: the experimental group consisted of 40 overhydrated participants and the control group consisted of 40 normovolemic participants. Statistically, the following BCM parameters correlated significantly positively with PWV: total body fat (r = 0.222; P < 0.05), overhydration (r = 0.290; P < 0.001), and relative overhydration (r = 0.290; P < 0.001). From echocardiography findings, only left atrial diameter correlated statistically significantly positively with PWV (r = 0.359; P < 0.001). Comparison of the mean PWV values within the experimental group before and after HD showed a statistically significant decrease from 14.32 ± 2.34 m/s to 8.72 ± 1.52 m/s (Z = 3.254; P = 0.0001). Mean PWV values within the control group did not decrease significantly from 13.39 ± 1.32 m/s to 10.39 ± 1.18 m/s (Z = 0.524; P = 0.742). If we compare the mean values of PWV between groups, then before HD treatment, there was no statistically significant difference between groups with PWV values in the experimental group of 14.32 ± 2.34 m/s and the control group of 13.39 ± 1.32 m/s (Z = 0.762; P = 0.852). According to the results of univariate regression analysis before and after HD treatment, only overhydration showed an absolute effect on PWV before and after HD. Conclusion: Overhydration showed an effect on brachial-ankle PWV before and after HD, and brachial-ankle PWV should be followed in HD patients.

Introduction: The increase in the percentage of the Cesarean sections has got an important place in determination of modern obstetrics. The evaluation of that needs actual, modern opinion for obstetrics and transformation actual obstetric science than investigating the best situation for the mother and child in the actual moment. All medical, organizational, economic and ethical capacities with support of modern diagnostic and therapeutic procedures present a reason for the access in modern obstetrics. It takes the descriptive and analytic method at work. In our country the percentage of the Caesarean section is 15% (according to WHO data), with large variations in frequency depending on the writer and the investigated time. Aim: To investigate the prevalence of Cesarean section in Bosnia and Herzegovina until 2017. Patients and Methods: In our investigation made prospective and target analysis is investigated at 2017 as a target year. Sources are: patient charts, notes and charts of new born. Group A presents number investigated patients with made Cesarean section in time at one year (2017) in General hospital „Prim.dr A.Nakaš“. Group B presents control group with identical number of deliveries with Cesarean section in 2007 in General hospital „Prim.dr A. Nakaš“ with all variables who detected in investigation group. Results: Analysis the number of deliveries finished Cesarean section in time from 2007 to 2017 in General hospital „Prim.dr Abdulah Nakaš “Sarajevo presents augmentation frequency from 15,5 % in 2007 year to 21,7 % in 2011; smaller number in 2012 to 20,3% and finally 22.9% in 2017 for all deliveries. Conclusion: Our investigation shows an important number of Cesarean section and is still working because of clearer obstetric indication but they make a vital indication for the mother and baby. It worries percent of poorly described indications, that are something important for the comfort of doctor and any patients that wants natural delivery. It worries the public because the more important short term and long-term unwanted effects; Cesarean delivery in correlation with augmentation of this operation.

Introduction: The commonest mitral regurgitation etiologies are degenerative (60%), rheumatic post-inflammatory, 12%) and functional (25%). Due to the large number of patients with acute MI, the incidence of ischaemic MR is also high. Ischaemic mitral regurgitation is a complex multifactorial disease that involves left ventricular geometry, the mitral annulus, and the valvular/subvalvular apparatus. Ischaemic mitral regurgitation is an important consequence of LV remodeling after myocardial infarction. Research Objectives: The objective of this study is to determine the role of echocardiography in detecting and assessment of mitral regurgitation mechanism, severity, impact on treatment strategy and long term outcome in patients with myocardial infarction during the follow up period of 5 years. Also one of objectives to determine if the absence or presence of ischaemic MR is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in patients with myocardial infarction. Patients and methods: The study covered 138 adult patients. All patients were subjected to echocardiography evaluation after acute myocardial infarction during the period of follow up for 5 years. The patients were examined on an ultrasound machine Philips iE 33 xMatrix, Philips HD 11 XE, and GE Vivid 7 equipped with all cardiologic probes for adults and multi-plan TEE probes. We evaluated mechanisms and severity of mitral regurgitation which includes the regurgitant volume (RV), effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA), the regurgitant fraction (RF), Jet/LA area, also we measured the of vena contracta width (VC width cm) for assessment of IMR severity, papillary muscles anatomy and displacement, LV systolic function ± dilation, LV regional wall motion abnormality WMA, LV WMI, Left ventricle LV remodeling, impact on treatment strategy and long term mortality. Results: We analyzed and follow up 138 patients with previous (>16 days) Q-wave myocardial infarction by ECG who underwent TTE and TEE echocardiography for detection and assessment of ischaemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) with baseline age (62 ± 9), ejection fraction (EF 41±12%), the regurgitant volume (RV) were 42±21 mL/beat, and effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) 20±16 mm2, the regurgitant fraction (RF) were 48±10%, Jet/LA area 47±12%. Also we measured the of vena contracta width (VC width cm) 0,4±0,6 for assessment of IMR severity. During 5 years follow up, total mortality for patients with moderate/severe IMR–grade II-IV (54.2±1.8%) were higher than for those with mild IMR–grade I (30.4±2.9%) (P<0.05), the total mortality for patients with EROA ≥20 mm2(54±1.9%) were higher than for those with EROA <20 mm2(27.2±2.7%) (P<0.05), and the total mortality for patients with RVol ≥30 mL (56.8±1.7%) were higher than for those with RVol<30ml (29.4±2.9%) (P<0.05). After assessment of IMR and during follow up period 64 patients (46%) underwent CABG alone or combined CABG with mitral valve repair or replacement. In this study, the procedure of concomitant down-sized ring annuloplasty at the time if CABG surgery has a failure rate around 24% in terms of high late recurrence rate of IMR during the follow period especially after 18–42 months. Conclusion: The presence of ischaemic MR is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Chronic IMR, an independent predictor of mortality with a reported survival of 40–60% at 5 years. Ischaemic mitral regurgitation has important prognosis implications in patients with coronary heart disease. Recognizing the mechanism of valve incompetence is an essential point for the surgical planning and for a good result of the mitral repair. It is important that echocardiographers understand the complex nature of the condition. Despite remarkable progress in reparative surgery, further investigation is still necessary to find the best approach to treat ischaemic mitral regurgitation.

In their practice every dentist is brought into a situation to treat patients with grossly impaired kidney function. Kidney diseases, whether acute or acquired, imply a number of body dysfunctions such as prolonged bleeding, high blood pressure, infection tendency etc. which, in turn, pose a threat involving serious complications in cases of dental interventions in these patients. The aim of this article is to provide a review of current dental practice in patients with kidney disease. This implies dental intervention and preparations of patients with chronic renal disease, nephritic syndrome, patients on dialysis, and patients with kidney transplants. Certainly, cooperation between the dentist and nephrologist is an imperative for the appropriate dental treatment of patients with grossly impaired renal function.
