Human identification
Human identification
Many information systems involve data about people. Since the Renaissance, individuality and human identity have become central to our modern conception of mankind. Even a national inhabitant registration scheme would not solve international problems. A general-purpose scheme would be at its most effective if it were world-wide, with all people registered at birth. The scope for people to undertake illegal activities would be constrained. In principle at least, it would be very difficult for anyone to have any other than their own official identity; it would be scarcely possible to live entirely out of contact with the national government of the country in which they were resident; and similarly difficult to move between countries without being intercepted by border officials. Any high-integrity identifier represents a threat to civil liberties, because it represents the basis for a ubiquitous identification scheme, and such a scheme provides enormous power over the populace. As a result, the kinds of multi-purpose identification schemes, or inhabitant registration systems, which would appear capable of exciting the greatest degree of concern are those based on DNA-printing and implanted chips. While DNA and fingerprints are clearly the favored methods of identification, they require a priori record and verifiable baseline for comparison. When these tools cannot be used it is necessary to employ those biological factors with higher variation and lower diagnostic probability. This reference introduces a number of different specialties such as - dactiloscopy, bertillonage, photographs, identi-kit, odontograms, skeletal remains, tattoos, facial reconstruction and superimposition.

Hyperdontia of permanent teeth of children of Knjazevac
Purpose of this study was to define frequency hyperdontia of permanent teeth), localisation in jaws, number and sort of supernumerary teeth. There were analysed 1240 patients both sexes ages 7-15, from Knjazevac.38 patients have hyperdontia of one or more teeth (3,06 %). 36 persons (94,74 %) have supernumerary teeth in upper jaw and only 2 per sons (5,26 %) have supernumerary teeth in lower jaw. Number of supernumerary teeth was 1 to 2. The prevailing number of children have lack of one tooth. The most often localisation was area between upper central incisors (mesiodens)-52,63%. It will be shown a cases with: supernumerary central and lateral incisors, supernumerary upper second premolar and supernumerary lower central incisor. It will be shown also a girl with hypodontia upper lateral incisor and hyperdontia upper central incisor at the same time. .

Number of missing teeth was 1 to 16. The prevailing number of children have lack of more teeth. One girl has hypodontia of 16 teeth. Hypodontia is mostly present with lower second premolars, upper lateral incisors, upper second premolars.
Identification of young talents in sport
Identification of young talents in sport
Identification of sport talented individuals and their timely introduction into the training process of a sport that corresponds the most to their abilities is one of the most demanding procedures in the modern sport science. Wrong decisions are frequent and usually very painful. The problem of talented individuals is in the fact that they are not talented only in one area but they are, as a rule, successful in many areas. The basic dilemma is related to the decision about which sports to engage in and how much time to devote to a specialized sport. Is early engagement of children in sport useful or not? The answer is yes and no. However, early engagement in sport has become trendy in contemporary sport. Many young champions burn out too soon. Coaches and too ambitious parents often have completely unrealistic expectations about the sport results of their children. Due to oversized and extremely specialized training, on average young athletes sustain injuries relatively frequently and also lack internal motivation.
Illegal drug use
Illegal drug use
This paper aims to present several causes that generate an increasing consumption of illegal drugs in Europe and Romania, as well as some aspects of how young people perceive the medical and psychosocial effects of this expenditure. Also, the study will present a series of arguments for which illicit drug use is associated with an anthropological phenomenon. A total of 30 students from the Faculty of Medicine took part in this qualitative study, conducted between April and June 2017. The students were female and male, Romanian and other. The sampling was random, on a voluntary basis. The structured interview method was used. The increased incidence of drug use may be due to the rebellious nature and curiosity of adolescents, but also to the exponential growth of stress, people looking for the pleasure and ecstasy that drug use offers them. Most of the interviewed students said they would recognize an illegal drug quite hard, that they were tempted and had the opportunity to consume illicit drugs, but either refused or tried several times. Most have said that drug use and abuse would radically change their personal and professional lives and cause sadness in their families. Illegal drug use is considered an anthropological phenomenon because it can be perceived as a 'fashionable' thing by young people who want more independence. Illegal drug use, as an anthropological phenomenon influenced by cultural evolution and socioeconomic conditions, has no benefit for health, for family, and society.

Impacteed of permanent canines of children of Knjaževac
Purpose of this study was to define frequency impacteed canines of permanent teeth, localisation in jaws and number of impacteed teeth. There were analysed 1470 patients both sexes ages 13-18, from Knjazevac. 114 patients have impacteed of one or more teeth (7,75%). 88 persons (77,2 %) have impacteed canines in upper jaw and 12 persons (10,53 %) have impacteed teeth in lower jaw. 14 persons have impacteed canines in both jaws. Number of impacted canines was 1 to 4. The prevailing number of children have lack of one tooth. The most often localization was area in upper jaw (57,96%).
Importance of the body mass index in development of osteoporosis
Importance of the body mass index in development of osteoporosis
INTRODUCTION: Osteoporosis is characterized by reduced bone mineral density (BMD), increased fragility and proneness to fractures. Low body mass index (BMI) is one of risk factors with large influence in development of osteoporosis. AIM: to establish importance of the body mass index in development of osteoporosis. METERIAL AND METHOD: Prospective study was done in the Special Hospital for Rheumatic Diseases in Novi Sad, encompassing 1323 patients of both genders, with average age of 64 years. All patients had their mineral bone density measured at the lumbar spine and at the hip. Results of osteodensitometry findings were interpreted according to the valid definition of osteoporosis. Body height and body weight were measured in all patients, and their body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Connection between BMD and BMI was examined. All data were entered in the Bonlink database. For statistical data analysis, descriptive statistics, central tendency measures and Pearson's correlation coefficient were used. RESULTS: Females have been the majority among subjects (96%). Regarding BMI of patients, 43%were overweight, 20% obese, 35% normal weight and 2% underweight. Most patients had their T score of the hip and of the spine at the osteopenia level (66% and 61%, respectively). Correlation between observed parameters of T score and BMI is positive, showing statistical connection at the p<0,01 level. CONCLUSION: Subjects with lower body weight have lower bone mineral density, which puts low body weight among important risk factors for development of osteoporosis.
Influence of anthropometric characteristics and motor abilities of female pupils on motor efficiency
Influence of anthropometric characteristics and motor abilities of female pupils on motor efficiency
The influence of the experimental treatment on anthropological status and motor efficiency was researched on a sample of 117 forth grade primary school female pupils(age 10, +/- 6 months) from the territory of Novi Sad Municipality. Motor efficiency was established on the basis of results accomplished in solving a complex motor task-The Polygon of Versatility. The influence of anthropometric characteristics and motor abilities on the success in solving the complex motor task was established by Regression analysis. The results found in this research will be shown in charts and further textually elaborated.
Influence of body composition on strength performance in women aged 19
Influence of body composition on strength performance in women aged 19
On the sample of 74 female students of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport in Novi Sad, aged 19±6 years, body composition estimate was performed by means of Bioelectrical impedance analysis. One point in time measurements were done and the following measures of body composition were obtained: body weight, percentage of body fat and percentage of muscle tissue. Body height was measured using a standard anthropometer. Strength performance was estimate according to following motor tests of Eurofit Test Battery: long jump, pullups and torso bending. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of body composition on strength per­formance in women aged 19±6 years. Central and dispersive parameters were calcu­lated for each applied measures and test results. By means of regression analysis, the influence of predictor set variables on every single criteria variable was determined.
Influence of demographic aging on economic development of the Republic of Srpska (Bosnia and Herzegovina)
Influence of demographic aging on economic development of the Republic of Srpska (Bosnia and Herzegovina)
The research subject are demographic changes that were notably determined by changes in economic social, cultural, health and technical and technological development of Republic of Srpska. The aim of the research is to define necessary concepts for comprehension of demographic aging process and to explore demographic movements trend in the Republic of Srpska. Contribution of research is consistent of ascertaining the economic and social, consequences of demographic processes. Demographic movements in Republic of Srpska are extremely negative for a long time. Dominant processes that stand out are insufficient birth rate and demographic aging process. Long-term consequences of therse processes are already visible but in the future it might be more expressed. Like most post-transition countries, the Republic of Srpska is confronted to with low fertility rates so it needs an active population politics that will help increase of fertility rate demographic recovery and economic recovery.
Influence of family social status on certain anthropometric parameters of pupils in rural areas
Influence of family social status on certain anthropometric parameters of pupils in rural areas
During anthropometric research on 'Sveti Sava' elementary school pupils in village of Kakmuž beneath the mountain of Ozren, the authors expanded the re search scope to include the families of pupils. Using the different data sources (school registers, local community registers, different survey) we collected aboundant data: age, profession and education of parents, employment, average income, number of family members (productive and non-productive), number of siblings, order of birth, if the parents are divorced, if the family members were refugees, etc. According to the methodology ' Development Strategies of Bosnia and Herzegovina' (PRSP), all families were classified into three groups: rich, middle-class and poor. The aim was to de fine the social status and milieu in which the pupils grow up. Our interest was to prove the presence of relation ship between the family social status and the values of measured anthropometric parameters. By detailed analysis we tried to answer the question: is there a syndrome of 'wanted - rich' and 'unwanted - poor' child in rural areas? Also, the de tailed analysis can give in direct answers to some demo graphic problems of rural areas ( fertility, natality, etc.). The work was done as a team work in the field. .
Influence of magnetic field to microbes in oral environment
Influence of magnetic field to microbes in oral environment
From the very beginning of life, living organisms were exposed to the influence of geoelectric and geomagnetic fields, with established balance with this respect. Development of civilization has been distorted balance and harmony, imposing the extreme need for magnetism. Respecting positive effects of magnetic field to tissues, especially 'bactericide' effect, this investigation was conducted on the aim to assess the influence of magnetic field to oral microbes. Materials and method. This investigation was carried to in vitro. To obtain adequate samples of deposits or specimens of dental plaque, were from certain microbes which were isolated from human mouth. Microbes isolated from samples were Streptococcus parasanguis, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Rodococcus equi and Candida albicans. Turbidimetry array was applied for investigation of this kind. The method of spectrophotometry was applied, to obtain optical den­sity (OD) value and to establish indirectly a growth of intensity of sowed microbe's stains on the basis of modified OD of agar. Investigation was carried on two level of density of microbes of 1 CFU/ml as well as of 10 CFU/ml after 24h period and 48h period of incubation of microbes. Results. Positive effect of magnetic field upon dental plaque of bacteria reduction in vitro was recognized. At the baseline-initial 24 hours period of measurement of exposition to magnetic field, the count of all isolated mi­crobes has been significantly reduced, in the both of agar of increased density as well as of agar with reduced OD. Over the time, the decrement of influence of magnets versus microbes in vitro has been detected. Conclusion. Count of this influence of the magnet to microbes is of extreme importance in parodontology. This way, the positive influence of magnet to supporting tissues and quality and durability of overdenture was confirmed. .
