- Influence of one-year training process on development of basic physical abilities
- One of the most important conditions for achieving top results in sports is certainly a professional work applied over a longer period of time. For these reasons the objective of this research is to determine the impact of one-year training process on motor abilities at basketball pioneer players. The research was conducted on a sample of 20 basketball players in club Danubius Vojvodina-Srbijagas from Novi Sad in the period from April 2009. to April 2010th and it was following the development of basic motor skills. The control group in this study is consisted of 20 students of the same age whose only form of exercise was organized school classes of physical education. Tests that were used in this research are: long jump, high jump, running 20m, running 50m, T moving test, throwing medicine ball, suicides and flexibility. The obtained data will be processed statistically and research results will be represented in tables and discussed in text.

- Influence of physical activity on the posture of school age children
- Proper posture is an indicator of good health, proper growth and development, which is why it is important to start learning about posture from the earliest age using various forms of physical activity. To establish the impact of physical activity on aspects of posture components of children of school age. The study included 120 subjects aged 10-16 years who were grouped into three groups, which was stratified equal number of boys and girls. The first group consisted of 40 children who are actively practice sports. The second group consisted of 40 children who are not actively practice sport a third group of 40 children with deformity of the spine. For research purposes, we used: test for assessing the degree of physical activity and test for the assessment of body posture. By applying multiple regression analysis, we found that there is an influence of different predictors on the dependent variables in all three categorically defined pattern. The strongest positive correlation was found in the first sample categorically defined between predictors warming up exercises in the training and position keeping the legs, and the amount of connections is β = 0.43. The strongest negative correlations were established also at first categorically defined pattern between predictors time spent at the computer and position keeping the legs, and the amount of connections is β = -0.35. It was found that there is a difference in the level of physical activity between the three categorically defined sample (F = 95.687, p = 0.01), and also the difference in posture between the three categorically defined sample (F = 10.93, p = 0.01). The results show the necessity of promotion of various forms of physical activity of children school age in order of their proper growth and development.

- Influence of reproductive behavioral norms on the demographic situation of the Republic of Srpska
- Since the origin of mankind, society is facing two major problems regarding subsistence of human population; birth and its control. Low reproductive norms could not be avoided in any modern society, and therefore the circumstances on our localities did not record positive changes in the system of increased birth, as well as in stimulation of young women in reproductive age to contribute the demographic recovery of the country, on the individual level. We are facing with the fact that the economic cost of parenting is increasing in line with the modern system of social values which in terms of depopulation can be very unfavorable for the survival of future generations. Besides economic instability, low reproductive norms are affected by incompatibility of work and parenting, lack of free time for child care, short time of maternity leave, the size of housing, unemployment and many other factors. According to Glas, children should be bought by the actual price, considering that is necessary to reduce the economic cost of parenthood. The research was based on the questionnaire, which was consisted of questions regarding the level of informing on demographic situation in the Republic of Srpska, birth control methods, the most commonly used methods, what is the current and optimal number of children they wish to have, and whether, is there a measure which could contribute to the solution of reproductive problems. The survey was conducted on the women in reproductive age, up to 40 years old.

- Interdependence of osteoporosis and orofacial system's dysfunctions
- Osteoporosis could cause the significant changes of bone structure. Severe changes should be expected in temporo-mandibular joint (TMJ) due to osteoporotic negative remodeling. The aim of this study was to determine changes and shape and form of temporo-mandibutar joint surtace of partially edentulous and completely edentulous osteoporotic patients. On the basis of decreased bone density and panoramic radiographs of patients, 73 (23 men, aged 61-75 yrs., and 50 women, aged 59-76 yrs.) were selected for this experiment. Panoramic radiographs were provided for each of the patient of the experimental group (Orthopantomograph 10-serial number 01492, Siemens, Germany). In relation to contour of bony surfaces of TMJ, as well as lines assigned, deviations of intercondylar axis and mandibula-basal lines to reference hortzontal and saggital planes, and change of surfaces of temporo-mandibutar joint were assessed. Low values of bone density, reductions of dimension of condylar surface of an one or the both of temporo-mandibul ar joint condyles as well as temporo-mandibular joint surfaces, deviation of position of intercondylar axis and negative remodeling were established. Orofacial dysfunction's can be provoked in osteoporotic subjects as a consequence of reduction of bone layer's density in jaw-bone and negative remodeling.

- Introduction of the oldest register in Subotica
- Registers are very important documents for a community. They have saved the most important biodemographic happenings: datas relating to birth, marriage and death. Their processing has two ways. Today it is very popular (it is trendy) to make the genealogical tree. On the other hand registers are examined on the level of the community - settlement on a longer time period. The oldest register in the world is from 1538. Synod of Trident (1563.) has prescribed to write the register of marriage and birth compulsory, while from 1600. the register of death, too. On the territory of Hungary registers are imperfect during the 17th century. After the Ottomans and the re settlement of the southern part of Hungary, writing of the registers continued immediately, and by a regulation from 1827. in every settlement was compulsory to write it. The oldest registers of Subotica are from 1687. They are not perfect but are unique in this territory. .

- Investigating frequency of front teeth crowding at elementary school children ages 7-14 from Niš and surroundings
- Dental crowding can be defined as a lack of space in dental arch for the proper placement of all teeth. The aim of this study was to determine prevalence of maxillary and mandibular anterior crowding at school children from Niš and surroundings. Material and methods: The study sample comprised 2027 elementary school children (1025girls, 1002 boys). We have analyzed the presence and extent of maxillary and mandibular anterior crowding (mild, moderate and severe ). Results: The percentage of maxillary anterior crowding for girls (73,55%) was greater than that for boys (65,65%). The most common was a mild crowding (37,58% girls, 42,35% boys), then moderate crowding (35,28% girls, 35,22% boys) and the lowest percentage had severe crowding (27,14% girls, 22,43% boys).The percentage of mandibular anterior crowding for girls (78,54%) was greater than that for boys (76,55%). The most common was a mild crowding (40,37% girls, 39,95% boys), then moderate crowding (33,78% girls, 36,25% boys) and the lowest percentage had severe crowding (25,84% girls, 23,85% boys). Conclusion: It is important to have knowledge about the incidence of dental crowding in school children, that we can start with treatment on time.

- Isometric potential of spinal deep muscles in Faculty of sport and physical education students diagnosed with kifotic and lordotic bad body posture
- Postural deformities as the current problem of the contemporary society are permanently researched and investigated with the unique aim to find out the most adequate way of systematic preventive actions that would prevent asymmetric development of trunk muscles that directly exerts negative influence on the correct body posture thus rendering formation of postural and body deformities. The subject of this paper was not focused to the study of locomotor apparatus of the lower grades of school population as the evident risk category but actually the target group was selected as a homogenous group and a representative sample was composed of the former active sportsmen and now full time students of the fourth year of studies in the Faculty of Sport and Physical Education in Nis. We have tried to define the correlation of isometric potential of the deep spinal muscles with the changes in statics and dynamics of the spinal column as seen in sagital area (kifotic and lordotic bad body posture). Having in mind that it is a well known fact that muscle groups on the convex side of the spinal column are week and stretched and assuming that these muscles are in surface layers we wanted to find out the status of deep muscles of spinal column and their correlations with the deviations of the spinal column in sagital area. .

- Lean body mass assessment by Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and the method of Hume
- Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) as a gold standard of body composition assessment enables development and calibration of the anthropometric equations in estimation of the body composition, as well as the lean body mass (LBM). Lean body mass can be calculated from height and weight using the method of Hume. The aim of this study was to discover the accuracy of the Hume's equation in determining LBM. DXA was performed in 88 women with mean BMI (28.22±5.12 kg/m2), divided in 4 groups according to their BMI: 1st gr.<25 kg/m2; 2nd gr. 25-29,9 kg/m2; 3rd gr. 30-34,9 kg/m2; and 4th gr. 35-40 kg/m2. Hume's equation calculated LBM (kg), LBM = ª0.29569 x (body weight in kg)º + ª(0.41813 x (height in cm)º - 43.2933, and it was compared to the LBM values determined by DXA. Mean lean body mass determined by the method of Hume was 49.42±3.68 kg, and it was significantly higher compared to the mean lean body mass (40.59±4.5 kg) determined by DXA (p<0.0001). The lean body mass values determined by the method of Hume in the 1st group (41.81±4.1 kg), in the 2nd group (43.53±3.69 kg), in the 3rd group (46.74±3.69 kg) and in the 4th group (46.74±4.26 kg) were significantly higher compared to the correspondent LBM values determined by DXA (37.96±4.06 kg) in the 1st group (p<0.001), (39.25±2.95 kg) in the 2nd group (p<0.0001), (43.1±3.93 kg) in the 3rd group (p<0.005) and (46.11±3.07 kg) in the 4th group (p<0.042). BMI increase was associated with significant LBM increase in the 3rd and 4th group compared to the 1st gr. Hume's equation overestimated lean body mass compared to DXA, and it couldn't be used for lean body mass assessment in clinical practice.

- Longitudinal skeleton dimension of young footballers
- The success in a football match depends on many psichosomatic dimensions of a personality status of a sportsman. Some of the dimensions are: morphological characteristics, functional, motor and cognitive abilities, conative characteristics, motivation, sociological characteristics and the like. Knowledge of the structure of some anthropological abilities and characteristics of sportsmen as well as their development represents the basic condition for successful management of the process of a sports training. The aim of the research is to determine longitudinal skeleton dimension of young footballers. The sample of examinees consists of 120 footballers of different age categories from 'Vojvodina' football club, namely: junior pioneers (aged 11-12) - 30 examinees, senior pioneers (aged 13-14) - 30 examinees, cadets (aged 15-16) - 30 examinees and youth (aged 17-18) - 30 examinees. For longitudinal skeleton dimension assessment of young footballers body height and leg length were measured. The testing of significant differences between footballers of different age categories as well as deviation from expected values were calculated by 't-test' and univariate variance analysis (ANOVA). On the basis of the results got it can be concluded that average results show a general tendency of increase of results of longitudinal skeleton dimension from younger to older age categories. Variable measures show that youth examinees are the most homogenous in longitudinal skeleton dimensions while senior pioneers are the most heterogenous. In comparison to earlier investigation of adequate age categories it was observed an increase in the values of the longitudinal dimension. The obtained differences are probably caused by both acceleration and better selection, i.e. the need for higher players in modern football. .

- MNS system blood groups in population of Vojvodina
- MNS system blood groups examined on blood donors. The tests were made on the sample of 1200 donors for M, N, S and s alels. The analyses were made through standard procedures and the data were statistically processed. Results pointed that in population of Vojvodina s alel is the most frequent alel, most frequent genotype is ss, MN and Ss, the most frequent phenotypes are MNss, MNSs and NNss. Frequences of alels, genoypes and phenotypes in Vojvodina are rather similar to coresponding values in other Serbia, Balcan and European populations. The study has confirmed that the population of Vojvodina is specific and it represents a contribut ion to the analysis of the genetic variability of population in Vojvodina. .

- Mass and volume of a body of young footballers
- Knowledge of the structure of some anthropological abilities and characteristics of sportsmen as well as their development represent the basic condition for successful management of the process of sports training. The aim of this research is to determine mass and volume of a body of young footballers. The sample of examinees consists of 120 footballers of different age categories from 'Vojvodina' football club, namely: junior pioneers (aged 11-12) - 30 examinees, senior pioneers (aged 13-14) - 30 examinees, cadets (aged 15-16) - 30 examinees and youth (aged 17-18) - 30 examinees. For transversal skeleton dimension, young footballers were measured for shoulder width and pelvic width. For the assessment of mass and volume of a body are measured body mass, the volume of upper leg, the volume of lower leg, the volume of chest, the volume of stomach, skin fold of tomach and skin fold of upper arm. The testing of significant differences between footballers of different age categories as well as deviation from expected values were calculated by 't-test' and univariate variance analysis (ANOVA). On the basis of the results obtained, it can be concluded that average results show a general tendency of increase of results of weight and volume of the body from younger to older age categories. Variable measures show that youth examinees are the most homogenous while senior pioneers are the most heterogenous.
