Vakcinacija dece protiv kovida

Author(s): Jeffrey S. Gerber,Paul A. Offit / Language(s): Serbian

Početkom meseca, američki Centar za kontrolu i prevenciju bolesti (CDC) preporučio je Fajzerovu iRNK vakcinu protiv kovida-19 za decu od 5 do 11 godina – što je oko 28 miliona dece u SAD. Ankete, međutim, govore da je 42-66% roditelja nevoljno ili se protivi takvoj zaštiti. Bez vakcinacije, verovatno će u nekom trenutku u svom životu gotovo svi – uključujući i malu decu – dobiti težak akutni respiratorni sindrom korona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Pitanje za roditelje i staratelje glasi: šta je gore, vakcinacija ili prirodna infekcija?

Nekontrolisano širenje

Author(s): Miloš Marković,Emina Milošević,Svetlana Lukić / Language(s): Serbian

Uvedenim merama država je omogućila nesmetano širenje virusa tako da više nije pitanje da li ćemo se razboleti, nego kada i sa kojim stepenom odbrane. Da li nam je neophodna i koja treća doza vakcine? Da li i kojom vakcinom treba da budu vakcinisani deca, trudnice, hronični bolesnici? Govore imunolozi sa Instituta za Mikrobiologiju i imunologiju prof. dr Miloš Marković i dc. dr Emina Milošević. Razgovor vodi Svetlana Lukić.

…I cjepivu

Author(s): Zoran Pusić / Language(s): Croatian

Cijepljenje je zasnovano na ideji „upoznavanja“ imunološkog sustava s određenim virusom (ili bakterijom), a da pritom ne dođe do bolesti. To se često postiže cjepivom u kojem su umrtvljeni virusi (ili bakterije), odnosno proteini karakteristični za taj virus.

O virusu i cjepivu

Author(s): Zoran Pusić / Language(s): Croatian

Slika virusa koji izaziva bolest Covid-19 pojavljuje se već mjesecima kao pozadina udarnih i sve više zabrinjavajućih vijesti o dnevnom broju novozaraženih i umrlih od te bolesti. Službeni naziv tog „korona virusa“ je SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrom Coronavirus 2); uveo ga je Međunarodni odbor za taksonomiju virusa (ICTV) u veljači ove godine. Isti dan, 11. veljače 2020., Svjetska zdravstvena organizacija (WHO), uvela je naziv za bolest koju taj virus uzrokuje, Covid-19. SARS-CoV-2 spada u rasprostranjenu porodicu virusa koji izgledom podsjećaju na morskog ježa i napadaju stanice respiratornog sustava. Na primjer virus gripe je iz te porodice virusa. Kad su virolozi 1960-ih godina prvi put slikali tu vrstu virusa pomoću elektronskog mikroskopa, svojim oblikom podsjetio ih je na krunu – odatle i naziv „korona“.

A Philosophical Perspective on the Social Construction of Disability

Author(s): Mustafa Polat / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The notion of disability, just like the notions such as gender and race, directly involves the ontological classification of human-related kinds through some observed or imagined characteristics which constitute the defining rationale behind the relevant classification. Accordingly, the locus of philosophical debates on the disability classification rests on this underlying rationale which enables us to mark someone as disabled. Hereby, the underlying question is whether this particular classification hinges on some biological characteristics or is socially constructed under the socio-hierarchical relations built into the very fabric of society.

Mental health plays a critical role in the pregnancy process of women. Pregnancy is a period of great change in a woman's body as her baby develops. During this period, women often experience anxiety symptoms. Although the literature has suggested that socioeconomic status (SES) may contribute to the severity of pregnant women experiencing anxiety and depression, it has shown that women with low socioeconomic status may be more likely to experience symptoms of anxiety and depression during pregnancy. Specifically, it has been hypothesized that low ses will be associated with an increased experience of anxiety and depressive symptoms.woman's health before, during and after pregnancy. The results of this study shows that low socioeconomic status may increase the risk of anxiety and depression in pregnant women; therefore, practitioners should consider the socioeconomic status of patients assessing the risk of anxiety and depression during their pregnancy.

Menstrualno siromaštvo: refleksije globalnog siromaštva u lokalnom kontekstu Bosne i Hercegovine

Author(s): Omer Muminović,Zilka Spahić Šiljak / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

Menstrualno siromaštvo u Bosni i Hercegovini (BiH) se uopće ne istražuje i ne postoje podaci o tome koliko žena ne može kupiti najnužnije menstrualne potrepštine. Ključni argument rada je da poreske politike u BiH nisu rodno odgovorne u smislu smanjenja ili ukidanja poreza na higijenske menstrualne potrepštine i da to dodatno utječe na siromaštvo žena te da je menstruacija još uvijek tabu. Rad se teorijski temelji na konceptima društvene stigme i feminizacije siromaštva koji su usko povezani s menstrualnim siromaštvom i rodnom neravnopravnošću. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da je menstruacija još uvijek tabuizirana tema, da žene osjećaju sram javno govoriti o tome, da koriste eufemizme i da ne postoji sistemsko rješenje podrške kako bi se olakšalo ženama, a posebno onima koje žive na granici ili ispod granice siromaštva. Pretpostavljalo se da će globalizacija donijeti ekonomski napredak i unaprijediti položaj žena, što se u određenoj mjeri i dogodilo, međutim, negativni efekti globalizacije su najviše pogodili žene koje i dalje rade u manje plaćenim zanimanjima, manje zarađuju i u svojim rukama imaju vrlo malo ekonomskih resursa u odnosu na muškarce. Uz sve to žene moraju plaćati higijenske menstrualne potrepštine, što ih dodatno ekonomski opterećuje, a zbog menstruacije su izložene i društvenoj stigmi.

CROATIAN POPULATION AND SOCIETY IN THE 19TH CENTURY

Author(s): Arijana Kolak Bošnjak,Robert Skenderović / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

After the collapse of Napoleon’s rule and the Congress of Vienna, at which a new map of Europe was drawn, the Croatian lands found themselves within the Habsburg Monarchy, but not united: Croatia and Slavonia (Banal Croatia or civil Croatia and Slavonia) were part of the Kingdom of Hungary, while Istria and Dalmatia were an inte-gral part of the Austrian lands. The Croatian-Slavonian Military Frontier was under the direct military administration of Vienna and was finally integrated with Croatia and Slavonia only in 1881. Until the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy in 1918, the Croatian lands remained divided between the Austrian and Hungarian parts of the Monarchy.

HOW DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGES IN THE WORLD AFFECT THE ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE OF COUNTRIES

Author(s): Vladimir Ristanović / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The discrepancy between the world’s economic and demographic performance dates back decades. The mismatch between population and economic growth has developed through globalization. The oldest theoretical directions and doctrines sought a rational explanation, but the problem became more and more complex over time. The basic premise of the paper is that demographic structure affects GDP. Furthermore, this impact varies from country to country and over several related years. A comparative analysis of selected countries/regions will show what the relationships are between economic and demographic performance. Measuring and evaluating this as accurately as possible is important to draw the right conclusions and adequate messages. Various demographic indicators were compared under different conditions and by structure. At the same time, their relationships with economic parameters were analyzed through their linear regression relationship using econometric analysis. The conclusions of the paper may be useful for creating socioeconomic policies in the future.

SENIOR ENTREPRENEURS – LITERATURE OVERVIEW AND EXAMPLES

Author(s): Aleksandar Erceg,Rita-Krin Boduljak / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The world population is getting older, and many retiring people face the dilemma of what to do now that they are still in good health and can still do something for themselves and society. Many retired people are considering starting ventures as senior entrepreneurs because of their skills, knowledge, and personal networks. At the same time, however, they face various disadvantages. Senior entrepreneurship is seen to extend the working lives of older people and provide additional financial resources in retirement. The topic of senior entrepreneurship is gaining research interest in academic society, and we find that there are more and more studies on senior entrepreneurs and senior entrepreneurship. The results show a variety of definitions and terms, problems in operationalizing the silver entrepreneur concept, and a lack of data on the age of entrepreneurial groups. The available data shows that senior-age entrepreneurship is increasing worldwide, but the number varies from country to country. Based on the literature review on senior entrepreneurs and senior entrepreneurship, several additional questions emerged that could (need to) be explored concerning Croatia and globally.

UNDERSTANDING OLDER CONSUMERS: IMPLICATIONS FOR RETAILERS IN CROATIA

Author(s): Ljerka Sedlan Kőnig / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Researching the shopping behavior of older consumers (65 years and older) is important because this population segment is expected to grow in the coming years. Understanding their preferences and challenges will help businesses adapt and meet the needs of this important consumer group. Older consumers may have different needs and preferences than younger consumers, such as a preference for brick-and-mortar stores over online shopping and a desire for knowledgeable and helpful sales staff. They may also have issues such as limited mobility and difficulty with technology. By understanding these preferences and challenges, companies can improve the shopping experience for older consumers, increasing their loyalty and boosting sales. In addition, addressing older consumers’ needs can positively impact the community and society as a whole. Specific information about research on the shopping behavior of older consumers in Croatia is scarce. However, reviewing previous studies and articles on the shopping behavior of older consumers in other countries and regions may provide relevant information that could be applied to the Croatian context.

THE INFLUENCE OF MACROECONOMIC INDICATORS ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF SENIOR ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Author(s): Mihaela Mikić,Tin Horvatinović,Ivana Kovač / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Senior entrepreneurship, either as a partial employment option used to make additional income for a pension or as a full career option, is a tool for improving senior citizens’ economic position, quality of life, and self-actualization. The goal of this chapter is to identify macroeconomic indicators that can influence the development of senior entrepreneurship. The macroeconomic indicators investigated include GDP, unemployment, inflation, average salary, retirement age, and poverty risk. Research results showed two significant variables that influence the development of senior entrepreneurship: GDP and inflation. GDP was found to have a positive relationship, while inflation had a negative one. The limitations of this research include a lack of data, which limited research to only 11 countries in the European Union instead of all of them. Moreover, because the theory basis is very limited, it is hard to identify variables of interest. It is possible that because of this, none of the social security system variables showed as significant. Recommendations for future research would include further investigation of the influence of the economic environment on senior entrepreneurship to create a base for quality policy measures for its development and to broaden the investigation to include other types of environments. Furthermore, the motivation for starting a business in senior years should be investigated more, including economic and social perspectives.

ENHANCING THE EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCE FOR AGING INDIVIDUALS: AN ANALYSIS OF THE UNIVERSITY FOR THE THIRD AGE

Author(s): Alka Obadić,Zoran Ježić / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Demographic change presents a challenge for all developed countries, especially EU countries, with significant aging populations. Therefore, active aging is key. Older people must be included in society, and their participation must be considered a priority without any stigmatization and discrimination they are often exposed to. Older people need to remain active in their daily lives in their community (e.g., education and training facilities that enable active aging at work, health and care services that support healthy aging and independent living, etc.). Consequently, meaningful educational opportunities for older individuals should be a top priority. This paper addresses the critical area of lifelong learning for an aging population, focusing on the university for the third age as a distinctive and innovative model. The authors undertake a comprehensive theoretical analysis of the literature published to date on education for older people to examine the impact and effectiveness of educational programs that address the educational needs of older adults. In the applied part of the paper, the authors analyze the programs and activities of the University for the Third Age of the University of Rijeka.

Poslední židé v soudním okrese Planá

Author(s): Markéta Novotná / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

The Jewish community in the judicial district of Planá experienced significant changes from the late 19th century to the 1930s. By 1930, only a fraction of the original Jewish population remained, with many having moved to larger cities or emigrated abroad. The community faced severe persecution during the Holocaust, with most members being deported to ghettos and concentration camps, where they perished. The confiscation of Jewish property and its subsequent redistribution post-war further impacted the community. Detailed records from the 1930 census provide insights into the lives of the remaining Jewish families, their occupations, and their contributions to local society. Despite the tragic losses, the historical documentation preserved in various archives offers a poignant glimpse into the resilience and legacy of the Jewish community in Planá. The study emphasizes the importance of these records in understanding the broader socio-economic and cultural history of the region.

Epilog Židů v Tachově. Demografická sonda o stavu židovské komunity v Tachově III

Author(s): Jan Edl / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

The Jewish community in Tachov faced significant challenges during the late 1930s, culminating in their tragic displacement and persecution. Initially, the community experienced relative peace, but the rise of German nationalism and the events of 1938, including the Sudetenland crisis, led to increasing hostility and violence. Many Jewish residents fled Tachov, seeking refuge in larger cities or abroad. The community's properties were seized, and the synagogue was destroyed during Kristallnacht. Despite these hardships, some members managed to survive the Holocaust, either through emigration or by enduring the horrors of concentration camps. The study highlights the resilience and tragic fate of Tachov's Jewish community, emphasizing the importance of preserving their history. The demographic analysis provides insights into the community's composition, migration patterns, and the impact of Nazi policies. The document underscores the need for further research to fully understand the experiences of Jewish communities in the region during this period.

Židovská čtvrť v Údlicích z pohledu daňové evidence

Author(s): Michaela Balášová / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

The Jewish quarter in Údlice, located in northwestern Bohemia, was a significant settlement from the 15th century, with Jewish inhabitants possibly arriving as early as the late 15th century. By the mid-18th century, the quarter had its own synagogue, school, and hospital, and housed around 15 buildings. The Jewish population peaked in the early 19th century, with over 600 residents. However, a fire in 1815 destroyed most of the quarter, sparing only the synagogue. Despite rebuilding efforts, the Jewish population began to decline in the latter half of the 19th century, and by the early 20th century, the community had significantly diminished. The quarter was eventually integrated into the broader town structure, and many of its buildings were demolished or repurposed.
