Stomatološki fakultet Sveučilišta u Zagrebu jedan je od rijetkih stomatoloških fakulteta na svijetu s vlastitim Zavodom za dentalnu antropologiju. Utemeljen je 1966. godine, a prvi predstojnik bio je doc. dr. sc. Mustafa Ćatović. Kako bi se na primjeren način obilježila 50. godišnjica osnutka zavoda, od 9. do 11. lipnja 2016. na Stomatološkom fakultetu Sveučilišta u Zagrebu održan je Znanstveni...

Vekovima čovekova prirodna radoznalost za ljudsko telo dovodila je do stvaranja raznih instrumenata od kojih su mnogi slični današnjoj dijagnostičkoj opremi. Prvi veliki napredak u endoskopiji učinjen je u 19. veku. Filip Bocini (Phillip Bozzini, 1773–1809) opisao je 1806. godine instrument koji vizuelizuje unutrašnjost mokraćne bešike i nazvao ga lichtleiter . Okrugli otvor lichtleitera bio je...

Japanese Encephalitis (JE) is a vector-borne disease of major importance in Asia. Recent increases in cases have spawned the development of more stringent JE surveillance. Due to the difficulty of making a clinical diagnosis, increased tracking of common symptoms associated with JE-generally classified as the umbrella term, acute encephalitis syndrome (AES) has been developed in many countries....

Japanese encephalitis (JE) is a mosquito borne zoonotic disease caused by JE virus (JEV). JE has been endemic in Terai region, the lowland plains of Nepal bordering India, since 1978. However, in recent years cases of JE has been continuously reported from high altitude zones of hills and mountains. Irrigated rice farming system, expanded pig husbandry practices, inadequate vaccine coverage, lo...

Japanese encephalitis (JE) is an endemic disease in Taiwan. After the program to vaccinate children against JE was implemented in 1968, the incidence of JE gradually started to decrease, but it is still an important infectious disease here. Neurological manifestations in JE vary highly during the initial stage of the disease. Focal neurological symptoms, such as hemiplegia, are rarely reported....

BACKGROUND This study aims to observe the morphological characteristics and identify the function characteristics of junctional epithelium (JE) tissues and cultured JE cells. METHODS Paraffin sections of human molar or premolar on the gingival buccolingual side were prepared from 6 subjects. HE staining and image analysis were performed to measure and compare the morphological difference amon...

The persistent transmission of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) in Taiwan necessitates exploring the risk factors of occurrence of Japanese encephalitis (JE). The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between meteorological factors and the incidence of JE in Taiwan. We collected data for cases of JE reported to the Taiwan Centers for Disease Control (Taiwan CDC) from 2000 to 201...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE An increased incidence of intestinal helminthic infections has been observed in patients with viral encephalitis in endemic areas. Both Japanese B encephalitis (JE) and neurocysticercosis (NCC) share some common socio-demographic and ecologic factors, and pigs act as the intermediate carrier for both. Our purpose was to show the coexistence of JE and NCC in brain on MR im...
