Assessing the Appraisal of Research Quality in Social Sciences and Humanities: A Case Study of the University of Montenegro

Abstract Background A noteworthy attempt has recently been made to extend the same or analogous evaluation criteria traditionally employed in natural and technical sciences to social sciences and humanities domains. However, this endeavor has sparked considerable reactions among researchers, leading to robust discussions and debates. Objectives This research aims to describe the...

Comparative Analysis of Redox Homeostasis Biomarkers in Patients with Psoriasis and Atopic Dermatitis

Aim: There are no studies regarding comparative analysis of serum biomarkers of oxidative stress in patients with psoriasis (PsO) and atopic dermatitis (AD). We aimed to compare the serum redox homeostasis parameters in patients with PsO vs. AD in an attempt to find the sensitive and specific oxidative stress biomarker that could best reflect the existence of one of these disease entities. Methods: Forty patients with PsO and forty patients with AD were consecutively included in this cross-sectional...

The role of stakeholders in development of agro tourism in post-transition countries

Agro tourism could have a positive impact on the mitigation of depopulation in most rural areas of post-transition countries. Arguments for promoting the development of agro tourism include changing negative demographic trends in such areas and year-round supply and demand characteristics. As the main stakeholders in agro tourism are rural and family farms, the development of this selective form of tourism has a direct positive impact on the growth of the living standards of the local population...

Female Hero-Seekers in Folk Fairy Tales From XIX Century: Feminist Stories for Reading in Education

The aim of the paper is to present several fairy tales from Giuseppe Pitrè’s collection as a potentially interesting reading material for children. Since classical fairy tales in some cases depict traditional gender roles, they can present an obstacle to children’s gender construction. Therefore, it is also important to read those stories which do not have a stereotypical gender discourse. We found such stories in Pitrè’s collection of folk fairy tales from the 19th century. In the paper we present...

Quality of Life in People with Diabetes Mellitus and Unilateral Transtibial Amputation - Aspects of Using the Berg Balance Scale

Approximately 40%-60% of all amputations are lower limb amputations (LLAs) related to diabetes mellitus (DM). The importance of quality of life (QoL) is increasingly recognized as after amputation. The objective of this cross-sectional study was to compare QoL (evaluated by Berg Balance Scale, BBS) in DM patients with unilateral transtibial amputation (TTA) using prosthesis (group A) with that of patients amputated due to other causes (group B). Overall, 32 patients completed two questionnaires:...

Construction of eco-crossing on traffic roads in areas of preserved nature

With the implementation of the project "Reconstruction and modernization of the main road M-18 Podgorica-Danilovgrad", which was financed by the EBRD, an upgrade and reconstruction of the 15 km long section was carried out. In this project, which included: widening of the road from 2 to 4 lanes, reconstruction of bridges, construction of new roundabouts and installation of water drainage systems, special attention was paid to environmental protection. As the section of the road is located within...

An analysis of longitudinal residual stresses in EN AW-5083 alloy strips as a function of cold-rolling process parameters

Abstract Various process nonhomogeneities in the cold rolling lead to an uneven distribution of deformation across the strip cross-section, resulting in the induction of residual stresses. This study investigates the longitudinal residual stresses in cold-rolled EN AW-5083 aluminum alloy strips using the finite element method (FEM) to achieve reliable predictions. The impacts of process parameters, including the reduction ratio, coefficient of contact friction, and front and back...
