Veštačka inteligencija (VI) predstavlja savremenu tehnologiju koja omogućava računarima i mašinama da obavljaju zadatke koji su ranije zahtevali ljudsku inteligenciju, kao što su učenje, donošenje odluka i rešavanje problema. Danas se VI primenjuje u mnogim oblastima – od medicine i obrazovanja, do industrije, saobraćaja i svakodnevne komunikacije. Razvoj i implementacija veštačke inteligencije značajno utiču na društvo u celini, pa samim tim i na položaj žena. Zahvaljujući digitalnim tehnologijama i VI sistemima, ženama je omogućeno lakše uključivanje u različite profesije, naročito u oblasti informacionih tehnologija. Rad na daljinu, online obrazovanje i fleksibilni uslovi rada doprinose većoj ravnoteži između poslovnog i privatnog života.
Introduction: Acute myocarditis is an inflammatory disease of the myocardium, affecting approximately 4-14 individuals per 100.000 population. Cannabis contains tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), a psychoactive compound that has been associated with a range of adverse cardiovascular effects, including tachycardia, arrhythmias, hypoand hypertension, vasospasm, vasodilation, and an increased risk of myocardial infarction resulting from increased coronary blood flow. Case Report: A 29-year-old man presenting with palpitations and dyspnoea was admitted to the intensive care unit of the Clinic of Cardiology at the University Clinical Centre of Kragujevac. His medical history revealed daily cannabis use over the preceding three months. Cardiac evaluation documented multiple episodes of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (nsVT), while cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) confirmed the presence of myocarditis. In the absence of other identifiable causes, cannabis use was considered the most likely factor contributing to the development of myocarditis. Conclusion: Myocarditis of unknown aetiology in young adults requires a targeted diagnostic approach. Screening for psychoactive substance use should be incorporated into the standard diagnostic workup of young patients presenting with myocarditis.

Introduction/Aim: In the period 2010-2019, in the countries of the European Union, the incidence of syphilis increased by 209.8% in men and in women there was a slight increase. The increase of incidence was particularly noted in the population of men who have sex with men (MSM). The aim of this study was to determine the trend of early syphilis in Belgrade in the period 2001-2020. Methods: For the analysis of the epidemiological situation of syphilis in the area of Belgrade in the period 2001-2020, data from reports on infectious diseases, medical documentation, annual reports on the work related to the prevention, suppression and elimination of infectious diseases and the results of epidemiological and laboratory tests were used. Data on the number of inhabitants regarding gender and age for Belgrade were taken from the 2011 census, while estimates were used for the years between censuses. Based on the obtained data, raw, age-specific and incidence rates by gender were calculated for syphilis. In order to analyze the trends in incidence rates of syphilis for the period 2001-2020, as well as for the period 2011-2020, joinpoint regression analysis was used. Results: In the period 2001-2020, a total of 938 cases of syphilis were registered, while the highest incidence rate was registered in 2018 (8.1/100,000), and the lowest in 2008 (0.5/100,000). In the period 2001-2008, the incidence rate of syphilis decreased by 1.1% per year (p > 0.05), while in the period 2009-2020, there was a significant increase of 24.3% per year. In the population of men, a significant increase in the incidence rate by 20.7% per year was registered in the period 2011-2020, while in the population of women, this increase was 0.9% per year, and it was not significant. In the period 2011-2020, the highest incidence rates were in men aged 30-39 years, and in women aged 20-29 years. In all age groups, the incidence rate was higher in men than in women, while the average ratio of affected men and women was 11.9. Conclusion: Syphilis is still a common sexually transmitted infection in Belgrade, and therefore, early diagnosis and therapy are needed, especially among the members of vulnerable groups for sexually transmitted infections, in order to prevent the spread of this disease and the emergence of complications. Since it is common among women in the reproductive period, antenatal screening for this infection can be recommended to all pregnant women, and especially to those at increased epidemiological risk.
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality worldwide, and their prevention and control are essential for public health. Recent researches have highlighted the link between low levels of vitamin D and an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. This paper presents the current knowledge about the role of vitamin D supplementation as a potential strategy for cardiovascular disease prevention. Vitamin D plays a key role in the regulation of calcium and phosphate in the body, which affects the health of the heart and blood vessels. Low levels of vitamin D are associated with an increased incidence of hypertension, atherosclerosis and cardiac arrhythmias. Vitamin D supplementation can help maintain optimal levels of this vitamin in the body. Preliminary results from a series of studies suggest that vitamin D supplementation may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, especially in people with low baseline levels of the vitamin. However, further studies are needed in order to determine the optimal dosage and duration of supplementation, as well as reliably determine the effects and recommend more precise guidelines for the eventual use of vitamin D in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
