Aim: The aim of the present study was to assess clinically the bleeding risk in a typical tooth extraction in patients on monotherapy with one of the new oral anticoagulants rivaroxaban (Xarelto), apixaban (Eliquis), and dabigatran (Pradaxa). Materials and methods: The study included 30 patients on these anticoagulants who underwent a typical tooth extraction. Local hemostasis was achieved using Surgicel, Haemocollagen or Gelaspon, and suturing the edges of the wound. Clinical evaluation of the bleeding was performed at 10 and 30 minutes, and 24 hours after the extraction. Anticoagulants were discontinued for the day of extraction. Results: Post-extraction bleeding in the first 10 minutes was observed in 17 patients (56.66%). Bleeding within 30 minutes was observed in 11 patients (36.66%). Two (6.66%) patients reported having only mild oozing within 24 hours. No additional haemostasis was required for any of the patients. Bleeding in a typical tooth extraction is of capillary origin. Bleeding sites are easily accessible and local hemostatic agents are effective enough to control the bleeding. Discontinuation of the anticoagulant on the day of extraction is sufficient to prevent any adverse events. No abnormal post-extraction bleeding was observed in our study. Conclusions: If tooth extraction is required in patients taking the new oral anticoagulants rivaroxaban (Xarelto), apixaban (Eliquis) or dabigatran (Pradaxa), the patient can cease the reception of the drug only for the day of the procedure.","PeriodicalId":30048,"journal":{"name":"Trakia Journal of Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67462224","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

METHODS: six NaCl salt concentrations were studied (low concentrations: 25 mM and 50 mM NaCl solutions, medium concentrations: 75 mM and 100 mM NaCl solutions and high concentrations: 125 mM and 150 mM NaCl solutions). Germination data and seedling parameters were recorded. RESULTS: The application of salt concentrations between 25 and 150 had no significant effect on seed germination, while suppressive effect on seedling characteristics. At 150 mM NaCl mean germination time ranged from 2.10 days (for Osmanchik 97) to 3.15 days (for Kameo), mean ShL ranged from 3.65 cm for Kameo to 5.33 cm for Osmanchik 97. With increasing concentrations of NaCl vigor index decreased from 2043 for Osmanchik 97 (control) to 1050.24 for the variety Kameo. CONCLUSION: At 150 mM NaCl concentrations, the studied varieties showed very high salt tolerance to seed germination, high salt tolerance to root growth and medium salt tolerance to shoot growth. Тhe study confirmed that rice cultivars at the stage of seed germination are more tolerant to salinity than at the early seedling stage.","PeriodicalId":30048,"journal":{"name":"Trakia Journal of Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67464212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aim: The purpose of this report is to validate STHB from an embryological point of view. Results: The embryonic period provides clear evidence for the spiral theory of the human body, demonstrating the center, its boundary, the equal importance of negative and positive structures, the primordial scale and the transition to different sub-scales, its short duration, and the clear transition to the next period of life. Conclusion: Most axioms of the STHB could be validated by human embryo development.

This study will focus on the dynamic changes in the territorial and sectoral structure of employment, as those sectors that have the potential for development have been determined through defined criteria. The localization coefficient is used to determine the industries with a high degree of concentration and the effect of national and regional trends on the industry structure is established through a “shift-share” analysis of employment. As a result of the analysis, the need to increase the efficiency of the industries, for which the region has comparative advantages, is highlighted, as this is a prerequisite for increasing its competitiveness. The impact on the industries identified in the development in the direction of stimulation would have a favorable effect on the growth of the economy in the region, respectively on the economy of the country as a whole.","PeriodicalId":30048,"journal":{"name":"Trakia Journal of Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67463849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Agro-towns and rural districts in Italy, despite their peculiarities, represent an element of continuity in the path of social and economic development of the Italian countryside, contrasting the risk of marginalisation in rural areas through a propulsive growth of social capital and human interactions. The main purpose of this research was to assess the development of rural districts in some Italian regions as a consequence of the diffusion of agro-towns. The method of investigation has been a theoretical approach aimed at assessing the diffusion of the rural districts from 2016 to 2019 and by a comparison among Italian regions using some maps. Drawing some final remarks, agro-towns represent a fundamental pillar for the growth of the rural district in Italy due to their specificities in terms of social capital and local development, which are able to give a special connotation to the surrounding rural territory in a process of economic growth. In conclusion, the model of the rural district represents a spearhead for the countryside, emphasising all the peculiarities of rural areas where the impact of agro-towns has been significant in the past. The main consequence has been a transition of agro-towns from being degraded structures, where the incidence of agricultural underemployment was high, to structures where, despite the diffusion of large estates, there is an advanced social and economic development able to create a cohesive space that works to contrast the marginalisation of the Italian countryside.","PeriodicalId":30048,"journal":{"name":"Trakia Journal of Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67416700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The numerical data presented in the study are based on the available information included in various references in the Agrostatistics database of the Ministry of Agriculture and Foods, agrarian reports of the same ministry and the Executive Agency for Selection and Reproduction in Animal Breeding (EASRAB). The Galloway breed is one of the oldest and purest of local cattle breeds. They are known for their resilience and can subsist on the scarcest of lands, which is important under the conditions of current climatic and other challenges. Regarding the Genetic Reserve and the Gen Bank, registered by the EASRAB, the available information shows that there is no registered reserve and genetic bank for the Galloway breed in Bulgaria. This requires further studies and proposals for the inclusion of the Galloway breed in the selection and reproduction aimed at the development of sustainable beef cattle farming.","PeriodicalId":30048,"journal":{"name":"Trakia Journal of Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67462761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thirty clinically healthy Bronze turkeys (15 females and 15 males) were used for the study. Twelve tissue samples (six from the proventriculus and six from gizzard) from the corresponding age group were used to prepare histological slides. The preparations were stained with hematoxylin (Erlich) - eosin and Masson’s trichrome. The wall of the proventriculus was composed of four layers. They were tunica mucosa, tunica submucosa, tunica muscularis and tunica serosa. Mucosa had many grooves and plicae with simple columnar epithelium. The proventricular submucosa had compound tubuloalveolar glands which took the greatest part of the wall. The gizzard had tunica mucosa, tunica muscularis and tunica serosa. Compound tubular glands were found in the mucosa. On the mucosal surface was observed a thick keratinized layer, which was produced by the glands. In lamina propria mucosae were found compound tubular glands which opened on the mucosal surface by a short neck. The glands in the grooves were more branched, compared to those localized in the folds. Lamina muscularis mucosae was not found.","PeriodicalId":30048,"journal":{"name":"Trakia Journal of Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67462932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
