Clinical examination revealed pain on the left side in the region of TMJ, and pain on opening, chewing, and palpation. Also, deviation to the right, and clicking on opening were present. A painful sensation on the left masseter muscle was detected on palpation. The diagnosis was established according to the functional analysis, clinical examination, and obtained anamnestic data. The decision was stabilizing occlusal splint to be administered in combination with exercises, physiotherapy, and symptoms-relieving analgesic treatment if needed. This protocol aimed to alleviate the painful symptomatology and enable relaxation of the muscles of mastication to some degree, before orthodontic treatment. This would obtain a solid basis for stable orthodontic treatment outcomes. Based on the case of the presented patient, it can be concluded that temporomandibular joint disorders (TMJD) can be treated with occlusal splint therapy in combination with exercises and physiotherapy.

In view of the fact that dogs are carriers and definitive hosts of a large number ofzoonotic endoparasites, their feces may represent a source of infection for humans and a real threat to their health. That is the reason for raising the level of awareness among citizens about the necessity of executing zoohygienic measures in dog breeding, as well as about the significance of causally planned dehelminthization and anti-ectoparasitic treatments. Further, it is essential that dog owners perform regular coprological examinations, immediately after getting the dog and four times a year afterwards, abiding by the principle of shifting the preparations used based on their different chemical formulations. A timely diagnosis of intestinal parasites in dogs and proper treatment of infected animals enable the prevention of these infections in humans. Contamination of public areas with intestinal parasites from dog feces represents a public health problem that should be kept under control using the appropriate social medicine approach. Such an approach would typically involve health education measures related to the control of parasite transmission in the environment, provision ofthe guidelines to dog owners for prevention of the occurrence, persistence, and spread of zoonotic diseases, and health education of medical and veterinary professionals, pet owners, and the wider community regarding the preservation of the health of both humans and pet animals. An increased level of knowledge and corrected attitudes and behaviors among individuals would certainly contribute to more effective prevention of zoonotic diseases.

The aim of this research was to examine differences in CSI scores between subjects with painful lumbosacral radiculopathy (PLSR). This study included 33 subjects with PLSR (mean age 54.12 ± 9.43 years, 6 (18.2%) women) and 30 healthy subjects (mean age 50.87 ± 5.64 years, 12 (40%) women). The Serbian version of the Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI) was used to examine the degree symptoms related to CS. In order to evaluate the emotional status, we used the Serbian version of the Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale (DASS 21). The obtained results showed a significantly higher value of the CSI score in subjects with neuropathic pain (t =- 7.690, p = 0.000). Statistically significantly worse DASS 21 values in subjects with neuropathic pain in all 3 subscales: depression subscale (t =-2.437, p = 0.018), anxiety subscale (t =- 3.597, p = 0.001), stress subscale (t =-3.982 p = 0.000). The degree of expression of symptoms related to CS determined, as well as the degree of anxiety, depression and stress is significantly higher in subjects with PLSR compared to the group of healthy subjects. This should be kept in mind when designing a treatment plan for individuals with PLSR.
