Abstract
COVID-19 is also manifested with hypercoagulability, pulmonary intravascular coagulation, microangiopathy, and venous thromboembolism (VTE) or arterial thrombosis. Predisposing risk factors to severe COVID-19 are male sex, underlying cardiovascular disease, or cardiovascular risk factors including noncontrolled diabetes mellitus or arterial hypertension, obesity, and advanced age. The VAS-European Independent Foundation in Angiology/Vascular Medicine draws attention to patients with vascular disease (VD) and presents an integral strategy for the management of patients with VD or cardiovascular risk factors (VD-CVR) and COVID-19. VAS recommends (1) a COVID-19-oriented primary health care network for patients with VD-CVR for identification of patients with VD-CVR in the community and patients' education for disease symptoms, use of eHealth technology, adherence to the antithrombotic and vascular regulating treatments, and (2) close medical follow-up for efficacious control of VD progression and prompt application of physical and social distancing measures in case of new epidemic waves. For patients with VD-CVR who receive home treatment for COVID-19, VAS recommends assessment for (1) disease worsening risk and prioritized hospitalization of those at high risk and (2) VTE risk assessment and thromboprophylaxis with rivaroxaban, betrixaban, or low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) for those at high risk. For hospitalized patients with VD-CVR and COVID-19, VAS recommends (1) routine thromboprophylaxis with weight-adjusted intermediate doses of LMWH (unless contraindication); (2) LMWH as the drug of choice over unfractionated heparin or direct oral anticoagulants for the treatment of VTE or hypercoagulability; (3) careful evaluation of the risk for disease worsening and prompt application of targeted antiviral or convalescence treatments; (4) monitoring of D-dimer for optimization of the antithrombotic treatment; and (5) evaluation of the risk of VTE before hospital discharge using the IMPROVE-D-dimer score and prolonged post-discharge thromboprophylaxis with rivaroxaban, betrixaban, or LMWH.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There are few prediction tools for estimating the risk of thrombosis but they are based on studies performed on hospitalized medical patients without cancer or on hospitalized neutropenic cancer patients without special consideration to lymphoma patients. AIM Aim of our study was to determine incidence of thromboembolic (TE) events in patients with non Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/ small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who were hospitalized to the lymphoma department in the Clinic of hematology, Clinical Center Serbia, Belgrade and Clinic of hematology, Clinical Center Kragujevac. Also, we assessed 2 predictive models (Padua and Khorana score) and create new model for the identification of lymphoma patients at risk for thromboembolism. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed all medical records of patients with with NHL, HL and CLL/SLL diagnosed and treated at two previously mentioned institution between January 2006 and December 2014. RESULTS The study population included 1820 eligible lymphoma patients. Of all the patients included in the study, 99 (5.4%) developed at least one TE during a follow-up period of 3 months from the end of therapy. In the final multivariate analysis, the following variables were independently associated with risk of TE: previous VTE and/or arterial events, reduced mobility (ECOG 2-4), obesity (BMI >30 kg/m(2)), extranodal localization, mediastinum involvement, development of neutropenia during therapy and hemoglobin level less than 100g/L. Subsequently, we assigned points for the risk model based on the regression coefficients obtained from the final model and developed Thrombosis Lymphoma (ThroLy) score consisting of all significant variables from the multivariate analysis. The Throly score was arrived at by assigning 2 points for all parameters with an OR >5 in multivariate regression analyses (e.g., previous VTE and arterial events, mediastinum involvement, and BMI) and 1 point for rest all other significant variables. Finally, population were divided into 3 risk categories for TE based on the score from the risk model: low (score 0-1), intermediate (score 2-3) and high (score >3). High risk score had a positive predictive value (probability of TE in those designated high risk) of 65.2%. CONCLUSIONS Significance of our investigation is development of score that help phisicians to recruit lymphoma patients at risk for development of thromboembolic complications. Also, we can say that our score is dynamic allowing us to change approach during different phase of therapy and is not limited to outpatient settings or with some complicated laboratory analysis.

Abstract
Orbital and ocular andexal Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma (MALT) or ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma (OAML) is the most common of all eye non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Autoimmune inflammatory disorders and chronic infections are important etiological factors and CD5 and CD43 (sialophorin) tumor markers are significant negative prognostic factors. Disease signs and symptoms can occur a long time before diagnosis. Varieties of treatment options are available. The aim of this retrospective analysis was to compare the efficiency of different treatment options and to investigate disease outcome. Twenty OAML patients, diagnosed in the Clinic of Hematology, Clinical Centre of Serbia, between 2003 and 2013, were enrolled. In most cases, OAML developed in the eighth decade with greater incidence in the male population. Median age was 67.5 years. The median period between the appearance of local signs and symptoms and diagnosis was 7 months. The dominant sign at presentation was swelling of involved tissue (40%). The most common was orbital involvement (55%). All patients had localized disease. Observed laboratory parameters on presentation showed low disease activity. Sialophorin prognostic significance was not registered. Our patients were initially treated differently but there was no significant difference in progression-free survival (PFS) due to initial treatment option (p = 0.2957). Median PFS was 22 months (3-89), and 5-year PFS was 60%. Median overall survival (OS) was 43 months (1-105) and 5-year OS 95%. Eight patients (40%) relapsed and one patient died due to non-hematological complications. In our experience, most modern induction treatment options appear to result in the same, favorable outcome.

Abstract
A new endogean bembidiine ground beetle species, Winklerites serbicus sp. n.,
from a cave in the southeastern part of Serbia is both described and
diagnosed. Male and female genital structures and other taxonomically
important characters are illustrated. The new species is clearly distinct
from its closest congeners. Fifteen species of the genus so far known are
arranged in six groups. The new species is both endemic and relict,
inhabiting southeastern Serbia only.

Abstract
A solution of natural, food-grade resin (Shellac) in ethanol was evaluated to treat samples of visually clean and dry cattle hides with the aim to reduce bacterial removability from the hides by swabbing. Hide treatment by 23% Shellac-in-ethanol solution reduced sponge-swabbing recoveries of general microflora (TVC) by a factor of 6.6 logs (>1000-fold larger than the 2.9 log reduction observed by ethanol alone), and of generic Escherichia coli and Enterobacteriaceae by factors of at least 2.9 and 4.8 logs, respectively. These reductions were superior to those achieved by a sanitizer rinse-vacuum hide treatment. Significantly greater reductions of TVC recoveries from hides were achieved when using higher Shellac concentrations (23 and 30% rather than 4.8-16.7%) and when Shellac solution temperatures were 20-40 degrees C rather than 50-60 degrees C. Furthermore, the Shellac-based treatment also markedly reduced the E. coli O157 prevalence (3.7-fold reduction) on natural, uninoculated hides, as well as the counts of E. coli O157 on artificially inoculated hides (2.1 log reduction). This preliminary study indicated that a "bacterial on-hide immobilisation" approach to reducing transmission of microorganisms from cattle hide is promising and so will be further explored.

Abstract
Human ELAV proteins are implicated in cell growth and differentiation via regulation of mRNA expression in the cytoplasm. In human embryonic teratocarcinoma (hNT2) cells transfected with the human neuronal ELAV-like protein, Hel-N1, neurites formed, yet cells were not terminally differentiated. Cells in which neurite formation was associated with Hel-N1 overexpression, also expressed increased levels of endogenous neurofilament M (NF-M) protein, which distributed along the neurites. However, steady-state levels of NF-M mRNA remained similar whether or not hNT2 cells were transfected with Hel-N1. These findings suggest that turnover of NF-M mRNA was not affected by Hel-N1 expression, despite the fact that Hel-N1 can bind to the 3' UTR of NF-M mRNA and was found directly associated with NF-M mRNA in transfected cells. Analysis of the association of NF-M mRNA with the translational apparatus in Hel-N1 transfectants showed nearly complete recruitment to heavy polysomes, indicating that Hel-N1 caused an increase in translational initiation. Our results suggest that the stability and/or translation of ARE-containing mRNAs can be regulated independently by the ELAV protein, Hel-N1, depending upon sequence elements in the 3' UTRs and upon the inherent turnover rates of the mRNAs that are bound to Hel-N1 in vivo.

Abstract
Mammalian ELAV proteins bind to polyadenylated messenger RNAs and have specificity for AU-rich sequences. Preferred binding sites in vitro include the AUUUA pentamer and related sequences present in the 3′ untranslated regions of many growth regulatory mRNAs. Human ELAV (hELAV) proteins have been implicated in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression by their effects on the stability and translatability of growth regulatory mRNAs. We have examined the intracellular localization of ELAV proteins in neurons and in tumor cells of neuronal origin using indirect immunofluorescence, confocal microscopy and biochemical separation. Mammalian neuronal ELAV proteins are found predominantly in the cytoplasm of cells in mRNP complexes termed alpha complexes which, when associated with polysomes, form large and high density ss complexes, as assayed by glycerol and accudenz gradients, respectively. Puromycin, cytochalasin or EDTA treatments disrupt beta complexes causing the release of alpha complexes, which then appear, by confocal microscopy, as large hELAV mRNP granules associated with microtubules. Association of partially purified hELAV mRNP alpha complexes with microtubules was confirmed by in vitro reconstitution assays. Furthermore, colchicine treatment of cells suggested that association of hELAV mRNP alpha complexes with microtubules is also necessary for the formation of ss complexes. Our data suggest a model in which a subset of mRNAs is associated with microtubules as ELAV mRNP particles (alpha complexes) which, in turn, associate with polysomes to form a translational apparatus (beta complex) that is, through polysomes, associated with the microfilament cytoskeletal network. hELAV proteins in these mRNP granules may affect post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression via the intracellular transport, localization and/or translation of growth regulatory mRNAs.

Abstract
Hantaan virus-infected Vero E6 cell lysates were used for immunoprecipitation with monoclonal antibodies against glycoprotein G1 (MAbG1) or G2 (MAbG2). When cell lysates were prepared with buffer containing nonionic detergent, both G1 and G2 glycoproteins were precipitated with either MAbG1 or MAbG2. In contrast, when cell lysates were prepared with a buffer containing ionic detergents MAbG1 precipitated only glycoprotein G1 and MAbG2 precipitated only glycoprotein G2. Heterodimers and possibly higher oligomeric forms of the glycoproteins were detected on nonreducing SDS-polyacrylamide gels only after chemical cross-linking and immunoprecipitation with either MAbG1 or MAbG2. In order to determine the sites of Hantaan virus glycoproteins maturation and the G1-G2 complex formation, infected cells were treated with inhibitors that prevent specific steps of oligosaccharide processing. Furthermore, glycoproteins G1 and G2 immunoprecipitated from infected cell lysates or from isolated virus particles were tested for sensitivity to endoglycosidase H, endoglycosidase F, and endoglycosidase D. The results of these experiments show that maturation of both G1 and G2 takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Furthermore, G1-G2 complex formation occurs in the ER as well, since the two glycoproteins co-precipitated with either MAbG1 or MAbG2 from infected cell lysates treated with brefeldin A and prepared with buffer containing nonionic detergent.

Abstract
The genomic M segment of Seoul 80-39 virus was characterized by cloning and nucleotide sequence analysis. The virion M RNA segment is 3651 nucleotides long with the 3' and 5' terminal sequences inversely complementary for 20 bases. A single open reading frame was detected in the viral complementary-sense RNA which can encode a polypeptide of 1133 amino acids. The Seoul 80-39 virus M segment was compared with the M segments of related viruses, Hantaan 76-118, Hallnas B1 and Sapporo Rat (SR-11) virus. Our results demonstrate a significant similarity between M RNA segments of the Seoul 80-39, Hantaan 76-118, Hallnas B1 and SR-11 viruses. The degree of conservation of both nucleic acid and protein sequences between these viruses reveals a close evolutionary relationship. Furthermore, it is evident that the serotypic profile of hantaviruses is determined by the rodent host species from which the virus was isolated and not by the geographical area.

Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of the large (L) genomic RNA segment of Seoul 80-39 virus was determined from overlapping cDNA clones. The virion L RNA segment is 6530 nucleotides long. The 3' and 5' terminal sequences are inversely complementary for 15 bases. The viral complementary-sense RNA contains a single open reading frame from an AUG codon at nucleotide position 37-39 to a UAA stop codon at nucleotide position 6490-6492. This ORF could encode a polypeptide of 2151 amino acids (246,662 kDa) which likely corresponds to the L protein detected in purified viral particles (Elliott et al., 1984) and is assumed to be an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase molecule (Schmaljohn and Dalrymple, 1983). Comparison of the L protein of the Seoul 80-39 virus with the polymerase proteins encoded by other negative-stranded RNA viruses revealed 44% similarity only with the part of the Bunyamwera virus L protein (Elliott, 1989) and a very weak homology with the PB1 protein of influenza virus.
