    Uvod: Ženska spolna disfunkcija je pomemben javnozdravstveni problem, saj ima negativne vplive tako na fizično zdravje kot tudi na dobro počutje ter opazno zniža kakovost življenja ženske in njenega partnerja. Na splošno je po svetu prevalenca spolne disfunkcije pri ženskah ocenjena na 60 %. Namen: Z magistrsko nalogo želimo razložiti pomembnost in vpliv spolne disfunkcije na življenje ženske, predstaviti vseh šest domen spolne (dis)funkcije, oceniti razširjenost ženske spolne disfunkcije v Sloveniji ter ugotoviti, kateri so dejavniki tveganja, ki vplivajo na pojavnost spolne disfunkcije. Metoda dela: V teoretičnemu delu smo opravili pregled literature, kjer smo uporabili: Google.si, Cobiss.si, CINAHL, Medline (PubMed), Science Direct, ResearchGate, Whiley Online Library. V iskalnem nizu smo iskali po ključnih besedah. V empiričnemu delu smo analizirali podatke, ki so bili pridobljeni v projektu Prevalenčna epidemiološka raziskava: ženske spolne motnje v Sloveniji. Projekt je potekal pod okriljem Zdravstvene fakultete in Nacionalnega inštituta za javno zdravje v letu 2015 (vodja projekta doc. dr. Andrej Starc). Za empirični del je bila izvedena presečna študija z uporabo deskriptivne metode dela, kjer smo podatke zbrali s pomočjo anketnega vprašalnika. Sodelovalo je 623 anketirank, ki so v času poteka raziskave obiskale ginekološke dispanzerje v Zdravstvenem domu Sežana, Splošni bolnišnici Izola, Univerzitetnem kliničnem centru Ljubljana in Zdravstvenem domu Celje. Uporabili smo validiran anketni vprašalnik s področja samoocene ženske spolne funkcije Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), ki služi kot orodje za ovrednotenje prevalence ženske spolne funkcije. Za obdelavo podatkov in prikaz rezultatov smo uporabili program IBM SPSS Statistics. Rezultati: Izpolnjenih anketnih vprašalnikov smo prejeli 623. Anketni vprašalnik je izkazal odlično notranjo konsistenco (α = 0,93). V vzorcu je bilo več kot 50 % anketirank mlajših od 40 let s povprečnim indeksom telesne mase 24. Večina je bila heteroseksualnih (n = 59996 %) s spolnimi odnosi z enim partnerjem (n = 53586 %). V času trajanja študije je bilo nosečih 108 (17 %) anketiranih in v menopavzi 101 (16 %). Od kontracepcijskih metod je večji delež žensk uporabljalo kondom (n = 11318 %) ali kontracepcijske tabletke (n = 8013 %). V Sloveniji ocenjujemo prevalenco ženske spolne disfunkcije na 31 %. Razprava in sklep: Prevalenca spolne disfunkcije v Sloveniji je primerljiva s študijami iz EU. Spolna disfunkcija narašča s starostjo, nanjo pa negativno vpliva pojav menopavze. Le domena bolečine, ki je vezana na vaginalno penetracijo, je pogostejša pri mlajših ženskah. Domene spolne funkcije so: spolna želja, vzburjenje, navlaženost, orgazem, zadovoljstvo in bolečina, ki med seboj dobro korelirajo, kar kaže na večdimenzionalno spolno naravo žensk.Introduction: Female sexual dysfunction is an important public health problem, especially because of its negative effects on physical health and well-being, and it also significantly reduces the quality of life in women and their partners. The prevalence of female sexual dysfunction around the world is generally estimated at 60% of the population. Purpose: This study aimed to explain the importance and an impact of sexual dysfunction on the life of women by presenting all six domains of sexual (dys)functions, assessing the prevalence of female sexual dysfunction in Slovenia and identifying the risk factors that affect the incidence of sexual dysfunction. Method of work: In the theoretical part we, undertook a literature review using Google.si, Cobiss.si, CINAHL, Medline (PubMed), Science Direct, ResearchGate, Whiley Online Library. The keyword terms searched were female sexual dysfunction, assessment of female sexual function, prevalence of female sexual dysfunction, female sexual function. In the empirical part, we analysed the data, obtained in the project named \u27Prevalent epidemiological study: women\u27s sexual dysfunction in Slovenia\u27. The project was carried out under the auspices of the Faculty of Health Sciences University of Ljubljana and the National Institute of Public Health in 2015 (the project leader, Dr Andrej Starc). For the empirical part, a cross-sectional study was carried out using the descriptive method of work, where we collected data using the questionnaire. A total of 623 respondents took part in the study which visited the gynaecology clinics in Sežana Health Centre, Izola General Hospital, the University Clinical Centre of Ljubljana and the Celje Health Centre during the course of the research. We used a validated questionnaire in the field of self-assessment of female sexual function called the \u27Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI)\u27, which serves as a tool for evaluating the prevalence of female sexual function. For the data processing and results displaying, the IBM SPSS Statistics programme was used. Results: A total number of 623 completed questionnaires were examined. The questionnaire showed excellent internal consistency (α = 0.93). In the sample, more than 50% of respondents were under 40 years of age, with an average body weight index of 24. Most of them were heterosexual (n = 59996%) with sexual intercourse with one partner (n = 53586%). During the duration of the study we recorded 108 (17%) pregnant women and 101 (16%) in menopause. A larger proportion of participants were using condoms (n = 11318%) or a contraceptive pill (n = 8013%) as a contraceptive method. Furthermore, female sexual dysfunction prevalence in Slovenia can be estimated at 31%. Discussion and conclusion: The prevalence of sexual dysfunction in Slovenia is comparable to various studies in the EU. Sexual dysfunction increases with age and is adversely affected by the onset of menopause. Only the domain of pain that is tied to vagina penetration is more common in younger women. Domains of sexual function are sexual desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, pleasure and pain, which correlate well with one another and point to the multidimensional sexual nature of women

    Constitutional Landlord Party in Carniola

    Avtor v svoji disertaciji obravnava politični Klub ustavovernih veleposestnikov na Kranjskem. V 19. stoletju se je na Kranjskem razplamtel t. i. nacionalni boj, boj med Slovenci in Nemci. Avtor dokazuje, da ne na eni in ne na drugi strani nacionalno niso bili homogeni. Čeprav so ustavoverni veleposestniki bili označeni kot nemška stranka, avtor dokazuje, da so med njimi bili ljudje, ki so bili po narodnosti Slovenci. Ustavovernim veleposestnikom so pogosto očitali pomanjkanje domoljubja in celo izdajstvo v obliki prusofilstva. Avtor ravno nasprotno dokazuje, da ustavoverni veleposestniki niso nikoli poveličevali Prusije in Bismarcka, ampak močno Avstrijo. Zagovarjali so zavezništvo z Nemčijo, ker so bili mnenja, da bi to Avstriji koristilo. Ustavovernim veleposestnikom so pripisali tudi nasprotovanje slovenskemu šolstvu, zaviranje le-tega in poskus uničenja oz. izrinjanja. Avtor dokazuje, da ustavoverni veleposestniki niso nasprotovali slovenskemu šolstvu. Zagovarjali so ohranitev učenja nemščine. Njihovi argumenti so bili zelo praktične narave. Najbolj pogosto so navajali, da je nemščina omogočala nadaljnje šolanje in bila vsesplošno potrebna v državi. Politični zaton ustavovernih veleposestnikov se je pričel z nastopom Taaffejeve vlade in Andreja Winklerja na Kranjskem. Avtor dokazuje, da je slednji zelo hitro in učinkovito obračunal z ustavovernimi veleposestniki. Uničil je njihov časnik Laibacher Tagblatt in jim tako odvzel glasilo, s katerim so dosegali širše množice. Še največji udarec je za ustavoverne veleposestnike predstavljalo umiranje njihovih dolgoletnih glavnih članov zaradi starosti. Tako je v osemdesetih letih 19. stoletja umrlo precej vidnih članov, recimo Karel Deschmann. V novo epoho so ustavoverni veleposestniki stopili šele z Josephom Schweglom. Schwegel, po rodu Slovenec, je bil dolga leta v službi zunanjega ministrstva kot diplomat. Schwegel je postal eden izmed najbolj vplivnih ustavovernih veleposestnikov ne le na Kranjskem, temveč tudi v Avstriji. Razkol in razcepitev Narodnega kluba na Slovensko ljudsko stranko in Narodno napredno stranko je izkoristil ter se povezal s slednjim. Tako mu je uspelo ponovno oživiti klub na Kranjskem in ga politično reaktivirati. Tega ni izkoristil za sejanje nemira, ampak za konstruktivno sodelovanje. Ivan Hribar je ta uspeh Schwegla v svojih spominih najbolj slikovito opisal: ustavoverni veleposestniki so postali »jeziček na tehtnici« pri glasovanjih.In his dissertation, the author addresses the political club Constitutional Landlord Party in the Cronland Carniola. In the 19th century a national fight erupted in the Carniola between the Slovenies and the Germans. The author proves that neither side was nationally homogeneous. Although the Constitutional Landlord Party was marked as a German party, the author proves that there were also people of Slovenian nationality among them. The Constitutional Landlord Party was often accused of lacking patriotism and even treason in a form of prussophilism. The author proves the oppositethe Constitutional Landlord Party glorified Austria and never Prussia and Otto Bismarck. They defended the alliance with Germany, because they believed Austria would benefit from it. The Constitutional Landlord Party supposedly opposed and suppressed Slovenien education, and they had also attempted to destroy it. The author proves that Constitutional Landlord Party did not in fact oppose to the Slovenian education. They defended the preservation of learning the German language. Their arguments were very practical. Frequently they mentioned that the German language enabled further education and was overall used in the country. The political decline of Constitutional Landlord Party started with the onset of Eduard Taaffe central Government and Andrej Winkler in Carniola. The author proves that Andrej Winkler settled a score very quickly and efficiently with the Constitutional Landlord Party. He destroyed their newspaper Laibacher Tagblatt and took away their newsletter, with which they reached wider audiences. The biggest blow for the Constitutional Landlord Party represented the dying of their long-time key members because of old age. Quite a number members died in the 80s of the 19th century, for example Karel Deschmann. The Constitutional Landlord Party stepped in a new epoch with Joseph Schwegel. Joseph Schwegel was a Slovenian by birth and was for many years in the service of the foreign ministry as a diplomat. Joseph Schwegel became one of the most influential members of the Constitutional Landlord Party not only in the Carniola but also in the Monarchy. He took advantage of the division and the split of the national club to the Catholic National party and the National Liberal club and connected with the latter. Thus, he could reinvigorate the club in Carniola and politically reactivate it. He did not take an advantage of this to make disorder, but to achieve constructive cooperation. In his memoirs Ivan Hribar described the success of Joseph Schwegel very picturesquely: The Constitutional Landlord Party “tipped the scales” in the ballots

    Development of natural gas and pipeline capacity markets in the United States

    No full text
    Deregulation of the U.S. natural gas industry has been under way since the late 1970s. The industry was deregulated to create competitive markets in natural gas and its pipeline transportation, in the expectation that competition would guide transactions toward a more efficient outcome. The author provides an overview of the deregulation process and its effect on the development and functioning of natural gas and gas transportation markets in the United States. He analyzes the trading of pipeline capacity in primary and secondary markets and the regulation of pipeline transportation, identifies mechanisms that pipeline companies use to coordinate bilateral transactions, and summarizes deregulation's main achievements in the U.S. natural gas industry. Industry achievements in the past 15 years show that expectations were not realistic. The United States enjoys a highly competitive interstate transportation market. Both markets have benefited from the deregulation of natural gas production and marketing and the liberalization of natural gas prices. Introducing open access to interstate pipelines and their unbundling from gas sales has allowed end users to participate in the efficiency gains in upstream markets. All this has contributed to declining retail prices for all major consumer categories. Deregulation is far from complete, however. Current regulation of interstate pipeline companies and the secondary transportation market does not promote efficient allocation of transportation contracts. Flexible pricing of transportation contracts should be introduced in both the primary and secondary transportation markets. But deregulation of retail markets remains the most important task and the bigger challenge facing industry regulators. Small-volume end users (such as residential or commercial customers) are captive to local distribution utilities, without access to competitive wholesale markets. All end users should be able to choose a natural gas supplier and receive natural gas at the minimum cost to society.Oil&Gas,Water and Industry,Markets and Market Access,Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Transport and Environment,Water and Industry,Oil Refining&Gas Industry,Oil&Gas,Carbon Policy and Trading

    Clinical Hypnosis and Female Sexual Dysfunction: A Case Report

    No full text
    Seksualna funkcija kod žena obuhvaća promjenjiva i raznolika stanja koja uključuju kompleksne interakcije fizioloških, psiholoških i interpersonalnih komponenti. Unatoč napretku u razumijevanju neurobiologije seksualne reakcije, definicija normalne seksualne reakcije kod žena ostaje nerazjašnjena. Normalna seksualna funkcija kod žena razlikuje se od osobe do osobe i ovisi o kulturi, ideologiji, uvjerenjima i drugim čimbenicima. Metode: Primijenili smo prikaz slučaja čija je svrha opravdati daljnje istraživanje o učinkovitosti hipnoze u liječenju cervikalne boli tijekom penetracije, kao i poremećaja orgazma. Rezultati: Orgazam je postignut tijekom stimulacije partnera, ali nije postignut tijekom penetracije. Učestalost spolnog odnosa povećana je (tri do četiri puta tjedno) u usporedbi s periodom prije terapije (jedanput u dva mjeseca). Orgazam nije postignut svaki put za vrijeme masturbacije ili stimulacije partnera, već povremeno, međutim, češće nego prije terapije. Uspjeh je postignut u postizanju orgazma tijekom penetracije. Zaključak: Hipnoterapija može biti obećavajuća dodatna ili samostalna intervencija u liječenju i fizičkih i psiholoških simptoma. Rezultati hipnoterapije pokazuju da su simptomi znatno ublaženi, a time je poboljšana i kvaliteta života. Simptomi boli tijekom spolnog odnosa nisu uklonjeni, ali je pacijentica postigla znatnu kontrolu nad tim simptomima.Background: Female sexual function comprises variable and multi layered conditions that incorporate complex interactions of physiological, psychological, and interpersonal components. Despite the progress in understanding the neurobiology of sexual response, the definition of normal sexual response in women remains unresolved. Normal female sexual function differs from individual to individual and depends on the culture, ideology, beliefs, and other factors. Methods: We used a case report, the purpose of which is to justify further investigation into the effectiveness of hypnosis for the treatment of cervical pain during penetration, as well as orgasm disorder. Results: An orgasm was reached by masturbation performed on her by her partner, but without an orgasm by penile-vaginal penetration. The frequency of sexual intercourse has increased (3-4 times/week) in comparison to prior to therapy (once/ 2 months). Orgasm does not occur by self- and by partner masturbation every time, but sporadically; however, more frequently than before therapy. Success has been achieved with the orgasm by penile-vaginal penetration. Conclusions: Hypnotherapy may be a promising co-intervention or intervention per se for both physical and psychological symptoms. The results of hypnotherapy demonstrate that symptoms were significantly alleviated and, consequently, the quality of life improved. Symptoms of pain during sexual intercourse were not eliminated, but the patient had achieved significant control over those symptoms

    Andrej Belocvetov first dedicated his efforts to chiaroscuro still life paintings and portraits, often using heavy, pasty brushstrokes. He let himself be inspired by the work of Frans Hals and Rembrant. He also paints urban landscapes and still life work in various impressionistic variations. A very important factor influencing the artistic expression of Andrej's life was his synesthesia - in his case it was a neural connection between music and colours, the so-called coloured hearing. For Andrej, the fifties were a period of surrealist tendencies on the one hand, and to Picasso-like Classicism and the new German Objectivity of George Grosz and Otto Dix. Andrej paints portraits of women and children and still life paintings. He is diagnosed with severe epilepsy. Belocetov's health problems culminate in the fifties and persist during the sixties. The author himself spoke about "Neosurrealism", and even though he was familiar with Surrealist methods and techniques, he never really felt bound by them. He created freely, guided only by his imagination. He also put a great emphasis on the graphic aspect of the painting. He participates in group exhibitions of the Máj 57 movement in 1957 and 1958 in Prague, in 1958 in Warsaw (where he is not personally present), and in 1964 in Prague. In 1958, he has his first..

    Uvod: Nekoliko čimbenika utječe na proces profesionalizacije. Rad se fokusira na proces profesionalizacije u lancu zdravstvene zaštite. Poseban naglasak stavljen je na sestrinstvo i profesionalizaciju sestrinstva kao struke. Tijekom procesa tranzicije postoje određeni endogeni i egzogeni elementi koje je potrebno identificirati. Metode: U analizi podataka korištena je kvantitativna i kvalitativna metodologija. U kvantitativnom dijelu analize korištena je deskriptivna statistika, analiza kontingencije, metoda najmanjih kvadrata i multivarijatna linearna regresija sa i bez kontrolnih varijabli, oboje temeljenih na indeksaciji. Kvalitativni dio se sastojao od analize podataka prikupljenih putem otvorenih pitanja i polu-strukturiranog intervjua. Za potrebe istraživanja izrađen je i posebno prilagođen upitnik. Rezultati: Značajke procesa profesionalizacije prisutne su kod profesionalaca u području sestrinstva starijih od 51 godina, s više od 26 godina radnog iskustva, i zaposlenih na primarnoj razini zdravstvene zaštite. Stjecanje novih znanja predstavlja doprinos njihovom ljudskom kapitalu te istovremeno podiže razinu njihovog stručnog znanja. Cjeloživotno učenje, autonomija sestrinskih profesionalaca i specifična znanja u sestrinstvu kao endogeni i egzogeni čimbenici ukazuju na statistički značajan pozitivan utjecaj. Analiza je utvrdila da etika u sestrinstvu ima samo marginalan statistički značajan pozitivan utjecaj u procesu profesionalizacije sestrinstva. Zaključak: Identifikacija endogenih i egzogenih čimbenika omogućuje dodatno planiranje i istraživanje prakse i kvalitete zdravstvene zaštite.Background: Several elements influence the process of professionalization. The focus is on the process of professionalization in the healthcare chain. A special emphasis proportion was given to the field of nursing and its gradual transition to the profession. During the transition process endogenous and exogenous environment act as elements which should be identified. Methods: Data were analysed using quantitative and qualitative methodology. A quantitative part involved descriptive statistics, contingency analysis and ordinary least squares and multivariate linear regression with and without control variables, both based on indexation. The qualitative part consisted of the analysis of the data collected through open-ended questions and semi-structured interview. An adjusted questionnaire was designed. Results: Attributes into the process of professionalization are present in nursing professionals aged more than 51 years with more than 26 years of working experience, employed at primary level of healthcare. The acquisition of new knowledge represents the contribution to their human capital and contemporaneously raises their expert power as well. Lifelong learning, nursing professional autonomy and specific knowledge in nursing as an endogenous and exogenous factors indicate statistically significant positive impact. The analysis identified that ethics in nursing had only marginal statistically significant positive impact in the process of nursing professionalization. Conclusions: The identification of endogenous and exogenous elements allows additional planning as well as research into the practice and quality of care in general
