During the 6-year period (January 1, 1993 to December 31, 1998) in the Laboratory for Dermatopathology of Department of Dermatovenereology in Clinical Hospital Split, 1616 basal cell carcinomas (BCC) of a total of 323 investigated specimens were diagnosed. The incident rate varies from 92 to 114 BCC per 100,000 inhabitants in the Split region. The sex ratio in material is 1.2:1 in favor of males. The frequence of BCC increases with the advanced age in both sexes with the peak in the age group from 70 to 79 years. The most frequent location in both sexes is the nose followed by cheeks and trunk. Statistic analysis showed a significantly higher occurrence of BCC in temporal region in the males and perioral region in the females; respectively. The solid variant is the most frequent followed by superficial multicentric and solid-adenoid. Pure variants are found in 83.1% specimens, and mixed variants in 16.9%. Solid and adenoid variants are the most frequent on the nose and cheeks. According to statistics cystic variant is significantly higher on the forehead, and morpheic variant on the nose. Superficial multicentric variant is statistically more frequent on the trunk than on other locations. All specimens were reexamined and histopathologic variants were obtained. Over 2000 data are comprised which is a sufficient examination sample. In programs such as SPSS, and Graph master ver 1.12, Win95, MO'97 (Word, Excel, Access) on Pentium II 200 MHz, floppy, 64 MB RAM, HDD 2.1 GB, CD x24, HP LJet 6L, a comprehensive analysis has been performed.
Underground and surface waters in Dalmatia (Southern Croatia) have relatively preserved their natural characteristics since the greatest agglomeration of population and industry is located along the coast. The danger of pollution with fecal microorganism and products of biological decomposition is the most immediate problem but can be efficiently eliminated by water chlorination. The ecological need to sum up the work on water quality examination and estimation of future water quality trends resulted in water quality monitoring, i.e. in human health monitoring. It is necessary for large number of analytical and ecological health data to organize them from the informatical aspect into databases, the relational database for chemical analysis studying (the difference between anions sum and hardness) as methodological base for studying the ecological factors that influence human health defined in this paper. Results used for the prototype implementation subsystem of the chemical water analysis control are based on the investigations of Water Examination Department of the Public Health Institute of the Split-Dalmatian County (Croatia). Over 3400 data are comprised what is the sufficient examination sample. The software used included Win '95, Mo '97, and Paradox 4,5, while the hardware used included Pentium II 300 MHz, floppy, 128 MB RAM HDD 4,3 GB, CD x 24, HP DeskJet 710C.
The ecological approach to the disease facilitates the understanding of the reasons for the multiplicity of causal factors and the finding of those on which the preventive measures will be easily and successfully directed. That is the reason why integration of space data for getting insight into the existing condition from ecological point of view is necessary. The ecological need to sum up the work of the water research and to estimate the future water quality trends by observing the relevant parameters as influential ecological factors for the health of the population resulted in relation data base VODE. Besides it integrates the data group of waters data and from the ecological standpoint is suitable for the several years study of trends of existing water supply system condition with special survey of the results of the water quality analyses in view of the recognition of the actual pollutions that are significant for the health problems of population, group and individuals. One gets informations by putting questions and than plans necessary interventions, what is the new significant contribution in the approach to the analytical and monitoring techniques, i.e., application of informatical techniques in water pollution control.
Any BSP study results in information architecture and information system development priorities. However, in the decision-making process it is observed that one important factor is not included--prerequisites of performance of each individual information subsystem. This work presents the new additional approach to the decision-making process by so called Prerequisite Matrix as well as application of it to a BSP study of the Ideational Project Health Information System of the Public Health Institute of Split. As a result, we have dynamic priorities of subsystems which contribute to the optimal established information system development as a whole.
With regard to the relatively limited water supply in the area of Dalmatia (Southern Croatia), water supply system and health care institutions are especially interested in observing and monitoring the waters, as well as preserving their quality. The ecological need to sum up the work on water quality investigations led us to monitor the environment. Because it is necessary, from the informatical aspect, to organize mass ecological health data into databases, the relational database for the research of chemical analyses (coefficients K1 and K2) as the methodological foundation for the study of the ecological factors that influence human health is defined in this paper. Results used for the prototype implementation subsystem of the chemical water analysis control are based on the investigations of the Water Examination Department of the Public Health Institute of the Split-Dalmatian County (Croatia). Over 2500 data comprised the examination sample. The software used included Win'95, MO'97, and Paradox 4.5, while the hardware used included Pentium II 200 MHz, floppy, 64 MB RAM, HDD 2.1 GB, CD x 24, HP Ljet 4L.
