RAD 548. Medical Sciences 56-57 (2021) : 12-14 www.rad-med.com 12 December 2021 Vol 548 = 56-57 Soon after the founding of our Academy in 1861 – initially under the name the Yugoslav Academy of Sciences and Arts, and today the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, the journal named RAD was launched in 1867. In the beginning, this publication included all the domains covered by the Academy. Subsequently, the journal began being published in several sub-series, each of which, including RAD CASA – Medical Sciences, was published within its separate Academy Department. The Academy Department of Medical Sciences was formed in 1950, and has operated autonomously since then. The first issue of RAD CASA – Medical Sciences was published in 1951, which was one year after the Department became autonomous. In the following 55 years, i.e. until 2006, 29 issues of RAD – or volumes, as we prefer to call them, had been published. This means one volume in two calendar years on average. In 2006, the following idea matured and was realised within the Department of Medical Sciences: the journal’s editorial signature should be revitalised. Thus, Marko Pećina, F.C.A., was elected editor-in-chief, whereas the editorial board chose mostly associate members of the Croatian Academy from diverse fields of the scientific area covered by the Department of Medical Sciences. In the Editorial to Volume 496, Issue 30/2006, the editor-inchief wrote as follows: We take pride in our journal RAD of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, which has so far reached 496 volumes. We are proud of this heritage of ours and of all its positive sides. We wish to continue our work, and to enrich the traditional values with the most valued and best confirmed tenets of our today’s cybernetic era. From the very beginning of the operation of the new editorial board of RAD CASA – Medical Sciences, since 2006, we have been aware of the secret of the journal’s success in the present high technology era. This secret lies in the fact that the journal ought to be published continually and in the English language, as well as be available in the electronic version (based on free or open access), and indexed in the principal bibliographic bases. Thus, RAD CASA – Medical Sciences has since 2007 been published in English, with summaries and keywords in Croatian, continually once or twice a year. Since 2019, four issues have been published per year in the form of double issues. In 2006, we joined hrcak.srce.hr, the web portal of the Croatian scientific journals. Every year, we are indexed in new bibliographic bases: Google Scholar, Biomedicina Croatica, EBSCO Publishing databases, Socolar Open Access, Croatian Web Archive, DOI, and the Digital Collection of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts. We are currently lobbying to be included in SCOPUS and the Emerging Sources Citations Index – a part of the Thomson Reuters Web of Science.

548 RAD。医学科学56-57 (2021):12-14 www.rad-med.com 2021年12月12日第548卷= 56-57我们学院于1861年成立后不久——最初的名称是南斯拉夫科学和艺术学院,今天是克罗地亚科学和艺术学院——于1867年创办了名为RAD的期刊。在开始的时候,这份出版物包括了学院涵盖的所有领域。随后,该杂志开始以若干子系列出版,每个子系列,包括RAD CASA -医学科学,都在其单独的学院部出版。医学院医学部成立于1950年,自那时以来一直自主运作。第一期RAD CASA -医学科学于1951年出版,这是该部门成为自治的一年后。在其后的55年,即至2006年为止,共出版了29期《科学发展指南》,我们更愿意称之为卷。这意味着平均每两个日历年出版一卷。2006年,以下想法成熟并在医学科学系内实现:该杂志的编辑签名应该恢复活力。因此,f.c.a. Marko Pećina被选为总编辑,而编辑委员会主要从医学科学系所涵盖的科学领域的不同领域挑选克罗地亚科学院的准成员。主编在第30/2006期第496卷的社论中写道:我们为克罗地亚科学和艺术学院的《RAD》杂志感到自豪,该杂志迄今已达496卷。我们为我们的这一遗产及其所有积极方面感到自豪。我们希望继续我们的工作,并以我们今天的控制论时代最有价值和最被证实的原则来丰富传统价值观。自2006年《RAD CASA -医学科学》新编辑委员会开始运作以来,我们就意识到该杂志在当今高科技时代取得成功的秘诀。这个秘密在于,期刊应该以英语持续出版,同时提供电子版(基于免费或开放获取),并在主要书目基础上编入索引。因此,自2007年以来,RAD CASA -医学科学一直以英文出版,其中以克罗地亚语发表摘要和关键词,每年持续出版一至两次。自2019年起,每年以双刊形式出版四期。2006年,我们加入hrcak.srce。hr,克罗地亚科学期刊门户网站。每年,我们都会在新的书目数据库中编入索引:Google Scholar, Biomedicina Croatica, EBSCO Publishing数据库,Socolar Open Access,克罗地亚网络档案,DOI和克罗地亚科学与艺术学院数字馆藏。我们目前正在游说被纳入SCOPUS和新兴资源引文索引——这是汤森路透科学网的一部分。我们的期刊RAD CASA - Medical Sciences on hrcak的网页让我们感到高兴和满意,因为自2006年以来,我们的访问量超过40万次,平均每期访问量约为16,000次,而大约50%的访问者下载了文章。亲爱的读者,我希望你已经从我们的文章中推断出我们的杂志正在庆祝我们的第一个70年(RAD CASA -医学科学杂志70周年)。

RAD 552. Medical Sciences 58-59 (2022) : 20-26 www.rad-med.com 20 June 2022 Vol 552 = 58-59 Abstract: Introduction. Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is characterised, among other features, by increased impulsivity and aggression, both directed toward the self and others. These clinical signs most likely arise from complex gene-environment interactions. In our study, we sought to elucidate the role of prenatal testosterone exposure in female patients with BPD. Materials and Methods. In a sample of 42 patients and 50 controls matched for age and biological sex, we measured the ratio of the second to the fourth digit of both hands (2D:4D ratio), which is established as a reliable correlate of prenatal testosterone levels in the foetus. In addition, we used several self-rating scales to determine personality dimensions, impulsivity, aggressiveness and risk-taking behaviour. Results. No differences between the groups emerged with regard to 2D:4D ratio of both hands. In addition, there were almost no correlations between psychological measures and the 2D:4D ratio in the entire sample. Conclusions. Contrary to predictions, female patients with BPD did not differ from controls in 2D:4D ratio bimanually, suggesting no abnormal intrauterine (prenatal) exposure to testosterone in this clinical group. As expected, differences between patients and controls in personality traits, impulsivity, aggressiveness and risk-taking were highly significant and in concordance with the existing body of knowledge. Since BPD features are highly heterogeneous, it could be interesting to study subgroups of BPD patients, rather than the broader phenotype according to DSM-5 criteria.
