Cilj: utvrditi razlike u otvorenosti i dijeljenju znanstvenih radova na Sveučilištu u Rijeci.Metode: Analizirani su znanstveni radovi autora Sveučilišta u Rijeci iz Hrvatske znanstvene bibliografije (CROSBI) u 4 područja (2017.–2019.) na uzorku od 210 radova. Kao metrički pokazatelj kvalitete časopisa korišteni su kvartili SciMago Journal Rank (SJR). Provjerena je prisutnost cjelovitog teksta u otvorenom pristupu u 3 vrste repozitorija (Repozitorij UNIRI – Dabar; ArXiv; Crosbi) i na društvenoj akademskoj mreži ResearchGate. Istraženo je postojanje razlika u stupnju sklonosti samoarhiviranju i dijeljenju radova s obzirom na područje znanosti.Rezultati: Znanstvenici iz područja prirodnih znanosti (N=55; 78;6%) i biomedicine i zdravstva (N=49; 70%) značajno više (P<0;001) objavljuju u časopisima u Q1 i Q2 kvartilama. Autori iz područja društvenih i humanističkih znanosti više objavljuju u Q3 i Q4 te časopisima izvan baze podataka Scopus (N=57; 81;4%). Udio radova u otvorenom pristupu (N=107; 51%) približno je jednak udjelu u zatvorenom pristupu (N= 103; 49%) (P=0;7825). Za samoarhiviranje i dijeljenje radova znanstvenici su koristili platformu ResearchGate (N=77); ArXiv (N=32); Repozitorij UNIRI (N=15) i Crosbi (N=9). Od svih područja znanosti; analiziramo li radove s visokim stupnjem sklonosti samoarhiviranju i dijeljenju; prednjače autori iz područja prirodnih znanosti (N=21; 60%).Zaključak: Najveći stupanj sklonosti samoarhiviranju i dijeljenju rada pokazuju znanstvenici iz prirodnih znanosti. Nije uočena povezanost između SJR kvartila časopisa i sklonosti autora da samoarhivira ili podijeli svoj rad na otvorenoj platformi.------------------------------------------------Differences in openness and sharing of scientific papers at the University of RijekaAim: to determine differences in openness and sharing of scientific papers.Methods: We have analysed scientific papers from the Croatian Scientific Bibliography (CROSBI) from University of Rijeka (Croatia) in 4 fields (2017–2019) on a sample of 210 papers. The SciMago Journal Rank (SJR) quartiles were used as a metric. We have checked the presence of the full text in open access in 3 types of repositories (Repository UNIRI-Dabar; ArXiv; CROSBI) and on social academic network ResearchGate. Tendency of self-archiving and sharing with regard to the field of science was investigated.Results: Scientists in the field of natural sciences (N=55; 78.6%); and biomedicine and health (N = 49; 70%) publish more (P <0.001) in Q1 and Q2 journals. Social sciences and humanities authors publish mostly in Q3 and Q4 journals and in journals not indexed in the Scopus database (N =57; 81.4%). The proportion of open access papers (N=107; 51%) is equal to closed papers (N=103; 49%) (P=0;7825). Scientists used ResearchGate platform (N=77); ArXiv (N=32); UNIRI Repository (N=15) and CROSBI (N=9) for the self-archiving and sharing of papers. High degree of tendency for self-archiving and sharing was observed in the field of natural sciences (N=21; 60%).Conclusion: The highest degree of tendency for self-archiving and sharing is shown by natural scientists. There was no correlation between SJR quartile and the author's tendency to self-archive or share his work on an open platform.

Background. The objective of this study was to estimate trends in ectopic pregnancies (EP) in a tertiary care center of Eastern Saudi Arabia. Method. Information about patients with ectopic pregnancies who had been admitted to King Fahd Hospital of the University, AlKhobar, between January 2000 and 31 December 2011 was collected from a computerized hospital registry. Age-specific ectopic pregnancy incidence was calculated. The data was analyzed using SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences), version 14.0 (Chicago, IL, USA). Results. There were 274 EPs during the study period; the yearly incidence in terms of 24,098 deliveries was 1.19%. The average age was 28.99 Å 5.62 years. During a three-year period (2000–2002), the incidence was 0.92%; from 2003 to 2005, the incidence was 1.01%; from 2006 to 2008, the incidence was 1.51%; and from 2009 to 2011, the incidence was 1.35%. Age-adjusted ectopic pregnancy incidence rates steadily increased from 92.23 per 10,000 women years during the period 2000–2002 to 149.408 during the 2006–2008 period; since then, it has declined to 110.313 per 10,000 women years. Conclusions. Our study reveals that the incidence of EP has decreased from what it had been during the mid-2000s but has remained significantly elevated when compared to the early 2000s.

Traditionally in Germany environmental engineering education took place within the context of a civil engineering programme. There were reasons for this: the beginning of much of what we understand today to be environmental works fell within the parameters of city engineering. There were and are advantages mostly in view of the necessary planning, construction and operation of environmental infrastructure. There are also disadvantages which become more and more pronounced as the field of environmental protection expands: the civil engineer frequently lacks basic training in disciplines such as biology and chemistry and carries a large and sometimes burdensome knowledge of other less relevant subjects. Thus, educators begin to look for alternatives. This paper deals with an alternative that was developed some ten years ago and therefore has proven viable and successful: at the University of Karlsruhe students may choose to major in environmental engineering within the context or on the basis of an economics and business administration curriculum. The basic question here is as to what extent the student masters the field of environmental engineering if he or she has predominantly a solid background in social sciences and very little in natural sciences. The paper will describe the curriculum in structure and intensity and evaluate the accumulated knowledge and suitability of these students in terms of actual environmental problems. This will be done in terms of examination performance parallel and/or relative to traditionally trained civil environmental engineers as well as in terms of topics successfully treated in Masters' theses. In conclusion, it is argued that such combination of curricula should not be confined to economic sciences and environmental engineering but also be planned for legal sciences and environmental engineering.
