Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrasonographic Evaluation of Transcutaneous Electrical Neural Stimulation on the Repair of Severed Superficial Digital Flexor Tendon in HorsesDavood Sharifi, Dauod Kazemi, Abbas VeshkiniProblem statement: The main aim was to clinical assessment of the ultrasonographic changes of transcutaneous electrical neural stimulation after inducing injury in the SDFT in horses. Approach: Using 8 adults’ castrated horses having 350-550 Kgbw with 4-6 years of age. The left hind limb and right fore-limb Superficial Digital Flexor Tendon (SDFT) were splitted longitudinally at mid metatarsal and metacarpal … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,368 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFirst Confirmed Case of Digital Dermatitis in GreeceP.D. Katsoulos, A. Minas, G. ChristodoulopoulosThe objective of the present study was to report the first confirmed case of digital dermatitis in Greece, emphasizing to the clinical appearance of the disease and to discuss some potential mechanisms concerning the entrance and the contagiousness of the disease in a new herd. The outbreak occurred in a new dairy farm of 60 primiparous Holstein cows in Thessaloniki … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,825 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCancer may be caused by the Immune ReactionRichmond T. PrehnHormesis-like effects of immunity have been documented during tumor-growth experiments in mice, quantitatively large immune-reactions have inhibited while lesser quantities of the same specific immune-reactants have been stimulatory to the growth of implanted tumors. Likewise, carcinogenesis has been inhibited by a high quantities of immune reactants, but positively stimulated by lower levels of the same reactants. One observation suggests that … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,460 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpraying Effects on Goat Welfare in Hot and Humid ClimateNazan Darcan, Fatin Cedden, Okan GuneyHeat stress is one of the major factors adversely affecting animal welfare and thus economic benefits of farms. This study was designed to determine the effects of three different spraying methods on goats for reducing heat stress. Thirty goats divided into three groups for the trial (One time sprayed a day: OTS, Two times sprayed a day TTS and Non-sprayed: … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,297 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelation between Autoimmunity Chronic Urticaria and the Levels of Plasma Prothrombin F1+2Liu Xiaoming, Sheng Wanxiang, Ahmad T. Khalaf et al.A number of recent epidemiologic and experimental studies have enhanced our knowledge of the etiology and pathogenesis of chronic urticaria (CU), a disease that imposes profound impairment on patient's quality of life. Our study was performed to explore the relation between autoimmunity (CU) and the levels of plasma prothrombin F1+2. Thirty four (CU) patients with positive autologous serum skin test … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,897 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccumulation of Cholesterol Esters in ex vivo Lymphocytes from Scrapie-susceptible Sheep and in Scrapie-infected Mouse Neuroblastoma Cell LinesAlessandra Pani, Claudia Norfo, Claudia Abete et al.Our studies on the role of cholesterol homeostasis in the pathogenesis of scrapie in sheep, revealed abnormal accumulation of cholesterol esters in brains and in ex vivo skin fibroblasts from genetically scrapie-susceptible, as compared to sheep with resistant genotype. We now report that PBMCs isolated from scrapie-susceptible sheep, as well as mouse neuroblastoma cell lines persistently infected with two different … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractZonisamide: The Arizona ExperienceK.J. Oommen, Enriqe LabadieZonisamide (ZNS) is a new antiepileptic drug initially introduced in Europe, Japan and the United States (US) in the late 1980’s and was the first such drug to be clinically tested in the US, since the marketing of valproic acid in 1978. Reports of nephrolithiasis by European and US investigators resulted in the trials being terminated in the US during … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,164 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Study of Morphological Structure, Phase Structure and Molecular Structure of Collagen-PEO 600K Blends for Tissue Engineering ApplicationN. F. Mohd Nasir, M. G. Raha, N. A. Kadri et al.A new material which is collagen/ poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) blend was developed to determine its possibility as a promising material for tissue scaffold. PEO with average molecular weight of 600,000 and collagen originated from calf skin were dispersed in 0.1 M acetic acid to prepare a concentration of 1 wt% for PEO and 0.15 wt% for collagen. The collagen-PEO600K … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWound Healing Process of Uncomplicated “Rusterholz” Ulcer, Following Treatment by Wooden Block and Hoofgel® in Bovine Hoof: Histopathological AspectsH. Azarabad, I. Nowrouzian, E. Soleymani et al.A broad and very detailed histopathological knowledge on cutaneous wound healing particularly in human skin is available, but few studies have documented this event in bovine claw sole ulcers. It seems the mechanism of wound healing might be basically the same followed by second intention healing which is finished in a period of time by formation of granulation tissue in … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,847 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Investigation of Flow Control by Suction and Injection on a Subsonic AirfoilM. H. Shojaefard, A. R. Noorpoor, A. Avanesians, M. GhaffarpourThis study presents a numerical study concerning flow control by suction and injection. The case studied is the flow field over a subsonic airfoil with four suction and injection slots on the suction side of the airfoil. Five different angles of attack, 0, 5, 10, 13.3 and 20 with the Mach number of 0.15 are studied. Three cases are studied … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,428 accessesView PDFCite
