Bovine Theileriosis

The purpose of the research is studying therapeutic properties of Butakur against spontaneous bovine theileriosis.Materials and methods. Butakur was used on the Yalgin Farm and at the Umarov Agricultural Enterprise in the Karabudakhkentskiy District to treat 30 animals in the early stage of the disease at a body temperature of 40.4–41.7 0C and a parasitic reaction of 30.2%. Piroplasmids were differentiated by microscopy of smears, imprints of lymph nodes and peripheral blood, and by detected purple bodies and parasites in them, excluding mixed infection. Two groups of animals were formed on the principle of analogs. In the test group (n = 15), Butakur was used as a specific therapy at a dose of 2.5 mg/kg for the active substance at a rate of 1 ml/20 kg of body weight, and the antimalarial drug Delagil (chloroquine) was used in the control group at a dose of 15 mg/kg within 4–5 days. A different combination of chemotherapy drugs with symptom-directed and pathogenetic drugs was used simultaneously.Results and discussion. Butakur was the most effective when used in the early period of the disease development from the moment the body temperature rose and until a slight parasitemia in erythrocytes was observed with the simultaneous use of symptom-directed and pathogenetic drugs. Out of 15 animals that received Butakur at a dose of 1 ml/20 kg (2.5 mg/kg for the active substance), 13 animals recovered, and the efficacy was 86.6%.

AbstractIntroductionThe study aimed to observe TNF-α serum concentration as well as changes in respiration rate, body temperature, and pulse rate in burn victims during 84 h post burn.Material and MethodsA total of 30 healthy pigs were divided into two groups: A, the test group and N, the control group. The experimental group suffered burns to 30% of the body surface, and after infliction of the burns both groups were closely monitored.ResultsThe biggest increase in TNF-α serum concentration in the test subjects occurred around the 6th h of the study, and the second biggest increase took place between 12th and 36th h. In the 36th h, TNF-α was 2.5 times more concentrated in serum in the test group than in the control group. In the test group, the biggest increase in respiration rate occurred up to the 6th h post burn, on average up to 29/min. In the 12th h post burn, the mean pulse rate in the test group was 133/min and dropped to the lowest value in the 72nd h of the experiment. A gradual increase in body temperature up to 41.72°C was observed up to the 30th h post burn and decreased to a significant value of 40.74°C by the 84th h of the study.ConclusionIn a period of a pronounced rise in TNF-α serum concentration, this parameter, pulse rate, and respiration rate are highly correlated and are also influenced by multiple inflammation forming factors.

SUMMARY A total of twenty-three human pre-viable foetuses (7–400 g.) were removed by abdominal hysterotomy (legal abortions) and studied during survival in an anoxic state at different temperatures. The duration of survival, as judged by ECG waves, at 37° c was about 3 hr.; it was longer for female foetuses than for males, and longer for large foetuses than for small ones. General reduction of the body-temperature to 4° c during periods varying between 30 min. and 6 hr. with subsequent rewarming to and maintenance at 37° c increased the survival time by a further 1–2 hr. The blood sugar did not decrease either during the period of survival or during hypothermia, but the non-protein nitrogen increased, while acidosis and hyperkalaemia developed. The glycogen content of the liver decreased during the anoxic period of survival and diminished further during hypothermia. The adrenal glands produced adrenaline in addition to noradrenaline during the anoxic phase, and this may occur in a very early stage of intrauterine life.

High blood pressure, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and obesity are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. With regard to the significant role of a healthy diet in the prevention and even treatment of diseases together with the high cost and side effects of drugs, finding foods effective in the treatment of metabolic disorders has been widely considered. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of oxymel – an Iranian traditional syrup with vinegar base – on cardiovascular risk indicators in obese and overweight people. Candidates were selected based on a set of inclusion criteria and were divided into two groups of control and test. The control group received 250 cc of water, while the test group received 250 cc water containing 30 cc of the oxymel for 30 days. Anthropometric and biochemical indicators were measured at the beginning and end of the study. The results showed that there were no significant changes in the body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference, waist to hip ratio, HDL, LDL, Triglycerides, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and blood glucose level. However, weight (P = 0.053) and cholesterol (P = 0.083) decreased relatively significantly in the test group compared to the control group. This study shows that consumption of oxymel has positive cardiovascular effects such as lowering the blood cholesterol level and can contribute to weight loss; however, studies with a larger sample size are recommended.

Abstract BackgroundTo explore the clinical characteristics of patients with severe heat stroke, we explored the early sensitive indicators of heat stroke (HS) patients, with a view to early intervention for HS patients. MethodsFrom July 30, 2015 to October 5, 2020, 70 inpatients with severe heat stroke admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University, Jiangsu Province were selected as the research objects. The general information and clinical test indicators of the patients were recorded, and all patients were assessed for acute physiology (APACH Ⅱ) upon admission. According to the severity of heatstroke, they were divided into three groups: control group (heat cramps and heat exhaustion), EHS, and CHS to compare the differences in indicators of each group. Further draw the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC).Results1. According to the severity of heat stroke, 28 cases were divided into the control group, 24 cases in the EHS group, and 18 cases in the CHS group. The body temperature of the EHS group and the CHS group was significantly higher than that of the control group (both P<0.05), but there was no statistical difference in the body temperature of the EHS group and the CHS group; the DD, PCT, and APACH of the EHS group were significantly higher than those of the control group and the CHS group (both P＜0.05); PLT, CRP, Na, GLU of EHS group were lower than those of control group and CHS group (all P＜0.05), and the decrease of PLT was more significant; CHS group HbA1C was significantly higher than that of control group and EHS group (all P <0.05). 2. ROC curve analysis the areas under the curves of DD, PCT, and PLT are 0.670, 0.705, 0.791, respectively, the sensitivity is 40.48%, 100%, 73.81%, and the specificity is 96.43%, 32.14%, 78.57%, respectively. Using the combined analysis of the three series tests, the area under the curve was 0.838, the sensitivity was 71.43%, and the specificity was 85.71%. ConclusionsEHS patients have higher DD, PCT, APACH, but PLT, CRP, Na, and blood sugar are lower. At the same time, the significant decrease of PLT and the increase of PCT and DD may be early sensitive indicators of HS. The combined detection of the three can be used as a reference basis for early diagnosis of HS and critical illness.

Abstract Heat stress continues to be a challenge for feedlot producers, forcing physiological adaptations in beef cattle that can have a negative impact on gain and carcass quality. Feedlots may want to incorporate systems that aid in mitigating heat stress, including sprinkler systems, which are commonly found on dairies. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of sprinkler systems on the body temperature of growing feedlot steers applied at three different temperature thresholds. Thirty-two Angus-cross beef steers (298 ± 15 SD days of age) were randomly assigned to 8 pens. Treatments were assigned to pens according to location to avoid drainage issues, with one replicate located on the eastern side of the feedlot and the other replicate located on the western side. Treatments including no sprinklers (C), high temperature threshold sprinklers (HT), moderate temperature threshold sprinklers (MT) or low temperature threshold sprinklers (LT). Sprinklers (flow rate: 5.11 L/min) were activated at 33°C (HT), 28°C (MT), and 23°C (LT) for five minutes at corresponding temperatures every thirty minutes for 57 days. Rectal temperature of steers in their pens was measured in the morning (0800 h), afternoon (1500 h), and evening (1900 h) three days each week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) for a total of 19 experimental days. Weather measurements, including ambient temperature, windspeed, humidity and solar radiation were recorded at each measurement time along with the maximum values for each day. The change in body temperature (ΔBT) between the morning and afternoon was affected by ambient temperature (P &lt; 0.01); MT (P = 0.02) and LT (P = 0.02) – different than C. There was no significant difference between sprinkler treatments and the control group (P &gt; 0.05). Day affected (ΔBT) between the morning and afternoon (P &lt; 0.05) and the afternoon and evening (P &lt; 0.05). When averaged by day, the control group was significantly higher than MT (P = 0.04) between the morning and afternoon. The control group was also significantly higher than LT between the morning and afternoon (P = 0.03) and the afternoon and evening (P &lt; 0.01). The change in steer body temperature between afternoon and morning was affected by ambient temperature, and averaged across days, lowering the temperature threshold for sprinkling decreased in the afternoon and evening body temperature increase in steers.

Background: Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) is associated with various pathophysiological changes in the body including hematological system. This study was done to understand the hematological profile of severely malnourished children.Methods: This case control study was conducted in the Department of pediatrics, G.S.V.M. Medical College, Kanpur from January 2014 to December 2015. 200 children, aged 6 months- 5years admitted to our hospital with SAM were enrolled as cases. 200 children with normal nutritional status without haematological or infectious conditions attending routine clinic were selected as controls. The hematological parameters were analyzed using an automated blood Analyzer.Results: 95% of the children with SAM had anemia, out of which 52% were severely anemic and 28% were moderately anemic. Mean value for hemoglobin was lower in test group (7.17±2.265gm/dl) as compared to control group (9.22±3.362gm/dl). Children with SAM had statistically significant lower mean values for red cell indices like RBC counts, MCV, MCH and MCHC compared to controls. The mean value of WBC in SAM children was 12.1±11.5×103, while it was 6.2± 7.8×103 in controls. The cases had higher mean value for neutrophils and lower mean value for lymphocytes.Conclusions: Children with SAM had lower mean hemoglobin, hematocrit and red cell indices and higher mean value of total leukocyte and platelet counts. This study recommends that more frequent studies should be done to describe the trend of hematopoietic changes in children with SAM to enhance anticipatory care and outcome of the affected children.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the protective effect of Erdosteine on complete freund’s adjuvant (CFA) induced arthritic rats. Methods: Wistar Albino rats of 100–250 g were divided into five groups (n=6) and administered with 0.1 ml of CFA subcutaneously into the left hind paw except the negative control group. The standard group received methotrexate (MTX) 0.075 mg/kg body weight orally. Besides, the test groups received Erdosteine orally at a dose 10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg bodyweight for 12 days. The changes in body weight, paw volume, hematological parameters, radiographical, and histological findings were the indicators to evaluate the efficacy of the test product. Discussion: Significant change in the body weight, paw volume, radiographical, hematological, and histological parameters were observed which supports the remarkable reduction of the arthritic development in the standard and test groups compared to the untreated group. However, the test group (Erdosteine) with the dose 20 mg/kg shows to be more potent than the test group (Erdosteine) with a dose 10 mg/kg and the standard group (MTX) to reduce the arthritic effect. Results: The test group with 20 mg/kg Erdosteine showed much better outcome than the standard group at significant (p<0.05). Therefore, Erdosteine acting as an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant is effective at a dose 20 mg/kg in treating the progression of rheumatoid arthritis in rats.
