Glioblastoma is the most common brain malignancy and is marked by an extremely poor prognosis, despite advances in surgical and clinical neuro-oncology. That is why central nervous system glioblastoma is quite a challenging neoplasm, requiring much further research to understand the molecular and cellular clinical basis. Existing in vivo glioblastoma models are based on the inoculation of glioma cells...
Ninety-seven bison (39 males and 58 females) were culled out during three successive winter seasons. No infection with BHV-1 and BHV-5 or other viruses was detected by PCR and SN methods. Advanced pathological lesions observed in males exhibiting symptoms of posthitis/balanoposthitis are probably due to secondary infection by microorganisms present in the prepuce (Corynebacterium spp., Bacillus spp...
The paper describes current views on the use of osteochondral autografts and allografts in the treatment of articular cartilage lesions in animals. It presents surgical techniques of grafting and the biological features of osteochondral auto- and allografts, and their effect on the recipient's cartilage.
The research was aimed at determining the impact of the experimental oral administration of zearalenon on the uterus in bitches. The study was carried out on 9 sexually mature 1 to 3 year-old bitches that were divided into three groups: two experimental ones and a control group. The experimental animals were orally administered zearalenon at 25 μg/ kg BW (body weight) (group DI; n=3) and 50 μg/kg...
Polymorphism of goat milk asrcasein was determined and potential relations between genetic variants of this protein fraction and goat performance were evaluated. The investigations were performed on 598 goats assigned to of 4 breed groups (White improved 254 units, Coloured improved -124, White non-improved - 146 and Coloured non-improved - 74). For each goat, asrcasein polymorphism was determined...
The aim of this report is the presentation of disc-associated caudal cervical spondylomyelopathy cases in dogs treated with the method of distraction and stabilization with the cement plug. Surgical operations were performed in 2 rottweilers and one cross-breed. In one case, two lesions were operated at the same time and in one it was a recurrence after 4 years (in the intervertebral space adjacent...
A limited field trial was performed to evaluate the fertilizing capacity of boar spermatozoa frozen in an extender supplemented with lipoprotein fractions isolated from ostrich egg yolk (LPFo). Boar semen, diluted in an extender containing lactose with lyophilized lipoprotein fractions, glycerol and Orvus Es Paste (lactose-LPFo-G), was frozen using a controlled programmable freezer. Sperm characteristics,...
Five cats with femoral fractures caused by pneumatic gun shot wounds were treated using intramedullary pin/external skeletal fixation "tie-in" (IM/ESF tie-in) technique between 1997 and 2005. Clinical and radiographical examinations were used to assess bone healing, limb function recovery and complications. Clinical results as well as fracture healing were excellent in all five cats. The...
The aim of the publication is to assess the effectiveness of the treatment of type I disc extrusion according to Hansen by using the method of hemilaminectomy without fenestration. The evaluated clinical material comprised 36 chondrodystrophic dogs in which 38 surgical procedures were performed. All dogs were administered corticosteroid during the operation. Dachshunds made up to 79% of patients....
It is common knowledge that fish are a nutritious component of a human diet, as they constitute a valuable and desired source of protein and polyunsaturated fatty acids. However, they are likely to pose a risk to consumer health. The presence of pathogenic bacteria or their toxins, parasites, biogenic amines and toxins or chemical residues may be a causal agent of foodborne illnesses in humans, sometimes...
