Summary Renal haemorrhage in horses is a rare clinical condition that can have numerous causes. It usually associated with haematuria and be life‐threatening if the bleeding severe. The case report by Hannan et al. this issue describes unique manifestation of renal haemorrhage, referred to as Wunderlich syndrome. In commentary, an overview other causes will presented.
Equine gastric ulcer syndrome (EGUS) is the most common disease of stomach in horses and treatment based on oral administration omeprazole for at least 28 days. Aim this study was to compare efficacy two formulations omeprazole—powder paste gastro-enteric resistant granules—in naturally occurring ulcers racehorses. Thirty-two adult racehorses, aged between 2 10 years old, with clinical signs EGUS were included blinded, randomized trial. Two gastroscopies performed evaluate lesions squamous...
Summary The study was performed on 39 live donkeys that underwent gastroscopic examination. lesions were recorded in accordance with the European College of Equine Internal Medicine Consensus Statement guidelines. presence Gasterophilus sp. larvae also recorded. Larvae collected and identified to species level. Fisher's exact test used compare different prevalence values for sex, age, anatomical distribution lesions. Gastric present 20/39 (51.3% [35.6–67%]) donkeys; 19/39 (48.7% [95%...
The term inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) refers to a group of idiopathic, chronic intestinal characterized by diffuse infiltration cells into the lamina propria intestine. pathogenesis IBD is unknown. most common signs described are diarrhoea, vomit, and progressive weight loss. In order make definitive diagnosis, though, presence must be evident on histopathologic analysis. therapeutic approach has 2 main goals: decrease response remove possible antigenic sources, such as food components...
Equine gastric ulcer syndrome (EGUS) is a worldwide disease, and includes two different syndromes, Squamous Gastric Disease (ESGD), affecting the squamous mucosa, Glandular (EGGD), glandular mucosa. These diseases are present in categories (different activities, ages, etc.) breeds of horses. The effect sex on health not clear: some studies found higher prevalence ESGD geldings stallions, while others no influence few conducted failed to identify as risk factor. only study breeding horses,...
Equine Squamous Gastric Disease (ESGD) and Glandular (EGGD) are two terms used to indicate the presence of lesions squamous glandular mucosa stomach. Prevalences, pathophysiology, risk factors different, latter have been investigated in different populations. The aim this study was investigate prevalence ESGD EGGD a cohort pleasure, breeding, retired horses Italy. To authors’ knowledge, is first such diverse population animals one that includes large number Gastroscopies were performed 316...
Software is mostly, if not entirely, a knowledge artifact. best practices are often thought to work because they induce more productive behaviour in software developers. In this paper we deployed new generation tool, portable multichannel EEG, obtain direct physical insight into the mental processes of working developers engaged their standard activities. We have demonstrated feasibility approach and obtained glimpse its potential power distinguish brain activity with different methodologies.
Obesity and overconditioning are becoming more prevalent in horses, influencing the animal's health, activity, reproductive efficiency. Body condition score (BCS) cresty neck (CNS) have been correlated with development of various diseases. Many papers literature evaluate prevalence obesity horse populations considering BCS given by owners. The aim this study was to validity owners' estimation degree equine or comparing CNS provided each owner a board-certified vet cohort 259 horses their...
Equine Gastric Ulcers Syndrome (EGUS) is a worldwide disease present in equids of different breeds, activity levels, and age groups. It divided into two illnesses: Squamous Disease (ESGD) affecting the squamous mucosa Glandular (EGGD) glandular mucosa. The historical horserace traditional competition that common Italy. They can be types: speed races jousting tournaments. Anglo-Arabians Thoroughbreds are used for competitions with training management systems similar to those performed on...
A new formulation of omeprazole in gastro‐resistant granules was tested with regard to its pharmacokinetics and tolerability. Twenty‐four horses were randomly divided into three groups (8 horses/group) treated, according a parallel study design, as follows: Group untreated (control group), B received 4 mg/kg omeprazole, C 12 both which treated orally once day for 90 days. Blood samples, taken from subjects during the 1st 29th treatment at pre‐established time points, used determine...
Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS) is a worldwide disease of the stomach that can be found in different categories horses. Different clinical signs may present, but large number horses are asymptomatic. The aim this study was to identify possible correlation between body condition score (BCS) and EGUS population A total 203 non-athlete were submitted for gastroscopies, presence severity lesions glandular squamous mucosa recorded. board-certified veterinarian blinded gastroscopy results...
Helicobacter pylori gastric infections are among the most diffused worldwide, suffering from a rising rate of antibiotic resistance. In this context, some authors have previously designed an ingestible device in form luminous capsule to perform antibacterial photodynamic inactivation stomach. study, light-emitting capsules were tested verify safety use prior clinical efficacy studies. First, laboratory tests measured temperature while function and verified its chemical resistance conditions...
Grass awns commonly cause respiratory disease in dogs; when located the trachea or bronchi, they severe bronchial inflammation and sepsis. The interplay of cough, bronchoconstriction, mucus secretion can result a less effective expulsive cough phase, especially causal factor persists. exudate could consequently become trapped upper tracts dogs with vegetal foreign bodies. We retrospectively reviewed endoscopic findings tract that underwent bronchoscopy our hospital correlated these presence...
Physical exercise has an activating effect on platelet function that differs between trained and untrained subjects, depending the type of training status. In humans, soluble P-selectin (sP-sel) platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (PEVs) are considered reliable markers
The D-enantiomer of lactic acid (D-lactate) is normally produced from bacterial fermentation in the gastrointestinal tract mammals. In humans, increased D-lactate concentrations are related to disease, including short bowel syndrome and malabsorptive syndrome. Similarly, have been described calves affected by diarrhea, cats with diseases, dogs parvoviral enteritis. purpose present study was measure serum inflammatory disease (IBD). We retrospectively reviewed data database VTH Perugia...
Endoscopy is a common, minimally invasive diagnostic technique that can be used to observe internal organs, e.g. the stomach, and obtain mucosal bioptic samples for histo pathological examination. The aim of this study was analyse concordance between endoscopic histological evaluation gastric diseases in dogs. One hundred twenty-nine medical records dogs undergoing gastroscopy have been received stored by Veterinary Hospital Perugia University (Perugia, Italy) 2009-2012. reports acute...
In recent years, the use of biological signals to understand operations software engineers has emerged, although with a limited understanding its successful application. This paper provides primary evidence that obtained by electroencephalography (EEG) may provide valuable information from perspective engineers, who then decode adequacy, consistency, and efficiency their work. The experimentation 20 different professional male been completed. Two natural situations have investigated: pair...
