Mid-substance rupture of the canine cranial cruciate ligament (CR) and associated stifle osteoarthritis (OA) is an important veterinary health problem. CR causes joint instability contralateral often develops. The dog model for human anterior (ACL) rupture, where graft repair or ACL also common. This suggests that both genetic environmental factors may increase risk. We investigated use bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) to reduce systemic inflammatory responses in dogs...
Key populations, including people who inject drugs (PWID), men have sex with (MSM), and female workers (FSW), are disproportionately affected by the HIV epidemic. Understanding magnitude of, informing public health response to, epidemic among these populations requires accurate size estimates. However, low social visibility poses challenges to efforts.The objective of this study was derive population estimates PWID, MSM, FSW in Kampala using capture-recapture.Between June October 2017,...
Objectives and design This trial evaluated the effect of bandaging acute painful ulcerative bovine digital dermatitis (DD) lesion (stage M2) in dairy cows, tested using two different topical treatments. Design Randomised clinical trial. Setting study was conducted Holstein‐Friesian cows ranging age from heifers to fourth lactation a single herd diagnosed with DD lesions on first examination (week 0). Cows were randomly assigned into either non‐bandaged or bandaged group across treatment...
To develop transparent and reproducible methods for imputing missing data on disease incidence at national-level the year 2005.We compared several models country-level rates two foodborne diseases - congenital toxoplasmosis aflatoxin-related hepatocellular carcinoma. Missing values were assumed to be random. Predictor variables selected using least absolute shrinkage selection operator regression. We predictive performance of naive extrapolation approaches Bayesian random mixed-effects...
The purpose of this study was to apply a novel statistical method for variable selection and model-based approach filling data gaps in mortality rates associated with foodborne diseases using the WHO Vital Registration dataset. Correlation analysis elastic net regularization methods were applied drop redundant variables select most meaningful subset predictors. Whenever predictor missing, multiple imputation used fill plausible values. Cluster identify similar groups countries based on...
Tibiotarsal fractures are a common presentation in small bird species and anecdotally have been reported to carry good prognosis with proper treatment, such as external coaptation. For this retrospective study, the medical records of 5 institutions were reviewed for tibiotarsal diagnosed companion birds weighing less than 200 g. A total 86 cases met inclusion criteria. Cockatiels (Nymphicus hollandicus) (24/86) budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) (19/86) most frequently represented...
Mechanical signals play an integral role in the regulation of bone mass and functional adaptation to loading. The osteocyte has long been considered principle mechanosensory cell type bone, although recent evidence suggests sensory nervous system may a mechanosensing. specific signaling pathways responsible for skeleton through modeling remodeling are not clearly defined. In vitro studies suggest involvement intracellular mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase...
Data containing notified cases of disease are often compromised by incomplete or partial information related to individual cases. In an effort enhance the value from enteric notifications in New Zealand, this study explored use Bayesian and Multiple Imputation (MI) models fill risk factor data gaps. As a test case, overseas travel as for infection with campylobacteriosis has been examined.Two methods, namely Specification (BAS) (MI), were compared regarding predictive performance various...
