Envirox is a scientifically and commercially proven diesel fuel combustion catalyst based on nanoparticulate cerium oxide has been demonstrated to reduce consumption, greenhouse gas emissions (CO2), particulate when added at levels of 5 mg/L. Studies have confirmed the adverse effects particulates respiratory cardiac health, while use contributes reduction in content air, it necessary demonstrate that addition does not alter intrinsic toxicity particles emitted exhaust. The purpose this...
The SF-36 and the Quality of Well-being index (QWB) both quantify health status, yet have very different methodologic etiologies. authors sought to develop an empirical equation allowing prediction QWB from SF-36.They used observations profiles scores collected in interviews 1,430 persons during Beaver Dam Health Outcomes Study, a community-based population study 57 renal dialysis clinic.The eight scales SF-36, their squares, all pairwise cross-products, were as candidate variables stepwise...
We describe a novel heterothallic species in Aspergillus section Fumigati, namely A. felis (neosartorya-morph) isolated from three host with invasive aspergillosis including human patient chronic pulmonary aspergillosis, domestic cats fungal rhinosinusitis and dog disseminated aspergillosis. Disease all was often refractory to aggressive antifungal therapeutic regimens. Four other isolates previously reported as viridinutans were identified on comparative sequence analysis of the partial...
BackgroundShigellosis is a major cause of moderate to severe diarrhoea and dysentery in children under 5 years age low middle-income countries. The Flexyn2a vaccine conjugates the O-polysaccharide Shigella flexneri 2a Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A. We describe Phase 2b proof-of-concept challenge study that evaluated safety, immunogenicity, efficacy protect against shigellosis.MethodsIn this randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trial, healthy adults were randomized 1:1 receive (10...
A retrospective study of 155 cats and 40 dogs diagnosed with cryptococcosis between 1981 2001 was undertaken. Age, sex, breed, clinical findings, feline immunodeficiency virus leukaemia status (in cats), species Cryptococcus causing disease region domicile were recorded. Associations variables tested. Male female affected equally. Age ranged from 1 to 16 years, a preponderance aged 2 3 years. Siamese, Himalayan Ragdoll breeds over-represented. Rural more frequently infected gattii....
BackgroundDiarrheal diseases are a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality affecting all ages, but especially children under the age five in resource-limited settings. Shigella is contributor to diarrheal caused by bacterial pathogens considered significant antimicrobial resistance threat. While improvements hygiene, access clean water help as control measures, vaccination remains one most viable options for significantly reducing mortality.MethodsFlexyn2a bioconjugate vaccine...
Twenty-one lower respiratory tract infections diagnosed in cats at University of Sydney Veterinary Centre between 1995 and 2000 were identified retrospectively. Patient records analysed to determine historical, clinical, clinicopathologic radiographic features infections. Response therapy was also assessed. Infectious agents Mycoplasma spp., Pasteurella Bordetella bronchiseptica, Salmonella typhimurium, Pseudomonas sp., Mycobacterium thermoresistible, Cryptococcus neoformans, Toxoplasma...

Nanotechnology is the new industrial revolution of 21st Century as various processes lead to radical improvements in medicine, manufacturing, energy production, land remediation, information technology and many other everyday products applications. With this however, there are undoubted concerns for health, safety environment which arise from unique nature materials at nanometre scale.The vitro assays used screening strategy all validated, internationally accepted protocols provide a useful...
Aim This study explored the relationship between Registered Nurses' (RN) empowerment and intent to leave their current position and/or profession. Background While there is documentation of job satisfaction retention, little known about either Methods A web-based survey was conducted in which 1355 respondents completed measures personal demographics, empowerment, Results Relationships were found (F = 80.08, P < 0.001) profession 75.99, 0.001). Implications for nursing management The results...
Cladophialophora bantiana is a neurotropic phaeohyphomycotic fungal organism. The most common neural manifestation of C. infection brain abscessation or systemic phaeohyphomycosis. This the first report spinal cord dysfunction as presenting clinical this disease in dogs and cats. describes two cases myelopathy caused by dog cat. Case 1, 10-month-old male entire Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (CKCS) was presented for acute onset tetraparesis cervical pain. Magnetic resonance imaging identified...
Clinicopathological findings from six cats with confirmed cholecystitis or acute neutrophilic cholangitis are presented. Historical included lethargy and anorexia inappetence of up to five days duration. On physical examination all were pyrexic four out jaundiced had cranial abdominal pain. Bile samples obtained by cholecystocentesis at exploratory coeliotomy (two cases) percutaneous, ultrasound-guided (four cases). Gall bladder rupture bile peritonitis occurred subsequent in one case. The...
Background: Canine prostatic disease is commonly investigated using cytologic techniques, especially now that ultrasound‐guided fine needle cell aspiration (US‐ENA) widely available. Few studies, however, have evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of cytology. Objective : The purpose this study was to evaluate usefulness investigation US‐FNA and other methods in comparison with histopathologic diagnosis. Methods: Cytologic specimens prostate or paraprostatic tissue from 25 adult dogs were...
A retrospective study of 88 bronchoalveolar lavage specimens from 80 cats presenting to the University Sydney Veterinary Centre between 1995 and 2000 was performed. Bronchoalveolar cytology microbiology in conjunction with other diagnostic aids patient records were used classify cases as lower respiratory tract infections (LTRIs), LRTI revisits, feline bronchial disease, cardiac neoplastic disease multisystemic disease. Cases for which a definitive diagnosis could not be made classified...
Six cases (3 cats, 3 dogs) of cryptococcosis were cured using combination chemotherapy that included amphotericin B. We developed a simple, practical and inexpensive method administering B as subcutaneous infusion during the treatment these patients. For this, calculated dose (0.5 to 0.8 mg/kg) was added 400 mL, for or 500 dogs, 0.45% saline containing 2.5% dextrose. These amounts given subcutaneously 2 times weekly over several months, total cumulative 8 26 mg/kg body weight. Subcutaneous...
1. To test the hypothesis that repeated associations of exercise and increased respiratory dead space elicit mechanisms augment future ventilatory responses to alone, experiments were conducted on normal adult goats familiarized with experimental procedures. 2. Measurements ventilation, arterial blood gases CO2 production made at rest, during mild steady-state (4 km h-1; 5% grade) rest in seven before after training. In Series I experiments, training consisted fourteen twenty trials...
