[Auditory skills in multi-handicapped children with cochlear implants].

Aim: The study aimed to assess the auditory skills in multi-handicapped children with cochlear implants.

Material And Methods: The study assessed 34 children, who were implanted due to the bilateral profound sensorineural hearing loss. Apart from the hearing loss, all of the subjects suffered from additional impairments (mild motor disabilities, cerebral palsy, cognitive disability, specific learning disability, behavioral disorders, sight impairment), 29 (85.

Cholesterol content and fatty acid composition of ostrich meat as influenced by subspecies.

Two muscles, the m. gastrocnemius and m. iliofibularis, were excised from the left legs of six Red Neck (Struthio camelus massaicus) and six Blue Neck (Struthio camelus australis) ostriches and analysed for lipid and cholesterol content and fatty acid composition.

Effect of cholesterol-enriched diet on liver and heart enzymes in male rabbits.

White New Zealand male rabbits were fed a high-cholesterol (1%) diet for 7 weeks. The activity of alkaline phosphatase (AP), alanine (AlaAT), aspartate (AspAT) aminotransferases and level of glucose in the blood plasma of rabbits was determined and compared with those of a control group of animals. The cholesterol-enriched diet resulted in increases in plasma AlaAT and AP activity and a decrease in plasma glucose.
