Article Synopsis
- Camel filariasis causes a range of symptoms in male camels, including fever, lethargy, skin lesions, and reproductive issues, making it important to differentiate between those with only balanoposthitis and those infected with filariasis.
- The study analyzed 250 male camels across three groups and found significant differences in clinical and laboratory findings, especially in serum testosterone and testicular histopathology, indicating these as key diagnostic tools.
- Results showed that camels with both balanoposthitis and filariasis had a higher severity of tick infestations and more pronounced clinical symptoms than those with only balanoposthitis, highlighting the complexity of diagnosing these conditions.
Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the effects of epidural administration of romifidine, a romifidine-lidocaine combo, and lidocaine alone on sedative and pain relief in donkeys during surgical procedures.
- - Twenty-four healthy adult donkeys were randomly assigned to receive one of the treatments or a control (saline) and observed for sedation and pain relief over a period of 210 minutes post-injection.
- - Results showed that romifidine and romifidine-lidocaine caused moderate sedation, while all treatments provided effective pain relief in specified areas, with romifidine offering the longest duration of sedation.
Background: Problems associated with using inhalational anaesthesia are numerous in veterinary anaesthesia practice. Decreasing the amount of used inhalational anaesthetic agents and minimising of cardiorespiratory disorders are the standard goals of anaesthetists.
Objective: This experimental study was carried out to investigate the sparing effect of intravenous tramadol, lidocaine, dexmedetomidine and their combinations on the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of sevoflurane in healthy Beagle dogs.
Importance: The number of pulmonary nodules discovered incidentally or through screening programs has increased markedly. Multidisciplinary review and management are recommended, but the involvement of radiation oncologists in this context has not been defined.
Objective: To assess the role of stereotactic body radiation therapy among patients enrolled in a lung cancer screening program.
Background: Integrating tobacco treatment services into lung cancer screening (LCS) has the potential to leverage a 'teachable moment' to promote cessation among long-term smokers and reduce disparities in tobacco treatment access. This protocol paper describes the Screen ASSIST (Aiding Screening Support In Stopping Tobacco) trial, which will identify how to best deliver evidence-driven tobacco treatment in the context of LCS.
Methods: Screen ASSIST is a randomized clinical trial with a 3-factor, fully crossed factorial design that enrolls current smokers (any cigarette use in the past 30 days) scheduled to attend LCS at multiple sites in the Mass General Brigham healthcare system.
