The effects of feeding different levels of whole linseed on fatty acid (FA) composition of muscles and adipose tissues of goat were investigated. Twenty-four Crossed Boer bucks were assigned randomly into three treatment diets: L0, L10, or L20, containing 0%, 10%, or 20% whole linseed, respectively. The goats were slaughtered after 110 days of feeding. Samples from the longissimus dorsi, supraspinatus, semitendinosus, and subcutaneous fat (SF) and perirenal fat (PF) were taken for FA analyses. In muscles, the average increments in α-linolenic (ALA) and total n-3 PUFA were 6.48 and 3.4, and 11.48 and 4.78 for L10 and L20, respectively. In the adipose tissues, the increments in ALA and total n-3 PUFA were 3.07- and 6.92-fold and 3.00- and 7.54-fold in SF and PF for L10 and L20, respectively. The n-6 : n-3 ratio of the muscles was decreased from up to 8.86 in L0 to 2 or less in L10 and L20. The PUFA : SFA ratio was increased in all the tissues of L20 compared to L0. It is concluded that both inclusion levels (10% and 20%) of whole linseed in goat diets resulted in producing meat highly enriched with n-3 PUFA with desirable n-6 : n-3 ratio.

Nω-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) has been utilized as a nitric oxide synthase antagonist for many years in both basic and clinical research settings to assess its therapeutic potential. Though a number of studies have shown the effect of L-NAME on testicular function, the information regarding the reversibility of these effects upon L-NAME withdrawal is limited. In the present study, male rats (68-80 days old) divided randomly into three groups received different doses of L-NAME, i.

Introduction: Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is an established first-line technique for the evaluation of lymphadenopathy and, with the help of ancillary testing, can in many instances obviate the need for an open biopsy. The Sydney system was recently proposed to provide consensus guidelines for the performance, classification, and reporting of lymph node FNAC. The present study was undertaken to evaluate its utility and study the impact of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE).

Avian pathogenic (APEC) is typically the cause of avian colibacillosis, which can result in oxidative stress, inflammation, and intestinal damage (APEC) Luteolin, in the form of glycosylation flavone, has potent anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties. However, its effects on APEC-induced intestinal oxidative stress and NF-κB-mediated inflammation in chicks remains poorly understood. After hatching, one-day-old chicks were stochastically assigned to four groups: a control group (basic diet), an group (basic diet) and L10 and L20 groups (with a dry matter of luteolin diet 10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg, respectively), with fifteen chicks in each group and one repeat per group.

Background: For knee osteoarthritis, the commonly used radiology severity criteria Kellgren-Lawrence lead to variability among surgeons. Most existing diagnosis models require preprocessed radiographs and specific equipment.
Methods: All enrolled patients diagnosed with KOA who met the criteria were obtained from **** Hospital.
