Phthalates such as di‐n‐butyl phthalate (DBP) and their esters are widely used plasticizers, their ubiquitous presence in daily life, inevitably leads to their restricted use due to important environmental pollution and health impacts and endocrine disruption potential. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of a sublethal concentration of 10 mg L?1 DBP on haematocrit (HCT) values, gills and liver histology, malondialdehyde (MDA, 2‐thiobarbituric acid‐TBA reactivity) and reduced glutathione (GSH) levels in gills and liver tissue as oxidative stress biomarkers in the aquaculture fish species Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) after 24 (DBP‐24) and 96 (DBP‐96) h exposure. No differences were found between per cent HCT values in the 24 h exposure groups (P > 0.05). Response of antioxidant defence systems in liver and gill tissues of the fish were dependent on exposure duration and changed to a higher extent during 96 h. MDA levels in liver tissue increased in DBP treated fish in comparison to the control fish. However, the differences between the exposure and control groups were not significant (P > 0.05). A statistically significant decrease (P > 0.05) was recorded in gill MDA levels in the DBP‐96 group when compared to the control and DBP‐24 groups. The liver GSH levels were unchanged in the DBP treated fish. However, GSH levels were significantly lower in the gill tissue of the DBP‐96 group. Exposure to DBP caused several degenerative changes in the histology of gill and liver tissue. Gills displayed hyperaemia, epithelial lifting, oedema, talengiectasia, epithelial hyperplasia and fusion of secondary lamellae, whereas in liver several circulatory anomalies (hyperaemia, blood congestion and sinosoid dilatation) and vacuolization of hepatocytes were observed. Histopathological results demonstrated that the gills were more affected than the liver perhaps due to their direct contact with DBP. 相似文献

A 5‐year‐old male Norwegian Forest cat presented with increased hepatic serum biochemical parameters. Abdominal radiography showed an oval cranioventral mass and ultrasound revealed a mobile mass attached to one hepatic lobe. Computed tomography (CT) confirmed that the mass was attached to the right medial liver lobe. Differential diagnoses were an accessory liver lobe, benign neoplasia, and focal nodular hyperplasia. The mass was removed and histopathology confirmed the mass to be normal liver tissue. Accessory liver lobe should be included in the differential diagnosis of a mobile cranial abdominal mass with a similar ultrasonographic or CT appearance to the liver. 相似文献

In this article, we assessed the reproduction rates of the generalist pteromalid parasitoids Anisopteromalus calandrae and Lariophagus distinguendus on the coleopteran pest species, Sitophilus oryzae and Rhyzopertha dominica, when these hosts were offered together under environmental conditions reproducing spring or early summer. These species had proved to be the most suitable hosts in terms of parasitoid progeny production for both parasitoid species in no choice experiments in previous studies. Trials with A. calandrae and L. distinguendus had lower pest emergence in the parasitoid treatment when compared to the control for S. oryzae. However, for R. dominica, there was no difference between treatments for either parasitoid species. Pest reduction levels reached by the two parasitoids were caused by parasitism effects together with other parasitoid-induced mortality causes, which included host feeding and unsuccessful parasitism. The most preferred host under the conditions tested for both parasitoid species was S. oryzae. The parasitoid L. distinguendus decreased grain loss significantly more than A. calandrae thanks to a greater reduction of pest population. Product loss in terms of reduction of the medium (brown rice) weight was always higher in the control treatments. 相似文献

An eight-year-old, entire female Pekingese cross, weighing 3.8 kg, had been inappetent with fever, depression, abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhoea for seven days. The radiographic and ultrasonographic findings were consistent with glomerulonephritis, nephrolithiasis in both kidneys, bladder calculi and an accumulation of fluid in the left perinephric space. The clinical signs, together with the results of the diagnostic imaging, suggested that this fluid could be pus. A definitive diagnosis of a subcapsular abscess in the left kidney was established when this kidney was removed surgically. A histopathological examination of the kidney revealed a diffuse suppurative interstitial nephritis, membranous glomerulonephritis and an abscess invading the perinephric adipose tissue from the renal cortex. Twelve months after surgery the dog remains clinically stable, but owing to the disease of its remaining kidney its long-term prognosis is poor. 相似文献

Thirty-two dogs undergoing operations to repair a torn cranial cruciate ligament or a fractured long bone were randomly allocated to one of two treatment groups in a study on postoperative pain. Sixteen of the dogs were given 4 mg/kg carprofen and the other 16 were given 0.2 mg/kg meloxicam subcutaneously before the operation. The signs of pain shown by the animals were assessed for 24 hours on a visual analogue scale, a discontinuous scoring system, and a score based on five behavioural and physiological variables. The dogs' heart and respiratory rates and their mean arterial blood pressures were also measured non-invasively at each assessment. Blood samples were taken before the surgery and 24 hours after it, and the concentrations of urea and creatinine were measured in plasma. Both drugs were effective in relieving the signs of pain for up to 24 hours in all the dogs. There were no significant changes in the concentrations of urea and creatinine, and no adverse effects were reported during the postoperative period. 相似文献

A 12‐year‐old, male, fox terrier dog presented with an abnormal gait of the left pelvic limb. Computed tomography revealed a large, homogeneous, hypoattenuating, noncontrast enhancing mass within the left epaxial muscles that invaded the L5–6 vertebral canal and caused spinal cord compression. Imaging findings were consistent with an infiltrative lipoma. The mass was removed and a left hemilaminectomy was performed in the affected area. Histopathology confirmed the mass to be an infiltrative lipoma. The dog recovered and regained neurologic function within 2 weeks. Computed tomography assisted preoperative planning by characterizing the shape, size, and location of the mass. 相似文献

Brachial plexus avulsions commonly occur in cats due to traumatic injuries involving the shoulder. Ultrasound may be an effective method for detecting injured nerves. Additional applications may include characterization of brachial plexus neoplasms and guidance of anesthetic nerve blocks. Aims of this study were to describe ultrasonographic approaches and the normal appearance of this plexus and other major nerves of the thoracic limb in cats. Eight feline cadavers were used to determine anatomic landmarks, obtain cross‐sectional anatomic images of the target nerves, and compare these with ultrasound images. An ultrasonographic study was performed in five fresh feline cadavers to assess the brachial plexus and its major components at the levels of the axilla and proximal, middle and distal (lateral and medial approaches) humeral regions. Five healthy adult cats were recruited for an in vivo ultrasonographic study using the same protocol described for the cadaver ultrasonographic study. The roots of the brachial plexus appeared as a cluster of small, round hypoechoic structures surrounded by a hyperechoic rim in the axillary approach. The radialis, medianus, and ulnaris nerves were individually visualized on proximal and middle humeral approaches. The medianus and ulnaris nerves were easily identified on the medial aspect of the humerus in the distal approach. The superficial branch of radialis nerve was seen on the lateral aspect of the distal humerus approach. The nerves appeared as oval‐to‐round hypoechogenic structures with a hyperechogenic rim. Future studies are needed to compare findings from this study with those in cats with confirmed brachial plexus injuries or other lesions. 相似文献

Abstract Winter wheat was grown at five different experimental sites using various nutrient combinations of two nitrogen (N) and three calcium (Ca) doses. The three youngest leaves, including the flag leaf were sampled at anthesis together with the flag leaf post‐anthesis and the grain at final harvest. The leaves were weighed and their mineral nutrient contents analyzed and the grain was also weighed. Of the nine equations that were fitted the potential (log y versus log x) most consistently had the best correlation and, thus, best represents the relationships between leaf dry weights, while the inverse in both variables was best for estimating grain weight from leaf weight. The nutrient content of the leaves was related to leaf dry weight according to the following sequence of maximum R: ? (R = 0.703), potassium (K) (R = 0.580), Ca (R = 0.444), phosphorus (P) (R = 0.359), iron (Fe) (R = 0.291), and magnesium (Mg) (R = 0.290). The square‐root and the quadratic equations best reflected the maximum and minimum values for ? and K, respectively. Highly significant relationships between Ca and Mg, and leaf dry weight were less frequent. The leaf nutrients correlated with grain weight in the following order: Mg (R max = 0.521), ? (0.455), Ca (0.434), Fe (0.348), ? (0.346), ?n (0.339, and ? (0.323). Of these nutrients, only Ca affected grain weight according to a parabolic equation (quadratic or square‐root) while the rest were best fitted by logarithmic functions, both on X and Y or one variable separately and by a straight‐line in one instance. The square‐root and the quadratic permit the calculation of the optimum concentration of nutrients, and thus, leaf nutritional diagnosis. The flag leaf at anthesis gives the most opportunities for this. 相似文献
