Spontaneous external biliary fistula in a dog     

Kligman KC  Jehn CT  Davis KM  Taylor DP  Conway JA 《Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association》2007,231(6):919-923

CASE DESCRIPTION: A 10-year-old sexually intact female dog was examined because of a static, well-circumscribed subcutaneous mass and associated fistulous draining tract located along the right ventrolateral aspect of the thoracic body wall of 15 months' duration. CLINICAL FINDINGS: Results of computed tomography and fistulography confirmed the presence of the fistulous tract. Computed tomography also revealed a focal, hypodense region in the right ventral portion of the liver that was adjacent to but not clearly associated with the fistulous tract. TREATMENT AND OUTCOME: Surgical exploration of the tract revealed that it passed into the right hemithorax to the diaphragm; entered the right medial lobe of the liver; and terminated in a well-encapsulated, cystic liver lesion. The right medial liver lobe and all affected tissues were removed. Histologically, the liver lesion consisted of a fibrotic, dilated bile duct. The dilated bile duct and fistula were lined with biliary epithelium. On the basis of these findings, a diagnosis of spontaneous external biliary fistula was made. Five months after surgery, the dog was clinically normal. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: To the authors' knowledge, spontaneous external biliary fistula in a dog has not been reported in the veterinary medical literature. Despite the rarity of this condition, it should be considered in a dog with similar clinical findings. Clinical findings and results of appropriate diagnostic imaging procedures may provide valuable information in making this diagnosis and in planning surgical treatment.  相似文献

Efficacy of aluminum phosphide tablets to control Richardson’s ground squirrel (Spermophilus richardsonii) populations in southern Saskatchewan, Canada     

Gilbert Proulx  Neil MacKenzieKeith MacKenzie  Kara Walsh 《Crop Protection》2011,30(8):1039-1042

The objective of this study was to assess, using a capture-recapture program, the effectiveness of aluminum phosphide tablets for control of Richardson’s ground squirrels (Spermophilus richardsonii) in southern Saskatchewan grasslands, from April to July 2007-2009. Aluminum phosphide tablets were tested in study plots in moist or dry soil conditions, where burrow openings had either been marked with a flag (to ensure that all openings would be found and treated) before treatment or left unmarked. In five study plots with moist soil conditions and flagged burrow openings, the mean control level was 80.9 (SD = 6.3) %. In two study plots with dry soil conditions and flagged burrow openings, and one study with moist soil conditions and unflagged burrow openings, control levels were < 60%. It is recommended that aluminum phosphide tablets be used to control Richardson’s ground squirrels in relatively small areas (i.e., < 5 ha) with moist soil conditions and flagged burrow openings, or in specific sites where there are still high concentrations of ground squirrels after an initial treatment with poison food baits.  相似文献   

Echocardiographic,thoracic ultrasonographic,and CTA diagnosis of pericardial neoplasia in a dog     

Alice G N Morey  Kelly E Wiggen  Kara De New  James J Karnia 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》2023,64(1):E1-E5

A 12-year-old male neutered Yorkshire Terrier presented for coughing and respiratory distress. Transthoracic echocardiography initially misdiagnosed the patient with pericardial effusion; repeat echocardiography increased suspicion for neoplasia. A definitive diagnosis was not apparent. Findings on thoracic computed tomography and thoracic ultrasound were consistent with a diffusely thickened, heterogenous, hypoechoic soft tissue structure surrounding the heart. Fine needle aspirates were obtained using ultrasound guidance and routine cytology of the intrapericardial mass was consistent with neoplasia, with pericardial mesothelioma most likely. These novel findings highlight the importance of thoracic ultrasound and potential limitations of echocardiography in diagnosis of pericardial neoplasia.  相似文献   

CLIMATE AND SILVICULTURAL IMPLICATIONS IN MODIFYING STAND COMPOSITION IN MIXED FIR-PINE STANDS     

Ferhat Kara  John M. Lhotka 《Journal of Sustainable Forestry》2020,39(5):511-525

ABSTRACT

A growing concern exists over the decreasing proportion of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) trees in mixed Trojan fir (Abies nordmanniana subsp. equi-trojani [Asch. & Sint. Ex Boiss] Coode & Cullen)-Scots pine forests in northern Turkey. Given the changes in mean annual temperature and annual precipitation for the last 40 years in the region, understanding of the sensitivity of Trojan fir and Scots pine trees to changing climate seems to be critical so that better management strategies can be developed against the potential climate extremes of the future in the region. Moreover, our knowledge on the influence of current silvicultural methods on seedling density and growth in these forests is limited. Therefore, in this study, the growth response (i.e., radial growth) of Trojan fir and Scots pine trees to the changing climate were examined. In addition, the influence of current silvicultural practices on seedling growth and density in these forests was also monitored. Trojan fir appeared more sensitive to the climatic variables (i.e., temperature and precipitation) than Scots pine in the region. It was also found that the current silvicultural practices might favor Trojan fir over Scots pine in these forests. Natural dynamics and current silvicultural implications would benefit Trojan fir, however, given the species’ potential sensitivity to the changing climate, current silvicultural approaches can be modified to favor Scots pine, and to increase the resilience of these forests against climate extremes expected in the region’s future.  相似文献   

Harmonization ratio of post- to pre-anthesis durations by thermal times for durum wheat cultivars in a Mediterranean environment     

Ayd&#x;n Akkaya  Tevrican Dokuyucu  Rukiye Kara  Mevlut Akura 《European Journal of Agronomy》2006,24(4):404-408

The aims of this article were to calculate harmonization ratios (HR) of post- to pre-anthesis durations for 16 durum wheat cultivars by thermal times, to determine durum wheat cultivars having balanced vegetative period (VP) and grain filling period (GFP) for higher GY capacity and its possibility to be used as an adaptation and selection criteria for cultivars and to investigate relationships between HR and grain yield, phenological periods by the thermal times in a Mediterranean environment.

Experiments were carried out in randomized complete block design with four replications, for three successive years between 2000 and 2003 years, under the conditions of Kahramanmaras province, located in East-Mediterranean region of Turkey. In the research, phenological periods such as VP, GFP, days to maturity (DM) by the thermal times, GY were measured. HR values over thermal times were also calculated by the formula HR_tt = GFP_tt/VP_tt..

According to the results, cultivars were significantly different for VP_tt, GFP_tt, DM_tt by the thermal times and GY. Cultivars were also significantly different for HR. Harmonization ratio was determined as 0.512 for Fuatbey-2000 cv. which supplied the highest GY. On the other hand, the lowest HR_tt was obtained from Altar-84 STN cv. with 0.458 and its GY was also the lowest. Harmonization ratio was significantly and positively correlated with GY over the average results of 3 years. Significant correlations determined between GY and HR_tt showed that this HR_tt value might be considered as useful character on determination of wheat cultivars having balanced VP_tt and GFP_tt for higher GY. Thus, the varieties with the lowest HR_tt may be excluded from the nurseries, in the early generations of breeding works.  相似文献
