Endotoxic shock was induced in 5 ponies by intraperitoneal injections of 20, 40, 60, 80, and 80 micrograms of Escherichia coli endotoxin (LPS)/kg of body weight at 0, 6, 12, 18, and 24 hours, respectively. At 24 hours, the ponies also were given 20 micrograms of LPS/kg via catheter in the left ventricle of the heart. A 2nd group of 4 ponies was given 1.1 mg of flunixin meglumine (FM)/kg, IV, at 6, 12, 18, and 24 hours just before the corresponding LPS injection. Two hours after the 24-hour LPS injection, the ponies in both groups were anesthetized, the lungs were perfused with fixative, and portions of the pulmonary arteries and veins and right and left ventricles were prepared for scanning and transmission electron microscopy. In ponies that were given only LPS, some areas of pulmonary vascular endothelium appeared normal when compared with untreated controls, but other areas had disoriented endothelial cells or had varying amounts of sloughing, which ranged from focal areas of a few cells to large areas of denuded endothelium. Ponies treated with FM before LPS had less severe and less extensive endothelial cell damage. In both groups, leukocytes were attached to areas of the vessel wall; endothelial cell damage was greater in these regions. Administration of FM before LPS administration attenuated the LPS-induced endothelial cell damage. 相似文献

Bilateral subchondral bone cysts of the femoral condyles were diagnosed by conventional radiography in a 14 month old Appaloosa colt. Surgical debridement was performed, and over the next 18 months the appearance of the cysts was evaluated with radiography and bone scintigraphy. On the preoperative scintigrams, increased radiopharmaceutical uptake was associated with the cysts. Despite continued radiographic enlargement, the cysts did not demonstrate increased radiopharmaceutical uptake post-operatively. 相似文献

Twelve male neonatal calves (39 to 50 kg) were allotted to 3 groups of 4 calves each. All calves were anesthetized with halothane, and then Escherichia coli endotoxin was given intravenously (3 times) and intraperitoneally (3 times) during a 6-hour period. Group-1 calves were untreated, group-2 calves were pretreated with a low dose of flunixin meglumine (1.1 mg/kg of body weight), and group-3 calves were pretreated with a high dose of flunixin meglumine (4.4 mg/kg). In calves of group 1, the mean systemic arterial blood pressure (MABP) and cardiac output (CO) decreased, but pulmonary arterial pressure increased after the initial intravenous and intraperitoneal injections of endotoxin. In calves of this group, these changes were accompanied by increased plasma thromboxane B2 (TxB2) concentration. During this period, increased plasma TxB2 concentration or hemodynamic changes were not detected in calves of groups 2 and 3. Only calves of group 1 had altered hemodynamics early in the experiment; however, after 6 hours, calves of all 3 groups had similarly decreased CO and MABP. In calves of the untreated group, plasma 6-keto-prostaglandin (PG)F1 alpha concentration increased steadily from the beginning of the experiment until 3 hours later. The CO and MABP were low at the time when serum 6-keto-PGF1 alpha concentration was high; however, these 2 measurements also were low in treated calves who did not have correspondingly high plasma 6-keto-PGF1 alpha concentration. Regional blood flow analysis did not reveal correlations between prostanoid concentrations and altered blood flow to selected tissues.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Umbilical cord remnant infections in foals: 16 cases (1975-1985) 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Infection of the umbilical cord remnants was diagnosed in 16 foals. The infection was found in the urachus alone in 3 foals, the umbilical arteries in 2 foals, the urachus and umbilical arteries in 3 foals, the urachus and umbilical vein in 2 foals, and the urachus, umbilical vein, and umbilical arteries in 2 foals. The specific location of the infection was not determined in 4 foals. Eleven foals developed an acquired patent urachus between 4 and 16 days of age. Seven foals had one or more joints infected. All foals with umbilical cord remnant infections were treated with orally, intramuscularly, or intravenously administered antibiotics and 9 foals had the umbilical cord remnants excised. Nine foals survived, 6 of which had had excision of the infected remnants. Only 2 foals with joint infections survived. 相似文献

Certain in vitro culture conditions were determined for equine endothelial cells obtained from the aorta and pulmonary arteries. Cells were enzymatically isolated from the vessel lumen, using clostridial collagenase (2.5 mg/ml of Hanks's balanced salt solution) incubated at 37 C for 30 minutes. Cells were cultured in alpha minimum essential medium supplemented with plasma-derived and nonplasma-derived bovine fetal sera, endothelial cell-growth supplement, heparin, and antibiotics. Smooth muscle cell growth was not inhibited with nonplasma-derived animal sera, plasma-derived equine serum, or heparin. Heparin and a serum replacement were toxic to the cells used in the present study. Statistically significant differences were not found between the various media supplements. 相似文献

Major surgery for wounds of the foot, compared with other parts of the body, requires a more detailed preparation and a more persistent aftercare. To approach severe hoof wounds with a routine applicable to drainage of a subsolar abscess is doomed to failure! Yet, in dealing with referral cases of hoof wounds, particularly those that have become chronic, the author has observed that the principles have been ignored and/or the routines inadequate. The hoof has a suitable capacity to heal, with complete reformation of hoof structures, if a healing environment is maintained for a long enough period of time. For severe wounds, such time must be measured in months. A lack of attentiveness to the principles of hoof wound care and impatience during convalescence are the reasons for persistent lameness or for the formation of chronic hoof defects. The amount of hoof loss or the presence of distal phalangeal and/or deep digital flexor tendon exposure are not limiting factors to a successful outcome. Also, the initial assessment of the wound may not present an accurate picture of the eventual outcome. Both the veterinarian and the client may need to be committed to the horse's care for weeks or months before the final result is apparent; however, experience and faithful commitment help to avoid misjudgments in the selection of cases for follow-through. After healing, the resultant hoof frequently has far less functional or cosmetic impairment than might seem apparent at the outset. Most hoof wounds respond to proper therapy and recover without a hoof wall defect. The time lapse between injury and definitive care is critical. The amount of hoof loss and the exposure of deep foot structures are less critical. Such cases should be handled as a high priority, if not on an emergency basis. Prolonged delay is to be feared; contamination becomes infection, which extends, over time, to deeper, vital structures of the foot, with an unfavorable impact on the prognosis. Deep, penetrating wounds that invade the podotrochlea require early, even emergency, attention in order to avoid permanent debility, mortality, or euthanasia. 相似文献

Hereditary junctional mechanobullous disease in a foal 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Mechanobullous disease was diagnosed in a male Belgian foal that had sloughed hooves at 30 hours and at 6 and 12 days of age. Histologic and electron microscopic studies disclosed that lesions were the result of separation of the basal epithelial cell layer from the lamina densa of the basement membrane zone along the lamina lucida. Results of immunofluorescence on tissue specimens were negative for immunoglobulin deposition. The breeding history of the foal's dam indicated that the foal was produced from breeding of the mare to its full sibling stallion. This same mare had produced a female foal, sired by a different stallion, which also had sloughed hooves during the first 2 weeks of life and had similar histologic and electron microscopic changes. This newly recognized disease of horses most closely resembles junctional-type epidermolysis bullosa described in human beings. 相似文献

Nine horses with heterotopic polyodontia, examined at Purdue University since 1969, were treated surgically and had a favorable outcome. Six of the horses had received prior medical or surgical treatment, but without success. An understanding of the congenital nature of the problem contributed to an accurate diagnosis in each case. General anesthesia, aseptic technique, removal of all aberrant tissue, and wound suture for primary healing appeared to be essential for preserving ear function and obtaining an effective treatment. 相似文献
