The weather and vast areas of crop fields along with housing premises of Bangladesh are suitable for pigeon farming. The experiment was conducted to evaluate the characteristics of eggs and serum electrolyte concentration of Gola, Giribaz and Ghiachundi pigeon squabs. Three pairs of each breed were reared in the cage with commercial feed and water. After laying eggs, the length and width of eggs were recorded. After hatching of eggs, eggshell thickness was recorded. The thickness of the eggshell was 0.15±0.01 mm, 0.15±0.01 mm, 0.15±0.00 mm for Gola, Giribaz and Ghiachundi breeds respectively. The body weights of the squabs were recorded at 7th and 45th day. The squabs were sacrificed on 45th day and the blood sample was collected and serum sodium, potassium, calcium and phosphorus concentration were measured by using appropriate analytical techniques. Serum sodium, potassium, calcium and phosphorus were: 102.93±15.95 (mmol/L), 11.18±2.19 (mmol/L), 6.20±1.11 (mmol/L), 4.53±0.45 (mmol/L) for Gola breed; 101.48±2.12 (mmol/L), 12.15±0.96 (mmol/L), 5.65±1.09 (mmol/L), 4.53±0.36 (mmol/L) for Giribaz breed and 95.18±6.71 (mmol/L), 11.99±0.91 (mmol/L), 5.09±0.75(mmol/L), 4.81±0.24 (mmol/L) for Ghiachundi breed respectively. A positive correlation has been found between thickness of eggshell and phosphorus while there is a negative correlation with calcium for Gola breed; both have been found insignificant for Giribaz breed and only calcium has been found significant for Ghiachundi breed. A strong correlation between the final body weight of the squab and K for the Gola breed; between the final body weight of the squab and Ca, P, K for Giribaz breed and between the final body weight of the squab and Ca, Na, K have been found. It could be concluded that serum electrolytes having an influential effect on egg characteristics and body weight of corresponding pigeon breed. Asian J. Med. Biol. Res. 2021, 7 (2), 107-112

Trigger Zone

Latencies for vomiting following bilateral nephrectomy in control dogs, after gut denervation by transthoracic vagotomy and spinal cord transection at T4, and after ineffective ablation of the CT zone, were all within a range of 16–48 hours. By contrast, in dogs with effective lesions of the CT zone, the latency for vomiting after nephrectomy was prolonged to a range of 54–147 hours and two dogs died after 5 and 6 days, respectively, without vomiting. Chlorpromazine and morphine did not prolong the latency for vomiting after nephrectomy. Guanidine hydrochloride, 75 mg/kg i.v., evoked vomiting in all of seven control dogs, but only in one of nine dogs with effective lesions of the CT zone. Except for a more rapid decline of serum chloride in control dogs, serum sodium, potassium, bicarbonate and blood urea nitrogen followed the same pattern after nephrectomy in control and CT-zone ablated dogs.

Electrolyte Abnormalities

Background: Perinatal asphyxia is the most common cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality in worldwide. It accounts for 23% of all neonatal deaths. Electrolyte abnormalities are more common in the immediate post asphyxiated period and influence neonatal the outcome effectively. Aim of this study was to measure the serum sodium, potassium and calcium levels in immediate postnatal period of asphyxiated newborns and assess the correlation with different degree of birth asphyxia.Methods: The serum sodium, potassium and calcium levels were measured in asphyxiated newborns in the early post-natal period. Both intramural and extramural newborns were included irrespective of their mode of delivery but according to the Apgar score. The measured electrolyte values were compared with the different severity of asphyxia. Results: Out of 100 newborns 53 had hyponatremia, 10 had hyperkalemia and 3 had hypocalcemia. The serum sodium and potassium levels showed significant P value (<0.00) with the different degree of both asphyxia but calcium levels were not significant (p valve = 0.06). There was a negative linear correlation with sodium and calcium levels and positive correlation with the serum potassium levels.Conclusions: Hyponatremia was significant in all stages of birth asphyxia, hyperkalemia was significant with increased severity of birth asphyxia and hypocalcemia was only weakly significant even in severe birth asphyxia.

ABSTRACT A patient previously described by the present authors as having selective hypoaldosteronism has been studied more extensively with special reference to the effect of aldosterone. Additional evidence has also been obtained in support of the original diagnosis of selective hypoaldosteronism. With the patient on a constant sodium intake, aldosterone intramuscularly or intravenously in a dose of 500 to 1000 μg a day was followed by retention of sodium and chloride, gain in body weight, increase in systolic blood pressure, and a rise in the serum sodium. Potassium excretion was increased throughout the period of aldosterone administration. The serum potassium showed a slight decrease. Similar effects were noted on administration of fluorohydrocortisone.
