Abomasal Displacement

Correction of left abomasal displacement by video laparoscopy. This article reviews the benefits of the laparoscopic abomasopexy used for correction and fixation of the left abomasal displacement in dairy cows. The first steps are similar to the conventional technique, with sedation, analgesia and antisepsis. Two small flank incisions were made, the first one is about 10 centimeters ventral to the lumbar transverse processes in the cranial aspect of the left paralumbar fossa, and the second one, more cranial than the other and is located 7 cm ventral to the transverse processes of the lumbar vertebrae in the left 11th intercostal space, these two are the entry points of instruments and optics. This technique allows us to shorten the surgical time, reducing the tissue exposure time, the possibility of intra and post-surgical infections and iatrogenic injuries. Therefore, we saw that the recovery time was shorter; and a quick return to production is guaranteed due to the low use of antibiotics.

Abomasal Displacement

Abomasal displacement (AD) to the left is a common disease in high-yielding dairy cows after parturition. In view of the previously reported changes in tissue neuropeptide concentrations in cows with AD, the primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of AD and breed on serum neuropeptide concentrations. For this purpose, blood samples of 33 German Holstein (GH) cows with AD, 36 healthy controls (GH), and 32 healthy German Fleckvieh (GF) cows were collected, and concentrations of substance P (SP), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), and interleukin1β (IL-1β) were measured via commercially available ELISA kits. To examine the effect of AD, we compared GH cows with and without AD and observed no significant effects of AD on SP, VIP, or Il-1 β concentrations. To evaluate the effect of breed, we compared healthy GH with healthy GF cows and detected markedly higher VIP serum levels in the healthy GF cows (p < 0.01). No significant differences in SP or IL-1β were detected. According to our results, there seems to be no effect of AD on the serum concentrations of SP, VIP, or IL-1 β. In contrast, there seems to be a breed difference concerning serum VIP concentrations.

Abomasal Displacement

Abomasal displacement presents topographic gastropathy, where this organ has changed its position, and there is simultaneous dilatation which can vary in intensity. The incidence of this disorder in herds of high-yield dairy cows varies to a great degree (1 to 18 %). Abomasal displacement was established in herds of East-Frisian cows in 1 to 3% animals, and in Holstein cow herds in 5 to 18 % animals. The most frequent abomasal displacement is to the left (88%). There is significant seasonal variation in the incidence of abomasal displacement. About two-thirds of cases of abomasal displacement are diagnosed from October until April. The disorder appears more frequently in cows with repeated lactations. It has been established that it appears after the first calving in 27.8% cases, after the second to fifth calving in 66.7% cases, and after the sixth and seventh calving in 5.5% of the cows. The response of endocrine pancreas B-cells for insulin secretion to hyperglycaemia caused by applying an excess-glucose test is reduced in cows with left abomasal displacement, and there is constant hyperglycaemia in cows with right abomasal displacement. The excess-glucose test indicates a disrupted function of the endocrine pancreas in diseased animals. It has been determined through examinations of Aml genotypes in Holstein cow herds in connection with the appearance of abomasal displacement, that the occurrence of this disorder cannot be attributed to a genetic predisposition.

Objectives The aim of this study was to establish the optimum dosage and timing of administration of atipamezole in cats undergoing general anaesthesia incorporating ketamine to provide the shortest recovery possible without unacceptably compromising recovery quality. Methods In total, 128 healthy male cats (age range 2–108 months, weight range 0.56–5.22 kg) admitted for castration were randomly allocated to groups of 32. Anaesthesia was induced with 60 mg/m2 ketamine, 180 µg/m2 buprenorphine, 3 mg/m2 midazolam and 600 µg/m2 medetomidine intramuscularly (IM). Cats received 600 µg/m2 (groups 1ATI20 and 1ATI40) or 1.5 mg/m2 (groups 2.5ATI20 and 2.5ATI40) atipamezole IM either 20 (groups 1ATI20 and 2.5ATI20) or 40 mins (groups 1ATI40 and 2.5ATI40) after the ‘quad’. Preparation time, surgical time, auricular temperature, times to sternal recumbency and first standing, and recovery quality score were recorded. Data were analysed using ANOVA, Kruskal–Wallis, Mann–Whitney U-tests and χ2 tests. Statistical significance was deemed to be P ⩽0.05. Results Groups did not differ significantly in preparation or surgical time. Auricular temperature decreased significantly over time ( P <0.01) but did not differ between atipamezole treatment groups. Time to sternal recumbency in group 2.5ATI20 (52.9 ± 22.3 mins) was faster than group 1ATI20 (65.7 ± 24.7 mins) ( P ⩽0.05), but there were no significant differences between other groups. Time to first standing and recovery quality scores did not differ significantly between groups. Minimal adverse effects were seen. Conclusions and relevance Atipamezole administration after 20 mins did not reduce recovery time but neither was recovery quality adversely affected compared with when it was administered after 40 mins, following datasheet recommendations with concurrent ketamine administration. The results of this study also suggest that an atipamezole:medetomidine dose ratio of 2.5:1 is more effective than 1:1 in reducing recovery time, regardless of timing of administration, although this only reached statistical significance for time to sternal recumbency when atipamezole was administered after 20 mins.

The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy and reliability of percutaneous fixation of minimally displaced scaphoid fractures using a customized three-dimensional (3-D)-printed guide with a conventional freehand method. A prospective cohort of ten patients underwent scaphoid fixation with the aid of a customized 3-D-printed guide. The final screw position, total surgery time (minutes) and fluoroscopy time (seconds) was compared with a retrospective cohort of ten patients who underwent fixation with a conventional technique. There were no differences in final screw position between both methods. The patients in which the 3-D guide was used had a surgery time reduction of 43% and a fluoroscopy time reduction of 52% compared with the control freehand group. The use of a customized 3-D-printed guide permits a fixation that is as accurate as the standard freehand technique, with reduction in surgical time and intraoperative radiation exposure.

ABSTRACT Background: Isolation of Brucellai is the gold standard in the laboratory diagnosis of brucellosis. As Brucellai is intracellular and the number of circulating bacteria is usually low, removal/dilution of antibacterial substances, concentration of bacteria and optimal culture conditions may enhance the rate of isolation. Aims and Objectives: The objective of the following study was to compare the lysis concentration (LC), clot culture and conventional Castaneda blood culture techniques for the isolation rate and recovery time in the diagnosis of human brucellosis. Materials and Methods: Blood cultures by LC, clot culture and conventional method were performed in 169 patients who had antibody titers ≥160 international units by the serum agglutination test. Results: Overall blood culture positivity was found to be 24.8%, 43.1% and 34.9% by conventional, LC and clot culture techniques in that order. The mean recovery time by LC and clot culture techniques was significantly less than conventional method, resulting in an overall difference of nearly 6 and 4 days respectively. Conclusions: For the isolation of Brucellai from blood, LC and clot culture techniques are better than the conventional technique.
