The Impact

Medicinal plants are insufficiently studied and almost endless. The use of phytomedication enables reduce the impact of xenobiotics on animals organism through the natural origin of active compounds and associated and auxiliary substances smoothing the basic action and prevent the manifestation of side effects. One of such plants the possibility of using in veterinary practice is still insufficiently studied is mock–orange. Considering on the important role of phenolic compounds in the metabolic regulation of plant and diversity of impact of these substances on organism of animals and humans, in leaves of mock–oranges different cultivar was identified the content of phenolic secondary metabolites to identify the prospects for their further using in veterinary medicine. The qualitative reaction with the Wilson reagent, solution of iron (III) chloride and by cyanidin reaction in extracts from mock–orange leaves was established the presence of phenolic compounds. Further phytochemical investigations established that the content of phenols in the investigated extracts is between 33.0 ± 0.48 to 107.1 ± 0.91 mg/g (in Philadelphus L. 'Avalanche'). The content of flavonoids in alcohol extracts from leaves of different species of mock–oranges varies from 5.3 ± 0.41 to 10.6 ± 0.41 mg/g. Greatest quantity of flavonoids at relatively of low content of phenols contained in the preparation from leaves of Philadelphus coronaries 'Nana '(mock–orange dwarf), the use of which, along with Philadelphus L. 'Avalanche' can be perspective in medical and veterinary practice, considering on the high concentration of phenols and flavonoids and coumarins in these mock–oranges breed.

The editorial goals of the Journal of Marketing are (1) to advance the science and practice of marketing and (2) to serve as a bridge between the scholarly and the practical realms, each of which has a vital stake in what is happening on the other side. The main vehicle upon which the Journal of Marketing relies for achieving these goals is the publication of full-length articles that are grounded in scholarly research. However, two other sections of the Journal, the Literature Review and the Book Reviews, also play a vital role in fulfilling its editorial goals. The former section informs JM readers about developments that have appeared in related journals, whereas the latter focuses on providing critical reviews of influential books. The following editorial (1) reviews the role of books and book reviews in the knowledge dissemination process, (2) details the role of the Book Reviews, and (3) offers some guidelines for book reviewers.

At the request of the Main Commission of the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP), Task Group 107 (TG107) was set up to consider the issue of radiological protection of the patient in veterinary medicine. TG107, who authored this article, brought together information relating to the use of diagnostic imaging and radiation oncology in veterinary medicine. A number of specific areas were identified that appeared to be appropriate for attention by ICRP. These included the use of dose quantities and units, the need for re-evaluation of stochastic and deterministic risks from ionising radiation in animals, and the growing use of imaging and therapeutic equipment for animals that is little different from that available to humans. TG107 unanimously recommended that it was both appropriate and timely for ICRP to consider and advise on these issues, and the Main Commission agreed. This paper summarises the findings of TG107.

This study highlights the possible exchange of parasites between domestic and wild birds. Ectoparasites were collected from domestic birds in three residential areas (Wurukum, North Bank and Logo II) and from wild birds in the zoological garden and Mu forest from August – November 2013. A total of 500 domestic birds (chicken, ducks, turkeys, and pigeons) were randomly sampled from thirty (30) households while a total of 127 wild birds were sampled from the Zoological Garden and Mu Forest. The dust-ruffling method was used to pick ectoparasites from birds. A total of 394 (78.8%) of the 500 domestic birds were infested with 689 ectoparasites. Lice had the highest prevalence of 84.6%, while ticks, mites, and fleas had a prevalence of 3.3%, 7.7%, and 4.4 % respectively. For the wild birds, a total of 80 (63.0%) out of the 127 birds were infested with 674 ectoparasites. Lice also had the highest prevalence of 66.0%, while ticks, mites, and fleas had a prevalence of 4.2%, 13.1%, and 16.8% respectively. Out of the 17 ectoparasite species encountered, six (6) were found in both wild birds and domestic birds. Predominant species of ectoparasites infesting both domestic and wild birds are lice (Lipeurus caponis), mites (Dermanyssus gallinea) fleas (Echidnophaga species) and ticks (Argas persicus). Integration between ecology and veterinary medicine will allow a better understanding of population dynamics of ticks and other ectoparasites as they constantly co-infest avian populations. As long as the role of wild birds acting as reservoirs for the infestation of domestic birds is underestimated, efforts at preventing and controlling ectoparasites of domestic birds and poultry diseases may be a futile venture.

Wildlife conservation efforts are increasingly faced with declining, overcrowded or fragmented populations, environmental contamination, and the introduction of new species of either competitors or pathogens. These efforts are coming under increased public scrutiny in their attempt to balance human social and economic needs with those of wildlife. The integration of veterinary medicine as part of a multidisciplinary approach to conservation can assist in the successful planning, implementation and evaluation of conservation projects. Beyond the role of immobilizing animals, veterinarians can contribute to assessing and monitoring the health of wild populations, and can train others in modern approaches to working with and caring for wildlife.

Human And Animal Diseases

Regenerative medicine is a dynamically developing field of human and veterinary medicine. The animal model was most commonly used for mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) treatment in experimental and preclinical studies with a satisfactory therapeutic effect. Year by year, the need for alternative treatments in veterinary medicine is increasing, and other applications for promising MSCs and their biological derivatives are constantly being sought. There is also an increase in demand for other methods of treating disease states, of which the classical treatment methods did not bring the desired results. Cell therapy can be a realistic option for treating human and animal diseases in the near future and therefore additional research is needed to optimize cell origins, numbers, or application methods in order to standardize the treatment process and assess its effects. The aim of the following work was to summarize available knowledge about stem cells in veterinary medicine and their possible application in the treatment of chosen musculoskeletal disorders in dogs and horses.
