Observations and analysis of risk factors for GDV in a single institution: a case-control study

Abstract:

Objective

To evaluate/ determine the risk factors for dogs presented with Gastric Dilation- Volvulus (GDV) to a referral veterinary centre and to compare the results with those currently reported in veterinary literature.

Materials and Methods

The observational case-control study comprised a population of 215 dogs that attended the referral centre between 2000 and 2018. Medical records were searched for GDV and those matching the criteria were manually reviewed. A questionnaire was completed by the owners of the dogs involved in the study (both case and control populations) in order to gain further information that could be considered relevant to GDVs. In particular, information included the dogs’ behaviour and the dogs daily activities.

With use of an inbreeding factor are received the discrete equation for a family tree and differential equation for a population. The numerical solution of the differential equation for a population was found and analyzed at various values of the inbreeding factor. Migration of inbred population is investigated in view of natural selection. It was shown that velocity of migration falls with increase of the inbreeding factor. Interrelation of the recessive allele frequency at woman for a migrating population with inbreeding factor and standard parameter of selection was found.</p> </abstract>...</p> <a class="btn btn-primary blue-btn text-uppercase my-4" href="https://openaccesspub.org/genetic-engineering/article/1275">Read Article</a> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-6 mb-3 aos-item aos-init " data-aos="fade-up"> <!-- child-div --> <div class="article-section p-3"> <h4 class="article-title title-border pb-3"> Abelmoschus Esculentus (Moench.)

Previous studies suggested that gluten could influence the severity and frequency of FM symptoms. This work aimed to assess the impact of a gluten-free diet (GFD) in the symptoms and severity of this disease. Fourteen patients with previous FM diagnosis were kept on a gluten-free diet for eight weeks (Phase 1). After that, they were held on the gluten-free diet and received capsules of isolated rice protein (placebo) for seven days, followed by capsules containing 8.4g/day vital gluten for additional seven days (Phase 2). Questionnaires evaluating the number and severity of FM symptoms, the impact of FM on daily routine as well as inflammatory blood markers were assessed in each phase. Results showed that after eight weeks of GFD, we observed a reduction in the impact of FM on daily routine and number of symptoms and sensitive points. However, a seven days challenge ...</p> <a class="btn btn-primary blue-btn text-uppercase my-4" href="https://openaccesspub.org/international-journal-of-nutrition/article/1271">Read Article</a> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-6 mb-3 aos-item aos-init " data-aos="fade-up"> <!-- child-div --> <div class="article-section p-3"> <h4 class="article-title title-border pb-3"> The Fermi-Pasta-Ulam Quantum Recurrence in The Dynamics of an Elementary Physical Vacuum Cell and The Problem of its Polarization </h4> <h4 class="article-title fw-700">Abstract:</h4> <p><abstract> <p>A model of a Quantum recurrence in the dynamics of an elementary physical vacuum cell within the framework of four coupled Shrodinger equations has been suggested. The model of an elementary vacuum cell shows that a Quantum recurrence which represents the dynamics of virtual transformations in the cell, qualitatively differs from that of Poincare and the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam. Whereas these recurrences develop in time or space, the Quantum recurrence develops in a sequence of Fourier images represented by non exponentially separating functions. The sequence experiences random energy additions but no exponential separation occurs. The Quantum recurrence can be defined as the most frequent array of Fourier images that appear in a certain quantum system during a period of its observation. Different scenarios of the Fourier images sequences interpreted as bosons (electron and positron) and fermions (photons) apearing in the solutions of the model demonstrate that during so...</p> <a class="btn btn-primary blue-btn text-uppercase my-4" href="https://openaccesspub.org/energy-conservation/article/1269">Read Article</a> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-6 mb-3 aos-item aos-init " data-aos="fade-up"> <!-- child-div --> <div class="article-section p-3"> <h4 class="article-title title-border pb-3"> Food Pyramid - The Principles of a Balanced Diet</h4> <h4 class="article-title fw-700">Abstract:</h4> <p><abstract> <p>The need to understand the relation of man to food, determines the existence of appropriate behavior as well as an attitude in accordance with the modalities that determine human development and evolution, under this structural aspect.
