This review discusses our current understanding of the growth and development of intramuscular fat and proposes a simple growth model to explain the accumulation of intramuscular fat in cattle. Potential effects of nutritional manipulation are discussed in relation to the proposed growth curve for intramuscular fat. The scope for nutritional control during both the pasture (or backgrounding) an...

BACKGROUND Intramuscular interferon beta-1a (IFNβ-1a), a multiple sclerosis (MS) therapy that has been commercially available for over a decade, provides a unique opportunity to retrospectively assess postmarketing data for evidence of malignancy risk, compared with relatively limited data available for more recently approved therapies. Postmarketing and claims data were analyzed to determine t...

Nicolausyndrome or embolia cutis medicamentosa is a rare complication of intramuscular injection of some drugs. This syndrome has been reported after injection of NSAIDS, corticosteroids and antibiotics.Here we report a 16-year-old boy who developed this syndrome after intramuscular injection of benzathine penicillin.

background and aim: the third stage of labour is one of the most troublesome stages of child delivery. the basic principle of the third stage management is administrating prophylactic uterotonics. however, the time of its administration varies in different hospitals. this study aimed to determine the effect of intramuscular oxytocin injection after emergence of the fetal anterior shoulder or pl...

The pharmacokinetic profile of sodium meclofenamate, a non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug, was determined in six pre-ruminant calves after intravenous and intramuscular administration at a dose of 2.2mg/kg of body weight. Meclofenamate concentrations were measured using a high performance liquid chromatography assay. The pharmacokinetics of sodium meclofenamate after intravenous and intramuscu...

intramuscular cavernous hemangiomas represent less than 1% of all hemangiomas. typical presentation is a soft-tissue mass and/or pain without cutaneous changes. whereas calcification of hemangiomas is common; ossification of these lesions is very rare. we describe a case of ossified intramuscular hemangioma of quadriceps presented with painless knee extension contracture and thigh mass.

Intramuscular fat (IMF) content affects the tenderness, juiciness, and flavor of pork. An increasing number of studies are focusing on the functions of microRNAs (miRs) during porcine intramuscular preadipocyte development. Previous studies have proved that miR-425-5p was enriched in porcine skeletal muscles and played important roles in multiple physiological processes; however, its functions ...
