Sturgeon is one of the most important species of the Caspian Sea aquatics. Unfortunately, this species faces the threat of extinction today. This makes specific studies on any type of sturgeons more important than before. Studies like histological studies, radiology, and sonography, all require a complete understanding of the anatomy of this fish. Since pilot studies showed some misconceptions ...

The oral pharmacokinetics of diclofenac (DF) were evaluated in cattle by analyzing plasma concentration-time data after its intravenous and oral administration in order to propose the oral administration of DF as effective route to avoid long withdraw period. DF was intravenously and orally administered at 1 mg/kg to cattle using a crossover design with a 4-week washout period. Plasma concentra...

One of the false morel mushrooms, Gyromitra esculenta, was administered p.o. to Swiss mice that were 6 weeks old at the beginning of the experiment. The mushrooms were fed to the mice for 3 days and were followed by a semisynthetic diet for 4 days each week for life. The treatment induced tumors in the lungs, nasal cavity, blood vessels, forestomach, glandular stomach, cecum, and liver in the f...

Objetive. To determine the influence of corn oil on the volatile fatty acids (VFA) concentrations in the gastric juice in horses with phenylbutazone (PBZ) induced gastric ulcers and Correlate the gastroscopic findings with the VFA concentrations. Materials and methods. 15 horses were allotted in 3 groups. Group I (control) received placebo during first 6 days (induction period) and was treated ...

Blood from the glandular part of hamster gastric mucosa is drained by collecting venules, running from the subepithelial layer towards lamina muscularis mucosae. To visualise vessels involved in the venous outflow, hamsters were exposed to atropine and subjected to intravital ligation of portal vein, causing strong hyperaemia. Distribution of vessels and their connections were studied a) in tra...

Gastritis cystica polyposis (GCP) is a rare benign hyperplastic polypoid neoplasm that usually occurs on the gastric side of anastomoses in patients who have previously undergone gastroenterostomy surgery. Only few cases GCP been reported unoperated stomach. Here we present 73-year-old female investigation for altered bowel habits was found to polyp diagnosed as GCP. Both endoscopic and radiolo...

for the 2% diet). to protein in vivo (20, 21). lt is possible, therefore, that SO and BHA were carcinogenic in the forestomach via a similar "nongenotoxic" mechanism of action, i.e., the stimulation 01' cell division induced by cytotoxicity and regenerative hyperplasia. This mechanism has been postulated for various forestomach carcinogens (22). BHA was demonstrated to have a strong hyperplasio...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the accuracy of double contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (DCEUS) for assessing the Borrmann classification of advanced gastric carcinoma (AGC) preoperatively. Three hundred twenty nine patients with proved AGC were enrolled. DCEUS (intravenous microbubbles combined with combined with oral contrast-enhanced ultrasound) was performed preoperatively. Th...
