Serum potassium levels in sigmoid volvulus.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the serum potassium concentrations in patients with sigmoid volvulus (SV), which is a rare large bowel obstruction. METHODS The records of 86 patients with SV were reviewed retrospectively, while the records of 41 patients diagnosed with obstructive

The effects of drugs on Onchocerca volvulus. 4. Trials of melarsonyl potassium.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effects of the arsenical drug melarsonyl potassium on Onchocerca volvulus were investigated in patients in Cameroon infected with the Cameroon forest and Sudan savanna strains of the parasite. Two intramuscular dosage schedules were tested: the first comprised 4 consecutive daily doses of 200 mg

Experiments on the chemoprophylaxis of Onchocerca volvulus infection.

Only registered users can translate articles

Previous work on monkeys and on human volunteers led to the development of a schedule of diethylcarbamazine dosage suitable for the chemoprophylaxis of loiasis. In several parts of Africa where this chemoprophylaxis is practised against Loa loa, infections with Onchocerca volvulus are also common.

Small-intestinal volvulus in cattle: 35 cases (1967-1992).

Only registered users can translate articles

Medical records of 35 cattle with small-intestinal volvulus were reviewed. Surgical correction was performed on 32 cattle, and 17 of these cattle were discharged from the hospital. Mean duration of clinical signs for survivors was not significantly different from that for nonsurvivors, and the most

[Prognostic indicators in cattle with right-sided displacement of the abomasum and abomasal volvulus].

Only registered users can translate articles

The records of 106 cases of right-sided displacement of the abomasum (RDA) and abomasal volvulus (AV) were reviewed. Pre- and postoperative heart rate (> or = 90 BPM), serum BUN (> or = 10 mmol/L), potassium (< or = 3.3 mmol/L) and chloride (< or = 85 mmol/L) were the best indicators for a

Clinicopathologic variables associated with hypokalemia in lactating dairy cows with abomasal displacement or volvulus.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To identify potential mechanisms for hypokalemia in dairy cows with left-displaced abomasum (LDA), right-displaced abomasum (RDA), or abomasal volvulus (AV). METHODS Retrospective analysis of clinicopathologic data from 2 convenience samples of cows. METHODS 112 lactating dairy cows with

[pH, sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphate and chloride in the rumen and abomasal contents of cows with abomasal displacement].

Only registered users can translate articles

Ruminal and abomasal contents were collected from cows with left abomasal displacement (L), right abomasal displacement (R-), or abomasal volvulus (R+), before the abomasum was corrected, as well as one and three days later, pH and concentrations of sodium (Na), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg),

Cross-sectional study of the association of abomasal displacement or volvulus with serum electrolyte and mineral concentrations in dairy cows.

Only registered users can translate articles

The objective of this study was to evaluate serum mineral and electrolyte concentrations at the time of on-farm diagnosis of left displaced abomasum, right displaced abomasum, or abomasal volvulus in dairy cows. Data were collected from 104 affected cows and 96 control cows matched with cases, based

An evaluation of the bovine -- Onchocerca gibsoni, Onchocerca gutturosa model as a tertiary screen for drugs against Onchocerca volvulus in man.

Only registered users can translate articles

In this trial suramin, diethylcarbamazine, trichlorphon, levamisole, mebendazole, melarsonyl potassiu, Hoechst 33258 and tinidazole were administered to cattle infected with O. gibsoni and O. gutturosa to determine the usefulness of this screen in predicting the effect of drugs in man against. O.

[A case of Bochdalek hernia in an adult with volvulus of the stomach and hypopotassemia].

Only registered users can translate articles

Gastric volvulus is a rare disease. We recently encountered a gastric volvulus associated with Bochdalek hernia and severe hypopotassemia. A 32-year-old woman experienced epigastric pain and recurrent vomiting. The changes of the electrocardiogram in this patient (K1.8mEq/l) were inverted T wave and

Simulated small intestinal volvulus in the anesthetized horse.

Only registered users can translate articles

Experimental closed loop small intestinal volvulus was studied in the anesthetized horse. Volvulus was simulated by ligation of the mesenterial veins to a segment of small intestine. Physical signs and hemodynamic, hematologic, clinical chemical, bacteriologic and peritoneal fluid values were

Risk factors for intestinal gangrene in children with small-bowel volvulus.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Pediatric small-bowel volvulus (SBV) is a surgical emergency, and early diagnosis is difficult. We analyzed the clinical manifestations, imaging findings, and laboratory parameters in children with SBV and attempted to determine the risk factors for bowel gangrene. METHODS Forty-nine

Glutamine-supported motility of adult filarial parasites in vitro and the effect of glutamine antimetabolites.

Only registered users can translate articles

The survival in culture of adult female Brugia pahangi, Acanthocheilonema viteae, and Onchocerca volvulus and adult male Onchocerca gibsoni was assessed by measuring parasite motility. Survival of all species was maximal in a nutritionally complex medium (RPMI-1640). All species survived for up to

[Congenital diaphragmatic hernia in an adult: case report of acute abdomen].

Only registered users can translate articles

Bochdalek diaphragmatic hernia usually begins during childhood, but may be an occasional finding even in adults. The treatment of choice is surgical repair to avoid herniated bowel complications. The operation often requires a combined approach consisting in thoracotomy and laparotomy. This is a
