Abstract:

The present article is an attempt to look at the human-animal relationship in selected stories from T. Coraghessan Boyle’s two collections: Tooth and Claw (2006) and Wild Child (2010). In “Thirteen Hundred Rats,” “Tooth and Claw” and “Admiral” Boyle ponders on human motivations behind such controversial contemporary practices as keeping exotic pets, hoarding animals and cloning dogs. The stories focus on the dark side of pet-keeping, rarely touched upon in literary representations of this widespread social practice. Boyle seems to doubt the sincerity of human devotion to animal companions, pre

Cultures from the cerebrospinal fluid and a swab of the left ear revealed Gram-negative coccobacillus identified asP multocida. The organism was sensitive to ceftriaxone, ampicillin and penicillin, and a 14-day course of intravenous penicillin was used as definitive treatment,

Abstract:

Rabies is a viral illness that can be prevented but is lethal. It can spread to humans and pets if they are bitten or scratched by a rabid animal. In many other countries, dogs still carry the rabies virus, and dog bites are the leading cause of rabies-related deaths in humans worldwide. The rabies virus affects the central nervous system, damaging the brain and eventually causing death. Rabies is one of the most dangerous and well-known zoonotic diseases, occurring in warm-blooded animals. Symptoms include unusual behavior, nervousness, impaired consciousness, ascending paralysis, and death.

Abstract:

Managing the risk of injury or illness is an important consideration when keeping pets. This risk can be minimized if pets are monitored on a regular basis, but this can be difficult and time-consuming. However, because only the external behavior of the animal can be observed and the internal condition cannot be assessed, the animal’s state can easily be misjudged. Additionally, although some systems use heartbeat measurement to determine a state of tension, or use rest to assess the internal state, because an increase in heart rate can also occur as a result of exercise, it is desirable to us

Abstract:

In 1953, Silver et al1 described a syndrome of short stature and low birth weight with hemihypertrophy and abnormal sexual development. Independently, in 1954, Russell2 described a condition with similar findings, but his description emphasized disproportionately short arms, maternal difficulty during pregnancy, and craniofacial dysostosis. These two descriptions are now accepted as a continuum of the same entity, termed the Silver-Russell syndrome. A hallmark of the syndrome is its extreme clinical diversity. The findings most commonly seen in children with Silver-Russell syndrome are summari

Abstract:

Cysticercosis is widely endemic in Latin America, Asia, and Africa. The incidence of cysticercosis has been increasing in the United States during the last decade.1 Although an infection still seen primarily in immigrants, it has been reported in increasing numbers in individuals who have close contact with persons who have resided in endemic areas.2 Only 6 cases of cysticercosis in children born in the United States have been reported; in 3 of these cases, the parents were from or had traveled to an endemic area and Taenia ova were recovered from the stools of the parent(s).1,3-6 Because of t

Abstract:

The Turner syndrome is a frequently occurring chromosomal syndrome. It is characterized by X monosomy, mosaicism 45X/46XX, partial deletion of X chromosome, and various rearrangements of X chromosome, leading to several clinical features and congenital anomalies: short stature, webbing of the neck (pterygium colli), nuchal cystic hygroma, hypogonadism, with absent ovarian tissue, and renal anomalies.1 Congenital heart defects occur often in the Turner syndrome1,2; there is a high prevalence of coarctation of the aorta3-5 and bicuspid aortic valve6; ventricular septal defects, atrial septal def

Abstract:

Eight small, premature infants developed an unusual symptom complex of pulmonary deterioration, thrombocytopenia, liver failure, ascites, and renal failure. five infants died; the health of the other three infants improved and they were discharged from the hospital. This unusual syndrome occurred after introduction of a new intravenous vitamin E product (E-Ferol, α-tocopherol acetate) for routine use in the intensive care nursery. Even though no definite conclusion was reached as to its cause, the administration of this intravenous vitamin E product appears to be a significant risk factor.

Abstract:

The Levy-Hollister syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by lacrimal malformations, simple cup-shaped ears, hearing loss, hypodontia and enamel dysplasia, and upper limb malformations. Renal anomalies have been noted variably. Two families with this disorder have been described previously. Recently, a third family with the Levy-Hollister syndrome was evaluated. Unusual features present in this family included bilateral nasolacrimal duct fistulas, radial aplasia, and unusual dermal ridge patterns. Early recognition of this disorder should prompt investigation for renal anomal

Abstract:

Composition of anacardic acids (phenolic acids known to be associated with small pest resistance in Pelargonium ×hortorum) was examined in 13 diploid and 25 tetraploid cultivars by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The presence of an unusual desaturation (omega (ω)-5) in the alkyl tail of anacardic acids present only in glandular trichome exudate of pest-resistant diploid inbred lines had previously been associated with a sticky-trap pest-resistance phenomenon. In this study, we examine Pelargonium cultivars for variability in anacardic acid composition to assess the distribution

The objective was to clarify the factors influencing post-defoliation fruit retention influenced by C. dubiae in flooded areas. Four treatments were applied: control (T1), bottle trap (T2), adhesive tape trap (T3), and foliar fertilization (T4). The research was conducted at a camu-camu plot on the Amazon River banks. As an additional control, plants at a highland plot were evaluated. Data on the retention of flowers

Abstract:

Many mistletoe species are pests in agricultural and forest ecosystems throughout the world. Mistletoes are unusual “weeds” as they are generally endemic to areas where they achieve pest status and, therefore, classical biological control and broad-scale herbicidal control are usually impractical. In North American coniferous forests, dwarf mistletoe ( Arceuthobium spp.) infection results in major commercial losses and poses a public liability in recreation settings. Hyperparasitic fungi have potential as biological control agents of dwarf mistletoe, including species which attack shoots, berr

Abstract Use of systemic insecticides that can be injected either into the root system or trunk of woody plants provides several potential advantages, notably in control of drift during application. Recently, new classes of insecticides with systemic activity have been developed, which may supplant the organophosphate and carbamate systemic insecticides that have previously been available. To evaluate their potential to control insects affecting shade trees, studies were conducted using imidacloprid and abamectin on elm. Soil injections of imidacloprid appeared particularly effective, controll

Quantitative comparison of tumor types may reveal unusual cancer frequencies, providing directions for research and generation of hypotheses of cancer causation in a specific area and identification of risk factors.
