Vinten, Claire. "The development of clinical reasoning in veterinary students." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2016. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/33728/.

Full text
Abstract:
Clinical reasoning is the skill used when veterinary surgeons make a decision regarding the diagnosis, treatment plan or prognosis of a patient. Despite its necessity and ubiquity within clinical practice, very little is known about the development of clinical reasoning during undergraduate training. Even less is understood about how veterinary schools should be helping students improve this skill. The aim of the research presented within this thesis was to, firstly, examine the development of clinical reasoning ability within veterinary students and, secondly, to investigate possible methods

Abstract:
Veterinary Medicine does not have a history in the social sciences and is therefore a fascinating field of study. Despite the growth of education research in the veterinary schools, the social and relational aspects of veterinary training and practice are under-examined, and could have profound effects on the ability of students to make a successful transition into qualified work. This thesis explored the development of occupational identity in veterinary students and newly-qualified veterinary surgeons, using narrative interview techniques and organisational policy analysis.

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the question of how veterinary students learn to cope with uncertainty in professional practice. There is currently a lack of clarity in discussion of what constitutes effective coping with uncertainty in veterinary practice and indeed how this might be taught or assessed as part of the veterinary education process. This is despite wide recognition that managing uncertainty is central to practice in the health professions, reflected in the fact that the ability to cope with uncertainty is considered a “day one competency” for veterinary surgeons.

Abstract:
This case study, of veterinary education at Glasgow between 1949 and 2006, was undertaken to provide an illustrative account of learning and teaching practices over time. Ultimately the aim was to inform discussions on curriculum reshaping in undergraduate veterinary education at Glasgow. A questionnaire was distributed to 2360 alumni, 513 students and 50 teachers, to obtain quantitative data on the availability and perceived usefulness of different educational methods and technologies, analysed using SPSS. Qualitative data were sought principally through ten student focus groups and interview

This project set out to determine the importance of tick-borne protozoan and bacterial pathogens in Scottish livestock. The study comprised several aspects including a national survey of large animal veterinary surgeons, an appraisal of cases of tick-borne disease observed by Scottish Disease Surveillance Centres, the development of a novel assay to detect piroplasms and a targeted cross- sectional study of livestock and deer in the north of Scotland. A survey of the experiences of veterinary surgeons treating livestock in Scotland revealed cases of babesiosis (Babesia divergens) in cattle and

O'Reilly, Emily Louise. "Acute phase proteins and biomarkers for health in chickens." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2016. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/7428/.

Abstract:
Acute phase proteins (APPs) are proteins synthesised predominantly in the liver, whose plasma concentrations increase (positive APP) or decrease (negative APP) as a result of infection, inflammation, trauma and tissue injury. They also change as a result of the introduction of immunogens such as bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), turpentine and vaccination. While publications on APPs in chickens are numerous, the limited availability of anti-sera and commercial ELISAs has resulted in a lot of information on only a few APPs.

Abstract:
Physical inactivity is a major contributor to non-communicable diseases and many adults and children are insufficiently active to maintain good health. The proportion of children who meet the United Kingdom recommendations for physical activity (at least 60 minutes of moderate-vigorous intensity physical activity each day) has been reported to be as low as 3% for boys and 2% for girls. Systematic reviews on interventions to promote physical activity in childhood have shown that although physical activity is modifiable to some degree most interventions have had only modest and short-term impact

Equine fetlock region disease is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis of sesamoidean ligament, cartilage and subchondral bone injury has been obtained by clinical MRI. Low-field MRI provides images helpful in the investigation of MCPJ/MTPJ region pathology in horses in the clinical setting but the greater resolution of high and ultra-field MR images has the potential to aid interpretation through a better understanding of MRI anatomy.

Johne’s disease has also become strongly associated with human Crohn’s disease due to the similarity in symptoms and the presence of MAP in samples taken from Crohn’s disease patients. Currently there is not cure for Johne’s disease, therefore, routine testing and isolation or culling of diseased animals

Full text
Abstract:
Teladorsagia circumcincta is a common abomasal parasite of sheep in temperate regions and is one of the major causes of parasitic gastroenteritis (PGE) in growing lambs. Control of infection is achieved using anthelmintic drugs; however, this practice is rapidly becoming unsustainable due to widespread anthelmintic resistance within the T. circumcincta population. Sheep can acquire protective immunity against this parasite; immunity involves local and systemic antibodies and immune cells which can impair worm growth and fecundity and lead to expulsion of the parasites from the abomasum.

Abstract:
There is a delicate evolutionary balance between viruses and their hosts. The host has evolved the intrinsic, innate and adaptive immunity to fight viral infections. However, viruses have acquired several counteracting measures to evade host defences. Ovine Betaretroviruses, including the exogenous and pathogenic Jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus (JSRV) and the highly related endogenous enJSRVs are a unique model system to investigate virus-host interaction over long evolutionary periods. Sheep have co-opted some defective enJSRV loci to (i) counteract infection by exogenous viruses and likely (ii)

Abstract:
Worldwide, an estimated 9.1 billion birds may need to be killed on farm each year. As of January 2013 the use of manual cervical dislocation (MCD) as a killing method for poultry on-farm has been heavily restricted through new EU legislation (EC 1099/2009) on the Welfare of Animals at the Time of Killing, following reported welfare concerns. The method by which birds are killed on farm is crucial to poultry welfare on a large scale.
