In fact, the heart, liver, kidneys and so on may legally be removed from this living body for transplantation into another. Clearly, a uniquely indi- vidual human body without a functional brain is regarded as
Animals dying after a longer course of disease will be emaciated and icteric, with thin blood, pale kidneys, and enlarged liver. Pathogenesis. The protozoon is transmitted by the cattle fever ticks Boophilus annulatus, B. microplus, and B. decoloratus; these one-host ticks acquire the ...
In a few cases, rectal palpation in horses with ARF may reveal enlarged, painful kidneys. Enlargement can be confirmed by renal ultrasonography (US), which may also reveal perirenal edema, loss of detail of the corticomedullary junction, or dilation of renal pelves.77,78 However, subtle change...
Arthrocentesis or joint aspiration is typically performed on joints such as the knee, ankle, elbow, or hip. It is particularly useful when there is a need to determine the cause of joint swelling orpain. Arthrocentesis can be a valuable tool both for diagnosis and therapeutic relief in vari...
kidneys, spleen, liver, lungs, digestive tract, heart and mesenteric ganglia, and samples are taken for isolation of CHV on MDCK cells. The diagnosis of canine herpesvirosis is based on the death of the puppy and the presence of characteristic macroscopic lesions and is confirmed by a viral ...
When the urinary bladder is palpable, cystocentesis is the method of choice for urine collection, because this sample gives the best indication of what is occurring in the kidneys and bladder. The urinary bladder may be approached through the lateral body wall, as in a cat, with a 3-mL ...
C5a is a potent chemoattractant, and C5aR1 drives neutrophil and monocyte recruitment in several infectious and non-infectious settings.39,40,41,42,43,44,45 We reasoned that C5aR1 protects during systemic candidiasis by mediating phagocyte recruitment to the Candida-infected kidneys. Show abstract...
At euthanasia, underlying kidney tissue and the renal capsule area corresponding to where the autologous cells were implanted was removed, placed in EM fix and immediately processed as described previously [4]. Analysis of both kidneys from each cat revealed no differences in lysosomal storage when ...
crisis are the most common findings and include hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, dark and distended gallbladder, pale tissues, thin blood, scattered hemorrhages, and petechiation. Animals dying after longer course of disease will be emaciated and icteric with thin blood, pale kidneys, and enlarged ...
Liver, kidneys, spleen, and heart were collected for histopathological analysis. Buffered formalin (10%) was used to fix the samples followed by dehydration in alcohol and embedding in paraffin blocks. After obtaining 4 µm sections, they were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) [13]....
