Abstract
During laparoscopic abdominal hernia repair (LAHR) there is a discrepancy in relative position of mesh and fixation points during the procedure (while abdominal cavity is distended with gas) and afterwards. Therefore, after the surgery the prosthesis becomes corrugated, and tension d...

Abstract
A 5.5-y-old spayed female ferret (Mustela putorius furo) with a history of adrenal disease, respiratory disease, and chronic obesity was evaluated for progressive lethargy and ataxia, diminished appetite, and possible polyuria and polydipsia. Physical examination revealed obesity, le...

Abstract
Growth hormone (GH), a hormone originating from the anterior pituitary gland, is an important regulator of metabolism and body composition. Low GH secretion is associated with features of the metabolic syndrome, in particular increased visceral body fat and decreased lean body mass. It has been show...

We specifically focus on the mechanisms and consequences of oxidative-modifications of mitochondrial proteins, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction. We briefly describe a method to systematically identify oxidatively-modified mitochondrial proteins in control and MDMA-exposed rats by using biotin-N-...

Abstract
We address this apparent paradox, highlighting two factors that predict benefits for compliant gaits: (i) minimizing cost of work associated with bouncing viscera; and (ii) leg control for robust stability in uneven terrain. We show that consideration of the effects of bouncing viscera predicts an e...

Abstract
A total of 228 salmonids (90 Oncorhynchus mykiss, 48 Oncorhynchus kisutch, and 90 Salmo salar) from 8 intensive aquaculture centers in the south of Chile were examined for endohelminths parasites between December 2008 and May 2009. The body cavities of 2 O. mykiss were infected by Diphyllobothrium s...

Abstract
In the mouse, the Otx2 gene has been shown to play essential roles in the visceral endoderm during anterior-posterior axis formation and head induction. While these are primary processes in vertebrate embryogenesis, the visceral endoderm is a tissue unique to mammals. Two enhancers (VE and CM) have...

CMV infection is a major cause of organ disease and rejection in the early period after transplantation. EBV infection in adult recipients must be considered also in the late period, particularly in association with severe immunosuppression. Because HHV-6 infection occurs earlier than CMV/EBV, it ma...
