ABSTRACT
O objetivo do presente trabalho foi relatar a eficácia do fluralaner no tratamento da demodicidose juvenil generalizada canina. Dois caninos, apresentando dois e três meses de idade, com diagnóstico clínico e parasitológico de demodicidose generalizada, foram tratados com administração única de fluralaner, na dose recomendada em bula pelo fabricante. Além disso, foi realizada a terapia adjuvante à base de xampu de peróxido de benzoíla e domperidona. Observou-se uma resposta terapêutica satisfatória, com repilação completa ao 30º dia após a administração do fármaco. Para cada paciente, foi realizado exame parasitológico do raspado cutâneo aos 75 e 90 dias seguintes ao início do tratamento, e todos foram negativos. Tendo em vista a elevada eficácia do tratamento proposto, sugere-se a inclusão do fluralaner nos protocolos terapêuticos destinados à demodicidose canina, particularmente nos pacientes pediátricos e com a forma generalizada da doença.(AU)
The aim of the present study was to report the efficiency of fluralaner on the treatment of two cases of canine generalized juvenile demodicosis. Two puppies, aging two and three months old, with the clinic and parasitological diagnosis of generalized demodicosis were treated with single administration of fluralaner. according to the dose recommended by the responsible laboratory. Additionally, adjuvant therapy was applied using benzoyl peroxide shampoo and domperidone. A satisfactory therapeutic response was observed, and complete repilation was present at the 30th day after drug administration. For each patient, at the 75th and 90th day after the treatment began, skin scrapings were performed in order to investigate the presence of Demodex sp; and all were negative. Considering the high efficiency of the treatment used, we suggest the inclusion of fluralaner on the therapeutic protocol for canine demodicosis, particularly in pediatric patients and with the generalized form of the disease.(AU)

The kinetics of gas production and in vitro ruminal degradation of diets contained replacement of soybean meal (SBM) by detoxicated castorbean meal (DCBM) (0, 15, 30 and 45% of substitution) were evaluated in this study. Values of gas production of non-fibrous carbohydrates (Vf1), fibrous carbohydrates (Vf2) and total carbohydrates (V) showed quadratic behavior, and by observation of equations can be obtained inclusions of 25% the V and Vf1 obtained maximum values of 174.7 and 237.8 ml gas / g DM, respectively. The potential degradability (PD) and effective degradability (ED) of dry matter showed quadratic behavior and by observation of equations can be perceive that up to 18.0% there was an increase in the values of PD and ED that obtained maximum values of 93.7% and 55.7%, respectively. The replacement of SBM by DCBM from 15 to 30% increased the kinetics of gas production and rumen degradation.(AU)

The aim of this project is to determine the dimensions of the cranium and the cranial cavity and the intracranialvolume in goats, using 64 adults. The dimensions of the cranium and cranial cavity were measured throughmetric tape and paquimeter, considering the intervals of the largest distances. To determine the intracranialvolume, balloons of latex were introduced in the cranial cavity, through the magnum foramen, later on, filledwith water that was transferred for graduate test tube. The average and the standard deviation of length, widthand height of the cranium, in millimeters, were respectively: 218.01 ± 6.96, 120.17 ± 10.01 and 108.14 ± 4.46.The average and the standard deviation of length, width, height, in millimeters, and of the volume of thecranial cavity, in cubic centimeters, were respectively: 109.31 ± 7.25, 61.36 ± 4.51, 63.85 ± 2.88 and119.31 ± 12.21. It was observed that, the width of the cranium possesses positive significant correlationswith the length (r = 0.6865), with the height (r = 0.5644) and with the intracranial volume (r = 0.5436).They were still established, positive significant correlations among the height of the cranial cavity, with thelength (r = 0.5682) and with the intracranial volume (r = 0.5473). Differences were evidenced between malesand females, in relation to the dimensions of the cranium and cranial cavity. There wasnt difference of theintracranial volume in function of the sex of the goats.

A partir de um estudo retrospectivo de 507 pacientes adultos atendidos no Serviço de Triagem do Hospital das Clínicas da Unicamp, coletaram-se dados demográficos e de avaliaçäo e evoluçäo psiquiátricas. A maioria dos atendimentos (70%) foi para pacientes com menos de quarenta anos, de sexo feminino (60,7%), com baixa renda familiar, residentes em Campinas (48,7%) e cidades da regiäo. Foram selecionados para "casos novos" preferencialmente pacientes psicóticos, apesar do predomínio de distúrbios psiquiátricos menores (71,4%), notadamente neuróticos, altamente prevalentes na prática médica geral. Por falta de programas específicos, muitos desses pacientes näo foram, aceitos pelo nosso serviço, como também os casos de alcoolismo e dependência de drogas. Houve altas taxas de näo-comparecimento a primeira consulta (26,4%) e de abandono de tratamento (33,2%). Discute-se a inserçäo compromissada do hospital universitário na rede básica de saúde, bem como a necessidade de um diagnóstico das dificuldades e a baixa resolutividade da assistência psiquiátrica por ele prestada

Os autores estudam 111 casos de tuberculose pleural, comprovados pelo achado de granuloma com necrose caseosa em fragmento de pleura parietal, e descrevem a incidencia das lesoes pulmonares, mediastinicas e hilares associadas ao derrame pleural.Em 53,l% dos pacientes o derrame era do lado direito e em 9,9% bilateral. A incidencia dos derrames moderados (48,6%) predominou sobre os discretos (12,6%) e volumosos (38,7%). Em 62,0% das vezes houve o aparecimento de alguma lesao associada ao derrame. Dentre estas, as mais comuns foram os infiltrados nodulares difusos (35,l%) e as microcalcificacoes pulmonares (22,5%); com menor frequencia apareceram os infiltrados apicais, lesoes cavitarias ou cisticas, nodulos solitarios e outras lesoes. Nos concluimos que a concomitancia de lesoes pulmonares, mediastinicas e/ou peri-hilares e um fato comum nos pacientes com derrame pleural tuberculoso e pode ser importante na sua patogenese
