Objectives. To assess the integration of an autologous composite fascia and fat graft implanted into the lamina propria of a porcine vocal fold using two different approaches.Study Design. An experimental prospective study ...

The degree of fat accumulation and adipokine production are two major indicators of obesity that are correlated with increased adipose tissue mass and chronic inflammatory responses. Adipocytes have been considered effector ...

Adipocytes are dynamic cells that have critical functions to maintain body energy homeostasis. Adipocyte physiology is affected by the adipogenic differentiation, cell program, as well as by the exogenous stimulation of ...

The goal of this work was to develop mortadellas replacing porcine fat with canola, linseed soy and olive oils, using two different substitution levels (50% and 100%) and its evaluation based on fatty acids profile, ...

This work aimed to evaluate the effect of replacing dietary porcine meat meal by different plant-protein sources on the growth, carcass yield, carcass quality, blood parameters and sensory evaluation of the fillets of ...

This work was carried out to evaluate the performance and carcass characteristics of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) juveniles in response to dietary protein levels and sources. For this, two experiments were conducted: ...

Purpose: Balloon dilation potentially represents a safer and simpler technique for the treatment of ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction and ureteral strictures. Using a porcine model, we sought to establish the optimal ...

Oxfendazole (OFZ) is efficacious for porcine cysticercosis at 30mg/kg. OFZ is not registered to be used at this dose. The assessment of the OFZ and metabolites [(fenbendazole sulphone (FBZSO2), fenbendazole (FBZ)] plasma ...
