Introduction: The aim of this research was to provide a detailed description of the morphology, topography, and histometry of rabbit accessory genital glands. Material and Methods: Seven male New Zealand White rabbits, 3-4 months of age and weighing 2.1-3 kg were used for the study. The whole...

Peritendinous adhesions are a significant problem in tendon surgery. One of the most preferred methods for preventing adhesion formation is anti-adhesive applications. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of natural synovial fluid as an alternative viscoelastic agent for preventing adhesion ...

This study investigated the anesthetic, physiologic and hematologic effects of atropine-pentobarbitone, atropine-xylazine-pentobarbitone and atropine-acepromazine-pentobarbitone drug combinations in rabbits. The duration of anesthesia was significantly (p<0.05) longer in the atropine-acepromazine-pentobarbitone anesthetized rabbits. All drug combinations induced...

Objective - To determine whether ischemic postconditioning can attenuate intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury and has a beneficial effect on tissue blood flow during reperfusion. Study Design - In vivo experimental study. Animals - New Zealand White rabbits (n=6). Methods - Rabbits were...

Specific ingredients in all commercially available sodium pentobarbital formulations (Nembutal, Euthanasia-5 and Euthanasia-6) were evaluated. Ingredients included sterile water, alcohol, propylene glycol (PG) and sodium pentobarbital in various combinations and concentrations. Study animals (6...

Objective: To find out accurate resonance frequency and vibration characteristics of intestine, lung, kidney, stomach, heart and liver of rabbit in low frequency and to provide basic data for the study of organ's resonance injury and reaction. Methods: Eight rabbits were anaesthetized with 1.5%...

The objective of this study was to observe the therapeutic effect of core decompression with autografting of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) using arthroscopy on early osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Bone marrow was obtained from an adult male New Zealand white rabbit under sodium ...

The thoracic duct drains lymph from the caudal part of the body to the venous system. The visualization of the thoracic duct is important for diagnosis of chylothorax, which may be caused by the damage of the duct. However, it is not easy to visualize the thoracic duct by injecting dyes and/or...

The time-dependent effects of pentobarbital anaesthesia on the baroreflex arterial pressure (AP) control system was investigated in rabbits. The overall AP control capacity of the baroreflex system was assessed with mean arterial pressure (MAP) responses to the rapid mild haemorrhage (2 ml/kg body...
