Objective: To observe the effects of perfusion of the gastrodin in abdominal aorta for alleviating the spinal cord ischemia reperfusion injury (SCIRI). Methods: A total of 36 New Zealand white rabbits were divided randomly into sham-operated group (group S), control group (group C) and gastrodin...

The aim of this study was to describe the arterial blood supply of the dorsal surface of the thoracolumbar spinal cord in the rabbit. The study was carried out on 10 adult New Zealand white rabbits. The arterial system of the thoracolumbar spinal cord was injected by using Batson's corrosion...

The aim of this study was to describe the anatomical variations in segmental branches arising from the descending aorta which supply the thoracolumbar spinal cord in rabbits. The study was carried out on twenty adult New Zealand white rabbits. We prepared corrosion casts of the arterial system of...

Objective: To analyze the effect and medical self-crosslinking sodium hyaluronate gel on epidural sear adhesion after laminectomy. Methods: A total of 24 New Zealand L5 laminectomy rabbits were randomly divided into four groups, group A as the control group without any treatment: group B covered by ...

Mirodenafil (SK3530) is a new potent and selective inhibitor of cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). Recent clinical trials have demonstrated that mirodenafil is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction. Its mechanism of action is enhancement of nitric oxide (NO) induced cGMP...

Dental disease is common in pet rabbits and treatment is an everyday procedure in many practices, yet many practitioners are unsure about how to approach these cases because the results of dental procedures can be disappointing. Maloccluded teeth can regrow within weeks of shortening and eating...

A model of acute spinal cord trauma was created by inflicting injury at the level of L₁-L₂ inter-vertebral space in 24 New Zealand White rabbits of either sex; steroid methyl prednisolone sodium succinate, nitric oxide synthase inhibitor L-NAME, electroacupuncture and a combination of L-NAME and...

Objective - Review the mechanisms of action and clinical application of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) based on human and veterinary clinical and experimental literature. Data Sources - Pubmed and Veterinary Information Network databases were searched for human and veterinary journal articles on...

A study was conducted to investigate the change in morphology and neurological function of the spinal cord after acute spinal column shortening, and to determine the safety range of acute shortening of the spinal column following total spondylectomy. 120 New Zealand white rabbits were used as...

Antirabic treatment with dried spinal cord has been less successful in Madagascar than in France especially amongst natives, probably owing to multiple injuries being inflicted by stray dogs. The desirability of producing a vaccine that permits decentralization of treatment has led to comparative...
