The effect of phytoliths on tooth wear and function has been contested in studies of animal-plant interactions. For herbivores whose occlusal chewing surface consists of enamel ridges and dentine tissue, the phytoliths might particularly erode the softer dentine, exposing the enamel ridges to different occlusal forces and thus contributing to ename...

Objective: To investigate the pharmacokinetics and absolute oral bioavailability of meloxicam in guinea pigs. Study design: Prospective crossover study. Animals: A group of six healthy male Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs. Methods: A single dose of meloxicam (1.5 mg kg(-1)) was administered orally and intravenously (IV) to six healthy male guinea pigs. ...

Meniscal allograft transplantation (MAT) has become relatively commonplace in specialized sport medicine practice for the treatment of patients with a symptomatic knee after the loss of a functional meniscus. The technique has evolved since the 1980s, and long-term results continue to improve. However, there still remains significant variation in h...

Objective: Develop a model that allowed the study of bone regeneration in infection conditions. Method: A 15 mm defect was surgically created in the rabbit ulna and inoculated with 5x10(8) colony-forming units (CFU) of S. aureus. Surgical debridement was performed two weeks after and systemic gentamicin was administered for four weeks. Animals were...

A novel degradable microsphere (MS) for intra-articular drug delivery, composed of a polyethylene glycol (PEG) core containing degradable regions made of short poly-(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) sequences - named PEG-hydrogel MS - was injected into the cavity of sheep shoulder joint, and compared to non-degradable MS devoid of hydrolysable cross...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the immunolocalization of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) after autogenous block grafting covered or not with an e-PTFE membrane. Forty-eight rats were divided into 2 groups, autogenous block graft (B) and autogenous block graft + e-PTFE membrane (MB), and were evaluated by immunohistochemistry at ba...

A decrease in the number of cardiovascular events in patients with rheumatoid arthritis or psoriasis treated with methotrexate (MTX) has been observed in the literature. The aim of this study was to test whether MTX could promote anti-inflammatory effects and reduce the atherosclerotic lesions in rabbits with atherosclerosis induced by cholesterol ...
