Continuous rate infusion of midazolam as emergent treatment for seizures in dogs

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine.

By: K. Bray n, C. Mariani  n, P. Early  n, K. Muñana n  & N. Olby n

author keywords: acute repetitive seizures; anticonvulsant; benzodiazepine; canine; cluster seizures; epilepsy; status epilepticus
MeSH headings : Animals; Anticonvulsants / adverse effects; Dog Diseases / drug therapy; Dogs; Hospitals, Animal; Hospitals, Teaching; Midazolam / therapeutic use; Retrospective Studies; Seizures / drug therapy; Seizures / veterinary
TL;DR: Midazolam CRI is apparently safe and might be an effective treatment in dogs with CS or SE, and dogs with idiopathic/unknown epilepsy were more likely to survive than those with structural epilepsy. (via Semantic Scholar)

Fibre supplementation to pre-weaning piglet diets did not improve the resilience towards a post-weaning enterotoxigenic E. coli challenge

JOURNAL OF ANIMAL PHYSIOLOGY AND ANIMAL NUTRITION, 105(2), 260–271.

By: H. Hees*, D. Maes *, S. Millet *, L. Hartog*, T. Kempen n & G. Janssens *

author keywords: dietary fibre; ETEC; fermentability; intestinal permeability; weaned piglets
MeSH headings : Animal Feed / analysis; Animals; Diet / veterinary; Dietary Supplements; Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli; Escherichia coli Infections / prevention & control; Escherichia coli Infections / veterinary; Swine; Weaning
TL;DR: In conclusion, neither the high fermentable nor the low-fermentable fibre source improved post-weaning growth or gastrointestinal health of the piglets. (via Semantic Scholar)

Increasing browse and social complexity can improve zoo elephant welfare

ZOO BIOLOGY, 40(1), 9–19.

By: M. Lasky  n, J. Campbell n, J. Osborne n, E. Ivory*, J. Lasky n & C. Kendall n 

author keywords: behavior; diet; ex situ; Loxodonta africana; management; social
MeSH headings : Animal Feed / analysis; Animal Husbandry / methods; Animal Welfare; Animals; Animals, Zoo / physiology; Appetitive Behavior; Behavior, Animal; Diet / veterinary; Elephants / physiology; Female; Male; Social Behavior
TL;DR: It is found that increasing browse can improve opportunities for foraging throughout the day but may not be sufficient to reduce repetitive behaviors, and increasing group size and integration of bulls with cows can lead to increased social interaction in African elephants.

MeSH headings : Animals; Female; Genome; Genomics; Male; Phenotype; Recombination, Genetic; Swine
TL;DR: Evidence of variability for recombination in purebred swine populations is provided, with differences found for sex, breed, sex-breed interaction, and age effects for genome-wide recombination rate and RO at one or more chromosomes. (via Semantic Scholar)
