In the first experimental group, propofol at a dose of 4-6 mg/kg was used to maintain general anesthesia. Inhaled halogen-containing anesthetics were used in the second and third experimental groups. Isoflurane 0.5 – 2.0 vol% was used in the second group, and sevoflurane 1.0 – 2.0 vol% was used in the third group. When using all the studied anesthetics, an acidbase imbalance in the form of moderate acidosis was detected in the puppies after delivery, however, acidosis was less pronounced in the groups where halogen-containing anesthetics were used. The use of inhaled halogen-containing anesthetics had a lesser effect on puppies compared to non-inhalation ones. There were no significant differences in the effect of isoflurane and sevoflurane from inhaled anesthetics.","PeriodicalId":14419,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Veterinary Medicine","volume":" 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138963524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Blood sampling (2.0 ml from each animal) was carried out from the tail vein into test tubes with sodium citrate. Cell elements were counted directly in blood and in platelet plasma using a MEK-6550 hematological analyzer.The ability to influence platelet activation was determined in drugs such as dexamethasone, ketarol and miloxicam, which were injected into test tubes before plasma reactivation. It was found that the drugs of these groups affect the metabolism of these cells and inhibit their ability to cause clot contraction. It was found that the strength of the negative effect on clot contraction in the steroid drug dexamethasone, which through intermediaries suppresses the activity of phospholipase-A2 and the nonsteroidal drug ketarol, which is the predominant inhibitor of cyclooxygenase of the first type, are similar. It was also found out that the drug meloxicam, which is a predominant inhibitor of cyclooxygenase of the second type, causes only a slight decrease in platelet clot contraction. The results obtained in the experiment indicate a direct positive relationship between the degree of clot contraction and the amount of thromboxane-A2, which is synthesized and released by activated platelets. It is known that the ability of platelets to accelerate and enhance regenerative processes is also directly related to their activation. Based on this, it is suggested that patients who have been prescribed plateletenriched plasma therapy should not use glucocorticoids and preparations with a high degree of selectivity to cyclooxygenase of the first type as anti-inflammatory drugs.","PeriodicalId":14419,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Veterinary Medicine","volume":" 27","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138995126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been established that an increase in the content of ketones in the blood is associated with hypoglycemia. Cows with increased levels of beta-hydroxybutyric acid at the beginning of lactation showed higher daily milk yields over a five-month period of observation. In the fourth and fifth months of lactation, the milk yield of these cows was higher than in groups 1 and 2 by 14.6-15.8% and 18.5-20.1%, respectively.

A calculation indicator was proposed - the lactation anabolism index, which is calculated using daily milk yield, mass fraction of milk protein and urea concentration. An increase in this index indicates the activation of anabolic reactions, a decrease indicates a surge in catabolic processes. An increase in the lactation anabolism index was found in cows of the third group at 4-5 months of lactation with a significant increase of 44.8-45.8% in comparison with groups 1 and 2.

The current study presents the distribution of extracellular matrix in cows during physiological pregnancy ending in spontaneous labor (FB/SR) and complicated pregnancy with symptoms of preeclampsia/eclampsia ending in pathological labor (OB/PR) using histological, histochemical (HC) and immunohistochemical (IHC) research methods. Biopsy material of placentas was obtained from 10 cows during labor: from 5 cows with FB/SR and from 5 cows with OB/PR. Samples of placentas from cows with FB/SR and OB/PR were subjected to standard histological procedures. Paraffin sections of the placenta, 5 µm thick, were mounted on glasses treated with poly-L-lysine (Menzel). Using IHC studies, the immunolocalization of the Ki-67 biomarker was studied. A histochemical study in the placentas of cows with FB/SR revealed the presence of a large number of small capillaries both in the villi of the cotyledons and in the caruncular crypts, as well as an equilibrium ratio of mesenchymal and epithelial structures. The reaction to vimentin showed degradation of fibroblasts. In the lumen of the crypts, only structureless masses and a small number of macrophagelike cells were recorded. In addition, in the central part of the unchanged villi, a sharp decrease in the number of small capillaries was established, as well as a reduction in the terminal chorionic villi and a decrease in the vascularization of the remaining villi. Immunolocalization of the content of intermediate biomarkers showed the content of a large amount of Ki-67 in the cells of the crypt lining.
