1. Origin of broiler carcass condemnations
ABSTRACT The objective of the present research was to study the incidence of broiler carcass condemnations over eleven years and identify the productive phase that causes greater loss in slaughter process. The origin of these condemnations was determined before and after fasting. Evaluated broilers were reared in positive pressure warehouses and slaughtered

2. Elevated serum Activin A in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with skeletal muscle wasting
OBJECTIVE: Muscle wasting contributes to the reduced quality of life and increased mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Muscle atrophy in mice with cachexia was caused by Activin A binding to ActRIIB. The role of circulating Activin A leading to muscle atrophy in COPD remains elusive. METHODS: In the present study, we evaluated the re

4. First report of an autochthonous human visceral leishmaniasis in a child from the South of Minas Gerais State, Brazil
ABSTRACT American visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a vector-borne disease transmitted by some species of phlebotomine sandflies from the genus Lutzomyia. This neglected tropical zoonosis shows increasing urbanization process, since the end of the 1980s. After the emergence of foci of the disease in urban areas, VL has assumed an important role in public health

5. Acuracy and Concordance of Anthropometric Indicators and Body Composition in Heart Failure
Abstract Background: Anabolic/catabolic disorder in heart failure (HF) favors cardiac cachexia, implying a reduction in HF survival. Objectives: To assess the accuracy and concordance of the diagnosis of protein malnutrition and excess fat among the anthropometric and body composition methods in individuals with HF. Method: A study of accuracy that includ

6. Microbiological, Physicochemical, and Histological Analyses of Broiler Carcasses with Cachexia
ABSTRACT Broiler carcasses presenting cachexia, as determined by the federal inspection agency, were submitted to microbiological, physicochemical, and histological analyses. Over a 2-month period, 278 carcasses from straight-run flocks of 43- to 48-d-old Cobb broilers from two different farms were condemned due to cachexia and subjected to gross examination

7. Antioxidant effects of açaí seed ( Euterpe oleracea ) in anorexia-cachexia syndrome induced by Walker-256 tumor
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To assess antioxidant effects of açaí seed extract on anorexia-cachexia induced by Walker-256 tumor. METHODS: A population of 20 lab rats were distributed into four groups (n=5): Control Group (CG), which only received tumor inoculation. Experimental Group-100 (EG-100), with animals submitted to tumor inoculation and treated with seed

8. Proposal of a Standard for the Condemnation for Turkey Carcasses Due to Fowlpox
ABSTRACT This study aimed at proposing a new technical criteria for condemnation of turkey carcasses due to fowlpox in turkeys as a contribution for the work of the Brazilian Federal Meat Inspection Service. Skin samples from 30 carcasses of a flock of 840 turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo), previously vaccinated for fowlpox and slaughtered in June 2013, were col

9. Identification and characterization of viroids in 'Navelina ISA 315' sweet orange
To date, seven species of viroids have been described infecting Citrus. However, only Citrus exocortis viroid (CEVd), Hop stunt viroid (HSVd) and Citrus dwarfing viroid (CDVd) have been reported in this crop in Brazil. The aim of our work was to identify and characterize viroids infecting plants of 'Navelina ISA 315' sweet orange cultivar grafted on 'Rangpur

10. Atividade física e suplementação nutricional de leucina associadas ao crescimento tumoral : estudo do perfil hormonal de ratos implantados com carcinossarcomia de Walker 256 / Physical activity and nutritional supplementation with leucine associated with tumor growth : study of hormonal profile in Walker 256
The cancer-cachexia is characterized by the development of anorexia, asthenia, weight loss, early satiety, anaemia and especially changes in the metabolism of carbohydrate, fat and protein in these cancer patients. The amino acid leucine acts promoting cell signalling by inhibiting the protein catabolism and stimulating the protein synthesis in skeletal musc

12. Metabolismo da glutamina em caninos sadios e enfermos. / Glutamine metabolism in healthy and sick dogs.
A glutamina (GLN) é produzida por diferentes tecidos através da enzima glutamina sintetase (GS), sendo que o tecido muscular, devido à sua extensão, é o maior produtor desse aminoácido, seguido pelos pulmões, fígado, e placenta. Os enterócitos e as células do sistema imune são os maiores consumidores. Durante as infecções graves e enfermidades q
