One-hundred ninety-two crossbred steers (initial BW = 351 +/- 11 kg) were used to determine the effects of removing alfalfa hay (AH) from dry-rolled corn-based diets containing wet corn gluten feed (WCGF) on animal performance and nutrient (N and OM) mass balance in open feedlot pens. Steers were stratified by weight and assigned randomly to 24 pens (2 x 3 factorial) and fed for 132 d from June...

although ilkhanids (1256-1353 ce) initially selected maraghe and then tabriz as their capital, the thought of founding a new city as a symbol of their kingdom encouraged them to establish soltanieh. ghazan khan’s goal of constructing the newly-built capital was accomplished during uljayto’s kingdom; a project that lasted for about 10 years (704-713 ah). although soltanieh’s fast development mad...

STUDY OBJECTIVE Hysterectomy for presumed leiomyomata is 1 of the most common surgical procedures performed in nonpregnant women in the United States. Laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) with morcellation is an appealing alternative to abdominal hysterectomy (AH) but may result in dissemination of malignant cells and worse outcomes in the setting of an occult leiomyosarcoma (LMS). We sought to evalu...

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of physical form of starter and alfalfa hay (AH) provision on growth performance, ruminal fermentation, and blood metabolites of Holstein dairy calves. Forty-four 3d-old Holstein dairy calves with a mean starting BW of 39.9 ± 1.1 kg were used in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement. The factors were dietary forage level (0 or 150 g kg-1</sup...

PURPOSE To use an integrated proteohistologic approach to gain insight into the anterior segment alterations in the buphthalmic rabbit. METHODS Eyes from 2- and 5-year-old buphthalmic and normal rabbits (n=20) were studied histologically. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) of aqueous humor (AH) was used to determine differential protein expression between animal groups....

i ntroduction: assessment of cellular cytotoxicity is a regular method for evaluating the biocompatibility of novel materials. in a recent study, 5% fluoride varnish (duraflur) has shown reasonable sealing ability and coverage of root canal walls when used as a sealer. the aim of the present study was to compare cytotoxicity of duraflur varnish with two popular commonly used root canal sealers ...

AIM To evaluate the outcome of a cohort of young women treated with progestin for fertility-sparing management of endometrial atypical hyperplasia (AH) and endometrial carcinoma (EC). This retrospective multicentre cohort study included women under the age of 40 years treated conservatively for AH and EC to preserve fertility using progestin for at least 3 months. Four inclusion criteria were d...

Aim: Most endodontic sealers show antimicrobial activity before setting, but most of them also lose this ability after setting. Addition of an antibiotic may affect the properties of sealers such as sealing ability, setting time, and so on. The aim of this study was to assess whether the addition of antibiotics (amoxicillin, doxycycline, and clindamycin) improves the sealing ability of AH 26 se...
