    Management of severe head injury with brain exposure in three loggerhead sea turtles Caretta caretta

    No full text
    The loggerhead Caretta caretta is the most common sea turtle in the Mediterranean. Currently, sea turtles are considered endangered, mainly due to the impact of human activities. Among traumatic lesions, those involving the skull, if complicated by brain exposure, are often life-threatening. In these cases, death could be the outcome of direct trauma of the cerebral tissue or of secondary meningoencephalitis. This uncontrolled study aims to evaluate the use of a plantderived dressing (1 Primary Wound Dressing®) in 3 sea turtles with severe lesions of the skull exposing the brain. Following surgical curettage, the treatment protocol involved exclusive use of the plant-derived dressing applied on the wound surface as the primary dressing, daily for the first month and then every other day until the end of treatment. The wound and peri-wound skin were covered with a simple secondary dressing without any active compound (non-woven gauze with petroleum jelly). Data presented herein show an excellent healing process in all 3 cases and no side effects due to contact of the medication with the cerebral tissue. © Inter-Research 2016

    The effects of oxytetracycline on the intestinal Escherichia coli flora of newly weaned pigs

    Four recently weaned pigs were dosed orally with oxytetracycline. This caused a rapid increase in the incidence of tetracycline resistance (TcR) among Escherichia coli isolates from the faecal flora. The isolates were differentiated further on the basis of O-serogroup, biotype and resistance pattern. There was no evidence that the administration of the antibiotic selected for a few TcR clones, but rather a relatively large number of TcR strains were identified during the dosing period. Using selective isolation media a proportion of these strains were demonstrated in the minority faecal Esch. coli flora before dosing, while the remainder were recognized for the first time after dosing commenced. The incidence of TcR among Esch. coli isolates also increased after weaning in other pigs which were not dosed with oxytetracycline or any other antibacterial agent. In a proportion of these animals this increase was associated with the dominance of a TcR enteropathogenic serotype (0149:K 91, K 88a, c) in the faecal Esch. coli flora which was probably ingested in small numbers before weaning. The source of other TcR strains was probably the environment in which each pig was placed after weaning

    John Jacob Esch -- a Wisconsin Congressman and the World War I era

    No full text
    This is a study of the political life of Congressman John Jacob Esch during the years from 1914-1919. This study is not intended to be a mere political biography, however. The extraordinary domestic situation brought about by America's involvement in World War I affected the actions, beliefs and careers of many national political figures. Congressman Esch was one of those so affected. This study is an analysis of the manner that the war affected his political career. John Esch represented Wisconsin's Seventh District for twenty-two years from 1899 to 1921. The years from 1914 to 1919, however, were probably the most critical--if not the most important--of his long political career. America's involvement in World War I brought extraordinary pressures to bear on the members of Wisconsin's Congressional delegation. LaFollette's attitude towards the war helped pin a "pro-German" label on him and other members of the delegation. During the neutrality controversy Esch joined with LaFollette in opposing the administration's course. Once America entered the conflict, however, Esch broke with the Senator and followed his own course. World War I affected Esch's position on three important issues not directly related to the war: immigration, prohibition and woman's suffrage. The chaotic condition of American railroads caused by the war led to federal control of the nation's transportation systems. Each recognized federal control as a necessity during the war and aided in the framing of wartime railroad legislation. When the war ended he was a co-author of the controversial Transportation Act which returned the railroads to their former owners. Esch's part in framing the Transportation Act and his votes on many issues during the war had brought him many enemies by 1920. Chief of these was Senator LaFollette who emerged from the war as strong as ever in Wisconsin. In the Republican primary of 1920 Esch was overwhelmingly defeated by Joseph Beck, a LaFollette lieutenant who received the combined support of organized labor, the Non-Partisan League and the state progressive machine
