non cemented hip implants. failures of biologically fixed devices: causes and treatment.	complications of cementless prostheses are similar to those presented by the cemented ones. they are all the consequence of a failure (lack) of the bony fixation, which may be primary (the components never become fixed) or secondary (the components lose their bony attachments that were initially achieved). the bony fixation is often very difficult to assess, and a localized radiolucent line is always a bad indication. failure of fixation may be partial or total for one or both components. remova ...	2013	3818352

[realities in the diagnosis of bronchial carcinoma in clinical and general practice].	in 100 patients with lung cancer the diagnostic procedure, results of clinical staging and therapeutic sequelae were analysed retrospectively and compared to a similar group of patients 10 years previously. during the 10 years' interval there was a remarkable shortening of the time between the onset of symptoms and the diagnosis, from 20 weeks to the present 10 weeks. despite this acceleration the number of patients undergoing curative surgical resection increased only from 15 to 17%. inoperabil ...	2013	3672088
movement of retinal terminals in goldfish optic tectum predicted by analysis of neuronal proliferation.	quantitative, computer-assisted autoradiography was used to assess the relative rate and pattern of growth of retina and tectum in larval and early juvenile goldfish. 3h-thymidine was used to mark the boundary of retina and tectum, and the location of this boundary was charted as the eye and brain grew and added more cells. the pattern of growth is at all times discordant. the original (larval) retina becomes surrounded by annuli of new tissue, whereas the larval tectum remains adjacent to the r ...	2013	3746418
high-density lipoprotein turnover.	high-density lipoprotein (hdl) metabolism has been reviewed from information derived from turnover studies in humans. the two major hdl apoproteins ai and aii have different removal rates, reflecting the faster catabolism of hdl2 than of hdl3. this is caused by the continual cycle of formation of hdl2 from hdl3 and its reversion to hdl3, in response to the need to transport cholesterol and other lipids from extrahepatic cells and catabolized triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. the conversion of hdl2 ...	2013	3544764

lovastatin-enriched rice straw enhances biomass quality and suppresses ruminal methanogenesis.	the primary objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that solid state fermentation (ssf) of agro-biomass (using rice straw as model); besides, breaking down its lignocellulose content to improve its nutritive values also produces lovastatin which could be used to suppress methanogenesis in the rumen ecosystem. fermented rice straw (frs) containing lovastatin after fermentation with aspergillus terreus was used as substrate for growth study of rumen microorganisms using in vitro gas pro ...	2013	23484116
detection of fiber-digesting bacteria in the forestomach contents of llamas (lama glama) by pcr.	the high fibrolytic activity and large biomass of strictly-anaerobic bacteria that inhabit the rumen makes them primarily responsible for the degradation of the forage consumed by ruminants. llamas feed mainly on low quality fibrous roughages that are digested by an active and diverse microflora. the products of this fermentation are volatile fatty acids and microbial biomass, which will be used by the animals. the aim of this study was to detect the three major fiber-digesting anaerobic bacteri ...	2013	24165135

analysis of rumen microbial populations in lactating dairy cattle fed diets varying in carbohydrate profiles and saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation product.	the rumen microbial ecosystem is a critical factor that links diets to bovine physiology and productivity; however, information about dietary effects on microbial populations has generally been limited to small numbers of samples and qualitative assessment. to assess whether consistent shifts in microbial populations occur in response to common dietary manipulations in dairy cattle, samples of rumen contents were collected from 2 studies for analysis by quantitative real-time pcr (qpcr). in one ...	2013	23849646
a phylogenetic analysis of the phylum fibrobacteres.	members of the phylum fibrobacteres are highly efficient cellulolytic bacteria, best known for their role in rumen function and as potential sources of novel enzymes for bioenergy applications. despite being key members of ruminants and other digestive microbial communities, our knowledge of this phylum remains incomplete, as much of our understanding is focused on two recognized species, fibrobacter succinogenes and f. intestinalis. as a result, we lack insights regarding the environmental nich ...	2013	23759599
the effect of plant extracts on in-vitro ruminal fermentation, methanogenesis and methane-related microbes in the rumen.	the effect on methanogens attached to the surface of rumen ciliate protozoa by the addition of plant extracts (pine needles and ginkgo leaves) was studied with particular reference to their effectiveness for decreasing methane emission. the plant extracts (pine needles and ginkgo leaves) were added to an in vitro fermentation incubated with rumen fluid. the microbial population including bacteria, ciliated-associated methanogen, four different groups of methanogens and fibrobacter succinogenes w ...	2013	25049817
grain-rich diets differently alter ruminal and colonic abundance of microbial populations and lipopolysaccharide in goats.	high grain feeding has been associated with ruminal ph depression and microbial dysbiosis in cattle. yet, the impact of high grain feeding on the caprine rumen and hindgut microbial community and lipopolysaccharide (lps) release is largely unknown. therefore, the objective was to investigate the effect of increasing dietary levels of barley grain on the microbial composition and lps concentrations in the rumen and colon of goats. effects were compared with respect to the responses of ruminal and ...	2013	23474085
