| the treatment of acute accidental hypothermia: proceedings of a symposium held at the raf institute of aviation medicine. | a symposium was held at the raf institute of aviation medicine, farnborough, hampshire, on feb. 28, 1978. the purpose of the meeting was to distill up-to-date expert opinion to provide advice for those faced with the treatment of victims of exposure or cold water immersion. in particular, it was intended to recommend practical measures which could be employed in the field. however, it soon became apparent that there are large gaps in our knowledge of the physiology of hypothermia. these made the ... | 1979 | 496754 |

| the prevalence of sarcocystis spp in dogs and red foxes. | protozoan parasites of the genus sarcocystis have been recognised for many years as intramuscular cysts of numerous vertebrates. it is only comparatively recently that the two-host nature of the life cycle has been recognised and that the intramuscular cysts are a stage in the developmental cycle of coccidian parasites of flesh eating mammals (fayer 1974, fayer and johnson 1973, 1974, rommel and others 1972, dubey 1976). carnivores ingest the intramuscular cysts from herbivores and presumably fr ... | 1978 | 416553 |

| the incidence of significant bacteriuria in the dog. | counts of the number of bacteria in canine urine samples have a bimodal distribution similar to that found in man. therefore it is reasonable to accept the same criterion of significant bacteriuria in the dog as in man, namely a count of 10(5) or more organisms/ml. of urine. the incidence of significant bacteriuria in the total canine population was 1.4%. it was higher in bitches compared with male dogs, and higher in older animals. the larger proportion of boxers affected was attributed to thei ... | 1978 | 354091 |
