This paper describes the results of the artificial nursing of 8 infant cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) weighing 230-350 g at birth. The infants were separated from their mothers just after or 2 days after birth and were kept in a specially deviced small cage (Photo 1 & 2). They were fed on 6.4-16.6% solution of a commercially available powdered milk for the human baby. Apple juice also was given to them from the 3rd or 4th week on. In about the 6th week, the infants received solid foods such as small pieces of apple, biscuit and monkey chow. The main part of the dietary regimen was changed to the solid diet around the 12th week. The volume of milk taken was recorded every day, and the daily intake ff three major nutrients was estimated with the milk intake (Fig. 1,2,5,6). The body weights were between 600 and 750 g on the day of weaning, that is at about 12 weeks of age, except No. 2 infant showing a slight growth retardation (Fig.4). Their physical growth can be judged as normal as that of breast-nursed infants of the saame species from our laboratory. On the basis of these results, an example of the artificial feeding schedule for the infant cynomolgus monkeys was introduced (Fig. 7).
The present short paper deals with the weight of the male reproductive organs of wild-imported cynomolgus monkeys, including the testes, epididymides, ductus deferens, vesicula seminalis prostata, bulbo urethralis and penis. In addition, the size of the testes and the weight of the thyroid and hypophysis are also presented.
We report a case of intra-articular fracture of the knee joint showing three layers within lipohemarthrosis. Sagittal ultrasonography showed three layers (double fluid-fluid level): a superior hyperechoic layer of fat, an intermediate anechoic layer of serum, and an inferior hypoechoic layer of red blood cells. Horizontal computed tomography imaging demonstrated the same three layers. This is the first case of lipohemarthrosis in which three layers of joint effusion were confirmed by both ultrasonography and computed tomography.
To evaluate the extent of the nutritional stress of pediatric bone marrow transplantation (BMT) and to evaluate the use of total parenteral nutrition (TPN), 35 consecutive pediatric patients who received BMT were studied retrospectively. Voluntary cessation of oral nutrition in almost all patients was observed, and significant decreases of serum albumin levels were seen after BMT. In 85% of these patients, TPN was necessary in response to severe wasting and fasting. No deaths were related to indwelling central venous catheters during the period of 2968 catheter-use days in these severely myelosuppressed patients. The mean of the total daily energy intake was 104% of basal energy expenditure (BEE), and 70% of patients lost their weight. Predicted energy requirement to maintain body weight after BMT would be 128% of BEE from a simple linear regression step in this study. Significant correlations were found between the marrow recovery time and the initial nutritional state, expressed as the percentage of ideal weight height ratio, as well as benign nature of the disease. The use of TPN did not show any beneficial effects on the time course of marrow recovery, although it showed favorable effects on the maintenance of body weight.
