The effect of various feeds on the fertility hormone levels and blood parameters were investigated using albino wistar rats of both sexes. The rats (140-180g) were housed in the animal house of physiology department of the University with room temperature 30.5 O C. The rats were divided into four groups of fifteen rats in each. Group A and C were fed with industrial feeds (Pelletised growers feed, Guinea Nig. Ltd) while groups B and D were fed with local feeds. Water was given ad libitum and the study lasted for 60 days. At the end of the experiment, the animals were sacrificed by cardiac puncture and blood samples collected for hormonal assay and blood analysis. Results showed that fertility hormones (FSH, LH, Prolactin, Progesterone, Testosterone) in the industrial feed/fed animals were significantly higher than the fertility hormones in the local feed-fed rats (p<0.01). Results of blood parameters also showed that the indices were significantly higher in the rats fed with industrial feed when compared with those fed with local feeds (P<0.01). Therefore it is concluded that fertility hormones and haematological indices in the rats fed with industrial feeds were significantly increased when compared with the rats fed with local feeds and this will improve oestrous cycle and more frequent gestation.

研究了不同饲料对雄性和雌性白化wistar大鼠生殖激素水平和血液指标的影响。大鼠140 ~ 180g,饲养于大学生理学系动物舍,室温30.5℃。大鼠分为4组,每组15只。A组和C组分别饲喂工业饲料(颗粒化养殖饲料、豚鼠饲料;B组和D组饲喂当地饲料。随机饮水,试验期60 d。实验结束时,穿刺心脏处死动物,取血进行激素测定和血液分析。结果表明,工业饲料/饲养动物的生育激素(FSH、LH、Prolactin、Progesterone、Testosterone)显著高于本地饲养大鼠(p<0.01)。血液指标分析结果也显示,工业饲料组大鼠各项指标均显著高于局部饲料组(P<0.01)。由此可见,饲喂工业饲料的大鼠的生育激素和血液学指标明显高于饲喂地方饲料的大鼠,从而改善了发情周期,提高了妊娠频率。健康与视觉科学杂志(2013)卷15 (1):38 - 42

Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of mortality which equals an average of 1 death every 33 seconds as confirmed by statistics from United States National Centre for Health Statistics (NCHS). Sixty healthy subjects within the age range 40 to 75 years (mean, 54. 7+ 3.3), M: F ratio given as 1.4:1 were selected by stratified random sampling for the study. The supplement (Plakman TM) was administrated and the lipid profile at pre and post-treatment determined using standardized laboratory protocol. Data obtained were statistically analyzed and presented in tabular form. Results revealed a statistically significant increase (p ƒ¬0.05) in mean serum HDL cholesterol in the post-treatment relative to pre-treatment level. Conversely, there was a statistically significant decrease in the total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol post-treatment. However, there was no statistically significant change (p. ƒ®0.05) in the VLDL and triglyceride fractions respectively in both sexes. A statistically significant difference (p. ƒ¬0.05) was also reported in the summary estimates involving the ratios TC/HDL-C and LDL-C/HDL-C respectively in both sexes. Thus, the cardiovascular supplement (Plakman TM) could be exploited in significantly lowering the risk of CHD in the study population Keywords: Cardiovascular supplement, Coronary heart disease, Lipoprotein fractions
心血管疾病是导致死亡的主要原因之一,根据美国国家卫生统计中心的统计数据,平均每33秒就有一人死亡。年龄在40 ~ 75岁之间的健康受试者60例(平均54岁)。7+ 3.3), M: F比值为1.4:1,采用分层随机抽样方法进行研究。给予补充剂(Plakman TM),并使用标准化实验室方案确定治疗前后的脂质谱。对所得数据进行统计分析,并以表格形式呈现。结果显示,治疗后患者血清HDL - c水平较治疗前升高,差异有统计学意义(p < 0.05)。相反,治疗后总胆固醇和低密度脂蛋白胆固醇有统计学意义的下降。然而,两种性别的VLDL和甘油三酯分数差异无统计学意义(p. f®0.05)。在两性中分别涉及TC/HDL-C和LDL-C/HDL-C比值的汇总估计中也报告了统计学上显著差异(p. 0.05)。因此,心血管补充剂(Plakman TM)可以显著降低研究人群冠心病的风险。关键词:心血管补充剂,冠心病,脂蛋白含量

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) commonly associated with severe combined immunodeficiency disease believed to be an important enzyme for the modulation of bioactivity of insulin. The clinical significance in Metabolic Diseases patients in South Eastern Nigeria was studied. Body Mass Index (BMI), Fating Blood Glucose, Glycated Heamoglobin (GHbA1C), total serum Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) activities were measured apparently healthy people (control), (n =25), type II diabetic patients, n = 25), obese patients ( obese diabetics n = 25), obese non-diabetics n = 25, non –obese diabetic n = 25), respectively. The results (mean±) show that the mean values in the test groups were significantly higher than the controls respectively. . FBG in obese-diabetic (12.5±2mmol/L) and non-obese – diabetic (4.8±0.4mmol/l) 0 differed statistically (p<0.05) except in obese non- diabetic (11.3± 1.3mmol/L), (p<0.05). GHbA1C differed significantly in obeses diabetic (17.35±1.5%), obese non-diabetic (12.87±0.6%) and non-obese diabetic (14.2±0.75%) patients (p. <001) respectively. ADA activities also differed in obese diabetics (22.88±2.65iu/L), obese non-diabetics, (18.23.±0.872iu/l), and obese nondiabetics (18.076±1.4 p<0.001) respectively while. BMI showed no correlation with FBG, GHbA1C, and ADA respectively. Comparatavely adenosine deaminase, assays are cost effective –method that could be employed in the daily routine laboratories during investigation and treatment of metabolic diseases, especially obesities and diabetic patients.

腺苷脱氨酶(ADA)通常与严重的联合免疫缺陷疾病相关,被认为是调节胰岛素生物活性的重要酶。研究尼日利亚东南部代谢性疾病患者的临床意义。分别测定身体质量指数(BMI)、空腹血糖、糖化血红蛋白(GHbA1C)、血清总腺苷脱氨酶(ADA)活性,分别为明显健康者(对照组)(n =25)、II型糖尿病患者(n =25)、肥胖患者(肥胖糖尿病患者n =25)、肥胖非糖尿病患者n =25、非肥胖糖尿病患者n =25)。结果(均数±)显示,各试验组的平均值均显著高于对照组。除肥胖非糖尿病患者(11.3±1.3mmol/L)外,肥胖糖尿病患者(12.5±2mmol/L)与非肥胖糖尿病患者(4.8±0.4mmol/ L)差异有统计学意义(p<0.05)。肥胖糖尿病(17.35±1.5%)、肥胖非糖尿病(12.87±0.6%)和非肥胖糖尿病(14.2±0.75%)患者的GHbA1C差异有统计学意义(p <001)。肥胖糖尿病患者(22.88±2.65iu/L)、肥胖非糖尿病患者(18.23±0.872iu/ L)和肥胖非糖尿病患者(18.076±1.4 p<0.001)的ADA活性也存在差异。BMI与FBG、GHbA1C、ADA均无相关性。相对而言,腺苷脱氨酶测定法是一种经济有效的方法,可用于日常实验室中代谢性疾病的调查和治疗,特别是肥胖和糖尿病患者。关键词:糖尿病,腺苷脱氨酶,代谢综合征

Prevalence of low vision secondary to eye injuries in South Eastern Nigeria 尼日利亚东南部继发于眼部损伤的低视力患病率

A retrospective study of the prevalence of low vision secondary to eye injuries in south-eastern part of Nigeria was undertaken. Data obtained from files in ten tertiary hospitals within the area showed that 394 cases of low vision due to eye injuries were found in the ten hospitals within a ten year period (1986 –2006). Frequency tables, bar charts and percentages were used in the data analysis. Contusion was found to be most prevalent eye injury causing low vision (62.4%), followed by laceration (14.3%), surgical eye injures (6.55%), assault (6.6%), road traffic accident (3.81%), chemical injuries (3.65%), foreign body abrasion (1.52%), eye injury of unspecified type (1.02%) while the least prevalent was radiation injuries (0.25%). Results further showed that the prevalence of low vision secondary to eye injuries is low in the area. These injuries are preventable and when they occur are treatable, hence effort should be geared towards enlightening the populace on the need to use safety devices at home and at work, children should be prevented from playing with sharp objects and when eye injury occurs, early attendance to an eye clinic is necessary to forestall any further damage.  Key words: Eye Injuries, prevalence, southeastern Nigeria
回顾性研究了尼日利亚东南部继发于眼部损伤的低视力患病率。从该地区10家三级医院的档案资料中获得的数据显示,在10年期间(1986 -2006年),10家医院共发现394例因眼部损伤导致的低视力病例。数据分析采用频率表、柱状图和百分比。以挫伤为主(62.4%),其次为撕裂伤(14.3%)、外科眼外伤(6.55%)、殴打(6.6%)、道路交通事故(3.81%)、化学伤(3.65%)、异物擦伤(1.52%)、不明类型眼外伤(1.02%),辐射伤发生率最低(0.25%)。结果进一步表明,该地区眼外伤继发低视力的患病率较低。这些伤害是可以预防的,当它们发生时是可以治疗的,因此应努力使民众了解在家中和工作中使用安全装置的必要性,应防止儿童玩尖锐物体,当眼睛受伤时,必须尽早到眼科诊所就诊,以防止任何进一步的损害。关键词:眼伤,流行,尼日利亚东南部

This study is carried out in order to estimate the height of adult Igbo people of Abakaliki ethnic group in South-Eastern Nigeria from their facial Morphology. The parameters studied include Facial Length, Bizygomatic Diameter, Bigonial Diameter, Nasal Length, and Nasal Breadth. A total of 1000 subjects comprising 669 males arid 331 females whose age-range falls within 12 years to 45 years were measured directly with a pair of metal spreading calipers and steel tape following internationally recommended standard methods and techniques. Facial and Nasal indices were then calculated. The result shows that all the five parameters correlated positively (r=0.98) with stature. The bizygomatic Diameter (BZD) presented stronger correlation with stature than the other facial parameters. Also, regression analysis shows that the BZD gives a better prediction of stature. This could be useful in forensic applications. Keywords:  Stature, Facial, Nigerian, Bizygomatic, Bigonial Nasal.
本研究旨在根据尼日利亚东南部Abakaliki族成年伊博人的面部形态来估计他们的身高。研究的参数包括面部长度、双颧直径、双侧直径、鼻长和鼻宽。根据国际推荐的标准方法和技术,用金属伸缩卡尺和钢卷尺直接测量年龄在12 ~ 45岁之间的男性669人、女性331人共1000人。然后计算面部和鼻腔指数。结果表明,5个参数均与身高呈正相关(r=0.98)。颧骨直径(BZD)与身高的相关性较强。回归分析表明,BZD能较好地预测身高。这可能在法医应用中很有用。关键词:身材,面部,尼日利亚人,双眼皮,双鼻部。
