The article presents data on the effectiveness of two fenbendazole-based drugs for oral application: «Feboral» (in the form of a solution) and «Brovadazol 20%» (the reference drug in the form of powder). For this purpose, 420-day-old chickens were examined by a flotation coproscopic method in order to detect intestinal invasions. The therapeutic efficacy of the drugs was determined according to the data of the coproscopic examinations carried out using the modified quantitative McMaster counting method. The study of the efficacy of «Febboral» and «Brovadazol 20%» preparations was performed under the conditions of vivarium of the State scientific-research control institute of  veterinary medicinal products and feed additives.During the experiment birds of experimental groups used preparations on the basis of fenbendazole: hens of the first experimental group, the drug «Feboral» was poured out with water (1.0 ml of the preparation for 10 kg of b. w., twice for two days), the second – the drug «Brovadazol 20%» they were given with food (0.5 g of the preparation at 10 kg b. w., for five days). Birds in the control group were given water and food without the contents of drugs.According to the results of research in hens were found invasion by Heterakis galinarum. The average rate of invasion of hens by nematodes during treatment with drugs was 176 eggs per 1 g of litter. In the hens of the first and second experimental groups, the average intensity of the helminth infestation on the seventh day of the experiment was 84.5 eggs per 1 g of litter, while the intensity of the infection of the control group was 211 eggs per 1 g of litter. On the fourteenth day of the experiment, the excretion of eggs from the pathogen in the hens of both experimental groups was not noted, while in the hens of the control group, the intensity of the invasion amounted to 238 eggs heterakis in 1 gram of litter.Consequently, the extenseffectivity of the drug «Febboral» and the reference drug «Brovadazol 20%» for heterakoses of chickens was 100%.

According to the results of clinical examination and parasitological examination of animals, parasitism of fleas of the Ctenocephalides canis, Ctenocephalides felis, Pulex irritans species at the intensity of invasion (II) from 5 to 8 specimens/10 cm2, lice Linognathus setosus at II from 1 to 3 specimens/10 cm2 of body surface, and parasitic mites of the Ixodes ricinus, Dermacentor reticulatus species at II from 8 to 12 specimens per animal in addition in dogs. Based on the obtained results for the study of the effectiveness of the «Animal VetLine antiparasitic drops for dogs and cats spot-on» in comparison with the reference drug «Advantage@» medicine, during the infection of dogs and cats by Ctenocephalides canis, Pulex irritans and Ctenocephalides felis fleas, Linognathus setosus lice, mites of the Ixodes ricinus, Dermacentor reticulatus species, was found that on the second day of treatment in the experimental and control groups of animals there was a sharp increase in the number of dead insects, ectoparasites and Ixodes mites, and on the fifth day of the study no live fleas were detected, lice and ticks. At the same time, on the second day after the usage of the experimental and reference drug, their extensile effectivity during the linognatosis of dogs and cats and syphonapterosis of cats was 100.0 %. In the experimental and control groups of dogs on the second day after usage of the experimental drug and the reference drug, the average intensity of invasion of Ctenocephalides canis and Pulex irritans decreased to 1.2±0.4 ectoparasite insects per 10 cm2 of body surface in the experimental group and to 1.4±0.4 insect ectoparasites per 10 cm2 of body surface in the control group of animals, ie the intensity of the experimental drug was 82.1 %, and the reference drug 78.5 %. The results show that the rate of intensification of the drug for exodidosis of dogs in the experimental group on the second day was – 75.0 %, and the control – 68.0 %. However, the average intensity of mite infestation of the family Ixodidae was in the experimental group 2.5±0.15 specimens per animal, and in the control group 3.0±0.21 specimens per animal, respectively. It was found that the experimental drug had no toxic effects and was well tolerated by animals no changes in clinical signs during use were detected.

With the access of the millennials to the contents of the internet through their smartphones, a new educommunicative ecosystem emerges that favors communication through immediacy and interactivity. This research seeks to know the habitual and spontaneous use of millennial smartphone during an on-campus class at the university. Experimental research has been used, using neuroscientific techniques of electrodermia, to measure the attention of subjects and their emotions at the group level, as well as a complementary quantitative questionnaire. The experiment was carried out with 44 people distributed in the two groups with 22 subjects in each one (experimental group and control group), with ages between 20 and 21 years of age of both sexes (in a similar proportion). 45% said they use the smartphone in class to chat, 29% to enter social networks and 5% indicated the use of the smartphone to take photos. 21% said they never use the smartphone in class. Regarding the neuroscientific experiment there was an increase in attention in the session in which the use of smartphone was prohibited. The students declare that they have smartphone usage patterns in the classroom similar to those they have outside the classroom. There were no significant differences in the duration and average intensity of attention and emotion between the experimental group and the control group.

The author has founded the causes of gastroenteritis in goats: imbalance diet of goats, wound-spring sills (when cold, damp, windy and rainy weather is prevailed in  the region, and animals are keeping under canopies or in unsuitable premises), as well as feeding goats by cow’s milk, early domestication to dry grain feed and also the grazing of young animals with adult ones. The application  of complex treatment regimens which included Gastrofest Forte reduced the treatment time for 2 days. The safety of the goats of the experimental group was 100% which is 20% higher than in the control group. The restoration of morphological indicators of blood more actively occurred in goats of the experimental group in which the amount of hemoglobin was more than 21.7%. The biochemical study of blood serum showed a significant increase in the number of γ-globulins by 3.6 g/l in the experimental group of goats compared with analogues of the control group.

Normalization of the bacterial background of the gastrointestinal tract and the reaction of the environment largely contributes to the growth and development of poultry in accordance with the standard of cross. The addition of the prebiotic Salmocil F to the diet of replacement young poultry at the dose of 0,6 kg, 0,8 and 1,0 kg/t of compound feed allowed the poultry to grow to 18 weeks of age with a live weight of 1836,2 kg, 1915,4 and 1885,0 kg, respectively, which was higher than the control group by 0,7 %, 5,0 and 3,3 %, and the uniformity of the group by 8,0–9,0 %. The prebiotic Salmocil F contributed to the better development of the replacement young poultry such as muscularization of the pectoral muscle, its tone and physical shape. The prebiotic Salmocil F excluded the reason for the culling of poultry in the experimental group for toxicosis and intestinal intussusception, increasing the livability of livestock in the experimental group with the low dosage by 3,0 %, with medium and high by 4,0 %. The low dose of prebiotic in the diet of poultry of the 2nd experimental group in comparison with the 1st control group reduced expenditures of feed by 5,5 %, the average rate of input in the 3rd experimental group by 6,7 %, the high dose in the diet of chicks of the 4th experimental group by 6,1 %. The feed-conversion efficiency for receiving replacement young poultry per each 100 kg of feed fed in the group with the dosage of 0,6 kg in comparison with the control group was higher by 6,0 %, with the increase to 0,8 kg by 7,2 and with the addition of 1,0 kg/t of feed by 4,1 %, and in value terms by 5,4 %, 6,5 and 5,6 %, respectively. More optimal is the dosage of 0,8 kg of the prebiotic Salmocil F per 1 ton of compound feed.

AbstractThe goal of this study was to evaluate the Adolescent Smoking Cessation Escaping Nicotine and Tobacco (ASCENT) program, a multifaceted smoking cessation intervention for teens, aged 14 to 18. Seven schools were randomised into either an intervention group (n = 61) or a comparison control group (n = 44). Findings suggested that 67% of the teens in the experimental group reported they did not smoke daily in the past 12 months, compared to 42% of the control group (p < .05). In addition, experimental (treated) youth reduced their smoking from an average of 8 cigarettes a day at baseline to 6 cigarettes a day (p < .05). Although not statistically significant, the overall 1-year quit rate for both groups was higher than the average rate for youth cessation programs (12%). The results of this study suggest that, with appropriate interventions, it is feasible to reduce youth smoking.

Peroxisomes which participate in 1ipid metabolism have been shown to be altered in several metabolic disorders and toxic conditions. In alcoholic liver disease, the single lesion most frequently found is lipid accumu1ation in hepatocytes. However, the mechanisms for this 1ipid accumu1ation are not clear. The occurrence of modifications of liver peroxisomes due to excess alcohol consumption has not been subjected to a controlled study. We utilized a combination of cytochemica1 and morphometrictechniques to study the size and number of liver peroxisomes in rats fed an alcohol-supplemented diet compared to those of matched-paired control animals.Male Sprague-Daw1ey rats (400-500 g) received a liquid diet. The experimental group (N = 5/group) was fed a diet containing 30% ethanol-derived calories (EDC) and the control group was fed an isocaloric diet to 30% EDC. A pair feeding procedure was employed to control for caloric intake. Small pieces of liver randomly selected, were fixed in 2.3% -glutaraldehyde in 0.1 M sodium cacodylate buffer, pH 7.2, incubated in a DAB medium and postfixed with. 2% aqueous osmium tetroxide. EM photographs were taken from sections of 3 tissue blocks from each sample (7,200X) with a Zeiss EM10-A (60 kV). With the use of a point counting method and a digital planimeter the volume density (Vv) and numerical density (Nv) were determined.

The studies reported here focus on similarities and dissimilarities between the terminal value hierarchies ( Rokeach, 1973 ) ascribed to different groups ( Schwartz & Struch, 1990 ). In Study 1, n = 65 East Germans and n = 110 West Germans mutually assess the respective ingroup and outgroup. In this intra-German comparison the West Germans, with a mean intraindividual correlation of rho = 0.609, perceive a significantly greater East-West similarity between the group-related value hierarchies than the East Germans, with a mean rho = 0.400. Study 2 gives East German subjects either a Swiss (n = 58) or Polish (n = 59) frame of reference in the comparison between the categories German and East German. Whereas the Swiss frame of reference should arouse a need for uniqueness, the Polish frame of reference should arouse a need for similarity. In accordance with expectations, the Swiss frame of reference significantly reduces the correlative similarity between German and East German from a mean rho = 0.703 in a control group (n = 59) to a mean rho = 0.518 in the experimental group. Contrary to expectations, the Polish frame of reference does not lead to an increase in perceived similarity (mean rho = 0.712).

The purpose of this study was to investigate the personality characteristics in adolescents with SLE. The research design is a case-control study by means of the Rorschach Method and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale. Study group: 30 female adolescents with lupus, 12–17 years of age. The SLE Disease Activity Index was administered during the period of psychological evaluation. Control group: 32 nonpatient adolescents were matched for age, sex, and socioeconomic level. In the Wechsler Intelligence Scale the mean IQ of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group (77 and 98, respectively, p < .001). In the Rorschach, the lupus patients showed greater difficulty in interpersonal interactions, although they displayed the resources to process affect and to cope with stressful situations. A positive moderate correlation (p = .069) between the activity index of the disease and the affect constriction proportion of the Rorschach was observed: the higher the SLEDAI score, the lower the capacity to process affect. There is a negative correlation between the activity index of the disease and the IQ (p = .001): with a higher activity index of the disease, less intellectual resources are available.

Abstract. This quasi-experimental study examined the effects of exposure to a computer game on arousal and subsequent task performance. After inducing a state of low arousal, participants were assigned to experimental or control conditions via self-selection. Members of the experimental group played a computer game for five minutes; subjects in the control group spent the same amount of time awaiting further instructions. Participants who were exposed to the computer game showed significantly higher levels of arousal and performed significantly better on a subsequent cognitive task. The pattern of results was not influenced by the participants' prior experience with the game. The findings indicate that mood-management processes associated with personal media use at the workplace go beyond the alteration of arousal and affect subsequent cognitive performance.

Introduction:Psychological impact of Therapeutic Patient Education (TPE) for dialysis patients is rarely evaluated since the focus of many studies is on medical variables (i.e., adherence).Objectives:The aims of this study were: 1) to estimate the impact of a TPE program on knowledge, depression and anxiety, 2) to examine change in knowledge as a mediator of the effects of a TPE program on mental health.Method:This study was conducted in three hemodialysis units and comprised two groups: an experimental group with education and a control group with routine care. The program was based of 5 educative sessions. Knowledge, depressive and anxious symptoms were assessed with self-reported outcomes measured before and 3 months after the program.Results:The sample comprised 125 patients. Knowledge about vascular access and nutrition (p < 0.01) and depressive symptoms increased in the experimental group (p < 0.01). Analysis of mediation showed that changes in knowledge about vascular access were a significant mediator of the effects of the program on depressive symptoms (F = 4.90;p = 0.01).Discussion:Knowledge acquired during an educational program could lead to an emotional change. Improving knowledge often leads to an awareness of the risks that can modify the psychological state of patients by reminding them of their vulnerability. This study shows that it is required to be attentive to the way of transmitting knowledge. It’s necessary adapting this transmission to the needs of patients and promoting the acquisition of psychosocial competence too.Conclusion:This study shows that knowledge acquired during an educational program can lead to an emotional change in the short term. A long-term follow-up of the population should be interesting to observe these emotional effects.
