Effects of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli on haematological parameters, immunity, gut microbiota profile and metabolites in weaned Ningxiang piglets
The purpose of this study was to clarify the response of Ningxiang pig against pathogenic enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
(ETEC) during the weaning period. Sixteen weaned Ningxiang pigs, were selected from one litter at 28 days and randomly
allocated into two groups, with or without oral administration of ETEC (109 colony forming units/piglet/d) for two
consecutive days. Blood and intestinal samples were collected after sacrifice to investigate the influence for systemic and
gastrointestinal tract influences
The Echocardiographic Tei-index Compared to Transpulmonary Thermodilution Measurement With Different Hemodynamic Biomodels
Cardiopulmonary interaction plays an essential role in critically ill pediatric patients. Accurate assessment of cardiac output and myocardial function has been considered vital in the successful treatment of any such patients. There are several techniques for monitoring cardiac output in seriously ill patients. The use of transpulmonary thermodilution technique for cardiac output measurements via in-dwelling pulmonary arterial catheter is considered one of the most reliable methods of hemodynamic monitoring in paediatric patients.
