Sarcocystis falcatula is a well-known cause of fatal pneumonia in some birds, particularly Old World psittacines.Here we describe fatal sarcosystosis due to S.falcatula in 3 penguins (Family Spheniscidae) under managed care, Waxed Cotton Dressing including one African penguin (Spheniscus demersus), and two Southern rockhopper penguins (Eudyptes chr
Lichen Striatus on an Adult
Lichen striatus is a well-known, acquired, self-healing, linear inflammatory dermatosis.Its etiology remains unclear.It rarely affects adults, and it is characterized by abrupt onset of coalescent papules, in a linear disposition, usually on the extremities.It is usually localized and asymptomatic; however, when the onset occurs in adulthood, iPhon
Phytohormonal dynamics in the abscission zone of Korla fragrant pear during calyx abscission: a visual study
IntroductionPhytohormones play a crucial role in regulating the abscission of plant organs and tissues.MethodsIn this study, the ultrastructure of the sepals of Korla fragrant pears was observed using a transmission electron microscope, and high-performance liquid and gas chromatography were used to analyze the dynamic changes of phytohormones in t
Pyrolysis characteristics and kinetic analysis of coconut shell and nutmeg shell for potential source of bioenergy
This study explores the pyrolytic characteristics of coconut shells and nutmeg shells as potential bioenergy sources, addressing a research gap in comparing their energy potential.It employs analytical techniques like Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Analysis, and Thermogravimetric Analysis for surface morphol
Facial palsy after administration of immune checkpoint inhibitors: case report, literature review and clinical care management
Neurological immune-related adverse events (irAEs) due to Timing Pointer immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are rare complications of immunotherapy, particularly dreadful for patients and clinical teams.Indeed, neurological irAEs are potentially severe and their diagnosis require prompt recognition and treatment.Additionally, the spectrum of neurol
