Item Conformação corporal e bioquímica sanguínea de cadelas adultas castradas alimentadas ad libitium(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2009-12-15) GUIMARÃES, Patrícia Lorena da Silva Neves; STRINGHINI, José Henrique; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8505634095383289; BORGES, Naída Cristina; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9181279951885005; FIORAVANTI, Maria Clorinda Soares; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8772502020076257The obesity is a physical condition more frequent in each time in the population of pets, being able to contribute for the sprouting of systemic alterations capable to compromise the health of the animals. Ahead of the displayed one, this experiment was developed in the Veterinarian Hospital of the Federal University of Goiás, with 26 adult female dogs, castrated and without defined brand, they had been fed with commercial diet ad libitum, during 36 weeks, and had biweekly accompaniment of the nutritional state by means of clinical parameters (body condition score - BCS), morphometrics (abdominal perimeter, thoracic perimeter, thigh perimeter) and for the equations for determination of the percentage of corporal fat and index of corporal mass (IMC1=weightkg/height of withersm; IMC2=weightkg/hight of withers2 m; IMC3=weightkg/spine lengthm; IMC4=weightkg/spine length2 m). The metabolic accompaniment was carried through, monthly, by means of evaluation of the serum biochemistry (glucose, urea, creatinin, albumin, triglycerides, total cholesterol and HDL). The objective of the work was to verify the associations between the morphometrics variables and the serum biochemistries, by means of the multivariate analysis of main components. In the results, bigger association between corporal weight was perceived, thoracic perimeter and of thigh. Moreover, associations between the IMC3 and IMC4 were verified, respectively, by abdominal perimeter and BCS. The percentage of corporal fat was antagonistic to the perimeter of the thigh and corporeal weight and was associated to BCS and IMC4. Related to the serum biochemistry, associations between glucose and creatinin had been observed; and between the total cholesterol and HDL. Antagonism of the albumin with triglycerides, total cholesterol and HDL was verified. Moreover, the percentage of weight gain and the urea texts had been inversely proportional to the concentrations of glucose and creatinin. The present study allowed to conclude that the morphometric, especially the measure of thoracic perimeter and the classification of body condition score constitute efficient methods of monitorament of the corporal conformation, and also, to conclude that, dogs submitted to the weight gain for a short period of time, had been capable to develop compensatory mechanisms of keeping the homeostasis of metabolism, keeping the biochemical concentrations inside of the values of reference.Item Produção lacrimal e densidade de células caliciformes conjuntivais em cães da raça SHIH-TZU(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2008-02-28) LIMA, Aline Maria Vasconcelos; ARAÚJO, Eugênio Gonçalves de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3919777570059928; BRITO, Luiz Augusto Batista; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3212353728321020; CHAVES, Nilo Sérgio Troncoso; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9218281815823682Considering the relevance of tear production and tear quality to the conservation of the corneal health, the present study aimed to evaluate tear production and conjunctival goblet cells density in Shih-tzu dogs. Thirty five grownup Shih-tzu dogs, including 33 females and 2 males, were subjected to Schirmer tear test 1 (STT-1) and Schirmer tear test 2 (STT-2). Among these dogs, fourteen females and one male were underwent to conjunctival biopsy for histologic evaluation of goblet cell density (GCD) and goblet cell index (GCI). The STT-1 mean values found were 19,66 ± 7,3 mm/min for left eye (LE) and 21,97 ± 5,7 mm/min for right eye (RE). The STT-2 mean values were 10,71 ± 6,1 mm/min and 9,14 ± 4,78 mm/min for LE and RE, respectively. The GCD mean values found were 13,64 ± 3,44 goblet cells/50 epithelial cells for LE and 13, 64 ± 4,07 goblet cells/50 epithelial cells for RE. The GCIs correspondent were 0,27 ± 0,069 and 0,27 ± 0,081 for LE and RE, respectively. There was significant difference between LE and RE STT-1 values. There was not significant difference between eyes for STT-2, GCD and GCI values. STT-1 and STT-2 values did not influence significantly GCI values. STT-1 and STT-2 values are within of the pattern considered normal, but the GCD and GCI mean values are lower than those values described in literature for healthy dogs of other breeds. The conjunctival specimens histological evaluation was accepted as convenient, which demonstrated squamous metaplasic areas in 83,3% of the specimens. Within 44% of these, squamous metaplasia was predominantly associated with mononuclear inflammatory infiltrate.
