Omental anatomy of non-human primates

Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2005
The anatomy and physiology of the omentum provide optimum reconstructive characteristics and the omentum may be used as a free or pedicled autograft, but also as the receptor site for engraftment of glandular islets. Our purpose was the study of the omental anatomy of non-human primate (NHP), in order to determine an experimental model for pancreatic ...

Ophthalmic Lesions in Non-Human Primates

Veterinary Pathology, 1971
Over a 2-year period a number of spontaneous ophthalmic lesions were noted in non-human primates. These included lesions in baboons, old world monkeys, and chimpanzees. The lesions were divided into general etiologic categories of congenital, inflammatory, traumatic, degenerative, and undetermined.

Sequential learning in non-human primates

Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 2001
Sequential learning plays a role in a variety of common tasks, such as human language processing, animal communication, and the learning of action sequences. In this article, we investigate sequential learning in non-human primates from a comparative perspective, focusing on three areas: the learning of arbitrary, fixed sequences; statistical learning;

Use of florfenicol in non‐human primates

Journal of Medical Primatology, 2004
Abstract:  Studies were undertaken to determine if florfenicol, an antimicrobial agent structurally similar to chloramphenicol, could be used as an effective broad spectrum antibiotic for the treatment of bacterial infections in primates. Florfenicol was developed as an injectable antibiotic for use in cattle on an every other day dosing schedule.

Hepatitis viruses in non‐human primates

Journal of Medical Primatology, 2006
AbstractBackground  Previous epidemiological studies of rural human populations in Gabon reveal a high prevalence of human hepatitis A, B, C and D viruses. In order to investigate the prevalence of the blood‐born hepatitis viruses in apes and monkeys living in the same area, we performed an epidemiological survey of HBV, HCV and HDV in wild‐born non ...

Melioidosis in Imported Non-Human Primates

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1970
In 1969, five cases of melioidosis in three separate outbreaks were diagnosed in nonhuman primates in the United States. In the first outbreak, two stump-tailed macaque monkeys (Macaca arctoides) developed signs of the disease approximately 6 months after purchase. A third animal, a chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes), probably acquired its infection from one

Experimental norovirus infections in non‐human primates

Journal of Medical Virology, 2004
AbstractNoroviruses, with Norwalk virus as the prototype strain, are the most common cause of viral gastroenteritis in people of all ages. Limited information on the immunology of Norovirus infections has been obtained by studies both in the natural setting and in experimentally infected volunteers.

CyberBrain - A Preliminary Experience on Non Human Primate

Proceedings of the 2nd International Congress on Neurotechnology, Electronics and Informatics, 2014
The study of abnormal electrical activity of the brain, such as epilepsy, is attracting more and more interest for its wide impact on the population. Intracranial EEG recording (electrocorticogaphy; EcoG) and direct cortical stimulation (DCS) are, nowadays, the most accurate and reliable techniques to map cortical function and to identify the ...

Non‐human primate models of multiple sclerosis

Immunological Reviews, 2001
Summary: The phylogenetic proximity between non‐human primate species and humans is reflected by a high degree of immunological similarity. Non‐human primates therefore provide important experimental models for disorders in the human population that are caused by the immune system, such as autoimmune diseases.

SIV Cardiomyopathy in Non-Human Primates

Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2001
While cardiac myocytes are not generally considered conventional cellular targets of retroviral infection with HIV-1, the increasing recognition of AIDS related cardiomyopathy has raised important questions as to the viral pathogenesis. Our laboratory has explored the role of simian immunodeficiency viral (SIV) infection in non-human primates as a ...
