The Use of Rabbits Used to Propagate Human Lice for Research
Comp Med. 2024 Mar 7. doi: 10.30802/AALAS-CM-23-000073. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe globally important human diseases of trench fever, epidemic typhus, and relapsing fever are vectored by the human louse Pediculus humanus humanus. Although these conditions are epidemically quiescent at present, they persist in socially dysfunctional situations of war, deprivation, and crowding. The taxonomically closely related head louse, Pediculus humanus capitis, does not respect economic or social status and is quite common in most countries. The 2 types of lice are now recognized as conspecific ecotypes of a single species. Whil...

A Feasibility Study for a Novel trans-infraorbital Canal Approach to the Maxillary Nerve in Pigs ( < em > Sus domesticus < /em > )
This study evaluated the feasibility of a novel maxillary nerve block approach. In part I, cadavers were used to determine anatomic landmarks and assess maxillary nerve dye staining by using 0.03 mL kg-1 of a 1:10 mixture of commercial food dye and 0.5% bupivacaine. In part II, 10 additional pig cadavers underwent bilateral ultrasound-guided maxillary nerve blocks by using trans-infraorbital canal needle placement. The maxillary nerve was harvested and scored based on degree of staining (0 and 1, absent or incomplete staining; 2, staining; >1 cm circumferentially). Intracranial and intraconal spread of dye was evaluated...
