Öğe Comparisons of serum somatotropin, 3,5,3 '-triiodothyronine, thyroxine, total protein and free fatty acid levels in newborn Sakiz lambs separated from or suckling their dams(KARGER, 2005) Firat, A; Ozpinar, A; Serpek, B; Haliloglu, SObjective: To determine the effects on serum somatotropin, 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T-3), thyroxine (T-4), free fatty acids (FFAs) and total protein levels of different feedings and age in Sakiz sheep that have a high twin-bearing rate supported by estrous synchronization. Methods: 20 newborn lambs were used in the study. Lambs were divided into 2 equal groups. The lambs in 1 group were separated from their dams following parturition, and those in other group were kept together with their dams. Separated lambs were fed commercial cow's milk for 2.5 weeks. After that, they were fed a milk substitute, hay and concentrated supplement for 2 months, and from the end of the 2 months they were fed hay and concentrated supplement. The lambs in other group were kept together with their dams only during the day and in addition were fed hay and concentrated supplement. After 2 months, they were maintained feeding only on hay and concentrated supplement. Blood samples were taken from vena jugularis of lambs at 12 and 24-48 h, and 14, 28, 42 and 56-90 days after parturition. Serum samples were analyzed for somatotropin by enzyme immunoassay, for T-3 and T-4 by radioimmunoassay, and for total protein and FFA by a spectrophotometric method. Results: Serum somatotropin levels were insignificantly different between the lambs with and without their dams. Serum T-3 levels were generally lower in the separated lambs than those in other group. Serum T-4 levels were significantly lower in the separated lambs 48 h and 90 days after parturition than those in other group. Serum FFAs were insignificantly different between 2 groups. Serum total protein concentrations were lower in the separated lambs than lambs kept together with their dams (significantly at 12 and 48 h and 14 days). Conclusion: Ingestion of colostrum and dam milk markedly affected serum total protein levels, but body weight and serum somatotropin levels were insignificantly affected. Also serum T-3 and T-4 levels markedly decreased with advancing age. Serum FFA levels were not affected by the trial. Copyright (C) 2005 S. Karger AG, Basel.Öğe The effect of sex on some blood biochemical parameters in geese(INDIAN VETERINARY JOURNAL, 2004) Haliloglu, S; Cinar, MLimited studies were reported concerning biochemical parameters of plasma of geese. The reference values for any plasma parameter may be influenced by sex and physiological status of the animal (Rowland et al., 1975). No information is available on the effect of sex on the blood chemistry of geese in particular. Therefore, we attempted to establish some baseline values on blood chemistry of male and female geese.Öğe Effects of smoking on clinical parameters and the gingival crevicular fluid levels of IL-6 and TNF-alpha in patients with chronic periodontitis(BLACKWELL MUNKSGAARD, 2004) Erdemir, EO; Duran, I; Haliloglu, SObjective: Smoking is an important environmental risk factor for the initiation and progression of periodontal diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of smoking on clinical parameters and the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) contents of the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) levels in patients with chronic periodontitis. Material and Methods: The study base consisted of 41 patients including 22 volunteer current smokers with an age range of 32-59 (44.41+/-7.88) years and 19 volunteer non-smokers with an age range of 36-59 (46.94+/-6.07) years. The first month after non-surgical periodontal therapy was accepted as the baseline of the study. The clinical parameters including plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL) were recorded and GCF samples were collected for analysis of GCF contents of IL-6 and TNF-alpha levels. At the 3rd and 6th months, all of these procedures were repeated. Results: In smokers, only CAL was significantly higher at the 3rd month compared with non-smokers (p<0.05). GI and BOP were higher in non-smokers than smokers in both periods (p<0.05). PI showed increases from the initial to the 6th month in smokers (p<0.05). Although the differences between two groups with regard to IL-6 and TNF-alpha were not significant (p>0.05), the total amount of TNF-alpha in GCF decreased from the initial to the 6th month in smokers (p<0.05). There were no significant correlations between the mean total amount of IL-6 and TNF-alpha in GCF and clinical parameters in both evaluation periods in smokers (p>0.05). Conclusion: The present study demonstrated that cigarette smoking increases the amount of dental plaque over time in smokers and does not influence GCF contents of IL-6 and TNF-alpha.Öğe Vitamin levels in premature and newborn calves(INDIAN VETERINARY JOURNAL, 2005) Irmak, K; Haliloglu, S[Abstract not Available]
