PURPOSE: To investigate the sedative and clinical effects of the pharmacopuncture with xylazine, compared to the conventional dose of a intramuscular injection in dogs.METHODS: Twelve dogs were randomly distributed in two groups of six animals and treated as follows: control group (X-IM): 1mg kg(-1) of xylazine given intramuscularly (IM); pharmacopuncture group (X-Yintang): 0.1mg kg(-1) of xylazine diluted to 0.5 mL of saline injected into the Yin Tang acupoint. Heart rate, cardiac rhythm (ECG), systolic arterial blood pressure (SABP), respiratory rate (RR), rectal temperature (RT), blood glucose concentration, degree of sedation and adverse effects were evaluated.RESULTS: Sedative effect was observed in both groups. The degree of sedation was greater in X-IM only at 15 min when compared with X-Yintang group. Cardiovascular established was observed in X-Yintang group, while marked reduction in the HR and increased incidence of ECG abnormalities were detected in X-IM. In both treatment groups, minimal changes were observed in relation to SABP, RR, RT and blood glucose. High incidence (66%) of vomiting was observed in X-IM, while this adverse effect was absent in X-Yintang.CONCLUSION: Pharmacopuncture with xylazine induced clinically relevant sedative effects in dogs, with the advantage of reduction of undesirable side effects associated with alpha(2)-agonists, including bradycardia, cardiac arrhythmias, and emesis.

O bulbo rostroventrolateral (RVL) é uma estrutura importante para o controle cardiovascular. Em ratos espontaneamente hipertensos (SHR), há evidências de que a transmissão glutamatérgica descendente do RVL aos neurônios pré-ganglionares simpáticos é maior quando comparada com os ratos Wistar Kyoto (WKY). A adrenomedulina (ADM) é um peptídeo de 52 aminoácidos que tem como funções: vasodilatação, broncodilatação e neurotransmissão no sistema nervoso central (SNC). Dados da literatura têm demonstrado que a ADM quando microinjetada no RVL de ratos normotensos anestesiados ou normotensos não anestesiados promove aumento da pressão arterial. Ademais, também já foi demonstrado que a microinjeção bilateral no RVL do antagonista de ADM (adrenomedulina 22-52) em SHR anestesiados foi capaz de reduzir significantemente a pressão arterial, enquanto que não foi observado alterações da pressão arterial em ratos normotensos. Uma vez que foi descrito que em SHR há um maior número de receptores de ADM no RVL quando comparado com ratos normotensos, esses dados obtidos são convergentes com a idéia de que maior número de receptores de ADM no RVL de SHR possam ser um dos fatores responsáveis pela hipertensão nestes animais. Entretanto, até o momento, não sabemos os efeitos da ADM no RVL de SHR não anestesiados, uma vez que a anestesia pode interferir com a resposta cardiovascular. Estudos anteriores demonstraram que o efeito pressor da ADM no RVL são dependentes de receptores glutamatérgicos, sugerindo uma interação entre a ADM e o glutamato (GLU). Assim, seria interessante estudar a interação entre ADM e a neurotransmissão glutamatérgica no RVL. Por isso, o presente estudo teve como objetivo estudar os efeitos da microinjeção de ADM no RVL e seu efeito sobre a resposta pressora do GLU em ratos normotensos e SHR conscientes...

The intervertebral disc disease is considered a major neurological disorder involving the spinal cord, being a disease commonly seen in dogs in clinical practice of small animals. The pathophysiology of most discopathies have not been fully elucidated, but it is known that the symptoms observed will depend on the severity of spinal cord compression and location of spinal injury, ranging from localized pain to complete paralysis. Through a detailed clinical examination and laboratory tests, we choose the most appropriate treatment for each patient, which can be conservative, through the use of anti-inflammatories, analgesics and acupuncture or surgical, through decompression techniques. Acupuncture, therapeutic method of ancient Chinese medicine, uses the stimulation of specific points on the body in order to balance the body's physiological. The action mechanism of acupuncture in discopathies has not been fully elucidated, but its analgesic effects, anti-inflammatory and restoration of sensory and motor function are known, showing results as good as surgical therapy

Pain control is an important aspect of equine medicine. Musculoskeletal and gastrointestinal diseases are the most important clinical and surgical painful situations in this specie. In these cases, opioids have been used successfully for the treatment of pain, administered both local (intra-articular and epidural) and systemically. Otherwise, opioids, specially mu agonists like morphine, present important side effects in horses. Amongst these effects, CNS stimulation with increased motor activity and impairment of intestinal motility are observed in several cases. Therefore, adequate dosing of administration are essential for the safe use of opioids in horses

Nowadays, meditation had become larger than the mystic’s scope, entering the academy through the scientific interest in this topic. Results documented for so many centuries or the experienced monks that practice meditation for a long time are the aims for researches that want, ultimately, establish the real effects of such techniques upon the human body. Research has gone far, and many effects can be evaluated using more precise methods, specially in the medical field and neuroscience, which had greatly backed up new discoveries about the correlation between the mind, emotions, thoughts and the body, making so that mediation can walk the therapeutic ways and complementary health with more certainty and reliable results, as it is happening with acupuncture and yoga. Facing a promising scenario in the correlation between meditation and life’s quality, well being sensation and happiness, there is the possibility of using it in schools, since because of the difficulties and present challenges, those factors are not commonly associated with the acts of teaching and learning, and acupuncture and Yoga have more restrictions because of their own limitations of time and space necessary for their wide application. Therefore, the current study focused on contextualizing the meditation’s fundaments in the scientific perspective, and apply it, even if qualitatively, in two schools of Rio Claro municipality, researching 57 students from Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA). Therefore, it was chosen only one meditation tecnique to be applied on the treatment group. As for the control group, it perfomed normal breathing, i.e., without tecniques. The differences were then analyzed through the filmings of all the sessions of the meetings, counting the number of movements and the agitation among the students for the two groups. Another method of analysis was forms filled by both groups and the presence in a meeting at Unesp – Rio Claro. At the end,...
