Two Cases of Bladder Adenocarcinoma After Augmentation Cystoplasty

To draw attention to the disregarded malignancy risk after ileocystoplasty, we present two cases of adenocarcinoma. The first case was metastatic at initial diagnosis. Despite chemotherapy, the condition progressed and the patient died at the 9th month. The second patient has received cystectomy followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Although the second patient was an immunosuppressed renal transplant, she was disease-free at the 27th month. As the malignancy risk after bladder augmentation is a proven fact, until the discovery of a proper diagnostic method, we recommend doing routine annual cystoscopic biopsy starting after the 10th year of ileocystoplasty

According to irrigation planinig into direction supply of water quantity at quantity of reservoried water using with GIS programme in Aydin country, at Aydin A2 irrigation area

Araştırma Aydın Ovası Sulama sahasında A2 ana sulama kanalı sınırlarının içerisinde yer alan tarım arazilerinin sulama suyu miktarının az olduğu dönemlerde mevcut suyun etkin kullanımının bilgisayar ortamında değerlendirilmesi amacıyla planlanmıştır. Bu amaçla, toprak özellikleri ve sınıfları, bitki deseni, mevcut sulama suyu miktarı ve fiili olarak kullanılan su miktarı değerleri bilgisayar ortamına getirildikten sonra ArcGIS 9.1 programı kullanılarak verilerin analizleri yapılmıştır. Yapılan çalışmalar sonucunda su tasarrufu sağlanması için arazi ürün deseni hububat ağırlıklı olarak tercih edilmelidir.In this Research, the aim that the agriculture of the lands are being found on border on Aydın lowland irrigation A2 main channel, quantity of irrigation water become a little. The purpose that productive using of water during this time periods edutainmented with using PC, soil classes,plant design, with the water is thinking to be used in planning, used actual water quantities, analysing of this datas using with using ArcGIS 9.1 Programme at the sufficient irrigation water to be found in time periods establishing the best using of irrigation water how we will use irrigation water in time periods. According to conclusion of our working for water incoming, land plant design should be cereals

Genetic Parameters Estimates for Lamb Growth Traits and Grease Fleece at First Shearing in Turkish Merino Sheep

The aim of the current study was to estimate genetic parameters for birth weight (BW), weaning weight (WW), yearling weight (YW), average daily gain from birth to weaning (ADG) and greasy fleece weight at first shearing (GFW), which are essential to design a selection programme for Turkish Merino sheep. Data and pedigree information of Turkish Merino sheep used in this study were collected at Marmara Animal Breeding Research Institute from 1996 to 2001. Genetic parameters were estimated with single- and two-trait analyses using restricted maximum likelihood (REML) with animal models. Estimates of direct heritability were 0.08 for BW. 0.12 for WW, 0.25 for YW, 0.11 for ADG and 0.08 for GFW. Estimates of maternal heritability were 0.09, 0.04, 0.03 and 0.04 for BW, WW, YW and ADG, respectively. Estimates of maternal permanent environmental variance as a proportion of phenotypic variance were 0.19, 0.08 and 0.09 for BW, WW and ADG, respectively. Estimates of direct genetic correlations among growth traits were positive and ranged from 0.56 to 0.98. GFW had a moderate to high positive direct genetic correlation with BW, WW and ADG but not with YW (0.19). Estimates of the correlation between direct and maternal genetic effects were negative and ranged from -0.63 to -0.92 for growth traits. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
