DON AGUSTÍN NIETO CABALLERO ANDANTE DE LA EDUCACIÓN

Entre los pocos maestros inolvidables del autor figura don Agustin Nieto Caballero, un ilustre educador bogotano que, a partir de las teorias psicologicas, pedagogicas y filosoficas de Jhon Dewey, Ovide Decroly, Maria Montesori y Henri Bergson, instituyo en Colombia la Escuela Nueva, y fundo con otros colombianos no menos notables, en 1914, el Gimnasio Moderno que tanta influencia ha tenido en el desarrollo edeucativo del pais y de America Latina. El presente articulom, a la vez que destaca el aporte de Nieto Caballero a la luz de las ideas fundamentales de sus mentores, rinde homenaje al Maestro que hizo posible una audaz renovacion de la educacion colombiana

Morphometric characteristics of the bone tissue structure in white Volga guineafowls

This article presents the results of the analysis of the morphometric structure of white Volga guineafowl's bone tissue. Histoarchitectonics of guineafowl bones' compact tissue is presented by circulatory-parallel structure; mixed, osteon, chaotic, and radial structure has been noted in many sectors and areas of bone. There are 4 ways of osteon arrangement in long bone's compact tissue of guineafowls: as zones, islands, scattered, and interspersed with circulatory-parallel structures. The walls of deep-lying osteons in the bones of birds under research (regardless of their age) are thicker than those of superficial osteons. The cross-section dimension of large Haversian canals in perimedullary zone in all long bones is bigger than in subperiosteal zone. © 2015 Kulikov et al

Clinical control of packed RBC transfusion in acute surgical pathology such as gastric dilation and volvulus in dogs

The main goal of the present work was the analysis of peripheral blood in case of surgical pathology in dogs with gastric dilation and volvulus as well as correction of post-operative state by RBC transfusion. Scientific supplies of domestic and foreign authors that influenced the use of blood transfusion and control of various types of correction in life-threatening conditions served as methodological basis of the scientific study. The studies used methods of clinical examination characterizing the pathogenetic aspects of the problem being studied. During the period of post-op observation of the animals anemia was detected on Day 1-7, thrombocytopenia on Day 1-3, as well as severe immunosuppression caused by the development of anesthesia and splenectomy, which was confirmed by lymphopenia and thrombocytopenia on Day 1-3. The study has shown that the use of packed red blood cells in the early post-op period reduces the severity of anemia, and the severity of the inflammatory process. Administration of donor red blood cells reduces immunosuppressive effect of splenectomy and effects of general anesthesia, triggers the production of platelets, reticulocytes, thereby stimulating cell proliferation to the reparative processes. The use of packed red blood cells in case of severe abdominal pathology in dogs in the post-op period is a promising direction for the development of hemotransfusion in the veterinary surgery

Клинический контроль трансфузионного переливания эритроцитарной массы при острой хирургической патологии, такой как дилатация желудка и вольвулус у собак.

В качестве методологической основы научного исследования послужили научные материалы отечественных и зарубежных авторов, оказавшие влияние на применение переливания крови и контроль различных видов коррекции при угрожающих жизни состояниях. В исследованиях использовались методы клинического обследования, характеризующие патогенетические аспекты изучаемой проблемы. В течение периода послеоперационного наблюдения у животных была выявлена анемия на 1-7 день, тромбоцитопения на 1-3 день, а также выраженная иммуносупрессия, вызванная развитием анестезии и спленэктомии, что было подтверждено лимфопенией и тромбоцитопенией на день 1-3. Исследование показало, что использование эритроцитарной массы в раннем послеоперационном периоде снижает степень анемии и степень воспалительного процесса. Введение донорских эритроцитов снижает иммуносупрессивный эффект спленэктомии и эффекты общей анестезии, запускает производство тромбоцитов, ретикулоцитов, тем самым стимулируя пролиферацию клеток к репаративным процессам. Использование упакованных эритроцитов при тяжелой патологии брюшной полости у собак в послеоперационном периоде является перспективным направлением развития гемотрансфузии в ветеринарной хирургии

The morphological aspects of bone marrow of Guinea fowl of the Volga white breed in postembryonic ontogenesis.

The paper presents materials on age-related morphology of the bone marrow of Guinea fowl of the Volga white breed. The bone marrow is placed in the cancellous cells, and in the postembryonic period its absolute mass increases, and the relative weight, on the contrary, decreases. The highest content of the bone marrow in the skeleton of a Guinea fowl is observed in the period from the 1-st till the 60-th days of life. The volume of the bone marrow in the male Guinea fowl is higher than in the female Guinea fowl on 1,7+0,15%. The main mass of the bone marrow in a newborn Guinea fowl is placed in the peripheral skeleton, and more than 45% in the humeral, femoral and tibial bones. As for the axial skeleton, most of it is concentrated in the iliac bone and the lower jaw. Further the number of a bone marrow sharply increases and reaches a maximum to the 60-th day of life, consisting of 37.10+of 1.51% from the total content of the skeleton of a Guinea fowl. Then this figure stabilizes and to the 90-th day of life it consists of 34,90+1,89%. From the 180-th day of life the amount of a bone marrow in the skeleton begins to decrease and to the 365-th day it consists of only 23,10+of 1.11%. Microscopy of smears of a bone marrow finds an individual fat cells in it from the 60-th day of life. By the time of a puberty is observed a gradual replacement of a red marrow to the yellow and to 180-th day it is only 15,75+1,28%. By the 365-th of life a bone marrow is mostly yellow with a single foci of hematopoiesis in its structure, up to 8,31+1,56%

Prospects for the use of Probiotic-Sorption Drugs in the Complex Therapy of Sepsis in Cats

Background. Thestudyoftheeffectivenessof the probiotic-absorption drugs "Dilaxil" and "Sorbelact" in the treatment of cats with sepsis was carried out. The effectiveness of sepsis treatment was monitored by comparing the available immunological parameters (T-general; T-helpers; T-suppressors; IRI; 0-cells; PN; PI; B-general; CIX-general; CIX-large; CIX-medium; CIX-small; IL-1α, IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α) of blood. Objective.To analyzes the dynamics of the immunological parameters of the blood of cats in the control of the effectiveness of the treatment of sepsis. Methods. 48 cats with sepsis were divided into groups B1, B2 and B3 with the envelope method, according as they come into the veterinary clinic. Affected cats were the same sex, age and have the same time from since the emergence of the disease to arriving at veterinary clinic. They also have the same causes and development of disease, the severity and expression of the pathological process. Cats with sepsis were treated with various regimens; its effectiveness was evaluated based on immunological studies. Results. Probiotic-sorption drugs "Dilaxil» and" Sorbelact» in the intensive complex treatment of cats with sepsis, have a positive effect on the course of the inflammatory process, and on individual links of the pathogenetic process. It results in the healing process of the primary purulent focus, microflora, intoxication, and overall clinical improvement. This is indicated by a decrease in the average time of appearance of granulations by 6.19 days, the average time of wound healing of primary foci by 9.91 days, as well as acceleration in the time of overall clinical improvement by 5.78 days when compared with animals of group B1. Conclusion. The use of probiotic-sorption drugs in the complex treatment of surgical infections in animals, particularly in cats, is an evolutionarily justified approach, which requires further study in order to determine the indications for widespread use in surgical practice
