Título: Atuação da cinesioterapia na indução da neuroplasticidade na reabilitação de cães com lesão medular: revisão de literatura Abstract: Objective: To analyze the role of kinesiotherapy in stimulating neuroplasticity and promoting functional recovery in dogs with spinal cord injuries, highlighting its importance in neurological rehabilitation. Methodology: This is a qualitative and descriptive narrative review of the literature, conducted through searches of digital databases such as PubMed and SciELO, drawing primarily on articles published in the last 15 years, as well as classic references relevant to the theoretical framework of the topic. Results: The data obtained demonstrate that kinesiotherapy, through passive and active exercises, provides sensorimotor stimuli that activate activity-dependent plasticity and elevate neurotrophins. The analysis indicates that repetitive training modulates central pattern generators and strengthens remaining neural pathways, restoring gait and preventing complications. Conclusion: Kinesiotherapy proves to be an indispensable pillar in neurorehabilitation, achieving the goal of inducing adaptive synaptic reorganization and restoring locomotor autonomy in patients.

Osteopatia hipertrófica paraneoplásica por condrossarcoma pulmonar em cão: relato de caso

Título: Osteopatia hipertrófica paraneoplásica por condrossarcoma pulmonar em cão: relato de caso Abstract: Objectives: Hypertrophic osteopathy (OH) is a secondary disease characterized by periosteal proliferation. The paraneoplastic presentation of OH is associated with primary or metastatic lung tumors, such as chondrosarcoma. Clinical manifestations include pain, limb edema, and claudication. Diagnossis is made through radiographic examination, allowing visualization of the periosteal proliferation. Intevention for OH involves ablation of the neoplasm and vagotomy. Methodology: A male, mixed-breed dog was presented with bilateral edema of the thoracic limbs, pain, and lameness, with a history of chondrosarcoma 3 years prior. Radiographic were requested, identifying palisading periosteal proliferation in the diaphysis of the phalanges to the humerus, also detecting various pulmonary nodules. Prednisolone 20mg was prescribed for 24 days, resulting is a reduction of edema, pain, and lameness in the limbs. The findings were consistent with paraneoplastic OH, decribed as the main primary cause. Remission of chondrosarcoma 3 years after limb amputation without the aid of adjacent protocols was 893 days. Discussion: The findings were consistent with paraneoplastic OH, associated with lung neoplasia, described the main primary cause. Remission of chondrosarcoma 3 years after limb amputation without the aid of adjacente protocols was 893 days. Conclusion: Hypertrophic osteopathy, is caused by several factors, the main one being lung neoplasia. Its etiology is note clear, so further studies are needed. Tipo: Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso

Fatores associados à taxa de prenhez pós-transferência De embriões bovinos em condições de campo

Título: Fatores associados à taxa de prenhez pós-transferência De embriões bovinos em condições de campo Abstract: ABSTRACT Introduction: Embryo transfer (ET) is an essential biotechnology in bovine reproduction, boosting productive efficiency and genetic progress in herds. Understanding the factors that impact pregnancy rates, such as cryopreservation, reproductive management, and genetic characteristics, is crucial to maximize reproductive performance in commercial production systems. Objective: To evaluate the factors associated with pregnancy rate at 30 days post-embryo transfer (P30) in bovine recipients subjected to in vitro-produced embryo transfer, considering embryo type, semen type, donor and sire breed, embryonic stage, and corpus luteum functionality. Methodology: This was an observational and descriptive study conducted in a bovine reproductive biotechnology laboratory located in Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil, between January and February 2026. A total of 180 embryo transfer procedures were retrospectively analyzed. Animals not evaluated at P30 were excluded from the analysis. Data were subjected to descriptive and inferential analyses using the Chi- square test and Fisher’s Exact Test (p<0.05), considering limitations arising from sample imbalance among groups. Results: Fresh embryos showed a higher pregnancy rate (40.3%) compared to cryopreserved embryos (25.0%), although the difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conventional semen showed similar performance to sexed semen, with no statistical difference between groups. Recipients classified in the D1 and E1 categories showed higher pregnancy rates compared to other corpus luteum classifications. Regarding genetic factors, variation in pregnancy rates was observed among donors and sires, without a consistent pattern of superiority among the evaluated groups. Conclusion: The efficiency of embryo transfer under field conditions is influenced by multiple factors, with embryo type being the factor that demonstrated the largest numerical difference in pregnancy rates, highlighting the need for strict embryo and recipient selection, as well as standardized management protocols.

Inspeção ante mortem e post mortem principais ocorrências no abate sanitário de bovinos e prevenção: revisão de literatura

Título: Inspeção ante mortem e post mortem principais ocorrências no abate sanitário de bovinos e prevenção: revisão de literatura Abstract: Cattle farming in Brazil plays an essential role in the economy, with the country being one of the world's largest exporters of beef. Meat safety and quality are fundamental to public health and maintaining access to national and international markets. In the production process, ante-mortem and post-mortem inspections in slaughterhouses aim to ensure that only meat fit for human consumption is marketed, while also allowing the identification of pathological alterations that can lead to partial or total condemnation of carcasses. Thus, this review aimed to address the main pathological alterations responsible for partial and total condemnations of bovine carcasses during ante-mortem and post-mortem inspection, as well as to discuss the sanitary and economic impacts associated with these losses. The methodology used was based on a descriptive and qualitative literature review, carried out through the analysis of scientific articles, legislation, books, and publications related to the sanitary inspection of bovine carcasses, condemnations in slaughterhouses, and public health. Literature review has shown that sanitary inspection is fundamental to ensuring food safety and preventing zoonoses in the beef production chain. Carcass condemnations are associated with both infectious diseases and management and transportation failures, generating significant economic impacts. Therefore, the integration of inspection, good sanitary practices, and technical training is essential to reduce losses and ensure the quality of Brazilian livestock production.
