    Abstract: Reasons for performing study : Subchondral cystic lesions of the medial femoral condyle (SCMFC) are well documented in horses 3 years; arthroscopic debridement or enucleation of the cyst is currently the surgical treatment of choice. However, studies of occurence and outcome following surgery in older horses are lacking. Objective : To identify factors important in outcome for horses with SCMFC treated by arthroscopic debridement. Hypothesis : Age of horse at presentation has a significant influence on return to work following arthroscopic treatment for SCMFC. Clinical and diagnostic findings are also significant with respect to prognosis. Methods : A retrospective review of medical records from 6 equine referral centres identified 85 horses that underwent arthroscopic debridement of SCMFC. Clinical examination, radiographic and arthroscopic findings were analysed together with follow‐up data. Univariable analysis and multivariable logistic regression models were used to determine factors affecting return to soundness. Event‐time analysis was performed to evaluate return to work. Results : Older horses ( 〉 3 years) were less likely to return to soundness (P = 0.02) or to work (P = 0.04) than younger horses ( 〉 3 years). Of 39 horses age 0‐3 years, 25 (64%, 95% CI 49‐79%) returned to soundness. Of 46 horses age 〉 3 years, 16 (35%, 95% CI 21‐49%) returned to soundness. In addition, cartilage damage at sites other than the SCMFC negatively affected prognosis (P = 0.05). The hospital where treatment was performed had no influence on return to soundness. Conclusions : Older horses carry a worse prognosis for both return to soundness and return to work. Potential relevance : It is important for clients to be made aware of the difference in outcome between age groups.

    Abstract: Objectives: To review the outcome of equine shoulder osteochondrosis (OC) with surgical or conservative treatment. Methods: Retrospective study of 32 horses, less than two years of age, with scapulohumeral joint (SHJ) OC. The lesion severity was graded based on measurements taken from lateromedial radiographs. Follo–up information was obtained from racing records or telephone conversations with owners. Successful outcome was defined as the ability of the horse to perform its intended use. Results: Sixteen of 32 horses were affected bilaterally (48 joints). Eleven of 16 horses with bilateral OC underwent arthroscopic surgery; five had bilateral arthroscopy, six had unilateral arthroscopy of the most severely affected joint. Eight of 16 horses with unilateral OC underwent arthroscopy. The overall outcome was ′poor′. Only 15.4% (4/26) of potential race horses started a race, whereas 67% (4/6) non-racehorses were ′sound′ for the intended use. Statistical analysis evaluating the effect of breed on outcome showed a statistically significant difference. There were no significant interactions between outcome and gender, affected limb, unilateral versus bilateral involvement, treatment or severity of the radiographic lesion. However, radiographic lesion severity on the humerus and glenoid showed significant positive correlation. Clinical significance: The overall poor prognosis for shoulder OC in young horses appears to be, in part, dependent on breed and intended use. There was not any difference in outcome between surgically and conservatively treated horses.

    Abstract: Meat tenderness is the single most important quality attribute in consumer acceptance studies of meat eating quality. Several mechanical-based techniques have been developed to provide an objective measure of meat tenderness that have good correlation with sensory tenderness, as assessed by trained taste panel. The classic Warner-Bratzler shear force technique (WBSF) has shown correlations with sensory tenderness in the range of -0.39 to -0.77 (Van Oeckel et al ., 1999; Shackelford et al ., 1999a), whilst the Volodkevitch bite test attempts to imitate the incisor biting action by a compression method. A rapid slice shear force (SSF) test, which uses only one steak and hot meat (significant benefits in a commercial environment), had a stronger correlation with taste panel tenderness scores than WBSF (Shackelford et al ., 1999b). The Meat Industry Research Institute of New Zealand (MIRINZ) test results, transformed into categories, was highly correlated (-0.97) with sensory tenderness (Bickerstaffe et al ., 2001). The objective of this study was to evaluate the associations between objective physical measures (SSF, MIRINZ and Volodkevitch) and taste panel tenderness scores in beef.

    Abstract: This study was conducted in order to investigate the mechanical effects of high density polyethylene screw hole inserts in 4.5 mm Dynamic Compression Plate (DCP) – synthetic bone constructs. A mid-shaft ‘osteotomy’ was created in synthetic bone cylinders. The bisecting ‘osteotomy’ was reduced using six-hole broad DCPs and 4.5 mm cortical bone screws. The screws adjacent to the ‘osteotomy’ were placed using a loadguide. The remaining screws were placed in neutral position. High density polyethylene DCP screw hole inserts were incorporated with each screw in neutral position, in the experimental group. The bone plate constructs were tested in four point cyclical bending with the plates loaded at 2,000 Newtons, for a total of 6,000 cycles. Osteotomy gap was measured at 3,000 and 6,000 cycles. Screw head deflection adjacent to the osteotomy was measured. Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric testing was used for statistical comparisons. There was significantly less gapping at the osteotomy site in the treatment group after 3,000 cycles (0.49 +/- 0.18 mm [control] vs. 0.06 +/- 0.14 mm [treated] , P=0.02) and 6,000 cycles (0.6 +/- 0.18 mm [control] vs. 0.1 +/- 0.22 mm [treated] , P=0.02). The screws adjacent to the gap were significantly more deformed in the control group than those in the treated constructs (3.63 +/- 1.81 [control] vs. 1.06 +/- 1.55 [treated] , P=0.0002). The polyethylene inserts improved the interface between bone plate and screw head, resulting in decreased relative movement of the implant and bone. The polyethylene inserts also resulted in less bending of the loaded screws.

    Abstract: Reasons for performing study : Fracture repair and arthrodesis in horses require rigid fixation in order to achieve early post operative comfort. The locking compression plate (LCP) was designed to allow greater stability and less periosteal disruption than conventional plates. Objective : To describe a series of clinical cases in which the LCP was used for fracture stabilisation or arthrodesis. Methods : Medical records, radiographs and follow‐up for 31 horses having fracture stabilisation or arthrodesis with the LCP were reviewed. Reasons for treatment included fracture of the olecranon (n = 2), metatarsal III (n = 2), ilial shaft (n = 1), femur (n = 2), radius (n = 2), medial condylar (n = 5) and complex lateral condylar (n = 1); or arthrodesis of the metacarpophalangeal joint (n = 8), proximal interphalangeal joint (n = 8) and carpus (n = 2). Results : Of the 31 horses, 27 were discharged from the hospital. Complications included incisional infection (32%), implant infection (19%), implant loosening/breakage (22%), contralateral limb laminitis (16%), colic (3%) and diarrhoea (3%). Follow‐up was available on all horses with at least 6 weeks of follow‐up ranging up to 25 months. Of the 31 horses, 25 are sound for intended purpose, one is lame and 5 were subjected to euthanasia for complications associated with the original injury. Conclusions : The LCP is an acceptable means of fracture stabilisation and arthrodesis in the horse. Potential relevance : The LCP should be considered for difficult fracture configurations and arthrodeses, especially when increased stability of the fixation is needed.

    Abstract: A combination of fluid-inclusion and geochemical analyses was conducted on rocks and reservoir fluids to develop an improved understanding of downdip-oil potential in a mature exploration play, onshore Abu Dhabi, UAE. Exploration for oil in the region is complicated by low-permeability carbonate reservoirs, poor seismic imaging, and complex hydrocarbon-maturation and -migration histories. In addition, a broad range of fluid properties, including gas, condensate, and high-°API oil, makes evaluation of the reservoir fluid phase difficult. In this challenging environment, geochemical and fluid-inclusion techniques are effective tools for identifying downdip oil potential from gas-cap fluids and reservoir-rock samples. Fluid-inclusion data are used to develop a hydrocarbon-emplacement history, which constrains the distribution of fluids throughout the exploration area. In some areas, undersaturated gas inclusions trapped at present-day temperatures suggest a low chance for downdip oil. Conversely, other structures contain oil inclusions that have been displaced recently by saturated gas, suggesting good potential for downdip oil. Geochemical analyses of recovered fluids were used independently to predict the likelihood of down-dip oil. These combined techniques were placed in a geologic framework to regionally risk the potential for downdip oil throughout the exploration area. This framework enables improved resource evaluation and prioritization of exploration efforts in areas of the play where a high probability of downdip oil exists.

    Abstract: A study of the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) properties of three bisfluorene-cored dendrimers in the solid state is reported. The results show that the dendron type has a strong impact on the photoluminescence quantum yield and affects the ASE threshold, the optical gain, and loss coefficients. Optically pumped distributed feedback lasers operating in the blue spectral region were fabricated by spin coating the dendrimer films on top of a two-dimensional corrugated fused silica substrate. A best lasing threshold of 4.5μJ∕cm2 and a slope efficiency of 8.3% were obtained, which demonstrate the high potential of these materials for laser applications.
