Öğe Effect of Presence of Corpus Luteum at the Beginning of Ovsynch Protocol on Pregnancy Rates in Lactating Dairy Cows(KAFKAS UNIV, VETERINER FAKULTESI DERGISI, 2012) Cinar, Mahmut; Guzeloglu, Aydin; Erdem, HuseyinThe aim of the study was to investigate the effect of presence of CL at the beginning of Ovsynch protocol on pregnancy rates in lactating dairy cows. A total of 218 lactating Holstein cows that were at least 45 days postpartum with no reproductive disorders were used in the present study. Cows were divided into two experimental groups according to the presence and absence of corpus luteum (CL) on the first day of transrectal ultrasonography (day 0). Cows having CL (CL (+)) were randomly allocated to two subgroups as CL (+)/A and CL (+)/B. Cows in CL (+)/A group (n = 74) were treated with Ovsynch protocol, while cows in CL (+)/B group (n = 78) were treated with PGF(2 alpha) on the first day of examination and seven days later Ovsynch protocol was started. Cows having no CL (CL (-)) (n = 66) were left untreated on the first day of examination and Ovsynch protocol was started seven days later. Pregnancy rates were found 23%, 25.6% and 40.9% in CL (+)/A, CL (+)/B and CL (-) groups, respectively. The pregnancy rate in CL (-) group was significantly higher than those of CL (+)/A, and CL (+)/B groups (P<0.05). It is suggested that the success of Ovsynch synchronization protocol may be related to starting time of the protocol and to ovarian physiology in cyclic dairy cows.Öğe Evaluation of lumbar lordosis in symptomatic individuals and comparative analysis of six different techniques: a retrospective radiologic study(Springer, 2023) Tekeli, Mustafa; Erdem, Huseyin; Kilic, Nazire; Boyan, Neslihan; Oguz, Ozkan; Soames, Roger W.Purpose The aim of this study; evaluate lumbar lordosis (LL) in symptomatic individuals with six different techniques and to examine the techniques comparatively. Thus, to provide an overview of lumbal lordosis and techniques.Methods Cobb L1-L5, Cobb L1-S1, Posterior Tangent, tangential radiologic assessment of lumbar lordosis (TRALL), vertebral centroid measurement of lumbar lordosis (CLL) and Risser Ferguson measurement techniques were used to assess LL from radiographs of 175 symptomatic adults. Correlations between techniques and relationship between the measurements obtained, gender and age were analyzed. Also interclass correlation (ICC) analyzed. Bland-Altman plots were performed to compare the techniques with Cobb.Results ICC for all methods were greater than 0.96. For each method, no difference in LL was observed with respect to gender or age (p > 0.05). High positive correlation was observed between the Risser Ferguson, Posterior Tangent, Cobb L1-L5, Cobb L1-S1 and CLL techniques (p < 0.001), and moderate positive correlation between TRALL and all other techniques (p < 0.001).Conclusion In this study, it was found that the mean lumbar lordosis values of symptomatic participants were lower than most of the other asymptomatic studies in the literature and there was no significant difference in lumbar lordosis values in terms of gender and age in symptomatic individuals. Based on statistical findings, Risser Ferguson can be used to assess LL. These results and the data obtained as a result of the comparative examination of techniques according to age groups and gender will benefit clinicians and those working in the field by providing a better understanding LL.
