Anjing jantan ras dachsund (Teckel) berwarna hitam, berusia 4 tahun dengan bobot badan 7,5 kg dibawa pemiliknya datang ke klinik hewan dengan keluhan muntah berulang. Hasil pemeriksaan hematologi menunjukkan polisitemia, leukositosis dan jumlah granulosit yang tinggi. Hasil uji biokimia darah menunjukkan peningkatan pada aktivitas SGPT/ALT, GAMA-GT, total bilirubin, total protein, albumin, rasio ALB/GLOB dan rasio BUN/CRE. Hasil radiografi menunjukkan adanya bentukan membulat radiolucent didekat organ hati. Diagnosa kasus klinis pada anjing ini yaitu extrahepatic biliary duct obstruction dan terapi simptomatik dilakukan dengan memberikan gastroprotektan, antiemetik, serta obat-obatan untuk membantu memperbaiki fungsi hati. Pengobatan dilakukan selama 2 minggu dan menunjukan perbaikan pada organ hati berdasarkan hasil pemeriksaan biokimia darah, diikuti dengan tidak ada dilatasi kantung empedu pada radiogram.
Orangutan is a great ape that has anatomical and physiological aspects similar to those of gorillas and chimpanzees, although orangutan is more arboreal than other great apes. This research aims to study the morphofunctional characteristics of the lower hindlimb and foot muscles of Bornean orangutan and its relation to the type of locomotion and daily behavior. This research was conducted on the right leg of a male orangutan by observing the morphology of the lower hindlimb and foot muscles and observing the behavior of the Bornean orangutan through video observations. The results showed that digital flexor muscles are more developed than plantar flexor muscles as an adaptation towards arboreal activities that require finger flexor movements such as gripping tree branches. Orangutans have rudimentary hallux, which is related by the less developed intrinsic muscle and indicated by the way orangutan grips tree branches dominantly using digits II-V. At a certain time, male Bornean orangutans are active on terrestrial that causes the digital extensor muscles to have more developed as an adaptation to terrestrial activity. It can be concluded the morphology of the lower hindlimb and foot muscles is in accordance to its function and behavior adaptation in arboreal and terrestrial.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
