“…The P waves were dominantly positive in all leads except for lead aVR and only in male pheasants it was biphasic in lead aVL. In this respect, there is compatibility between our results and those findings reported by many authors [16,17,[28][29][30] . On the other hand, Hassanpour et al found that the P waves were mainly positive in all leads in green peafowl [31] and in helmeted guinea fowl [32] .…”

“…Likewise, in lead aVR and aVL the most frequent morphologies were qR. Our findings were almost similar to results obtained in many studies [15][16][17]28,[30][31][32] .…”

“…These results are confirmed by other ECG studies in birds [16,17,28,[31][32][33] . The mean values of duration and amplitude of QRS complexes were similar to those reported previously in buzzards [30] but higher than those reported in pigeons [13] .…”

“…Machida and Aohagi [33] reported that the P waves are generally biphasic in lead I and III, and positive in lead II. The amplitude of P wave in our study was higher than the value described by Uzun et al [28] and Hassanpour et al [31] ; lower than the value notified by Casares et al [15] and Lopez-Murcia et al [13] and, similar to the value reported by Espino et al [30] and Talavera et al [17] . The mean P wave durations in lead II were 0.03 and 0.03 sec in male and female pheasants, respectively, which was fairly similar to the values reported by many authors [13,15,17,28,30] .…”

“…Uzun et al [28] reported a similar finding where they detected five and eleven silent P waves in rock and chukar partridges, respectively. The P waves were dominantly positive in all leads except for lead aVR and only in male pheasants it was biphasic in lead aVL.…”

The aim of this study was to establish normal electrocardiographic values and patterns in pheasants (Phasianus colchicus). The electrocardiograms were recorded in 24 conscious pheasants from both genders. All electrocardiograms were standardized at 1 mV=20 mm , with a paper speed of 50 mm/sec. Morphological patterns of P, QRS and T deflections were evaluated in the six limb leads (I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF). The amplitude and duration of waves and intervals were determined by using lead II. A regular sinus rhythm was observed in all birds. There was no significant difference between male and female pheasants except for amplitudes of P and T waves and duration of T wave. In all leads P waves were mainly positive in both sexes except for lead aVR. The dominant waveforms of the QRS complexes were rS in lead II, III and aVF, and qR in lead aVR and aVL in both sexes. Generally, T waves were positive in lead I, II, III and aVF, and negative in aVL, aVF. The majority of birds showed a slightly elevated ST segment in lead II. Heart rates were 193.5±45.8 and 235.7±59.9 beats per minute and mean electrical axes were -91±10° and -92±18° in male and female birds, respectively. This study provides electrocardiographic data for pheasants, which can be used for clinical purposes.

Bu amaçla her iki cinsiyetten 24 adet uyanık sülünün elektrokardiyogramları 50 mm/sn hızda ve 20 mV/mm amplitüdte kaydedildi. Bipolar ve unipolar ekstremite derivasyonlarında (I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF) P, QRS ve T dalga morfolojileri değerlendirildi. Dalgaların süre, yükseklik ve aralıklarının hesaplanmasında derivasyon II kullanıldı. Çalışmada tüm kuşlarda düzenli sinüs ritmi izlendi. Erkek ve dişi sülünler arasında P ve T dalgalarının amplitüdü ve T dalgalarının süresi dışında önemli fark saptanmadı. P dalgası aVR dışında tüm derivasyonlarda her iki cinsiyette de pozitifti. Her iki cinsiyette de QRS kompleksi II, III ve aVF derivasyonlarında rS formunda, aVR ve aVL derivasyonlarında qR formunda gözlendi. T dalgası I, II, III ve aVF derivasyonlarında pozitif iken aVL ve aVF derivasyonlarında negatif olarak belirlendi. Derivasyon II'de ST segmentinde hafif bir yükselme saptandı. Kalp atım sayısı erkeklerde 193.5±45.8 atım/dk ve dişilerde 235.7±59.9 atım/dk olarak hesaplanırken, ortalama elektriksel eksen erkeklerde -91±10° ve dişilerde -92±18° olarak hesaplandı. Bu çalışma ile klinik amaçlar için kullanılabilecek sülünlere ait elektrokardiyografik veriler elde edilmiştir.

It has been hypothesized that Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection may contribute to reduced stature, risk of hypertension or obesity. The aim was to evaluate body indices in Hp positive and negative persons. A total of 2436 subjects (4-100 years old) were tested for Hp status by 13 C-urea breath test. Data on height and weight were collected for 84%, and blood pressure for 80% of the study subjects. The prevalence of Hp infection was 41.6%. The odds ratio for a 10-year increase in age was 1.21 (95% CI 1.17-1.25, p-value <0.001). Statistically significant negative association of Hp positivity with body height was most pronounced in the younger age groups, while a positive association of Hp positivity with body mass index was only seen in those aged 15+ years. There was a negative effect of Hp positivity on systolic and diastolic blood pressure in subjects below 25 and a relatively strong positive effect on blood pressure in subjects over 65 years. Residual confounding by social characteristics as a possible explanation for the associations of Hp positivity with height and blood pressure cannot be excluded. Unmeasured factors related to social and family environment may cause the apparent association between Hp positivity and children's growth and blood pressure.
