[Austrian Low Countries, Europe's animal health pioneer, 1769-1776].

Rev Sci Tech 25(3):951-60 (2006) PMID 17361762

Two previously unpublished manuscripts reveal how innovative the Austrian Low Countries were when they introduced an animal health policy to control rinderpest in 1769. The policy was novel in that it replaced the slaughter of individual sick animals with herd slaughter. Unfortunately, a number of neighbouring countries failed to emulate this sure-fire method of controlling rinderpest, among them France.

    IMPORTANCE Narcolepsy, a disorder associated with HLA-DQB1*06:02 and caused by hypocretin (orexin) deficiency, is diagnosed using the Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT) following nocturnal polysomnography (NPSG). In many patients, a short rapid eye movement sleep latency (REML) durin...

    We Measure these ratios using the dust-depletion pattern observed in UV/optical Afterglow spectra, associated with the interstellar medium (ISM) at the GRB Host-galaxy redshifts. Our sample consists of 20 GRB absorbers and a comparison Sample of 72 QSO-DLAs, overall at redshift 1.2 < z < 4.0 and dow...

    This first preclinical dosimetry study of [18F]UCB-H showed that the tracer meets the standard criteria for radiation exposure in clinical studies. The dose-limiting organ based on US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European guidelines was the urinary bladder wall for FDA and the effective do...
