RESUMO
A two-way experimental design was used to demonstrate the physiological effects of magnetized water and sex on blood indices and histomorphometric parameters of Japanese quail intestine sections. Red blood cell count (RBCs), packed cell volume (PCV), hemoglobin concentration (Hb), thrombocytes, white blood cell count (WBCs), and WBC differentiation were investigated. A total of 450 unsexed Japanese quail were randomized into three groups (45/replicate; 3 replicates; 135/group). As a monitoring group, the first group was given untreated tap water to drink. The two others were consumed magnetized water that were subjected to an electrical magnetic field with a power of 1 Tesla (10,000 Gauss) and 2 Tesla (20,000 Gauss), respectively. The treatments had a significant (p ≤ 0.05) effect on thrombocytes and Hb. Sex showed significant (p ≤ 0.05) differences for RBCs and PCV at 42 days of age. At different ages, significant effects were observed on histomorphometric parameters of the Japanese quail intestinal tract. It may be inferred that the influence of magnetized water, up to 1 Tesla, was positive on the haematological and histomorphometric parameters of the Japanese quail intestinal tract by augmenting the haematological measurements, which were within a normal range and increasing the surface area of the villus.

Clinical and immunocytochemical analysis of twenty eight cases of giant cell tumour of bone was performed in this study. The results revealed that nine of the cases were benign, while the other nineteen were malignant. The female to male ratio was 2.5:1. The average age incidence was 28.18 years. The most common site of occurrence was the femur. anti endothelial antibody revealed negative immunocytochemical reaction of the stromal cells and giant cells for both benign and malignant cases; While using anti-HLA-DR antibody demonstrated positive immune reaction of some of the strumal and giant cells of all the cases examined.
