Tungiasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by Tunga penetrans and, less commonly, trimamillata. It affects the skin of humans and animals in rural or low-income communities. The considered endemic Ecuador, with most cases reported Amazon Andean regions. There are few on T. trimamillata which have been canton Santa Isabel, Azuay Province. Unlike penetrans, no canine infection for T.trimamillata before. A patient was presented medical consultation multiple white nodules all four paws....
Abstract As apex predators, pinnipeds are considered to be useful bioindicators of marine and coastal environments. Endemic a small archipelago in the South Pacific, Juan Fernandez fur seal (JFFS) is one less‐studied members pinniped family Otariidae . This study aimed characterize fecal microbiome JFFS for first time, establish baseline future studies host–microbial–environment interactions monitoring programs. During two consecutive reproductive seasons, 57 samples were collected from...
Abstract This report presents the first case of nodular dermatofibrosis with renal cysts (NDRC) in a beagle. In this atypical case, gene mutation associated disease was not present, showed dynamic changes size and number, patient has greatly surpassed NDRC life expectation.
Heavy metals, including mercury (Hg) and cadmium (Cd), occur naturally or anthropogenically are considered toxic to the environment human health. However, studies on heavy metal contamination focus locations close industrialized settlements, while isolated environments with little activity often ignored due perceived low risk. This study reports exposure in Juan Fernandez fur seals (JFFS), a marine mammal endemic an relatively pristine archipelago off coast of Chile. We found exceptionally...
