In summer 2023, during an outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in cats Poland, a 16-year-old dog was presented to the veterinary clinic with persistent, debilitating, dry cough, submandibular lymphadenomegaly, mild serous nasal discharge, and left apical heart murmur. A preliminary diagnosis kennel cough made treatment amoxicillin/clavulanic acid dexamethasone initiated. Due lack improvement within 2 days, blood check-up, thoracic radiography ultrasonography, echocardiography...
The aim of the study was to establish an optimized protocol iron dextran administration pig neonates, which better meets demand for erythropoiesis. Here, we monitored development red blood cell indices, plasma parameters during a 28-day period after birth (till weaning), following intramuscular different concentrations suckling piglets. To assess status developed novel mass spectrometry assay quantify levels iron-regulatory peptide hormone hepcidin-25. This is predominantly secreted by liver...
Abstract Introduction Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an amphipathic solvent for molecules in vitro tests detection of anthelmintic resistance gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). It has been shown to have a concentration-dependent detrimental effect on Caenorhabditis elegans , free-living nematode. If GIN are likewise affected, using DMSO egg-hatch test and larval development (LDT) may confound their results. Therefore, the concentration was determined at which it exerted inhibitory third stage....
Currently, there are three classes of anthelmintics most commonly used in small ruminants: the benzimidazoles (BZs), macrocyclic lactones (MLs) and cholinergic agonists (especially levamisole; LEV). The widespread use those products has led to emergence drug-resistant parasite strains which represents a serious threat livestock industry. In present study, we describe for first time case resistance goats Romania. study was carried out 2021 dairy goat herd from Transylvania region. Two types...
The study involved five ferrets from one household in Poland, comprising three sick 9-week-old juveniles, their healthy mother, and another clinically normal adult, admitted to the veterinary clinic June 2023. juvenile displayed significant lethargy a pronounced unwillingness move with accompanying pulmonary distress. Prompted by concurrent outbreaks of A/H5N1 influenza virus infections Polish cats, point-of-care tests were conducted that revealed type A antigens throat swabs all ferrets....
Abstract Background Helminthic infections, in particular those caused by gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN), are found worldwide and among the most economically important diseases of goats. Anthelmintic resistance (AR) GIN goats is currently present worldwide, single- or multidrug resistant species widespread. The aim this study was to determine prevalence AR benzimidazoles (BZ), macrocyclic lactones (ML) imidazothiazoles represented levamisole (LEV) Polish goat herds using an vitro larval...
Little is known about the prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii in wild life, particularly game animals Poland. Meat juice collected during 2009/2010 and 2010/2011 hunting seasons from 552 red deer (Cervus elaphus), 367 boars (Sus scrofa) 92 roe (Capreolus capreolus) was tested for T. antibodies using multi-species ID Screen Toxoplasmosis Indirect kit (IDvet, Montpellier, France). Antibodies to were detected 24.1% (95% CI: 20.7%, 27.8%), 37.6% boar 32.8%, 42.7%) 30.4% 22.0%, 40.5%). To authors'...
Abstract Diagnostic performance of ID Screen ® MVV-CAEV Indirect Screening ELISA in identifying goats infected with small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) was evaluated. In total 299 serum samples from the collection Laboratory Veterinary Epidemiology and Economics - 109 truly positive 190 negative were used. To be enrolled study a sample had to come at least 2 year-old goat which reacted identically two serological surveys preceding kept herd stable status confirmed twice during 5 years....
Abstract Background Prophylactic anthelmintic treatment with one of three basic classes anthelmintics (benzimidazoles, macrocyclic lactones and imidazothiazoles) is still the mainstay control gastrointestinal nematode infections in small ruminants worldwide. As a consequence, resistance serious threat to ruminant health production. While class has already been reported most countries, newly-emerging problem two or even all referred as multidrug resistance. This study aimed evidence presence...
A European Shorthair male cat, neutered, approximately 6 years of age, was presented to the veterinary clinic due apathy and anorexia. The cat lived mostly outdoors fed raw chicken meat. After 3 days diagnostic procedures symptomatic treatment, respiratory distress neurological signs developed progressed into epileptic seizures, followed by cardiac arrest within next days. Post-mortem examination revealed necrotic lesions in liver, lungs, intestines. Notably, brain displayed perivascular...
Background: Due to their versatility, goats are becoming popular as livestock on commercial farms. To obtain a high productivity, the maintenance of homeostasis in these organisms is needed. Some supplements that could help improve health state have been tested recently. The study examines effects turmeric–rosemary extract mixture antioxidant status blood young castrated bucks. Results: Supplementation lowered lipoperoxidation and increased TAC, probably due improved neutralization reactive...
Limited data are available on the causes of hydrops fetalis in dogs. Congenital heart defects may be an important contributing factor. Standard autopsy often fails to provide a comprehensive and accurate diagnosis very small hearts. This study was carried out five French bulldog puppies all presenting with advanced four diagnosed pulmonary hypoplasia at autopsy. The body weight dogs ranged from 142 687 g lungs weighed 4.5 23.6 g. hearts vessels were filled barium contrast, micro-CT scans...
