The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is populated by a variety of microbes, which were recently demonstrated to play major role in both human and animal health [...].
<h3>Importance</h3> The incidence and geographic range of Lyme disease continues to increase in the United States because expansion of<i>Ixodes scapularis</i>, species tick that is main vector. Currently, no dynamic model for spread exists integrates information both acarological human case surveillance data. <h3>Objective</h3> To characterize spatiotemporal humans among counties US endemic regions. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This cross-sectional study modeled county-level...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect administration Saccharomyces boulardii on nutritional, immunological, inflammatory, and stress status composition gut microbiota mycobiota in healthy adult dogs. A total 25 American Staffordshire Terrier dogs were selected randomly assigned two groups: control (CTR, n = 12) treated (TRT, 13) groups. No significant differences found between groups regarding body weight, condition score, fecal score. microbiota/mycobiota, short chain fatty...
Overweight and obese dogs can develop metabolic dysfunction, characterized by an inflammatory response involvement of liver functions. If a modulation the gut microbiome its interaction with gut–liver axis is implicated in development exploration becomes necessary. Over past decade, diverse therapeutic approaches have emerged to target pathogenic factors involved dysfunction. This study investigated impact supplement hepatoprotective activity, containing extracts Silybum marianum,...
During the hunting season 2007-2008, 494 Dermacentor marginatus (Sulzer) ticks were collected from 109 hunter-killed wild boars, Sus scrofa, in Lucca's province, Tuscany, Italy. Rickettsia slovaca, causative agent of tick-borne lymphadenopathy (TIBOLA), was detected 32.1% tested (n=112) by using polymerase chain reaction primers targeting gltA, ompA, and ompB rickettsial genes. Moreover, raoultii found for first time Italy, with 1.8% infection prevalence. This study confirms risk posed to...
Oxidative stress causes several pathological conditions in humans and animals, including gastrointestinal disorders. The aim of this study was to analyze the antioxidant capacity three natural powdered raw materials containing quercetin, bromelain, Lentinula edodes develop a new feed supplement for dogs using combination them. total phenolic content (TPC), activity, DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl), ABTS (2,2′-Azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt) extracts,...
Recent studies in veterinary science highlight the close relationship between pet health and gastrointestinal [...].
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in dogs is often accompanied by dysbiosis and abnormal gut microbiota composition, leading to gastrointestinal issues. Probiotics, including Lactobacillus acidophilus, Enterococcus faecium, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, have shown promise maintaining a healthy both CKD animals. Aim: This pilot double-blinded, randomized controlled study aimed assess the effects of feed supplement containing these probiotics on clinical parameters fecal consistency with...
Effective acid suppression is crucial for treating gastritis in pets. This vitro study aimed to evaluate and compare the protective effects of two products on gastric cells under conditions high acidity: 1) a supplement (Gastrik Pet®, Candioli srl) containing selected natural ingredients including Promugel®(a complex mucilage protecting mucosa from Guar meal, Psyllium (Plantago Ovata L.), Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) antacid salts (calcium carbonate magnesium hydroxide) 2) sucralfate,...

Oxidative stress is often involved in liver disease progression. Liver the primary site for synthesis of glutathione (GSH), major intracellular antioxidant. GSH erythrocyte concentration can decrease case damage. So, use food supplements with antioxidant capacity has been reported veterinary literature. In this case-control study, we tested a new supplement containing S-acetyl-glutathione (SAG), silybin, and other ingredients dogs affected by disease. After two weeks administration, were...
Oxidative stress is common in several human and veterinary conditions it associated to alteration of the glutathione peroxidase (GPx) level. GPx an enzyme present erythrocytes, kidney, liver has a role protecting against oxidative damage. In this randomised double-blinded control trial on healthy dogs, we findings indicating that administration for total 35 days supplement containing S-acetyl-glutathione (SAG) alongside other antioxidant natural ingredients, leads increase Furthermore,...
This study aimed to determine the impact of a novel formulation supplement composed natural ingredients: bromelain, quercetin, and Lentinula edodes, on gut microbiota healthy adult dogs. Adult female dogs were administered either placebo (CTR, n = 15) or (TRT, n=15) over 28 days. Stool samples collected for 16S rRNA sequencing before administration (T0), at completion (T28), one week after end (T35) characterize changes in microbial communities. QIIME was used both alpha- beta-diversity...
This study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded trial performed to investigate the effects of dietary supplement containing mixture Boswellia serrata Roxb., chlorophyll, green tea extract, glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronic acid, and further in manuscript: non-hydrolised type II collagen dogs with osteoarthritis (OA). A total 40 were enrolled study, they randomly divided control (CTR) treatment (TRT) groups. The TRT group received for 60 days. CTR placebo same number...
