Clinical findings and prognostic factors for mortality in hospitalized dogs with leishmaniosis: aretrospective study
Comp Immunol Microbiol Infect Dis. 2023 Aug 23;101:102041. doi: 10.1016/j.cimid.2023.102041. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis retrospective study evaluated factors responsible for mortality of dogs hospitalized for Canine Leishmaniosis. Medical records of 31 dogs with leishmaniosis from a Portuguese Veterinary Teaching Hospital were examined between August 2018 and January 2022. Females (n = 18) and pure breed dogs (n = 27) were overrepresented, with higher frequency of Labrador Retriever (n = 4). Median age was 7 years (interquartile range=7). Most had historical findings of lethargy (n = 26) and the commonest clinicopa...

Pathogenicity of H5N8 avian influenza virus in chickens and in duck breeds and the role of MX1 and IFN- α in infection outcome and transmission to contact birds
In conclusion, there was a diversity in sensitivity and immunogenicity for HPAIV H5N8 among duck breeds, resulting in diverse infection outcomes and transmissibility to contacts. This study provides duck/chicken interface models for HPAIV transmission to poultry.PMID:37591150 | DOI:10.1016/j.cimid.2023.102039 (Source: Comparative immunology, microbiology and infectious diseases.)

Identification of novel anelloviruses in the blood of giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca)
Comp Immunol Microbiol Infect Dis. 2023 Aug 3;100:102038. doi: 10.1016/j.cimid.2023.102038. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn recent years, the continuous development of metagenomics has revealed that in addition to the digestive tract, some viruses are also common in mammalian blood. To explore and monitor potential novel viruses, in April 2015, a blood sample was collected from a healthy captive giant panda at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding in Sichuan Province, China. The genomes of 25 different anelloviruses containing the complete ORF1 region have been identified. The BLASTp results showed that the am...
