Blood analytes of clinically normal and diseased neonatal and weaned farmed white-tailed deer ( < em > Odocoileus virginianus < /em > ) fawns
The objectives of this study were to establish de novo blood analyte reference intervals for farmed WTD fawns at birth (1-2 days of age; n = 84) and again at weaning (76-125 days of age; n = 28), to compare data at birth and at weaning to understand how these analytes are affected by the intrinsic factors age and sex in clinically normal WTD fawns, and to compare between clinically normal and sick WTD weanlings (respiratory disease n = 12; orbivirus-infected n = 6). Reference intervals were established for WTD fawns at birth and weaning. Female WTD neonates had significantly higher red blood cell counts, hematocrit, and he...

Seroprevalence and risk factors of brucellosis in dromedary camels ( < em > Camelus dromedarius < /em > ) in Sudan from 1980 to 2020: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Vet Q. 2023 Aug 16:1-17. doi: 10.1080/01652176.2023.2248233. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCamel brucellosis is a major public health concern in Sudan; however, there is no overall estimation of the prevalence of camel brucellosis in Sudan. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, this study aimed to perform a meta-analysis of 30 eligible studies published before December 31, 2022, with a total of 70059 dromedary camels, to estimate the pooled prevalence of camel brucellosis and its risk factors in Sudan. The random effect model was used for the final analysis du...

Rabies in Chozna " < em > Potus flavus < /em > ": a warning of a potential threat to public and animal health
We reported an outbreak of wild rabies in Potus flavus (choznas), a carnivorous mammal associated with insectivorous bats in Kosñipata, Cusco, Peru, from February 2021 to October 2022. Eight human exposures were reported, with aggressive attacks resulting in injuries. The outbreak prompted a public health response and raised concerns about zoonotic diseases due to habitat fragmentation and urbanization. The study involved antigenic and genetic characterization of the virus in the affected animals, revealing similarities with variants in non-hematophagous bats. This outbreak marked the first time rabies had been reported i...

Quantification of GS-441524 concentration in feline plasma using high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection
This study developed and validated a simple liquid chromatography equipped with a fluorescence detector to quantify plasma concentrations of GS-441524 applicable for routine therapeutic monitoring of remdesivir or GS-441524 therapy for FIP infected cats. A Waters X-Bridge C18, 5 µm, 150 × 4.6 mm, column was used and mixtures of 20 mM ammonium acetate (pH 4.5) with acetonitrile of 5% and 70% were prepared for gradient mobile phase. With a simple protein precipitation using methanol to clean plasma sample, GS-441524 was monitored at excitation and emission wavelengths of 250 nm and 475 nm, respectively. Using an external s...

Non-controlled, open-label trial to assess clinical and immunological parameters in atopic dogs feeding monoprotein grain free diet < em > versus < /em > a standard grain diet
In conclusion, the results indicate that dietary intervention had not influence on cellular component of the immune system, but a positive effect was observed on IL-31, IL-10 serum levels for diet A. Further studies are needed to enrich dietary components of the food for atopic dogs without food hypersensibility to help improvement the management of the cAD.PMID:37530035 | DOI:10.1080/01652176.2023.2243309 (Source: Veterinary Quarterly)
