Suspected botulism in dairy cows and its implications for the safety of human food     

Cobb SP  Hogg RA  Challoner DJ  Brett MM  Livesey CT  Sharpe RT  Jones TO 《The Veterinary record》2002,150(1):5-8

A large outbreak of suspected botulism occurred on a dairy farm. The affected animals were listless and showed signs ranging from hindlimb unsteadiness to lateral recumbency, although the most common presentation was sternal recumbency with an apparent hindlimb weakness when stimulated to rise. Postmortem examinations revealed no conclusive gross pathology or histopathology. The affected cattle were found to have neutrophilia and hyperglycaemia with no other consistent haematological or biochemical abnormalities. The combination of clinical signs, disease epidemiology and the ruling out of other differential diagnoses strongly supported a diagnosis of unconfirmed botulism; however, the source of toxin was not demonstrated. Botulism is a severe disease in human beings and there are uncertainties about the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of Clostridium botulinum toxins. In such circumstances, a precautionary approach to food safety is essential. Restrictions were placed on the movement of livestock and sale of milk from the farm premises until 14 days after the onset of the last clinical case.  相似文献

A commercial homeopathic remedy and a placebo were administered orally as individual agents to 18 dogs with atopic dermatitis. The pruritus was reduced by less than 50% in only 2/18 dogs; 1 of these dogs was receiving the homeopathic remedy, the other was receiving the placebo. One dog vomited after administration of the homeopathic remedy.  相似文献   

Prevalence of Taenia multiceps in sheep in northern Jordan     

Abo-Shehada MN  Jebreen E  Arab B  Mukbel R  Torgerson PR 《Preventive veterinary medicine》2002,55(3):201-207

From March 1996 to February 1997, slaughtered-sheeps' heads were examined for the metacestode of Taenia multiceps. Out of 451 sheep heads, only 12 (3%) were infested. All cysts but one were in the age group 0.5-2.5 years old, with prevalence of 10% (11 of 108). Eleven of 12 infested heads were found during the spring and autumn seasons. Out of 95 flocks involved in questionnaire survey unrelated to the abattoir survey, all the farmers reported the existence of the clinical signs known for coenurosis and described it in locally known names and diseases. Twenty-five of them had recent cases that were diagnosed by the veterinarian as coenurosis cases. Each flock reported one or two cases at the time of survey. A variety of clinical signs were reported from these cases (n = 42). These included circling (86%), head pressing (52%), blindness (29%) and paresis (40%). Coenurosis is a sheep-health problem and an important cause of sheep culling in Jordan.  相似文献

S. E. Brownlie  M. A. Cobb  J. Chambers  G. Jackson  S. Thomas† 《The Journal of small animal practice》1991,32(4):165-169

Four young dogs with severe pulmonic stenosis were treated by percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty. Pressure gradients between the right ventricle and pulmonary artery were markedly reduced by the procedure resulting in dramatic improvements in growth rate and clinical condition. No postoperative problems were encountered.  相似文献
