Abstract

Objective: The objective of this study was to provide orientation values for fructosamine in adult llamas and to characterize relationships with other laboratory and clinical parameters.

Animals: Data from 22 healthy adult llamas of both sexes.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted with the findings of a veterinary herd visit from August 2022. Fructosamine measured from plasma samples was characterized, and its relationships with clinical and laboratory diagnostic data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and correlation analysis.

Results: Fructosamine was 311 ± 34 µmol/L (mean ± SD), with a range of 254.8 to 409.2 µmol/L. Males showed significantly higher plasma fructosamine levels than females (P < .05). Plasma fructosamine revealed significant positive correlations with glucose, total protein, and albumin and also with PCV, hemoglobin, calcium, sodium, and selenium. Female llamas revealed further positive correlations with body condition scoring.

Clinical relevance: The results of this study can be used as orientation values for fructosamine in llamas. Fructosamine is used to distinguish acute hyperglycemia caused by stress from chronic hyperglycemia in other species, which might be caused by disorders of the glucose metabolism.

骆驼（Lama glama）体内的果糖胺与性别、身体状况评分以及血液和血清参数有关。

研究目的本研究的目的是提供成年美洲驼果糖胺的定位值，并确定其与其他实验室和临床参数的关系：数据来自 22 只健康的成年雌雄骆驼：方法：利用2022年8月兽医对骆驼群的访问结果进行了一项回顾性研究。对血浆样本中测得的果糖胺进行了特征描述，并使用描述性统计和相关分析方法分析了果糖胺与临床和实验室诊断数据之间的关系：果糖胺为 311 ± 34 µmol/L（平均值 ± SD），范围为 254.8 至 409.2 µmol/L。男性血浆果糖胺水平明显高于女性（P < .05）。血浆果糖胺与葡萄糖、总蛋白和白蛋白呈显著正相关，与 PCV、血红蛋白、钙、钠和硒也呈显著正相关。雌性骆驼的体况评分进一步显示出正相关性：本研究的结果可作为骆驼果糖胺的定向值。果糖胺可用于区分应激引起的急性高血糖和其他物种的慢性高血糖，后者可能是由葡萄糖代谢紊乱引起的。

期刊介绍： The American Journal of Veterinary Research supports the collaborative exchange of information between researchers and clinicians by publishing novel research findings that bridge the gulf between basic research and clinical practice or that help to translate laboratory research and preclinical studies to the development of clinical trials and clinical practice. The journal welcomes submission of high-quality original studies and review articles in a wide range of scientific fields, including anatomy, anesthesiology, animal welfare, behavior, epidemiology, genetics, heredity, infectious disease, molecular biology, oncology, pharmacology, pathogenic mechanisms, physiology, surgery, theriogenology, toxicology, and vaccinology. Species of interest include production animals, companion animals, equids, exotic animals, birds, reptiles, and wild and marine animals. Reports of laboratory animal studies and studies involving the use of animals as experimental models of human diseases are considered only when the study results are of demonstrable benefit to the species used in the research or to another species of veterinary interest. Other fields of interest or animals species are not necessarily excluded from consideration, but such reports must focus on novel research findings. Submitted papers must make an original and substantial contribution to the veterinary medicine knowledge base; preliminary studies are not appropriate.
