It infects the red blood cells of most mammals especially dogs, causing canine babesiosis. In the present study, the prevalence of Babesia spp. and associated risk factors among dogs in Obio/Akpor Local Governemnt Area, Rivers State were investigated using blood film. Blood samples from 150 dogs were randomly collected and examined for the presence of the parasite with March and November, 2022. Blood films were prepared, fixed in methanol, stained in Giemsa and examined under the microscope for the presence of the parasite. Data on age, breed, sex and other related risk factors were obtained using self-structured questionnaire. Out of the 150 dogs examined, 27(18%) were infected and out of the 27 infected dogs, 3(11.1%), 10(37.0%), 2(7.4%), 6(22.2%), 2(7.4%) and 4(14.8%) were from Rumuolumeni, Ogbogoro, Rumuopirikon, Choba, Rumuola and Ozuaba communities respectively. There was a significance difference (p<0.05) in the number of infected dogs across the communities when compared to the number of dogs that were not infected . More males 12(19.4%) were infected than females 6(14.3%). Dogs within the age range of 7-36months had the highest infection 16(59.3%) while no infection was recorded among dogs within the age group of 3-6months. Local breed had the highest infection 18(36%) than crossed breed6(12%) and exotic breed 3(6%). There was a significance difference (p<0.05) in the prevalence of Babesia spp. in relation to sex, agePp and breed of dogs. Other risk factors identified were management practice, vaccination, use of dogs and intensity of tick infestation which were all statistically significance (p<0.05) The study confirmed that canine babesiosis is a serious health concern among dogs in the study area and attention should be given to the risk factors during intervention.","PeriodicalId":15040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Veterinary Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48136532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Differential diagnosis of ulcerative lymphangitis include epizootic lymphangitis, a fungal infection, sporotrichosis caused by Sporothrix schenckii , pyoderma, and glanders. The aim of this study is to describe the successful management protocol of ulcerative lymphangitis in a stallion in Ibadan, Nigeria. A 12 year old Arewa stallion was presented in December 2019 with cutaneous lesions, ulcerated wounds, anorexia, and weight loss. The lesions were present around the limbs, chest, facial and abdominal regions. Based on case history, the client previously had a mare presenting similar conditions, and decided to manage the mare according to his knowledge. Due to the unresponsiveness of the mare to the protocol incorporated by the client, resulted in the death of the mare. Furthermore, the client reported that three months earlier, the stallion had previously been managed for cutaneous myiasis with forceful expulsion of worms from the skin and the administration of ivermectin. Based on clinical and laboratory examinations, the case was diagnosed as ulcerative lymphangitis. Therapeutic management protocol includes the use of levofloxacin, an antibiotic of the fluoroquinolone drug class, diclofenac, tetanus antitoxin, and supportive therapy. The management protocol proved successful, with the stallion recovering 3 weeks posttreatment. ـــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــ","PeriodicalId":15040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Veterinary Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48692904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many factors interact to cause ascites, including management practices, environmental conditions, and genetic makeup. In the modern broiler industry, ascites syndrome (AS), also called pulmonary hypertension syndrome (PHS), is regarded as the main reason for morbidity and mortality. Current meat chicken lines have a faster metabolic process, which requires a greater amount of oxygen, particularly when they are fed high nutrient density diets or when they are kept in cold environments, Due to their underdeveloped cardiorespiratory systems, broilers cannot get enough oxygen to meet their requirements and suffer from hypoxemia, which in turn leads to pulmonary hypertension syndrome. A wide range of management practices as controlled feeding protocols, and limited lighting periods, besides adding antioxidants to feed, are outlined for reducing ascites incidence in broiler chickens. Also, the use of higher levels of dietary vitamins such as C and E, besides selenium, is believed to help lower the incidence of ascites. The improvement of low-temperature environmental shelter conditions appears to reduce the prevalence of PHS. Molecular genetics employed to diagnose and select against susceptible broilers' grandparents is being employed to eliminate involved genes.","PeriodicalId":15040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Veterinary Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44829466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
