Analyzed the levels of Heat shock protein 70 (HSP 70) and cortisol in serum samples collected at weekly intervals and assessed the seasonal pattern and correlation with weather parameters. While minimum temperature (MnT) of the region varied significantly (P<0.01) between seasons (lowest mean 22.09±1.19 ºC), maximum temperature (MxT) was consistently high across seasons (yearly mean 33.64±0.77 ºC). Moderate to high (66 to 85 %) relative humidity (RH) was prevalent year-round, mainly contributed by the extended rainy season. Temperature-humidity index (THI) of the locality exceeded 78, exposing the animals to moderate to severe TS throughout the year. HSP 70 levels varied significantly (P<0.01) between seasons, with a significant hike (6.24±0.51 ng/mL) during summer (THI 83.20±0.53) and lesser elevation during other seasons of moderate THI, indicating its association with TS. Cortisol levels varied significantly (P<0.01) between seasons, however there was no significant correlation with THI and other weather parameters.

Most affected parts of the world include the Mediterranean countries of Europe, North and East Africa, the Middle East, South and Central Asia as well as Central and South America. This paper reviews the prevalence of brucellosis in Tanzania as well as public awareness and knowledge on the disease in the past six decades, from 1962 to 2021.  Literatures were searched using Google Scholar database. The criteria for literature inclusion or exclusion were the type of literature, year of publication and the country where the study was conducted. In livestock, the disease prevalence ranged from 2.16 to 48% in cattle, 0.2 to 13.79% in goats and 0 to 23% in sheep. A prevalence of 0.7% was reported in pigs. In humans, the prevalence ranged from 0 to 48.4%. The prevalence of brucellosis in wildlife was 0% in baboon, 25% in hyena, 30% in impala, 36.8% in lions, 4% in zebra, ranged from 7.9 to 24% in African buffalo and 3.8 to 17% in wildebeest. Generally, the public awareness and knowledge on the disease were low due to the lack of a well- established channel for sharing of research findings which is friendly to all stakeholders. In the past six decades more emphasis was on research which led to generation of data presented in this review. Although education campaigns to raise public awareness and knowledge on the disease transmission, its control, and socio-economic effects were recommended in many reports, no significant work was done during the period under review.  In order to control and prevent brucellosis in the country, embarking on education campaigns to raise public awareness and knowledge on the disease is a recommended way forward, followed by implementation of other objectives outlined in the National Strategy for Prevention and Control of Brucellosis in Humans and Animals. \u0000Keywords: Brucellosis, Education campaigns, Neglected, Widespread, Zoonotic.","PeriodicalId":428351,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Veterinary Medicine","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128241627","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}

This study was designed to elucidate the comparative efficacy of Tribulus terrestris, Andrographis paniculata, and Lagerstroemia speciosa on glucose intolerance, lipid profile, renal and pancreatic injury in alloxan induced type-1 diabetic mice. In this study, four-week-old male Swiss Albino mice were divided into six groups of five each. To assess toxicity, Group-X was given saline water, while Group-Y was given a combination herbal formulation at a high dose (1 g/kg bwt). No adverse effect of combined formula on body weight and blood glucose was observed in normal healthy mice. The other four groups were labeled as Group-A, healthy normal mice; Group-B, Diabetic mice; Group-C, Diabetic mice treated with Andrographis paniculata, Tribulus terristris @ 200 mg/kg and Lagerstroemia speciosa @ 0.5ml/animal; and Group-D, Diabetic mice treated with Amaryl®@ 800 g/kg bwt. The combined formulation improved body weight loss significantly (P<0.001) compared to diabetic control group after 8 weeks of treatment. Combined formulation and Amaryl® decreased non-significantly total cholesterol, plasma triglyceride and plasma creatinine level compared to diabetic control. However, HDL and LDL levels remained unchanged by the treatment. Consistent with these findings, histopathological evaluation revealed that combined formulation partially improved renal glomerular sclerosis and hypertrophy, tubular damage and pancreatic β-cells damage reflected its renal and pancreatic damage curative property. The obtained results suggest that combined use of Andrographis paniculata, Tribulus terrestris and Lagerstroemia speciosa as antidiabetic herbal formulation, synergizing its therapeutic value in treating hyperglycemia and diabetes related complications mainly renal and pancreatic injury. \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":428351,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Veterinary Medicine","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133942852","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}

It is a leguminous tree believed to have a number of benefits among the ethnic groups in South and Southeast Asia as well as Central and South America. With this premise, G. sepium has been a focus of in-vitro antimicrobial studies to describe and measure its extract's potency against commonly infective microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. These studies have returned with promising results capable of competing with antibiotics like ciprofloxacin, gentamycin, and tobramycin and antifungal such as amphotericin-B. To justify the antimicrobial activity of G. sepium, several of these studies performed subsequent phytochemical analysis which identified different complex chemicals like tannins, flavonoids, and alkaloids which are historically linked with antimicrobial activity. The results of the different tests performed establish G. sepium as a good alternative for antimicrobials.","PeriodicalId":428351,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Veterinary Medicine","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126008219","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}

This challenge has necessitated poultry nutritionists to offer specific nutritional strategies for improved productivity. Feed additives are recommended as one of such strategic options, and plant materials, otherwise known as phytogenics, are being extensively investigated. Therefore, the study's objective was to assess the production performance and egg quality of commercial laying hens fed black pepper and red pepper additives. A total of 210 commercial laying hens at 24 weeks of age were allotted into seven dietary treatments in a completely randomized design. Each treatment had thirty (30) birds each, replicated three times to give ten (10) birds per replicate in a study that lasted 12 weeks. The formulated diets included: a control diet with no additives; Treatments 2 and 3 had 1% and 1.5% black pepper powder; Treatments 4 and 5 had 1% and 1.5% red pepper powder; Treatment 6 had a mixture of 0.5% each of black pepper and red pepper, while treatment 7 had a mixture of 0.75% each of black pepper and red pepper. All data collected were subjected to a one-way analysis of variance using the general linear model procedure of SAS (2012). From the results obtained, the hen day production (%) was significantly highest in hens fed the diet with 1% red pepper (83.40%) and the least from hens in the control (65.56%). The control treatment also recorded the least performances in egg mass (48.76g/bird/day) and feed conversion ratios (2.58 and 2.30). Shell thickness was least (0.43mm) in hens fed the diet with 1.5% red pepper, while the thickest shell measurement of 0.50mm was recorded in Treatment 6. The highest Haugh unit of 103.77 was obtained from Treatment 4, while the least value of 96.66 was obtained from the control. Yolk colour was significantly improved in the treated groups as against what was obtained from the control group. From the results, it can be concluded that black pepper and red pepper, having improved production performance and some egg quality characteristics in the treated groups compared to the control hold great potential as dietary additives.","PeriodicalId":428351,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Veterinary Medicine","volume":"434 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126100064","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}
