The present research studied the effects of EGCG on the laying performance, egg quality, immune status, antioxidant capacity, and hepatic metabolome of <i>Linwu</i> laying ducks reared under high temperature. A total of 180 42-w-old healthy <i>Linwu</i> laying ducks were allocated into control or EGCG-treated groups. Each treatment had 6 replicates with 15 ducks in each replicate. Diets for the two groups were basal diets supplemented with 0 or 300 mg/kg EGCG, respectively. All ducks were raised in the high temperature condition (35 ± 2 °C for 6 h from 10:00 to 16:00, and 28 ± 2 °C for the other 18 h from 16:00 to 10:00 the next day) for 21 days. Results showed that EGCG increased the egg production rate (<i>p</i> = 0.014) and enhanced the immunocompetence by improving serum levels of immunoglobulin A (<i>p</i> = 0.008) and immunoglobulin G (<i>p</i> = 0.006). EGCG also fortified the antioxidant capacity by activating superoxide dismutase (<i>p</i> = 0.012), catalase (<i>p</i> = 0.009), and glutathione peroxidase (<i>p</i> = 0.021), and increasing the level of heat-shock protein 70 (<i>p</i> = 0.003) in laying ducks' liver. At the same time, hepatic metabolomics result suggested that EGCG increased the concentration of several key metabolites, such as spermidine (<i>p</i> = 0.031), tetramethylenediamine (<i>p</i> = 0.009), hyoscyamine (<i>p</i> = 0.026), β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (<i>p</i> = 0.038), and pantothenic acid (<i>p</i> = 0.010), which were involved in the metabolic pathways of glutathione metabolism, arginine and proline metabolism, β-alanine metabolism, and tropane, piperidine, and pyridine alkaloid biosynthesis. In conclusion, 300 mg/kg dietary EGCG showed protection effects on the laying ducks reared in high temperature by improving the immune and antioxidant capacities, which contributed to the increase of laying performance of ducks.

Pathomorphological changes were found in 95.12% of hares. In hares up to 1 year of age, the changes were predominant in the lungs, and in older hares, in the kidneys. Degenerative changes in kidneys and liver and inflammatory changes in kidneys and lungs were considered important most in discussing the influence of chemical pollution. The proximity of TPP influenced the type of changes in the liver. A significant joint effect of age and elevation on the type of changes in the lungs of adult hares and on the heart of young hares was found.

Human cases have been reported mainly from the United States, Nordic countries like Sweden and Finland, and some European and Asian countries. Naturally, the disease occurs in several vertebrates, particularly lagomorphs. Type A (subspecies <i>tularensis</i>) is more virulent and causes disease mainly in North America; type B (subspecies <i>holarctica</i>) is widespread, while subspecies <i>mediasiatica</i> is present in central Asia. <i>F. tularensis</i> is a possible bioweapon due to its lethality, low infectious dosage, and aerosol transmission. Small mammals like rabbits, hares, and muskrats are primary sources of human infections, but true reservoir of <i>F. tularensis</i> is unknown. Vector-borne tularemia primarily involves ticks and mosquitoes. The bacterial subspecies involved and mode of transmission determine the clinical picture. Early signs are flu-like illnesses that may evolve into different clinical forms of tularemia that may or may not include lymphadenopathy. Ulcero-glandular and glandular forms are acquired by arthropod bite or handling of infected animals, oculo-glandular form as a result of conjunctival infection, and oro-pharyngeal form by intake of contaminated food or water. Pulmonary form appears after inhalation of bacteria. Typhoidal form may occur after infection <i>via</i> different routes. Human-to-human transmission has not been known. Diagnosis can be achieved by serology, bacterial culture, and molecular methods. Treatment for tularemia typically entails use of quinolones, tetracyclines, or aminoglycosides.
