摘要

背景:穿山甲是一种有鳞片、以蚂蚁为食的胎盘哺乳动物,由于过度开发和偷猎,穿山甲濒临灭绝。由于缺乏关于它们生理方面的信息,自然资源保护者的积极保护是适度成功的。目的:造影术,一种用于调查胃肠道疾病的诊断技术,可能有助于保护工作,提高这些动物的存活率。对象与方法:对8只获救的不同年龄、性别、体重的白腹穿山甲进行评价。四只活的;平均体重1.52±0.3 kg,用Digimizer照相测量。另外四人进行了机会性尸检,并对胃肠道进行了大体测量。氯胺酮镇静导致卷曲,易于处理,并口服钡。获得了一系列的背腹侧位片、生理参数、胃肠尺寸和对比图像。结果:口腔呈椭圆形,无牙;又长又细的舌头在食道旁边,在胃里的对比图显示在胃近端第8胸椎肋骨处舌头的长度。x线平片显示第十胸椎胃内结石。食管长、胃长、胃宽分别为201.38±1.70、95.42±1.9、53.02±16.70 mm,胃长、胃径、肠长分别为7.1±0.12、13.3±0.4、220.21±4.03 cm。平均造影传递时间胃为1.34±0.65 h,小肠为0.48±0.48 h,大肠为10.00±5.76 h。与狗的平均传递时间相比,它更长,但与大鼠的平均传递时间相比,它更短。结论:穿山甲消化道的平均转运时间与狗的平均(3±1.5小时)一致。对穿山甲喂养和肠道健康的影响有助于了解重症监护和促进保护工作。

Contrast radiographic anatomy of the gastrointestinal tract of white-bellied pangolin
Context: Pangolins are scaly ant-eating placental mammals threatened with extinction due to over-exploitation and poaching. Aggressive protection by conservationists is moderately successful due to scanty information regarding their physiology. Aims: Contrast radiography, a diagnostic technique for investigating gastrointestinal diseases may assist conservation efforts to improve the survival of these animals. Subjects and Methods: Eight rescued white-bellied pangolins of different ages, sexes, and weights were evaluated. Four live ones; with a mean weight of 1.52 ± 0.3 kg were radiographed and measurements taken by Digimizer. Four others had an opportunistic necropsy done and gross measurements of the gastrointestinal tract. Sedation with Ketamine caused uncurling, facilitated handling, and barium was administered orally. Serial dorso-ventral and lateral radiographs, physiological parameters, gastrointestinal dimensions, and contrast images were acquired. Results: The oral cavity was oval-shaped with no teeth; the long thin tongue runs beside the esophagus and contrast within the stomach 0 min postadmin lends credence to the length of the tongue just proximal to the stomach at the 8th thoracic rib. The plain radiograph revealed stones within the stomach at the 10th thoracic rib. The esophageal length, stomach length, and width radiographically, were 201.38 ± 1.70, 95.42 ± 1.9, and 53.02 ± 16.70 mm while the gross gastric length, diameter, and intestinal length were 7.1 ± 0.12, 13.3 ± 0.4, and 220.21 ± 4.03 cm, respectively. The mean contrast transit time was 1.34 ± 0.65 h-stomach, 0.48 ± 0.48 h-small intestines, and 10.00 ± 5.76 h-large intestines. Compared to mean transit times in dogs, it is longer but shorter when the transit times are compared to mean transit times in rats. Conclusion: Average transit time of the digestive tract is consistent with the reported average in dogs (3 ± 1.5 h). Implications for feeding and gut health in pangolins can assist in understanding critical care and boost conservation efforts.
