JOURNAL FREE ACCESSA prediction of the development of fatty liver during the peri-parturient period was performed by LCAT during the dry period in Holstein dairy cows. LCAT, FFA, BHBA, TCho, FCho, ChoE, Glu, AST and GGT in blood samples were measured and BCS was evaluated eight times during the final two weeks before calving and for three months after calving using 16 high-BCS dry cows in Trial-1. These 16 cows were divided into two groups based on the incidence of severe fatty liver. A comparison between the two groups revealed that, in the fatty liver group LCAT, TCho, FCho and ChoE were significantly lower than in the non-fatty liver group during the dry period (P<0.01). The parameters of prediction were obtained from LCAT and TCho levels during the final seven to 14 days before calving, were 830IU and 110mg/dl, respectively. In Trial-2, a prediction of the development of fatty liver was performed by the parameters obtained from Trial-1, using 32 dry cows. As a result, the odds ratios of LCAT and TCho in 32 cows from which blood samples were taken during the final seven to 25 days before calving were 7.4 and 2.3, respectively. Consequently, a prediction of the development of fatty liver can be performed using LCAT activity during the final one to three weeks before calving with higher probability.View full abstractDownload PDF (1682K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSA Japanese black calf with growth retardation and hip dysplasia showed haemostatic deficiency at blood sampling. Haemostatic time and prothrombin time were normal, but activated partial thromboplastin time was prolonged. A coagulation factor analysis indicated low factor XI activity, and the genetic analysis clarified the abnormality of the factor XI gene.View full abstractDownload PDF (1201K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSA two-year-old castrated domestic shorthair cat positive for FeLV had attained a remission from mediastinal lymphoma diagnosed six months ago, and was referred for periodical examination. Nonregenerative anemia (PCV 20%) and thrombocytopenia (33×103/μl) were observed, and approximately 50% of the peripheral nucleated cells were erythroblasts (6, 188/μl). Further, a bone marrow examination revealed that 80% of all nucleated cells were erythroid cells with a blast cell count below 30% of all nucleated cells. According to FAB classification, the cat was diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS-RAEB in T). Although intensive chemotherapy was performed, the anemia did not improved and the erythroblast count in peripheral blood did not decrease, and the cat died 1.5 months after treatment. At necropsy, erythroblastic invasion and proliferation were found in the bone marrow, liver, lung and spleen, and the cat was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia.View full abstractDownload PDF (1450K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAbstract. A five-year-old female Labrador Retriever was referred for the diagnosis of acute onset of tetraplegia with a three-week history. A neurological examination demonstrated lower motor neuron signs on the left forelimb and upper neuron signs on the both hindlimbs, suggesting a lesion at the spinal cord segments C6-T2. Radiographs of the cervical area did not show any pathological changes. MR images demonstrated a lesion at the C6, as a high intensity area on T2-weighted images, with minimal contrast-enhancement both on T1- and T2-weighted images. As a fibrocartilaginous embolism was the most likely diagnosis for the tetraplegia of the dog, a poor prognosis was given. Euthanasia and necropsy were performed and a definitive diagnosis of fibrocartilaginous embolism was made through a histopathological examination, since an ischemic infarction with a fibrocartilaginous tissue in the vessels around the lesion was observed.View full abstractDownload PDF (3230K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSGiardia intestinalis antigen in fecal samples was examined in 513 household adult dogs aged two to 17 years old in the Tohoku region, using a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit. G. intestinalis antigen was detected in 13%(65/513) of the fecal specimens. The positive rate was not affected by such factors as fecal condition, age, sex, origin, method or circumstances of keeping or locality of dogs. The present results suggest that G. intestinalis infection is widespread among household adult dogs.View full abstractDownload PDF (575K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSPrepubertal gonadectomy in which the vessels were treated using an electric scalpel was performed in 131 kittens (male 66, female 65) aged from one to four months. Testicular, uterine, and ovarian vessels were treated by electric coagulation during surgery. No side effect was seen in intra- and post-operations. A questionnaire was submitted to owners of 32 cats aged more than six months after the surgery. All owners were satisfied with the surgery. It was found that the number of captured stray cats declined in comparison with data from the regional public health center. In conclusion, prepubertal gonadectomy was found to be safe with matu-rity in cats and may help decrease the number of stray cats.View full abstractDownload PDF (1301K) -
