Vernonia amygdalina Delile in Yaoundé, Cameroon, known as a bitter leaf, is a perennial shrub from the Asteraceae family, widely distributed across tropical Africa. It is considered one of the most extensively used medicinal plants within the Vernonia genus. The leaves of this plant suffer significant damage due to insect pests. In Cameroon, a newly identified species from the Hilda genus (Tettigometridae), Hilda cameroonensis Tamesse & Dongmo, was recently documented for the first time on V. am

The article reviews the incidence of toxocariasis in both humans and dogs in different regions of the Russian Federation, taking into account variations by age and gender. The article discusses the routes of transmission of the parasite to potential hosts and assesses the extent of environmental contamination by infected animals shedding Toxocara eggs in urban and rural areas. The clinical manifestations of the disease, along with hematological characteristics in affected individuals, are also a

The castor bean plant, Ricinus communis L., belongs to the Euphorbiaceae family, which includes approximately 300 genera and 7,500 species. This research focuses on investigating the morphological characteristics, chemical properties, and genetic diversity of castor bean plants growing in Saudi Arabia. We used a modified Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromide (CTAB) method to extract genomic DNA from the young leaves. To analyze genetic variation, 4 random HAP primers (HAP1, HAP2, HAP3, and HAP4) were

This paper aims to provide insights into pantohematogen-S, a promising product derived from deer antlers. Antler-based products, which have been used for centuries in modern and traditional medicine, are renowned for their adaptogenic, nootropic, and immunomodulatory effects. They are also known to improve stamina, and mental well-being, and support digestion and metabolism. As contemporary society faces challenges such as environmental pollution and nutrient deficiencies due to poor dietary hab

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in dogs is relatively uncommon and generally linked to a favorable outcome, although a subset of cases exhibits aggressive behavior. In human oncology, HCC typically presents as a highly malignant neoplasm, and various diagnostic and prognostic indicators—such as the expression of PIVKA-II—are used to assess tumor biology. To explore potential prognostic factors for canine HCC, several histological grading systems were applied, and PIVKA-II immunoreactivity was ass

Among rabbits and guinea pigs, dental problems are the most common reason for performing cranial computed tomography (CT). This investigation reviewed CT scans of both species to determine the nature and frequency of lesions arising from dental disorders. Head CT data from 48 rabbits and 52 guinea pigs diagnosed with dental abnormalities were retrospectively examined. Pathologies involving mandibular teeth predominated, seen in 81.2% of rabbits and 98% of guinea pigs. In rabbits, aggressive osse

A lack of serum bicarbonate frequently occurs in people suffering from acute (AKI) or chronic (CKD) kidney disease as a result of disrupted renal synthesis and reabsorption processes. Although alkali therapy is commonly used in both human and animal CKD treatment, information about how often such imbalances appear in canine AKI and CKD remains limited. This study aimed to determine how prevalent and how severe bicarbonate depletion is among dogs diagnosed with AKI, acute-on-chronic kidney diseas

Giardia duodenalis infection frequently occurs in dogs and is predominantly attributed to assemblages C and D. The objective of this work was to evaluate the association between G. duodenalis occurrence, its different assemblages detected in both symptomatic and asymptomatic dogs, and the manifestation of specific clinical signs. All examined dogs (n = 82) underwent a clinical evaluation, and fecal specimens were analyzed for other intestinal parasites and Clostridium spp. In addition, G. duoden

The intestinal microbial community plays a vital role in maintaining host well-being, and growing attention has been drawn to the possible adverse impacts of pharmaceuticals on gut microbiota. The therapeutic application of ivermectin in chinchillas has not been previously examined. This investigation aimed to evaluate how ivermectin injections affect the fecal bacterial composition in chinchillas. A within-subject design was used, comparing microbial changes before and after treatment in 10 cli

The porcupine is a nocturnal rodent covered with sharp quills, widespread throughout Italy. When confronted by danger, it raises its spines, shakes its tail, and charges either backward or sideways toward attackers. Once contact occurs, the quills detach and can penetrate into muscles or body cavities because of the downward-facing serrated cuticle near their base, which acts like a harpoon. In rare cases, these quills have been found inside the heart of dogs, producing serious clinical symptoms

A stray female domestic shorthair cat, approximately three years of age, presenting with biochemical and clinical evidence of liver dysfunction, was confirmed to be infected with domestic cat hepadnavirus (DCH). Integration of molecular testing and antibody profiling suggested a chronic infection phase, as IgM anti-core antibodies—commonly linked to acute Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) cases—were undetectable. In contrast, IgG anti-core antibodies were identified, consistent with chronic HBV infections

Compartmental excision involves removing an entire anatomical region where defined structures act as natural barriers to tumour extension. While widely adopted in human oncology, the technique has been infrequently reported in veterinary practice. This study describes complete muscle resection performed in three dogs diagnosed with distinct intramuscular sarcomas and reports their clinical outcomes. Medical records were reviewed for preoperative findings, surgical details, histopathological resu

Limiting the nontherapeutic use of antibiotics (ABU) in livestock is increasingly viewed as a critical component of global efforts to slow the emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Yet, such use may still play a role in day-to-day disease management on farms. If reductions in nontherapeutic ABU are to be achieved without compromising animal health, farmers may need viable alternative strategies to prevent disease and mitigate risk. It is therefore essential to first determine whether nont

Taenia species and Toxoplasma gondii are zoonotic parasites transmitted through food, posing health risks to humans and pigs. In Burundi, data on their prevalence in pigs is scarce. This study aimed to quantify the occurrence of Taenia spp. using meat inspection, partial carcass dissection, and molecular methods, and to assess T. gondii exposure through serological testing. A cross-sectional survey was carried out in slaughter facilities in Bujumbura city, Kayanza, and Ngozi provinces, sampling

Traditionally, horse gait classification has depended on sensors attached to the horse itself. Mobile phones offer a more practical alternative, but the effectiveness of gait models based on such sensors has been underexplored. In this study, we applied deep learning to classify horse gaits using data from smartphones carried by riders. Seventeen horses and fourteen riders participated, with data collected simultaneously from the rider’s phone and a four-sensor horse-mounted system. Using this a
