linguatula serrata is a tongue-shaped parasite that infects carnivores or insectivorous reptile as final host and herbivores as intermediate ones. during necropsy of a 1.5-year-old female stray cat, a few white and fine nodules were observed on the diaphragmatic lobes of the lung. in histopathological examination, the nodules contained a turned spinosum parasite with cuticular spines and in par...

background: the occurrence of giardia duodenalis in cats is of potential significance from both clinical and public health perspectives. the object of this study was antigenic detection of g. duo­denalis in house­hold cats of ahvaz district, south-west of iran. methods: the prevalence of g. duodenalis was determined in fecal samples by two techniques: centrifuga­tion-flotation and a commercial ...

cataract is multi-factorial eye disease identified by the disturbance of the transparent ocular lens. there is significant evidence suggesting oxidative damage as a major cause of initiation and progression of numerous diseases including cataracts. nad(p)h:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (nqo1; omim: 125860) and catalase (cat, omim: 115500) are antioxidant enzymes that prevent cells from oxidative str...

the aim of this article was to describe the clinical management of a case with seizure, possibly due toiron deficiency anaemia (ida) in a kitten. a 38-day-old female european shorthair cat was presented withacute onset of impaired consciousness, seizures and lateralised upper motor neuron tetraparesis. haematology results showed severe microcytic hypochromic anaemia with marked anisocytosis and...

background: during the detorsion of a torsioned ovary, oxidant agents are released and melatonin as an antioxidant can reduce ischemia. we studied the histopathological changes after using melatonin on experimental torsioned ovary in cat. objective: the aim of this experimental study was to investigate the effects of melatonin on histopathological changes in torsion – detorsion injury in cat ov...

In the ongoing and polarized dialogue concerning the role of non-lethal management, including trapneuter-return (TNR), in managing community cats, reference is often made to studies that demonstrate that this approach does not work. This selected bibliography points to studies that, among others not summarized here, comprise a body of work that shows TNR as a valuable tool in managing cat popul...

In this paper, we present some fixed point results for a generalized class of nonexpansive mappings in the framework uniformly convex hyperbolic space and also propose new iterative scheme approximating spaces. Furthermore, establish basic properties strong $\triangle$-convergence theorems these Finally, an application to nonlinear integral equation also, numerical example illustrate our main r...
