Intestinal motility disorders are an important problem in horses and donkeys and this study was carried out in order to evaluate the enteric neurons in animals with and without intestinal disease. Surplus intestinal tissue samples were collected from 28 horses undergoing exploratory laparotomy for colic. In addition, surplus intestinal samples from 17 control horses were collected immediately f...

In the present study bacteriophages isolated from rainbow trout farms and sewage treatment plants were genetically identified and their effectiveness on Yersinia ruckeri isolates from clinical cases of red mouth disease was investigated.  Fish samples suspected to red mouth disease were collected from rainbow trout farms located in west Azerbaijan. Y. ruckeri, the causative agent of red mouth d...

The lumen of the gastrointestinal tract harbors a diverse community microbes, fungi, archaea, and viruses. In addition to occupying same enteric niche, recent evidence suggests that microbes viruses can act synergistically and, in some cases, promote disease. this review, we focus on disease-promoting interactions gut microbiota rotavirus, norovirus, poliovirus, reovirus, astrovirus. Microbes m...

The Canadian Arctic has a long history with diarrheal disease, including outbreaks of campylobacteriosis, giardiasis, and salmonellosis. Due to climate change, the is experiencing rapid environmental transformation, which not only threatens livelihood local Indigenous Peoples, but also supports spread, frequency, intensity enteric pathogen outbreaks.

conclusions the most important factor in childhood acute gastroenteritis in east anatolia is the rotavirus. rotavirus and adenovirus antigens should be routinely investigated as a factor in fresh stool samples for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of gastroenteritis in children in the winter and autumn months. patients and methods the records of stool sample analyses for 1154 patients admitt...

BACKGROUND Children suffer the highest burden of enteric fever among populations in South Asian countries. The clinical features are non-specific, vary in populations, and are often difficult to distinguish clinically from other febrile illnesses, leading to delayed or inappropriate diagnosis and treatment. We undertook a systematic review to assess the clinical profile and laboratory features ...

BACKGROUND Enteric fever is very common infectious disease in developing countries like Nepal. Due to lack of resources diagnosis has to be clinical most of the time. Hence a proposal of clinical diagnostic criteria and validation of the same would be very useful. OBJECTIVE To validate the proposed clinical diagnostic criterion including features characterized as major and minor criteria. M...

The number of foodborne disease outbreaks reported in the United States declined substantially in 2009, when the surveillance system transitioned from reporting only foodborne disease outbreaks to reporting all enteric disease outbreaks. A 2013 survey found that some outbreaks that would have been previously reported as foodborne are now reported as having other transmission modes.

acute gastroenteritis (age) has a great impact on children less than five years of age, producing high levels of morbidity and mortality. worldwide, age is mainly related to viruses, mainly rotavirus but human adenovirus (hadv) in particular as an important etiologic agent. among hadv species f, genotypes 40 and 41 are responsible for a high number of diarrhea cases, mainly in children under 2 ...
