Smith, D.F., Munson, L. and Erb, H.N., 1986. Predictive values for clinical signs of abomasal ulcer disease in adult dairy cattle. Prey. Vet. Med., 3: 573--580. A 12-month prospective study was performed to determine the predictive values for clinical signs of abomasal ulcer disease in a hospital population of 296 adult dairy cows which were believed to have gastrointestinal dysfunction. There ...

abomasal ulcer is one of the main gastrointestinal diseases among ruminants in which characterized clinically by hemorrhagia,melena, acute diffuse peritonitis, death and subclinically by indigestion and mild hemorrhagic form. the subclinical form is diagnosed in autopsy or abattoir and more current than clinical form. to determine the types, age and sex distribution of subclinical abomasal ulce...

to evaluate the serum concentrations of haptoglobin (hp) and serum amyloid a (saa) in water buffaloes with abomasal ulcers, the abomasums of 100 randomly selected water buffaloes were examined after slaughter. type i abomasal ulcers were found in 56 out of 100 buffaloes. serum concentrations of hp and saa were measured. there was no significant difference between affected and non-affected buffa...

abomasal ulcer is a digestive disorder in domestic ruminants. there are several forms of ulcers which produce different clinical signs. for determination of lesion prevalence, abomasa of 200 buffaloes were examined grossly and in some cases, histopathologically. one hundred and twenty seven examined abomasa (63.5%) had ulcerative lesions. all ulcers (except in 2 cases) were classified as type 1...

Serum pepsinogen activity was determined in the blood serum of 126 clinically healthy cows by the method of Paynter. After slaughter the cows studied were classified into three groups according to established macroscopic changes to the mucous membrane of the abomasum: a group without changes, a group with ulcers and a group with other changes. The prevalence of the appearance of abomasal ulcers...
