In the routine of small animal veterinary clinics, the ingestion of foreign bodies, such as pieces of fabric, shoelaces, ropes, balls, bones and toothpicks, is common. Depending on the case and the amount ingested, they may pass normally in the feces or may require surgical intervention to remove. Symptoms can be broad, mainly including the occurrence of vomiting, lack of appetite and apathy. For the correct diagnosis of the disease, a combination of factors such as anamnesis, symptoms and the results of complementary tests such as radiography and ultrasound, must be taken into account. This work aims to report a case of a linear foreign body removed by gastrotomy in a dog.

This article presents a detailed analysis of 263 cases treated in the endocrinology sector of the Anclivepa Mazei Unit during the year 2023, exposing a significant change in the profile of endocrine diseases in dogs and cats. The results indicated a marked prevalence of obesity, reaching 20,53% of cases, and diabetes mellitus, representing 19,39%. Notably, the distribution by sex revealed a predominance of females (57.79%), of which a large proportion were castrated (80.26%). In terms of age groups, the highest proportion of animals treated were over 8 years old (68.82%). Furthermore, the analysis of the body score condition showed that, in addition to obese animals, 28.52% were overweight and 33.08% maintained an ideal weight, highlighting the need for nutritional intervention and weight management. Comparatively, the observed frequency of hypothyroidism was only 4.94%, marking a significant contrast with previous studies that highlighted this condition as one of the most prevalent in endocrine clinical settings. This study suggests that changes in pet lifestyle, influenced by owner practices, along with advances in diagnostic methods, play a crucial role in observed endocrine health trends. We also highlight the critical need to educate owners in regards to proper feeding and exercise practices for their animals, in addition to the importance of advancing the diagnosis and treatment of these conditions.

Sporotrichosis is a mycosis caused by the fungus Sporothrix sp, which is found in plants, trees, and soil, associated with decomposing plant remains. The disease can affect various species, especially felines which, in turn, are the main transmitters of sporotrichosis to humans. Infection by Sporothrix sp. occurs through contact between injured skin and surfaces contaminated with the fungus, or scratching or biting by diseased animals. In addition to the skin manifestation, sporotrichosis can also occur in extracutaneous form, affecting multiple organs such as the lungs, lymph nodes, liver, spleen and kidneys. There is no preventive vaccine for the disease and it is treated with synthetic fungistatic agents with a broad spectrum of antifungal activity. Sporotrichosis is considered one of the most relevant mycoses in veterinary medicine and an underdiagnosed zoonosis, mainly due to the lack of control and prevention initiatives, which consequently leads to a lack of public awareness. In the states of Pernambuco, Rio de Janeiro and in some cities in states of São Paulo, Minas Gerais Bahia, Rio Grande do Norte and Paraíba have compulsory notification of cases. Since December 1, 2020, the notification of sporotrichosis in dogs and cats has become mandatory in the city of São Paulo. The purpose of this review is to emphasize that sporotrichosis is an emerging zoonosis that is underdiagnosed in Brazil. Information and publicity campaigns are needed to reinforce the importance of treatment and the potential for a cure, as well as effective educational measures related to public health programs for the control of human and animal sporotrichosis. Responsible pet ownership campaigns, which emphasize the importance of neutering and restricting street access, are of paramount importance for the epidemiological control of the disease. Veterinarians have a fundamental role to play in guiding the guardian, emphasizing that the lack of treatment, in addition to causing great suffering to the affected animal, can contribute to the spread of the disease, including to humans.

The purpose of this work is to present a detailed analysis of the evolution of legislation on animal rights, highlighting its evolution over time and the importance of animal welfare. We explore the importance of philosophers such as Tom Regan and Peter Singer in promoting moral equality between humans and animals, as well as relevant legal frameworks in Brazil, such as the 1988 Federal Constitution and the 1998 Environmental Crimes Law. Furthermore, we address recent legislative advances and the need for public awareness regarding animal protection and combating animal abuse. Gaps in legislation are highlighted, such as a lack of adequate penalties and deficiencies in supervision; issues such as illegal animal trade and cultural and economic conflicts are also addressed. The crucial role of the media in promoting animal rights and welfare is highlighted, underlining the importance of continuous review of the legislation and improvements in supervision to ensure adequate protection of animals and promote a culture of respect and welfare in relation to human and nonhuman animals.

Requirements covering animal, public and environmental health challenge veterinary medicine and the law. In this context, legal and forensic veterinary medicine in Brazil has grown in recent years with significant scientific knowledge. Several animals are reservoirs and carriers of zoonoses which transmit pathogens to humans. Leptospirosis is an infectious disease that impacts animal reproduction and production with negative consequences on animal, public and environmental health (One Health). It is an important zoonosis caused by pathogenic species of the genus Leptospira spp. It is distributed worldwide and transmission to susceptible species occurs through direct or indirect contact with infected individuals. Poor sanitation and garbage collection favor the presence of substrates that attract rodents to properties, increasing the risk of the disease occurring. The World Health Organization (WHO) founded Veterinary Public Health, an area that includes the Veterinary Doctor with responsibilities in public health actions, with an important role in One Health. This literature review was designed based on current knowledge on the platforms Pubmed and Google Scholar, articles and textbooks. We aim to identify, understand and discuss the impacts of leptospirosis on reproduction, animal health, public health, and its legal and forensic aspects in One Health. The disease is an animal, public, and environmental health problem that has seasonal characteristics and occurs in urban and rural areas. It is a neglected disease and is directly related to precarious urban and health infrastructure. The veterinarian plays a fundamental role in assisting legal and forensic legal actions in the field of One Health.

The present study aimed to report a clinical case of leptospirosis diagnosed in a mixed breed dog where treatment was chosen without hospitalization. Leptospirosis is an infectious and contagious zoonotic disease caused by the spirochete of the genus Leptospira spp. All pathogenic lineages belong to a single species, Leptospira interrogans. This microorganism can affect both humans and animals, be they domestic, wild or production. Dogs and cats are susceptible, but felines have greater resistance to leptospirosis. Synanthropic rodents in large urban centers or rural areas constitute a major problem, as they end up transmitting it to domestic and stray animals. Animals become infected and end up eliminating spirochetes into the environment through contaminated urine, since leptospirosis has a predilection for the renal tubules. Transmission can be direct through contaminated urine, venereal secretions, placental transfer, bite wounds or ingestion of contaminated tissues. Leptospira can enter the body through intact oral, nasal or ocular mucous membranes, or through skin that is damaged or macerated by moisture. Indirect transmission occurs through contact with contaminated water, soil and food sources. In Brazil, where many locations lack a garbage collection system and sewage disposal is precarious, the tropical climate favors rain during summer, all increasing the role of rodents as vectors of this zoonosis due to flooding. The canine mentioned in this study did not have their vaccination protocol up to date, lived in a place with the presence of rodents, and was diagnosed positive for L. interrogans serovars Bratislava, Pomona and Copenhageni by the microscopic agglutination test (MAT), considered the gold standard. The changes in the blood count were limited to normocytic normochromic anemia and hyperproteinemia. No noteworthy changes were observed in the white blood cell count and, in the biochemical tests, liver and kidney changes consistent with the pathology were evident. The therapeutic protocol chosen was antibiotic therapy and supportive therapy, both carried out at the guardian's home, and the prognosis was favorable. Preventive vaccination measures according to the challenge faced in the environment, rodent control and also public policies regarding basic sanitation are important in preventing in zoonosis.

A osteodistrofia hipertrófica é um distúrbio ósseo idiopático que afeta cães jovens de raças grandes e gigantes, cuja etiologia permanece desconhecida. Este distúrbio está associado a fatores como suplementação excessiva de vitaminas, hipovitaminose C e microrganismos infecciosos. As manifestações clínicas incluem febre, claudicação, sensibilidade dolorosa e sintomas sistêmicos variados. Os sinais radiográficos revelam zonas radio transparentes adjacentes às linhas fisárias de ossos longos. O presente relato aborda o radiodiagnóstico de osteodistrofia hipertrófica em cadela Fila Brasileiro de oito meses, que inicialmente manifestou desvio cifótico na coluna, hiporexia, fezes amolecidas, fraqueza e atrofia muscular. Os exames laboratoriais indicaram alterações nos níveis de proteína, fosfatase alcalina, colesterol, cálcio e fósforo. Radiografias evidenciaram lise óssea em epífise e não união do processo ancôneo. O tratamento adotado incluiu correção dietética e suplementação de vitaminas e minerais. Embora a etiologia permaneça desconhecida, fatores genéticos, infecciosos e dietéticos são considerados predisponentes. Os sinais radiográficos característicos incluem o aspecto de fise dupla, necrose por colapso do trabeculado ósseo e reações periosteais. O tratamento, focado na correção da dieta e suplementação, resultou em melhora clínica e remissão parcial dos sinais radiográficos.
肥大性骨质营养不良症是一种特发性骨病,多发于大型犬和巨型犬的幼犬,病因至今不明。这种疾病与维生素补充过量、维生素 C 过低和感染性微生物等因素有关。临床表现包括发烧、跛行、疼痛和各种全身症状。影像学表现为长骨骺线附近的放射性透明区。本报告涉及对一只八个月大的巴西菲拉母犬肥大性骨营养不良症的放射诊断,该犬最初表现为脊柱弯曲、厌食、粪便稀软、虚弱和肌肉萎缩。实验室检查显示,蛋白质、碱性磷酸酶、胆固醇、钙和磷的含量发生了变化。X 光片显示骨骺溶解,髁突未愈合。所采取的治疗措施包括纠正饮食、补充维生素和矿物质。虽然病因尚不清楚,但遗传、感染和饮食因素被认为是易患因素。其特征性的影像学表现包括出现双髋骨、骨小梁塌陷导致的坏死以及骨膜反应。治疗的重点是纠正饮食习惯和补充营养,治疗后临床症状有所改善,影像学症状也得到部分缓解。

O tétano é causado pelas toxinas sintetizadas pelo Clostridium tetani, bactéria Gram-positiva, esporulada e anaeróbica obrigatória. A espécie equina possui uma alta exposição e sensibilidade ao patógeno. Sendo assim, as medidas profiláticas como vacinação, antissepsia de feridas com água oxigenada e soro antitetânico em feridas cirúrgicas são necessárias Os sinais clínicos apresentados são a principal ferramenta diagnóstica, pois na maioria das vezes os sinais são patognomônicos, sendo eles posição de cavalete, andar rígido, cauda em bandeira, protusão de 3ª pálpebra, sensibilidade a estímulos sonoros e luminosos, dispneia e disfagia. A toxi-infecção ocorre a partir de feridas pré-existentes ou decorrente de lesões gastrointestinais. O objetivo deste estudo é relatar um caso de tétano em uma égua de 10 anos, SRD, abordando características diagnósticas e terapêuticas. O tratamento clínico se demonstrou eficaz, com resultados satisfatórios após aplicação intratecal e intravenosa de soro antitetânico, somados com antibioticoterapia e medicações que promovem relaxamento

Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a atividade antibacteriana in vitro do extrato aquoso de Baccharis dracunculifolia e Tamarindus indica L., dos extratos naturais líquidos da casca da castanha de caju (LCC) e do óleo essencial (OE) de cravo contra cinco espécies de bactérias ruminais Gram-negativas. As culturas foram cultivadas em meio anaeróbio contendo 0,1, 0,2, 0,5 e 1,0 mg mL-1 dos extratos ou óleos. O crescimento foi avaliado monitorando a densidade óptica (DO 600 nm) em intervalos de 0, 8, 12 e 24 horas de incubação a 39° C. O extrato aquoso de baccharis e tamarindo e o extrato natural de LCC inibiram o crescimento de Prevotella albensis, Prevotella bryantii, Treponema saccharophilum e Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens. Para Prevotella ruminicola e Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens, a adição de 1,0 mg mL-1 de OE de folhas de cravo resultou em maior impacto na dinâmica de crescimento, com redução na densidade óptica em todos os intervalos de observações. Os resultados desta pesquisa estabelecem a eficácia dos aditivos naturais extratos aquosos de baccharis e tamarindo, LCC e óleo essencial de cravo, na atividade antimicrobiana in vitro contra as bactérias ruminais Gram-negativas analisadas.
