Avaliação ultrassonográfica e mensurações das glândulas adrenais em primatas não humanos neotropicais: mico-de-cheiro (Saimiri sciureus), macaco-da-noite (Aotus azarae infulatus) e bugio-ruivo (Alouatta guariba clamitans)

Abstract: Pesq. Vet. Bras. 34(9):903-910, setembro 2014 903 RESUMO.-As glândulas adrenais possuem funções endócrinas relacionadas a múltiplas funções vitais, estando intimamente relacionadas à capacidade do animal em se adaptar ao estresse. O exame ultrassonográfico é o método diagnóstico de escolha para avaliação das glândulas em diferentes espécies. Considerando a escassa literatura, questiona-se se as doenças adrenais em primatas não humanos são incomuns ou subdiagnosticadas, havendo a hipótese desse fato ser determi… Show more

“…Proper evaluation of the gastrointestinal tract of non-human primates demonstrated more limitations compared to dogs and cats (Newell et al, 1999). These animals have a higher amount of gas content, predominantly in the stomach, making the assessment a difficult task, which may be explained by its potentially fermentative diet (Souza et al, 2014). Similar manatees, a monogastric species, have a diet based on aquatic plants.…”
