A randomized controlled trial was performed in 17 Colombian dairy herds to determine the cure risk among cows subclinically infected with Streptococcus agalactiae exposed to 2 antibiotic therapies. Composite milk samples were collected before milking at the onset of the trial (pretreatment) and 2 subsequent times over a period of approximately 63 d. The intramammary application (IMM) of ampicillin-cloxacillin was compared with the intramuscular application (IM) of penethamate hydriodide, and cure risks after an initial and retreatment application were assessed. Cure risk after the initial treatment was higher (82.4%) for the IMM treatment than for IM therapy (65.8%). However, no difference was observed in the cure risk of refractory cases after retreatment (IMM=52.6% vs. IM=51.2%). The cumulative cure risk (both initial and retreatment) was 90.4 and 82.9% for the IMM and IM products, respectively. A 2-level random effects logistic model that controlled for pretreatment cow-level somatic cell count, indicated that IM treatment (odds ratio=0.37) had a lower cure risk than IMM and a tendency for a lower cure risk with increasing baseline somatic cell count. Our findings suggest that both products and administration routes can reduce the prevalence of S. agalactiae in affected herds, but the IMM product had a better efficacy in curing the infection. In addition to the treatment protocol, the cow somatic cell count should be considered when making management decisions for cows infected with S. agalactiae.

“…Diabetes mellitus has featured in veterinary literature on numerous occasions but many of the articles have been largely manifestations of opinion based upon few case histories. Exceptional publications were the pioneer works of Wilkinson (1957a) on ninety-three dogs, Wilkinson (1960) on fifty-six dogs, and Krook et al (1960) on 167 dogs. More recently, Lauder (1972) was able to record ninety-seven cases in dogs over a 14-year period at the Glasgow Veterinary School.…”

“…A characteristic opening remark by the majority of commentators on this disease was an estimate of its incidence in both dog and cat. Figures for the dog, varying from a low of 1 : 10,000 (Frohner, 1892;Aellig, 1926), through 21 : 25,854 (Hjarre, 1928, to the more recent ones of 1 : 800 from Bloom (1954) ; 1 : 1,000 (Bloom, 1959) ; 1 :260, 1 : 170, I :200 (Wilkinson, 1960) ; 167: 10,993 (Krook et al, 1960) ; 1 : 1,000 (Dixon & Sanford, 1961) ; 1 : 500 (Joshua, 1963); 1 :200 (Meier, 1960) and 1 :300 (Kast, 1962); they illustrate the extent of speculation and confusion that have arisen.…”

Diabetes mellitus‐A study of the disease in the dog and cat in Kent

A survey carried out using data supplied by members of a territorial division of the BSAVA revealed that a quantity of useful data exists in general practice and, given circumstances under which extraction and interpretation of it can be carried out, new information may be produced. In this instance diabetes mellitus in the dog was shown to occur in Kent particularly in the miniature and toy Poodle as a group and in the standard, wire‐haired, miniature and long‐haired Dachshund as a group. The disease was commonest in the bitch; it showed a peak age occurrence for both sexes during the 10th‐12th year with a winter/spring incidence, but in the entire bitch it followed oestrus and tended to occur during the summer. The prognosis was found to be favourable when treatment with insulin by injection was started early and survival times of 12 months (50% of cases) and 3 years (23%) could be obtained. The prognosis for the cat was favourable despite the different life styles of dog and cat. The variable results and conclusions reached by different authors on this subject may be due to the vagaries of environment, diet, breeds and breed in an area, as well as to temperament, stress factors and genetic potential.
