“…Measurement of APP levels gives accurate and clear results in the diagnosis of inflammatory diseases in ruminants compared with hematological findings. It has been reported that it can be a helpful parameter in the diagnosis in the diseases such as neonatal diarrhea [25][26][27], omphalitis [28,29], pneumonia [30], ascaridiosis [31], besnoitiosis [32], Trypanosoma evansi [33], anaplasmosis [34][35][36], hypodermosis [37], in the bacterial and viral diseases such as brucellosis [38], tuberculosis [39], reticuloperitonitis traumatica [40,41], foot-and-mouth disease [42], as well as in fatty liver [43] including dystocia [44] and subclinical ketosis (Table 1) [45,46]. In addition, in another study conducted in cattle with endometritis, it has been reported that haptoglobin and TNF-α levels decreased significantly after the treatment compared to the pre-treatment values [47] and that progesterone-releasing intravaginal device (PRID) administration increases haptoglobin and ceruloplasmin levels, but decreases albumin levels in another study conducted by Kuru et al [48] in cattle.…”
