“…Anemia, owing to overproduction of cytokines and reactive oxygen species, is a significant feature of theileriosis (Nazifi et al 2009;Saleh et al 2011). Anabolic steroids have been widely used in the past for the treatment of aplastic anemia and other hypoplastic clonal hematological diseases (Tsiara et al 2004).…”

Two crossbred female calves aged between 30 and 35 days were presented with bilateral exophthalmia, inappetence, pyrexia and cachexia since last 15 days. Clinical examination revealed mainly bilateral exophthalmia with dry and pulpy cornea, generalized enlargement of superficial lymph nodes, pallor mucous, petechiae, high rectal temperature and sternal recumbency. The calves were severely infested with Hyalomma anatolicum anatolicum ticks and thin layer blood smears revealed presence of piroplasm in the RBCs, while lymph nodes aspirate smear examination revealed presence schizonts in the mononuclear cells. The calves were treated with buparvaquone; meloxicam, nandrolone decanoate and vitamins A, D 3 , E and H. From day second post-therapy a remarkable improvement in the clinical condition was noticed and substantial reduction in the both protruded eyeballs was noticed by 7 days post-therapy in the both calves. Further at day 47 post-therapy the one calf was free from the parasite on blood smear examination and right eye was retracted in its orbits with full of sight. Moreover the left eye was also retracted in its orbit but there was loss of sight and opacity developed in this eye. While, the other calf also revealed remarkable improvement in the clinical condition and both eye balls retracted completely into the orbit at day 30 post-therapy. But, at day 86 the calf developed microphthalmia and complete loss of sight in both eyes. It can be concluded that adjunction of antioxidants and hematopoietic agents may salvage the calves suffering from fatal theileriosis.

“…There is a progressive development of anemia in theileriosis (1)(2)(3)5,7,21), and severe anemia can be associated with the duration of disease. The increase in oxygen saturation is probably dependent on the shift in oxygen dissociation curve to the left (34) as a result of the methemoglobin formations, which increase parallel to anemia severity (7,35).…”

Pure poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) films and PEO-FeCl 3 films of various concentration were prepared and studied for thermal and optical properties. Various analytical techniques like XRD, EDX, SEM, TGA, and UV were used to examine the structural properties of PEO and PEO-FeCl 3 systems. X-ray scans (XRD) revealed the existence of some crystalline part in the PEO matrix. The concentration of FeCl 3 has a great effect on the crystallinity of PEO. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) data established that accumulation of FeCl 3 to PEO films enhanced the thermal stability of PEO. The optical properties of these systems were also studied in the UV-Visible region as a function of FeCl 3 concentration at room temperature.The obtained data were analyzed in terms of absorption formula for non-crystalline materials. From the measured absorption data optical energy gaps (E opt) were determined. The optical energy gap was found to decrease with the increase in FeCl 3 concentration, which indicates that FeCl 3 concentration had a significant influence on optical energy band gap. The absorption coefficient increased sharply at concentration of FeCl 3 (5%) wt as compared with the pure PEO.

“…Another significant finding of BTT viz., anemia is contributed to overproduction of cytokines, immune-mediated hemolysis and reactive oxygen species (Nazifi et al 2009;Saleh et al 2011). The T. annulata infected cells undergo clonal expansion resulting in lymphoproliferation or lymphoadenopathy (Woods et al 2013).…”

124 cattle naturally infected with Theileria annulata were inspected for clinical markers. Clinical manifestations of general weakness, reduced appetite, pyrexia reaching 40-42°C and lachrymal discharge were seen in more than 75 % of the infected animals. Presence of ticks on body, general dullness and depression, recumbency/prostration, oedema of dependent body parts, diarrhea, hypersalivation, pale mucous membranes and yellow colored urine were revealed by more than 50 % of the infected animals. Clinical manifestations of dehydration, abdominal distension/ascites, jaundice and haemoglobinuria were revealed by more than 25 % of the infected animals less than 25 % of the infected animals showed clinical manifestations of exophthalmia, constipation, melena, buccal cavity erosions, congested mucous membranes, nasal discharge and tachypnoea.
