“…Increased concentrations of urea and creatinine were also found. This could be due to dehydration and secondary pre-renal insufficiency and/or renal insufficiency caused by tubular necrosis due to the release of myoglobin during rhabdomyolysis ( 46 – 49 ).…”

over a 9-years period. Methods: Clinical data of all the wildlife ungulates admitted to the VTH were recorded. Blood samples were also taken from the animals for hematological and biochemical analysis. An assessment of ecto-and endoparasites was carried out, diagnostic imaging assessment was performed, and the outcomes were recorded. Results: Data concerning clinical parameters, blood work, parasitological analysis, and diagnostic imaging diagnosis were expressed as prevalence. Conclusion: The rescue and emergency treatments were related mostly to traumas caused by car accidents, followed by other causes. The traumatic injuries were mostly severe, characterized by multiple lesions involving hard and soft tissues. In this study, traffic accidents were the main cause of wildlife rescue and emergency management. This is probably due to the increased population of ungulates over the years, along with the considerable anthropization of the Pisa area.

“…However, an animal's defensive mechanisms can react quite differently to different bacteria; therefore, there is no singular pattern in complete blood count that indicates a bacterial infection. Nevertheless, there are few abnormalities that are suggestive of bacterial infection such as neutrophilia with a left shift being the hallmark of acute inflammation (Walton, 2013;Guess et al, 2013). The Partial Thromboplastin Time (PTT) or activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) is a performance indicator measuring the efficacy of both the 'intrinsic' and the common coagulation pathways (Park et al, 2009).…”

“…Neutrophils normally are released from bone marrow as mature cells, which after a brief period in circulation transmigrate through the vascular endothelium into tissues. Their primary function is ingestion and killing of bacteria (Walton, 2013;Guess et al, 2013). To perform its functions, neutrophils employ mediators that promote inflammation and eliminate invading microorganisms.…”

“…Neutrophilia with a left shift is the classic response to inflammation, usually accompanied by lymphopenia and eosinopenia, reflecting endogenous steroids release. Monocytosis is an inconsistent finding and may reflect a response to endogenous steroids or effects of mediators of inflammation (Walton, 2013;Guess et al, 2013). In this study, inoculation of whole cells resulted in significant increased (p<0.05) in neutrophil counts, which is consistent with observations by other workers (Walton, 2013;Guess et al, 2013;Praveena et al, 2010).…”

The increased neutrophils count in this study, however, was not very high since HS is a systemic disease (Jesse et al, 2013d).…”

Haemorrhagic septicaemia in cattle and buffaloes is an economically important livestock disease in Asia including Malaysia. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the biochemical and hematological alterations in mice model inoculated with outer membrane protein, lipopolysaccharides and whole cells of Pasteurella multocida type B: 2. Two hundred healthy male mice of eight to ten weeks old were used in this study. The mice were divided into four equal groups of 50 mice each. Mice of group 1 were inoculated intra-peritoneal with 1.0 mL sterile Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) pH7, group 2 were inoculated with 1.0 mL of 10⁹ colony forming unit (cfu) of P. multocida B: 2. Mice of groups 3 and 4 were inoculated intra-peritoneal with 1.0 mL of LPS and 1.0 mL of OMP, respectively. Blood samples were collected from the moribund animals and the biochemical and hematological parameters were assessed using ANOVA and Tukey-Kramer test. In the hematology, significant decreases were observed in the treatment groups compared to the control group. Increases were only observed in band neutrophils, eosinophils and plasma proteins in the treatment groups compared to the control group. In the serum biochemistry, significant increases were observed in the treatment groups compared to the control group. Decreases were only observed in AP and albumin: globulin ratio. In electrolytes, significant increases were observed in chloride and calcium in the treatment groups compared to the control. In conclusion, all the immunogen group of mice showed changes in complete blood count and biochemistry profiles with some differences between the groups

Rabbit production is very important to improve the consumption of animal proteins in developing nations (Adeyinka, 2007). The occurrence of diseases is inevitable in any animal production unit and leads to prospective economic losses (Quesada et al., 2013). Pasteurellosis induced by Pasteurella multocida (P. multocida), a virulent and readily transmitted coccobacillus, is one of the rabbit's most serious bacterial diseases and leads to great financial damages in big production systems worldwide (Takashima et al., 2001). This disease is characterized by multiple clinical symptoms, like respiratory distress, genital disorders, otitis, abscesses and septicaemia, but P. multocida infection may also asymptomatic (Jaglic et al., 2008). Rabbits could become infected with P. multocida instantly after birth, and the incidence of colonization rises with age to approximately 5 months. Most adult rabbits are thought to have been infected with P. multocida (Palócz et al., 2014).
