“…The age range between 5 and 10 years was the one that presented the highest (p<0.05) occurrence of pyometra in the animals of the study. This observation suggests that the prevalence of pyometra in animals in this age group increases as a result of changes due to chronic and repetitive exposure of the uterus to progesterone during the estrous phase (Gibson et al, 2013;Hagman, 2018;Kumar & Saxena, 2018;Solano et al, 2019). Moreover, it was identified that the second group with the highest occurrence was animals under five years of age (young animals), showing that pyometra can also affect young animals, and that it is probably associated with an abnormal response of the uterus to a prolonged phase of exposure to progesterone instead of repetitive exposures, as it occurs in older bitches (Hagman, 2004).…”

“…Among the clinical signs identified, three presented higher prevalence (p<0.05), being apathy (94.4%), anorexia/hyporexia (90.1%) and vaginal discharge (83%), evidencing these as the most common symptoms in patients diagnosed with pyometra, especially for being characteristic signs of open pyometra (Hagman et al, 2011;Jitpen et al, 2016;Dyba et al, 2018;Oliveira et al, 2019;Solano et al, 2019).…”

Pyometra is the endometrial disorder of greatest clinical importance in small animals. The realization of studies with the purpose of obtaining epidemiological data related to the occurrence of pyometra in bitches are fundamental. The objective was to determine epidemiological indicators of canine pyometra using the statistical method of principal component analysis and to characterize the set of parameters that facilitate the diagnosis and a possible clinical-epidemiological profile, through the casuistry attended in university veterinary hospitals in the northeastern region of Pará. A total of 142 medical records in two university veterinary hospitals were consulted. A total of 18 variables were analyzed using principal component analysis (PCA) and descriptive statistics. The PCA identified three groups of epidemiological indicators that together explained 71.05% of the variability of the data. The first group (abdominal pain, abdominal distension, critical condition and leukocytosis), the second (apathy, anorexia, pyometra type, and vaginal discharge) and the third (age, race, parity and pseudocyesis). It was observed that 47.7% of the bitches were five to 10 years old, 63.8% were of undefined breed and 62.4% were nulliparous (p<0.05). The pyometra of the open type presented a frequency of 82.4% (p<0.05). The variables pain, abdominal distension and leukocytosis are indicators of severe stage disease. The variables apathy, anorexia/hyporexia and vaginal secretion are indicators of disease in mild stage and the variables age and race act as epidemiological indicators of predisposition. Moreover, it was identified that the clinical-epidemiological profile of affected animals is of middle-aged, non-breed, nulliparous bitches with open pyometra.

“…Recent studies indicated that some bacteria, more specifically the enterobacteria E. coli, are often responsible for the emergence of pyometra in bitches, usually inhabiting the vagina, urinary tract, and intestinal tract of the animals [28,29]. They are also responsible for bacterial infections of the genitourinary tract affecting approximately 10 to 14% of male dogs [30][31][32]. Works focus on the identification and required use of antimicrobials only after the results of the phenotypic tests of susceptibility to these drugs.…”

Background: Contact between humans and pets, mainly dogs and cats, has been increasing in recent years, which may result in the spread of infectious agents to new hosts and even to the environment, causing emergencies of national and international interest. The aim of this work was to understand the phenotypic profile of bacteria of the Enterobacteriaceae family of vaginal and preputial mucous of stray dogs from a border region.Materials, Methods & Results: Swab samples from the vaginal and preputial mucosa of stray dogs from two border regions were collected for later bacterial isolation, biochemical identification of bacterial isolates, susceptibility tests to different antimicrobials, and determination of the bacterial resistance index. Samples were collected from 70 animals, was possible to isolate 88 samples, of which 36 (40.9%) presented isolates of Gram-negative bacteria, with Escherichia coli being the most prevalent species (44.8%), followed by Obesumbacterium proteus in eight (27.5%); Enterobacter aerogenes and Enterobacter cloacae in two (6.8%); and Erwinia herbicola, Koserella trabulsii, Proteus mirabilis, and Serratia rubidaea (3.4%) from one isolate. The most resistant antimicrobials Clindamycin (100%), Metronidazole (100%), Oxacillin (100%), and Penicillin (100%) were tested against the vaginal and preputial samples and when the multidrug resistance index of the isolates was analyzed, all were classified as presenting a public health risk.Discussion: The results of this work suggest that stray dogs may be considered potential reservoirs of resistant pathogenic microorganisms, enabling future health problems due to the close coexistence of tutors with their dogs. It is known that the microorganisms that inhabit a certain environment or a specific part of the body are collectively called microbiomes. More specifically, some of them are bacteria that inhabit the reproductive mucous membranes (vaginal and preputial) of healthy dogs. Several works have also identified E. coli as the most prevalent bacteria identified in the vaginal and preputial mucosa of healthy dogs, that is regarded as a member of different microbiomes that is a commensal of different species of domestic animals, it is important to stress that this bacterial species presents sophisticated virulence mechanisms possibly responsible for different nosocomial infections as well as community infections in mankind and different species of animals. Found other bacterial species suggests a connection of these bacterial species with different environments and different animal species, which is even more disturbing regarding public health, since most of the time dogs share the same spaces of their tutors, which would facilitate the transmission and interaction with potentially pathogenic microorganisms. The MAR index result is worrying when dealing with stray and asymptomatic dogs, since the behavioral particularities of canine species such as licking the body, licking the genitalia, sniffing the environment for territorial demarcation and, in some cases, coprophagy, may facilitate the transmission of pathogenic microorganisms and even disseminate genes of resistance to their keepers, other animals, and even to the environment. Unique health education works should be conducted in border regions in order to raise awareness of the population involved about the different situations that may favor the dissemination of microorganisms and their resistance genes, including the problems caused by the illegal sale and/or transportation of drugs, a situation that is very common in borders.

“…Se evaluaron las variables sexo, raza y edad. La edad se dividió en cinco categorías: <1, 1-4, 5-8, 9-12 y >12 años (Solano, 2017). La frecuencia de los agentes bacterianos y los patrones de sensibilidad antibiótica fue establecida mediante la fórmula: Ni (total de valores d» X 1 )/N (total de datos: X 1 , X 2 ,…X n ) x 100.…”

El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo describir y analizar los resultados de los aislados bacterianos y sus antibiogramas en pacientes caninos con diagnóstico de infección del tracto urinario, que fueron atendidos en la Clínica de Animales Menores de la Facultad de Medicina Veterinaria de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos entre 2012 y 2017. Se identificaron 97 historias clínicas de pacientes que contaban con exámenes de urocultivos y antibiogramas. Los agentes bacterianos aislados fueron Escherichia coli (36.9%), Staphylococcus sp (28.7%), Proteus sp (27.9%), Pseudomonas sp (3.3%), Klebsiella sp (1.6%), Streptococcus sp (0.8%) y Citrobacter sp (0.8%). Estos evidenciaron una alta resistencia antibiótica debido posiblemente al uso inadecuado de los antibióticos en el medio, por lo que no permite recomendar un tratamiento inicial seguro en pacientes caninos con diagnóstico presuntivo de esta enfermedad.
