Hemangiosarcomas are rare tumours, predominantly affecting adult and elderly patients. Most frequently they involve the skin, although they can occur in visceral organs and other tissues. Hemangiosarcomas pursue an aggressive clinical course with high mortality rates. Primary adrenal hemangiosarcoma is extremely rare. We report a…

Lesions indicative of putative parvovirus infection were detected in a population of freshwater redclaw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus) displaying hypertrophied nuclei, while these changes were undetected in another population. These changes were characterised by hypertrophic nuclei with marginated chromatin but without Cowdry type A (CA) intranuclear…

Recent research has established that sleep is essential for memory consolidation in learning and academic performance of children and adults. Similar evidence in childhood is emerging. Conversely, sleep deprivation and/or sleep problems usually weaken these functions. The present study investigates the association between sleep related…

Empirical antimicrobial guidelines are constantly evolving in response to laboratory susceptibility data. Broad spectrum agents exert a selection pressure gradually increasing antimicrobial resistance over time. In the level 3 neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), the majority of blood culture isolates are coagulase negative staphylococci (CoNS),…

Cephalexin is a first generation cephalosporin widely used in rabbits. Its spectrum includes Pasteurella multocida and Staphylococcus aureus. These bacteria, together with Bordetella bronchiseptica, are the main cause of respiratory infections. Although many textbooks on rabbit therapeutics report the use of cephalexin, including administration schedules,…
