#1 - Compressive lesions of the central nervous system in goats and sheep: A retrospective study of 11 cases in the Amazon biome
Abstract in English:
This paper describes, within the framework of a retrospective study, the epidemiological and clinicopathological findings in goats and sheep with compressive lesions of the central nervous system (CNS) in Pará. This study included eight sheep and three goats from 2005 to 2022 by reviewing the clinical files of animals with CNS compressive lesions managed by the team of the Carlos Tokarnia Veterinary Hospital of the Institute of Veterinary Medicine of the Federal University of Pará. The animals with clinical signs were subjected to a general and specific clinical examination of the nervous system. All animals included in the study were necropsied, and the clinical signs were found to vary according to the location of the lesion. At necropsy, changes such as an abscess with osteomyelitis of the vertebral body with pathologic fracture and spinal cord compression, submeningeal abscess in the skull floor, subarachnoid hematoma, and congenital bone changes causing spinal cord compression and ankylosing spondylitis were noted. These findings indicate that a comprehensive clinical examination of the CNS in conjunction with necropsy findings is essential to characterize the clinical picture, localize the lesion, and determine the cause of the disease. The most affected medullary segment was between T3 and L3. Therefore, these diseases should be included in the list of differential diagnoses in farm animals with nervous system symptoms.

O presente trabalho descreve, através de estudo retrospectivo, os achados epidemiológicos e clínico-patológicos em caprinos e ovinos com lesões compressivas no sistema nervoso central (SNC) no estado do Pará. O estudo retrospectivo compreendeu as observações realizadas em oito ovinos e três caprinos no período de 2005 a 2022, por meio da revisão dos arquivos de fichas clínicas de animais com lesões compressivas no SNC, atendidos pelo Hospital Veterinário Carlos Tokarnia do Instituto de Medicina Veterinária da Universidade Federal do Pará. Os animais atendidos com sintomatologia clínica foram submetidos a exames clínicos geral e específico do sistema nervoso. Todos os animais incluídos no estudo foram necropsiados. Os sinais clínicos variaram de acordo com a localização da lesão. Os achados de necropsia revelaram alterações como abscesso com osteomielite do corpo da vértebra com fratura patológica e compressão da medula espinhal; abscesso sub-meningeano no assoalho do crânio; hematoma subaracnoideo e alteração óssea congênita causando compressão medular e espondilite anquilosante. A realização de um minucioso exame clínico do SNC, associado aos achados de necropsia foi importante para caracterizar o quadro clínico, localizar a lesão e determinar a causa da enfermidade. O segmento medular mais acometido foi entre T3-L3. Torna-se importante incluir estas enfermidades na lista de diagnósticos diferenciais em animais de produção que apresentem sintomatologia nervosa.
#2 - Lead poisoning in cattle and chickens in the state of Pará, Brazil, 34(11):1077-1080

The present study describes the occurrence of lead poisoning in cattle and chickens in Pará, Brazil. In a lot composed of 80 calves from a dairy herd, 10 animals became sick and nine died, but one animal recovered after being removed from the paddock. Upon inspection of this paddock, the presence of truck batteries used to store energy captured by solar panels was found. The clinical signs observed in calves included difficult breathing, nasal discharge, excessive salivation, corneal opacity, pushing of the head against objects and recumbency. The chickens had decreased oviposition and produced eggs with thin or malformed shells. The necropsy findings of the cattle, as well as the histopathological changes observed, were of little significance except for one animal that showed mild astrocytosis histopathology in the cerebral cortex. In one of the chickens, renal histopathology showed mild multifocal acute tubular necrosis. The mean lead concentrations in the livers and kidneys of the cattle were 93.91mg/kg and 209.76mg/kg, respectively, and the mean concentration detected in chicken livers was 105.02mg/kg. It was concluded that the source of lead poisoning in these calves and chickens were the truck battery plates, which were within reach of the animals.

Nine cases of equine encephalomyelitis on Marajó Island, state of Pará, Brazil, were studied. The affected horses had difficulty to stand, walked in circles, with marked depression, closed eyelids, tongue paralysis, muscle tremors, bruxism, anorexia and dehydration. Some had their ear and eyelid reflexes diminished, decreased tongue tone and tachycardia; laid down frequently they kept their head on the chest. Often they were seen resting their head on tree trunks or fences. At necropsy, hemorrhages of the meninges and spinal cord, and in some animals also adhesion of the meninges were found. Histologically there was diffuse encephalitis affecting mainly the gray matter, with meningitis and choroiditis. Presence of perivascular cuffs consisting of mononuclear inflammatory cells was observed. From two horses the Eastern equine encephalitis virus was identified by semi-nested reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (semi-nested RT-PCR).

Nove casos de encefalomielite equina foram estudados na Ilha de Marajó, estado do Pará, Brasil. Os equinos apresentavam dificuldade em se manter em estação, andavam em círculo, tinham acentuada depressão, pálpebras cerradas, paralisia da língua, tremores musculares, bruxismo, anorexia e desidratação. Alguns apresentavam diminuição dos reflexos auricular, palpebral, de ameaça, diminuição do tônus da língua e taquicardia. Posição de auto-auscultação foi observada com frequência. Os animais muitas vezes eram encontrados apoiados em troncos e cercas para se manterem em estação. À necropsia verificou-se hemorragia das leptomeninges e da medula, alguns apresentaram ainda aderência das leptomeninges. À histopatologia verificou-se encefalite difusa que afetava principalmente a substância cinzenta, com meningite e coroidite. Foi observada perivasculite mononuclear. Em dois equinos identificou-se o vírus da encefalomielite equina Leste pela reação de Semi-Nested transcrição reversa de polimerase em cadeia (Semi-Nested RT-PCR).

A condition with enlargement of the oral cleft in horses was studied. The enlargement of varied extension was uni or bilateral. The cheek mucosa of the labial commissure showed slight erosions. During chewing there was loss of small amounts of grass and saliva through the oral cleft. The affected horses were in good nutritional condition. Histopathological studies of tissues obtained by biopsia, revealed a superficial epidermitis. The pastures consisted of Panicum maximum grass (varieties Tanzânia, Mombaça, Tobiatã and Colonião) which was mature, tall, lignified, with leaves of cutting edges. Based on epidemiological, clinical and histopathological data, it was concluded that the lesions were caused by the hard grass, favored by the way horses pull the tall grass and chew it.
