ABSTRACT. In this review, updated and precise definitions of the most common postpartum uterine diseases in dairy cows are provided. An aberrant uterine environment at inappropriate stages of the reproductive cycle inflicts damage to gametes and zygotes, impairing the reproductive performance of dairy cows. This involves major economic losses for the milk production unit. Consequently, an accurate diagnosis of postpartum uterine diseases is indispensable for practitioners to set up a prompt and efficient treatment. This review furthermore emphasizes on the new perspectives regarding diagnosis and treatment of subclinical endometritis, a highly prevalent uterine disease that is often overlooked by practitioners while causing major reproductive problems. Based on a more profound clinical understanding of the postpartum uterine disease complex, practitioners will be able to better use the available diagnostic tools and therefore apply a more efficient therapeutic approach. RESUMEN. El objetivo de este artículo de revisión es proporcionar definiciones actualizadas y precisas de las enfermedades uterinas posparto más comunes en vacas lecheras. Un ambiente uterino hostil en etapas inapropiadas del ciclo reproductivo inflige daño a los gametos y cigotos, lo que perjudica el rendimiento reproductivo de las vacas lecheras. En este contexto, una menor fertilidad contribuye negativamente al éxito económico de la unidad de producción lechera. En consecuencia, un diagnóstico adecuado de la enfermedad del útero en el posparto es indispensable para que los profesionales veterinarios puedan establecer un tratamiento con prontitud y eficacia. Esta revisión hace hincapié en las nuevas perspectivas de diagnóstico y tratamiento de la endometritis subclínica, una patología uterina de alta prevalencia que a menudo los profesionales pasan por alto. Así, con una profunda comprensión clínica del complejo de enfermedades del posparto uterino, podrán utilizarse mejor las herramientas de diagnóstico disponibles y por lo tanto aplicar un enfoque terapéutico más eficiente.

Application of polymerase chain reaction on cerebrospinal fluid for diagnosis of cerebral coenurosis in small ruminants

et al. 2015

Sheep and goats serve as intermediate hosts for the canine tapeworm Taenia multiceps. The cysts produced by the intermediate stage of parasite are usually found in the cerebral hemispheres of small ruminants, and the resulting disease is commonly known as coenurosis. Coenurosis is clinically manifested in the form of various nervous symptoms, depending on the exact location of the cyst. The variety of neurological symptoms contributes to the complexity of clinical diagnosis and reinforces the need for a more specific and acceptable diagnostic approach. We demonstrated here, for the first time, that the T. multiceps DNA is present in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of the infected sheep and goats. In addition, the molecular genetic marker of the mitochondrial DNA was applied phylogenetically to show that our isolates together with other T. multiceps strains comprised a monophyletic group that is a sister to Taenia krabbei. Pairwise comparison between the cox1 sequences of our study and other T. multiceps genotypes existing in the GenBank showed similarity ranging from 98 to 100%. Accordingly, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can be used for amplification of DNA of the parasite originated from the CSF and provides a valuable method for accurate identification of coenurosis cases.
