“…The diagnosis using PCR is highly recommended on faecal samples, in addition to histopathology and immunohistochemistry on necropsy specimens. However, in a poor resource setting, a rapid CPE antigen test kit may be employed especially in dogs showing evidence of diarrhoea (Nahat et al, 2015). Treatment for CPE is largely supportive and symptomatic.…”

Canine parvoviral enteritis (CPE) causes severe clinical disease with high morbidity and mortality in puppies less than 5 months of age and adult dogs with insufficient immunity. Nine-year (2010-2018) data were collated and analyzed on clinical records of dogs infected with CPE in Yola metropolis. Out of 2,220 dogs presented, 177 were diagnosed infected with CPE giving an overall prevalence of 7.97% (95% CI: 6.85-9.05). The annual highest prevalence of 20.59% (95% CI: 16.98-24.65) was recorded in 2018 with 90 cases and lowest prevalence of 1.12% (95% CI: 0.00-2.79) was recorded in 2011 with 2 cases. Based on season, highest prevalence of 16.38% (95% CI: 11.82-21.31) was recorded in December with 38 cases while lowest prevalence of 1.64% (95% CI: 0.00-3.65) was recorded in October with 3 cases. Both annual and monthly prevalence rates varied significantly (P<0.05). Age distribution showed higher prevalence in puppies less than 5 months (8.81%) followed by dogs of 6-11 months (7.25%) and least in dogs older than one year (5.42%). Female dogs were observed to be more affected (8.34%) than male dogs (7.69%). The observed breed prevalence shows highest occurrence in Alsatian (10.11%), followed by Local dogs (8.10%), Rottweiler (6.20%) and Caucasian (5.83%) with least prevalence in Cross breeds (4.39%) with significant statistical difference (X 2 = 11.869, P< 0.05). The prevalence of CPE was observed to be higher in unvaccinated (8.73%) than in vaccinated dogs (6.99%). There was no significant association observed between CPE with age, sex and vaccination status (P>0.05). It was concluded that CPE is endemic and widespread in Yola metropolis. Therefore, the need for vaccination of dogs and investigation into the potency of vaccines currently used in the study area were recommended.

“…We did not observe significant relationships of sex, age, weight, and month of disease occurrence with CPV infection. Some reports indicate that males are at a higher risk of infection [3,[17][18][19]32], and yet another study reports that females are at a higher risk [17]. In some studies, it was observed that juvenile animals were at a higher risk, possibly due to lower levels of maternal antibody and lack of vaccination [2,3].…”

“…In Bangladesh, no molecular confirmation of the presence of CPV is available, although diagnosis with a rapid detection kit suggests endemic occurrence [17][18][19][20]. Pet practitioners regularly find CPV cases almost year-round and use a standard vaccination strategy for prevention.…”

Background and Aim: Canine parvovirus (CPV) is the most important cause of mortality in dogs in many parts of the world. Clinical cases exhibit characteristic signs, including foul-smelling bloody diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and dehydration. This study assessed field and vaccine variants of parvovirus in the Chattogram metropolitan area, Bangladesh. The investigation also aimed to identify risk factors for this disease. This research is the first to identify the presence of CPV in Bangladesh through molecular examination. Materials and Methods: From October to December 2019, a total of 100 dogs were included in the study. Rectal swabs were taken from all dogs. Twenty dogs showed clinical signs of parvovirus. All clinically affected animals along with 20 randomly selected healthy dogs were tested using amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS)-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to identify variants from the samples. Logistic regression model analysis was performed to determine the possible risk factors for CPV. Results: ARMS-PCR showed the presence of all three variants, CPV2a, CPV2b, and CPV2c, in clinically ill dogs, and vaccines available in the study area showed either CPV2a or CPV2b strain. The CPV2c variants showed a higher incidence than the other variants. All apparently healthy animals tested were molecularly negative. Multivariable logistic regression model (generalized linear mixed model) indicated that exotic breeds were 3.83 times more likely to be infected by CPV than local breeds. Furthermore, dogs reared in semi-intensive and extensive management systems were 3.64 and 3.79 times more likely to be infected, respectively, than those reared in an intensive management system. Conclusion: These findings provide practitioners and pet owners information on the occurrence of different variants and help design effective prevention strategies for CPV infection.

“…The Protoparvovirus genus and Parvoviridae family emerged in the 1970s [ 4 , 5 ]. The virus spreads through the feces of affected dogs having high morbidity (100%), 10% mortality [ 6 ], and up to 90% fatality [ 2 ]. Dogs affected by CPV are usually characterized with fever, anorexia, lethargy, depression, vomiting, mucoid to hemorrhagic diarrhea, and sometimes leukopenia [ 18 ].…”
