Article Synopsis
  • Camel filariasis causes a range of symptoms in male camels, including fever, lethargy, skin lesions, and reproductive issues, making it important to differentiate between those with only balanoposthitis and those infected with filariasis.
  • The study analyzed 250 male camels across three groups and found significant differences in clinical and laboratory findings, especially in serum testosterone and testicular histopathology, indicating these as key diagnostic tools.
  • Results showed that camels with both balanoposthitis and filariasis had a higher severity of tick infestations and more pronounced clinical symptoms than those with only balanoposthitis, highlighting the complexity of diagnosing these conditions.

Article Synopsis
  • Inhalational anesthesia is important in small animal surgery, and choosing the right drug combination can impact the dog's health.
  • The study tested the effects of combining butorphanol and lidocaine (BUT-LID) and tramadol and lidocaine (TRM-LID) on reducing the necessary dose of sevoflurane in dogs.
  • Results showed that BUT-LID significantly reduced sevoflurane levels needed compared to controls, while TRM-LID had no significant effect, although both combinations were deemed potentially beneficial for anesthesia in dogs.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the effects of epidural administration of romifidine, a romifidine-lidocaine combo, and lidocaine alone on sedative and pain relief in donkeys during surgical procedures.
  • - Twenty-four healthy adult donkeys were randomly assigned to receive one of the treatments or a control (saline) and observed for sedation and pain relief over a period of 210 minutes post-injection.
  • - Results showed that romifidine and romifidine-lidocaine caused moderate sedation, while all treatments provided effective pain relief in specified areas, with romifidine offering the longest duration of sedation.

Background: Problems associated with using inhalational anaesthesia are numerous in veterinary anaesthesia practice. Decreasing the amount of used inhalational anaesthetic agents and minimising of cardiorespiratory disorders are the standard goals of anaesthetists.

Objective: This experimental study was carried out to investigate the sparing effect of intravenous tramadol, lidocaine, dexmedetomidine and their combinations on the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of sevoflurane in healthy Beagle dogs.

The anesthetic and cardiorespiratory effects of xylazine-alfaxalone combination were evaluated in calves. Six calves (age: 6-9 months old; weight: 114-310 kg) were anesthetized with intravenous alfaxalone 15 min after administration of intramuscular saline (0.5 ml/100 kg) or xylazine (0.
