Article Synopsis
- - Military tuberculosis (MT) is a severe and potentially life-threatening form of tuberculosis characterized by widespread infection throughout the body caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis entering the bloodstream or lymphatics.
- - Diagnosing MT is challenging because it often presents with vague symptoms and physical examination findings that can confuse even experienced doctors, while bacteriological evidence is frequently absent.
- - The prognosis for MT depends heavily on how early the disease is diagnosed and treated, emphasizing the importance of prompt medical intervention, especially in vulnerable populations like children, young adults, and those with HIV.

Occurrence of bacteremia, bacteriuria and bacteriuria-related bacteremia in dogs and cats with chronic kidney disease. A pilot study.
Res Vet Sci

Department of Veterinary Medicine, University of Bari, Valenzano, Italy. Electronic address:
In human medicine, major infections are the most significant and critical non-cardiovascular complications in patients affected by chronic kidney disease (CKD), with bacteriuria being the primary source of bloodstream infections and its evolution toward sepsis. The availability of data on prevalence of bacteremia and its association with bacteriuria in dogs and cats with CKD is limited. The aim of this observational cross-sectional study was to determine the occurrence of bacteremia, bacteriuria, and bacteriuria-related bacteremia in dogs and cats affected by CKD.
