Surra caused by () is widely distributed and has significant impact on equine sector and international trades. However, there are no available data about the genetic characterization of this parasite in horses in Egypt. So, the goal of this study was to study the molecular characterization of in horses and determine the changes in hematological parameters and oxidative stress associated with infection.

Stress leukogram includes eosinopenia as one of its main markers (neutrophilia, eosinopenia, lymphopenia, and mild monocytosis). Cortisol is the main stress biomarker, which is also strongly correlated with the severity of gastrointestinal diseases. This study aimed to determine the relationship between salivary cortisol and the eosinophil cell count (EC) in equids with abdominal pain.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-COV-2) is one of the biggest unsolved global problems of the 21st century for which there has been no definitive cure yet. Like other respiratory viruses, SARS-COV-2 triggers the host immunity dramatically, causing dysfunction in the immune system, both innate and adaptive, which is a common feature of COVID-19 patients. Evidence shows that in the early stages of COVID-19, the immune system is suppressed while it is overactive in severe patients characterized by excessive and prolonged inflammatory responses called "Cytokine Storm".

Purpose: To evaluate the level of eosinophil count in Covid-19 pregnant patients as a cost-effective tool for aiding in diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and prognosis and, to assess whether eosinopenia could be similar or superior to lymphopenia in pregnancy with Covid-19.
Methods: Retrospective case-control study was conducted including pregnant women tested simultaneously for SARS-CoV-2 by RT-PCR and complete blood count (CBC). Eosinophil counts (EOS), lymphocytes (LYM), neutrophils (NEU) with calculation of EOS/LYM ratio, EOS/NEU ratio, NEU/LYM ratio, LYM/NEU ratio (LNR), eosinopenia, and lymphopenia were compared between the groups.
