Background: PAPP is widely used in Australia as a potent vertebrate bait, with potential for off-target ingestion and poisoning in domestic dogs. Whilst toxicosis and resulting methaemoglobinaemia is anecdotally known to occur, this is the first description in the literature. This study reports thirteen clinical cases of suspected Para-aminopropiophenone (PAPP) toxicity in dogs, with the aim of describing clinical presentation and current management of toxicosis in this species.

Objective: To evaluate avian patients presented to a wildlife rehabilitation facility with confirmed lead toxicity for clinical signs associated with blood lead level groups, efficacy of subcutaneous chelation therapy with calcium disodium EDTA, and case outcome based on presenting blood lead levels.
Methods: A retrospective record review of 95 avian cases representing 19 species treated for lead toxicosis from a wildlife rehabilitation center in Wisconsin between 2014 and 2023 was conducted. Data were evaluated for presenting complaints, clinical signs, radiographic findings, chelation therapy protocol, clinical pathology data, and case outcome.

However, patients might still be ataxic, unable to walk, or remain heavily sedated at the time of discharge.

Article Synopsis
- In a recent study covering cases from 2014 to 2023, sodium toxicosis in chickens was linked to serious health issues and significant losses in the poultry industry, with a detailed analysis conducted on 7 affected cases.
- The autopsy findings revealed common lesions including fluid accumulation in various organs, respiratory and kidney issues, and significant differences in sodium levels in the brains of affected versus healthy chickens.
- Feed samples from sodium toxicosis cases showed sodium levels far exceeding the safe limit of 2,000 ppm, ranging from 2,500 to 12,000 ppm, indicating a possible cause for the toxicity observed in affected chickens.
