Different Types of Co-Infection by Contagious Ecthyma Virus, Enteropathogenic , , Ecto- and Endo-Parasites in Four Young Alpine Ibex ().

Animals (Basel)

December 2024

Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale del Piemonte, Liguria e Valle d'Aosta, Regione Amerique 7G, 11020 Quart, AO, Italy.

The research aimed to investigate the perinatal pathology of Alpine ibex () through the study of four young subjects (at the age of 3 to 4 months) found dead in Valle d'Aosta, a region of northwestern Italy. The carcasses were submitted to necropsy followed by an examination of ecto- and endoparasites (ECP and ENP); samples from the gross lesions (in summary, cutaneous papilloma and crusts, ocular discharge, lobular haemorrhagic areas in the lungs, catarrhal-haemorrhagic enterocolitis) were analysed by bacteriological, histopathological, and biomolecular methods to define the etiological agent. The subjects, with various co-infection patterns, were affected by contagious ecthyma virus (ORFV) (agent of a highly diffusive pustular dermatitis transmissible to small ruminants and humans), Enteropathogenic (EPEC) (major etiological agent of infantile diarrhoea especially in developing countries), (MC) (cause of an ocular infection common to goats and sheep), various ECP (ticks and keds) and ENP (lung and intestinal nematodes, and coccidia).

  • Congenital cytomegalovirus can lead to serious issues like hearing loss and neurodevelopmental delays, with skin signs such as petechiae, while congenital syphilis shows up as copper-red lesions on the hands and feet that crust over time.
  • Some rashes, like erythema toxicum neonatorum, are normal and temporary, while conditions like neonatal and infantile acne can differ, with milia being present at birth; transient changes like cutis marmor

Pustular psoriasis: A distinct aetiopathogenic and clinical entity.

Indian J Dermatol Venereol Leprol

January 2024

Department of Dermatology, Armed Forces Medical College (AFMC), Wanowarie, Pune, India.

Pustular psoriasis is a distinct subset of psoriasis that presents with involvement of the skin in the form of sterile pustules along with systemic manifestations. Though it has been conventionally grouped under the umbrella of psoriasis, recent research has shed light on its pathogenetic mechanisms associated with the IL-36 pathway, which is distinct from conventional psoriasis. Pustular psoriasis in itself is a heterogeneous entity consisting of various subtypes, including generalised, localised, acute, and chronic forms.

Article Synopsis
  • - Eosinophilic pustular folliculitis (EPF) is a rare and chronic skin condition characterized by itchy, non-infectious pustules.
  • - The study reports a case of a 7-year-old child with infantile EPF (I-EPF) who was successfully treated with oral azithromycin and topical narrow band UVB light, resulting in no recurrence.
  • - This successful treatment approach may offer valuable insights for managing EPF in other pediatric patients.
