Reports of Veterinary Ambulatory and Hospital Clinics Departnlent of Veterinary Pathology Department of Veterinary Hygiene Iowa Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory Division of Veterinary Medicine Iowa State College January 1, 1955 to December 31, 1955 The following report from the Iowa Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Lab­ oratory is a compilation of the animal disease material handled by the labor­ atory during the calendar year 1955. In previous years the report has been published in the Veterinary Division catalogue of Iowa State College and was probably seen by only a few of the veterinary practitioners of Iowa. With pub­ lication in the Iowa State College Veterinarian it will be available to very many more practitioners. It is hoped that the report will be of interest and helpful value to many of them. There are several limiting factors to keep in mind in drawing any con­ clusions from the report and it is more indicative of general trends than of relative importance of the various diseases found. It is a direct reflection of the interest in animal disease control and efforts on the part of practitioners to secure as much information of diagnostic value as possible. Excluding the serological tests for Brucellosis with both cattle and swine blood samples, the report covers the service requested in a total of 4,009 cases. Approximately 85 percent of these cases were submitted by veterinary practitioners. Such requests for service have been increasing each year during the past decade. In comparison with reports of previous years the 1955 report shows in­ creased interest in Brucellosis as evidenced by a larger number of tests; a marked increase in the number of animals tested for leptospirosis; many more cases of enterotoxemia in swine; a decrease in the apparent incidence of hog cholera; the first case of scrapie in Iowa sheep - but no cases of bluetongue Iss'lLe 3, 1956 149 recorded; an upswing in the incidence of sahnonellosis in poultry; and the first report of ornithosis in poultry of Iowa. Since it is planned to continue publication of the annual report from the Diagnostic Laboratory in this journal, perhaps it would be informative to keep this issue for comparative purposes in future years.

Standardized nomenclature of animal parasitic diseases (SNOAPAD). Vet. Parasitol, 29: 299- 326. An expert committee, appointed by the Executive Committee of the World Association for the Advancement of Veterinary Parasitology (W.A.A.V.P.), presents its proposal for uniform and proper terminology to denominate animal parasitic diseases or infections. In principle, the disease name is constructed solely by the suffix -osis, which is added to the stem of the name of the parasite taxon, formed from the nominative of the taxa. Standardized nomenclature of animal parasitm diseases (SNOAPAD) is meant as a guideline for general use, to improve the clarity of scientific communication. It should be especially useful in promoting effective usage of computerized data retrieval services. INTRODUCTION Computerized data retrieval systems are of rapidly-growing importance and in the field of parasitology, the need for a uniform and proper terminology for use in these systems is being increasingly recognized.

Pulmonary metastrongylosis, a zoonotic disease found primarily in pigs, is caused by eight different species of the cosmopolitan nematode Metastrongylus genus. To date, only four human cases have been reported, all from Europe. Herein, a severe case of pulmonary infection caused by Metastrongylus salmi in an Ecuadorian man, with successful treatment with ivermectin, is described. INTRODUCTION Hodgkin’s lymphoma (Burkitt’s lymphoma) and received chemotherapy. Having been recently diagnosed with recurrent Metastrongylus species (lungworms) are parasitic nematodes lymphoma because of the thickening of bowel loops shown of the respiratory tract, where both domestic and wild pigs, 1–4 in computed tomography (CT) scan, he was transferred from and pecaris are found with highly prevalent infections. the Shell Hospital, arriving with fever and diarrhea. On hospital Human infections rarely occur, with only four cases to date admission, he was febrile (38.4°C), malnourished, with oral described in the literature. These human cases, reported from herpes, but with no palpable lymphadenopathy.

  • Helminths and Helminthiosis of Pigs in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam with Special Reference to Ascariosis and Fasciolopsis Buski Infection
    JARQ 33, 193-199 (1999) Helminths and Helminthiosis of Pigs in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam with Special Reference to Ascariosis and Fasciolopsis buski Infection Shinobu YOSHIHARA*1, Nguyen Phuoc HUNG*2, Nguyen Huu HUNG*3 and Chau Ba LOC*3 * 1 Animal Production and Grassland Division, Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences (Tsukuba, Ibaraki, 305-8686 Japan) * 2,3 Department of Veterinary Medicine, College of Agriculture, Can Tho University (3/2 street, Campus II, Can Tho, Vietnam) Abstract To demonstrate the infection of pigs with helminths in the Mekong Delta, an investigation into the actual conditions was carried out in the area. A total of 87 pigs from 38 farms were examined for the presence of the helminths. Eggs of common nematodes (Ascaris suum, Metastrongylus spp., Oesophagostomum spp., Trichuris suis and Strongyloides ransomi) present in Japan, were detected. Especially, since the morbidity rate of A. suum infection was very high, the effect of the Ascaris infection on pig growth was investigated. As a result, economic loss was estimated at US$2.0/head. In addition, infection with Fasciolopsis buski, which dose not occur in Japan, was detected in 4 pigs from 4 small farms. These 4 pigs were given water spinach as a supplemental feed. It was suggested that this vegetable played an important role in F. buski infection and that the fluke infection was one of the zoonoses. Infection with this fluke in human can be anticipated, because most of the inhabitants ate this vegetable in the Mekong Delta. Discipline: Animal health Additional key words: Ascaris suum, zoonosis, anthelmintic, economic loss the productivity of pigs and farmers' income, it is Introduction important to prevent the occurrence of various problems relating to feeds and diseases 18>.
