The relationship between bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infection and thrombocytopenia was studied in 18 veal calves experimentally infected with BVDV. All calves were free of BVDV, and 13 calves were free of serum neutralizing antibodies to BVDV before virus inoculation. Calves were inoculated
Thrombocytopenia has been associated with type II bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infection in immunocompetent cattle, but the mechanism is unknown. The purpose of the present study was to develop and characterize a model of type II BVDV-induced thrombocytopenia. Colostrum-deprived Holstein
Thrombocytopenia was observed in 15 of 146 cases of clinically acute bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infection in adult cattle. Platelet counts ranged from 2,000 to 33,000/microliters. Clinically, a bleeding tendency was manifested by bloody diarrhea, petechial and ecchymotic hemorrhage,
Seven calves between 1 week and 2 months of age were infected with a noncytopathic field isolate of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BDV) in order to evaluate the effect of BDV infection on the concentration of circulating platelets in the blood. All calves were determined to be free of BDV and
Bovine viral diarrhea virus 1 (BVDV-1) subtype b was isolated from premature Holstein calves from a dairy herd that experienced an outbreak of premature births, late-term abortions, brachygnathism, growth retardation, malformations of the brain and cranium, and rare extracranial skeletal
A child with a history of diarrhea presented with transient anemia, reticolucytosis, and red blood cell fragmentation. Blood pressure and levels of blood platelets, creatinine, and urea were normal, as were results of urinalysis. Escherichia coli harboring genes for Shiga toxin were detected in
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are highly effective drugs for patients suffering from peptic ulcer and gastro-esophageal reflux diseases, but recent studies have indicated possible risks with the long-term use of PPIs, such as osteoporosis, fractures, increased risk of pneumonia, diarrhea, iron and
BACKGROUND
Diarrhea-associated hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is characterized by acute kidney injury with microangiopathic hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia with a diarrhea prodrome, typically caused by Shiga-like toxin-producing Escherichia coli. Supportive management is generally
A patient affected with thrombocytopenia and bilateral absence of radius is described. Authors present data suggesting an acquired etiology: intrauterine cytomegalovirus infection and X-ray exposure during the ovulatory period. Patient showed some radiological features not previously described:
The aim of this study was to determine the pathogenicity of an Indian bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) 1b isolate in 7-9-months-old male calves. Infected (four) and control (two) calves were bled at three days interval for hematological, virological and serological studies until day 27. All
Every year in France, about 100 children, most of them less than 3 years old, have typical diarrhea-associated HUS (D + HUS). Evidence of exposure to verotoxin producing E. coli (VTEC), mostly the O157: H7 serotype, is demonstrated in about 85% of cases. A prodromal illness of acute gastroenteritis
Thrombocytopenia is a relatively frequent complication in patients infected by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Most frequent mechanisms of thrombopenia are destruction of half-filled platelets by immunocomplex and defects in production. We present two cases of severe thrombocytopenia associated
