    Abstract: Reproductive and production disorders (PD) of cross-bred dairy cattle significantly reduce their productivity which is of great concern of dairy producers worldwide because most reproductive disorders adversely affect the future fertility. The present study was conducted to determine the incidence of some reproductive diseases (RD) like abortion, anoestrus, metritis, repeat breeder, retained placenta and one production disease like clinical mastitis in cross-bred dairy cattle in Shahjadpur upazila of Sirajgonj district in Bangladesh. Two hundred fifty (250) farms having at least two cross-bred dairy cattle were randomly selected for this study using an active surveillance system. The study was conducted over a period of twelve months from March 2012 to February 2013. Epidemiological data and samples from diseased cattle were collected and analyzed. The recorded reproductive disorders were diagnosed and treated by the veterinarians on the basis of history, physical examination, clinical and laboratory findings. The incidence rate, cumulative incidence and seasonal incidence of reproductive (RD) and production (PD) disorders were measured. The overall incidence rate and cumulative incidence of RDs and PDs were 33/tcm (10000 cattle-months at risk) and 3.9% respectively. The incidence rate and cumulative incidence of repeat breeder were highest as 11/tcm and 1.29% respectively followed by anoestrus (7/tcm and 0.81%), metritis (3/tcm and 0.34%), retained placenta (2/tcm and 0.27%) and abortion (2/tcm and 0.20%). The incidence rate and cumulative incidence of clinical mastitis were 8/tcm and 1.0% respectively. A decreasing trend of cumulative incidence of mastitis, metritis and abortion was noted from summer, rainy to winter seasons. The cumulative incidence of anoestrus was highest in rainy (0.34%) then summer (0.27%) and lowest in winter (0.21%). The proportionate incidence was highest for repeat breeder (32.76%) followed by mastitis (25.86%) and anoestrus (20.69%). The incidence of the diseases we reported were low in comparison to the published prevalence of these diseases. When the incidence of a disease is low but animals affected have the condition for a long period of time, the prevalence will be high relative to the incidence. Repeat breeder, anoestrus and mastitis should get top priority in reproductive disease research to gain more knowledge and in extension to control them in Bangladesh context.

    Abstract: Dhaka Zoo with 2000 animal heads of 184 species from significant genetic diversity and five million visitors influx round the year is placing it a public health important spot. This study was conducted to investigate cryptococcosis in animals at Dhaka Zoo to ascertain animal health, welfare and public health safety standard. One hundred and two opportunistic tissue samples were collected and preserved in 10% neutral buffered formalin at necropsy for 36 animals of 25 different species from Dhaka Zoo during the study period. Twenty five among the study animals were found suffering from granulomatous diseases, of them nine cases were identified cryptococcosis first ever in Bangladesh. Clinical history, nodular lesions on necropsy findings, granulomatous reactions with fungal spores & both Langhangs & foreign body giant cells on histopathology and characteristic spores with wide gelatinous band around endospores on special staining revealed cryptococcosis in eight rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) and one greater kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros). Present study provides evidence of existing cryptococcosis and similar long standing zoonotic diseases in majority of rest of the animals with health risk that shades health safety standard at Dhaka zoo.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/pa.v24i1-2.19114 Progress.

    Abstract: Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) is a highly contagious acute viral disease of domestic and wild ruminants particularly goats and sheep, which causes severe economic losses. Since 1993 PPR has been endemic in goats in Bangladesh. The present study was a seroprevalence study of PPR antibodies in goats and cattle at St. Martin's Island in Bangladesh from July 2012 to June 2013. There was no previous history of Rinderpest or PPR outbreak, and no Rinderpest vaccination. Blood samples were collected from 192 goats and 132 cattle randomly. All animals were apparently healthy, and were not vaccinated against Rinderpest or PPR. Serum antibody titre (competition percentage; CP value) was determined by a commercially available c-ELISA kit. The overall seroprevalence of PPR in goats was 37.5%. No serum samples from cattle were positive. In view of the high risk of PPR, a control strategy is proposed.Bangl. vet. 2014.

    Abstract: The study was conducted to develop a cytology based diagnostic tool for the diagnosis of avian Mycoplasma and E. coli infections at post mortem in the field condition. A total of 38 culture and PCR confirmed Mycoplasma, E. coli or mixed infected samples were used for this study. Lung impression smears were prepared on glass slide from the samples at post mortem examination. Inflammatory cells were counted on microscope after Giemsa staining. Cell counts were analyzed with Bonferroni joint confidence interval and Mann-Whitney U test. The average cell percentages in healthy cases were 73.54- 81.66%, 9.63-13.37% and 7.42-14.38% for lymphocyte, heterophil, and macrophage, respectively. In case of Mycoplasma infection, average percentages of lymphocyte, heterophil and macrophages were 82.01-88.10%, 5.6 to 8.16% and 4.52 9.68%, respectively. In E. coli infection, average percentage of lymphocyte, heterophil and macrophages were found as 64.44-70.76%, 19.73-23.47% and 8.9- 12.7%, respectively. In mixed infection, lymphocyte, heterophil and macrophage were found as 76.08-80.50%, 13.47 17.63% and 4.56 7.66%, respectively. Statistical analyses revealed that in Mycoplasma infection number of lymphocyte and in E. coli infection number of heterophil increased significantly (p 〈 0.01). In MC complex, number of heterophil increased and macrophages decreased significantly (p 〈 0.01). These findings could help identification of Mycoplasma, E. coli or Mycoplasma- E. coli complex at post mortem examination in the field condition.

    Abstract: A cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the prevalence of bovine cryptosporidiosis using 110 fecal samples of crossbred diarrhoeic calves from two different areas (Muktagacha, Mymensingh and Shajadpur, Sirajgonj) in Bangladesh during April 2012 to September 2014. The fecal samples were screened by rapid detection kit and confirmed by Modified Ziehl- Neelsen staining, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The positive samples along with standard positive control yielded 1325bp band on PCR. The overall prevalence of cryptosporidiosis in crossbred calves was 28.18% (31/110) by rapid detection kit. The higher prevalence of cryptosporidiosis was found in the calves from Shajadpur (29.76%) than the calves from Muktagacha (23.08%).The prevalence of cryptosporidiosis was significantly (p 〈 0.001) higher in calves between 1-2 months (70%) age group than less than one month age group (24.49%). Cryptosporidiosis was not observed in calves over two months age. The prevalence of cryptosporidiosis was higher in males (34.75%) than females (24.64%) although not significant statistically. It is evident that the prevalence of cryptosporidiosis in bovine in these areas is under diagnosed and the clinical status of infection is potentially high.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjvm.v12i2.21288 Bangl.

    Abstract: C-reactive protein (CRP) is a sensitive marker of inflammation, and elevated levels have been associated with future risk of myocardial infarction (MI). Even elevated CRP in healthy men and women can predict the future coronary events. This cross-sectional analytical study was undertaken to observe association between high hsCRP level with chronic ischaemic heart disease and was conducted in the Department of Biochemistry, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka from July 2010 to June 2011. A total 50 cases were selected purposively according to the selection criteria form the patients admitted in the Department of Cardiology, Dhaka Medical College Hospital with chronic ischaemic heart disease (IHD). Diagnosed IHD patients were taken as cases; age- and sex-matched 50 healthy subjects were taken as controls. Serum hsCRP and serum TC, TAG, LDL-C and HDL-C were measured in all study subjects. The mean serum hsCRP concentration in cases and controls were 11.22±7.64 mg/dl and 1.72±0.98 mg/dl respectively. Serum hsCRP, Total Cholesterol, TAG and LDL-C were significantly higher in cases than control subjects. Serum HDL-C was significantly lower in cases than control subjects. The present study reveals that the patients of chronic ischemic heart disease have been found to have close association of increased level of hsCRP.

This study was conducted to investigate coccidioidomycosis in captive animals at Dhaka Zoo. One hundred and two tissue samples were collected and preserved in 10% neutral buffered formalin at necropsy of 36 animals of 25 species. Twenty five animals were suffering from granulomatous diseases, of which ten were identified as coccidioidomycosis. Clinical history, nodular lesions at necropsy, granulomatous lesions on histopathology and characteristic spores on special staining confirmed coccidioidomycosis in six rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta), one horse (Equus caballus), one common langur (Presbytis entellus), one beisa oryx (Oryx beisa beisa) and one reticulated python (Python molurus). It is suggested that coccidioidomycosis in captive animals threatens human and animal health. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bvet.v30i2.18255 Bangl. vet. 2013. Vol. 30, No. 2, 54-61

    Abstract: Bangladesh first experienced outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) subtype H5N1 in poultry 2007 and by December 2012 a total of five hundred fifty six (556) outbreaks have been reported of which four hundred ninety nine (499) outbreaks occur in commercial poultry farm as against only fifty seven (57) in backyard poultry chicken. The virus appeared to be a deadly pathogen causing a total of six hundred eight (608) human cases with three hundred fifty nine (359) deaths in the world. In Bangladesh seven (7) human cases have been reported with a singular mortality of a child acquiring the infection from household poultry. There had been six epidemic waves of AI outbreaks in Bangladesh since March 2007 and other new waves seem to have started. From the six years incidence analysis it was found that higher number of outbreaks occurred in the month of February followed by March. The outbreak started from the middle to late winter and continued up to summer. The phylogenetic analysis of viruses isolated till 2010 revealed only one clade 2.2 virus circulating in Bangladesh. But from 2011 two new clades 2.3.2 and 2.3.4 viruses have been introduced. In 2012, it was observed that Clade 2.2 viruses that was in circulation since 2007 were replaced by 2.3.2.1 viruses. Extensive backyard poultry including a large number of ducks, dense human population, and economic dependence of poor people on poultry with low awareness about risk of infection, live bird trading and poor bio-security were critical factors in the spread of avian influenza infection that posses key challenge in rapid containment. Because of the complex situation in poultry production and marketing system, attempts to control this disease through stamping out and bio-security measures have apparently failed in Bangladesh.Bangladesh J. of Livestock Res. 19(1-2): 44-49, Jan-Dec 2012
