What is Lumpy Skin Disease that killed 35,000 cattle in 9 Indian states?

diseases No Comments »

Some 35,000 cattle have died due to lumpy skin disease in nine Indian states as on August 23, 2022. Rajasthan and Gujarat reported the maximum number of cases, according to the department of animal husbandry. Around 900,000 cattle have been infected across the country, stated official reports. India has the world’s highest number of cattle (303 million) and the new virus poses a considerable threat, especially to stray cattle in the country. So, What is Lumpy skin disease or LSD?
Lumpy skin disease is a viral illness. It is caused by a lumpy skin disease virus of the capripoxvirus genus. LSD appears as nodules of 2-5 cm diameters all over the body, particularly around the head, neck, limbs, udder and genitals. The lump gradually becomes big deep wounds.
The virus mainly spreads through blood-sucking vectors, like houseflies, ticks, and mosquitoes during the monsoon months. LSD poses a greater threat to stray cattle as their movements are unrestricted and difficult to isolate, they added. The disease has spread to Rajasthan, Gujarat, Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Jammu. In India, the LSD mortality rate is 2-3 per cent of the infected cattle. Mortality is also noted to be the highest among stray cattle as they are weaker and generally have low immunity.
Historically, LSD was confined to Africa and was first reported in 1929. But in recent years, the disease has spread in territories beyond the endemic areas in recent years. The disease reached China and India in August 2019 and by the end of 2020, it had spread to seven countries. Currently, 5 million healthy animals in these nine states have been vaccinated with the goat pox vaccine to prevent the spread of the disease. Goat pox vaccine is tried and tested in the country as the virus is antigenically similar to sheep and goat pox. Officials are targeting to vaccinate 900,000-1 million animals in the coming days.

Glycogen storage disease type I - an Osmosis Preview

Watch the full video, for free, here! https://osms.it/glycogen_storage_disease_type_I

What is glycogen storage disease type I? Glycogen storage disease type I, also called Von-Gierke’s disease, is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the glucose 6 phosphatase gene on chromosome 17. The end result is that glycogen can’t be broken down into glucose in liver cells, so glucose metabolism goes awry, resulting in symptoms like low blood sugar, weakness and poor growth.

Malaria Infected Mosquitoes Express Enhanced Attraction to Human Odor
http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0063602
“There is much evidence that some pathogens manipulate the behaviour of their mosquito hosts to enhance pathogen transmission. However, it is unknown whether this phenomenon exists in the interaction of Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto with the malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum – one of the most important interactions in the context of humanity, with malaria causing over 200 million human cases and over 770 thousand deaths each year.”

Why vector mosquitoes don’t get affected by the viruses/plasmodium they transmit?
https://www.researchgate.net/post/Why_vector_mosquitoes_dont_get_affected_by_the_viruses_plasmodium_they_transmit
“In most cases of biological/obligatory transmission, there is a mutualistic or a symbiotic relationship of some kind between insect vectors and transmitted pathogens, which usually indicates a long evolutionary relationship. In a few cases however, the pathogen affects the vector negatively but not in a very serious way since in many cases the vector is the only way for pathogen transmission in nature.”

Is there a disease that makes us love cats? – Jaap de Roode

diseases No Comments »

Is your cat amazing … or is there a parasite in your brain that exercises mind control? Get the facts on toxoplasmosis.

Today, about a third of the world’s population is infected with a strange disease called toxoplasmosis — and most of them never even know it. And while the parasite can multiply in practically any host, it can only reproduce sexually in the intestines of cats. Could this disease be the reason so many people love cats and keep them as pets? Jaap de Roode shares what we know about toxoplasmosis.

Cat Scratch Disease | Causes, Symptoms and Treatment

Lesson on Cat Scratch Disease: Causes, Symptoms and Treatment. Cat Scratch Disease (Cat Scratch Fever) is caused by an infection with Bartonella henselae (causing Bartonellosis), which is transmitted from a cat to a human through a scratch or a bite. Common symptoms include a papular skin lesion, regional lymphadenopathy and fever, although the disease can become disseminated and cause other severe symptoms. Diagnosis is performed through serology, PCR or lymph node biopsy methods. Treatment depends on the severity of the disease.

Smoking Causes Cancer, Heart Disease, Emphysema

diseases No Comments »

http://www.nucleushealth.com/ – This 3D medical animation created by Nucleus Medical Media shows the health risks of smoking tobacco.

ID#: ANH12071

Transcript:
Every time you smoke a cigarette, toxic gases pass into your lungs, then into your bloodstream, where they spread to every organ in your body. A cigarette is made using the tobacco leaf, which contains nicotine and a variety of other compounds. As the tobacco and compounds burn, they release thousands of dangerous chemicals, including over forty known to cause cancer. Cigarette smoke contains the poisonous gases carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide, as well as trace amounts of cancer-causing radioactive particles. All forms of tobacco are dangerous, including cigars, pipes, and smokeless tobacco, such as chewing tobacco and snuff.

Nicotine is an addictive chemical in tobacco. Smoking causes death. People who smoke typically die at an earlier age than non-smokers. In fact, 1 of every 5 deaths in the United States is linked to cigarette smoking.

If you smoke, your risk for major health problems increases dramatically, including: heart disease, heart attack, stroke, lung cancer, and death from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Smoking causes cardiovascular disease.

When nicotine flows through your adrenal glands, it stimulates the release of epinephrine, a hormone that raises your blood pressure. In addition, nicotine and carbon monoxide can damage the lining of the inner walls in your arteries. Fatty deposits, called plaque, can build up at these injury sites and become large enough to narrow the arteries and severely reduce blood flow, resulting in a condition called atherosclerosis. In coronary artery disease, atherosclerosis narrows the arteries that supply the heart, which reduces the supply of oxygen to your heart muscle, increasing your risk for a heart attack. Smoking also raises your risk for blood clots because it causes platelets in your blood to clump together. Smoking increases your risk for peripheral vascular disease, in which atherosclerotic plaques block the large arteries in your arms and legs. Smoking can also cause an abdominal aortic aneurysm, which is a swelling or weakening of your aorta where it runs through your abdomen.

Smoking damages two main parts of your lungs: your airways, also called bronchial tubes, and small air sacs called alveoli. Cigarette smoke irritates the lining of your bronchial tubes, causing them to swell and make mucus. Cigarette smoke also slows the movement of your cilia, causing some of the smoke and mucus to stay in your lungs. While you are sleeping, some of the cilia recover and start pushing more pollutants and mucus out of your lungs. When you wake up, your body attempts to expel this material by coughing repeatedly, a condition known as smoker’s cough. Over time, chronic bronchitis develops as your cilia stop working, your airways become clogged with scars and mucus, and breathing becomes difficult.

Your lungs are now more vulnerable to further disease. Cigarette smoke also damages your alveoli, making it harder for oxygen and carbon dioxide to exchange with your blood. Over time, so little oxygen can reach your blood that you may develop emphysema, a condition in which you must gasp for every breath and wear an oxygen tube under your nose in order to breathe.

Chronic bronchitis and emphysema are collectively called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD. COPD is a gradual loss of the ability to breathe for which there is no cure.

Cigarette smoke contains at least 40 cancer-causing substances, called carcinogens, including cyanide, formaldehyde, benzene, and ammonia. In your body, healthy cells grow, make new cells, then die. Genetic material inside each cell, called DNA, directs this process. If you smoke, toxic chemicals can damage the DNA in your healthy cells. As a result, your damaged cells create new unhealthy cells, which grow out of control and may spread to other parts of your body. Cigarettes can cause cancer in other parts of your body, such as: in the blood and bone marrow, mouth, larynx, throat, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, kidney, bladder, uterus, and cervix.

Smoking can cause infertility in both men and women. If a woman is pregnant and smokes during pregnancy, she exposes her baby to the cigarette’s poisonous chemicals, causing a greater risk of: low birth weight, miscarriage, preterm delivery, stillbirth, infant death, and sudden infant death syndrome. Smoking is also dangerous if a mother is breastfeeding. Nicotine passes to the baby through breast milk, and can cause restlessness, rapid heartbeat, vomiting, interrupted sleep, or diarrhea.

Other health effects of smoking include: low bone density and increased risk for hip fracture among women; gum disease, often leading to tooth loss and surgery; immune system dysfunction and delayed wound healing; and sexual impotence in men.

Smoking can cause lung cancer, but there are other types of cancer related to smoking traditional cigarettes.

Michael Hernandez, Critical Care & Pulmonary Medicine Physician at South Miami Hospital, says there are others cancers associated with tobacco, like head, neck, mouth and esophageal cancer.

Smoking is bad for your health and you should avoid it, because it also causes coronary diseases.
