Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metabolic Diseases in Farm Animals discusses metabolic diseases in farm livestock, focusing on four clinical syndromes—parturient hypocalcaemia, hypomagnesaemia, ketosis, and bloat. This book discusses metabolic disorders associated with water, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, nitrogen, and phosphorus. The parturient paresis, which causes considerable metabolic stress and disrupts the daily pattern of feeding and digestion of dairy cows is also elaborated. This text covers the changes in mineral metabolism at parturition; factors predisposing dairy cows to parturient paresis; cause of paresis in milk fever; and downer syndrome in dairy cows. The complexity of energy metabolism and its associated disorders are likewise described. This publication is a good source for veterinarians and livestock farmers concerned with metabolic diseases in farm animals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High producing farm animals are permanently challenged by a variety of factors: lack of proper nutrition (deficit/surplus), housing systems, infections and stress. The incidence, course and outcome of production diseases are changing continuously. Therefore new information on prevention, diagnosis and treatment of production diseases is needed. These problems are complicated by the discussion of animal welfare, the rapid changes in agricultural production and the economics of production. The following key topics are handled: Fatty liver in dairy cows Alternatives to growth-promoting antibiotics Chronic inflammation and animal production Animal behavior and welfare in intensive production systems Epidemiology of production diseases New techniques in immunoprophylaxis Nutrition-immunology and production-immunology relationships Phosphorus nutrition: animal health and environmental concerns Application of genomics to production disease Role of specific fatty acids in animal health, reproduction, and performance Trace mineral nutrition and metabolism Subclinical rumen acidosis This book is essential to scientists, veterinarians and others interested in animal production.

Book excerpt: In this issue of Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, guest editor Dr. Robert J. Van Saun brings his considerable expertise to the topic of Ruminant Metabolic Diseases. Top experts provide a comprehensive overview of metabolic diseases and treatments in small and large ruminants caused by deficiencies of certain essential nutrients, resulting in disturbances of an animal's normal metabolic state. Contains 12 practice-oriented topics including inflammation, immunity and transition metabolism; ketosis diagnostics and therapy; beef cattle metabolic diseases; hepatic lipidosis in ruminants; and more. Provides in-depth clinical reviews on ruminant metabolic diseases, offering actionable insights for clinical practice. Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes the results achieved so far by application of various biological systems (including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics) involved in the pathomechanisms and early diagnosis of periparturient diseases as specific biomarkers of disease in cattle. These emerging technologies help to extensively enhance our understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of periparturient diseases of transition dairy cows. The book includes a chapter dedicated to ‘omics’ sciences and one that discusses the myths established in animal and veterinary sciences in recent decades and emerging, new paradigms. The diseases discussed include metritis, mastitis, laminitis, ketosis, rumen acidosis, periparturient immunosuppression, gastrointestinal microbiota and their involvement in disease, infertility, fatty liver, milk fever, and retained placenta. This book is intended for academics, veterinarians, animal nutritionists, researchers, and graduate students working in the field of ‘omics sciences’ with a special interest in dairy cattle health.

Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to give a concise account of the factors affecting the health of livestock under modern conditions of husbandry and describe the most important diseases. Most classic livestock diseases have either been completely eliminated or kept under control with vaccines or drugs but animals tend now to be affected by less obvious but nevertheless serious and often chronic infections which reduce productivity. In addition, farm animals are increasingly afflicted with metabolic disorders, which cause severley adverse effects on production and health due to partial or total collapse of the animals' metabolic processes when "pushed" beyond their normal capabilities. And new virus diseases, borne by wind or vectors, are causing some quite devastating effects for a time, especially in the larger livestock units. Sometimes, these diseases so cripple the enterprise that it never recovers. Much has happened since the first edition was published ten years ago. Some totally new and important diseases have emerged, and the general public has shown much greater interest in farm animal welfare. The new edition which has been extensively rewritten, reflects the new developments and challenges, and sets out in detail suitable techniques for prevention and control
