    Acidose Ruminal em Bovinos: revisão de literatura
    (Fundação de Ensino Octávio Bastos, 2023-10-18) VITOR, Ana Caroline Silvério; VERONEZI, Nathália Giovana; TENÓRIO, Alanne
    Ruminal acidosis is characterized by a drop in ruminal pH, resulting from high grain intake, or sudden changes in diet, which lead to changes in the ruminal microbiota. These changes cause the lysis of local bacteria and favor other pathogens such as Streptococcus bovis, which produces lactic acid. Lactic acid is largely responsible for the decrease in rumen pH. The diagnosis is based on clinical findings, such as hyporexia and decreased rumination, and on measuring the rumen pH of affected animals and classified as clinical or subclinical. Treatment is based on its form of diagnosis to alleviate clinical signs, however dietary management and adequacy of carbohydrate levels in the diet are part of the therapeutic and prophylactic methods in both forms. Prevention of this condition is done through prior dietary adaptation and balancing the ingredients in the diet. The objective of this work is to address the main aspects of rumen acidosis in cattle through a literature review.

    Persistência do úraco em potros: revisão bibliográfica
    (Fundação de Ensino Octávio Bastos, 2022-09-09) ALCANTARA, Isadora Novelli de; VERONEZI, Nathália Giovana; PESSINATTI, Bárbara Dezotti
    One of the most common complications in foals is the persistence of urachus, it affects about 6% of newborns and can develop within days or even weeks after birth. This non-regression of the fetal urinary tract, which under normal circumstances is obliterated soon after birth, causes the elimination of urine to take place through the navel. The most common clinical signs are moist and swollen umbilical region and dripping of urine through the navel, sporadically or during urination. Diagnosis is based on inspection, palpation and confirmed by ultrasound examination. Treatment should be initiated using broad-spectrum antibiotics, cleaning and disinfection of the region and, in non-responsive cases, surgical correction.
