Hyperkalaemia secondary to suspected transient hyporeninaemic hypoaldosteronism in a dog (in a dog)

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract A 12‐year‐7‐month‐old, female, entire beagle dog was presented to a referral hospital in England for a 10‐day history of tachypnoea and lethargy. Angiostrongylus vasorum ELISA test was positive, and the patient was started on fenbendazole. One week later, it became lethargic, anorexic, polyuric and polydipsic, and it was diagnosed with an open

Multicenter, Retrospective Determination of the Clinical Utility of Screening Tests in Dogs With Immune‐Mediated Hemolytic Anemia in the United Kingdom and Ireland

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 39, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Potential triggers of immune‐mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) are often identified, but their frequency and the benefit of extensive screening for these to individual dogs is uncertain. Objective To assess the frequency of non‐associative IMHA in dogs undergoing screening in Britain and Ireland and identify where specific tests ...

Neuroangiostrongyliasis Infection Risk Near Preschool Centres in Mallorca, Spain: A Pilot Micro‐Epidemiological Study

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 6, Page 515-522, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neuroangiostrongyliasis, caused by Angiostrongylus cantonensis , is a globally emerging zoonosis, with Spain being the only endemic country in Europe. Human infection occurs through ingestion of gastropods or paratenic hosts carrying third‐stage larvae, often leading to eosinophilic meningoencephalitis.

Unexpected Shifts in Bivalve Function From Filtration to Transmission Risk

Freshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Understanding the complex interactions between filter‐feeding species and zoonotic disease transmission in aquatic environments is crucial for accurately quantifying the ecosystem services provided by these organisms. This study explores for the first time the roles of freshwater bivalves in the transmission dynamics of emerging zoonotic ...

The Innate Immune Sensor Zbp1 Mediates Central Nervous System Inflammation Induced by Angiostrongylus Cantonensis by Promoting Macrophage Inflammatory Phenotypes

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 11, March 20, 2025.
This study reveals that Zbp1 plays a pivotal role in regulating neuroimmune interactions during Angiostrongylus cantonensis (AC) infection. Zbp1 modulates lymphocyte infiltration and natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity by promoting cytokine secretion and M1 polarization of macrophages, shaping the CNS immune microenvironment.

First Reported Outbreak of Abdominal Angiostrongyliasis [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1998
Human abdominal angiostrongyliasis is a potentially fatal disease caused by Angiostrongylus costaricensis, a nematode found in the Americas. During the period of December 1994 through August 1995, an outbreak of this disease occurred in Guatemala. We identified 22 cases of abdominal angiostrongyliasis and conducted a matched case-control study to ...

Angiostrongylus cantonensis Meningo‐Encephalitis in Children—Heightened Awareness Needed During Prolonged Wet Weather Conditions

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 472-481, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Angiostrongylus cantonensis, the leading cause of eosinophilic meningoencephalitis, is well established in eastern Australia. Prolonged wet weather in Queensland during 2021–2022 coincided with anecdotal reports of increased neuroangiostrongyliasis cases, prompting an evaluation of paediatric cases from 2013 to 2022.
