Experimental Ehrlichia canis infection changes acute-phase proteins [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2012
Early diagnosis of canine ehrlichiosis favors prompt institution of treatment and improves the prognosis for the animal, since this disease causes mortality among dogs. Studies have shown that determining the concentration of acute-phase proteins (APPs) may contribute towards early detection of disease and aid in predicting the prognosis.

Failure to demonstrate Babesia, Anaplasma or Ehrlichia in thrombocytopenic dogs from St Kitts

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2009
Background: Thrombocytopenia is common in dogs on St Kitts but there is no data on the possible etiological role played by infections with Anaplasma, Babesia and Ehrlichia, other than E. canis, which are known to occur in the Caribbean.

Recognition of Transfusion With Microcytic Packed Red Blood Cells on ADVIA 2120i RBC V/HC Cytograms: A Case Report

open access: yesVeterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 3‐year‐old, intact female Havanese dog was presented for treatment of a relapse of suspected immune‐mediated anemia and thrombocytopenia. Over the course of treatment, the patient's anemia appeared to acutely transition from macrocytic and hypochromic to microcytic and hypochromic between days five and six of hospitalization.
