Management of Haws Syndrome in Cats With Gastrointestinal Diet: A Case Series
ABSTRACT Background Haws syndrome (HS) in cats is characterized by bilateral protrusion of the third eyelid and ptosis, often accompanied by gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms such as diarrhea. Emerging evidence suggests disruption of the gut‐brain axis, linked to GI microbiota dysbiosis, may play a role in HS development.

Genetic characterization of isolates of Giardia duodenalis by enzyme electrophoresis: Implications for reproductive biology, population structure, taxonomy, and epidemiology [PDF]
The nature and extent of genetic variation in Giardia was used to infer its mode of reproduction, population structure, taxonomy, and zoonotic potential. Ninety-seven isolates of Giardia duodenalis, from a defined area in Western Australia and throughout

Abstract Background Canine parvovirus (CPV) infection is reportedly associated with chronic enteropathy (CE), but infected puppies are often treated with antibiotics, which may also promote CE. This study aims to compare the presence and severity of CE among dogs that were CPV‐infected, treated with antibiotics or healthy during puppyhood.

First multilocus sequence typing (MLST) of Giardia duodenalis isolates from humans in Romania
Background Giardia duodenalis is one of the most prevalent and highly diverse human parasites, encompassing a complex of eight genetically distinct assemblages, each further divided into sub-assemblages. While in recent years, G.
