| An epidemiological investigation was conducted on mixed farms in Tororo and Soroti districts of Uganda from January to February 2000 to determine the cause of reported persistent mortality of cattle. Blood and faecal examination of 98 cattle comprised of 33 Friesians, 58 Zebu and 7 Sahiwal was undertaken. Results revealed 7 (7.1%) cattle had trypanosome infection, mainly due to Trypanosoma vivax and T. brucei, 17 (17.3%) had Fasciola infection, 28 (28.6%) had gastrointestinal nematode infection, 33 (33.7%) had Theileria parva infection and 13 (13.3%) had Anaplasma marginale infection. Mixed infections were detected in 24.5%, 30%, 20.6% and 43% of all cattle, Friesians, Zebu and Sahiwal respectively. Anaemia (PCV<25) was detected in 21%, 24%, 19% and 14%... |

Anaemia is a frequent extra-articular manifestation in rheumatoid arthritis, affecting 30-70% of the patients; presenting a negative impact on patient´s quality of life. Some of the drugs used in rheumatoid arthritis treatment improve anaemia; but little is known on the beneficial effects of the anti-rheumatic leflunomide or the anti-TNFα adalimumab, in this parameter. We investigated the incidence of anaemia in rheumatoid arthritis patients treated or not with leflunomide or adalimumab. We also assessed whether anaemia correlates with disease activity. Anaemia was present in patients who had just been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and had never... |
