(Sher-e-Bangia Agricultural University Research System (SAURES), 2021-07) Nazmunnahar, N.; Hossain, M.M.; Islam, M. R.
The objective of this study was to investigate the nutritional statu, of livestock and correlate it with the prevalence of gastroirucstinal parasites (GP) at Mirzapurupnzila in Tangail district. A total 150 questionnaires were prepared to assess the nutritional status of livestock in this study. Total 170 beef caulc. 63 dairy cow. II Goal/sheep and 23 chicken history and fecal samples were collected and evaluated, About 160'0 animals were reared in traditional rearing system and 24,}. animals were reared in intensive rearing system. Among the population 12% caule, 10% dairy cow. 8% goat/sheep and 6% chicken where found diseased condition. Only 18% cattle. 22% dairy cow. 14% goat/sheep & 10% chicken were vaccinated. 50% cattle. 50% dairy cow. 14% goat/sheep were de-wormed routinely. Dairy cow was supplied the highest amount of green grass (9.7 kg/day), Only 76% fanners followed the method of processing nee straw to feed their animals. Overall prevalence of GP infestation was 76%. Prevalence of Paramphistomum spp. infestation was found to be the highest (24%) followed by Fasciola spp, 16%. Trichostrongylus spp. 4~o. Eimeria spp. I 4%. Isospora spp. R%. Trichuris spp. 4·'0. Strongyloides spp, 6° o. The findings of this study provide an epidemiological forecast showing the prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in cattle. which can be helpful for the clinician in the diagnosis of such infections. The study revealed that nutritional status. health conditions and gastrointestinal parasites result variations in the productivity of animals.

(Sher-e-Bangia Agricultural University Research System (SAURES), 2022-01) Hossain, M. M.; Islam, M.; Nazmunnahar, N.; Islam, M. R.; Rahman, A.N.M.I.
This study aimed to determine the prevalence of most common clinical cases of dog, cat and rabbit reported at MM Hossain’s Pet Clinic, Dhaka, Bangladesh. One thousand and two hundred (n=1200) clinical cases were recorded during the period from March 2020 to July 2022. Among them, dog, cat, and rabbit covered 21%, 65.5% and 12.5% cases, respectively. Parasitic disease was the highest prevalent case (25%) in dogs followed by gastritis (11.51%), wound (10.71%), dermatitis (7.54%), conjunctivitis (6.75%), and kennel cough (5.16%) (p<0.001). Likewise, parasitic disease followed by wound, viral disease, and diarrhea were the more prevalent clinical cases in cats (23.31%, 18.05%, 6.77%, and 5.64%, respectively) (p<0.001). In case of rabbit, traumatic injuries and fracture was the highest reported case (16.67%) followed by parasitic infestation, diarrhea, and dermatitis (13.33%, 13.33%, and 12.00%, respectively) (p<0.001). Clinical cases were more prevalent in male dogs than female dogs (56.75% vs 43.25%) (p<0.05), and dogs more than 6 months of age had more reported clinical cases compared to 1-6 months of aged dogs (65.08% vs 34.92%) (p<0.05). Local breed of cats showed higher prevalence of clinical cases than that of cross breed (66.54% vs 33.46%), male cats had higher prevalence compared to female cats (59.40% vs 40.60%), and cats at the age of 1-6 months represented higher prevalence than those more than 6 months of age (62.16% vs 37.84%) (p<0.05). Male rabbits represented as higher reported clinical cases than female rabbits (72.67% vs 27.33%) (p<0.05). Overall, Parasitic infection/infestation was the prominent reported clinical cases in pet dogs, cats, and rabbits. Proper prevention and therapeutic management should be carrying out to reduce the prevalence of parasitic diseases of pets.
