Abstract (English): | Small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) is a group of viruses of the Retroviridae family, shared between caprine, ovine and wild ruminants. It is responsible for a systemic infection that can affect the lungs, central nervous system, mammary gland and joints, causing chronic, insidious, and progressive diseases, seriously affecting animal health. Concurrently, it is associated with a decrease in milk production, leading to malnutrition of lambs and goat kids and to the premature slaughter of adult animals, causing substantial economic losses. This review aims to gather the latest information regarding lentivirus in small ruminants in the clinical practice, their economic importance, and diagnostic and prevention methods. Diagnosis is based on clinical, analytical, and post-mortem findings. The feasibility of imaging diagnosis is also highlighted. Preventive measures and management interventions, including the culling or segregation of positive animals, are effective options to control or even eradicate this disease. SRLV prevention strategies must be applied continuously to progressively eradicate infection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
Abstract (Croatian): | Lentivirus malih preživača (LVMP) je skupina virusa iz obitelji Retroviridae, koji pogađaju koze, ovce i divlje preživače, a odgovorni su za sistemske infekcije, koje mogu utjecati na: pluća, središnji živčani sustav, mliječnu žlijezdu i zglobove. Ova infekcija može prouzročiti kronične, neprimjetne i progresivne bolesti koje utječu na zdravlje životinja. Istovremeno, povezane su sa smanjenjem proizvodnje mlijeka, što dovodi do pothranjenosti janjadi i kozlića, kao i preranog klanja odraslih životinja, prouzročeći znatne ekonomske gubitke. Ovaj je pregledni članak imao za cilj prikupiti najnovije informacije u svezi lentivirusa u malih preživača u kliničkoj praksi, njihove ekonomske važnosti i metoda dijagnoze i prevencije. Dijagnoza se temelji na kliničkim, analitičkim i obdukcijskim nalazima; naglašena je i mogućnost dijagnoze oslikavanjem. Preventivne mjere i intervencije za upravljanje, uključujući usmrćivanje ili segregaciju pozitivnih životinja, najučinkovitiji je izbor za kontrolu pa čak i nestanak ove bolesti. Strategije prevencije LVMP potrebno je stalno primjenjivati za progresivno nestajanje infekcije. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
