Paratuberculosis is a contagious, chronic and sometimes fatal infection that primarily affects the small intestine of ruminants.
It is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis.
Infections normally affect ruminants (mammals that have four compartments of their stomachs, of which the rumen is one),
but have also been seen in a variety of non ruminant species, including rabbits, foxes, and birds. Horses, dogs, and nonhuman primates have been infected experimentally.
Paratuberculosis is found worldwide

Endocarditis, most often from a bacterial infection, inflames the lining of your heart valves and chambers. Treatment includes several weeks of antibiotics or other medicine and sometimes surgery. With quick, aggressive treatment, many people survive. Without treatment,
endocarditis can be fatal.
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a potentially fatal inflammation of your heart valves’ lining and sometimes heart chambers’ lining. This occurs when germs (usually bacteria) from elsewhere in your body enter your bloodstream and attach to and attack the lining of your heart valves and/or chambers. Infective endocarditis is also called bacterial endocarditis (BE) or acute, subacute (SBE) or chronic bacterial endocarditis.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

This slides describes the basic concepts of ICT, basics of Email, Emerging Technology and Digital Initiatives in Education. This presentations aligns with the UGC Paper I syllabus.
2. Definition
acute, infectious, non-contagious, febrile
cattle and sheep
Myositis—upper part of leg
emphysematous swelling
3. Etiology
Clostridium chauvoei
gram positive, spore forming, rod shaped
spores resistant to environmental changes and
disinfectants
persist in soil for years
4. Route of Infection
Ingested spores
pass wall of GI tract/erupting teeth
access to bloodstream
deposited in muscle and other tissues (spleen, liver,
and alimentary tract)
remain dormant indefinitely
5. Occurrence
• Worldwide
• When disease occurs number of animals affected
• Enzootic in particular areas
• Group of farms to individual in field
• case fatality rate 100%
• seasonal—warm months
• Excavation of soil
6. Risk factors
Cattle
infection is endogenous
Lesions without history of
wounds
bruising or excessive exercise
precipitate disease
Most cases in cattle 6–24 m
old
calves as young as 6 wk
cattle as old as 10–12 yr
Sheep
always result of
wound infection
shearing cuts,
docking, crutching, or
castration
Navel wound
Lambing injuries
Fighting injuries
After Vaccination
7. Pathogenesis
Spores by ingestion intestinal mucosa blood circulation
skeletal muscles and remain dormant
Muscular fatigue or trauma to the muscle
Producing anaerobic conditions
Spores activate, proliferate, produce toxins
necrotizing myositis / toxemia
Toxins --- capillary damage, hemorrhagic edema and necrosis
Gas production------gangrene and toxemia .
8. Clinical Findings
Sever lameness
Pronounced swelling of upper part of leg
Depression
Complete anorexia
Ruminal stasis
High temperature and pulse rate
9. Clinical Findings
Early stages --- swelling hot and painful
Later--- cold and painless
Edematous and emphysematous
Crepitation on palpation
Discolored, dry and cracked skin
10. Clinical Findings
Lesions on base of tongue, heart muscles,
diaphragm, brisket, udder
Condition develops rapidly
Death12-36 hrs after appearance of signs
deaths without signs / clostridial cardiac myositis
11. Diagnosis
Clinical signs
No constant changes in hemogram and serum
chemistry
Demonstration of organism
Samples: Muscle in air tight container
Air dried impression smears
PCR
12. Necropsy findings
Lying on the side with the affected hind limb stuck
out stiffly---characteristic position
Bloating and putrefaction occurs quickly
Blood stained froth from nostrils and anus
Incision ---- dark red to black swollen tissue with
rancid odor---gas bubbles
13.
14. Black leg. Dark-red skeletal
muscle of a heifer showing
hemorrhage, necrosis, edema
and emphysema.
: Black leg disease. Heart muscle
showing dark red hemorrhagic and
emphysematous
19. Treatment
Penicillin--- Large doses (40,000IU/kg BW)
Surgical debridement of the lesion including
fasciotomy
Recovery rate is low
Blackleg antiserum
20. Control
Vaccination in enzootic areas
Booster vaccination
Prior to anticipated danger period
21. Control
Maternal immunity --- 3 months
In outbreak ---vaccinate unaffected animals
Penicillin at 10000IU/kg BW IM
Carcasses destroyed by burning or deep burial
