Epidemiological Aspects and Clinicopathological Findings in Cats Naturally Infected with Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) and/or Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV)
Infections produced by feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline leukemia virus (FeLV), two of the most prevalent pathogens in cats, range from passing unnoticed to presenting a wide variety of clinical signs. Different epidemiological, clinical, hematological and virological parameters were analyzed in 78 FIVand/or FeLV-infected cats. FeLV-infected (FeLV) cats were considerably younger th...
متن کاملFeline leukemia virus and feline immunodeficiency virus.
Ophthalmic manifestations of FeLV or FIV infection can occur in all ocular tissues and may be manifestations of direct viral effects or secondary to viral-related malignant transformation. Additionally, the manifestations of common feline ophthalmic pathogens may be more severe and poorly responsive to therapy because of the immunosuppressive effects of FeLV or FIV infection. Prompt diagnosis o...
متن کاملFeline leukemia virus & feline immunodeficiency virus.
RISK OF INFECTION/EXPOSURE The risk of infection is higher in younger animals and cats that are in contact with multiple cats (strays). Generally, Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) is spread by casual contact between cats although as they age, resistance to infection develops. Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) is spread more commonly through bite wounds or through sexual behaviour. Exposure occurs...
متن کاملClinical findings and survival in cats naturally infected with feline immunodeficiency virus.
BACKGROUND The clinical course and outcome of natural feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) infection are variable and incompletely understood. Assigning clinical relevance to FIV infection in individual cats represents a considerable clinical challenge. OBJECTIVE To compare signalment, hematologic and biochemical data, major clinical problem, and survival among client-owned, FIV-infected, and ...
متن کاملSeroprevalence of feline leukemia virus and feline immunodeficiency virus infection among cats in Canada.
The purposes of this study were to determine the seroprevalence of feline leukemia virus (FeLV) and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) infection among cats in Canada and to identify risk factors for seropositivity. Signalment, lifestyle factors, and test results for FeLV antigen and FIV antibody were analyzed for 11 144 cats from the 10 Canadian provinces. Seroprevalence for FIV antibody was 4...
