Q

dictyocaulus viviparus lifecycle

A

no eggs!
lung worm

adult produce live L1, in poop- pilobolus fungi launch L3 to new areas
eaten by host- migrate to lungs-coughed and swallowed back into gut and make babies

Q

how does anemia lead to edema

A

loss of proteins cause fluid to accumulate outside of vessels

21
Q

Haemonchus cause

A

bottle jaw
anemia
weakness
edema
NO DIARRHEA

baberpole worm

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

22
Q

what trichostrongyle does not cause diarrhea

A

Haemonchus- barberpole worm- anemia and bottle jaw

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

23
Q
A

Haemonchus- barberpole worm- blood feeding- anemia, hypoproteinemia and bottle jaw

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

24
Q

hosts for haemonchus

A

sheep and goats and ruminants

Haemonchus- barberpole-blood feeding- anemia, low protein and bottle jaw

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

25
Q

how to treat haemochus

A

famachia grading- drugs- but lead to resistance
no vaccine
rotational grazing
cull

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

26
Q

famacha scoring is for

A

Haemonchus infection
3-5 treat

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

27
Q
A

this shows there are only a small amount of animals with a very high amount of worms.

if you cull these animals you can decrease the overall amount of worms produced

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

28
Q

refugia

A

only treat some of the herd, that way the next wave of parasites is still suseptible to medications

29
Q

ostertagis cause

A

profuse watery diarrhea
anorexia
dehydration
weight loss
bottle jaw
anemia

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

30
Q

what does haemonchus look like

A

barberpole
large bursa- male
spike- blood feeders- female

Haemonchus- barberpole-blood feeding- anemia, low protein and bottle jaw

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

31
Q

what does ostertagia look like

A

threadlike
large bursa- male

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

32
Q

ostertagia infect

A

cattle

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

33
Q

where do ostertagia L3 grow into L5

A

in the glands of the rumen of cattle

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

34
Q
A

ostertagia

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

35
Q

how does ostertagia effect pH of the rumen

A

will increase pH
live inside and destroy the glands that produce HCl
cause erosion and undifferentiated cells

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

36
Q

what trichostrongyle will change the pH of the stomach

A

ostertagia

live in gastric glands- increase pH, ↑plama pepsinogen, low albulmin

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

37
Q

how does ostertagia cause increased plasma pepsingogen

A

destroy paietal cells that make HCl→ increased pH

pepsingogen needs low pH in order to be cleaved into pepsin

pepsin is used to cut proteins into peptides

live in gastric glands- increase pH, ↑plama pepsinogen, low albulmin

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

38
Q

type 1 ostertagia

A

young cattle grazing contaminated pasture for the 1st time

live in gastric glands- increase pH, ↑plama pepsinogen, low albulmin

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

39
Q

Type II ostertagia

A

older animals
parastite all leave arrested L4 at same time

live in gastric glands- increase pH, ↑plama pepsinogen, low albulmin

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

40
Q

symptoms of Trichostrongylus colubriformis

A

small intestine of ruminants

mucosal disruption, flattening of villi
protein loss and protracted diarrhea

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

41
Q

symptoms of Trichostrongylus axei

A

stomach: ruminants, swine and horses

erosion of galndular epithelium in stomach
mucosal permeability
nodules
hyperemic gastritits in horses

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

42
Q
A

Trichostrongylus- attack mucosa/glandular epithelium

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

43
Q
A

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

44
Q

what trichostrongyle cause gastritis

A

ostertagia

live in gastric glands- increase pH, ↑plama pepsinogen, low albulmin

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

45
Q

what trichostrongyle cause diarrhea

A

ostertagia- gastric glands, profuse and watery diarrhea, anorexia
trichostrongylus- mucosal disruption

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

46
Q

what trichostrongyle cause starvation

A

ostertagia- gastric glands- leads to profuse and watery diarrhea, anorexia and wasting

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus

47
Q

what trichostrongylus cause anemia

A

haemonchus

barberpole-blood feeding- anemia, low protein and bottle jaw

Trichostrongyle: haemonchus, ostertagia, trichostrongylus + Dictyocaulus
