説明

Canine Heartworm Antigen & Canine Ehrlichia & Canine Lyme Disease & Canine Anaplasma Antibody Test

Canine Heartworm Disease, Canine Ehrlichiosis, Canine Lyme Disease and Canine Anaplasma Disease are common infectious diseases in dogs. Although they are caused by different pathogens and have their own characteristics, there are commonalities in some aspects.

Commonalities between canine heartworm, canine ehrlichiosis, canine lyme disease and canine anaplasma

Means of transmission

All are transmitted by vectors: canine heartworm disease is transmitted by mosquitoes, and the other three diseases are transmitted by ticks.

臨床症状

All four diseases may cause systemic symptoms such as fever, lethargy, and weight loss.

Geographic distribution

Globally distributed, especially more common in areas where ticks and mosquitoes are active.

Differences of canine heartworm, canine ehrlichiosis, canine Lyme disease, and canine Anaplasma

病原体

Canine Heartworm Disease: caused by Canine Heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis).

犬エーリキア症：Ehrlichia canisによって引き起こされる。

犬のライム病：Borrelia burgdorferiによって引き起こされる。

Canine Anaplasmosis: caused by Anaplasma (Babesia spp.).

具体的な症状

Canine Heartworm disease: coughing, dyspnea, decreased exercise tolerance, heart failure, ascites.

Canine Ehrlichiosis: nosebleeds, bleeding tendencies, eye problems (e.g., uveitis).

Canine Lyme disease: chronic arthritis, lameness, kidney damage.

Canine Anaplasma disease: acute anemia, jaundice, splenomegaly.

診断方法

Canine heartworm

Antigen detection: detection of canine heartworm antigen in blood is the most commonly used screening method.

Microfilariae detection: Microfilariae (larvae) can be directly observed on blood smears.

Imaging tests: X-rays and echocardiograms are used to assess damage to the heart and lungs.

PCR test: Used to detect the DNA of canine heartworms with high sensitivity and specificity.

Canine Ehrlichiosis

Blood tests: blood smears can be observed for Ehrlichia, and blood biochemistry and complete blood cell counts show anemia and thrombocytopenia.

PCR test: detects the DNA of Ehrlichia.

血清学的検査：抗エルリッヒア抗体を検出する。

犬のライム病

Serologic test: detects anti-Ehrlichia Spirochete antibodies.

PCR: detection of Burkholderia cepacia DNA.

Clinical evaluation: Comprehensive evaluation with clinical signs and history.

犬アナプラズマ

Blood smear: direct observation of Anaplasma.

PCR test: Detection of Anaplasma DNA.

血清学的検査：抗アナプラズマ抗体を検出する。

Blood biochemistry test: assesses anemia and bilirubin levels.
