<FlashCard questions="10">
|q1= What is the difference between a Stercorarian trypanosome and a Salivarian trypanosome?
|a1=
*Stercorarian develop within an insect and are transmitted through their faeces.
*Salivarian trypanosomes develop within tsetseflies and transmitted through bites.
|l1=Trypanosomosis#Introduction
|q2= What is the syndrome that trypanosomosis causes in humans?
|a2= Sleeping sickness
|l2= Trypanosomosis#Introduction
|q3= At what age are cattle most susceptible to trypanosomosis?
|a3= 6-9 years old
|l3= Trypanosomosis#Signalment
|q4= Which salivarian trypanosome affects all domestic mammals and causes skin disease in donkeys?
|a4= ''T. brucei''
|l4= Trypanosomosis#Salivarian Species
|q5= Which salivarian trypanosome does not require a vector and what disease does it cause?
|a5=
*''T. equiperdum''
*Dourine
|l5= Trypanosomosis#Salivarian Species
|q6= Which stercorarian trypanosome causes Chagas’ disease in humans in South America? What is its insect vector?
|a6=
*''T. cruzi''
*The triatomid kissing bug
|l6= Trypanosomosis#Stercorarian Species
|q7= Where are the salivarian trypanosomes found?
|a7= In the tsetse fly belt of Africa.
|l7=Trypanosomosis#Distribution
|q8= What are the clinical features of trypanosomosis in ruminants?
|a8=
*Lymphadenopathy ad splenomegaly initially
*Later on, lymphoid exhaustion and atrophy of spleen and lymph nodes
*Haemolytic anaemia
*Emaciation
*Abortion
*Orchitis
|l8= Trypanosomosis#Clinical Signs
|q9= How can low levels of parasitaemia be detected?
|a9= By haemolysing whole blood samples and analysing the plasma:buffy coat interface microscopically to look for organisms.
|l9= Trypanosomosis#Diagnosis
|q10=What is the most common treatment for trypanosomosis? What consideration should be made when treating horses?
|a10= Diminazene aceturate – causes local reactions in horses and so should be given at multiple sites as deep muscular injections and massaged well.
