| description | <b>Aim: </b>The objective of the present study was to reveal the relationship between
hemogram parameters and mortality in neonatal calves with diarrhea from
different etiological origins.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> Fifty calves with diarrhea were enrolled in the study.
The calves were divided into 2 groups as surviving and non-surviving calves.
In addition, on the basis of the stool quick test and etiological agent, it was
divided into 3 subgroups: bacterial (E. coli), viral (rotavirus and coronavirus),
and parasitic (Cryptosporidium parvum). Total leukocyte (WBC), lymphocyte
(Lym), monocyte (Mon), granulocyte (Gra), erythrocyte (RBC), mean
corpuscular volume (MCV), hematocrit (HCT), mean corpuscular hemoglobin
(MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), red blood cell
distribution width (RDW), hemoglobin (Hb), and thrombocyte (PLT) were
measured.<p>
<b>Results: </b>Regardless of etiology, MCHC levels of non-surviving calves were
lower than those of surviving calves (cut-off: 32.15 g/dL, 68% sensitivity,
62% specificity, p = 0.041). Also, MCHC levels of non-surviving calves with
viral etiology were lower than those of surviving calves (cut-off: 31.75 g/
dL, 85% sensitivity, 75% specificity, p = 0.029). RBC levels of non-surviving
calves with E. coli etiology were lower than those of surviving calves (cut-off:
9.27 ×103 cells/mL, 83% sensitivity, 84% specificity, p = 0.024). There was no
statistically significant difference in hemogram parameters of calves infected
with C. parvum.<p>
<b>Conclusion:</b> MCHC and RBC levels were statistically significant in the
estimation of mortality in neonatal calf diarrhea. The evaluation of hemogram
parameters together with other blood parameters (blood gas, etc.) may be
more useful in estimating mortality. |
