Transient decrease in blood heterophils and sustained liver damage caused by calicivirus infection of young rabbits that are naturally resistant to rabbit haemorrhagic disease

TL;DR: It is proposed that, although resistant to RHD, young rabbits infected by calicivirus may be long-term carriers of the infectious agent and, thus, become a major source of transmission of the virus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Severe leukopenia and liver biochemistry changes in adult rabbits after calicivirus infection.

TL;DR: It is concluded that severe leukopenia characterizes the final hours of calicivirus-induced RHD, hypoglycemia and cholestasis precede death of rabbits from RHD and the kinetics of liver enzymes allows an accurate prediction of the time of death of Rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD).
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison between observed children's tooth brushing habits and those reported by mothers.

TL;DR: Data regarding children's tooth-brushing habits as reported by mothers should be considered with caution in epidemiological surveys on fluoridated dentifrice use and the risk of dental fluorosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Liver Enzymes and Ultrastructure in Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD)

TL;DR: Monitoring of liver enzymes in blood samples of calicivirus-infected rabbits offered a correlation between biochemical and cytological features of the liver during the hepatocellular degeneration of RHD.
