Skin lesions in children with covId-19 appear to be related to the presence of the virus directly in the skin or as a consequence of the effect that its invasion produces in organs and systems. viral particles have been evidenced in the epithelium of eccrine glands and in the vascular endothelium of the skin of pediatric patients with symptoms of perniosis. the early diagnosis of skin signs associated with sArs-cov-2 (rash, enanthema, urticaria, perniosis, among others), the approach of differential diagnoses with frequent pathologies in the pediatric age and their timely treatment, will avoid serious complications and will allow to stop the spread of the virus.

Antecedentes: para monitorear el bienestar animal en la granja, el transporte y etapas posteriores, se está usando la información recolectada en las plantas de sacrificio, como una estrategia para disminuir los costos de monitoreo y hacer más eficiente el uso de la información de la inspección veterinaria. Objetivo: determinar la efectividad de las medidas basadas en el sacrificio, como indicadores de bienestar animal y evaluar las relaciones entre estos indicadores, las características sociodemográficas de los conductores y las condiciones de transporte de cerdos de ceba en una planta comercial. Métodos: se evaluaron 1.161 cerdos (105,6 ± 14,15 kg), de 22 granjas. En la inspección ante mortem se registraron las contusiones cutáneas, longitud y presencia o ausencia de lesiones por mordedura de la cola, cojera, tos, prolapso rectal y/o vaginal y hernia umbilical. Durante la evaluación post mortem se registraron lesiones pulmonares, pleuritis, pericarditis y lesiones hepáticas. Se estimó la prevalencia de estas lesiones y se analizaron las relaciones entre los indicadores ante mortem y post mortem mediante dos modelos multinivel de efectos mixtos, con la finca de origen como variable de efecto fijo. Resultados: la prevalencia de tos (18,9 %, n = 219), lesiones por mordedura de cola (4,6 %, n = 53), prolapso rectal (0,1 %, n = 11) y prolapso vaginal (0,1 %, n = 11) fue baja. Se observaron lesiones pulmonares en 34,2 ± 13,5 (media ± SEM) de cerdos, y fueron más prevalentes en los lóbulos craneales (11,9 ± 4,9) y medios (12,2 ± 5,2); los lóbulos caudales (5,3 ± 2,7) y accesorios (1,6 ± 1,6) se vieron menos afectados. El número de lesiones cutáneas se asoció significativamente con la edad, la experiencia laboral (años) y el estado civil de los conductores (p ≤ 0,001). La presencia o ausencia de lesiones en la cola estuvo fuertemente asociada con el número de lesiones en la piel, la puntuación de las lesiones pulmonares y el peso vivo del animal (p ≤ 0,001). Conclusiones: durante el pre-sacrificio los indicadores ante mortem y post mortem pueden proporcionar información clave para el seguimiento de enfermedades y el bienestar animal en granja y durante el transporte.

A two-year-old male Duroc Jersey pig with 250 kg body-weight presented a swollen mass tissue of hard consistency in the ventral side of the neck skin fold and severe inflammation at the tarsal joint of the right hind limb. The Gram-positive bacteria Trueperella (Arcanobacterium) pyogenes was isolated in pure culture by microbiological methods and was sensitive to several antibiotics including Gentamicin and Sulfa-trimethoprim. The abscesses were drained and the pig treated with sulfa-trimethoprim at 20 mg/kg for 5 d and later with gentamicin at 5 mg/kg for 5 d together with anti-inflammatory drugs. The abscesses re-emerged and the pig was sacrificed and the anatomo-pathological findings at necropsy recorded. T. pyogenes caused severe suppurative arthritis and cutaneous abscesses in a pig, suggesting the need of surveillance and rapid diagnostics methods in the Tolima pig industry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Tertiary syphilis is manifest as a result of untreated syphilis, presenting a variable set of events that appear months or years after the infection, it typically affects the skin and may have multisystemic involvement. We present a case of tertiary syphilis with atypical skin lesions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
