- W2074860187 abstract "Epidemiological studies have indicated incidences of 32.9% and 27.8% for rickets and osteomalacia, respectively, in Bactrian camels (Camelus bactrianus), but there is an increased incidence under drought conditions, sometimes reaching 75%. We have found that concentrations of phosphorus and copper in forage and soil samples in a drought affected area were significantly lower than in a control area or normal reference values (P<0.01); the mean Ca:P ratio in the forages was 50:1. The phosphorus content of blood and hair from affected camels was significantly less than that in controls (P<0.01) and concentrations of copper in the liver and kidney were significantly lower in affected camels than control animals (P<0.01); the concentrations of triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) in the serum from affected animals were significantly higher than those from healthy controls (P<0.01); serum inorganic phosphorus and ceruloplasmin levels were lower than those in the controls (P<0.01 or P<0.05); the concentrations of serum α-globulin and β-globulin were significantly higher in the affected camels than in the healthy controls (P<0.01). The pathological changes seen in camels affected with rickets included porous, brittle, light, osteoporotic bones that were susceptible to fractures and had less resistance to cutting and sawing. Wrist joints were enlarged with an apparent bowing of the long bones in forelimb and with typical broadening of the epiphyses. In adult female camels, many enlarged scars were often seen in ribs indicating earlier fractures. The disease could be cured with supplementary bone meal, phosphate or mineral mixtures and in field investigations clinical signs disappeared within 15 days. Over the same period, the concentrations of phosphorus and alkaline phosphatase in blood returned to normal. The disease may be effectively prevented by use of mineral blocks (block salt licks) or dosing orally with copper, selenium and cobalt soluble glass boluses. We conclude that rickets and osteomalacia are mainly caused by phosphorus and copper deficiencies in the pasture." @default.
