Four groups of non-pregnant, first second and third trimester pregnant Zebu heifers were used to study and compare the clinical manifestations of Trypanosoma vivax infection. All the infected heifers developed clinical trypanosomiasis manifested by massive parasitaemia, fluctuating pyrexia, anaemia, dull hair coat, emaciation, jugular pulse and enlarged superficial lymph nodes. There were group variations in the severity of signs shown. Infected non-pregnant heifers and heifers in the third trimester of pregnancy developed a more severe form of the disease than pregnant heifers in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy.
选取四组非妊娠、妊娠早期、中期和晚期的泽布牛小母牛，用于研究和比较感染活泼锥虫后的临床表现。所有感染的小母牛均出现了临床锥虫病，表现为大量寄生虫血症、体温波动、贫血、被毛暗淡、消瘦、颈静脉搏动和浅表淋巴结肿大。各组所表现出的症状严重程度存在差异。感染的非妊娠小母牛和妊娠晚期的小母牛所患疾病形式比妊娠早期和中期的妊娠小母牛更为严重。
