| pseudomembranous bronchitis | Inflammation of the bronchial mucous membrane, accompanied by a fibrinous exudation, which often forms a cast of the bronchial tree with severe obstruction of air flow. Synonym: plastic bronchitis, pseudomembranous bronchitis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| putrid bronchitis | Bronchitis accompanied by an expectoration of foul-smelling sputum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| quail bronchitis virus | A virus, similiar to an adenovirus, closely related antigenically to CELO virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fibrinous bronchitis | Inflammation of the bronchial mucous membrane, accompanied by a fibrinous exudation, which often forms a cast of the bronchial tree with severe obstruction of air flow. Synonym: plastic bronchitis, pseudomembranous bronchitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis | A form of mosquito-borne equine encephalomyelitis found in parts of South America, Panama, and Trinidad, caused by the Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis virus (a species of Alphavirus in the family Togaviridae), and characterised by less central nervous system involvement than occurs in either eastern or western equine encephalomyelitis; fever, diarrhoea, and depression are common; in man, there is fever and severe headache after an incubation period of 2 to 5 days, and in a few cases there has been central nervous system involvement. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis virus | A group A arbovirus of the genus Alphavirus, family Togaviridae, occurring in Venezuela and several other South American countries, in Panama and Trinidad, and occasionally the United States causing Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis in horses and humans; it seems to be more viscerotropic than neurotropic; the virus is transmitted by Culex mosquitoes. Synonym: VEE virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gonadotropins, equine | Polypeptide hormones secreted in pregnant mares at the junction of the placenta and endometrial cups. Preparations of this taken from the blood serum of pregnant mares have been used in the treatment of infertility, pituitary dwarfism, cryptorchidism, and other conditions in both human males and females. (12 Dec 1998) |
| rhinoviruses, equine | A group of viruses of the family picornaviridae, yet unclassified as to genus, though not a member of rhinovirus. They cause a disease in horses characterised by rhinitis, pharyngitis, and fever. (12 Dec 1998) |
| western equine encephalomyelitis | An equine encephalomyelitis found in the western U.S. And parts of South America, transmitted by mosquitoes and caused by the western equine encephalomyelitis virus (a species of Alphavirus in the family Togaviridae); the infection is similar to but milder than eastern equine encephalomyelitis in man and is, as a rule, inapparent, but some cases with central nervous system involvement have been fatal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| western equine encephalomyelitis virus | A group A arbovirus of the genus Alphavirus, family Togaviridae, occurring in the western United States and parts of South America; it occurs naturally, usually as a symptomless infection in birds, but causes western equine encephalomyelitis in horses and humans following transfer by the bites of mosquitoes, chiefly Culex tarsalis. Synonym: WEE virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| strongyle infections, equine | Infection of horses with parasitic nematodes of the superfamily strongyloidea. Characteristics include the development of haemorrhagic nodules on the abdominal peritoneum. (12 Dec 1998) |
| eastern equine encephalomyelitis | A form of mosquito-borne equine encephalomyelitis seen in the eastern U.S. And caused by the eastern equine encephalomyelitis virus, a species of Alphavirus, which belongs to the family Togaviridae; initial fever and viraemia are followed by signs of central nervous system involvement (excitement, then somnolence, paralysis, and death); the incidence of clinical infection in man is low but case fatality may be high. (05 Mar 2000) |
| eastern equine encephalomyelitis virus | A virus of the genus Alphavirus (formerly group A arbovirus), in the family Togaviridae, occurring in the eastern United States; it is normally present in certain wild birds as an inapparent infection, but is capable of causing eastern equine encephalomyelitis in horses and humans following transfer by the bites of culicine mosquitoes. Synonym: EEE virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| encephalitis virus, eastern equine | A species of alphavirus causing encephalomyelitis in equidae and humans. The virus ranges along the atlantic seaboard of the united states and canada and as far south as the caribbean, mexico, and parts of central and south america. Infections in horses show a mortality of up to 90 percent and in humans as high as 80 percent in epidemics. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis virus, venezuelan equine | A species of alphavirus that is the aetiologic agent of equine encephalomyelitis in humans and equines. It is seen most commonly in parts of central and south america. (12 Dec 1998) |
