In this context, the in vitro antimicrobial activity of Cannabis sativa extracts was evaluated against strains of Staphylococcus aureus (bovine and caprine), Staphylococcus chromogenes (bovine), and Staphylococcus caprae (caprine), isolated from herds in the state of Paraíba, Brazil. The assay was performed using the disk diffusion method (Kirby–Bauer), employing extracts rich in cannabidiol (CBD) and delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), isolated cannabigerol (CBG), and their combinations (CBD:CBG, THC:CBG, THC:CBD). The extracts were initially diluted in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to obtain a concentration of 30 mg/mL and subsequently diluted in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) to reach 3 mg/mL. Serial dilutions at a 1:3 ratio were then performed, resulting in concentrations ranging from 3.0 to 0.01 mg/mL, with inhibition zone readings taken at 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours. A concentration- and time-dependent effect was observed, with a significant increase in antimicrobial activity after 12 hours, followed by stabilization, and optimal activity at concentrations above 1.0 mg/mL. Among the treatments, the CBD:CBG combination showed the highest mean inhibition zone, outperforming the isolated extracts. Bovine-origin strains demonstrated greater susceptibility compared to caprine strains, with S. caprae showing the highest resistance profile. It can be concluded that phytocannabinoids, particularly in combined formulations and at concentrations ≥ 1.0 mg/mL, exhibit promising antimicrobial potential against staphylococci associated with mastitis, indicating possible future application as alternative or adjunct therapeutic agents.

The methodology used was data collection through the Google Forms platform, an online form with objective and discursive questions about consumers. The results show that, investigating exclusively from the perspective of demand, the enterprise presents good signs of viability, taking into account that the population under study showed itself capable of contributing to the establishment. The research indicates a possible viability in relation to the consumer market, since the socioeconomic profile of the population in question was shown to be above the Brazilian average salary and there is demand for the service.

In small animals, it is most frequently caused by trauma, especially automobile accidents. Animals diagnosed with diaphragmatic hernia represent a medical emergency, requiring immediate clinical stabilization and early referral for surgical intervention. Surgical management of diaphragmatic hernia in geriatric cats is challenging due to reduced cardiopulmonary reserve and increased anesthetic risk. Chronic diseases common at this age may impair immunity and wound healing. Coinfection with retroviruses, such as Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), exacerbates the surgical scenario by promoting immunosuppression, increasing the risk of opportunistic infections, impairing healing, and compromising the inflammatory response. Therefore, prior stabilization, nutritional support, and perioperative monitoring are essential for surgical success. This case report describes the clinical, diagnostic, surgical, and postoperative management of a 14-year-old geriatric cat coinfected with FIV, affected by circumferential and radial traumatic diaphragmatic hernia. On physical examination, the animal showed paradoxical dyspnea, muffled cardiac auscultation, and abdominal pain on palpation. Ultrasonography confirmed the hernia, and surgical correction was successfully performed 24 hours later, followed by regular postoperative care and weekly follow-up visits. Surgery remains the only effective treatment and must be carefully planned and conducted with extreme attention to the pre-, intra-, and postoperative periods, considering the patient’s advanced age and comorbidities to optimize prognosis and reduce complications.

This study aimed to determine the prevalence in domestic cats treated at the Veterinary Hospital of the Federal University of Paraíba, between 2023 and 2025, and to describe the main associated clinical and epidemiological aspects. A total of 144 cats were evaluated, undergoing anamnesis, clinical examination, and diagnosis through a rapid immunochromatographic test that detects FeLV antigen and FIV antibody. Additional data regarding living conditions, reproductive history, presence of comorbidities, and results of complementary examinations were obtained through interviews with owners and analysis of clinical records. The observed prevalence was 45.0% for FeLV and 8.3% for FIV, in addition to cases of coinfection, configuring a concerning epidemiological scenario that surpasses rates described in other regions of Brazil. Infection affected animals of different ages, sexes, breeds, and lifestyles, evidencing broad population distribution. Among the clinical findings, progressive weight loss, lymphadenopathy, chronic stomatitis, anemia, and opportunistic infections were highlighted, confirming the immunosuppressive nature of retroviral infections. The low vaccination coverage identified against FeLV, associated with the high percentage of positive animals, demonstrates weaknesses in preventive strategies and the urgent need to intensify actions in veterinary public health. It is concluded that systematic screening, vaccination, and segregation of infected animals are indispensable tools to reduce viral spread, promote feline welfare, and support more effective clinical practices.
