| Course contents : | The course "Animal Bacterial Diseases" is subdivided into three main parts:
1) Description of the virulence properties of bacterial pathogens, subdivided into 4 chapters:
- colonisation properties
- epithelium crossing properties
- invasive properties
- deleterious properties
The molecular and cellular aspects of the Pathogens-Hosts interactions will be described, so that the student can understand how the cell and tissue lesions occur and develop, that are the basis of the occurrence of the clinical signs.
2) Pathogenesis of the bacterial diseases, subdivided into 8 chapters according to the site of infections and/or of origin of the infections:
- intestines and stomach
- respiratory tract (from trachea to lung)
- urinary tract
- genital tracts (with the mammary gland)
- (sub-)cutaneous tissues and the eye (conjunctiva, cornea)
- mouth-nose-pharynx-larynx
- septicaemia
- multi-systemic infections
In each chapter, the aetiology and pathogenesis are described at first. Then the clinical signs and lesions are presented so that the student can easily understand the diagnosis, treatment and prohylaxis methods. When necessary the zoonotic aspects will be briefly described.
3) Current topics in bacterial diseases and wild life health and diseases.
Those global data will be completed by the description of some diseases of special interest during the previous 2-3 years and by one lecture on the diseases of the wild life species.
The first-line animal species are: bovines, dogs, horses and poultry. Second-line animal species are: pigs, small ruminants, cats, rabbits. |
|
| Course objective : | The objective is to describe the molecular mecanisms of interaction between bacterial pathogènes and their host tissues and cells. By doing so and by transversal analysis with other courses, the student understands the production of cell and tissue lesions that are the basis of the dysfunction of the organs and, by deduction, the expression of clinical signs that are, or can be, observed.
This course is therefore complementary of the courses of Bacteriology and Immunology of the 3rd BAC and to the courses of Physiopathology, Pathology and Pharmocology of 1st GMV.This course also represents an introduction to the courses of Internal Medicine, Obstetrics, and even Surgery, of 2nd GMV, whose orientations are more "clinical". |
|
| Prerequisites : | Prerequisites are the following courses: Bacteriology and Immunology of 3rd BAC; Physiopathology, Pathology and Pharmacology of 1st GMV. |
|
| Workshops : | There are no TP, no TD, no PCL associated with the course in 1st GMV. |
|
| Organization : | 36 hours of ex-cathedra lectures. |
|
| Written notes : | The students' notes in MSWord are already present. The PwPt slides (with no illustration) will be added on line as soon as they are ready. The notes of the 3eBAC and 2eGMV (MSWord) are also on line for the 1erGMV students.
Some books can be proposed as complementary (not as first basis). They can be found in the Bacteriology lab, or at the library. Some books target the bacterial virulence mechanisms (Part 1), others deal with the description of the diseases themselves (Part 2).
Please refer to the French version. |
|
| Assessment : | The written examination takes place in June as follows:
- two questions with a long answer ("question à réponse ouverte longue" or QROL) to assess the general knowledge of the students (= synthesis, analysis, restitution);
- a multiple choice questionnaire (or QCM: 30-40 questions without "degré de certitude") to assess the knowledge of the details by the students (= restitution).
Either QROL questions and the QCM account for one third of the final note. |
|
| Contacts : | Please refer to the French version. |
|
| Remarks : | For pedagogy and organization reasons, this course can not be chosen as isolated course by students who repeat their 3rd BAC during the academic year 2010-2011. |

| Items online : |
|
| 13 fichiers MSWord |
| Ces fichiers MSWord correspondent aux notes de cours de 2eGMV. Ils vous serviront de support pour le chapitre: "Pathogénie et cklinique des maladies bactériennes des animaux domestiques". |
|
|
|
| Matières et Examens de Bactériologie |
| Veuillez trouvez trois fichiers avec (i) la répartition des chapitres du cours de 1er GMV en fonction de l'examen; (ii) les questions posées en 2eGMV depuis 1993-1994; (iii) les dias PwPt du chapitre INFECTIONS GENERALISEES.
ATTENTION: n'oubliez pas que l'évaluation de vos réponses aux deux questions QROL portera autant sur les explications que vous donnerez que sur la matière que vous restituerez ! |
