Snippet: ve, clearly separating this syndrome from BHZD clinically. Nonetheless, zinc supplementation might help the animal to survive longer, possibly because of positive effects of zinc on skin and immune system. 29 Marked hypoplasia of the thymus with an average thymus weight of 18 g has been reported in 15 affected BHZD calves. 30 Thymus weights in this study revealed thymic atrophy, yet the thymus was readily identifiable and weighed nearly 3 times m.....
Document: ve, clearly separating this syndrome from BHZD clinically. Nonetheless, zinc supplementation might help the animal to survive longer, possibly because of positive effects of zinc on skin and immune system. 29 Marked hypoplasia of the thymus with an average thymus weight of 18 g has been reported in 15 affected BHZD calves. 30 Thymus weights in this study revealed thymic atrophy, yet the thymus was readily identifiable and weighed nearly 3 times more than described in BHZD. Although thymus weight/body weight ratio was lower than published ratios, 31 gross and histologic examination could not support a finding of "marked hypoplasia."
