Bu çalışmada, klinik demodikozis, kanin viseral leishmaniasis (KVL) ve atopik dermatitli (Ad) köpeklerde dermatolojik klinik skorlamaların uygulanması ve hastalık prognozuna olan etkisi incelendi. Farklı ırk, yaş ve cinsiyetteki 26 köpek (5 demodikozis, 12 CVL, 9 Ad) değerlendirildi. Her hastalık grubunda kabul görmüş klinik skorlamalar kullanılarak, rutin değerlendirmeler kapsamında hematolojik ve biyokimyasal analizler, deri kazıntısı, hızlı testler ve sitolojik incelemeler yapıldı. Ad’ li köpeklerde en yoğun lezyonlar aksilla ve abdominal bölgede, KVL’li köpeklerde ise en sık lenfadenomegali ve onikogrifozis gözlemlendi. Demodikozisli köpeklerde ise en şiddetli lezyonlar arka bacaklar ve boyun bölgesinde tespit edildi. Çalışmada, veteriner hekimlerin dermatolojik klinik skorlamalar ile hastalığın seyrini ve tedaviye yanıtı objektif olarak değerlendirebileceği ve bu sayede etkili tedavi stratejileri geliştirebileceği sonucuna ulaşıldı.

INVESTIGATION OF CLINICAL SCORING IN DOGS WITH ATOPIC DERMATITIS, LEISHMANIASIS, AND DEMODICOSIS

Öz

This study investigates the application of dermatological clinical scoring in dogs with clinical demodicosis, canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL), and atopic dermatitis (Ad), and its impact on disease prognosis. Twenty-six dogs of different breeds, ages, and genders (5 with demodicosis, 12 with CVL, and 9 with Ad) were evaluated. Accepted clinical scoring systems were used in each group, and routine evaluations included hematological and biochemical analyses, microscopic examination of skin scrapings, rapid tests, and cytological examinations. In dogs with Ad, the most intense lesions were observed in the axillary and abdominal regions, while lymphadenopathy and onychogryphosis were the most common findings in dogs with CVL. In dogs with demodicosis, the most severe lesions were found on the hind limbs and neck. This study concludes that veterinarians can use dermatological clinical scoring to objectively assess disease progression and response to treatment, thereby developing more effective treatment strategies.
