| 英文描述 | A disease syndrome of neurologic dysfunction and other signs has been associated with riboflavin deficiency in chickens. This usually occurs in young rapidly-growing broiler chickens, and has been referred to as curly-toed paralysis although only a small proportion of affected chickens may develop the curly-toe sign. Lesions have included peripheral nerve edema, demyelination and Schwann cell hyperplasia. Some investigators have also described central nervous system lesions. Diagnosis is based on feed analysis and post mortem examination. |
