What is ruminal acidosis, and what should make you call the vet at once?

Too much grain concentrate, or too rapid a change of feed (see 3.1). You will see rumination stop, diarrhoea and dullness, and severe cases can be fatal. The direction of management is that this is an emergency requiring urgent veterinary treatment, with medication that must be prescribed. In the source chapter this row belongs to the group needing prompt attention; the actual judgement still rests with the veterinarian case by case, and this text gives no drug names or doses.

What is bloat (free-gas／frothy types), and what should make you call the vet at once?

The frothy type usually follows heavy intake of legume pasture; the free-gas type follows oesophageal obstruction or abnormal posture. You will see marked distension of the left flank, laboured breathing and restlessness. The direction of management is that this is an emergency — a distended left flank together with laboured breathing can be fatal within hours — so seek care immediately. In the source chapter this row belongs to the group needing prompt attention; the actual judgement still rests with the veterinarian case by case, and this text gives no drug names or doses.

What is milk fever／hypocalcemia, and what should make you call the vet at once?

Rapid loss of calcium around calving to supply milk production. You will see unsteadiness, the cow going down and unable to rise, and a low body temperature. The direction of management is that this is an emergency requiring urgent veterinary treatment. In the source chapter this row belongs to the group needing prompt attention; the actual judgement still rests with the veterinarian case by case, and this text gives no drug names or doses.

This record notes the source location and content hash of "Cattle｜10 Common Diseases (cause → signs → examination → treatment direction → prevention)", so the text can be checked against the original.

How to use this record to verify

This record exists so that anyone can check for themselves whether the text has been altered. Every chapter of the veterinary encyclopaedia carries a starting line number and a content hash (the first 16 characters of its SHA-256). Recompute the hash over the original chapter: if it matches the value recorded below, what is published here is identical to the source chapter. The source list at the end is the authoritative material cited by that chapter — a chapter-level correspondence, meaning those sources underpin the chapter as a whole rather than mapping sentence by sentence. This is educational information and cannot replace a practising veterinarian; in an emergency, seek care immediately.

This record notes the source location of "Cattle｜10 Common Diseases (cause → signs → examination → treatment direction → prevention) | Evidence chain": the section beginning at line 196 of `27-T8-農場與T9-馬.md` in the veterinary encyclopaedia. The SHA-256 of that section (first 16 characters) is `b81375a14d08b5ad`, which anyone can recompute to confirm the content has not been altered.
