Modern thought often places fruits and vegetables at odds with each other. A food can belong to one but not both. Botanically speaking, a fruit develops from the wall of a plant's ovary and encases the seeds, so back in 1893, John Nix was right: Botanists consider tomatoes a fruit, not a vegetable.
Upper Respiratory Tract Infection in Dogs. Upper respiratory tract infections in the dog are most commonly due to bacteria and viruses. Until recently most clinicians assumed that dogs with acute onset nasal discharge, conjunctivitis, sneeze and cough had âkennel coughâ caused by Bordetella bronchiseptica.
Upper respiratory tract infections (URI or URTI) are illnesses caused by an acute infection which involves the upper respiratory tract including the nose, sinuses, pharynx or larynx. This commonly includes tonsillitis, pharyngitis, laryngitis, sinusitis, otitis media, and the common cold. In 2013, 18.8 million cases of upper respiratory infections occurred. As of 2014, upper respiratory infections caused about 3,000 deaths down from 4,000 in 1990. 1 Classification.
