Abstract	Keeping cattle outdoors year-around is considered an attractive alternative to indoor winter-housing, due to lower investment costs and better welfare. However, hair loss, attributed to lice, may impair cattle's thermal balance during harsh winters. During the winters of 2019-2021, outdoor cattle in Sweden were studied for the prevalence and development of hair loss, while surveys were conducted among the farmers on their perceptions and attitudes around hair loss. Of the 463 groups of cattle from 75 farms enrolled in a welfare control program issued by the Swedish Board of Agriculture, 25.7% (n = 119) had at least one animal with hair loss. When we followed up a subset of animals (n = 3673) which did not receive prophylactic delousing, 15.7% developed hair loss. Hair loss occurrence increased between visits within each winter in these animals, suggesting a contagious etiology. Logistic regression analyses, using the information collected in the control program and the hair loss outcome, showed that preventive delousing before November was effective, alongside keeping animals clean and the group size small. Meanwhile, being older (>2 years) and having access to bedding materials was shown to increase the risk at an animal-level. Some groups (n = 34) had no hair loss despite receiving no prophylactic delousing. Based on the survey conducted among the farmers (n = 15), groups with lower hair loss prevalence belonged to farmers who were more observant of hair loss and gave prompt treatment. This study provides knowledge useful to limit delousing interventions without compromising animal welfare.

Abstract	Mastitis is prevalent both in milk- and meat- and pelt producing sheep flocks and is an important disease with substantial effects on economy, animal welfare and antibiotic use, and in dairy flocks also on milk quality and safety. In meat- and pelt producing flocks, the farmers are mainly concerned by clinical mastitis (CM), and most cases of subclinical mastitis (SCM) are not detected and not dealt with, posing a risk for poor udder health in the flock. Studies on risk factors for SCM and/or intramammary infections (IMI) in meat producing flocks are scarce and specific risk factors for weaning and lambing are absent. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate associations between risk factors, at ewe and flock level, for IMI after lambing and at weaning in Swedish meat- and pelt producing ewes with clinically healthy udders. Twenty-two meat- and pelt producing flocks from different parts of Sweden were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Udder half milk samples were collected at weaning and after lambing from ewes with clinically healthy udders, for bacteriological investigations. Data on ewe and flock level risk factors were recorded. In total, 753 ewes were sampled at least once, and the overall IMI prevalence was 22.5 %. Older ewes, ewes with three or more lambs, ewes that were hard to milk when collecting a milk sample, ewes in moderate size flocks, in flocks with hay as a bedding material and in flocks with less cases of CM had higher risk of IMI. Most of the risk factors associated with IMI in this study differed between weaning and lambing. This study has provided us with novel knowledge on how different factors influence udder health of meat- and pelt producing ewes.

Abstract	Little has been published on the factors influencing the safety and quality of milk derived from water buffalo in Bangladesh. This study aims to describe the milk hygiene parameters and milk chain characteristics of unpasteurized raw milk sold to consumers in order to improve milk hygiene. A quantitative study design evaluated somatic cell counts, total bacterial counts, and specific gram-negative (Enterobacteria) and gram-positive (staphylococci) pathogens in 377 aseptically collected milk samples. Samples were collected at multiple nodes along the buffalo milk value chain: 122 bulk tank milk samples were collected at the farm level, 109 milk samples at the middlemen level, and 111 milk samples at the milk collection centers. In addition, 35 samples were taken from various milk products at the retail level. It was found that progressively increasing somatic cell counts and bacterial counts, including potential pathogens, occurred along the milk chain. A seasonal increase in spring was found, varying based on the farming system (semi-intensive versus intensive). Other factors included water purity and cleanliness of containers, mixing buffalo and cow's milk, and the location of the water buffalo milk producer (coastal or river basin). This study demonstrated how improving udder health and milk hygiene along the water buffalo milk value chain would increase the safety and quality of water buffalo milk in the study area.

Abstract	A cross-sectional study was conducted to estimate the prevalence of intramammary infection (IMI) associated bacteria and to identify risk factors for pathogen group-specific IMI in water buffalo in Bangladesh. A California Mastitis Test (CMT) and bacteriological cultures were performed on 1,374 quarter milk samples collected from 763 water buffalo from 244 buffalo farms in nine districts in Bangladesh. Quarter, buffalo, and farm-related data were obtained through questionnaires and visual observations. A total of 618 quarter samples were found to be culture positive. Non-aureus staphylococci were the predominant IMI-associated bacterial species, and Staphylococcus (S.) chromogenes, S. hyicus, and S. epidermidis were the most common bacteria found. The proportion of non-aureus staphylococci or Mammaliicoccus sciuri (NASM), S. aureus, and other bacterial species identified in the buffalo quarter samples varied between buffalo farms. Therefore, different management practices, buffalo breeding factors, and nutrition were considered and further analyzed when estimating the IMI odds ratio (OR). The odds of IMI by any pathogen (OR: 1.8) or by NASM (OR: 2.2) was high in buffalo herds with poor milking hygiene. Poor cleanliness of the hind quarters had a high odds of IMI caused by any pathogen (OR: 2.0) or NASM (OR: 1.9). Twice daily milking (OR: 3.1) and farms with buffalo purchased from another herd (OR: 2.0) were associated with IMI by any pathogen. Asymmetrical udders were associated with IMI-caused by any bacteria (OR: 1.7). A poor body condition score showed higher odds of IMI by any pathogen (OR: 1.4) or by NASM (OR: 1.7). This study shows that the prevalence of IMI in water buffalo was high and varied between farms. In accordance with the literature, our data highlight that IMI can be partly controlled through better farm management, primarily by improving hygiene, milking management, breeding, and nutrition.

Abstract	The present article concerns meals from the point of view of children, focusing on structural and sociocultural aspects of meals in a Western context in general, and Sweden in particular. The aim was to study children's perceptions of meals with regard to what, where and with whom meals are eaten and how meals are made. The method used was an internet‐based, ethnological questionnaire, which is a qualitative method in which participants share their experiences and values regarding a certain topic of interest in writing. A hundred and twelve Swedish children were included. The children almost exclusively chose to write about family meals. These meals were described as well‐structured and organized, and were often portrayed in an idealized way, with family members sharing proper meals at home, spending an enjoyable time together with a nice atmosphere and good conversation. The children made a distinction between everyday meals and festive meals, where the main differences were that festive meals were more prone to include extended family and friends besides the nuclear family, and were described in a more exceptional way with regard to what is served and mealtime conditions. The article concludes that the family meal functioned as a way to construct the family and as a site where children acquire norms and values about meals and family identity, but they did so in an active way, by breaking rules and by challenging norms, thereby also contributing to change. The changing nature of the family meal was also seen in an extended proper meal and the commensal aspects surrounding mealtime, as commensality included both commensal eating and commensal foodwork.

Abstract	Whole-genome sequencing was carried out on 30 Staphylococcus (S.) aureus isolates from dairy cows with subclinical mastitis from all five provinces of Rwanda. Twenty-five of the isolates produced enough sequence to be analyzed using core genome multilocus sequence typing (cg-MLST). The isolates group into three main clusters. The largest cluster contain isolates of sequence type (ST) 152 (n = 6) and the closely related ST1633 (n = 2). These sequence types have previously mainly been encountered in humans. The isolates of the second-largest cluster belong to ST5477 (n = 5),so far exclusively isolated from cows in Rwanda. The third cluster consists of isolates of ST97 (n = 4), which is a well-known bovine-adapted sequence type. These three clusters were all widespread over the country. Isolates of the usually human-adapted sequence types 1 (n = 2) and 5 (n= 1) were found and a single isolate of ST2430, previously found among humans in Africa. Finally, four isolates of novel sequence types were found: ST7108 (n = 2), ST7109 (n = 1), and ST7110 (n = 1). The blaZ penicillin resistance gene was found in 84% of the isolates and was in all cases corroborated by phenotypic resistance determination. Five (20%) of the isolates carried a tetracycline resistance gene, tet(K) or tetM, and three of these five also displayed phenotypic resistance while two isolates carried a tetM-gene but were yet tetracycline susceptible. Seven (28%) isolates carried the dfrG gene conferring resistance to trimethoprim. Four of these isolates indeed were resistant to trimethoprim while three isolates were sensitive. The str gene conferring resistance to aminoglycosides was found in three isolates; however, none of these displayed resistance to gentamycin. Our data revealed a high diversity of the sequence types of S. aureus isolates from cows with subclinical mastitis in Rwanda. Two major clusters of ST97 and ST5477 are likely to be bovine adapted and cause mastitis while the third cluster of ST152 usually have been found in humans and may signify a recent transmission of these types from human to cows, for example from hand milking. The high prevalence of this sequence type among dairy cows may pose zoonotic threat. The sequence types were widely distributed without any geographic correlation. Penicillin resistance, the most common type of resistance with a prevalence over 80%, but also tetracycline and trimethoprim resistance were displayed by several isolates.

Abstract	Background: The documentation of goals and outcomes of nutrition care in Electronic Health Records is insufficient making further exploration of this of particular interest. Identifying common features in documentation practice among Scandinavian dietitians might provide information that can support improvement in this area. Aims: To explore the associations between clinical dietitians' self-reported documentation of patients' goals and outcomes and demographic factors, self-reported implementation of the systematic framework the Nutrition Care Process 4th step (NCP) and its associated terminology, and factors associated with the workplace. Methods: Data from a cross-sectional study based on a previously tested web-based survey (INIS) disseminated in 2017 to dietitians in Scandinavia (n = 494) was used. Respondents were recruited through e-mail lists, e-newsletters and social media groups for dietitians. Associations between countries regarding the reported documentation of goals and outcomes, implementation levels of the NCP 4th step, demographic information and factors associated with the workplace were measured through Chi-square test. Associations between dependent- and independent variables were measured through logistic regression analysis. Results: Clinically practicing dietitians (n = 347) working in Scandinavia, Sweden (n = 249), Norway (n = 60), Denmark (n = 38), who had completed dietetic education participated. The reported documentation of goals and outcomes from nutrition intervention was highly associated with the reported implementation of NCP 4th step terminology (OR = 5.26; p = 0.009, OR = 3.56; p = 0.003), support from the workplace (OR = 4.0, p < 0.001, OR = 8.89, p < 0.001) and area of practice (OR = 2.02, p = 0.017). Years since completed dietetic training and educational level did not have any significant associations with documentation practice regarding goals and outcomes. Conclusion: Findings highlight strong associations between the implementation of the NCP 4th step terminology and the documentation of goals and outcomes. Strategies to support dietitians in using standardized terminology and the development of tools for comprehensive documentation of evaluation of goals and outcome are required.
