    Abstract A total of 90 pigs, approximately one day of age, were used in a 42-day study to evaluate whether Endovac-Porci, a core antigen vaccine with an immunostimulant, provides piglets with broad-spectrum protection against the enteric and respiratory effects of Gram-negative bacteria. This study was a single-site, randomized, prospective, blinded, comparative placebo-controlled design. Individual pigs were randomly allocated to 1 of 2 treatments in a randomized design. An individual pig was considered the experimental unit for the farrowing phase (Study day 0 to 21), and the pen was considered the experimental unit for the nursery phase (Study day 21 to 42). Thus, there were 45 replications per treatment during the farrowing phase and 15 replications per treatment during the nursery phase. Treatments included a control product (saline; CP) and an investigational product (Endovac-Porci; IVP). On Study day 23, all pigs were challenged with enterotoxigenic

    Abstract Brucellosis is a highly contagious bacterial disease that mainly affects ruminants, but it may affect equines, canines, and felines. The disease is of utmost significance from an economic standpoint in countries where there is no national brucellosis prevention and eradication policy in operation. A systematic review was done to estimate disease burden, incidences, prevalence, and geographical distribution critical in planning appropriate intervention strategies for the control and prevention of Brucellosis. Research articles that were published during the period 2000-2020 were considered for this study after reinforced scrutiny by two independent authors. Meta-regression was used to examine heterogeneity, and subgroup and sensitivity analyses were used to calculate residual heterogeneity and the pooled prevalence of Brucellosis in livestock. Confounders such as geography, a diagnostic test, and species had the greatest

    Abstract The American Veterinary Medical Association recommends the use of practices that reduce or eliminate pain and discomfort associated with dehorning. Identification of an effective, long-acting local anesthetic that is practical for producers to implement and reduces pain from dehorning would benefit animal welfare. Thirty-two Holstein bulls and heifers were enrolled. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy and duration of activity of bupivacaine liposome suspension (BUP; n = 8), ethanol (ETH; n = 8), or meloxicam (LID + MEL; n = 8) co-administered with lidocaine compared with lidocaine only (LID; n = 8), and to quantify their effect on pain biomarkers and behaviors after scoop dehorning with cauterization in approximately 20-wk-old calves. Outcome variables collected included infrared thermography (IRT), mechanical nociceptive threshold (MNT), visual analog scale (VAS) scoring, and blood sampling for serum cortisol and prostaglandin E

    Abstract The American Veterinary Medical Association recommends the use of practices that reduce or eliminate pain and discomfort associated with dehorning. Identification of an effective, long-acting local anesthetic that is practical for producers to implement and reduces pain from dehorning would benefit animal welfare. Thirty-two Holstein bulls and heifers were enrolled. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy and duration of activity of bupivacaine liposome suspension (BUP; n = 8), ethanol (ETH; n = 8), or meloxicam (LID + MEL; n = 8) co-administered with lidocaine compared with lidocaine only (LID; n = 8), and to quantify their effect on pain biomarkers and behaviors after scoop dehorning with cauterization in approximately 20-wk-old calves. Outcome variables collected included infrared thermography (IRT), mechanical nociceptive threshold (MNT), visual analog scale (VAS) scoring, and blood sampling for serum cortisol and prostaglandin E₂ metabolites (PGEM). There was evidence of a sex effect for MNT, with bulls demonstrating a higher threshold (13.74 kgf) compared with heifers (12.12 kgf). There was a treatment by time interaction for cortisol concentrations (ng/mL). At 2 h, the BUP group had higher cortisol values (17.32 ng/mL) than the LID + MEL group (3.10 ng/mL). Heifers also had higher mean cortisol values (13.88 ng/mL) compared with bulls (6.96 ng/mL). There was a treatment by time interaction for PGEM concentration. Calves in the LID + MEL group had lower PGEM values at 4 and 8 h (10.23 and 9.12 pg/mL) than at −24, 0, and 0.5 h (20.38, 27.27, and 22.59 pg/mL, respectively). At 4 h, the LID + MEL group had lower PGEM concentrations (10.23 pg/mL) than the ETH group (27.08 pg/mL). At 8 h, the LID + MEL group had lower PGEM concentrations (9.12 pg/mL) than both the ETH and BUP groups (24.80 and 20.52 pg/mL). Thus, LID + MEL reduced cortisol and prostaglandin metabolite concentrations more effectively than ETH + LID or BUP + LID administered as a local infiltration and cornual block, respectively, before scoop dehorning followed by cauterization. The treatments administered in the present study did not seem to extend the duration of analgesia beyond the currently recommended multimodal approach, including local anesthesia and systemic analgesia such as lidocaine and meloxicam. Evidence from the current study suggests that sex influences pain biomarkers such as nociceptive threshold and cortisol concentration, with males having a higher nociceptive threshold and lower cortisol responses.

    Abstract: The objective of this study was to quantify the frequency, distribution, and variability of fecal shedding and super-shedding of Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli (STEC) serogroups O26, O45, O103, O111, O121, O145, and O157 in feedlot cattle over ... ...

    Abstract The objective of this study was to quantify the frequency, distribution, and variability of fecal shedding and super-shedding of Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli (STEC) serogroups O26, O45, O103, O111, O121, O145, and O157 in feedlot cattle over time. A total of 750 fecal grab samples were collected over a 5-week period (June–July 2017) from 150 cattle housed in 10 pens at a commercial feedlot operation. Samples were subjected to culture-based methods and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction for STEC detection and quantification. Cumulative animal-level prevalence estimates were 9.5%, 5.2%, and 15.8% for STEC O157, non-O157 STEC serogroups only (STEC-6), and for all STEC serogroups tested (STEC-7), respectively, with the prevalence of STEC O157 and STEC-7 significantly differing between weeks (p < 0.01). Most of the variability in fecal shedding for STEC O157, STEC-6, and STEC-7 was between pens, rather than between cattle. Over the 5-week period, 10 animals (6.7%) persistently shed STEC non-O157 over 3 or more consecutive weeks, whereas 2 animals (1.3%) intermittently shed STEC non-O157 on nonconsecutive weeks. Fifteen animals (10.0%) shed multiple STEC serogroups within the same fecal sample and five animals (3.3%) shed multiple serogroups at super-shedding levels, higher than 104 CFU (colony-forming units)/g, in the same sample. The presence of a super-shedder in a pen was significantly associated with a greater within pen-level prevalence of STEC-6 (p = 0.01). This study gives further insights into intermittent and persistent shedding and super-shedding patterns of STEC serogroups in individual feedlot cattle, which can enable the development and effective application of preharvest and periharvest interventions, as well as surveillance strategies, for these pathogens.
