Effect of Eimeria spp. and Staphylococcus aureus challenge on cecal microbiome in broilers [PDF]

Poultry Science
Staphylococcus aureus, associated with Bacterial Chondronecrosis and Osteomyelitis (BCO), is a leading cause of lameness in modern-day broilers, often seen with concomitant gut health aberrations such as coccidiosis. This study aims to uncover changes in

The Genetic Landscape of Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in Enterococcus cecorum Broiler Isolates [PDF]

Antibiotics
Enterococcus cecorum is associated with bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO) in broilers. Prophylactic treatment with antimicrobials is common in the poultry industry, and, in the case of outbreaks, antimicrobial treatment is needed.

Prophylactic administration of a combined prebiotic and probiotic, or therapeutic administration of enrofloxacin, to reduce the incidence of bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis in broilers

Poultry Science, 2015
Bacteria entering the bloodstream via translocation from the gastrointestinal tract spread hematogenously and can trigger bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO) by infecting osteochondrotic microfractures in the epiphyseal-physeal cartilage of the proximal femora and tibiae.

Welfare of broilers on farm

EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023
Abstract This Scientific Opinion considers the welfare of domestic fowl (Gallus gallus) related to the production of meat (broilers) and includes the keeping of day‐old chicks, broiler breeders, and broiler chickens. Currently used husbandry systems in the EU are described. Overall, 19 highly relevant welfare consequences (WCs) were identified based on

Assessment of listing and categorisation of animal diseases within the framework of the Animal Health Law (Regulation (EU) No 2016/429): antimicrobial‐resistant Enterococcus cecorum in poultry

EFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022
Abstract Enterococcus cecorum (E. cecorum) was identified among the most relevant antimicrobial‐resistant (AMR) bacteria in the EU for poultry in a previous scientific opinion. Thus, it has been assessed according to the criteria of the Animal Health Law (AHL), in particular criteria of Article 7 on disease profile and impacts, Article 5 on its ...

Radiological, vascular osteochondrosis occurs in the distal tarsus, and may cause osteoarthritis

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 54, Issue 1, Page 82-96, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Osteochondrosis occurs due to failure of the blood supply to growth cartilage. Osteochondrosis lesions have been identified in small tarsal bones and suggested to cause distal tarsal osteoarthritis; however, it has not been determined whether distal tarsal osteochondrosis lesions were the result of vascular failure.

Development of the blood supply to the growth cartilage of the medial femoral condyle of foals

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 53, Issue 1, Page 134-142, January 2021., 2021
Abstract Background Growth cartilage is found in the articular‐epiphyseal cartilage complex (AECC) and the physis. It has a temporary blood supply organised as end arteries. Vascular failure is associated with osteochondrosis, but infection can also obstruct vessels.
