Respiratory Diseases of Gallinaceous Birds

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2000
Respiratory conditions constitute many of the diseases affecting all avian species, including gallinaceous birds. Clinical signs and gross lesions of different respiratory diseases are often similar, and establishing a definitive diagnosis may require ancillary laboratory testing. Determination of a specific diagnosis allows practitioners to select the

Diverse Wild Bird Host Range of Mycoplasma gallisepticum in Eastern North America

PLoS ONE, 2014
Emerging infectious diseases often result from pathogens jumping to novel hosts. Identifying possibilities and constraints on host transfer is therefore an important facet of research in disease ecology.

Accuracy of diagnostic codes and algorithms used to identify rheumatoid arthritis and juvenile idiopathic arthritis in administrative claims and electronic health records: systematic review and meta‐analysis.

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective This systematic review aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of algorithms used to identify rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in electronic health records (EHRs). Methods We searched MEDLINE, Embase, and CENTRAL databases and included studies that validated case definitions against a reference standard such ...

Environmental levels of avian antigen are relevant to the progression of chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis during antigen avoidance

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2018
Background In chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (chronic HP), antigen avoidance is critical for disease management; however, complete avoidance is difficult because of unrecognized exposure to antigens.

Viral diseases of companion birds

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2005
Many viruses definitively cause disease in our companion birds, whereas other viruses have been implicated or associated with typical clinical signs. Some families of viruses that have been discovered in mammals have not been associated with disease in birds.

Bioinspired Design of a Wet‐Adhesive Cornea Glue Based on Recombinant Human Protein Networks

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Natures protein‐based high performance materials e.g. elastin, silk and muscle proteins have been mimicked by a new protein‐hybrid material based on redesigned human partial sequences only, showing high wet‐adhesiveness and elasticity for biomedical applications.

Bacterial Agents for Biocontrol of American Foulbrood (AFB) of Larvae Honey Bee

Microbiology Research
Bee colonies are constantly threatened by a bacterial larvae disease called American foulbrood, caused by the Gram-positive bacterium Paenibacillus larvae. This is a highly specialized pathogen with only one established host, the honey bee larvae.

Experimental Infection of North American Birds with the New York 1999 Strain of West Nile Virus

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003
To evaluate transmission dynamics, we exposed 25 bird species to West Nile virus (WNV) by infectious mosquito bite. We monitored viremia titers, clinical outcome, WNV shedding (cloacal and oral), seroconversion, virus persistence in organs, and ...
