Expert opinion on the identification, risk assessment, and mitigation of microorganisms and parasites relevant to xenotransplantation products from pigs

open access: yesXenotransplantation, Volume 30, Issue 5, September/October 2023., 2023
Abstract Xenotransplantation has the potential to address shortages of organs available for clinical transplantation, but concerns exist regarding potential risks posed by porcine microorganisms and parasites (MP) to the health of human recipients. In this study, a risk‐based framework was developed, and expert opinion was elicited to evaluate porcine ...

Human intestinal spirochetosis, irritable bowel syndrome, and colonic polyps: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesJournal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 37, Issue 7, Page 1222-1234, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Human colonic spirochetosis (CS) is usually due toBrachyspira pilosicolior Brachyspira aalborgiinfection. While traditionally considered to be commensal bacteria, there are scattered case reports and case series of gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms in CS and reports of colonic polyps with adherent spirochetes. We performed a systematic review and

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus impacts on gut microbiome in a strain virulence‐dependent fashion

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 15, Issue 3, Page 1007-1016, March 2022., 2022
PRRSV, a porcine respiratory pathogen, indirectly impacts on gut microbiome composition in a strain virulence dependent fashion in association with selected immune markers. Summary Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is a viral disease defined by reproductive problems, respiratory distress and a negative impact on growth rate and ...

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

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Brachyspira hyodysenteriae (B. hyodysenteriae) was identified among the most relevant antimicrobial‐resistant (AMR) bacteria in the EU for swine 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 ...

Ad hoc method for the assessment of animal diseases caused by bacteria resistant to antimicrobials

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2021., 2021
Abstract The European Commission requested EFSA assess antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria responsible for animal transmissible diseases, with a view to listing such pathogens for European Union action. This Scientific Opinion addresses the ad hoc method developed: (i) to give a global state of play as regards resistant animal pathogens that cause ...

Herd diagnosis of low pathogen diarrhoea in growing pigs – a pilot study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: The major indication for antibiotic use in Danish pigs is treatment of intestinal diseases post weaning. Clinical decisions on antibiotic batch medication are often based on inspection of diarrhoeic pools on the pen floor.
