Serologic and molecular survey for major viral pathogens in grazing hybrid wild boars in Northeast China

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2019
Hybrid wild boar husbandry is an important component of livestock production in Northeast China. However, the current disease situation of these animals is largely unknown due to a lack of disease surveillance.

Prion Diseases as Transmissible Zoonotic Diseases

open access: yesOsong Public Health and Research Perspectives, 2013
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Prion diseases, also called transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), lead to neurological dysfunction in animals and are fatal. Infectious prion proteins are causative agents of many mammalian TSEs, including scrapie (in sheep), chronic wasting disease (in deer and elk), bovine spongiform ...

Household structure and infectious disease transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
One of the central tenets of modern infectious disease epidemiology is that an understanding of heterogeneities, both in host demography and transmission, allows control to be efficiently optimized.

Tuberculosis transmission attributable to close contacts and HIV status, Malawi. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We conducted the first molecular study of tuberculosis (TB) to estimate the role of household contact and transmission from HIV-positive putative source contacts (PSCs) in a high HIV-prevalence area.

Topographic determinants of foot and mouth disease transmission in the UK 2001 epidemic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background A key challenge for modelling infectious disease dynamics is to understand the spatial spread of infection in real landscapes. This ideally requires a parallel record of spatial epidemic spread and a detailed map of susceptible host density ...

Social encounter networks : collective properties and disease transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A fundamental challenge of modern infectious disease epidemiology is to quantify the networks of social and physical contacts through which transmission can occur.

The effect of age and study duration on the relationship between 'clustering' of DNA fingerprint patterns and the proportion of tuberculosis disease attributable to recent transmission. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Though it is recognized that the extent of 'clustering' of isolates from tuberculosis cases in a given population is related to the amount of disease attributable to recent transmission, the relationship between the two statistics is poorly understood ...
