Domestic pigs in the study of myocardial ischemia

European Heart Journal, 1983
During the last 10 years there has been a growing interest in the use of domestic pigs in the study of various aspects of myocardial ischemia. While most studies are still performed on dogs, a number of scientific and non-scientific (emotional) reasons have led to a shift from the use of the former to that of domestic pigs.

Reston virus in domestic pigs in China

Archives of Virology, 2012
Historically, Reston virus (RESTV) has been found to be associated with outbreaks of disease only in nonhuman primates. Its spread to domestic pigs was reported for the first time in 2008. In this study, we report the discovery, molecular detection, and phylogenetic analysis of Reston virus (RESTV) in domestic pigs in China.

Prevalence of Sarcocystis in domestic pigs in India

Veterinary Parasitology, 1991
Muscle samples from 890 slaughtered pigs were examined for the presence of sarcocysts. A high prevalence rate of 67.98% was observed. Two types of microsarcocysts were recorded. The sarcocyst wall of one type had redial striations and the other possessed hair-like villar protrusions.

Predation by a Herd of Domestic Pigs

American Journal of Forensic Medicine & Pathology
Predation by domestic pigs is unusual but not unheard of. However, predation by a herd of pigs is rare and has not been previously reported in the literature. We present a case report of an individual with predation by a herd of domestic pigs. The case involved a woman who had collapsed from a ruptured saccular aneurysm on her farm. A herd of farm pigs

Enteric caliciviruses in domestic pigs in Hungary

Archives of Virology, 2006
Caliciviruses closely related to human norovirus and sapovirus were recently detected in domestic pigs, causing discussions about the animal reservoir and the potential for zoonotic transmission to humans. To detect porcine caliciviruses, 17 fecal samples collected on two swine farms in southwestern Hungary were tested by reverse transcription ...

PERCUTANEOUS CARDIAC PUNCTURE IN DOMESTIC PIGS

Australian Veterinary Journal, 1977
SUMMARY Blood sampling by percutaneous cardiac puncture was carried put in 69 domestic pigs. The procedure was shown to be safe and to produce reproducible data. The technique can be carried out without anaesthesia. Repeated sampling is possible over minutes, hours or days, and a wide range of sample volumes can be achieved by this technique.

Exploratory Behaviour and Leadership in the Domesticated Pig

British Veterinary Journal, 1973
SUMMARY Observations were made of exploratory behaviour on an outdoor site with five groups of 8 domesticated pigs. There was no correlation between social rank and exploratory behaviour. Six groups of 8 pigs were observed for a total of 26 days on the outdoor site where distinct leaders or initiators could be determined.

Perinatal Ontogeny of Brain Growth in the Domestic Pig

Proceedings of the Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine, 2000
Abstract. The perinatal development of the brain is highlighted by a growth spurt whose timing varies among species. The growth of the porcine cerebrum was investigated from the third trimester of gestation (70 days postconception) through the first 3.5 weeks of postnatal life (140 days postconception).
