Immunosuppression in Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome Affected Pigs

Veterinary Microbiology, 2004
The present review concentrates on the clinical, pathological and immunological aspects of pigs suffering from PMWS which strongly suggest that PCV2 may be, in particular conditions, a cause of secondary immunodeficiency in pigs. From a clinical point of view, the lack of antibiotic therapy response against the disease, the existence of a litter effect

Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in Chile

Veterinary Record, 2007
SIR, — Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (pmws) has been reported in most if not all intensive pig-producing countries ([Segales and others 2005][1]). In Chile, the disease was officially recognised during the second semester of 2006 by the Servicio Agricola y Ganadero.

Veterinary Quarterly, 2002
Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome, caused by porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), is a recently described clinical condition which affects nursery and growing pigs. PMWS was initially recognized in Canada in 1991 and nowadays is considered to be worldwide distributed.

Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in pigs in Venezuela

Veterinary Record, 2005
SIR, – Porcine multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) was initially identified and reported in pig herds in Canada a decade ago ([Harding 1996][1]); since then, it has been described worldwide, including Argentina, Brazil and Mexico in Latin America ([Trujano and others 2001][2], [Zanella ...

Outbreak of salmonellosis in pigs with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome

Veterinary Record, 2005
POSTWEANING multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) is an infectious viral disease cause by porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) (Allan and Ellis 2000). It is characterised by progressive weight loss, respiratory signs and jaundice (Clark 1997, Chae 2004). The disease occurs in herds that are usually otherwise in good health.

Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome: A Review of Aetiology, Diagnosis and Pathology

Veterinary Journal, 2004
This review paper concentrates on the aetiology, diagnosis, and pathological aspects of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS). PMWS was first recognized in Canada in 1996 as a new emerging disease which caused wasting in postweaned pigs. Since then, PMWS has been recognized in pigs in many countries.

Clinical and pathological observations on pigs with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome

Veterinary Record, 2001
The aim of this work was to characterise the lesions and agents present in clinically normal and clinically affected pigs on a farm during an outbreak of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMws), and to evaluate the diagnostic techniques for detecting porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV‐2) and other microorganisms.

Reproduction of Lesions of Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome in Gnotobiotic Piglets

Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 1999
Neonatal gnotobiotic piglets were inoculated with tissue homogenates and low- and high-passage cell culture material to determine if the lesions of the newly described porcine postweaning multi-systemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) could be reproduced. For this, 17 3-day-old gnotobiotic piglets were inoculated intranasally with pelleted chloroform-treated ...

Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS) in Sweden From an Exotic to an Endemic Disease

Veterinary Quarterly, 2007
Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) is causally associated with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) infection of pigs. PCV2 was first demonstrated in Swedish pigs in 1993, although the virus was almost certainly present in pigs in the country before that. Despite this, no signs of PMWS were observed in pigs of Sweden until the first outbreak
