Muco-cutaneous candidiasis in two pigs with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome

The Veterinary Journal, 2006
In two distinct commercial swine herds, poor weight gain and an increased number of animals showing wasting were observed among nursery and growing pigs. Cases of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and infection with Haemophilus parasuis had been previously diagnosed in these herds.

Theoretical and Experimental Approaches to Estimate the Usefulness of Pooled Serum Samples for the Diagnosis of Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome.

Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2011
Classical postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) diagnosis is based on postmortem findings (histopathology plus viral detection in lymphoid tissues).

An Exploratory Study on Risk Factors for Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS) in Spain

Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 2005
An exploratory case-control study was carried out in Spain in 2002/2003, involving 62 pig farms of different production systems to assess risk factors that, in association with PCV2 infection, induce postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) expression.

In-situ Hybridization for the Detection of Porcine Circovirus in Pigs with Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 1999
In-situ hybridization with a non-radioactive digoxigenin-labelled probe was used to detect porcine circovirus (PCV) in formalin-fixed paraffin wax-embedded tissues from 10 weaned pigs with naturally occurring postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS).

Spatiotemporal patterns and risks of herd breakdowns in pigs with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome

Veterinary Record, 2007
A retrospective cohort study of 116 British pig farms was undertaken to investigate the epidemiological risk factors associated with herd breakdowns with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome ( pmws ). Farmers reported the pmws status of their herd

Ungulate copiparvovirus 2 in healthy and postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome-affected pigs

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2017
A SYBR Green-based real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was designed to detect Ungulate copiparvovirus 2, also known as porcine parvovirus 4 (PPV4). The test was applied to search for PPV4 DNAemia in sera from 1- to 4-month-old pigs displaying signs of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS), as well as in sera from healthy swine at ...

The Effects of Immuno-modulation on the Clinical and Pathological Expression of Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2002
Post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS), primarily caused by porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2), is an economically important disease of pigs in many countries. A trial was designed to investigate the hypothesis that non-specific immuno-modulation can influence the clinical and pathological expression of PMWS in pigs naturally infected with ...

Antimicrobial use in Danish pig herds with and without postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome

Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 2010
A retrospective cohort study was performed on 130 pig herds in Denmark, to assess the effect of PMWS on the use of antimicrobial drug. The study comprised 65 herds diagnosed with PMWS during 2003-2004, and matched by the veterinary practitioner with 65 herds free from PMWS.

AN OUTBREAK OF PMWS (POSTWEANING MULTISYSTEMIC WASTING SYNDROME) IN CENTRAL ITALY.

2011
we describe the presence of Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) in thirteen pigs necropsied in this Department. Sistemic lymphadenopathy, sometimes haemorrhagic and necrotic, spleen enlarged, thymus atrophic, lungs collapse and consolidated, were the principal gross findings.
