The Seroprevalence of Equine Trypanosomosis in the Pantanal [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1999
Since little information is available on the epizootiological status of Trypanosoma evansi in South America and particularly Brazil, we evaluated equine serum samples collected in 1993, 1994, 1995 and 1997 for the presence of antibodies against this trypanosome species. Our study shows corroborative evidence about the correlation among high T.

Equine coronavirus: Investigating seroconversion and faecal shedding patterns in naturally occurring field infections

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Equine coronavirus (ECoV) is an increasingly recognised cause of pyrexia and enteric disease in the horse. Objectives To (1) evaluate if horses seroconvert after clinical ECoV infection and (2) investigate the pattern of faecal excretion of ECoV to determine the optimal testing moment with the overall aim of helping veterinarians in ...

Detection error influences both temporal seroprevalence predictions and risk factors associations in wildlife disease models

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Understanding the prevalence of pathogens in invasive species is essential to guide efforts to prevent transmission to agricultural animals, wildlife, and humans. Pathogen prevalence can be difficult to estimate for wild species due to imperfect sampling

Q fever seroprevalence in Australia suggests one in twenty people have been exposed

, 2020
Q fever (caused by Coxiella burnetii) is thought to have an almost world-wide distribution, but few countries have conducted national serosurveys. We measured Q fever seroprevalence using residual sera from diagnostic laboratories across Australia ...

Hepatitis B Virus Infection Status in Japanese Children Prior to Universal Vaccination: Sustained Effectiveness of Mother‐to‐Child Transmission Prevention and Residual Infection Burden

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the effectiveness of prevention of mother‐to‐child transmission (PMTCT) over 25 years, we conducted a nationwide epidemiological survey through a comprehensive assessment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) markers. Methods Two cohorts were recruited before universal vaccination: children aged 9–10 years undergoing school health ...
