Prevalence of Celiac Disease in China Among High‐Risk Populations: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Digestive Diseases, EarlyView.
Celiac disease (CeD) is an immune‐mediated condition with increasing recognition in China, but its actual prevalence, especially among high‐risk populations, remains unclear. This study provides the first pooled prevalence estimates of CeD among high‐risk populations in China, revealing significant regional variations in both biopsy‐confirmed ...

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

Estimated seroprevalence of Ehrlichia canis in dogs in a remote community in the Northern Territory, Australia

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Background The emergence of Ehrlichia canis in northern Australia in 2020 has reshaped the landscape of tick‐borne diseases in dogs, particularly in rural and remote communities where the brown dog tick (Rhipicephalus linnaei) is endemic. Despite the rapid spread of ehrlichiosis and reported impacts on dog health, its prevalence remains poorly ...

Large‐scale reproductive loss in sheep due to Border disease virus infection, New South Wales, Australia

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Border disease viruses (BDV) and bovine viral diarrhoea viruses (BVDV) are members of the Pestivirus genus in the family Flaviviridae. While BVDV is one of the most significant endemic viral infections of cattle in Australia, BDV infection is generally considered to be uncommon in Australian sheep.
