Molecular detection of pathogens in an equine fever diagnostic panel: 2019–2023

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background A common diagnostic approach for febrile horses is to test for a panel of potential pathogens. Panels are curated by expert opinion and vary between diagnostic laboratories. Objectives To report the results of a newly developed equine fever diagnostic panel (EFDP) between 2019 and 2023 and evaluate the frequency of positive results.

Norovirus Seroprevalence among Adults in the United States: Analysis of NHANES Serum Specimens from 1999–2000 and 2003–2004

Viruses, 2020
Norovirus is the most common cause of epidemic and endemic acute gastroenteritis. However, national estimates of the infection burden are challenging. This study used a nationally representative serum bank to estimate the seroprevalence to five norovirus

Seroprevalence of Q-fever in Algeria [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2009
Q-fever was first described in 1937 by Derrick. It is a zoonosis with a worldwide distribution [1]. The main reservoir of Coxiella burnetii is represented by livestock and domestic animals. Humans are infected essentially through inhaling infectious aerosols at parturition or at slaughter.

Seroprevalence of equine leptospirosis in Poland (2019–2023)

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Leptospirosis in horses is associated with various clinical signs, potentially leading to fatal outcomes. Additionally, the disease may pose a zoonotic risk to individuals involved in handling infected animals. Implementing a serological monitoring programme in the equine population is one of the key tools used to reduce the risk of

Clinical signs, clinical pathology and outcomes in horses infected naturally with equine encephalosis virus

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Equine encephalosis (EE) is caused by an Orbivirus from the family Sedoreoviridae and is thus similar to African horse sickness (AHS) and Bluetongue viruses (BTV). These viruses are transmitted by Culicoides midges. Equine encephalosis can infect horses, donkeys and zebras sub‐clinically while only horses develop clinical disease ...

Seroprevalence of Wenzhou virus in China

Biosafety and Health, 2020
Wenzhou virus (WENV) was first identified in rodents and Asian house shrews in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, China. However, little is known about the prevalence of WENV infections in humans in China. To determine the threat that WENV may pose to humans, we determine the seroprevalence of WENV in healthy individuals in China in this study.
