Outbreak of African Swine Fever, Vietnam, 2019

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
African swine fever is one of the most dangerous diseases of swine. We confirmed the 2019 outbreak in Vietnam by real-time reverse transcription PCR. The causative strain belonged to p72 genotype II and was 100% identical with viruses isolated in China ...

Swine flu panic [PDF]

British Journal of General Practice, 2009
Ever since international public health authorities decided that a small outbreak of flu in Mexico offered a good opportunity to test drive their recently-prepared pandemic flu contingency plans, our local PCT has plunged enthusiastically into scare-mongering mode.1 Daily meetings of senior staff have rubber-stamped national policy, dutifully passing on

Multimodal Locomotion of Soft Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This review comprehensively surveys recent advances in multimodal locomotion within soft robotics. Typical locomotion modes are summarized and categorized. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms enabling multimodal locomotion are discussed and classified into three primary categories: active control‐based, reconfiguration‐based, and environment ...

Multi-omic characterization of allele-specific regulatory variation in hybrid pigs

Nature Communications
Hybrid mapping is a powerful approach to efficiently identify and characterize genes regulated through mechanisms in cis. In this study, using reciprocal crosses of the phenotypically divergent Duroc and Lulai pig breeds, we perform a comprehensive multi-

Genome-wide selection signature analysis identified new candidate genes for the teat number in three distinct strains of Large White pigs

Animal Advances
The number of teats is a critical reproductive trait in sows, exerting a direct impact on the survival rate of weaned piglets. Existing studies on selection signals associated with teat numbers in different strains of Large White pigs are scarce.

Microrobotic Catheterization of the Ophthalmic Artery for Targeted Treatment of Retinoblastoma

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A microrobotic platform is presented that allows teleoperated and autonomous navigation of flow‐driven magnetic microcatheters, MagFlow, into the ophthalmic artery for superselective intra‐arterial infusion of chemotherapy to treat retinoblastoma. Extensive benchtop validations with patient‐derived biomimetic phantoms under optical and fluoroscopic ...

Characterization of inflammatory pseudotumors in a large animal model of liver cancer

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
CT images in arterial and portal venous phases of liver lesions in Oncopig. Abstract Background The development of relevant and robust large animal models of hepatocellular carcinoma is needed to test new therapeutic strategies for this disease. Transgenic approaches hold promise in addressing this complex problem. One such model, the Oncopig, has been

African Swine Fever Virus – Persistence in Different Environmental Conditions and the Possibility of its Indirect Transmission

Journal of Veterinary Research, 2019
Since 2007, African swine fever (ASF) has posed a serious threat to the European swine industry. In Poland, the numbers of reported outbreaks in pigs and affected areas grow every year.

Multimorbidity and animal models

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Multimorbidity, defined as the coexistence of ≥2 chronic conditions, is associated with aging, genetics, and environmental factors. Animal models in multimorbidity research span three tiers: simple organisms for initial screening → rodents for mechanistic analysis → large mammals for clinical prediction.
