Generation of swine movement network and analysis of efficient mitigation strategies for African swine fever virus [PDF]
, 2019 Animal movement networks are essential in understanding and containing the spread of infectious diseases in farming industries. Due to its confidential nature, movement data for the US swine farming population is not readily available. Hence, we propose a method to generate such networks from limited data available in the public domain.

Modelling African swine fever virus spread in pigs using time-respective network data: scientific support for decision-makers [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 African Swine Fever (ASF) represents the main threat to swine production, with heavy economic consequences for both farmers and the food industry. The spread of the virus that causes ASF through Europe raises the issues of identifying transmission routes and assessing their relative contributions in order to provide insights to stakeholders for adapted

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 174-180, January 2023., 2023 This cross‐sectional study showed overall sero‐prevalence of 20.5% of PRRSV antibodies in pigs of Nepal with significant association between different districts (p < 0.05) and PRRS prevalence. Based on age groups, highest prevalence was found in age groups of above 18 months (9.4%), followed by 13–18 months age groups (7.7%).

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 191-202, January 2023., 2023 In this study, we supplemented the diet of breeding sows either with omega‐6 (control) or omega‐3 (experimental) polyunsaturated fatty acids and examined their effects on the antioxidant system and hormone levels of the animals. In the blood levels of molecules indicating oxidative stress we experienced slight changes, but the feeding of omega‐3 fatty ...

Non‐Surgical, In‐Stent Membrane Bioelectronics for Long‐Term Intracranial Pressure Monitoring
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This image shows a sequence of long‐term intracranial pressure monitoring using non‐surgical, in‐stent membrane bioelectronics. Abstract Traditional intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring methods, using intraventricular catheters, face significant limitations, including high invasiveness, discrete data, calibration complexities, and drift issues, which

Survey of wild boar hunter interactions with pig farming in central Europe
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 465-470, January 2023., 2023 The study aimed to evaluate the potential role of hunting events in ASF spread in Hungary. The recorded interviews revealed that an extent backyard pig sector and pork production system is operated by the low‐income hunting workers. The findings called attention to the high epidemiologic risk of socioeconomic inequality between different European ...
