In Colombia, research on Salmonella concerning animal health, veterinary diagnostics, and epidemiology within the primary production chain is limited. This study aimed to analyze the published data about Salmonella in the Colombian primary pig production chain from 2009 to mid-2024. This involved an exploratory literature review using systematic search strategies, including articles, graduate studies, conference presentations, and technical reports from the selected period.

Objective: This study investigated skin tau quantification as a potential biomarker for Huntington's disease and its correlation with disease burden outcomes.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we measured skin tau levels using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 23 Huntington's disease mutations carriers and eight control subjects, examining group discrimination, correlations with genetic markers, clinical assessments, and neuroimaging data.
Prediction of Cognitive Heterogeneity in Parkinson's Disease: A 4-Year Longitudinal Study Using Clinical, Neuroimaging, Biological and Electrophysiological Biomarkers.
Ann Neurol
November 2024
Objective: Cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD) can show a very heterogeneous trajectory among patients. Here, we explored the mechanisms involved in the expression and prediction of different cognitive phenotypes over 4 years.
Methods: In 2 independent cohorts (total n = 475), we performed a cluster analysis to identify trajectories of cognitive progression.
Article Synopsis
- A study conducted in Chiang Mai, Thailand, examined contamination levels of a foodborne pathogen in chicken carcasses from backyard versus commercial slaughterhouses, highlighting the significant health risks and economic impact on poultry production.*
- It was found that backyard slaughter operations had higher contamination levels compared to commercial ones, mainly due to differing slaughtering practices, with effective measures such as chilling shown to reduce bacterial counts significantly.*
- The research recommends that backyard facilities adopt ice-chilling processes and other best practices from commercial operations, like equipment segregation and regular cleaning, to improve food safety and minimize contamination risks.*
Introduction: There are no microbiological regulatory limits for viruses in animal feed and feed ingredients.
Methods: A performance objective (PO) was proposed in this study to manufacture a spray-dried porcine plasma (SDPP) batch absent of any infectious viral particles. The PO levels of -7.
