Investigation of PRRS Virus Infection in Hungarian Wild Boar Populations during Its Eradication from Domestic Pig Herds.

Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) significantly impacts the pig farming industry globally, leading to economic losses due to reduced productivity. This study focuses on assessing the presence and impact of PRRS within Hungarian wild boar populations amidst efforts to eradicate the virus from domestic pig herds. We used a combination of serological and virological tests on samples collected from wild boars across Hungary to evaluate the prevalence of PRRS virus and its potential transmission risks to domestic pigs.

Transmission Dynamics of Imported Vaccine-Origin PRRSV-2 within and between Commercial Swine Integrations in Hungary.

This study reports on the molecular epidemiology of Ingelvac-PRRS-MLV-associated cases in Hungary for the period 2020-2021. Field epidemiology investigations led the experts to conclude that imported pigs, which were shipped through transit stations in Denmark, introduced the vaccine virus. The movement of fatteners and the neglect of disease control measures contributed to the spread of the virus to PRRS-free pig holdings in the vicinity.

The Impact of PRRS Eradication Program on the Production Parameters of the Hungarian Swine Sector.

Background: The Hungarian national eradication program of PRRS was successfully completed between 2014 and 2022. There were doubts about the efficiency of the eradication program in Hungary from the beginning to the tune that it might only be carried out efficiently through depopulation-repopulation of the infected herds, which is a very costly procedure. In our study, we investigated the impact of the depopulation-repopulation procedure, which played a prominent role in the PRRS eradication program on the productivity of the Hungarian swine sector-namely, on the number of slaughter pigs per sow per year and the total live slaughter weight per sow per year.

Genetic diversity of imported PRRSV-2 strains, 2005-2020, Hungary.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus 2 (PRRSV-2) remains sporadic in Europe. In this study, we investigated the molecular epidemiology of PRRSV-2 infections encompassing 15 years in Hungary. Partial (423 bp long) ORF5 sequences ( = 44) from 20 Hungarian pig herds were analyzed.

Roots of and -Insight into Phenolic Status against Toxicity Level of Trace Elements.

Celery ( L.) and parsley ( (Mill.) Fuss) are herbs utilized in the everyday diet as spices and culinary flavorings, often used in the chemical and medicinal industries.

PRRS eradication from swine farms in five regions of Hungary.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) causes significant losses to the swine industry worldwide, which leads to launching eradication programmes. The PRRS eradication programme in Hungary is based on the territorial principle, and it is obligatory for each swine farm irrespective of the number of animals kept there. Hungary has an exceptionally large herd size in large-scale pig farms.

Eradication of PRRS from backyard swine herds in Hungary between 2012 and 2018.

In the EU Member States with a traditionally significant pig industry, the prevalence of PRRS infections is high. Therefore, the Pig Strategy of the Government of Hungary prioritises eradication of PRRSV in Hungary. For the first time among the EU Member States, a National PRRS Eradication Programme was introduced in order to reach a more efficient, economical and competitive international market position.

PRRSV eradication on large-scale fattening pig farms in Hungary between 2014 and 2019.

Eradication of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) from the pig population of Hungary started in 2014 on the basis of the territorial principle. In order to reach this goal it was crucial to render each fattening unit free of this disease, since fattening units play a significant role in spreading the virus all over the country. In 2015, 188 out of 307 large-scale fattening farms (61.

The Epidemiology of Cholera in Zanzibar: Implications for the Zanzibar Comprehensive Cholera Elimination Plan.

Background: Cholera poses a public health and economic threat to Zanzibar. Detailed epidemiologic analyses are needed to inform a multisectoral cholera elimination plan currently under development.

Methods: We collated passive surveillance data from 1997 to 2017 and calculated the outbreak-specific and cumulative incidence of suspected cholera per shehia (neighborhood).

[Our Doubts regarding the Identification of the Corpse of Louis II King of Bohemia and Hungary].

The coalitioned man-at-arms batallion of Louis II (1516-1526) King of Bohemia and Hungary had crushing defeated by overwhelmingly Turk army of Suleiman (1520-1566) the Magnificent at close to Mohács on 29 August 1526. Louis II and his trusty servant, István Aczél escaped from the losing battle, but both of them drowned into a brook (perhaps a local stream, named Csele) or a swampy fishpond. The one of the Bohemian noble, Ulrich Czettritz von Neuhaus royal court chamberlain was the single eyewitness of this luckless misadventure, furthermore - according to his first verbal report - he failed to help to the King from the sludge.

[Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: the initial experience of the First Surgical Clinic Tg-Mureş. Early and late (after 5-10 month follow-up) results].

Aim: This paper aims to present the initial experience of the I-st Surgery Clinic Târgu Mureş in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, stressing the technical aspects of surgery and postoperative immediate and late results.

Method: Started in 2008, I Surgery Clinic's experience includes 11 cases of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, pursued between 5 and 10 months postsurgery.The group is structured as follows: 80% female, aged between 13 and 55 years, average BMI 46, with limits between 35 and 72.

[Primary, definitive treatment of the nasoethmoidorbital-midface-frontobasal injuries in the maxillofacial practice].

Nasoethmoid-orbital (NEO) fractures are typically resulted by a drastic, forceful blow to the central aspect of the head and nose, associated injuries to adjacent structures occur and involve the midface, anterior cranial fossa and the eye. Dislocated bony parts of the nose may be impacted into the intraorbital region and lead to severe complications: cerebrospinal fluid leak, optic nerve lesion, anosmy, telecanthus and diplopy. In the complex management of the craniofacial lesions, a cooperative team-work of maxillofacial surgeon, neurosurgeon, otolaryngologist and ophthalmologist is required.

[The importance of the I-colic time in colorectal cancer with synchronous hepatic metastases. Specifics of surgical strategy].

Aim: This paper proposes the presentation of a decision-making algorithm in colorectal cancer with synchronous hepatic metastases, as stressing the importance of I-colic time in obtaining the R0 desideratum.

Material And Method: There is no worldwide consensus regarding the surgical attitude in metastatic colorectal cancer. There are some predominantly conservative attitudes which use stenting and neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by periodical re-evaluation or more aggressive surgical treatment.

Therapeutic cloning in Australia: one small stem from man, one giant leap for mankind.

In 2002 the Australian Parliament enacted legislation which prohibited both therapeutic and reproductive embryonic cloning. Just four years later, in December 2006, this same legislation was amended, reversing the prohibition on therapeutic cloning, while retaining the ban on reproductive cloning. The Prime Minister, sensing the political mood, allowed a conscience vote.

The frontobasal traumatic lesions are often combined with several type of midface fractures therefore the authors adopted the craniofacial injury definition. In the years 1995-1997, 534 patients with head trauma were operated on by maxillofacial surgeon and neurosurgeon of which 35 (6.5%) cases showed concomitant combined frontonaso-orbital-skull base involvement.

The authors report on the microsurgery method of the vascularized free fibula flap transplantation for the reconstruction of large segmental mandibular defect. They have established from the literatury data and by their own experience of two cases, that the use of free fibula flap seems to be the best replacement method, when the bone defect is bigger then twelve centimeters.

The authors outline an extraordinary rare case of metastatic mandible carcinoma. The examined patient who earlier had a mastectomy due to breast carcinoma showed signs of the foramen mentale syndrome (numbness, pain, swelling) also on the right side after 5 years. The process of the generalized malignant tumour was first indicated by the mandibula metastatic tumour of the foramen mentale syndrome.
