Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the effects of second litter syndrome (SLS) on the reproductive performance of sows, especially focusing on metrics like piglets born alive (PBA) and farrowing intervals (FI) across up to five reproductive cycles.
- About 47.8% of sows experienced SLS, which significantly decreased their accumulative number of piglets born alive for the first two parities but showed comparable performance in later parities compared to sows without SLS.
- The study concludes that SLS does not significantly harm future reproductive performance, suggesting that sows affected by SLS may not need to be culled, and calls for further research on the underlying mechanisms of PBA fluctuations.
Recent studies have shown that probiotic supplementation during late gestation exerts some beneficial effects on reproductive performance of the sows. This study aimed to investigate effects of QST 713 supplementation in gilts on different reproductive criteria. A total of 94 Camborough-48 gilts at day 85 of gestation were randomly allocated into 2 groups: (1) control diet; (2) control diet + 4 × 10 CFU QST 713 per day.

Methods: We searched electronic databases, consulted the Healthcare Information For All network, hand searched reference lists, ran citation searches of included studies and emailed authors of identified papers. Two reviewers extracted data and appraised quality with relevant tools.
The possible zoonotic diseases transferring from pig to human in Vietnam.
Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis
June 2019
Southeast Asia is considered one of worldwide hotspots consisting many distinct zoonotic infections. With optimal condition for the development of various pathogens, Vietnam is facing serious risks of zoonotic diseases. Besides, more than 50% Vietnamese people settle in rustic areas and earn their livings through small-scale animal breeding.
