spp. in Domestic Ruminants, Evaluation of Antimicrobial Resistance Based on the One Health Approach-A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

spp. pose a global threat as a leading cause of foodborne illnesses, particularly prevalent in the European Union (EU), where it remains the second cause of foodborne outbreaks. The emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in spp.

Linkage of routinely collected NHS data to evaluate liaison mental health services: challenges and lessons learned.

Background: Liaison mental health services provide mental health care to patients in acute hospital settings. Evaluation of liaison services is challenging due to their heterogeneous organisation and delivery, high case throughput and varied patient case mix. We aimed to link routinely collected National Health Service data from secondary care settings, chosen for their service characteristics, to data from primary care to evaluate hospital-based liaison mental health services in England.

Experiences of delivering and receiving mental healthcare in the acute hospital setting: a qualitative study.

Background: Recent investment in UK liaison psychiatry services has focused on expanding provision for acute and emergency referrals. Little is known about the experiences of users and providers of these services. The aim of this study was to explore the experiences of users of acute liaison mental health services (LMHS) and those of NHS staff working within LMHS or referring to LMHS.

Evaluation of Claw Lesions in Beef Cattle Slaughtered in Northern Portugal: A Preliminary Study.

Claw diseases have a profound impact on cattle welfare, affecting behaviors such as grazing, rumination, rest, decubitus, and water consumption. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of claw lesions and classify them according to the ICAR Claw Health Atlas (International Committee of Animal Recording) in two slaughterhouses. The influence of claw lesions on carcass weight, classification, and fat deposition was also examined.

Antimicrobial Effects and Antioxidant Activity of L. Essential Oil in Beef Stored under Different Packaging Conditions.

The aim of this study was to assess the antimicrobial effects of myrtle ( L.) essential oil (EO) on pathogenic ( O157:H7 NCTC 12900; Listeria monocytogenes ATCC BAA-679) and spoilage microbiota in beef and determine its minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and antioxidant activity. The behavior of LAB, Enterobacteriaceae, spp.

Behaviour of O157:H7 and in Normal and DFD Beef of an Autochthonous Portuguese Breed.

This study was carried out to identify the behaviour of O157:H7 and of inoculated in Maronesa breed beef with different ultimate pH (pHu) (Normal and DFD), and stored at two different temperatures (4 and 9 °C), during 28 days (pm). The main objective was to illustrate the problematic feature of dealing with beef showing high pHu and stored at mild abusive temperatures (9 °C). Beef steaks (ms.

The Importance of the Slaughterhouse in Surveilling Animal and Public Health: A Systematic Review.

From the point of public health, the objective of the slaughterhouse is to guarantee the safety of meat in which meat inspection represent an essential tool to control animal diseases and guarantee the public health. The slaughterhouse can be used as surveillance center for livestock diseases. However, other aspects related with animal and human health, such as epidemiology and disease control in primary production, control of animal welfare on the farm, surveillance of zoonotic agents responsible for food poisoning, as well as surveillance and control of antimicrobial resistance, can be monitored.

Impact of pre-slaughter factors on welfare of broilers.

Pre-slaughter factors adversely affecting bird welfare were studied at the slaughterhouse. The incidence of dead on arrival (DoA), bruises and dehydration was investigated in 64 different mixed-sex batches of broilers coming from 64 different farms rearing fast-growing genotypes (Ross or Cobb). The effects of catching team, method of catching, time of day for catching and transport, density per cage, transport duration, transport distance, lairage duration and water withdrawal were considered.

The nature and activity of liaison mental services in acute hospital settings: a multi-site cross sectional study.

Background: To describe the clinical activity patterns and nature of interventions of hospital-based liaison psychiatry services in England.

Methods: Multi-site, cross-sectional survey. 18 acute hospitals across England with a liaison psychiatry service.

[Components of matrix support and collaborative mental health care: a narrative review].

Collaborative care between mental health and primary care is effective in improving health outcomes. The matrix support has similarities with collaborative care little explored in the literature. This article compares the two models and analyzes the matrix support from evidence on collaborative care.

Influence of different housing systems on prevalence of keel bone lesions in laying hens.

The present study aimed to investigate the effect of three housing systems (furnished cages - FC, barns - B, and free-range - FR) on the prevalence and severity of keel bone protrusion and deformations. These health and welfare indicators were measured at the slaughterhouse, using a 4-point scale (0 = absence, 1 = slight, 2 = moderate and 3 = severe). Keel bone deformation was also categorized in relation to the presence of compression over the ventral surface, deviation from a 2D straight plane and deviation from the transverse (C-shaped) or median sagittal (S-shaped) plane.
