Isoniazid Preventive Therapy Adherence and Its Predictors Among Soldiers on HIV Antiretroviral Therapy at a General Military Hospital in Uganda.

Background: Uganda faces a significant dual challenge with tuberculosis (TB), ranking among these countries most affected by the disease worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) for managing latent TB. However, the adherence to IPT in military settings remains under-explored in Uganda.

Article Synopsis
- Human activities, such as deforestation and urbanization, increase the risk of zoonotic diseases by creating conducive environments for wildlife like rodents and wild boar, which can carry infectious agents like coronaviruses.
- A study in Catalonia during the COVID-19 pandemic tested over 500 animals, including rodents and wild boar, for SARS-CoV-2, finding that the majority were negative, indicating low levels of infection.
- The findings suggest that rodents and wild boar played a negligible role in the transmission of COVID-19 in the area, but ongoing surveillance is necessary due to their proximity to humans and the potential for viral mutations.
Dairy farmer, engagement and understanding of One Health and antimicrobial resistance - a pilot survey from the lower north island of Aotearoa New Zealand.

School of Veterinary Sciences, Massey University, Manawatu-Wanganui, Palmerston North, New Zealand.
Background: Reducing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) requires a multidisciplinary One Health approach, which necessitates buy-in from all stakeholders. In Aotearoa New Zealand, where the dairy industry is one of the largest users of antimicrobials, there are ongoing efforts to optimise antimicrobial usage (AMU) to minimise the development of AMR. These include regulations around the veterinary authorisation of the use of antibiotics by farmers without the need for a specific prescription ("the RVM process") and programmes such as the New Zealand Veterinary Association's antibiotic 'Traffic Light System'.

Food-responsive enteropathy (FRE) is the most frequent form of canine chronic inflammatory enteropathy (CIE). It can be diagnosed if, after excluding known causes of diarrhea, clinical signs resolve or significantly improve after an appropriate dietary trial. No universal diet can resolve the clinical signs in every case of FRE, as genetic predisposition and environment (e.

Institute of Infection, Veterinary and Ecological Sciences, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, UK.
Contagious ovine digital dermatitis (CODD) causes a severe, infectious foot disease and lameness of sheep, is common within the UK and is now also emerging in other countries. As well as causing severe animal welfare issues, huge economic losses emerge from the disease due to weight loss/lack of weight gain, and veterinary treatments. CODD lesion progress is measured, with a scoring system from 1 (early lesions) to 5 (healed).
