Journal Article
Davies, P., Archer, S. C., Emes, R. D., Bradley, A. J., Leigh, J., & Green, M. J. (2016). Molecular epidemiology of Streptococcus uberis clinical mastitis in dairy herds: strain heterogeneity and transmission. Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 54(1), https://doi.org/10.1128/JCM.01583-15

Multi Locus Sequence Typing was successfully completed on 494 isolates of S. uberis from clinical mastitis cases in a study of 52 commercial dairy herds over a 12 month period. In total, 195 sequence types (STs) were identified. S. uberis mastitis ca...

BestBETs for Vets are generated by the Centre for Evidence-based Veterinary Medicine at the University of Nottingham to help answer specific questions and assist in clinical decision making. Although evidence is often limited, they aim to find, prese... Read More about Benazepril in dogs with asymptomatic mitral valve disease.

Prospective study of the primary evaluation of 1016 horses with clinical signs of abdominal pain by veterinary practitioners, and the differentiation of critical and non‑critical cases (2015)
Journal Article
Curtis, L., Burford, J., Thomas, J. S. M., Curran, M. L., Bayes, T. C., England, G. C., & Freeman, S. (in press). Prospective study of the primary evaluation of 1016 horses with clinical signs of abdominal pain by veterinary practitioners, and the differentiation of critical and non‑critical cases. Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 57(69), https://doi.org/10.1186/s13028-015-0160-9

Background: The majority of research on the evaluation of horses with colic is focused on referral hospital populations. Early identification of critical cases is important to optimise outcome and welfare. The aim of this prospective study was to sur...

MiR137 is an androgen regulated repressor of an extended network of transcriptional coregulators (2015)
Journal Article
Nilsson, E. M., Laursen, K. B., Whitchurch, J., McWilliam, A., Ødum, N., Persson, J. L., …Mongan, N. P. (2015). MiR137 is an androgen regulated repressor of an extended network of transcriptional coregulators. Oncotarget, 6(34), 35710-35725. https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.5958

Androgens and the androgen receptor (AR) play crucial roles in male development and the pathogenesis and progression of prostate cancer (PCa). The AR functions as a ligand dependent transcription factor which recruits multiple enzymatically distinct...

Development of a framework for genotyping bovine-derived Cryptosporidium parvum, using a multilocus fragment typing tool (2015)
Journal Article
Hotchkiss, E. J., Gilray, J. A., Brennan, M. L., Christley, R. M., Morrison, L. J., Jonsson, N. N., …Katzer, F. (2015).

Parasites and Vectors, 8(1), Article 500. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-015-1107-8

Background: There is a need for an integrated genotyping approach for C. parvum; no sufficiently discriminatory scheme to date has been fully validated or widely adopted by veterinary or public health researchers. Multilocus fragment typing (MLFT) ca... Read More about Development of a framework for genotyping bovine-derived Cryptosporidium parvum, using a multilocus fragment typing tool.

The aim of this observational cohort study was to investigate the potential economic effect of sub-clinical Bovine Herpes Virus 1 (BoHV-1) infection in a commercial UK dairy herd in terms of milk yield depression. Infection status of cows (infected... Read More about Reduction in daily milk yield associated with sub-clinical bovine herpes virus 1 infection.

Campylobacter jejuni PflB is required for motility and colonisation of the chicken gastrointestinal tract (2015)
Journal Article
