Factors within A Veterinarian-Cattle Farmer Relationship That May Impact on Biosecurity Being Carried out on Farms: An Exploratory Study (2023)
Journal Article
Grant, N., Buchanan, H., & Brennan, M. L. (2023). Factors within A Veterinarian-Cattle Farmer Relationship That May Impact on Biosecurity Being Carried out on Farms: An Exploratory Study. Veterinary Sciences, 10(7), Article 410. https://doi.org/10.3390/vetsci10070410

Veterinarians (vets) appear to be one of the main gateways to biosecurity information for cattle farmers, and therefore are likely to affect the implementation of these measures. The aim of this study was to explore factors within the vet–farmer rela...

Is ingestion of dried grapes more likely to lead to development of acute kidney injury in dogs than ingestion of fresh grapes? (2023)
Journal Article
Downs, J., & Brennan, M. (2023). Is ingestion of dried grapes more likely to lead to development of acute kidney injury in dogs than ingestion of fresh grapes?. Veterinary Record, 192(4), 169-170. https://doi.org/10.1002/vetr.2756

The limited evidence currently available suggests that ingestion of dried grapes (eg, raisins, sultanas, currants) is not more likely to lead to the development of acute kidney injury in dogs than ingestion of fresh grapes.

Journal Article
Crew, C., Brennan, M., & Ireland, J. (2023). Implementation of biosecurity on equestrian premises: A narrative overview. Veterinary Journal, 292, Article 105950. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2023.105950

Biosecurity measures are designed to prevent the introduction and spread of pathogens, and play a vital role in the equine industry, controlling endemic diseases and reducing the threat of exotic disease incursion. Equestrian premises differ with res... Read More about Implementation of biosecurity on equestrian premises: A narrative overview.
