Rate of transmission: a major determinant of the cost of clinical mastitis (2013)
Journal Article
Down, P., Green, M. J., & Hudson, C. (2013). Rate of transmission: a major determinant of the cost of clinical mastitis. Journal of Dairy Science, 96(10), https://doi.org/10.3168/jds.2012-6470

The aim of this research was to use probabilistic sensitivity analysis to evaluate the relative importance of different components of a model designed to estimate the cost of clinical mastitis (CM). A particular focus was placed on the importance... Read More about Rate of transmission: a major determinant of the cost of clinical mastitis.

Incidence, causes and outcomes of lameness cases in a working military horse population: a field study (2013)
Journal Article
Putnam, J., Holmes, L., Green, M. J., & Freeman, S. (2014). Incidence, causes and outcomes of lameness cases in a working military horse population: a field study. Equine Veterinary Journal, 46(2), https://doi.org/10.1111/evj.12084

Reasons for performing study: Lameness is a common problem in the horse. Despite this, information on the incidence of lameness in horses in the UK is restricted to studies of lameness in performance horses, racehorses or referral hospital population...

Effect of extended cefquinome treatment on clinical persistence or recurrence of environmental clinical mastitis (2013)
Journal Article
Swinkels, J., Lam, T., Green, M. J., & Bradley, A. J. (2013). Effect of extended cefquinome treatment on clinical persistence or recurrence of environmental clinical mastitis. Veterinary Journal, 197(3), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2013.03.010

The effectiveness of antibiotic treatment of clinical mastitis (CM) is classically evaluated using bacteriological cure, which provides a concise and objective way of assessing efficacy but does not reflect the situation in the field where persistenc...

How does reviewing the evidence change veterinary surgeons’ beliefs regarding the treatment of ovine footrot?: a quantitative and qualitative study (2013)
Journal Article
Higgins, H. M., Green, L. E., Green, M. J., & Kaler, J. (2013). How does reviewing the evidence change veterinary surgeons’ beliefs regarding the treatment of ovine footrot?: a quantitative and qualitative study. PLoS ONE, 8(5), Article 13. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0064175

Footrot is a widespread, infectious cause of lameness in sheep, with major economic and welfare costs. The aims of this research were: (i) to quantify how veterinary surgeons’ beliefs regarding the efficacy of two treatments for footrot changed follo...

Using hormones to manage dairy cow fertility: the clinical and ethical beliefs of veterinary practitioners (2013)
Journal Article
Higgins, H. M., Ferguson, E., Smith, R. F., & Green, M. J. (2013). Using hormones to manage dairy cow fertility: the clinical and ethical beliefs of veterinary practitioners. PLoS ONE, 8(4), Article 9. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0062993

In the face of a steady decline in dairy cow fertility over several decades, using hormones to assist reproduction has become common. In the European Union, hormones are prescription-only medicines, giving veterinary practitioners a central role in t...
