Demography and disorders of German Shepherd Dogs under primary veterinarycare in the UK (2017)
Journal Article
O'Neill, D. G., Coulson, N. R., Church, D. B., & Brodbelt, D. C. (2017). Demography and disorders of German Shepherd Dogs under primary veterinarycare in the UK. Canine Genetics and Epidemiology, 4(7), https://doi.org/10.1186/s40575-017-0046-4

The German Shepherd Dog (GSD) has been widely used for a variety of working roles. However, concerns for the health and welfare of the GSD have been widely aired and there is evidence that breed numbers are now in decline in the UK. Accurate demograp...

Benign Bilateral Adenomyoepithelioma of the Mammary Gland in a Ring-tailed Lemur (Lemur catta) (2017)
Journal Article
Suárez-Bonnet, A., Grau-Bassas, E. R., Herráez, P., Quesada-Canales, O., Priestnall, S. L., & De Los Monteros, A. E. (2017). Benign Bilateral Adenomyoepithelioma of the Mammary Gland in a Ring-tailed Lemur (Lemur catta). Journal of Comparative Pathology, 157(2-3), 85-89. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcpa.2017.06.009

Naturally occurring mammary tumours are uncommon in prosimians. A 20-year-old female ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta) developed bilateral enlargement of the mammary glands. Surgical removal revealed that both masses were comprised of multiple nodules... Read More about Benign Bilateral Adenomyoepithelioma of the Mammary Gland in a Ring-tailed Lemur (Lemur catta).

Eimeria tenella, the causative agent of caecal coccidiosis, is a pathogenic gut dwelling protozoan which can cause severe morbidity and mortality in farmed chickens. Immune mapped protein-1 (IMP-1) has been identified as an anticoccidial vaccine cand...

Drivers for Rift Valley fever emergence in Mayotte: A Bayesian modelling approach (2017)
Journal Article
Métras, R., Fournié, G., Dommergues, L., Camacho, A., Cavalerie, L., Mérot, P., Keeling, M. J., Cêtre-Sossah, C., Cardinale, E., & Edmunds, W. J. (2017). Drivers for Rift Valley fever emergence in Mayotte: A Bayesian modelling approach. PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 11(7), e0005767. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pntd.0005767

Rift Valley fever (RVF) is a major zoonotic and arboviral hemorrhagic fever. The conditions leading to RVF epidemics are still unclear, and the relative role of climatic and anthropogenic factors may vary between ecosystems. Here, we estimate the mos...

Mice lacking NF-κB1 exhibit marked DNA damage responses and more severe gastric pathology in response to intraperitoneal tamoxifen administration (2017)
Journal Article
Burkitt, M. D., Williams, J. M., Townsend, T., Hough, R., & Pritchard, D. M. (2017). Mice lacking NF-κB1 exhibit marked DNA damage responses and more severe gastric pathology in response to intraperitoneal tamoxifen administration. https://doi.org/10.1038/cddis.2017.332

Tamoxifen (TAM) has recently been shown to cause acute gastric atrophy and metaplasia in mice. We have previously demonstrated that the outcome of Helicobacter felis infection, which induces similar gastric lesions in mice, is altered by deletion of...

Economic factors influencing zoonotic disease dynamics: demand for poultry meat and seasonal transmission of avian influenza in Vietnam. Scientific Reports, 7, 5905. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-06244-6

While climate is often presented as a key factor influencing the seasonality of diseases, the importance of anthropogenic factors is less commonly evaluated. Using a combination of methods-wavelet analysis, economic analysis, statistical and disease...
