Canine tonsillar polyps: characteristics, classification and review of the pathogenesis (2020)
Journal Article
Molin, J., Vilafranca Compte, M., Suárez-Bonnet, A., Altimira, J., & Ramírez, G. (2020). Canine tonsillar polyps: characteristics, classification and review of the pathogenesis. Veterinary Pathology,

Canine tonsillar polyps are uncommon. We describe 14 tonsillar polyps in dogs and review their classification and pathogenesis. All dogs were adult (3-13 years old). Females (10/14) were more affected than males (4/14). Most of the lesions were asymp... Read More about Canine tonsillar polyps: characteristics, classification and review of the pathogenesis.

Foraging efficiency, social status and body condition in group-living horses and ponies (2020)
Journal Article
Giles, S., Harris, P. A., Rands, S. A., & Nicol, C. J. (2020). Foraging efficiency, social status and body condition in group-living horses and ponies. PeerJ, https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.10305

Individual animals experience different costs and benefits associated with group living, which may impact on their foraging efficiency in ways not yet well specified. This study investigated associations between social dominance, body condition and i... Read More about Foraging efficiency, social status and body condition in group-living horses and ponies.

Parallel evolution in the emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza A viruses (2020)
Journal Article
Escalera-Zamudio, M., Golden, M., Gutiérrez, B., Thézé, J., Keown, J. R., Carrique, L., …Pybus, O. G. (2020). Parallel evolution in the emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza A viruses. Nature Communications, 11(1), 5511. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-19364-x

Abstract: Parallel molecular evolution and adaptation are important phenomena commonly observed in viruses. Here, we exploit parallel molecular evolution to understand virulence evolution in avian influenza viruses (AIV). Highly-pathogenic AIVs evolv...

Dog leucocyte antigen (DLA) class II haplotypes and risk of canine diabetes mellitus in specific dog breeds (2020)
Journal Article
Denyer, A. L., Massey, J. P., Davison, L. J., Ollier, W. E. R., Catchpole, B., & Kennedy, L. J. (2020). Dog leucocyte antigen (DLA) class II haplotypes and risk of canine diabetes mellitus in specific dog breeds. Canine Medicine and Genetics, 7(1), 15. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40575-020-00093-9

Abstract: Background: Canine diabetes mellitus (DM) is a common endocrine disease in domestic dogs. A number of pathological mechanisms are thought to contribute to the aetiopathogenesis of relative or absolute insulin deficiency, including immune-me...

The COVID-19 pandemic, a singular disruptive event in recent human history, has required rapid, innovative, coordinated and collaborative approaches to manage and ameliorate its worst impacts. However, the threat remains, and learning from initial ef... Read More about Reflecting on One Health in Action During the COVID-19 Response.

Control of Brucella melitensis in endemic settings: a simulation study in the Nile Delta, Egypt (2020)
Journal Article
Mohammed Hegazy, Y., Schley, D., Ridler, A., Beauvais, W., Musallam, I., & Guitian, J. (2020). Control of Brucella melitensis in endemic settings: a simulation study in the Nile Delta, Egypt. Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, https://doi.org/10.1111/tbed.13897

Small ruminant brucellosis remains endemic in many low and middle‐income countries (LMICs), where it poses a major economic and public health burden. Lack of resources to support long‐term vaccination, inherent characteristics of small ruminant produ...
