Mycoplasma bovis in Respiratory Disease of Feedlot Cattle

Caswell, Jeff L., Bateman, Ken G., Cai, Hugh Y., Castillo-Alcala, Fernanda·2010·Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice

Abstract

Mycoplasma bovis has recently emerged as an important cause of chronic caseonecrotic bronchopneumonia, arthritis, and tenosynovitis in beef cattle. Mycoplasma bovis can act as a primary pathogen, yet many cases are coinfected with other bacteria or viruses, and evidence suggests that M. bovis colonizes and perpetuates lung lesions that were initiated by other bacteria, such as M. haemolytica. Mycoplasma bovis elicits a robust humoral immune response, but the resulting antibodies are not protective because of the variable surface proteins, and vaccines have not yet been shown to prevent disease. Mycoplasma bovis infections are responsible for a high proportion of the chronic disease occurring in feedlots, and the welfare of such animals is an important aspect of feedlot health management.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
