Investigation of diarrhoea in the neonatal calf
Abstract
DIARRHOEA is very common in the calf and can have an impact both economically and in terms of animal welfare. Losses are due to death, treatment costs and time spent on care, as well as subsequent chronic illthrift and poor growth. While it may be convenient to focus on the principal infectious causes of calf diarrhoea, it is important to remember that it is generally the result of interaction between a number of related risk factors. Mixed infections are frequently seen and clinical signs are usually more severe where more than one pathogen is involved. This article discusses the causative agents and risk factors associated with the development of diarrhoea in the calf and describes an approach to the investigation of clinical disease.

Offering a whey-based diet to calves after a journey or while in transit at an intermediate location would be easier to prepare and avoid the perceived increased risk of precipitating diarrhea associated with offering milk replacer in these circumstances.
“Although milk replacer can be beneficial in providing energy and water, the potential benefit of offering a whey-based diet to calves after a journey or while in transit at an intermediate location (such as a market or calf sorting center) is that it would be easier to prepare and avoid the perceived increased risk of precipitating diarrhea associated with offering calves milk replacer in these c”

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.
