In a context of nematodicidal resistance, anthelmintic combinations have emerged as a reliable pharmacological strategy to control gastrointestinal nematodes in grazing systems of livestock production. The current work evaluated the potential drug-dr...
In the past, bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) has been suggested to be associated with metritis and endometritis. However, not many field studies investigated the association between BoHV-4 and subclinical endometritis (SCE). In the present study, the a...

Cow routines and behavioral responses are altered substantially following the installation of robot milking. The present study was designed to analyze the effect that switching from milking parlor to automatic milking system (AMS) had on the culling ...
Data on management practices used with automated milk feeders (AMF) are needed to identify factors associated with calf health in these systems. The objectives of this observational, longitudinal, cross-sectional study were to estimate the prevalence...
Fetuin-A (FetA) is a free fatty acid transporter and an acute-phase protein that enhances cellular lipid uptake and lipogenesis. In nonruminants, FetA is involved in lipid-induced inflammation. Despite FetA importance in lipid metabolism and inflamma...
Originally isolated from swine, the proposed influenza D virus has since been shown to be common in cattle. Inoculation of IDV to naïve calves resulted in mild respiratory disease histologically characterized by tracheitis. As several studies have as...

Sequence analyses of pathogen genomes facilitate the tracking of disease outbreaks and allow relationships between strains to be reconstructed and virulence factors to be identified. However, these methods are generally used after an outbreak has hap...
Retained placenta (RP) is a reproductive disorder that causes significant financial losses to the dairy industry. Predicting RP risk in cows post-calving is a challenging task. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive capabilities of five machine ...
Biosecurity practices are the cornerstone of disease prevention and control programs. In Canada, their implementation is evaluated with a Risk Assessment Questionnaire (RAQ). Association Rule Learning (ARL) - a non-supervised machine learning algorit...
