Journal ArticleDOI
Ehrlichioses in Humans: Epidemiology, Clinical Presentation, Diagnosis, and Treatment
TL;DR: Once an ehrlichiosis is suspected on historical and clinical grounds, doxycycline treatment should be initiated concurrently with attempts at etiologic confirmation using laboratory methods such as blood smear examination, polymerase chain reaction, culture, and serologic tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Equine Herpesvirus‐1 Consensus Statement
D.P. Lunn,Nicholas Davis-Poynter,M. J B F Flaminio,David W. Horohov,K. Osterrieder,K. Osterrieder,Nicola Pusterla,Hugh G.G. Townsend +7 more
TL;DR: This consensus statement draws together current knowledge in the areas of pathogenesis, strain variation, epidemiology, diagnostic testing, vaccination, outbreak prevention and control, and treatment of herpesvirus-1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative Real-Time PCR for Detection of Members of the Ehrlichia phagocytophila Genogroup in Host Animals and Ixodes ricinus Ticks
TL;DR: The prevalence of infected free-living ticks, which were collected from areas where bovine ehrlichiosis is endemic and from regions with sporadic occurrences of granulocytic ehrliciosis in dogs and horses, was identical as determined by nested PCR and TaqMan PCR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serologic Cross-Reactivity between Anaplasma marginale and Anaplasma phagocytophilum
Ute M. Dreher,J. de la Fuente,J. de la Fuente,Regina Hofmann-Lehmann,Marina L. Meli,Nicola Pusterla,Katherine M. Kocan,Zerai Woldehiwet,Ueli Braun,G. Regula,K D C Staerk,Hans Lutz +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that cattle, sheep and horses experimentally infected with A. phagocytophilum not only develop antibodies to A.phagocyTophilums, but also to a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of A. marginale (detected by immunofluorescent-antibody assay).
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term outcome associated with intratumoral chemotherapy with cisplatin for cutaneous tumors in equidae: 573 cases (1995-2004).
Alain P Theon,W. David Wilson,K. Gary Magdesian,Nicola Pusterla,Jack R. Snyder,Larry D. Galuppo +5 more
TL;DR: The value of intratumoral chemotherapy with cisplatin for treatment of cutaneous tumors in equidae was confirmed and the results cannot be extrapolated to other formulations of cisPlatin or other protocols that might be used.
