TLDR
The main effects of vaccination include less clinical symptoms, lung lesions and medication use, and improved performance, however, bacterins provide only partial protection and do not prevent colonization of the organism.About:

Gunther Antonissen,An Martel,Frank Pasmans,Richard Ducatelle,Elin Verbrugghe,Virginie Vandenbroucke,Shaoji Li,Freddy Haesebrouck,Filip Van Immerseel,Siska Croubels +9 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the current state of knowledge about the impact of Fusarium mycotoxin exposure on human and animal host susceptibility to infectious diseases and indicates possible exacerbation of colibacillosis and salmonellosis in humans, as well.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of measures taken in the EU to reduce the need for and use of antimicrobials in food-producing animals, and the resultant impacts on antimicrobial resistance (AMR).

Relationship between biosecurity and production/antimicrobial treatment characteristics in pig herds
Maria Laanen,Davy Persoons,Stefaan Ribbens,E. de Jong,Benedicte Callens,M. Strubbe,Dominiek Maes,Jeroen Dewulf +7 more
TL;DR: External and internal biosecurity scores were positively associated with daily weight gain and negatively associated with feed conversion ratio of fattening pigs, suggesting that improved biOSEcurity might help in reducing the amount of antimicrobials used prophylactically.

Update on Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae infections in pigs: Knowledge gaps for improved disease control.
TL;DR: The present paper reviews the current knowledge on M. hyopneumoniae infections, with emphasis on identification and analysis of knowledge gaps for optimizing control of the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors associated with pleuritis and cranio-ventral pulmonary consolidation in slaughter-aged pigs.
TL;DR: The objective of the present work was to describe the prevalence of gross lung lesions at slaughter, with a special focus on pleuritis and cranio-ventral pulmonary consolidation, and to identify major risk factors for these lesions.

Diseases of swine.
TL;DR: In this article, the characteristics of a variety of diseases of swine and methods for their prevention and treatment are described, as well as methods to detect and treat these diseases in swine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Biology and Pathogenicity of Mycoplasmas
TL;DR: There is now solid genetic support for the hypothesis that mycoplasmas have evolved as a branch of gram-positive bacteria by a process of reductive evolution and developed various genetic systems providing a highly plastic set of variable surface proteins to evade the host immune system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental reproduction of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in pigs by dual infection with Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and porcine circovirus type 2.
TL;DR: This study indicates that M. hyopneumoniae potentiates the severity of PCV2-associated lung and lymphoid lesions, increases the amount and prolongs the presence of PCv2-antigen, and increases the incidence of PMWS in pigs.

TL;DR: Results indicate that M. hyopneumoniae infection potentiates PRRSV-induced disease and lesions, which is important with respect to the control of respiratory disease in pigs and has implications in elucidating the potential contribution of mycoplasmas in the pathogenesis of viral infections of other species, including humans.

TL;DR: Genomic comparisons revealed that reduction in genome size implied loss of redundant metabolic pathways, with maintenance of alternative routes in different species, and indicated a likely transfer event of hemagglutinin-coding DNA sequences from M. gallisepticum to M. synoviae.
