isolation and characteristics of an equine reovirus type 3 and an antibody prevalence survey to reoviruses in horses located in new york state.	reoviruses have been isolated from a number of species including human, bovine, feline, canine and equine. in most species they seem to produce mild to inapparent disease. we have isolated a reovirus type 3 from a foal with diarrhea. the virus designated the ralph strain has been propagated in both the ma-104 and a-72 cell lines. the strain produced cytoplasmic inclusion bodies in these cell cultures. tissue-cultured virus fixed complement in the presence of reovirus antibodies, but failed to do ...	1984	6326376
distribution of multilocus genotypes of escherichia coli within and between host families.	isolates from the intestinal escherichia coli flora of 28 members of five families (including parents, children, and household pets) in amherst, massachusetts, and rochester, new york, were characterized by the electrophoretic mobilities of 12 enzymes to estimate the extent of sharing of strains among associated and unassociated hosts. among the 655 isolates examined, 60 different combinations of electromorphs (electrophoretic types or ets), each representing a distinctive multilocus genotype, w ...	1984	6376625

human antirabies treatment in the united states, 1972.	data were examined on 965 persons treated in six states (delaware, florida, georgia, illinois, north dakota, and south carolina) and new york city in 1972 for possible rabies exposure. males 10-19 years were found to be the group at greatest risk, and exposures occurred most frequently during the warm months. dogs, other domestic animals, and wildlife were about equally responsible for human exposures in the six states, but 99% of the exposures in new york city involved dogs. antirabies postexp ...	1979	432411
an epidemiologic study of the human bite.	the 892 human bites reported to the new york city department of health in 1977 were analyzed by time, place, and the victim's characteristics. the bites appeared to have a seasonality, increasing in march and exceeding the mean monthly average through august. the bite rate for the entire city, 10.7 per 100,000 population, was exceeded in 5 of the 10 brooklyn health districts; one of these districts reported a rate of 60.9 human bites per 100,000 population. most of the bites with identifiable lo ...	1979	515337
[counterpulsation by means of a new device with a pulsatile blood flow in open heart operations (author's transl)].	a new counterpulsation method in operations on an open heart is described. clinical experience in the use of the new device in 124 patients, which also makes it possible to produce a pulsatile flow of blood in the system of extracorporeal circulation, testifies to its effectiveness. the authors claim that the positive changes in cardiac output, diastolic and systolic pressure, and coronary circulation are among the factors which cause an improvement in the final result of the operation in patien ...	1978	682412
the epidemiology and genetics of antibiotic resistance of salmonella typhimurium isolated from diseases animals in new york.	only 12% of 249 strains of salmonella typhimurium isolated during the period 1973-1976 from diseased animals were sensitive to six commonly used antibiotics. isolates from calves exhibited the highest frequency of resistance as well as a steadily increasing frequency of resistance to ampicillin and chloramphenicol. the majority of strains from horses, dogs, and cats were also resistant to more than one antibiotic, a finding which was interpreted as primarily an effect of therapeutic rather than ...	1978	342636
dirofilaria immitis and its potential mosquito vectors in central new york state.	screening of 25,822 dog blood samples indicated approximately a 1% infection rate with dirofilaria immitis. dipetalonema reconditum microfilariae were found in approximately 2% of 1,876 feral dogs examined. laboratory experimentation indicated that 6 of 10 local mosquito species examined allowed successful extrinsic incubation of d immitis. indices of experimental infection indicated aedes triseriatus and anopheles quadrimaculatus were excellent hosts for d immitis, but other factors considered, ...	1977	20828
a communitywide outbreak of giardiasis with evidence of transmission by a municipal water supply.	three hundred fifty residents of rome, new york, had laboratory-confirmed cases of giardiasis between 1 november 1974 and 7 june 1975. a random household survey showed an overall attack rate for giardiasis (defined as a diarrheal illness of 5 days or more) of 10.6%. a significant association was discovered between having giardiasis and using city water and between having illness and drinking 1 or more glasses of water a day. the presence of human settlements in the rome watershed area suggested ...	1977	907241

laboratory studies of a lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus outbreak in man and laboratory animals.	investigation of an outbreak of prolonged febrile illness in medical center personnel at the university of rochester school of medicine and dentistry revealed lymphocytic choriomeningitis (lcm) virus to be the causative agent. syrian or golden hamsters (mesocricetus auratus) were found to be the only animals involved in maintaining the virus and were the source of human infections. isolations of lcm virus were made from autopsy specimens of 13 of 46 (28%) golden hamsters. virus isolations were m ...	1975	1163529
prevalence of dirofilaria immitis in a stray dog population in western new york.	in a survey in 1973 undertaken to determine the prevalence of dirofilaria immitis in 100 dogs from a public pound in western new york, 2 dogs were found to be positive. microfilariae of dipetalonema sp were not present. hearts and pulmonary blood vessels were dissected for adult worms, and blood samples were examined for microfilariae, using a modified knott technique. although adult heartworms and microfilariae have been recovered from wild foxes, coyotes, and wolves in new york, this is the fi ...	1975	1170797
demonstration of antibodies to both hemagglutinin and neuraminidase antigens of h3n2 influenza a virus in domestic dogs.	serologic evidence of infection with human (h3n2) influenza viruses of 6 of 79 dogs sampled in new york city in march-april 1973 was obtained through the use of four different methods for measurement of anti-hemagglutination and anti-neuraminidase antibody.	1975	1235862

histocompatibility studies in a closely bred colony of dogs. 3. genetic definition of the dl-a system of canine histocompatibility, with particular reference to the comparative immunogenicity of the major transplantable organs.	the segregation of the canine dl-a leukocyte group antigen(s) b, c, d, e, f, g, h, k, l, and m has been traced in 141 consecutive matings in the cooperstown colony of beagles. all of the leukocyte antigen(s) were regularly transmitted en bloc from parent to offspring, with no instance of independent segregation. a total of 23 haplotypes, including six different dl-a antigen patterns (gl, bkhfm, bkcd, e, be, fgl) was observed. 31 different dl-a phenotypes were observed in a population of 100 mong ...	1971	4939370
