| an evolving pattern of human hydatid disease transmission in the united states. | echinococcus granulosus infection was being acquired in the contiguous united states by virginia sharecroppers and small-holders by the turn of the century. the last recorded human infection from that general area was diagnosed in 1947. by 1920 human infections were also being acquired in the lower mississippi valley. apparently, infection in both of these areas was maintained chiefly in swine. by 1940 a third transmission area definitely existed in the central valley of california, with its res ... | 1977 | 329700 |
| incidence of antibody for hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus in serums from swine in the united states. | serums prepared from blood collected from swine in arizona, florida, georgia, hawaii, iowa, maine, new hampshire, oregon, vermont, and washington were examined by the hemagglutination-inhibition (hi) test for antibody to hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus (hev). antibody was detected in serums from swine in each of the states except maine, new hampshire, and vermont. the frequency of antibody ranged from 10.9% (6 of 55) with serums from swine in oregon, to 98.6% (71 of 72) with serums from ... | 1975 | 807134 |

| trichinella infection in wildlife of the southwestern united states. | several potential mammalian reservoirs of sylvatic species of trichinella were examined from texas, new mexico, and arizona. during 1998-99, tongues were collected from a black bear (ursus americanus) in arizona; from 9 black bears, a coyote (canis latrans), and a mountain lion (felis concolor) in new mexico; and from 154 coyotes, 32 raccoons (procyon lotor), 13 opossums (didelphis marsupialis), 4 ocelots (leopardus pardalis), 3 bobcats (lynx rufus), and 5 feral hogs (sus scrofa) in southern tex ... | 2001 | 11695403 |
| emergence and re-emergence of vesicular stomatitis in the united states. | vesicular stomatitis (vs) is an important disease of cattle, horses and pigs. the causal agent is an arbovirus; vesicular stomatitis virus (vsv) of which two distinct serotypes new jersey (nj) and indiana (in) have been described. the clinical signs in cattle and pigs are undistinguishable from foot-and-mouth disease (fmd), one of the most devastating viral infections of livestock. vsv is the most important cause of vesicular disease in fmd-free countries in the americas, causing thousands of ou ... | 2002 | 12034487 |
| evaluation of salmonella occurrence in domestic animals and humans in north dakota (2000-2005). | to evaluate the occurrence, serotypes, and antimicrobial susceptibility of salmonellae from domestic animals and humans in north dakota. | 2007 | 18041964 |
| clostridium difficile in retail meat products, usa, 2007. | to determine the presence of clostridium difficile, we sampled cooked and uncooked meat products sold in tucson, arizona. forty-two percent contained toxigenic c. difficile strains (either ribotype 078/toxinotype v [73%] or 027/toxinotype iii [nap1 or nap1-related; 27%]). these findings indicate that food products may play a role in interspecies c. difficile transmission. | 2009 | 19402980 |
| geographic variations, cloning, and functional analyses of the venom acidic phospholipases a2 of crotalus viridis viridis. | geographic venom samples of crotalus viridis viridis were obtained from south dakota, wyoming, colorado, oklahoma, texas, new mexico, and arizona. from these samples, the phospholipases a(2) (pla(2)s) were purified and their n-terminal sequences, precise masses, and in vitro enzymatic activities were determined. we purified two to four distinct acidic pla(2)s from each sample; some of them displayed different inhibition specificities toward mammalian platelets. one of the acidic pla(2)s induced ... | 2003 | 12623078 |
| rabies surveillance in the united states during 2001. | during 2001, 49 states and puerto rico reported 7,437 cases of rabies in nonhuman animals and 1 case in a human being to the centers for disease control and prevention, an increase of < 1% from 7,364 cases in nonhuman animals and 5 human cases reported in 2000. more than 93% (6,939 cases) were in wild animals, whereas 6.7% (497 cases) were in domestic species (compared with 93.0% in wild animals and 6.9% in domestic species in 2000). the number of cases reported in 2001 increased among bats, cat ... | 2002 | 12494966 |
| epidemiological investigation of swine tuberculosis in arizona. | swine tuberculosis occurred in thirteen herds of swine in arizona. mycobacterium avium serotypes 1, 2, 4, 5 and 8 were isolated from tissues of affected animals. these serotypes are responsible for approximately 85% of the mycobacterial infections found in swine in the united states. based on tuberculin skin test responses and examinations of tissues collected at slaughter, the source of infection in at least one of these herds, herd a, was found to be infected sawdust and wood shavings used as ... | 1980 | 7407684 |

| leptospirosis in rodents from an arid environment. | rodents (n = 358) were trapped from 6 locations in arizona, including 2 dairies, 2 swine raising operations, and 2 areas where domestic animal access was limited. isolates of leptospira interrogans serovar ballum were obtained from 3 house mice (mus musculus) trapped in dairies. leptospira were seen in silver-stained kidney sections of 10.4% of the rodents. the usefulness of serologic data in detecting leptospiral infection in these rodents was uncertain because so few animals yielded isolates t ... | 1983 | 6638656 |

| isolations of subgenus 3 salmonellas (arizonas) in cardiff, 1959-1971. | isolations of subgenus iii salmonellas (arizonas) made in the regional public health laboratory, cardiff, between 1959 and 1971 are reviewed. the techniques of isolation are listed for the various materials examined. the necessity of using bismuth sulphite agar as a plating medium is stressed, as some strains might appear on brilliant green macconkey agar as rapid lactose fermenters and be missed. the serotypes isolated in cardiff are discussed with reference to isolations by other authors. the ... | 1973 | 4518347 |

| post-shock chest compression delays with automated external defibrillator use. | in a swine model of out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation (vf) cardiac arrest, we established that automated external defibrillator (aed) defibrillation could worsen outcome from prolonged vf compared with manual defibrillation. worse outcomes were due to substantial interruptions and delays in chest compressions for aed rhythm analyses and shock advice. in particular, the mean interval from first aed shock to first post-shock compressions was 46+/-6s. we hypothesized that the delay from shoc ... | 2005 | 15733755 |
