| rabies surveillance, united states, 1988. | the primary purpose of the annual report on rabies surveillance is to assist local and state public health officials in the planning of rabies control programs and to guide health professionals in evaluating the need for rabies postexposure prophylaxis in patients who are exposed to animals that may be rabid. in 1988, a total of 4,724 cases of animal rabies were reported by 47 states, the district of columbia, and puerto rico, similar to the total (4,729) for 1987. no human cases of rabies were ... | 1989 | 2505046 |
| rabies surveillance in the united states during 1989. | in 1989, 4,808 cases of rabies in animals other than human beings were reported to the centers for disease control, 1.8% more (4,724 to 4,808) than in 1988. eighty-eight percent (4,224/4,808) of those affected were wild animals and 12% (584/4,808) were domestic animals. cases were reported from 49 states, the district of columbia, and puerto rico; hawaii remained rabies-free. skunks (1,657) continued to be the most commonly reported rabid wild animal. for the second consecutive year, more cats ( ... | 1990 | 2276949 |
| a new atypical highly mouse virulent toxoplasma gondii genotype isolated from a wild black bear in alaska. | most strains of toxoplasma gondii isolated in north america and europe are grouped into 3 (types i, ii, iii) genotypes and are considered clonal. recent evidence suggests that illness due to toxoplasmosis in immunocompetent persons may be related to infection with an atypical genotype; these strains are mouse virulent. in the present study, a new mouse-virulent atypical t. gondii genotype was isolated from an asymptomatic black bear ( ursus americanus ) from alaska. the bear had a titer of 1rati ... | 2010 | 20486739 |
| hematology, serum chemistry, and body mass of free-ranging and captive canada lynx in minnesota. | baseline blood chemistry data could be particularly valuable if reference values from free-ranging populations of rare or endangered species are not available. the canada lynx (lynx canadensis) is listed as threatened under the endangered species act in the conterminous united states, even though the species is managed as a furbearer in alaska and in most provinces of canada. body mass, blood chemistry, and hematologic data for free-ranging lynx were collected from 2003 to 2007 and for captive l ... | 2010 | 20090014 |
| rabies surveillance in the united states during 2007. | summary: during 2007, 49 states and puerto rico reported 7,258 cases of rabies in animals and 1 case in a human to the cdc, representing a 4.6% increase from the 6,940 cases in animals and 3 cases in humans reported in 2006. approximately 93% of the cases were in wildlife, and 7% were in domestic animals. relative contributions by the major animal groups were as follows: 2,659 raccoons (36.6%), 1,973 bats (27.2%), 1,478 skunks (20.4%), 489 foxes (6.7%), 274 cats (3.8%), 93 dogs (1.3%), and 57 ca ... | 2008 | 18795848 |

| a comprehensive rabies control program in alaska. | in 1975 the state of alaska initiated a comprehensive rabies control program. lay vaccinators trained and certified by the state provided animal vaccination in rural areas. from 1975 through 1980, 182 persons received post-exposure rabies prophylaxis with human rabies immune globulin (hrig) plus duck embryo vaccine (dev), or human diploid cell vaccine (hdcv), while 2,569 persons initially thought to have been exposed were not treated after consultation, at a cost saving of approximately $3,220,2 ... | 1982 | 7065317 |
| alveolar hydatid disease in minnesota. first human case acquired in the contiguous united states. | a 56-year-old woman from southwestern minnesota underwent an extended left hepatic lobectomy to remove a large multinodular mass with a necrotic central cavity. the clinical, serological, and pathological findings led to the diagnosis of alveolar hydatid disease, and specific identification of echinococcus multilocularis was achieved by growing mature larvas in voles inoculated intraperitoneally with tissue from the hepatic lesions. the patient probably acquired her infection some years previous ... | 1979 | 762867 |
| [genetic structure of the populations of native inhabitants of the northeastern ussr. iv. the koryaks of kamchatka]. | genetic structure of four kamchatka subpopulations (675 individuals) was estimated for 25 erytrocyte and serum systems, some blood groups and for taste sensitivity to ptc. 23 of 38 loci examined are completely monomorphic. these are: ak, ca-1, cat, dia, est1-4, got, g-6-pd, ldh a and b, mdh, pgm2, sod, hb alpha and beta, che1, lap, alb, cp, tf, rh. following allele frequencies were found for polymorphic loci: acpa = = 0.616; acpb = 0.383; acpc = 0.0015; esd1 = 0.882; glo - i1 = 0.156; gpt1 = 0.6 ... | 1985 | 4054618 |
| new records of ticks (acari: ixodidae) from dogs, cats, humans, and some wild vertebrates in alaska: invasion potential. | during 2010-2016, tick specimens were solicited from veterinarians, biologists, and members of the public in alaska. eight species of ticks were recorded from domestic dogs. some ticks were collected from dogs with recent travel histories to other countries or other u.s. states, which appears to explain records of ticks not native to alaska such as amblyomma americanum (l.) (lone star tick), ixodes scapularis (say) (blacklegged tick), and ixodes ricinus (l.). however, we recorded dermacentor var ... | 2016 | 27524823 |
| occurrence and impact of zoonoses in pet dogs and cats at us air force bases. | a descriptive epidemiologic study was conducted to quantitate the occurrence of zoonoses in pet animals (almost exclusively dogs and cats) at 30 air force bases in nine regions of the united states during 1980 and 1981. reviews of reported cases of pet-associated zoonoses in humans at these bases were included. occurrence of a zoonotic disease in dogs and cats was expressed as a ratio of reported cases per 100 rabies vaccinations (cs/crv). overall, the four zoonoses reported most frequently from ... | 1984 | 6496816 |
