| surveillance of mycoplasma pneumoniae infections in scotland 1986-1991. | mycoplasma pneumoniae is the second most common cause of community-acquired pneumonia. infection is found worldwide and epidemics are said to occur in 4-yearly cycles. in scotland this pattern has been noted since 1982 and, in common with england and wales as well probably as other parts of europe, there is a current epidemic which began in the autumn of 1990. the disease has been noted predominantly in children and young adults, with lower respiratory tract infection as the most common manifest ... | 1992 | 1431178 |

| investigations on a babesia isolated from scottish sheep. | the pathognomic, serologic and morphometric identity of a babesia sp. recently isolated from sheep in argyllshire was studied. initially, problems were encountered due to the occurrence of eperythrozoon ovis as a contaminant of the isolate and treatment with neoarsphenamine failed to remove it. finally, a combination of oxytetracycline therapy and rapid passage allowed isolation of the babesia sp. and its preservation in the form of a glycerolized, infected blood stabilate. inoculation of the st ... | 1981 | 7329723 |
| haemobartonella felis infection in cats from the glasgow area. | a survey of 155 cats for haemobartonella felis infection in the glasgow area revealed a prevalence of 23.2 per cent. the infection occurred in all age groups and there was no significant difference between sex or breed type. infection with h felis was more prevalent among cats with fleas and those with feline leukaemia virus infection than among the other cats in the sample. h felis organisms identified were mainly coccoid with diameters between 0.63 micron and 1.73 micron. rod forms, found in t ... | 1986 | 3787999 |
| infectious agents associated with respiratory disease in pheasants. | in a case-control study of the infectious agents associated with natural outbreaks of respiratory disease in pheasants, 28 batches of birds from sites affected by disease and eight batches of birds from unaffected sites were examined by six veterinary laboratories in england, wales and scotland, and tested for mycoplasmas, other bacteria and viruses. sinusitis was the commonest sign of disease and was associated with mycoplasma gallisepticum as detected by pcr in the trachea (p < 0.05) and conju ... | 2002 | 12054135 |

| keratoconjunctivitis in a hill sheep flock. | keratoconjunctivitis affected many ewes on a large, experimental husbandry, hill farm in early and midwinter in two consecutive years. small sporadic outbreaks occurred among ewes during the following winters and among ewes and lambs in the summer and autumn. mycoplasma conjunctivae was isolated from conjunctival swabs taken from affected sheep. keratoconjunctivitis had not been recognised on the farm before and the infection was probably introduced with purchased rams. prompt treatment prevente ... | 1988 | 3363825 |

| mycoplasma species isolated from harbor porpoises (phocoena phocoena) and a sowerby's beaked whale (mesoplodon bidens) stranded in scottish waters. | mycoplasma species were recovered from 10 cetacean carcasses that stranded around scotland. mycoplasma phocicerebrale was isolated from the lungs of three harbor porpoises (phocoena phocoena) as well as from the liver of one of these animals. novel mycoplasma spp. were isolated from the lungs of five additional harbor porpoises and the kidney of another. in addition an isolate closely related to mycoplasma species 13cl was obtained from the kidney of a sowerby's beaked whale (mesoplodon bidens). ... | 2011 | 21270010 |
| whooping cough in relation to other childhood infections in 1977-9 in the united kingdom. | estimates based upon notifications indicate that there was in the 1977-9 triennium in the united kingdom the largest outbreak of whooping cough for 20 years or more. during this triennium there was also a sharp increase in other infections diseases of childhood, notably in non-notifiable respiratory infections. isolates of certain respiratory viruses ran in parallel and collectively outnumbered those of bordetella pertussis during the period of increase in notifications. there was highly signifi ... | 1981 | 7299339 |

| prevalence of pasteurella multocida and other respiratory pathogens in the nasal tract of scottish calves. | the prevalence of pasteurella multocida, a cause of bovine respiratory disease, was studied in a random sample of beef suckler and dairy farms throughout scotland, by means of a cross-sectional survey. a total of 637 calves from 68 farms from six geographical regions of scotland were sampled between february and june 2008. deep nasal swabs were taken, and samples that were culture-positive for p multocida were confirmed by pcr. prevalence of p multocida was 17 per cent (105 of 616 calves); 47 pe ... | 2010 | 21257416 |
| prevalence of bartonella species, haemoplasmas and toxoplasma gondii in cats in scotland. | the objective of this study was to determine the prevalence rates for select infectious agents of cats presented to the royal (dick) school of veterinary studies at the university of edinburgh, scotland. whole blood, serum, and oral mucosal and nail bed swabs were collected. while ehrlichia species, anaplasma species or rickettsia felis dna were not amplified from any cat, 44.2% of the cats had evidence of infection or exposure to either a bartonella species (15.3% were seropositive and 5.8% pol ... | 2011 | 21570883 |
