an abattoir survey of the incidence of pneumonia in saskatchewan swine and an investigation of the microbiology of affected lungs.	the lungs of 15 409 pigs, mostly from saskatchewan, slaughtered at an abattoir were examined over a one year period. the incidence of lesions was 36.7% for "enzootic" pneumonia and 2.1% for pleurisy unassociated with pneumonia. seasonal variations were recorded and compared with the results of similar surveys carried out in australia, belgium and england. mycoplasmological examination of lungs from 347 animals was consistently negative for mycoplasma hyopneumoniae. pasteurella multocida was the ...	1981	7248880

epidemiological study of enzootic pneumonia in dairy calves in saskatchewan.	a field study involving 325 calves from 17 dairy herds in saskatchewan was conducted to determine the risk of enzootic pneumonia and to assess its association with a number of factors. two different case definitions of pneumonia were used in the analyses: the first was based on producers' treatment risk (case1) and the second was based on semimonthly clinical examinations of calves by the research veterinarian (case2). the risk of pneumonia based on case1 was 39% and on case2 was 29%. the measur ...	1993	8269363
