Iodine in water on weight gain, diarrhea and oral and dental health of nursery pigs
Iodine supplementation in-water does not affect growth performance in nursery pigs.
Clinical case: Sudden increase in stillborn piglets and suckling pigs mortality
The litter size of the recent and the last farrowing batches was significantly reduced, and the suckling pigs showed an obvious varying weight, condition and viability.
New neonatal porcine diarrhoea: aspects on etiology
The results obtained suggest that E coli not is responsible for NNPD, as also previously concluded.
Effects of plant extracts on diarrhea and intestinal morphology of piglets challenged with E. coli
Plant extracts may reduce diarrhea impact of piglets challenged with E. coli
Clinical case: Necrotizing pneumonia in suckling piglets
In a factory farm located in Mexico an increase in the mortality in the farrowing quarters was seen, and this coincides with temperature and relative humidity increases.
New neonatal porcine diarrhoea: clinical outcome in an affected herd
All litters delivered by gilts were affected by NNPD, but the disease was only recorded in one of 8 litters delivered by four- or five-parity sows.
Zinc oxide–montmorillonite hybrid influences diarrhea, intestinal mucosal integrity, and digestive enzyme activity in weaned pigs
The use of dietary Zn in montmorillonite hybrids for piglet diets improve performance and digestive parameters.
Analysis of the health in the weaners and fattening stages; a different approach (II)
The losses due to diarrhoea problems appear concentrated, basically, during the first week in the weaners stage, whilst in the farms that have not suffered diarrhoea problems, the mortality is distibuted more evenly.
Effect of in-water iodine supplementation on weight gain, diarrhea and oral and dental health of nursery pigs
Adding an aqueous iodine supplement to nursery pigs, therefore, did not provide an advantage for either growth or oral condition. Deleterious oral conditions do increase after weaning, with gingivitis being associated with lower piglet weight.
Analysis of the health status in the weaners and fattening stages; a different approach (I)
We analyze a real case, and we will check out how a partial analysis of the data can give place to erroneous conclusions.
Clinical case: Post-weaning diarrhoea outbreaks in Eastern Europe
The pig farm management team in charge of the post-weaned piglet nursery areas on these wean-to-finish sites has found serious problems with diarrhoea in recent batches of piglets arriving from the breeding farms.
Plant additives as an alternative to feed antimicrobials in the prevention of postweaning diarrhoea in pigs
Both plants, Eugenia and Pterocarya can represent effective alternatives to feed antimicrobials for the use in prevention of PWD in pigs, but further studies are necessary.
New neonatal porcine diarrhoea in Denmark - a clinical description
The aim of this study was to make a clinical description of NNPD and to establish which pathogens are associated with NNPD.
Brachyspira-associated colitis in swine
Two species of Brachyspira are well-recognized pathogens of pigs: B pilosicoli and B. hyodysenteriae. Recently, dysentery-like disease has been reported in association with infection by strongly beta-hemolytic spirochetes which are not identified as B. hyodysenteriae.

When it comes to swine dysentery, an ounce of prevention can save you a ton.
