Routinely collected sensor data could be used in metritis predictive modeling but a better understanding of its potential is needed. Our objectives were 1) to compare the performance k -nearest neighbors ( -NN), random forest (RF), and support vector machine (SVM) classifiers on detection behavioral patterns associated with events measured by leg-attached accelerometer (TrackaCow, ENGS, Hampshi...

The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the protective efficacy a novel recombinant subunit vaccine containing protein YidR (rYidR) against clinical mastitis (CM) caused by Klebsiella spp. and Escherichia coli. Given that E. coli infection is known cause metritis, we also evaluated effect rYidR vaccination on incidence metritis conception at first artificial insemination. Retained p...

In this session we will take an evidence-based medicine approach to ancillary therapy of bovine respiratory disease, bovine toxic mastitis, bovine neonatal enteric disease, and retained placenta/metritis. The literature reviewed here is not presented as being allinclusive, but rather as a summary of many commonly cited articles on these subjects. The citations are primarily peer reviewed, but s...

The ethics statement on page 4788 should read as follows (corrected text shown in bold): “This study was carried out strict accordance with the recommendations of Animal Welfare Act 1985 (P.L. 99–198). research protocol reviewed and approved by Institutional Care Use Committee Cornell University (protocol number 2015–0085).” authors regret error. Immunization a novel recombinant protein (YidR) ...

Dairy cows have shown a steep increase in milk production, which is unfortunately characterized by a dramatic decline in reproductive performance. In these modern high yielding cows authors worldwide mention a higher number of puerperal problems, such as retained placenta, acute metritis and abnormal vaginal discharge. All of which are known to negatively influence reproductive capacity of thes...

ABST RACT Trueperella pyogenes (formerly Arcanobacterium pyogenes) is a commensal bacterium present on the upper respiratory and urogenital tract mucosa of domestic and wild animals. It is also the most common opportunistic pathogen and isolated from the infections of cattle such as mastitis, metritis, arthritis and pneumonia. The aim of this study was to determine virulence genes (plo, nanH, n...

The objective of this study was to examine the impact of polymorphisms in the acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT1), leptin and growth hormone receptor genes on body energy (body condition score, total body energy content and cumulative effective energy balance) and blood metabolic traits (levels of beta-hydroxybutyrate, glucose and non-esterified fatty acids), measured once before th...
