Spatiotemporal trends in the discovery of new swine infectious agents
A literature review was conducted to assess the spatiotemporal trend and diversity of infectious agents that were newly found in pigs between 1985 and 2010. We identified 173 new variants from 91 species, of which 73 species had not been previously described in pigs. These new species, of which one third was zoonotic, were taxonomically diverse. They were identified throughout the study period,...

متن کاملChanging pattern of infectious agents in postneurosurgical meningitis
Background: The rates of postneurosurgical infections, particularly meningitis and the most common pathogens have been reported variable during the recent years. The aim of this research was to determine the prevalence of postneurosurgical meningitis and its current spectrum of infectious agent. Methods: In a descriptive study, the postneurosurgical patients’ cerebrospinal fluid was cultured o...
