Access to services and drugs, and practices and knowledge related to antimicrobial resistance, among smallholder pig farmers in Uganda

(Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, 2022) Magnusson, Ulf; Mainack Dione, Michael; Nohrborg, Sandra

To mitigate the development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), antibiotic use (ABU) in the livestock sector needs to be reduced. In low- and middle-income countries, regulations have shown to be less successful in reducing ABU. Here, a bottom-up approach can complement legal frameworks which requires an understanding of the drivers for ABU. In this study, we investigated the influence of geographic and socioeconomic settings on determinants for ABU among pig farmers in Uganda. The data was collected through a questionnaire (containing 75 questions) in two districts, Lira and Mukono, and comparative statistical analyses were performed. Farmers in Lira had lower access to animal health services, applied disease preventive measures less and used antibiotics more. In Mukono, it was more common to consult a veterinarian in response to disease, while it in Lira was more common to consult an animal health worker. There was no difference in how many that followed treatment instructions from a veterinarian, but it was more common in Lira to follow instructions from pharmacies. The findings support the need for locally tailored AMR-reducing interventions to complement regulations. To accomplish this tailoring, systematic collection of knowledge of farm structures, farm practices and access to animal health services and veterinary drugs is necessary.

Antibiotikaanvändning på små och medelstora grisgårdar – grishållares kunskap och agerande i nordöstra Thailand

(SLU, 2020-11) Magnusson, Ulf

Datamaterialet samlades in i Oktober till December 2018 genom strukturella intervjuer med grishållare på små och medelstora grisgårdar i Khon Kaen-provinsen i nordöstra Thailand. Små gårdar kategoriserades som gårdar med färre än 50 suggor medan medelstora gårdar hade mellan 100 och 500 suggor. Frågeformuläret innehöll både flervalsfrågor och öppna frågor. Svaren samlades in med hjälp av mobilapplikationen Open Data Kit (ODK) och exporterades sedan till Microsoft Excel. Sammanlagt intervjuades 164 grishållare. Alla som intervjuades informerades om syftet med datainsamlingen och att deras svar skulle vara anonyma och alla gav sitt medgivande innan intervjun påbörjades. Det huvudsakliga syftet med datainsamlingen var att samla in data om antibiotikaanvändning på grisgårdar av olika intensitetsgrad (d.v.s. små och medelstora) och om grishållarnas kunskap om antibiotikaanvändning och antibiotikaresistens.

Bovina norovirus och nebovirus – prevalens och riskfaktorer för infektion i svenska mjölkkobesättningar

(2022-01) Tråven, Madeleine

Aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of bovine norovirus and nebovirus infections in dairy calves in Sweden. A secondary aim was to analyse herd and management factors associated with these infections. In this study, samples and data collected for another study in 2005-2007 were used. The samples and data were originally collected for studying Cryptosporidium infections. Fecal samples from 5 calves 2-30 days of age were collected by a veterinarian visiting each farm once. For the present study, samples were analysed by RT-PCR for bovine norovirus and nebovirus. For specification of the methods, see the published paper. The management data were collected at the farm visits by observation and interview of farmers using a standardized questionnaire.

Dental home care and dental health in dogs – a questionnaire study among dog owners, veterinarians and veterinary nurses

(SLU, 2020) Enlund, Karolina

Validated questionnaire surveys were distributed to all Swedish dog owners (n = 209,263), veterinarians (n = 3657) and veterinary nurses (n = 1650) with e-mail addresses in the national registry. The response rates were 32% for dog owners and veterinarians, and 38% for veterinary nurses. The survey questions concerned attitudes, opinions and practices regarding dental home care, including whether dog owners received information concerning dental home care or not, and if this information resulted in implementation.
