Abstract

The article focuses on recent research related to cattle health, specifically examining the prevalence of Fusobacterium varium in bovine tissues and its potential role in liver abscesses, the impact of ambient temperature on immune responses to vaccination against Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus (BVDV) and Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis Virus (IBR), and a system dynamics model addressing bovine respiratory disease (BRD) epidemiology and prevention. Findings indicate a high prevalence of F. varium in ruminal and colonic tissues, suggesting invasive potential warranting further study. Ambient temperature (summer vs. fall) did not affect antibody production post-vaccination but influenced specific immune cell populations in Brahman and Brahman-influenced cows. The proposed system dynamics model integrates host, pathogen, and environmental risk factors to simulate BRD outcomes and preventive strategies, highlighting that combined interventions can reduce antimicrobial use and improve profitability in beef production systems.
