Both full and partial cannula options are available on most teat sealant and antibiotic tubes, but little evidence exists to support the selection of one option over the other.Methods: A total of 287 Holstein cows from three UK farms were enrolled in the study. Cows were randomly allocated to receive either full or partial insertion of internal teat sealant at drying off (plus the same insertion type of intramammary antibiotic if required by farm protocols). Somatic cell count and clinical mastitis data were collected, along with lactation number and calving season, and analysed using multivariable regression modelling.Results: Insertion type was not associated with high postcalving somatic cell counts (SCCs; >200k cells/mL), new infection rates (low to high SCC change across the dry period), cure rates (high to low SCC change across the dry period) or clinical mastitis cases.Limitations: Only pedigree Holsteins were included; results in other breeds could differ due to teat size.Conclusion: Insertion type was not associated with high SCC or increased postcalving mastitis cases.","PeriodicalId":23560,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Record","volume":" ","pages":"e5226"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12273530/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143658814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While assessments of human health crisis communication and preparedness have received attention, population animal welfare assessments are limited. This study assessed animal care worker (ACW) survey responses to identify factors potentially valuable for preparedness and intervention design for future crises that affect companion animals.Methods: Our team took a subset of data from a US survey (conducted between July and October 2020) to investigate small animal veterinary (SAV; N = 1209) and animal shelter, rescue and control (SRC; N = 132) COVID-19 pandemic concerns pertinent to animal welfare, self-perceived knowledge of pandemic impacts, and update frequency and information sources.Results: Compared with SAV workers, SRC workers more often reported frequent communication (p < 0.001), self-perceived expert knowledge (p = 0.012) and having welfare concerns (p = 0.012). The same was true for clinical SRC workers, more so than non-clinical SRC. Frequent updates correlated with greater self-perceived knowledge (p < 0.001). Information sources were primarily animal welfare focused for SRC workers and veterinary health focused for SAV.Limitations: Community socioeconomic status and update contents are unknown. Furthermore, sample diversity was low, which may limit the generalisability of the findings.Conclusion: There is a potential need for increased, more harmonised crisis communication from leading public and animal health entities to better support SAV and clinical SRC workers.","PeriodicalId":23560,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Record","volume":" ","pages":"e5498"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144333956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
