The same strain of Piscine orthoreovirus (PRV-1) is involved in the development of different, but related, diseases in Atlantic and Pacific Salmon in British Columbia
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): FACETS, Vol 3, Pp 599-641 (2018)
Abstract: Piscine orthoreovirus Strain PRV-1 is the causative agent of heart and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar Linnaeus, 1758). Given its high prevalence in net pen salmon, debate has arisen on whether PRV poses a risk to mi...
Endangered wild salmon infected by newly discovered viruses
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): eLife, Vol 8 (2019)
Abstract: The collapse of iconic, keystone populations of sockeye (Oncorhynchus nerka) and Chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) salmon in the Northeast Pacific is of great concern. It is thought that infectious disease may contribute to declines, but little is kno...
Remember the Drive Home? An Assessment of Emergency Providers’ Sleep Deficit
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Emergency Medicine International, Vol 2018 (2018)
Abstract: Objective. Sleep deprivation decreases work performance and predisposes workers to deleterious health outcomes. We sought to evaluate sleep hygiene and fatigue among emergency physicians. Methods. In March–June 2016, physicians and residents at an acad...
Heart and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) disease diagnosed on a British Columbia salmon farm through a longitudinal farm study.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): PLoS ONE, Vol 12, Iss 2, p e0171471 (2017)
Abstract: Heart and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) is an emerging disease of marine-farmed Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar), first recognized in 1999 in Norway, and later also reported in Scotland and Chile. We undertook a longitudinal study involving health e...
Impact of Salmonid alphavirus infection in diploid and triploid Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) fry.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): PLoS ONE, Vol 12, Iss 9, p e0179192 (2017)
Abstract: With increasing interest in the use of triploid salmon in commercial aquaculture, gaining an understanding of how economically important pathogens affect triploid stocks is important. To compare the susceptibility of diploid and triploid Atlantic salmo...
Open data from the first and second observing runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): SoftwareX, Vol 13, Iss , Pp 100658- (2021)
Abstract: Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo are monitoring the sky and collecting gravitational-wave strain data with sufficient sensitivity to detect signals routinely. In this paper we describe the data recorded by these instruments during their first and secon...
Characterization of a Novel Orthomyxo-like Virus Causing Mass Die-Offs of Tilapia
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): mBio, Vol 7, Iss 2 (2016)
Abstract: ABSTRACT Tilapia are an important global food source due to their omnivorous diet, tolerance for high-density aquaculture, and relative disease resistance. Since 2009, tilapia aquaculture has been threatened by mass die-offs in farmed fish in Israel an...
