A case-control study on the origin of atypical scrapie in sheep, France.

Emerging infectious diseases - 1 May 2009

Fediaevsky Alexandre, Morignat Eric, Ducrot Christian, Calavas Didier

Abstract excerpt

A matched case-control study (95 cases and 220 controls) was designed to study risk factors for atypical scrapie in sheep in France. We analyzed contacts with animals from other flocks, lambing and feeding practices, and exposure to toxic substances. Data on the prnp genotype were collected for some case and control animals and included in a complementary analysis. Sheep dairy farms had a higher risk for scrapie...
