| الملخص (بالإنجليزية): |
Subclinical mastitis (SCM) is a frequent disease in dairy goats that negatively impact milk quality and yield, leading to substantial economic losses. This cross-sectional study was conducted to estimate the prevalence of SCM and its associated risk factors among dairy goats in western Algeria. The study included 22 farms, and data on risk factors were collected using a questionnaire administered to the farmers. A total of 150 goats, with no clinical signs of mastitis, were randomly selected to determine the prevalence of SCM, using the California Mastitis Test. The Generalised Linear Mixed Model was used to identify the risk factors. The estimated prevalence of SCM was 20.7%. The results of the model indicated that the risk of SCM is significantly higher in does that had dirty udders, raised in unclean barns, were multiparous or in the late stage of lactation. Our findings emphasise the importance of appropriate herd management practices in reducing the prevalence of SCM in dairy goat herds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Croatian): |
Subklinički mastitis (SCM) česta je bolest mliječnih koza koja negativno utječe na kvalitetu i prinos mlijeka, rezultirajući značajnim ekonomskim gubicima. Ova presječna studija provedena je za procjenu prevalencije SCM i s njim povezanih faktora rizika u mliječnih koza u zapadnoj regiji Alžira. U studiju su uključene 22 farme, a podatci o faktorima rizika su prikupljeni pomoću upitnika kojeg su popunili farmeri. Nasumično je izabrano ukupno 150 koza, bez kliničkih znakova mastitisa, da bi se utvrdila prevalencija SCM, uporabom Kalifornijskog mastitis testa (CMT). Generalizirani linearni mješoviti model rabljen je za identifikaciju faktora rizika. Procijenjena prevalencija SCM bila je 20,7 % (95% interval pouzdanosti „95% CI“: 14,2% - 27,2%). Rezultati modela su ukazali da je rizik od SCM značajno veći u koza koje su imale prljavo vime (omjer izgleda (OR) = 1,98; 95% CI: 1,27 – 3,32), koje se uzgajaju u nečistim stajama (OR = 6,65; 95% CI: 1,17 – 9,39), koje su bile multipare (OR = 1,17; 95% CI: 1,06 – 4,12) i koje su bile u kasnoj fazi laktacije (OR = 1,14; 95% CI: 1,02 – 6,72). Naši nalazi naglašavaju važnost prikladnih praksi upravljanja stadom za smanjenje prevalencije SCM u stadima mliječnih koza. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
