These results are pertinent to horizontal CWD transmission in wild cervids.
2
The vaccinated and control animals were then challenged orally with CWD-infected brain homogenate.
3
Mice were then challenged intraperitoneally with elk CWD prions.
4
Initial CWD mastoidectomy should be considered in the proper patient population to help decrease healthcare costs.
5
No effective measures are available to control CWD.
6
Increased peri-operative cost was not noted with the initial CWD surgery group for any individual variables examined.
7
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) infects large numbers of deer and elk, with the potential to infect humans.
8
Conclusions: The revision CWD surgery group had increased total cost that could be attributed to the cost of previous surgery.
9
Chronic Wasting Disease Similar to mad cow disease, CWD is carried by deer and elk in 15 states and Canada.
10
Patients were divided into groups that had previous CWU surgery and were undergoing revision CWD and those that were having an initial CWD mastoidectomy.
11
The chimeric virus with the U3 region of the CWD recombinant caused lymphomas more frequently and more rapidly than either of the other two viruses.

These results are pertinent to horizontal CWD transmission in wild cervids.
13
The vaccinated and control animals were then challenged orally with CWD-infected brain homogenate.
14
Mice were then challenged intraperitoneally with elk CWD prions.
15
Initial CWD mastoidectomy should be considered in the proper patient population to help decrease healthcare costs.
16
No effective measures are available to control CWD.
