“…A meta-analysis was published in 2011 comparing the efficacy of PCV2 vaccines at reducing postweaning mortality, which found that vaccination results in an absolute reduction of nursery-finish mortality of 5.4% and reduction of finish mortality of 4.4% ( Kristensen et al, 2011 ). Across field studies identified in this review, the magnitude of impact on absolute mortality associated with PCV2 vaccination ranged from 0% to 24% or up to 75% relative reduction ( Cline et al, 2008 ; Fachinger et al, 2008 ; Horlen et al, 2008 ; Kixmoller et al, 2008 ; Desrosiers et al, 2009 ; Neumann et al, 2009 ; Segales et al, 2009 ; Pejsak et al, 2010 ; Takahagi et al, 2010 ; Jacela et al, 2011 ; Venegas-Vargas et al, 2011 ; Young et al, 2011 ; Fraile et al, 2012 ; Lee et al, 2012 ; Potter et al, 2012 ; Han et al, 2013 ; Heibenberger et al, 2013 ; Sidler et al, 2012 ; Potter et al, 2014 ; Jeong et al, 2015 ; Martelli et al, 2016 ; Villa-Mancera et al, 2016 ; Czyzewska-Dors et al, 2018 ). Herds with high PCV2 antibody titers have been associated with reduced grow-finish performance (combined ADG, G:F, mortality, and carcass weight) compared to herds with lower PCV2 titers ( Fablet et al, 2018 ).…”
