Implication

Supports integrated FMD control in endemic livestock; leaves open prospective validation before broader adoption.

Structured PICO

Do various FMD control programs (NSP testing, vaccination, culling) reduce the annual cumulative incidence of FMD in cattle and buffalo in southern Thailand?

P
Population
562,910 native cattle, 33,088 native buffalo, and 89,294 legally transported animals in southern Thailand
I
Intervention
Various foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) control programs including nonstructural protein (NSP) testing, mass vaccination, culling, and their combinations
C
Comparator
Baseline situation (no intervention)
O
Outcome
Estimated annual cumulative incidence (ACI) of FMD

An integrated approach using vaccination, nonstructural protein testing, and culling is the most effective strategy for controlling foot-and-mouth disease in southern Thailand.
