Abstract

There are case reports and research manuscripts published involving large ruminant livestock in Malaysia. Till date, there is lack of analyses on the large ruminant studies that were embarked for the past 15 years involving Final Year Projects by Doctor of Veterinary Medicine graduates from 2 Veterinary Faculties, Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) and Universiti Malaysia Kelantan (UMK) in Malaysia. Therefore, this study aims to identify and analyse the trends of infectious and non-infectious caused disease studies involving large ruminant livestock that was carried out in DVM FYP projects and to determine the focal studies at different geographical settings (UPM and UMK). FYP thesis from the year 2006 till 2021 was obtained from the library of UPM and UMK to record the information needed. Total number of FYP studies involving large ruminant diseases in UPM was 68 studies while in UMK only 12 studies. UPM and UMK showed the same trend where the majority of their studies focused on the infectious causes with 91.2% (62/68 studies) and 100% (12/12 studies) respectively. Both veterinary faculties showed similar trends where the majority FYP studies involve reproductive system where UPM and UMK recorded 25/62 (40.3%) and 6/12 (50%) studies respectively. For geographical settings, 44/56 (78.6%) studies in UPM and 1/11 (9.1%) studies in UMK were done in urban areas while 12/56 (21.4%) studies in UPM and 10/11 (90.9%) studies in UMK were done in rural areas. The outcomes from this study will aid the researcher to strategize the upcoming FYP research in ruminant disease subject matter in the future.
