How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Almost every year in Kazakhstan there are outbreaks of anthrax with registration of the disease in farm animals and people. The purpose of the research was to analyze the epizootic situation regarding anthrax in the Republic of Kazakhstan in the period from 2014 to 2023. Analysis of the data showed that in the period from 2014 to 2023, anthrax infection in Kazakhstan was recorded almost annually. The distribution of cases of registration of this infection in different regions of the republic varied significantly. In a number of regions, during the specified period, anthrax infection was recorded once, and in some regions the infection was diagnosed two, three or more times. Studies of blood serum in animals after immunization anthrax vaccine showed that most animals have post-vaccination antibodies, which helps reduce the risk of anthrax in animals and humans and the emergence of a new epizootic anthrax outbreak.
