An increasing trend in the frequency of comorbid diseases (presence of at least one comorbidity 64.7% in all patients vs 75.0% in hospitalized patients) and IL-1 inhibitor usage (17.6% in all patients vs 50.0% in hospitalized patients) was observed in hospitalized patients.Rates of comorbid diseases and IL-1 inhibitor use for FMF were observed to be increased in FMF patients hospitalized for COVID-19.This study aimed to investigate the fetal mortality, including stillborn piglets (SB) and mummified fetuses (MM), in relation to backfat thickness both at first mating (MBF) and at first farrowing (FBF) in 200 primiparous sows accommodated in a commercial breeding herd in Thailand. Backfat thickness of all pigs was measured at P2 position using an A-mode ultrasonography. Based on MBF, the gilts were classified into four groups MBF1 (≤12.0 mm), MBF2 (>12.0-15.0 mm), MBF3 (>15.0-18.0 mm), and MBF4 (>18.0 mm). According to FBF, the primiparous sows were categorized into four classes FBF1 (≤15.0 mm), FBF2 (>15.0-18.0 mm), FBF3 (>18.0-21.0 mm), and FBF4 (>21.0 mm). At farrowing, 174 litters were examined for percentage of SB and MM. The results indicated that mean MBF and FBF were 16.7 ± 0.3 mm and 19.6 ± 0.3 mm, respectively. Based on MBF, the pigs in MBF1 significantly possessed higher percentage of MM (13.8 ± 4.5%) than others; meanwhile, SB percentage was not different among groups (P > 0.05). According to FBF, the pigs in FBF4 farrowed the highest percentage of SB (9.1 ± 3.2%) than others, whereas MM percentage was not different among classes (P > 0.05). In summary, backfat thickness of the gilts should be one of the parameters to pay more attention since it is related to fetal mortality of the primiparous sows. The farmers should monitor the backfat thickness not only at the first mating time, but also along the gestation period in order to minimize fetal mortality in the primiparous sows.
