Bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC) is a common, serious problem in feedlot cattle worldwide. Early diagnosis and outcome prediction are critical for making decisions to prevent economic loss and to limit antimicrobial use. Diagnosing BRDC is commonly based on visual signs and behavioral changes; both assessments are considered to have low diagnostic accuracy. Biomarkers are important for supporting the diagnosis of BRDC, determining the necessity and potential outcomes of treatment, and assisting in research in which differentiating diseased animals is required. There are few reviews summarizing the biomarkers available and utilized. We systematically evaluated the detection and prognostic potential of biomarkers from the literature published between January 1990 and December 2020. We performed a descriptive analysis of 5 biomarker categories: acute-phase proteins, stress-related hormones, other blood biomarkers, omics biomarkers, and non-blood biomarkers. The retrieved articles consisted of studies or trials that assessed the detection value and treatment and/or outcome prediction efficacy of biomarkers for BRDC in feedlot cattle; 23 manuscripts for review and analysis satisfied the selection criteria. Based on our review, we cannot recommend a specific biomarker as the sole method for the early detection or outcome prediction for BRDC, given that the application and efficacy of biomarkers varies in different situations. Our systematic review may serve as a reference for clinical and research investigations of early detection and outcome prediction of BRDC.
