Conservation Management Strategies Shape Glucocorticoid Levels in African Elephant Populations More Than Parasite Load

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Understanding the factors influencing physiological stress is essential for interpreting how wildlife responds to contrasting environmental and management conditions. Across 19 South African elephant populations, we found that smaller reserves, self‐drive tourism, and high elephant density under low vegetation productivity were associated with elevated

Tick‐borne diseases in subtropical dairy farming: The role of calf rearing strategies in antibody and antigen prevalence Enfermedades Transmitidas por Garrapatas en la Ganadería Lechera subtropical: El Papel de las Estrategias de Crianza de Terneros en la Prevalencia de Anticuerpos y Antígenos

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Tropical farmers try to adapt calf‐rearing systems to temperate dairy industry standards. Calves in tick‐infested areas develop stronger immunity to TBD under controlled exposure to ticks. Early tick exposure promotes sustainable management, balancing tick infestation and developing TBD immunity.

STUDY ON THE AGE AT FIRST CALVING AND THE LONGEVITY OF BEEF COWS

Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2006
The age at fi rst calving, the life span and the longevity of cows have great importance in cattle husbandry, especially in beef cow husbandry, because the cost of raising weaned calves depends largely on how early cows calve and how long they remain in production. If cows are productive extendedly and raise more progeny, specifi c costs of raising per

Surgical considerations based on oral and periodontal vascularization

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To synthesize current evidence on vascular and anastomotic patterns, emphasizing their operative implications for optimizing flap perfusion, neovascularization, and wound healing in periodontal and implant surgery, while accounting for anatomical variability and collateral circulation. Materials and Methods A comprehensive review of

Cerebrospinal Fluid Creatine Kinase as a Biomarker in Dogs With Neurologic Disease: A Multivariate Analysis to Guide Future Directions

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Creatine kinase (CK) is typically associated with skeletal muscle injury, but elevated CK in blood or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) may also be reflective of central nervous system damage. Previous research has therefore explored the role of CK as a biomarker of neurologic disease in veterinary patients.

Brucella abortus RB51 Persistent Infection and Milk Shedding in Vaccinated Dairy Cattle: A Public Health Risk

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Brucellosis, caused by a group of bacteria within the genus Brucella, is a zoonotic disease of significant public health concern. The RB51 strain vaccine is used to combat cattle brucellosis but has potential health consequences for exposed humans.

RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN BODY MEASUREMENT OF DAIRY CALVES AT SIX MONTH OF AGES AND AGE AT FIRST CALVING AND MILK PRODUCTION

Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2005
In this research, the relationships of between body measurements such as heart girth, body length, height at withers and chest depth at six month of ages of calves and their age at fi rst calving and the fi rst lactation 305- day milk yield were investigated.

Heat thermotherapy to improve cardiovascular function and cardiometabolic health: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Heat thermotherapy (HT) is reported to promote cardiovascular (CV) and cardiometabolic health benefits. This systematic review and meta‐analysis (CRD42020193669) empirically investigated the efficacy of HT in improving CV and cardiometabolic parameters by assessing responses to single versus multiple HT bouts.
