Evaluating the In Vitro Digestibility of Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens L.) Larvae as Potential Feed Ingredient in Dairy Cattle Silage‐Based Diets: A Focus on Proteins

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dietary protein has a substantial economic impact on cattle feed, and it is also a critical component for animal growth and productivity. Several environmental issues related to soybeans have led to an increased interest in novel protein sources, such as insects.

Combination of In Ovo Nutritional Components Improves Embryonic Development, Growth Performance, and Gut Health in Broiler Chickens

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of intra‐amniotic administration of combined energy, amino acid, and vitamin sources on embryonic development, post‐hatch growth performance, and intestinal health in broiler chickens. On Day 18 of incubation, 460 fertile Ross 308 eggs were allocated to four groups: non‐injected negative control (NC), saline ...

Body Composition, Physical Activity and Energy Requirements Estimated Using Two Isotopic Methods in Old and Adult Beagle Dogs

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Energy requirements (ER) are known to decline as dogs age into the senior stage. However, the implications of body composition and physical activity (PA) on this parameter remain poorly investigated. The aim of this study was to evaluate ER, body composition, water turnover rate (WTR), and voluntary PA by triaxial accelerometers in adults (5.2

Metabolic Adaptations to Weight Loss in Obese Senior Dogs: Effects on Energy Expenditure, Protein Turnover, and Voluntary Physical Activity

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Implications of obesity and weight loss (WL) for energy and protein metabolism are not fully understood, particularly in senior dogs. This study evaluated changes in body composition, energy expenditure (EE), protein turnover (PT), and voluntary physical activity (VPA) in senior dogs in maintenance and after 10% and 20% WL.

Short‐term changes in photographed dental calculus coverage and pooled supragingival microbiota after baked dental treats containing a pomegranate–propolis blend or sodium hexametaphosphate in dogs

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives To compare short‐term changes in the photographed percentage of visible tooth surface covered by pre‐existing dental calculus among dogs receiving additive‐free baked treats, sodium hexametaphosphate‐containing treats or pomegranate–propolis‐containing treats, and to describe pooled supragingival bacterial profiles before and after the ...

Extracting vitalities: Cuts in Indigenous women's bodies‐territories (Brazil)

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, I explore the connections between the medicalization of childbirth and environmental devastation through Guarani‐Mbyá understandings of life and the living. I argue that the cuts made to Guarani‐Mbyá women's vaginas (episiotomies) in Brazilian hospitals are experienced and situated on the same cosmopolitical level as the cuts ...

Selenium Levels in Brazil Nuts: A Global Review of the Literature

Nutrition Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brazil nuts (BN, Bertholletia excelsa, Lecythidaceae) are frequently recommended for increasing selenium intake. Many individuals residing in regions with low soil selenium values, particularly including vegetarians, have selenium intakes below the dietary reference values. A literature review of selenium levels in BN was conducted to estimate

Gold, Glitter‐Like Appearance of a Neonatal Scalp Wound

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This report describes the case of a 2‐month‐old female, born prematurely at 25 weeks as part of a twin gestation, who developed an adhesive‐related traumatic ulcer on the scalp during NICU admission for postnatally acquired cytomegalovirus infection.

Sulphur‐mediated iron homeostasis in four tetraploid wheats (Triticum turgidum L.)

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Polish wheat's tolerance to S limitation enables a well‐orchestrated response for efficient Fe acquisition when S is scarce, involving increased Fe accumulation, enhanced phytosiderophore release, and upregulated TdIRO2 and TdYSL15 expression. Abstract Sulphur (S) deficiency is known to hinder iron (Fe) uptake and distribution in wheat, mainly by ...

Disturbance legacies in arid environments shape recovery of former agricultural land

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Increasingly, arid agricultural land is being permanently taken out of irrigated production due to more frequent drought, higher temperatures, and the overconsumption of groundwater, with important ramifications for ecological recovery.
