Associations Between Thoracic Ultrasound Chute-Side Evaluations and 60-Day Outcomes in Feedyard Cattle at Time of First Treatment for Respiratory Disease

Veterinary Sciences
Accurate prognosis at first treatment for bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is essential for timely interventions and management decisions. This cross-sectional observational study evaluated 819 commercial beef feedyard cattle at chute-side for first BRD ...

Causal analysis of trade loss from pathogens: A global study of foot and mouth disease impacts on meat exports

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Our general interest is in global trade loss from livestock pathogens, specifically exports. We adopt a causal inference approach that considers animal disease outbreaks over time as non‐staggered binary treatments with the potential for switching in (infection) and out of treatment (recovery) within the sample period. The outcome evolution of

Studies on experimental animals immunized with different antigenic vaccine combinations of Neospora caninum of cattle origin

Parasites & Vectors
Background Neospora caninum is an intracellular parasitic protozoon that can infect pregnant animals and cause symptoms such as miscarriage, stillbirth and mummified fetuses. It is one of the main causes of miscarriage in bovines. Apical membrane antigen

Processing Suitability and Flavor Profiles of Wagyu Beef Tallow from Different Anatomical Regions

Molecules
This study investigated the technological properties and volatile flavor profiles of tallow from three anatomical regions of Wagyu cattle, omental fats (OF), perirenal fats (PF), and subcutaneous fats (SF), smelted at temperatures ranging from 100 to 160

The Herfindahl neutral point: A firm‐level threshold for managing market concentration with evidence from US hog packing

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper derives a firm‐level threshold, the Herfindahl Neutral Point, from the standard concentration index used in merger review. At this threshold, a marginal expansion leaves the index unchanged. Firms below the threshold reduce concentration when they expand; firms above it increase concentration.

Canine brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome as a model for studying the effects of obstructive sleep apnea during pregnancy

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We observed a negative effect of brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) in a staggered manner based on the severity of the condition on respiratory and cardiac patterns, glycemia, acid–base balance, fetal growth, and uterine artery hemodynamics, thus requiring adaptations within the fetal–placental unit. Severely affected bitches had uterine

The Oxidation Mechanisms of Saturated Fatty Acids: Formation of Hydroperoxide Isomers and Production of 2‐Alkanones and Lactones

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Saturated fatty acids (SFAs) are generally regarded simply as being resistant to oxidation compared with unsaturated fatty acids. However, it has long been reported that SFAs can undergo oxidation when heated at high temperatures, leading to the formation of unique degradation products such as 2‐alkanones and lactones.
