Utilization of Optical Flow Algorithms to Monitor Development of Tail Biting Outbreaks in Pigs
Animals, 2020 A study was conducted to evaluate activity changes in pigs associated with the development of tail-biting outbreaks using optical flow algorithms. Pigs (n = 120; initial body weight = 25 ± 2.9 kg) housed in four pens of 30 pigs were studied for 13 ...

Is There a Link between Suckling and Manipulation Behavior during Rearing in Pigs?
Animals, 2021 Inadequate possibilities to perform oral manipulation behavior for pigs can lead to misdirection and thus tail biting. Our study aimed to analyze manipulation behaviors of weaner pigs with focus on tail biting and the relationship with agonistic ...

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1883 In the article on the Medical and Surgical Practice of the Aborigines of America, contributed by F. Andros, M.D., and published in your issue of Aug. 4, it is stated that some tribes apply the bruised wild onion for the stings of bees and wasps. I am not aware that any similar practice has been recommended in the literature of our profession, though ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study presents a novel AI‐based diagnostic approach—comprehensive serum glycopeptide spectra analysis (CSGSA)—that integrates tumor markers and enriched glycopeptides from serum. Using a neural network model, this method accurately distinguishes liver and pancreatic cancers from healthy individuals.

The role of circular RNAs in regulating cytokine signaling in cancer
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Cytokines present in the tumor microenvironment fuel cancer development. Aberrant expression of circRNAs contributes to cancer progression. Cytokines are involved in regulating circRNA biogenesis. Furthermore, aberrantly expressed circRNAs regulate the expression of ligands, receptors, and downstream effectors involved in cytokine signaling to promote ...

A Review of the Effects of Non-Straw Enrichment on Tail Biting in Pigs
Animals, 2019 Simple Summary Tail biting, a damaging behaviour that one pig directs at another, causes pain, wounding and health problems. It reduces both pig welfare and market value. Enrichment can reduce tail biting substantially.

Energy dependence of the GAFCHROMIC LD‐V1 in the diagnostic radiographic modalities
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract The GAFCHROMIC LD‐V1 radiochromic film is widely used in dosimetry because it can provide high‐resolution two‐dimensional dose distributions without processing. This study aimed to evaluate the response characteristics at different effective energies, from the low‐energy range of mammography to the high‐energy range of computed tomography. Net

Tail Posture as an Indicator of Tail Biting in Undocked Finishing Pigs
Animals, 2019 Simple Summary Tail biting is a large welfare problem in modern pig production, causing pain and reduced health and production. The identification of tail biting is important for minimising the risk of the escalation of the behaviour and its consequences.
