Prediction of the relationship between body weight and body condition score in sheep
During the whole production cycle it is important to monitor the energy balance and to quantify body reserve changes of the ewes. This can be done, both in experimental settings and in the field, by estimating the body condition score (BCS) of the ewes ...

Relationships Among International Body Condition Scoring Systems [PDF]
Scoring body condition and assessing changes in the body condition of dairy cattle have become strategic tools in both farm management and research. Consequently, body condition score (BCS) is being researched extensively throughout the world. However, international sharing, comparing, and use of data generated are limited because different BCS systems

Body Measurements and Body Condition Scoring in Bactrian Camels
Body measurements were used regularly to describe phenotypes or the weight of the animal. However, few data described the age effect on the different measurements. In the present paper, 477 Bactrian camels (7-180 months old) were measured, and their growth was modelized by using Beta-Growth equation.

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood
ABSTRACT Hypercalcemia of malignancy (HCM) is a rare but life‐threatening metabolic emergency in children that occurs in less than 1% of pediatric cancer cases, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.4% to 1.0% across different studies. While it is observed in 10%–20% of adult malignancies, pediatric HCM remains relatively uncommon.
