Detecting the footprint of selection on the genomes of Murciano‐Granadina goats
Summary Artificial selection is one of the major forces modifying the genetic composition of livestock populations. Identifying genes under selection could be useful to elucidate their impact on phenotypic variation. We aimed to identify genomic regions targeted by selection for dairy and pigmentation traits in Murciano‐Granadina goats.

Abstract Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) has a substantial, multifaceted impact on patients' health‐related quality of life (HRQoL). Data describing which aspects of ITP physicians and patients perceive as having the greatest impact are limited. The ITP World Impact Survey (I‐WISh) was a cross‐sectional survey, including 1507 patients and 472 physicians,

ABORTO NO INFECCIOSO EN CAPRINOS
Las pérdidas por abortos constituyen la principal falla reproductiva de los caprinos en sistemas extensivos donde se presenta una restricción alimenticia durante la gestación. Los abortos en estas condiciones suelen presentarse en más de la mitad de las cabras gestantes. El alto número de abortos en cabras en condiciones de escasez de forraje obedece a
