Effect of Body Condition Score on Estrus-Ovulation Synchronization and Pregnancy in Cows and Heifers

Van Veterinary Journal, 2021
The most important factors affecting the success of artificial insemination are the balanced nutrition of the animals and the determination of estrus. Malnutrition causes a decrease in the Body Condition Score (BCS). Low BCS affects the deterioration of the metabolism of cows which has a primary influence on estrus and offspring productivity.

Developing a critical caste analysis within information science and technology: A research review: An Annual Review of Information Science and Technology (ARIST) paper

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Caste—an ascriptive social hierarchy in South Asia and its diaspora—is a globalized phenomenon. Recent caste‐based discrimination, particularly in technology companies and anti‐caste efforts to address it, has compelled academia, policy, and the technology industry to better understand contemporary mechanics of caste.

Rocavorexant, a novel, selective orexin‐1 receptor antagonist: Safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics in healthy adults and individuals with opioid use disorder

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Rocavorexant (INDV‐2000), a selective orexin‐1 receptor antagonist, reduces drug self‐administration and anxiety in nonclinical studies. This Phase 1 programme evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of rocavorexant in healthy volunteers and treatment‐seeking individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD).

Self‐Transcendence and Self‐Enhancement Values as Drivers of Eco‐Travel Behavior. Implications for Business Strategies for Eco‐Tourism Sector

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ecotourism encourages environmentally friendly travel; however, little is known about the underlying value systems influencing travelers' choices and actions. This study uses a mixed‐method methodology that combines post hoc qualitative analysis with a large‐scale quantitative survey to examine the influence of multiple value dimensions on ...

Cow Condition and Reproductive Performance [PDF]

, 2007
It has been understood for decades that reproductive performance is the most important factor affecting production efficiency of a cow-calf enterprise. To maintain a yearly calving interval (one calf every 365 days), a cow must re-breed in 80 to 85 days ...

Effects of forage NDF content and body condition score on forage intake by Holstein–Friesian dairy cows in the dry period

Animal, 2010
This study used individual weekly results for 160 non-lactating Holstein–Friesian dairy cows in the last 5 weeks of gestation to develop regression equations based on forage NDF content and individual body condition score (BCS) for predicting dry matter (

Objective estimation of body condition score by modeling cow body shape from digital images [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 2011
Body condition score (BCS) is considered an important tool for management of dairy cattle. The feasibility of estimating the BCS from digital images has been demonstrated in recent work. Regression machines have been successfully employed for automatic BCS estimation, taking into account information of the overall shape or information extracted on ...
