ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of incorporating genomic information on the estimation of genetic (co)variance components and the accuracy of breeding values for milk yield under varying thermal environments, and to identify SNPs associated with genes that play significant roles in heat tolerance.

Genetic Evaluation of Beef Sires Using a Beef‐on‐Dairy Crossbred Reference Population
ABSTRACT In recent years, Beef‐on‐Dairy (BoD) crossbreeding programs have gained momentum to enhance dairy cattle's economic and genetic merits while meeting the demand for high‐quality beef. However, bulls with superior growth potential can lead to calving problems; thus, Holstein dairy farmers must decide which semen to use to avoid calving problems ...

A schematic representation of the two‐sample Mendelian randomization framework used to investigate the causal association between circulating leukocyte traits and diabetic retinopathy. ABSTRACT Aims/Introduction Leukocytes are implicated in the inflammatory cascades of diabetic retinopathy (DR), but their causal roles remain ambiguous.

Our study suggests bidirectional causal associations between hypothyroidism and both coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI). Moreover, hypothyroidism contributes to an increased risk of peripheral atherosclerosis (PAS). ABSTRACT Background Whether hypothyroidism and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are causally related remains ...
