A computer model to predict composition of empty body weight changes in cattle at all stages of maturity.

Journal of Animal Science, 1998
We developed methods to integrate two published models that partitioned gains in empty body weight (EBW) to fat and fat-free matter. These models were based on separate mathematical formulations for growing and mature cattle. We assumed that as cattle grow from birth to maturity a transition would occur at some point in the life cycle from the growing ...

Prediction of body weight and composition in lactating dairy cows: Prediction of empty body weight and carcass weight

Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Science, 2005
Empty body (EB) weight (EBW) is used to estimate the energy and protein requirements for maintenance for dairy cattle. It is predicted from live weight (LW), but the prediction can be influenced by a number of factors, e.g., feed and water intake, pregnancy and body condition.

The effect of compensatory growth in sheep on empty body weight, carcass weight and the weights of some offals

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1976
SummaryThe effects on the body composition of Corriedale wethers of weight loss, compensatory gain and constant body weight are described. Three groups of sheep were grown from 35–63 kg by different paths. The first grew continuously (fedad libitum). The second and third groups lost 20% and 28% of body weight (restricted intake), respectively, from 48 ...

A general method for predicting the weight of water in the empty bodies of pigs

Animal Science, 1995
AbstractAs water is the major component of the pig body its accurate prediction is of importance in pig growth models. It has become conventional to predict the weight of water, WA kg, from the weight of protein, P kg. The purpose of this paper is to find how this can be done across pig genotypes of different mature size.

Gastric Emptying, Body Weight and Symptoms in Primary Anorexia Nervosa

British Journal of Psychiatry, 1993
In a double-blind trial, 12 out-patients with primary anorexia nervosa received, for six weeks, either 10 mg cisapride or placebo, three times a day. Cisapride accelerated gastric emptying of a radiolabelled semisolid meal in all six patients; five gained weight and symptoms of gastric retention ameliorated in four.
