Estimation of breeding value and genetic trend of Garut sheep and its crossbred
Crossing of Garut (GG) sheep with St. Croix sheep (HH) and Moulton Charollais (MM) resulting HG sheep (♂HH X ♀GG) and MG sheep (♂MM X ♀GG) was done by Indonesian Research Institute for Animal Production.

ABSTRACT Introduction Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) is a neurodegenerative ‘tauopathy’ with predominating pathology in the basal ganglia and midbrain. Caudal tau spread frequently implicates the cerebellum; however, the pattern of atrophy remains equivocal.

Value of MRI Outcomes for Preventive and Early‐Stage Trials in Spinocerebellar Ataxias 1 and 3
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the value of MRI outcomes as endpoints for preventive and early‐stage trials of two polyglutamine spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). Methods A cohort of 100 participants (23 SCA1, 63 SCA3, median Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score = 5, 42% preataxic, and 14 gene‐negative controls) was scanned at 3T up ...

Recursive Estimation of Breeding Values with Categorical Data
Abstract Recursive estimation is a process of sequential updating of parameter estimates when data become available in stages. Bayes' theorem, which describes the accumulation of knowledge about parameters, is used to develop a recursive procedure for estimating breeding values of threshold characters. The likelihood of the data at stage k is combined

Fat distribution in angus steers is related to residual feed intake estimated breeding value
The association between fat distribution and feed efficiency was investigated using Angus steers divergent in residual feed intake (RFI) estimated breeding values (EBV). The 208 steers were fed in a commercial feedlot in NSW for 250 days, entering at 13 –

Implications of avoiding overlap between training and testing data sets when evaluating genomic predictions of genetic merit [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate and quantify the importance of avoiding overlap between training and testing subsets of data when evaluating the effectiveness of predictions of genetic merit based on genetic markers.

Validity of a Wearable Digital Insole for Assessing Gait ON and OFF in Parkinson's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Gait impairment is a distinctive symptom of Parkinson's disease that negatively impact mobility. We assessed the validity of wearable digital insoles against a validated reference gait analysis system for measuring select gait characteristics in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods A comparative analysis between digital insoles
