Study of Prevalence of Preoperative Corneal Astigmatism in Patients with Senile Cataract at a Tertiary Care Institute in South India

Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Background. The prevalence of corneal astigmatism in patients with cataract has not been well documented in both rural and urban areas of Indian population. Purpose. The aim of this study was to assess prevalence of corneal astigmatism before cataract

Genetic Associations of Functional Longevity With Sexual Precocity and Growth Traits in Nellore Beef Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Functional longevity (FL) is a complex trait that integrates many attributes directly contributing to the successful retention and productivity of a cow within the herd. Consequently, improving FL in beef cattle increases herd profitability. This study aimed to estimate the genetic associations between two alternative FL definitions and traits

Arterial Stiffness and Trace Elements in Apparently Healthy Population-A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Stiffening of arteries is a natural ageing process. Any diseases/disorders or risk factors that escalate oxidative stress, microvascular inflammation and endothelial damage may promote to premature vascular stiffening.

Genome scan for postmortem carcass traits in Nellore cattle [PDF]

Journal of Animal Science, 2016
Abstract Carcass traits measured after slaughter are economically relevant traits in beef cattle. In general, the slaughter house payment system is based on HCW. Ribeye area (REA) is associated with the amount of the meat in the carcass, and a minimum of backfat thickness (BFT) is necessary to protect the carcass during cooling.

Genetic Evaluation for Functional Longevity in Nellore Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stayability (STAY) presents limitations in capturing genetic variability among animals with varying calving records up to 76 months of age. Furthermore, because STAY is measured late in life (typically at 6 years of age), it inherently prolongs generation intervals.

Variants at the ASIP locus contribute to coat color darkening in Nellore cattle [PDF]

, 2021
Background: Nellore cattle (Bos indicus) are well-known for their adaptation to warm and humid environments. Hair length and coat color may impact heat tolerance.

Unraveling Biotypes Related to Thermotolerance During Lactation in Maternal‐Line Pigs Through Principal Component and Factor Analyses

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heat stress imposes significant challenges to welfare, health, and productivity of lactating sows due to their limited thermoregulatory capacity and increased metabolic heat load. Genetic selection for improved heat tolerance is a promising yet complex approach, given the large number of biological processes involved in heat stress response ...

Melatonin: A Novel Indolamine in Oral Health and Disease

International Journal of Dentistry, 2012
This paper attempts to summarise the findings accumulated within the last few years concerning the hormone of darkness “melatonin.” Based on its origin, from the pineal gland until recently it was portrayed exclusively as a hormone. Due to its lipophilic
