Fasting and Refeeding Mediated Phospholipid Remodeling Plays an Important Role in Improving Meat Quality of Aged Laying Hens

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored fasting‐induced physiological remodeling effects on meat quality in aged laying hens. Fasting for 15 days (F15) significantly reduced abdominal fat, intermuscular fat width, subcutaneous fat thickness, and liver index versus pre‐fasting (F0) (p < 0.05), which recovered post‐refeeding.

An Unusual Bilateral Membranous Variant of Triplicate Pitted Pectoralis Major Muscle: A Case Report [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
The variations in the attachments of the pectoralis major not only affect its function but also reflect on its ability to be used as flaps. Membranous origins of this muscle not only add to its stress but also contribute to its inherent tears.
