Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 1970 Of a total of 31,766 pregnancies 465 abortions were reported, in average 1.46 %. By comparison of the frequency of abortion at different times of the year a significantly higher percentage of abortion was found in sows inseminated during the summer months. No significant difference was found between 68 boars as to the frequency of abortion.

Intrauterine growth retarded progeny of pregnant sows fed high protein:low carbohydrate diet is related to metabolic energy deficit. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 High and low protein diets fed to pregnant adolescent sows led to intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR). To explore underlying mechanisms, sow plasma metabolite and hormone concentrations were analyzed during different pregnancy stages and correlated ...

Post-parturient Disorders and Backfat Loss in Tropical Sows in Relation to Backfat Thickness before Farrowing and Postpartum Intravenous Supportive Treatment [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2013 The aim of the present study was to determine the evidence of post-parturient disorders and backfat loss during lactation in sows raised in tropical areas in relation to their backfat thickness before farrowing and postpartum intravenous supportive ...
