Evaluating economic impacts of water deprivation in humanitarian relief distribution using stated choice experiments

open access: yesInternational Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction, 2018
This paper proposes a methodology to quantify the economic impacts of relief distribution after disasters based on discrete choice models. The research uses stated choice data about preferences for water purchases under different scenarios of deprivation.

Effect of water restriction on drinking behaviour and water intake in German black-head mutton sheep and Boer goats

open access: yesAnimal, 2012
The present study was conducted to evaluate and compare the physiological responses of sheep and goats to water restriction using the deuterium dilution technique (D2O) to predict the total water intake (TWI) in both species.

The effects of water deprivation on the behavior of laying hens.

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2016
Freedom from thirst is one of the most undeniable welfare requirements. Nevertheless, the welfare implication of water deprivation because of a particular situation (e.g., transport) or as an involuntary consequence (e.g., sick, injured, or subordinate ...

Water deprivation drives intraspecific variability in lizard heat tolerance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Quantifying intraspecific variation in heat tolerance is critical to understand how species respond to climate change. In a previous study, we recorded variability in critical thermal maxima (CTmax) by 3 degrees C among populations of small Iberian ...

Vasopressin and oxytocin expression in hypothalamic supraoptic nucleus and plasma electrolytes changes in water-deprived male Meriones libycus

open access: yesAnimal Cells and Systems, 2021
In mammals, plasmatic osmolality needs to be stable, and it is highly related to the hydric state of the animals which depends on the activity of the hypothalamic neurohypophysial system and more particularly by vasopressin secretion.

Evidence-based selection of environmental factors and datasets for measuring multiple environmental deprivation in epidemiological research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This Environment and Human Health project aims to develop a health-based summary measure of multiple physical environmental deprivation for the UK, akin to the measures of multiple socioeconomic deprivation that are widely used in epidemiology.

Food and water deprivation modulating function on activation and direction of behavior in Wistar rats

open access: yes, 2021
The effects of food or water deprivation on the consumption of those commodities has been extensively reported in the literature. The effect of the interaction of those deprivation conditions on food and water consumption and on the temporal organization

INFLUENCE OF FEED AND WATER DEPRIVATION ON PROCESSING WEIGHTS AND YIELDS, COOKING LOSSES AND MEAT COMPOSITION OF DUCK CARCASSES AT 8 & 10 WEEKS OF AGE [PDF]

open access: yesAssiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 1994
SUMMARY The influence of depriving ducks offeed or both feed and water (total deprivation) for 0, 6, 12 and 18h prior to slaughter on live-weight shrinkage, eviscerated carcass yield, ready-to-cook yield, water uptake during chilling, cooked weight ...

The water deprivation test and a potential role for the arginine vasopressin precursor copeptin to differentiate diabetes insipidus from primary polydipsia

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2015
The water deprivation test is the gold standard test to differentiate central or nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (DI) from primary polydipsia (PP) in patients with polyuria and polydipsia. Few studies have addressed the diagnostic performance of this test.

Wistar rats acquire and maintain self-administration of 20% ethanol without water deprivation, saccharin/sucrose fading, or extended access training

open access: yesPsychopharmacology, 2014
Operant self-administration (SA) is an important model of motivation to consume ethanol (EtOH), but low rates of voluntary consumption in rats are thought to necessitate water deprivation and saccharin/sucrose fading for acquisition of responding.
