The present study examined serum testosterone and estradiol levels on the day of admission, 5th and on 10th day following acute myocardial infarction in men. Controls were matched for age and body mass index. Testosterone levels were low on the day of admission and remained statistically unchanged on 5th and 10th day as compared to controls. On the contrary, estradiol levels were significantly ...

To evaluate different methods of estimating bovine carcass composition, seventy yearling bulls of the "Asturiana de los Valles" beef breed were slaughtered and their carcass composition estimated by a commercial dissection of the right half-carcass and by tissular dissection of the 6th and 10th rib of the left half-carcass. Correlation and regression analyses were used to identify the most accu...
