Large variability in body composition is observed pigs fed and raised similar conditions. Part of this variation might be explained by the feeding behaviour pigs, given its effect on metabolic hormones associated with energy regulation protein metabolism. The objective study was to elucidate relationship examining a new index describing finishing pigs. Feeding information 138 during last 28 d p...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate with Color Doppler the influence of type of delivery, sex, postnatal age and time post feeding on full term healthy newborns cerebral blood flow. METHOD 50 newborns were studied.

The influence of intermittent positive pressure ventilation on gastro-oesophageal reflux in preterm infants is not known. In many neonatal units, however, concern that ventilation may increase gastro-oesophageal reflux (and therefore aspiration) leads to avoidance of enteral feeding during ventilation. We have therefore performed a crossover study of gastrooesophageal reflux by monitoring lower...

A study was conducted to determine the effects of water temperature and rations size on growth performance, feed utilization and carcass biochemical composition of juvenile Benni. Six treatments representing a combination of two water temperature (24 and 28 °C) and three feeding rations (1%, 3% and 5%) were tested with three replicates. Each replicate was stocked with 12 fish (30.66±0.81 g aver...

Childhood is a critical period in the development of obesity. Eating patterns established early in life track into later life. Therefore, parental approaches to feeding in their general parenting style, feeding styles, and specific feeding practices will have a profound impact on how children eat and grow. A systematic research review following PRISMA guidelines was conducted to identify, discu...

Preference value means livestock preference to eat some plants relative to other plants or species. Accordingly, by studying the preference values, the range managers could determine the rangelands grazing capacity to achieve the optimum performance of livestock and to guarantee the stability of rangeland ecosystem. The objective of this study was to determine the preference value of perennial ...
