The objective of this study was to estimate repeatabilities and heritabilities for measures of pig behavior and their relationship with performance. Measures of behavior and performance included the backtest, resident-intruder test, human approach test (HAT), novel object test (NOT), d 1 BW, backfat depth (BF), loin muscle area (LMA), ADG in the farrowing house, ADG, 21-d BW, and 140-d BW (W). ...

Currently, traffic accidents (TAs) cause the death of more than one million people throughout the world every year,1 causing families to suffer and increasing the costs of healthcare and social security systems.2 For the healthcare sector, TAs are worrisome due to their numbers, their impact on mortality and morbidity (because they affect young age groups with a high number of years of potentia...

We studied the dependence of ocular torsion on eye position during horizontal optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) elicited by random-dot translational motion (tOKN) and prolonged rotation in the light (rOKN). For slow and quick phases, we fit the eye-velocity axis to vertical eye position to determine the tilt angle slope (TAS). The TAS for tOKN was 0.48 for both slow and quick phases, close to what is...
