the study was conducted to demonstrate expression profile of cold shock protein genes; cold inducible rna binding protein (cirp) and rna binding motif protein 3 (rbm3) in goats (capra hircus) during different seasons to check the gene expression in different thermal conditions. blood samples were collected from healthy goats of tropical and temperate region during peak winter, moderate season a...

OBJECTIVE Depression is a common cause of morbidity. Sufferers are very sensitive to many external factors. Emergency department (ED) visits for this condition can be associated with the concentration of ambient air pollutants. The study objective was to examine and assess the associations between ED visits for depression and ambient air pollution. DESIGN AND METHODS The present study analyze...

We show the annual climatology of the diurnal cycle, stratified by opaque cloud, using the full hourly resolution of the Canadian Prairie data. The opaque cloud field itself has distinct cold and warm season diurnal climatologies; with a near-sunrise peak of cloud in the cold season and an early afternoon peak in the warm season. There are two primary climate states on the Canadian Prairies, se...

background : as recently some reported is investigated about relation between cold weather and testicular torsion (tt), so we decided to evaluate this hypothesis risk factor for testicular torsion in our children’s hospital. objectives : the aim of this study is to evaluate the relation between cold weather and testicular torsion in children. methods: from january 2011 todecember 2015 totally h...

In Sapporo city, located in the northern district of Japan, it is very difficult to estimate the time of death of decomposed or skeletonized bodies found outdoors in cold season (November-April) because postmortem changes are markedly retarded in the season compared with warm season (May-October), and the bodies are often damaged and skeletonized by carnivorous animals such as wild dogs and fox...

Air temperature, ground surface temperature (GST; 0 cm at depth), precipitation and freezing depth data at 50 meteorological stations in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP) were analyzed to examine changes of climate and seasonally frozen ground (SFG) in the past 30 years. The latitude, longitude, elevation, mean annual air temperature (MAAT), annual precipitation (AP) and maximum freezing depth at...

in urban areas the world over the past several decades was associated with an exponential growth of population, which led to widespread changes in land use urban and land cover. therefore, in this study, the daily temperature data from 1951 to 2010 at the synoptic station shiraz 60-year period were reviewed. then the average daily temperature average was five days into quintile. results of clus...

field in spawn beds. In autumn, when the canes have matured and are dormant, they are lifted from the beds with roots and placed into cold store. When adequate chilling has been accumulated, the longcanes are brought out of the cold store and planted for cropping under the protection of either polytunnels or glass. Production can either precede the main season, by removing the canes from storag...

The objective of this study was to examine interactions between climatic factors, parity, and weaning-to-first-mating interval (WMI) for total number of pigs born at subsequent parity (TPB) of female pigs serviced during 2 seasons. The present study analyzed records of 27,739 gilts and 127,670 parity records of sows in 95 Japanese herds; the records included females that were serviced between J...
