description: Resting is a fundamental physical need of dairy cattle, and any improvement in stall comfort and resting time may result in improved milk production and decreased incidence of lameness. However, assessing housing facilities for cow comfort potential has proven difficult. To assess free stall utilization and other behaviors, dairy consultants count cows lying, eating or standing. Results are often confusing because of such possible confounding variables as time of feed delivery, milking times, or ambient temperature. This study documented dairy cow behavioral patterns using timelapse photography at a free stall dairy in the central San Joaquin Valley of California to determine the optimum time for visual assessment of free stall usage during hot summer conditions.

description: Naturally occurring cases of clinical mastitis (CM) were studied among J-5 vaccinates or controls on three commercial dairy farms. Measures of clinical severity, milk production change and survival in the herd were evaluated for differences between the two groups. Particularly the study looked at protection against being culled with mastitis as the primary reason, including time-to-event analysis.

description: Somatic cell count (SCC) cure reflects both bacteriological cure and resolution of tissue inflammation. Farmers receive premiums and penalties related to the sale of somatic cells in fluid milk, thus SCC cure has some advantages over other monitors of treatment success or failure. Although pathogen specific patterns of SCC change during clinical mastitis have been well described (de Haas et al, 2002), use of SCC cure in commercial herds has been poorly documented. The objective of this paper was to report on the use of a method to assess clinical mastitis cure using SCC in monthly tested Dairy Herd Improvement Association (DHIA) recorded dairy herds with records of clinical mastitis events.

description: In our previous clinical mastitis study (Ackerman, AABP 2003), 39% of Escherichia coli intamammary infections persisted more than 21 days. Since E. coli is isolated from less than 20% of clinical cases, persistent E. coli infections make up less than 10% of clinical mastitis cases. A protocol that includes treatment of all cows to address these persistent infections is neither practical nor cost-effective. Currently, many larger farms are not treating E. coli mastitis with antibiotic therapy. However, these infections can be serious and painful with a persistent high milk somatic cell count. In herds where milk from clinical mastitis cases is cultured and pathogens identified before treatment, use of antibiotics for E. coli infections may be both practical and costeffective. These E. coli cases meet the AMDUCA criteria for extra-label treatment of an infection that threatens the animal's well-being and does not respond to approved intramammary antibiotics. In this study, we evaluated two antibiotic treatments for their effect on persistent E. coli infections.

Percutaneous coronary intervention in stable angina (ORBITA): a double-blind randomised controlled trial
Creators: name: Al-Lamee, Rasha Kadem
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is widely believed to reduce angina in stable coronary artery disease but this has never been tested in a blinded randomised controlled trial. Such a study design exposed another highly credible therapy, renal denervation for hypertension, to be far less efficacious than unblinded evidence suggested. The results of Simplicity HTN3 study highlighted the placebo effects of interventional procedures, and there is increasing recognition for the need for placebo-controlled studies to investigate the effects of interventional therapies. The evidence for PCI in stable coronary artery disease in the reduction of myocardial infarction and mortality remains uncertain. The remit of coronary intervention in this setting may primarily be to offer symptom relief and improvement in quality of life. However, the clinical effects of PCI for these goals will be contributed to by both a true physical and a placebo component. The magnitude of the placebo-controlled effect of PCI on symptoms and exercise capacity has never been tested before. In order to scientifically address this question a double blind trial of coronary angioplasty versus a placebo procedure in patients with stable coronary artery disease was required. I designed, conducted and led the first placebo-controlled trial of PCI in stable coronary artery disease. In this thesis I will present the primary and secondary outcomes from the Objective Randomised Blinded Investigation with optimal medical Therapy of Angioplasty in stable angina (ORBITA) trial. I will also present the results of subsequent analyses stratifying the results of ORBITA by pre-randomisation invasive physiology using fractional flow reserve and instantaneous wave-free ratio and by pre-randomisation dobutamine stress echocardiography score. The results of this trial may have far-reaching consequences for the management of stable angina.

Heifer Development
Creators: name: Larson, R. L.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2000

description: Replacement heifer development is a critically important area for veterinarians to offer production medicine advice to their beef-producing clients. Productivity for beef cattle herds has been shown to increase when a high percentage of heifers become pregnant early in the first breeding season.55 A producer's heifer development program should result in most heifers in the replacement pool reaching puberty at least 42 days prior to the start of breeding because the conception rate to first service is lower on the pubertal estrus compared to the third estrus.14,80 Many producers put additional pressure on heifers to reach puberty at a young age by breeding them 3 to 4 weeks earlier than the mature cow herd. The stress of calving is greater on heifers than older cows, and more likely accompanied by calving difficulty. Thus, breeding replacement heifers essentially one heat cycle earlier than the mature cows allows the producer to concentrate on the heifers at calving. In addition, the length of time from calving to the resumption of cycling is longer in heifers than in cows.98 Therefore, calving heifers earlier than mature cows gives the heifers the extra time they need to return to estrus and be cycling at the start of the subsequent breeding season. In order for heifers to reach puberty by 12 to 13 months of age they must receive adequate nutritional intake to signal the body that the "luxury" of reproduction is attainable. Once puberty is attained, nutrition must be at a level that allows the heifer to continue cycling, ovulate a viable oocyte, and establish pregnancy. Nutritional demands of heifers during pregnancy exceed that of mature cows because the heifer is partitioning nutrients for her own growth as well as fetal growth and development. This increased demand for nutrients continues through early lactation, when the beef female has her highest nutritional requirements. Deficiency of energy or protein for extended periods in any production phase during the first two and one-half years of life will impact negatively on fetal development, calf viability, milk production and/or rebreeding for the next pregnancy.

Management of Spayed Heifers
Creators: name: Rupp, Gary P.
name: Hamilton, Edward D.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2000

description: The practice of spaying (ovariectomizing) heifers that are destined for market has been used by cattle producers in the United States for more than 100 years. The primary reason for spaying has been to prevent pregnancy during the two- or three-year growing phase of heifer development under range conditions. Another reason for spaying is related to the controlling infectious disease in cattle by preventing market heifers from becoming breeding stock when sold. Despite many changes in the beef cattle industry, these reasons remain valid today and provide a continuous source of spayed heifers that increases and decreases with the cattle cycle because of price differentials between market heifers and steers. The interest in spaying heifers has led to several trials (measuring gain, feed efficiency, carcass characteristics, and other performance parameters) designed to compare spayed heifers with their intact (nonspayed) counterparts. This column provides an overview of important findings that can be useful in making management decisions regarding growing and finishing spayed heifers.

Management of Pregnant Heifers in the Feedlot
Creators: name: MacGregor, Scott
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2000

description: Pregnant heifer management is a challenge to the feeding industry. Pregnant heifers represent a loss to the feedyard in numerous areas. Most packing plants don't mind pregnant heifers because they are buying the cattle on a grade and yield basis, and they get the fetal calf serum, which they sell for $25.00 to $110.00 per liter. Therefore when management strategies are evaluated, all of these areas need to be considered. If the last two decades of experience have taught us anything, pregnancy testing on arrival and the judicious use of abortifacients will generate the most cost-effective program.

An Informed Veterinarian can Help Clients Profit from the Cattle Cycle
Creators: name: Hughes, Harlan
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2000

description: The cattle cycle is the single most important force impacting your clients' beef cow profits. The alternative "booms and busts" associated with the cattle cycle have long been of great concern to beef cow producers. Always the question arises as to why the beef industry cannot maintain a sustainable growth in animal numbers that would prevent the economic booms and busts associated with the cattle cycle. Much of the year to year variation in beef prices is driven by cattle numbers (i.e., beef supply). The cattle cycle is the single most important force determining beef supply and cattle prices. AB cattle numbers go up, beef prices go down. As cattle numbers go down, beef prices go up. It is almost that simple.1 If we can predict cattle cycles, then we should be able to predict beef price cycles. If we can predict beef price cycles, then we should be able to identify production strategies that will allow your beef cow clients to profit from the cattle cycle. When your beef cow clients profit from the cattle cycle, your veterinary practice will also profit from the cattle cycle.

description: Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) remains as the most serious infectious disease problem in stocker and feedyard operations. The 1991 economic impact has been estimated to be $624 million.9 Major advances have been made in respiratory vaccines, pharmaceuticals and management systems, however, the problem remains. It seems likely that a major obstacle to reducing respiratory disease is the reluctance of many segments of the beef industry to adopt technology and practice management systems known to reduce disease incidence.

description: Machado-Joseph disease (MJD) is a fatal neurodegenerative condition denoted by progressive loss of muscle control and movement. MJD is caused by inheritance of a CAG repeat expansion within the ATXN3 gene, resulting in abnormal formation of ataxin-3 protein aggregates within the brain. A pre-clinical study identified gut microbiome changes in MJD mice before the onset of neurological impairment. While changes in the brain-gut-microbiome axis may contribute to MJD development, this remains largely unexplored.
We investigated whether colonic function changes in MJD and whether it occurs with or before gut microbiome and motor changes. Male and female transgenic MJD mice and wild-type controls were examined at pre-symptomatic (4, 5 and 7 weeks) and early-onset (9, 11 and 13 weeks) disease stages. Colonic and motor function was examined alongside neurological and behavioural health. The faecal microbiome was profiled using amplicon sequencing. Male MJD mice demonstrated significantly different microbiome communities by 5 weeks, faster gut transit by 9 weeks, impaired motor function by 11 weeks, and increased faecal output at 13 weeks compared to male WT controls. Our work suggests colonic dysfunction occurs after microbiome changes but before motor changes in MJD, which could serve as a MJD prognostic marker and treatment target.
Corn Silage And Haylage Variability Within Bunker Silos

description: Forages, and haylages in particular, have a large potential for variation. Variability in dry matter, fiber levels and fermentation profiles within a silo can influence herd performance and animal health. Degree of variation at a given dairy depends largely on its ability to manage cropping and harvesting systems. One advantage that bunker silos have over upright silos and bags is that ensiled feed from a given load or field is spread over a larger area of the silo. Thus, changes in forage dry matter (DM) or chemical measurements occur more gradually than in other storage systems. However, variation can still occur across the height of a silo. To estimate this potential variation, eleven corn silage and nine haylage bunker silos from nine dairies located in central New York were evaluated.

description: Ketosis is a common calving-related disorder affecting dairy cows during the transition period. Subclinical ketosis is characterized by serum β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) levels > 1000 to 1400 μmol/L. The highest incidence of subclinical ketosis occurs within the first two to three weeks oflactation. The Ketolac® test (Nagoya, Japan) is designed for detection of BHB in milk. Therefore, it is a practical tool for diagnosing subclinical ketosis in early postpartum dairy cows. If prevention is not considered during the transition period, cows will be at higher risk of developing ketosis. Monensin is an ionophore that affects rumen fermentation, resulting in increased propionic acid production with a concurrent decrease in the molar proportion of acetate and butyrate. As a result, monensin has been used to prevent ketosis and calving-related disorders in dairy cattle. It is hypothesized that dairy cows supplemented with monensin and fed diets containing citrus pulp would experience a decreased incidence of subclinical ketosis. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to determine the effect of a monensin controlled-release capsule applied at dry-off on the proportion of cows with concentrations of milk BHB > 200 μmol/L, and to associate these findings with the concentration of serum BHB at 14 d postpartum in Holstein dairy cows fed diets containing citrus pulp.

description: Subclinical ketosis in dairy cattle can lead to economic losses through decreased milk production, decreased reproductive performance, increased risk of displaced abomasum and increased risk of clinical ketosis. For early detection of the disease, there is a need for rapid and accurate diagnostic tests. The objective of the study was to evaluate the performance of three cow-side diagnostic tests for the detection of subclinical ketosis in fresh dairy cows, compared to the gold standard serum β-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA). The cow-side tests were: (1) a commonly used test strip detecting acetoacetate in urine (Ketostix, Bayer Corporation, Elkhart, Indiana, USA), (2) a commonly used powder test used on milk, also detecting acetoacetate (KetoCheck, Great States Animal Health, St. Joseph, Missouri, USA), and (3) a milk test strip detecting BHBA (KetoTest, Sanwa Kagaku Kenkyusho Co. Ltd., Nagoya, Japan, distributed by Elanco Animal Health/Provel, Guelph, Ontario, Canada).

description: During early lactation, dairy cows undergo a phase of negative energy balance which may lead to metabolic disorders and subsequent losses in production. To help reduce this, ionophores may be administered. Administration of monensin controlled-release capsules (CRC) prior to calving improves energy balance, while choline aids in fat metabolism and transport. Choline may be a limiting nutrient in lactating dairy cows. The objective of this study was to determine whether there is an interection between these two supplements on metabolic parameters and milk production.

description: The transition period in dairy cows (three weeks before and after calving) is characterized by tremendous physiological and metabolic changes. During this period, cows experience some degree of hypocalcemia, increased levels of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and Bhydroxybutyrate (BHB), and decreased levels of glucose. Consequently, if prevention is not employed, cows will be at a higher risk of developing calving-related disorders (CRD). Monensin is an ionophore that affects rumen fermentation, resulting in increased proprionic acid production and a concurrent decrease in the molar proportion of acetate and butyrate. Consequently, monensin as a controlled-release capsule has been used to prevent ketosis and other disorders in dairy cattle. The hypothesis of the present study was that transition dairy cows supplemented with monensin and fed typical Florida diets would positively improve energy status. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the effect of a monensin controlled-release capsule inserted at dry-off on concentrations of NEFA, BHB and glucose during the transition period of Florida dairy cows.

Super-resolution microscopy of integrin α5β1 nanoscale receptor clustering: implications for hMSC immunomodulation
Creators: name: Maynard, Stephanie
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Integrins are key cell surface receptors enabling cells to sense and respond to changes in their environment. Integrin signalling is crucial to many cellular processes such as migration, adhesion, proliferation and survival. Errors in signalling are implicated in many disease and injury states, hence understanding these molecular processes is crucial to directing treatment towards them. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are extensively used in regenerative medicine, due in part in their ability to modulate the immune response. Their immunomodulatory abilities are not fully understood at the molecular level, yet it is thought integrins play a central role in this, particularly by clustering of these receptors. Thus fundamental research into how integrins can control the ability of the MSCs to bring about repair processes is needed in order to inform the design of tissue engineered scaffold or drug delivery systems. This thesis examines the role of integrin α5β1 clustering in MSC immunomodulation at the molecular level. In order to achieve single molecule resolution, the super-resolution microscopy technique, STORM, was optimised and utilised to analyse changes in the localisation of the receptor on the cell surface. The effect of the inflammatory cytokines, IL-1β and TNFα, on clustering and subcellular expression and localisation of α5β1 were investigated. Finally insights into predicted downstream signalling molecules linking integrin activation and inflammatory signalling are explored. This data demonstrates clustering of α5β1 in the presence of IL-1β and TNFα in a donor specific manner. This thesis importantly highlights the need to understand cell behaviour at a molecular level where it is thought modifying molecular spacing of ligands, whether in a drug or tissue engineering setting, could tune the cells response bringing about distinctive signalling cascades.
Conjugated Linoleic Acid

description: As an important source of nutrients, milk provides high-quality protein, energy, calcium and a variety of vitamins and minerals. Recent research has focused on altering the fat and protein content of milk and other dairy products in order to improve the nutrient content of these foods so that they more aptly reflect current dietary recommendations and trends. For example, diet is a contributing factor to the onset or progression of some cancers, with epidemiological studies indicating diet composition may be related to 35 percent of human cancer deaths.11 A few substances in our diet have been identified as anti-carcinogens, but most are of plant origin and are only present in trace concentrations. However, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a component of milk fat, introduces an exciting twist to what we know about diet and cancer. Unlike most naturally occurring anticarcinogens, CLA is potent at extremely low levels and present in foods from ruminant animals.

How Much Is That Heifer Worth?

description: My decade of analyzing Integrated Resource Management (IRM) cooperator beef cow herds suggests that heifer retention and replacement strategies have a large impact on long-run profits. What seems to separate profitable beef cow herds from less profitable herds is what is done with the females in the herd and when it is done. Financial problems are frequently exacerbated when replacement heifers are retained at an improper time during the cattle cycle. The beef cattle cycle typically leads to cash flow "booms" during high-priced times and cash flow "busts' during low-priced times. The beef cattle cycle, its resulting beef price cycle, and resource costs are the three most important factors affecting the long-run profitability and sustainability of today's beef cow producers. The timing of herd expansion, and the buying and selling of females, seem to be particularly critical to the long-run profitability of a beef cow herd. This paper presents a procedure for determining the economic value of a bred heifer at any point in the cattle cycle.

Making Cows out of Heifers

description: The replacement heifer is a mixed blessing for most cow-calf operators. On one hand, she represents the future profitability and genetic improvement of the cow herd, thus her selection and development are of paramount importance to the continued success of the cow herd. On the other hand, the replacement heifer is an inconvenience at best. Her smaller size and higher nutritional requirements dictate she be raised and managed separately from the rest of the herd; yet the fact that she is essentially non-productive for the first two years of her life makes her easy prey for mismanagement. Nevertheless, proper growth and development of the replacement female from birth until she produces her first calf is of critical importance for her to become a highly productive part of the cow herd.

description: Ceftiofur is a third-generation cephalosporin approved in the US for the treatment of bovine respiratory disease in beef and dairy cattle. Ceftiofur crystalline free acid sterile suspension (CCFA-SS) is a single administration product developed as an extension to the ceftiofur product line. The efficacy of a single dose of CCFA-SS administered subcutaneously in the neck was established in several clinical field studies. However, this route of administration was not acceptable for registration because of extended residues at the injection site. Consequently, the middle third of the posterior aspect of the ear pinna was selected as an alternative site of administration, and pilot studies were conducted to investigate the duration of efficacy resulting from a high concentration formulation. These studies indicated that administration of3.0 mg CE/lb (6.6 mg CE/kg) was efficacious, suggesting that therapeutic concentrations of ceftiofur and its active metabolite, desfuroylceftiofur, were maintained in interstitial fluids at sites of infection for prolonged periods. Bacterial infections of soft tissues, such as the lung, cause interstitial fluid composition changes which may affect the distribution of antibacterials or their in vitro activity in the target tissue. Evaluation of drug concentrations in intersitial fluid poses significant sampling difficulties; however, several studies have employed perforated tissue chambers implanted subcutaneously to characterize interstitial fluid drug concentrations in cattle. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the plasma and tissue chamber fluid pharmacokinetics of ceftiofur and desfuroylceftiofur after subcutaneous administration of CCFA-SS in the ear pinnae of healthy feedlot calves, and to compare the penetration of ceftiofur and related metabolites into sterile versus Mannheimia haemolyica infected tissue chambers.

description: Electricity generation is currently the largest source of energy-related CO2 emissions, accounting for 41% of the 34 Gt CO2 emitted worldwide in 2020. Electricity consumption by households for use of appliances for lighting, cooling, cooking, washing, and heating contributes significantly to global CO2 emissions. Major household appliances account for 35% of residential end-use electricity consumption in the EU1. Refrigerators and freezers alone account for 15 % of residential electricity end-use, with washing machines accounting for 4 % and dishwashers, electric ovens and clothes dryers accounting for approximately 2% of total residential end-use respectively2. Increased efficiency in energy consumption of household appliances can therefore contribute significantly to emissions mitigation1. The experimental literature in economics, psychology and engineering has used interventions like labelling, information, feedback, rebates, and tax credits to understand the role of demand side interventions in usage and purchase of energy efficient appliances by households. This study aims to quantitatively synthesize this experimental evidence and estimate the potential savings in energy consumption and the resulting global CO2 emissions.

description: Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) continues to bethe leading cause of illness and death loss from weaning through finishing. There is no objective method to evaluate a live animal's severity of sickness or their response to treatment. A pilot study was conducted at a commercial feedyard to evaluate the ability of near-infrared spectroscopy to differentiate between cattle identified as healthy and those identified as having undifferentiated bovine respiratory disease. At processing, 215 randomly selected 900 lb (409 kg) heifers were evaluated to determine tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) levels. Mean ranks of the StO2 values were found to be 176.86+/- 5.50. One-hundred head of cattle pulled for clinical signs of bovine respiratory disease were evaluated in the hospital. Animals were classified as first pull, second pull and third pull based upon clinical observations. First pull animals were those with no previous history of being treated for respiratory disease and having signs of BRD with rectal temperature at or above 104 ° F ( 40° C). Second pulls and third pulls were those animals failing to respond to either a first treatment or a second treatment for BRD as evidenced by no improvement in clinical appearance or rectal temperature remaining above 104.0 F. Mean StO2 ranks were 110.42 +/- 11.29, 120.08 +/- 14.48 and 132.83 +/- 19.00 for first, second and third pulls, respectively. A significant difference was found between the rank of the StO2 values in cattle at processing and those classified as first, second or third pulls (P<0.05). No difference was found between the three pull classifications. The authors feel that the results shown in this study provide the basis for further research in the evaluation of BRD with near-infrared spectroscopy.
