description: Doramectin pour-on (Dectomax® Pour-On) solution is an endectocide that is highly effective in the treatment of gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, grubs, and sucking and biting lice of cattle. Doramectin pour-on solution also has label indications for protection from reinfection (greater than 90% efficacy) of 28 days for Ostertagia ostertagi, Cooperia punctata, and Oesophagostomum radiatum and 21 days for Dictyocaulus viviparus and Cooperia oncophora. To evaluate the field efficacy of doramectin pour-on solution, four studies were conducted with stocker beef cattle treated with doramectin pour-on solution at a dose rate of 500 +g/kg body weight compared to untreated control calves. Locations and durations of these studies were Wisconsin (140 days), Arkansas (82 days), Louisiana (140 days), and Tennessee (141 days).

description: Smart devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm provide a variety of unobtrusive and pervasive means for continuous monitoring of bio-metrics and health information. Furthermore, automated personalization and authentication through such smart systems can enable better user experience and security. In this paper, simultaneous estimation and monitoring of body mass index (BMI) and user identity recognition through a unified machine learning framework using smart beds is explored. To this end, we utilize pressure data collected from textile-based sensor arrays integrated onto a mattress to estimate the BMI values of subjects and classify their identities in different positions by using a deep multitask neural network. First, we filter and extract 14 features from the data and subsequently employ deep neural networks for BMI estimation and subject identification on two different public datasets. Finally, we demonstrate that our proposed solution outperforms prior works and several machine learning benchmarks by a considerable margin, while also estimating users' BMI in a 10-fold cross-validation scheme.

description: Mycobacterium bovis, the etiological agent of bovine tuberculosis has been reported in a wide variety of domestic animals and wildlife. In the United States, the bovine tuberculosis eradication program was launched in 1917 during a period when the prevalence of disease was estimated to be 5% in cattle and 15% in swine. By 1991, 41 states plus the Virgin Islands were accredited tuberculosis free. During the past ten years bovine tuberculosis in the state of Texas has been on the rise and Texas now harbors more than 50% of M. bovis infected U.S. cattle. Epidemiological causes of disease are presumed to include importation of infected animals, incomplete depopulation of infected herds, movement of tuberculosis exposed animals between herds and transmission from unidentified wild life reservoirs. Identification and differentiation of various strains using recently developed DNA marker techniques would provide a better understanding of the epidemiology of M. bovis infections and effective control of the disease. In the present study, M. bovis isolates originating from North American cattle, deer and other were fingerprinted using IS6110 and DR probes. The isolates were categorized into 85 distinct RFLP types based on a combination of individual fingerprint patterns. This method revealed that bovine tuberculosis cases in North America are caused by strains exhibiting different RFLP types. A significant proportion of bovine isolates harbored multiple IS6110 copies which is a characteristic feature of isolates originating from animals other than cattle.

description: Nutritional requirements across the portal-drained viscera of preruminant calves were determined using an arteriovenous difference technique. In the current studies, a bilateral subcostal approach was used to reach the portal area to provide access for proper placement of an ultrasonic transit time flow probe around the portal vein. The application of an ultrasonic flow probe provided consistent measurements of blood flow. The umbilical vein was used as an entry point for the portal vein catheter. The femoral artery was also catheterized. Using blood flow measurements and arteriovenous differences we could measure net nutrient uptake. This model has been performed successfully on healthy calves, but the study may have implications in the development of treatment to promote intestinal healing in diarrheic calves.

description: Identification of specific and therapeutically actionable vulnerabilities, ideally present across multiple mutational backgrounds, is needed to improve acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients' outcomes. We identify stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD), the key enzyme in fatty acid (FA) desaturation, as prognostic of patients' outcomes and, using the clinical-grade inhibitor SSI-4, show that SCD inhibition (SCDi) is a therapeutic vulnerability across multiple AML models in vitro and in vivo. Multiomic analysis demonstrates that SCDi causes lipotoxicity, which induces AML cell death via pleiotropic effects. Sensitivity to SCDi correlates with AML dependency on FA desaturation regardless of mutational profile and is modulated by FA biosynthesis activity. Finally, we show that lipotoxicity increases chemotherapy-induced DNA damage and standard chemotherapy further sensitizes AML cells to SCDi. Our work supports developing FA desaturase inhibitors in AML while stressing the importance of identifying predictive biomarkers of response and biologically validated combination therapies to realize their full therapeutic potential.

description: "Vertically challenged" is the "politically correct" term for short, for those of you who were wondering what this was all about. Since the mid 1980's, 70% of the veterinary school graduates in the United States have been women. However, the number of women entering food animal practice has not proportionately increased. There tips are not for women only as there are clearly vertically challenged male practitioners out there, but they are also to encourage those with smaller stature that working on livestock is NOT an impossibility and even has it's advantages. These tips are also to encourage potential veterinary employers not to judge a person's physical abilities based on stature.

Charge  explained like never before
Creators: name: Wilcox, Clyde Jermaine
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: This paper presents a systems-based reinterpretation of electric charge, not as an intrinsic unit, but as an emergent structural force that organizes energy flow across thresholds. Bridging classical physics, plasma dynamics, and systems theory, it proposes that charge arises under specific energetic conditions to maintain coherence in chaotic environments. The model reframes quantization as a layered pattern-lock triggered by critical energy structures, offering a bridge to quantum electrodynamics and experimental plasma behavior. This work contributes to the growing discourse on energy architecture and the deeper systemic behaviors underlying force emergence.

description: A family of error-correcting codes is list-decodable from error fraction $p$ if, for every code in the family, the number of codewords in any Hamming ball of fractional radius $p$ is less than some integer $L$ that is independent of the code length. It is said to be list-recoverable for input list size $\ell$ if for every sufficiently large subset of codewords (of size $L$ or more), there is a coordinate where the codewords take more than $\ell$ values. The parameter $L$ is said to be the "list size" in either case. The capacity, i.e., the largest possible rate for these notions as the list size $L \to \infty$, is known to be $1-h_q(p)$ for list-decoding, and $1-\log_q \ell$ for list-recovery, where $q$ is the alphabet size of the code family.
 In this work, we study the list size of random linear codes for both list-decoding and list-recovery as the rate approaches capacity. We show the following claims hold with high probability over the choice of the code (below, $ε> 0$ is the gap to capacity).
 (1) A random linear code of rate $1 - \log_q(\ell) - ε$ requires list size $L \ge \ell^{Ω(1/ε)}$ for list-recovery from input list size $\ell$. This is surprisingly in contrast to completely random codes, where $L = O(\ell/ε)$ suffices w.h.p.
 (2) A random linear code of rate $1 - h_q(p) - ε$ requires list size $L \ge \lfloor h_q(p)/ε+0.99 \rfloor$ for list-decoding from error fraction $p$, when $ε$ is sufficiently small.
 (3) A random binary linear code of rate $1 - h_2(p) - ε$ is list-decodable from average error fraction $p$ with list size with $L \leq \lfloor h_2(p)/ε\rfloor + 2$.
 The second and third results together precisely pin down the list sizes for binary random linear codes for both list-decoding and average-radius list-decoding to three possible values.

The null coordinates allow one to immediately extend some results previously proven for Kerr. As an example, we illustrate how Sbierski's result, for the wave equation on the black hole interior, for Reissner-Nordström and Kerr spacetimes, applies to Kerr-Newman-de Sitter spacetimes.

description: Suppose that $P$ is a property that may be satisfied by a random code $C \subset Σ^n$. For example, for some $p \in (0,1)$, ${P}$ might be the property that there exist three elements of $C$ that lie in some Hamming ball of radius $pn$. We say that $R^*$ is the threshold rate for ${P}$ if a random code of rate $R^* + ε$ is very likely to satisfy ${P}$, while a random code of rate $R^* - ε$ is very unlikely to satisfy ${P}$. While random codes are well-studied in coding theory, even the threshold rates for relatively simple properties like the one above are not well understood.
 We characterize threshold rates for a rich class of properties. These properties, like the example above, are defined by the inclusion of specific sets of codewords which are also suitably "symmetric". For properties in this class, we show that the threshold rate is in fact equal to the lower bound that a simple first-moment calculation obtains. Our techniques not only pin down the threshold rate for the property ${P}$ above, they give sharp bounds on the threshold rate for list-recovery in several parameter regimes, as well as an efficient algorithm for estimating the threshold rates for list-recovery in general.

Corrective Trimming of Corkscrew Claw

Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1998

description: Corkscrew claw is a hereditary condition affecting both front and hind claws, mostly outer hind claws, and result from a malalignment and twisting of the middle phalanx. The proximal and distal surfaces of the middle phalanx can be out of alignment by as much as 11 °. The distal phalanx is abnormally narrow and long. This malalignment causes increased pressure on the coronary corium of the abaxial wall resulting in accelerated horn growth with lateral to medial deviation of the lateral wall, which then curls under the sole replacing some of the normal weight bearing surface.

description: We prove that the truncated correlation functions of the charge and gradient fields associated with the massless sine-Gordon model on $\mathbb{R}^2$ with $β=4π$ exist for all coupling constants and are equal to those of the chiral densities and vector current of free massive Dirac fermions. This is an instance of Coleman's prediction that the massless sine-Gordon model and the massive Thirring model are equivalent (in the above sense of correlation functions). Our main novelty is that we prove this correspondence starting from the Euclidean path integral in the non-perturative regime of the infinite volume models. We use this correspondence to show that the correlation functions of the massless sine-Gordon model with $β=4π$ decay exponentially and that the corresponding probabilistic field is localized.

description: An essential part for the accurate classification of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals is the extraction of informative yet general features, which are able to discriminate diseases. Cardiovascular abnormalities manifest themselves in features on different time scales: small scale morphological features, such as missing P-waves, as well as rhythmical features apparent on heart rate scales. For this reason we incorporate a variant of the complex wavelet transform, called a scatter transform, in a deep residual neural network (ResNet). The former has the advantage of being derived from theory, making it well behaved under certain transformations of the input. The latter has proven useful in ECG classification, allowing feature extraction and classification to be learned in an end-to-end manner. Through the incorporation of trainable layers in between scatter transforms, the model gains the ability to combine information from different channels, yielding more informative features for the classification task and adapting them to the specific domain. For evaluation, we submitted our model in the official phase in the PhysioNet/Computing in Cardiology Challenge 2020. Our (Team Triage) approach achieved a challenge validation score of 0.640, and full test score of 0.485, placing us 4th out of 41 in the official ranking.

description: The relative economic importance of reproductive traits to the beef industry is estimated at twice the importance of beef production traits and four times the importance of product traits.1 The selection and management of replacement heifers influence the reproductive efficiency of the cattle industry.2 Heifers that mature early are capable of being bred earlier in a controlled breeding season and will wean a heavier calf.3 These heifers tend to breed early each breeding season for the rest of their reproductive life and have a lifetime heavier weaned calf weight.4 With this economic value placed on reproduction, ways to measure and predict reproductive efficiency in cattle are needed. One method to estimate reproductive efficiency was developed by researchers at Colorado State University.5 A reproductive tract scoring (RTS) system was developed as an indirect determination of age at puberty.

description: We initiate the study of property testing problems concerning relations between permutations. In such problems, the input is a tuple $(σ_1,\dotsc,σ_d)$ of permutations on $\{1,\dotsc,n\}$, and one wishes to determine whether this tuple satisfies a certain system of relations $E$, or is far from every tuple that satisfies $E$. If this computational problem can be solved by querying only a small number of entries of the given permutations, we say that $E$ is testable. For example, when $d=2$ and $E$ consists of the single relation $\mathsf{XY=YX}$, this corresponds to testing whether $σ_1σ_2=σ_2σ_1$, where $σ_1σ_2$ and $σ_2σ_1$ denote composition of permutations.
 We define a collection of graphs, naturally associated with the system $E$, that encodes all the information relevant to the testability of $E$. We then prove two theorems that provide criteria for testability and non-testability in terms of expansion properties of these graphs. By virtue of a deep connection with group theory, both theorems are applicable to wide classes of systems of relations.
 In addition, we formulate the well-studied group-theoretic notion of stability in permutations as a special case of the testability notion above, interpret all previous works on stability as testability results, survey previous results on stability from a computational perspective, and describe many directions for future research on stability and testability.

description: Surgical resection of umbilical structures in calves is most frequently done using intravenous or intramuscular administration of xylazine/ketamine with or without inhalation anesthetic agents. We were interested in examining the efficacy of a practical and inexpensive alternative anesthetic protocol for umbilical surgery, specifically intramuscular xylazine sedation combined with lumbosacral epidural administration of lidocaine and xylazine.

description: Infection with E. coli O157:H7 is the most common cause of human hemorrhagic colitis in North America. Cattle are a reservoir for this human pathogen and individual animals are sporadically and transiently colonized. We hypothesize that pre-harvest dietary management may reduce the risk of E. coli O157-positive animals entering our food chain. The effect of dietary energy, fiber, and digesta passage rates on the duration and concentration of fecal E. coli 0157 was determined. Sixteen healthy Charlais x Hereford or Holstein heifers were acclimated to one of four diets: a finishing diet (high in energy and low in fiber), a growing diet (low in energy and high in fiber), chopped alfalfa (small particle size), or long alfalfa (large particle size). A single oral dose of 1010 colony forming-units of E.coli 0157 was administered to each animal and fecal samples were cultured for the bacteria by selective-enrichment twice a week for the duration of the study. No significant difference in the shedding of 0157 by animals on the finishing or growing diet was observed. However, withholding feed of either type, for 24 hours, did increase the concentration of the bacteria in the fecal material of about half of the animals. A significant correlation (p value=0.008) was observed between digesta passage rate and the duration of fecal E. coli 0157. Animals with slower passage rates of 2 to 3 % per hour cleared E. coli 0157 from their intestinal tract in 10 days or less compared to animals with digesta passage rates of 4 to 5 % per hour who shed the bacteria for more than 69 days. These results show that cattle diet influences the duration and concentration of fecal E. coli O157:H7.

description: In \cite{AV99}, Antoine and Vandergheynst propose a group-theoretic approach to continuous wavelet frames on the sphere. The frame is constructed from a single so-called admissible function by applying the unitary operators associated to a representation of the Lorentz group, which is square-integrable modulo the nilpotent factor of the Iwasawa decomposition. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for functions on the sphere, which ensure that the corresponding system is a frame. We strengthen a similar result in \cite{AV99} by providing a complete and detailed proof.
Immunohistochemical Test on Skin Biopsies as a Method for Detection of Cattle Persistently Infected with Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus

description: A novel rapid method for identification of cattle persistently infected (PI) with bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) was examined. Individual cattle PI with BVDV serve as a source of infectious virus within cattle herds. Identification of cattle which are PI with BVDV is a clinical challenge, since many PI cattle appear clinically normal. BVDV infects a wide variety of tissues and cell types, particularly cells of the monocyte macrophage lineage. Cells of this lineage are present in the skin. BVDV antigen can be readily detected by the immunohistochemical (IHC) method.

description: A vehicle routing and crew scheduling problem (VRCSP) consists of simultaneously planning the routes of a fleet of vehicles and scheduling the crews, where the vehicle-crew correspondence is not fixed through time. This allows a greater planning flexibility and a more efficient use of the fleet, but in counterpart, a high synchronisation is demanded. In this work, we present a VRCSP where pickup-and-delivery requests with time windows have to be fulfilled over a given planning horizon by using trucks and drivers. Crews can be composed of 1 or 2 drivers and any of them can be relieved in a given set of locations. Moreover, they are allowed to travel among locations with non-company shuttles, at an additional cost that is minimised. As our problem considers distinct routes for trucks and drivers, we have an additional flexibility not contemplated in other previous VRCSP given in the literature where a crew is handled as an indivisible unit. We tackle this problem with a two-stage sequential approach: a set of truck routes is computed in the first stage and a set of driver routes consistent with the truck routes is obtained in the second one. We design and evaluate the performance of a metaheuristic based algorithm for the latter stage. Our algorithm is mainly a GRASP with a perturbation procedure that allows reusing solutions already found in case the search for new solutions becomes difficult. This procedure together with other to repair infeasible solutions allow us to find high-quality solutions on instances of 100 requests spread across 15 cities with a fleet of 12-32 trucks (depending on the planning horizon) in less than an hour. We also conclude that the possibility of carrying an additional driver leads to a decrease of the cost of external shuttles by about 60% on average with respect to individual crews and, in some cases, to remove this cost completely.

description: Subnatural-linewidth single photons are ofvital importance in quantum optics and quantum information science. According to previous research, it appears difficult to utilize resonance fluorescence to generate single photons with subnatural linewidth. Here we propose a universally applicable approach to generate fluorescent single photons with subnatural linewidth, which can be implemented based on Λ-shape and similar energy structures. Further, the general condition to obtain fluorescent single photons with subnatural linewidth is revealed. The single-photon linewidth can be easily manipulated over a broad range by external fields, which can be several orders ofmagnitude smaller than the natural linewidth. Our study can be easily implemented in various physical platforms with current experimental techniques and will significantly facilitate the research on the quantum nature of resonance fluorescence and the technologies in quantum information science.

description: Despite prophylactic measures, mainly including vaccination programs and management measures, respiratory disease remains the major cause of economic losses in bovine species. Therapeutic strategies include three targets: the etiologic agents, the inflammatory reaction and the mechanical disorders. Choice of treatment is currently main based on the clinician's personal experience. A theoretical method has been proposed earlier to classify this syndrome_into four grades of severity: Grade 1, subclinical disease (no treatment); Grade 2, compensated clinical disease (antibiotics only); Grade 3, noncompensated clinical disease (antibiotics + antiinflammatory drugs and Grade 4, irreversible clinical disease (no treatment). However, objective methods to evaluate immediate, in an easy and cheap way, the functional impact of respiratory pathologies and to determine the level of severity are not available. Three techniques, each one evaluating the oxygen transport chain at a different level, have been studied and validated, i.e. pulse oximetry, lactate dosage and the lobeline test. Measurement of arterial hemoglobin oxygen saturation is an important means to evaluate effectiveness of the oxygen transport chain. Assessment is usually performed based on an arterial blood sample analyzed by a blood gas analyzer. This technique presents several disadvantages: it's invasive, discontinuous and expensive. Pulse oximetry is a non-invasive, immediate and cheap method of measuring percentage oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin, based on differential absorption of red and infrared light. It showed to be useful and accurate in bovines when the probe was fitted to the animal's tail, even with low values of hemoglobin saturation. Blood lactate levels are elevated in case of severe bovine respiratory disease because of diminished tissue oxygenation and because of elevated respiratory muscle effort. Assessment used to be done by a complex laboratory test. Recently a handportable apparatus, named "Accusport" and measuring blood lactate concentration immediately, has been introduced in equine medicine. It proved also to be reliable and useful in the evaluation of severity of bovine respiratory disease. Finally, assessment of ventilatory reserve capacity by administration oflobeline, a respiratory analeptic, revealed to be very sensitive and especially valuable in animals with minor respiratory problems. The theoretical classification into four grades of severity of bovine respiratory disease is worthless without practical means to evaluate functional impact in the field. The three presented tests could help us to realize this objective and finally economize therapeutic strategies in bovine respiratory disease.
