δ15N Value Does Not Reflect Fasting in Mysticetes
The finding that tissue δ(15)N values increase with protein catabolism has led researchers to apply this value to gauge nutritive condition in vertebrates. However, its application to marine mammals has in most occasions failed. We investigated the relationship between δ(15)N values and the fattening/fasting cycle in a model species, the fin whale, a migratory capital breeder that experiences s...
متن کاملDelayed Ovarian Cyclicity Does not Reflect Blood Metabolites Irregularity in Postpartum Holstein Cows
An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of different types of ovarian cycles on reproductive indices and blood metabolites in 61 Holstein cows. Blood samples were taken from each cow between day 12 and day 50 postpartum (PP). Serum progesterone concentrations were measured to determine the onset of luteal function and different types of luteal dysfunctions in cows. Serum glucose, ...

متن کاملThe MDRD formula does not reflect GFR in ESRD patients.
BACKGROUND The Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation is widely used for the estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from plasma creatinine. It has been well validated in patients with various degrees of impaired kidney function, but not in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Plasma creatinine is determined by GFR and muscle mass. Importance of the latter may inc...
متن کاملDoes the predicted postoperative FEV1 formula reflect the real value?
intestinal obstruction syndrome (DIOS) can be as important an issue after transplant in individuals with CF as management of pulmonary complications. In the initial days after lung transplant, the combination of high-dose narcotics, postoperative ileus, poor oral intake, and bed rest creates a risk for DIOS that makes the estimate of 20% incidence seem optimistically low. Gilljam et al1 wisely ...
