Growth standard charts for monitoring bodyweight in dogs of different sizes
Limited information is available on what constitutes optimal growth in dogs. The primary aim of this study was to develop evidence-based growth standards for dogs, using retrospective analysis of bodyweight and age data from >6 million young dogs attending a large corporate network of primary care veterinary hospitals across the USA. Electronic medical records were used to generate bodyweight d...
متن کاملMetabolic Differences between Dogs of Different Body Sizes
Introduction The domesticated dog, Canis lupus familiaris, has been selectively bred to produce extreme diversity in phenotype and genotype. Dogs have an immense diversity in weight and height. Specific differences in metabolism have not been characterized in small dogs as compared to larger dogs. Objectives This study aims to identify metabolic, clinical, and microbiota differences between s...

متن کاملWeighted CUSUM Control Charts for Monitoring Inhomogeneous Poisson Processes with Varying Sample Sizes
Monitoring inhomogeneous Poisson processes with varying sample sizes has attracted considerable attention recently in both industrial quality control and public health surveillance. One of the key challenges in these applications is that a change in incidence rate may be masked by changes of sample sizes. The conventional Poisson cumulative sum (CUSUM) chart designed for detecting a pre-specifi...
متن کاملLikelihood-Based EWMA Charts for Monitoring Poisson Count Data with Time-Varying Sample Sizes∗
Many applications involve monitoring incidence rates of the Poisson distribution when sample size varies over time. Recently, a couple of cumulative sum and exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts have been proposed to tackle this problem by taking the varying sample size into consideration. However, we argue that some of these charts, which perform quite well in terms of av...
