Parturient eclampsia in cows

Oral Calcium Boluses for Parturient Dairy Cows

1 Interpretative Summary: Effect of oral calcium supplementation on early lactation health 1 and milk yield in commercial dairy herds. By Oetzel and Miller, page 000. Low blood 2 calcium often occurs in older cows around calving and impairs subsequent health and milk yield. 3 Second lactation or greater cows in 2 commercial dairies with effective milk fever prevention 4 were divided into contro...

Calcium chloride gel treatment of parturient dairy cows: Effect on hypocalcemia and parturient diseases

The Degrees of Parturient Hypocalcemia and Its Relevance to Other Metabolic Profile Parameters in Downer Cows

At calving time, the cows were monitored and blood samples were taken from jugular vein of 38 cows with parturient paresis and 38 healthy ones. The levels of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride, glucose, triglyceride, cholesterol, albumin, globulin and A/G ratio were assessed to find the correlation between the degree of hypocalcemia and other parameters. According to ca...

Microarray analysis of gene expression in blood neutrophils of parturient cows.

It is well documented that blood neutrophils from parturient dairy cows do not perform as well as neutrophils from nonparturient cows in laboratory assays of adhesion, migration, or phagocytosis-induced respiratory burst. However, little is known about the possible molecular basis for parturition-induced changes in neutrophils. cDNA microarray analysis was used in the current study to explore p...
