Stress and pain response after oligofructose induced-lameness in dairy heifers
Lameness is one of the most painful conditions that affects dairy cattle. This study was conducted to evaluate clinical signs and plasma concentration of several pain and stress biomarkers after oligofructose-induced lameness in dairy heifers. Lameness was induced using an oligofructose overload model in 12 non-pregnant heifers. Clinical parameters and blood samples were obtained at 48 and 24 h...
متن کاملLameness and Pain in Dairy Cows
Pain associated with the injuries of hoof and surrounding tissues is an important cause of lameness. However, this condition can also be caused by non-painful changes of the locomotion system. The objective of this study was to detect the attributes of impaired gait that are associated with pain. Gait was evaluated using a subjective scoring system and objective kinematic measures, while putati...
متن کاملLameness in dairy Cows
This paper intended to review the lameness in dairy cattle. But it was necessary to have an overview about the hoof anatomical structure, it's growth and overgrowth properties. Most common causes of lameness such as laminitis and its different clinical form or presentation such as sole ulcers, toe ulcers, white line disorders, sole and white linehemorrhages have been reviewed and discussed. ...
متن کاملAcute bovine laminitis: a new induction model using alimentary oligofructose overload.
Twelve dairy heifers were used to examine the clinical response of an alimentary oligofructose overload. Six animals were divided into 3 subgroups, and each was given a bolus dose of 13, 17, or 21 g/kg of oligofructose orally. The control group (n = 6) was sham-treated with tap water. Signs of lameness, cardiovascular function, and gastrointestinal function were monitored every 6 h during devel...
متن کاملLameness in dairy heifers; impacts of hoof lesions present around first calving on future lameness, milk yield and culling risk
The importance of lameness in primiparous dairy heifers is increasingly recognised. Although it is accepted that clinical lameness in any lactation increases the risk of future lameness, the impact of foot lesions during the first lactation on long-term lameness risk is less clear. This retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the impacts of foot lesions occurring around the time of firs...
