Restricted maximum likelihood estimates of covariance components and the resulting genetic parameters were obtained for birth, weaning, yearling and final weights and postweaning gain of Australian Charolais cattle fitting an animal model including genetic or permanent environmental maternal effects. No 'carry-over' of maternal effects till weaning on postweaning weights w& found. Direct herita...

Exclusive breastfeeding provides optimal nutrition for infants until they are six months of age. After six months, infants require complementary foods to meet their nutritional needs. This is when weaning begins. Weaning is the gradual process of introducing complementary foods to an infant's diet while continuing to breastfeed. There is no universally accepted or scientifically proven time whe...

Three types of protein granules, glycogen and ribonucleic acid (RNA) present in the cytoplasm of the rat parathyroid cells were chemocytologically examined at the various stages of experimental weaning, and based upon their morphology the cytophysiological significances of these cytoplasmic substances were discussed. Proteins and RNA were abundantly found in the parathyroid cells at the early s...

the case is 43 years old woman referred to emergency department of our hospital with quadriplegia and severe respiratory insufficiency due to c5-c6 injury after falling. she discharged from icu after fixation of the lesion and successful weaning. we evaluated electrical activity of diaphragm signal (edi), respiratory drive (p100) during one month period. we detected increase in level of electri...

Introduction: Breastfeeding is essential and a unique way of providing food to infants for development and healthy growth. Various breastfeeding practices are followed in different regions of India.  Objective: This study aims to collect the information for practices related to prelacteal feed, early initiation of breastfeeding, exclusive breastfeeding, and weaning in India. Materials and Met...

The objective was to merge science and practice determine the feasibility of a mixed suckling milking system compared with traditional exclusive management on production performance dairy sheep their progeny in an outdoor pasture-based farming at commercial scale. At 14 d postpartum, twin- triplet-bearing mixed-age East Friesian ewes were randomly allocated either once-a-day milking,suckling ea...

The objective was to study the effects of weaning in week 5 (W5) vs. 4 (W4), as well liquid (LF) dry feed (DF), on growth performance, disaccharidase activity and nutrient transporter expression after weaning. experiment included 12,923 pigs fed LF or DF pre-weaning period a subpopulation 15 from each group, W4DF, W4LF, W5DF W5LF, which were weighed euthanized five days proximal part small inte...

INTRODUCTION Optimal management of mechanical ventilation and weaning requires dynamic and collaborative decision making to minimize complications and avoid delays in the transition to extubation. In the absence of collaboration, ventilation decision making may be fragmented, inconsistent, and delayed. Our objective was to describe the professional group with responsibility for key ventilation ...
