increase in feed intake of broiler breeder hens, results to incidence of metabolic and hormonal changes and finally leads to poor reproductive performance. an experiment was conducted to evaluate responses of feed-satiated and feed-restricted laying breeder hens to daily injection of an acute dose of progesterone (p4). a total of 64 cobb 500 hens were fed either restricted or ad libitum from 27...

Numerous studies have addressed the nutritional needs of pregnant women. The nutritional status of the woman before and during gestation affects the growth of the fetus and the course of the pregnancy and influences the risk of obesity for mother and infant. The aim of this study was to propose a diet quality index for pregnancy based on a Mediterranean-type diet (MDS-P), evaluating the diet of...

The nutritional factors which affect lead absorption have been studied. Synthetic diets of known composition were compounded to contain 0-075% Pb as PbCl2 labelled with 203Pb. Rats were exposed to lead for periods of 48 hr. The dietary intake was then measured and the absorption of lead determined by means of a whole-body counter. Lead absorption was increased by high fat, low mineral, low prot...

It has become commonplace for Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) to be analyzed according to Intention-to-Treat (ITT) principles in which data from all subjects are used regardless of the subjects' adherence to protocol. While ITT analyses can provide useful information in some cases, they do not answer the question that motivates many RCTs, namely, whether the treatments differ in efficacy. I...

Let $mathbb{F}$ be an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic $p>2$ and $(g, [p])$ a finite-dimensional restricted Lie superalgebra over $mathbb{F}$. It is showed that anyfinite-dimensional indecomposable $g$-module is a module for a finite-dimensional quotient of the universal enveloping superalgebra of $g$. These quotient superalgebras are called the generalized reduced enveloping ...

In this investigation, the effects of enclosure, restal delayed grazing andcontinued grazing treatments on the production rate and vegetation cover were studied.Study area was SadrAbad pasture. After selecting three bands (1+1+1=3 hectare area) asthree treatments in the restricted and non restricted area, they were transected to threetransects. Then plots (1×2m2 ) were selected to measure the p...

forty-two weaned lori-bakhtiari lambs were taken in an investigation for the effects of two-nutritional management methods of restricted vs. re-alimentation feeding on intake, growth and as well on the cost benefit analysis. during the feed restriction period (frp), the control (c) animals were fed low-quality roughage ad libitum, plus mixed concentrate. the restricted animals (r) were fed only...

‎In this paper‎, ‎first we develop the duality concept for $g$-Bessel sequences‎ ‎and Bessel fusion sequences in Hilbert spaces‎. ‎We obtain some results about dual‎, ‎pseudo-dual ‎and approximate dual of frames and fusion frames‎. ‎We also expand every $g$-Bessel ‎sequence to a frame by summing some elements‎. ‎We define the restricted isometry property for ‎$g$-frames and generalize some resu...
