We estimated the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on mortality in Brazil for 2020 and 2021 years. used data (2015-2021) from Brazilian Health Ministry forecasting baseline deaths under non-pandemic conditions to estimate all-cause excess at country level stratified by sex, age, ethnicity region residence, March December 2021. also considered estimation due specific causes. The were 187 842 (95% PI: 164 122; 211 562, P-Score = 16.1%) weeks 10-53, 2020, 441 048 411 740; 470 356, 31.9%) 1-52, values...
Context The economic efficiency of a dairy system is associated with the animal’s productive and reproductive abilities. Therefore, selection criteria should include milk production quality traits as well related to health fertility. Since such phenotypes can present non-normal distributions, use threshold models appropriate study genetic variation traits. Aim To estimate variance components for functional in Brazilian Holstein cattle population using linear under Bayesian approach. Methods...
Fatty acids (FA) have been related to effects on human health, sensory quality and shelf life of dairy products, cow's health methane emission. However, despite their importance, they are not regularly measured in all herds yet, which can affect the accuracy estimated breeding values (EBV) for these traits. In this case, an alternative is use genomic selection. Thus, aim was assess information genetic evaluation milk traits a tropical Holstein population. Monthly records (n = 36,457) FA...
Abstract We estimated the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on mortality in Brazil for 2020 and 2021 years. used data (2015–2021) from Health Ministry, Brazilian government, to fit linear mixed models forecasting baseline deaths under non-pandemic conditions. An advantage model is flexibility capture year-trend while dealing with correlations among death counts over time. Following a specified model-building strategy, estimation all-cause excess at country level stratified by sex, age, ethnicity...
