Contentious issues in calf rearing include milk feeding practices and single versus group housing. The current study was performed on a high producing 170 Holstein cow dairy farm, to investigate the impact of nutrition housing growth reproduction. Heifer calves (n = 100) were allocated birth order one two commonly used management strategies. All received 3–4 litres dam specific colostrum within 6 hours birth. Group A housed from fed replacer (MR) ad libitum via computerised machine utilising...

The current study was performed on a high-producing 170 Holstein cow dairy farm to investigate the impact of nutrition housing disease incidence. Calves (n=100) were allocated birth order one two commonly used strategies. Group A calves housed from fed ad libitum replacer (MR) via computerised machine using teat, with weaning commencing at 63 days. R initially individual pens receiving 2.5 litres...

Diet, physical function and gut health are important modifiable factors in ageing. However, it is unclear how ageing affects various domains of function. Aims this cross-sectional study were to explore relationships between nutrient intake, function, biomarkers older individuals. Healthy participants (n = 94, mean age 71.1 years SD 5.10, 56% female) recruited investigate the relationship intake (protein, fibre, carbohydrate, fat), (chair rise time, handgrip strength) lipopolysaccharide (LPS)...
Background: Low skeletal muscle index (SMI) and sarcopenia adversely affect clinical outcomes in oncology patients. Study aims were to assess the agreement of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), mid-arm circumference (MAMC), computed tomography (CT) at third lumbar vertebra (L3), for measurement mass identification sarcopenia, patients with colorectal cancer (CRC).Method: A comparison study low SMI determined by BIA MAMC, compared CT. Sensitivity, specificity area under curve (AUC)...
Home parenteral support (HPS) is an essential but potentially burdensome treatment that can affect quality of life (QoL). The aims this longitudinal study were to understand whether any changes in HPS over time associated with QoL. Parenteral Nutrition Impact Questionnaire (PNIQ) was used, and data collected on prescribed at three points. Data analysed using multi-level mixed regression models presented as effect size adjusted for confounders. Study recruited 572 participants from 15 sites....
