Objectives: Few studies have explored the impact of different types neglect on children's development. Measures cognition, language, behavior, and parenting stress were used to explore differences between children experiencing various forms neglect, as well compare with without a history early neglect. Methods: Children, ages 3 10 years familial (USN), compared institutional rearing (IA) using Differential Abilities Scale, Test Early Language Development, Child Behavior Checklist, Parenting...
The main requirement for milk processed in most cheese typologies is its rennet coagulation ability. Despite the increasing number of studies, causes abnormal are not fully understood. aim this study was to ascertain relationships between characteristics and ability, focusing on influence calcium (Ca) phosphorus (P). Ca P essential constituents micelles. Micellar can be present as part colloidal phosphate (inorganic-P) or covalently bound caseins groups (casein-P). Eighty one herd samples...
Genetic diversity has become an urgent matter not only in small local breeds but also more specialized ones. While the use of genomic data livestock breeding programs increased genetic gain, there is increasing evidence that this benefit may be counterbalanced by potential loss variability. Thus, study, we aimed to investigate Italian Holstein dairy cattle using pedigree and from cows born between 2002 2020. We estimated variation inbreeding, effective population size, generation interval...
Importance The function-based eat, sleep, console (ESC) care approach substantially reduces the proportion of infants who receive pharmacologic treatment for neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS). This reduction has led to concerns increased postnatal exposure in treatment. However, effect ESC on hospital outcomes pharmacologically treated NOWS is currently unknown. Objective To evaluate differences and total length stay (LOS) managed with vs usual Finnegan tool. Design, Setting,...
Little is known about the complex process of cheesemaking at individual level dairy goats because difficulties producing a high number model cheeses. The objectives this work were (1) to study ability goat milk; (2) investigate variability cheesemaking-related traits among different farms; (3) assess effects stage lactation and parity; (4) compare 6 breeds (Saanen Camosciata delle Alpi for Alpine type; Murciano-Granadina, Maltese, Sarda Primitiva Mediterranean type) their ability. For each...
The aim of this study was to assess the influence amounts αS1-, αS2-, β-, and κ-casein (CN) α-lactalbumin β-lactoglobulin protein fractions on efficiency cheese-making process independently their genetic polymorphisms. carried out milk samples from 1,271 Brown Swiss cows 85 herds classified into 4 categories according management, feeding, housing characteristics (traditional modern systems). To process, we processed a laboratory procedure (1,500 mL/sample) obtained following measures: (1) 3...
Donkey milk is increasingly being proposed as a natural alternative for various categories of consumers, especially infants and the elderly population. However, its potential production, gross, mineral composition have not been deeply investigated yet. Sixty-two individual samples were collected monthly from nine Ragusano donkeys reared in specialized dairy farm. Milk yield well chemical composition, including macro micro elements, over an entire lactation, second to ninth month milking....
Telehealth may improve access to care for populations in rural communities. However, little is known about the effectiveness of telehealth programs designed children.To examine associations a school-based program Williamsburg county (South Carolina) with all-cause emergency department (ED) visits made by children enrolled Medicaid.This Medicaid claims data analysis was conducted and 4 surrounding counties South Carolina included aged 3 17 years who were living any 5 from January 2012...
Recent available instruments allow to record the number of differential somatic cell count (DSCC), representing combined proportion polymorphonuclear leukocytes and lymphocytes, on a large milk samples. Milk DSCC provides indirect information udder health status dairy cows. However, literature is limited regarding effect composition at individual cow level, as well its relation score (SCS). Hence, aims this study were (i) investigate different levels (fat, protein, casein, casein index,...
The authors report the results of a study aimed at comparison basic chemical composition, main protein fractions distribution, rennet coagulation properties and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese yield vat milk from Italian Brown Friesian herds. factories which manufacture separately herds were used in study. Thirteen cheesemaking trials performed 10 different commercial factories. was carried out March to October 2003. For each trial factory, approximately 1100 kg cows processed parallel. animals...
The aim of this study was to determine the influence somatic cell content (SCC) milk on Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese yield, produced in commercial factories under field conditions. carried out following production 56 batches 13 by processing collected from Italian Friesian cattle herds. vat-milk (V-milk) used for making each batch obtained mixing evening (partially skimmed spontaneous separation fat overnight, natural creaming) and morning milk. were divided into 5 classes according SCC value...
The objective of this study was to estimate inbreeding coefficients in Holstein dairy cattle using imputed SNPs data. A data set 95,540 Italian cows from the routine genomic evaluations National Association Holstein, Brown, and Jersey Breeders were analyzed, with 84,445 SNP. Ten widely used estimators tested, including 4 PLINK v1.9 (F, FHAT1, FHAT2, FHAT3), 3 relationship matrix (GRM)-based methods [VanRaden's first method observed allele frequencies (FGRM) or fixed at 0.5 (FGRM05),...
The trends of the physicochemical properties, chemical constituents and main nitrogen fractions Haflinger mare milk were studied.Milk samples collected at d 4, 20, 40, 60, 80, 120, 150 180 post-partum, by hand-milking from 5 mares, 7-14 years old (4-11 parities) 400-490 kg live weight.Density, pH, titratable acidity, fat, protein, lactose ash varied significantly during first lactation period, while freezing point showed statistically no significant modifications.The contents protein...
Natural variations in milk minerals, their relationships, and associations with the coagulation process cheese-making traits present an opportunity for differentiation of destined high-quality natural products, such as traditional specialties or Protected Designation Origin (PDO) cheeses. The aim this study was to quantify effects native contents Ca, P, Na, K, Mg on 18 describing properties (MCP), curd firming over time (CFt) equation parameters, cheese yield (CY) measures, nutrient...
