Proteoglycans in articular cartilage and their contribution to chondral injury and repair mechanisms
(MDPI, 2023)
Proteoglycans are vital components of the extracellular matrix in articular cartilage, providing biomechanical properties crucial for its proper functioning. They are key players in chondral diseases, specifically in the ...
Current insights in the repeat breeder cow syndrome
(MDPI, 2023)
Cows can have difficulties becoming pregnant, and in certain cases, these reproductive failures do not have an evident cause. Furthermore, when these failures are repeated three or more times with estrous cycles of normal ...
Colostrum quality assessment in dairy goats: use of an on-farm optical refractometer
(MDPI, 2023)
Failure of passive immunity transfer is one of the main causes of increased susceptibility to infectious agents in newborn kids. To ensure successful transfer of passive immunity, kids need to be fed high-quality colostrum, ...
Development of a prediction model for short-term remission of patients with Crohn’s disease treated with anti-TNF drugs
(MDPI, 2023)
Therapy with anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) has dramatically changed the natural history of Crohn’s disease (CD). However, these drugs are not without adverse events, and up to 40% of patients could lose efficacy in the ...
Preliminary feasibility of near-infrared spectroscopy to authenticate grazing in dairy goats through milk and faeces analysis
(MDPI, 2023)
Consumers are increasingly prone to request information about the production systems of the food they buy. For this purpose, certification and authentication methodologies are necessary not only to protect the choices of ...
Immunohistochemical analysis of knee chondral defect repair after autologous particulated cartilage and platelet-rich plasma treatment in sheep
(MDPI, 2023)
This study performs an analysis that will enable the evaluation of the quality, durability, and
structure of repaired cartilaginous extracellular matrix tissue using an autologous-based particulated
autograft cartilage ...
Three-dimensional volume rendering in computed tomography for evaluation of the temporomandibular joint in dogs
(MDPI, 2023)
Based on computed tomography (CT) images, volume rendering was used to obtain a three-dimensional representation of data (3DVR). The aims of this study included: describing the bone anatomy of the temporomandibular joint ...
Environmental management of equine asthma
(MDPI, 2023)
Environmental practices related to the inhalation of airborne dust have been identified as the main cause of equine asthma (EA) and reasonably, they are truly relevant in its treatment and control, especially for horses ...
Dorsal duplication of paw pads in the four limbs of a cat
(Wiley, 2023)
An approximately one-year-old intact male domestic short hair cat was presented with plantigrade stance and dorsally duplicated paw pads in all limbs covered by hyperkeratotic material. True nails were rudimentary and ...
Targeted glutamate supply boosts insulin concentrations, ovarian activity, and ovulation rate in yearling goats during the anestrous season
(MDPI, 2023)
The neuroendocrine regulation of the seasonal reproductive axis requires the integration of internal and external signals to ensure synchronized physiological and behavioral responses. Seasonal reproductive changes contribute ...
