Role of calcium in standardbred trotter exertional rhabdomyolysis
No full textn this work we report observations carried out in a standardbred trotter stable, where we registered a high incidence rate of myoglobinuria. The horses showed, after few minutes of training, stiffness, muscular pain, reluctance to movement, extreme perspiration and myoglobinuria. The analysis of data pertinent to stable management, training and quanti-qualitative nutritional supply allowed to notice a low lack of phosphorus (-11.9%) and a high lack of calcium (-30.7%). Therefore, we added in the diet 50 g/head/day of dicalcium phosphate. After 30 days from diet change, symptomatology totally disappeared and seric values of CPK, AST and LDH returned in physiologic ranges. This work underlines the importance of calcium in training standardbred trotter nutritio
Il ruolo del calcio nella rabdomiolisi da sforzo del trottatore
No full textIn questo lavoro sono riportate le osservazioni effettuate in una scuderia di ventiquattro trottatori che presentavano un’elevata incidenza di casi di mioglobinuria. I cavalli mostravano, dopo pochi minuti di allenamento, rigidità e dolore muscolare, riluttanza al
movimento, sudorazione profusa e mioglobinuria. L’analisi della gestione della scuderia, delle modalità di allenamento e degli
apporti quantiqualitativi con la razione ha permesso di rilevare solo una lieve carenza in fosforo (–11,9%) ed una rilevante carenza di calcio (–30,7%) rispetto ai fabbisogni. Sono stati aggiunti alla razione 50 g/capo/giorno di fosfato bicalcico. Dopo 30 giorni
dall’integrazione, si è avuta la totale remissione della sintomatologia clinica ed un ritorno delle concentrazioni sieriche di CPK, LDH
e AST nei valori fisiologici. Questo contributo sottolinea l’importanza del calcio nella nutrizione dei trottatori in attività.In this work we report observations carried out in a standard bred trotters stable, where we registered a high incidence rate of

Therefore, we added in the diet 50 g per animal per day of calcium phosphate dibasic.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Role of Corn Silage in the Sustainability of Dairy Buffalo Systems and New Perspective of Allocation Criterion
No full textThis paper aims to compare the cradle-to-farm gate sustainability of two dairy buffalo systems, according to life cycle assessment guidelines (LCA). Primary data were obtained by five intensive farms with feeding plans based on non-corn silage (NCS) and five with corn silage (CS) based rations. Both systems were characterized by the presence of two farms with wheat grain yields, sold for human consumption. All the farms were in Southern Italy and seven were included in the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) area of “Mozzarella di bufala campana”. The functional unit (FU) adopted was 1 kg of normalized buffalo milk (NBM); impact categories investigated were: global warming potential (GWP), acidification potential (AP), eutrophication potential (EP), agricultural land occupation (ALO), water depletion (WD). Two different economic allocation procedures were tested: a first step aimed to mitigate the environmental impacts sharing among wheat grain, where present, and milk. The second stage involved culled buffalo cows. Neither the allocation nor the combination of allocation and feeding system showed significant effects (p > 0.05). Corn silage-based system (CS) showed lower impacts than non-corn silage (NCS) one for AP and EP (p = 0.002 and p = 0.051 respectively). High average dry matter yield per hectare of corn silage probably had a positive effect on SO2 and PO43− equivalents
