Abstract:
Because the time in which gestational loss or bovine abortion occurs is associated with multifactorial causes, the objective of this study was to assess multivariate relationships between the biochemical profile and acute phase proteins in aborted cows. We performed monitoring and monthly blood sampling during gestation in 140 dairy cows. A total of 18 cows aborted, which were considered ‘cases’; retrospectively, we used samples from 29 ‘control’ cows, which were taken at the same time. Thus, we compared multivariate relationships between the two groups, to evaluate variables potentially associated with cow abortion. We classified abortion as either infectious (due to DVB, leptospirosis or neosporosis) or non-infectious (protein or energetic imbalance evinced in metabolic profile). Of the 18 cows that aborted, there were 6 with evidence of positivity or seroconversion to the analysed diseases, 13 with evidence of metabolic protein imbalances, 7 with evidence of energy imbalances and 10 of them with combined situations. Case and control cows have significant differences (p<0.05) between their Principal Component Analysis (PCA), indicating that the two groups have different multivariate relationships. In aborted cows we identified a grouping of variables referring to protein metabolism asFibrinogen, Serum amyloid A, haptoglobin and titres for neosporosis and bovine viral diarrhoea virus; separated from others referring to energy and protein imbalance ashigh beta-hydroxy-butyrate, low cholesterol, low total protein. However, serum amyloid A and haptoglobin were not increased in aborted cows with clues of infectious diseases such as bovine viral diarrhoea virus, leptospirosis or neosporosis. In this way, it is evident that when the causality of abortions in a herd is studied, not only is it necessary to look for infectious diseases, but non-infectious causes can also be found occurring in parallel way. Serum amyloid A could be a candidate biomarker to differentiate a non-infectious abortion.

 Lateral Rock Characteristic Evidence of Hydrocarbon Restoration from Post-Stack Impedance Inversion: A Case Study of ZED-field Offshore Niger Delta Lateral predictions of rock properties that are descriptive of a reservoir have been studied using a model-established seismic inversion approach that was used to convert input seismic data into an acoustic impedance structure to optimize hydrocarbon restoration in the field. This was actualized by integrating wireline logs and 3D post stack seismic data procured from ZED-Field offshore Niger Delta. The inversion system employed in this study comprises of forward modelling of reflection coefficients starting with a low-frequency impedance model induced from well logs and convolution of the reflection coefficients with the source wavelet extracted from the seismic input. P-impedance analysis at reservoir C5000 delineated from the control well gave a near perfect correlation of 0.998109 (≈ 99.8 %) between the original P-impedance log, in...

Prediction of Ionic Liquids Methane Hydrate Average Depression Temperature via COSMO-RS COSMO-RS is a tool used to pre-screen and pair ionic liquids for gas hydrate mitigation. However, the ionic liquids properties estimated from COSMO-RS lack direct connectivity to the determination of the safety margin (hydrate depression temperature) the inhibitor can alter on the hydrate phase boundary conditions. In this study, a parametric function that relates COSMO-RS estimated ionic liquid surface area and hydrogen bonding energies to the methane hydrate average depression temperature (∆T) have been presented. The statistical model in this study was developed using multiple linear regression techniques on about 90 data samples at 10 wt.% ionic liquids. The developed model in this work accurately predicts the methane hydrate average depression temperature with standard error of 3.14 and average deviation error of 0.92. Also, the ionic liquid surface area and hydrogen bonding energy contribute t...

 How to Treat Cancer Properly Cancer is one of the deadliest diseases in the world, chemotherapy is effective under some conditions, but has too heavy side effects, and it is not effective to a considerable proportion of cases while the side effects are often life-threatening, drugs (not unhealthy addictive drugs mentioned in reference four, the drug in reference four only mean those makes people addictive but does no good to health, destroying health quickly) are not always available to improve the condition. However, sport is a potential treatment that is effective to cancer before the cancer is disseminated, this gets little attention but is true both in theory and practice. The physical activities that have moderate intensity and duration should have devastating effects on cancer cells, they make the body hot and reduce the nutritional resources that cancer cells can get, also renew the proteins in the body and improve one’s mood, cancer cells are hard to live when one is activ...
