概括
与单个箱相比,为马开放的谷仓住房减少了和痛. 虽然开放的马导致更多的伤害,但失去了的训练日仍然相似,这表明改善了马的福利,而不会影响表现.
科学领域:
- 马群福利和管理
- 兽医流行病学 兽医流行病学
背景情况:
- 开放的谷仓住房促进了马的社会互动和运动,潜在地提高了福利.
- 马业主担心,在开放式住房系统中增加伤害风险.
研究的目的:
- 为了比较活跃开放谷仓 (AOB) 和单箱 (BOX) 的马的健康事件.
主要方法:
- 一个结合前性 (9个月) 和后性 (2年) 的研究.
- 在一个农场研究了两个住房系统 (AOB和BOX).
- 记录了66匹 (前性) 和69匹 (后性) 马的,伤口,和失去了训练日.
主要成果:
- 与BOX相比,在AOB中观察到较低的腿和结肠的流行率 (p < 0.001).
- 在AOB (83%) 与BOX (52%) (p < 0.01) 中,经历健康事件的马的比例更高.
- 在AOB和BOX之间,在训练中损失的日数没有显著差异.
结论:
- 活跃的开放谷仓住房与和结肠的减少有关,这可能是由于增加了自由活动.
- 在AOB中增加的伤口患病率归因于马匹相互作用,但不会影响训练时间.

Boxplot
8.3K
Box plots (also called box-and-whisker plots or box-whisker plots) give an excellent graphical image of the concentration of the data. They also show how far the extreme values are from most data. A box plot is constructed from five values: the minimum value, the first quartile, the median, the third quartile, and the maximum value. We use these values to compare how close other data values are to them. To construct a box plot, use a horizontal or vertical number line and a rectangular box. The...

Physiological Barriers
3.6K
Physiological barriers are semi-permeable cellular structures restricting drug diffusion into intracellular compartments and tissues. There are six types of physiological barriers: blood endothelial, cell membrane, blood-brain, blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), blood-placenta, and blood-testis barriers.
The blood endothelial barrier is the most porous of these. It allows all small ionized, un-ionized, and lipophilic molecules to pass through the endothelial lining into the interstitial space...

Rural Health Centers
Rural health centers are specialized care facilities in remote locations with very few medical personnel. The primary care providers who run the centers are mostly Registered Nurse Practitioners. Here, emergency treatment is provided to critically ill or injured patients before they are transferred to the closest hospital. Fortunately, due to advancement in technology, many rural healthcare facilities and professionals have easy access to diagnostic and treatment...
