One of the guinea pigs was studied on five occasions over a period of 8 days. Some of the data for animals of less than 50 days gestation have been reported previously (6). The character- istics of all of the study animals are presented in Table 1 , including gestational ages and the...
In order to define the metabolic requirements of the gravid uterus during this period of rapid growth, catheters were placed in the femoral artery and uterine vein of guinea pigs at gestational ages ranging from 40 days to term (68 days). The animals were studied in the unstressed state ...

Hence, renal redox status is likely an early determinant of morbidity in small...
The three sows were clinically healthy during the whole study period. No rise of rectal temperature was noticed in any of the three sows. The operation wounds were slightly swollen until 48 hours after the operations and somewhat painful at palpation. The PCV1- and PCV2-specific IPMA Ab titr...
Alveolar volume within the MG of DOM-treated gilts was increased during the treatment period (P < 0.001), whereas epithelial prolif-eration was unaffected by treatment. Exposure to DOM during late gestation augmented the postpartum increase in mRNA expression within the MG for p-casein (P < ...

Hyperanxiety in the adult PS offspring could also be avoided if, as neonates, they were handled daily for 10 days, or given an antidepressant, amitriptyline for 4-5 weeks in the prepubertal period. Increased fear of novelty in adult PS rats could also be abolished by the intracerebro-...

Of 26 total offspring, ll were stillborn, three died in utero, and six died in the neonatal period; three had congenital cataracts. Eight of 29 pups born to sham inoculated animals were stillborn. An additional animal, infected at five weeks gestation, was sacrificed six days after inoculation...
Of the 273 newborns with confirmed diagnosis of NEC in the study period, 163 non-SGA newborns were excluded. At the diagnosis of NEC, infants with spontaneous intestinal perforation or intestinal malformation (aproctia, intestinal atresia, Hirschsprung’s disease) (n = 8), with Bell’s st...
