Variability of daily feed intake as an indicator of resilience in Pietrain pigs by C. Casto-Rebollo, P. Nuñez, S. Gol, J. Reixach, N. Ibáñez-Escriche

“…The LnVar of deviations from the population mean was the most promising indicators (LnVar-Pop) for disease resilience, as it was the RI that better captured differences in progeny mortality. Furthermore, these results suggest a common biological basis for RIs and FET of interest to breeding programmes. …”

Insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction in individuals with normal glucose tolerance but elevated 1-h post-load plasma glucose by Qianwen Nie, Xue Jin, Yahui Mu, Youyuan Huang, Aimei Dong

“…ObjectiveDiabetes and its complications impose a significant burden on public health, necessitating early identification and intervention, yet current prediabetes diagnostic criteria may not fully capture all high-risk individuals. Evaluate and compare insulin resistance (IR) and β-cell dysfunction in individuals with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and 1-hour post-load plasma glucose (1-h PG) ≥ 8.6 mmol/L versus < 8.6 mmol/L, as well as prediabetes based on IFG and/or IGT.Research design and methodsThis retrospective study included individuals at risk for diabetes who underwent an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), classified as having NGT or prediabetes according to ADA criteria. …”
