The livestock model incorporated AEUs at the farming operation and distance to the patient residence; whereas the crop field model incorporated manure volume, crop field area, and distance to the patient residence.
We compared patients with one of two specific MRSA strains with patients with all other strains of MRSA isolates, using logistic regression that accounted for the sampling design, for two different exposure models: one based on the location of the animals (livestock model) and the other on crop field application of manure (crop field model).
Using livestock models to study human conditions is "something we should do more of," said McFadden.
Roberts, R. M., Yuan, Y., Genovese, N. & Ezashi, T. Livestock models for exploiting the promise of pluripotent stem cells.
Parameters for the Savanna and Woodland biome livestock models were determined using data from (Barnes et al. 2008) and Barnes et al., unpublished work).
Research in livestock models has begun to evaluate the role these miRNA have in skeletal muscle development.
Transmission of VSNJV in livestock models has recently been investigated, and multiple routes, consistent with vector-borne, mechanical, and contact transmission have been validated [ 5, 6, 10- 14, 14, 25, 26].
The majority of the caregivers, 243 (74%) and 240 (74%) had no formal education and, 270 (83%) and 246 (76%) had livestock in model and non model HH respectively.
A number of past events combined with overall technological progress in other fields have strongly contributed to the evolution of agricultural system modeling, including development of process-based bio-physical models of crops and livestock, statistical models based on historical observations, and economic optimization and simulation models at household and regional to global scales.
The method is applied on a large scale livestock ventilation model.
Indeed, this simple "cost benefit" approach forms the very foundations of the industrial livestock industry model -- and it doesn't just stop at animal welfare.
