This comprehensive textbook provides detailed information on calving management in dairy and beef cattle. Enriched with diverse learning opportunities, it conveys the fundamentals of reproductive anatomy and physiology, parturition, birth complications and various obstetrical manoeuvres, as well as dam and calf care. In order to promote best practices in this specialized subject, the book covers all significant points from conception to calving and the perinatal period. Clear chapter structures, a wealth of illustrations and videos, obstetrical case studies, and question-and-answer lists round out the reading experience, making the book a unique source of information on how to support mother cows and obtain viable offspring. In addition, readers can download the free Springer Nature Flashcards App and benefit from 77 digital study questions to test their knowledge. Calving is a significant event in terms of providing care and nutrition for mother cows and calves. The reproductive health status in cattle farms is crucial to immediately initiate lactation and new conception. Assistance by technical personnel, dystocia and stillbirth occurrences can reach ca. 50%, 14% and 6% of parturitions, respectively. Hence, zootechnical and veterinary management of calving is of great importance for animal welfare. This textbook makes a valuable contribution to teaching and everyday practice in cattle medicine and obstetrics. Veterinary students, residents, practitioners and technical personnel will discover it to be a rich learning and reference resource.

Factors Affecting Calf Crop summarizes the latest information available from leading cattle physiologists and geneticists regarding factors known to influence the production of live calves at weaning. You get practical information on management techniques for improving reproduction efficiency in the herd. You'll also learn about the functioning of the reproductive system and how this may affect reproductive processes in the cow herd. Managers will benefit from a clearer understanding of the factors known to limit efficient reproduction, while veterinarians and other professionals who advise cattlemen will appreciate the substantial reference material and color photographs for defining cow condition scores. Color photographs are also used to illustrate the discussions of testicular thermographies and their applications. Other chapters in the book cover developments in improving reproductive performance of the replacement heifer, the brood cow, and the bull. Topics on reproduction include physiology/endocrinology, the use of growth promotants, genetics and physiological and economic considerations in selecting the age to breed heifers, heritability of fertility, length of the breeding season, prepartum and postpartum nutrition, nursing by the calf, cloning of embryos, and much more.

The use of injectables, known as dermal fillers, is becoming ever more popular in aesthetic medicine. Full-face and full-body treatments using such fillers are increasingly substituting for various surgical techniques; not only do they provide immediate results at a lower cost, but they also avoid the use of general anesthesia and shorten the recovery period. In addition, dermal fillers can be successfully used for body remodeling, for example in patients with bow legs and those requiring breast remodeling.This book outlines the fundamental principles of the use of different fillers and injection techniques in the treatment of facial and body areas. An impressive collection of sequential color photographs illustrate the procedures step by step and demonstrate the results. The volume will be an invaluable tool for aesthetic doctors, practicing dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and all other physicians interested in the field of aesthetic medicine.

Yellow Calf's Medicine is the sequel to The Unceded Territory. Set in the fall of 1876, it describes the continuing struggle of Rufus Randall and Sarah Locke and their small group to establish a ranch on the Yellowstone River after the defeat of Custer and the continuing efforts of the Sioux to hold on to their life in the Black Hills. Randall continues to suffer from a wound received on the Little Big Horn the night of Custer's defeat which threatens to leave him partially paralyzed. Needing food for the ranch for the coming winter and medical treatment, he signs up with the Fifth Infantry, a colored regiment campaigning against the Sioux under Colonel Nelson Miles, to guide groups of soldiers hauling supplies and to carry dispatches. He partners with Mr. Moore, an Army scout, to guide the soldiers into the town of Deadwood. There Randall finds his friend, Bill Hickok, dead and the town in the hands of the men who attacked Sarah at the ranch in the spring. He returns to the ranch in time to help Sarah defeat a group of criminals trying to take their land, then heads south with the Army hoping to find a doctor that will treat his wound. When no doctor will attempt the operation, he hears of a legendary Indian medicine man, Yellow Calf, who is rumored to be able to cure anything. As winter begins, Sarah goes with Randall to find Yellow Calf and a cure for Randall.
