Kuv tsis tau ua rau American Academy Veterinary Nutrition Symposium xyoo no, tab sis tsis ntev tas los no kuv tau tshuaj xyuas qee qhov kev tshawb fawb uas tau hais muaj. Kuv xav qhia cov txiaj ntsig ntawm ib txoj kev tshawb nrhiav uas saib qhov sib txawv ntawm lub cev sib xyaw ntawm cov miv hauv tsev, neutered miv, thiab sab nraum zoov, cov miv.

Cov kws tshawb nrhiav tau siv qee yam hu ua dual lub zog hluav taws xob X-ray absorptiometry los txiav txim qhov feem pua ntawm cov miv lub cev uas tau tsim los ntawm cov roj ntsha ua rau tiv thaiv cov nqaij ntshiv. Tus 16 nyob sab hauv tsev, neutered miv yog cov tsiaj tshwj xeeb nrog tus tswv thaum 21 sab nraum zoov, miv raug tawm los ntawm cov ntxiab-neuter-tso tawm. Txhua tus miv yog ntawm 1 txog 6 xyoo.

Hauv kev xyaum teeb tsa, cov kws kho tsiaj siv cov qhab nia los ntawm lub cev (BCS) los txiav txim xyuas seb tus tsiaj ntawd puas tau qis dua, dhau ntawm, lossis ntawm lawv lub cev qhov hnyav. BCS ntawm 5 tawm ntawm 9 yog suav hais tias yog qhov zoo tagnrho. Cov lej qis dua qhia tau tias lub cev yuag zuj zus thaum lub xov tooj ntau dua los cuam tshuam nrog kev nce rog. Cov miv hauv qhov kev tshawb fawb no tau txheeb xyuas tag nrho kom muaj cov qhab nia ntawm lub cev ntawm 4 lossis 5 tawm ntawm 9. Hauv lwm lo lus, cov miv no nyob nruab nrab kov rau ntawm tawv nqaij.

Cov kev tshawb fawb qhia tau hais tias sab nraum zoov, cov miv tus miv muaj qhov muaj roj tsawg dua (17.3%) thiab cov roj ntsha ntau dua (79.9%) dua li cov ua nyob sab hauv tsev, neutered miv (22.1%) thiab (74.6%) feem. Tsis tas li ntawd qhov nruab nrab lub cev hnyav ntawm sab hauv tsev, neutered miv yog 9.2 phaus tab sis tsuas yog 7.3 phaus sab nraum zoov, tus miv ntxim hlub.

Dab tsi yog qhov txaus nyiam tshaj plaws yog tias cov kev sib txawv loj no tau pom txawm tias qhov nruab nrab BCS ntawm sab nraum zoov, sab nraum zoov, thiab sab hauv tsev, neutered miv yog qhov tseem ceeb. Qhov no ua rau nug txog qhov ua tau zoo ntawm BCS ua ib txoj hauv kev rau kev ntsuas lub cev, tab sis vim peb tsis muaj qhov kev xaiv tau yooj yim, peb tau khuam nrog dab tsi peb tau txais. Tej zaum nyob hauv tsev, neutered miv peb yuav tsum xav txog 4 tawm ntawm 9 es tsis yog 5 tawm 9 ua peb qhov "zoo tshiab."

Kuv xav tias qhov sib txawv ntawm lub cev sib xyaw hauv ob pawg ntawm cov miv no tshwm sim los ntawm kev sib xyaw ntawm kev noj zaub mov noj, qib kev ua si, thiab qhov xwm txheej hauv keeb kwm. Kuv tsis yog pib los qhia tias cov neeg lag luam yov yaug thiab txhim kho lawv tus miv. (Koj puas tau sim nyob nrog tom miv lossis tus poj huab tais?) Yog li no, peb tau nyob nrog kev noj zaubmov thiab kev tawm dag zog uas yog tus yuam sij los ua kom miv yuag thiab noj qab nyob zoo… li qub.
