Estimation of the true prevalence of infected individuals involves the application of a diagnostic test to a population and adjusting according to test performance, sensitivity and specificity. Bayesian latent class analysis for the estimation of her...

Associations between routinely collected dairy herd improvement data and insemination outcome in UK dairy herds (2018)
Journal Article
HUDSON, C., & GREEN, M. (2018). Associations between routinely collected dairy herd improvement data and insemination outcome in UK dairy herds. Journal of Dairy Science, 101(12), 11262-11274. https://doi.org/10.3168/jds.2017-13962

Milk constituent concentrations in samples taken during early lactation are often used to generate proxy measures for energy balance in dairy herds. This study aimed to explore associations between these and other measures routinely recorded by dairy...

Use of statistical modelling to investigate the pathogenesis of claw horn disruption lesions in dairy cattle (2018)
Journal Article
Randall, L., Green, M., & Huxley, J. (2018). Use of statistical modelling to investigate the pathogenesis of claw horn disruption lesions in dairy cattle. Veterinary Journal, 238, 41-48. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2018.07.002

Claw horn disruption lesions (CHDLs) in dairy cattle account for a large proportion of lameness. The aim of this review is to provide an update on the evidence surrounding the pathogenesis of CHDLs, in the context of how statistical modelling has con...

Associations between dairy cow inter-service interval and probability of conception (2018)
Journal Article
Remnant, J., Green, M., Huxley, J., & Hudson, C. (2018). Associations between dairy cow inter-service interval and probability of conception. Theriogenology, 114, 324-329. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.theriogenology.2018.03.029

Recent research has indicated that the interval between inseminations in modern dairy cattle is often longer than the commonly accepted cycle length of 18–24 days. This study analysed 257,396 inseminations in 75,745 cows from 312 herds in England and... Read More about Associations between dairy cow inter-service interval and probability of conception.
