“…Blood flow through the splanchnic tissues Observations were taken from 28 publications concerning growing steers, heifers or cows to build a file of 120 observations (Baird et al, 1975;Casse et al, 1994;Early et al, 1987;Eisemann and Huntington, 1994;Eisemann and Nienaber, 1990;Gross et al, 1988;Guerino et al, 1991;Hammond et al, 1987;Harmon et al, 1988Harmon et al, , 1993Huntington, 1982Huntington, , 1984Huntington, , 1987Huntington and Prior, 1983;Huntington et al, 1983Huntington et al, , 1990Krehbiel et al, 1992;Kreikemeier et al, 1991;Lomax and Baird, 1983;McGuire et al, 1989;Prior ual (1986). Interestingly, these flows could also be fitted with S-shaped curves (Moore, 1985 (Sauvant, 1994), the level of energy intake which increased hepatic and portal blood flows.…”
