Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Estrogen plays an important role in regulating energy and fat metabolism, and maintaining normal body composition in both female and male animals. Both soy isoflavones and exogenous estrogen have been shown to significantly reduce body fat accumulation in ovariectomized rodents, indicating soy isoflavones may act as estrogen agonist in regulating energy and fat metabolism, and body composition. Obesity has been associated with many chronic diseases in dogs, and spaying/neutering is among the risk factors for overweight and obesity in dogs. There is no literature concerning the effects of soy isoflavones on weight gain in spayed/neutered dogs. In this study, we fed spayed/neutered Labrador Retrievers with either a control diet (Ctl, n=13) or a test diet containing soy isoflavones (Iso, n=14) that came from soy germ meal. Both diets had similar amounts of dietary protein, fat and caloric density. The dogs were fed 25% more than their maintenance energy requirement. At the end of the 12‐month study, the dogs in the Ctl group gained twice as much body weight as the dogs in the Iso group (5.54 vs. 2.68 kg, p < 0.05). In addition, soy isoflavones‐containing diet did not significantly affect total white blood cells, thyroid hormone profile, and many other blood chemical parameters. For the first time, the results from our study showed that soy isoflavones‐containing diet was very effective in reducing body fat accumulation in spayed/neutered dogs.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
