1 Subclinical hypocalcemia, plasma biochemical parameters, lipid metabolism, postpartum disease, and fertility in postparturient dairy cows  W.G. Chamberlin, J.R. Middleton, J.N. Spain, G.C. Johnson, M.R. Ellersieck, P. Pithua  Journal of Dairy Science  Volume 96, Issue 11, Pages (November 2013) DOI: /jds Copyright © 2013 American Dairy Science Association Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 (a) Least squares means ± SE for whole-blood ionized Ca concentration (mmol/L) versus day relative to calving by group (*P<0.01). (b) Least squares means ± SE for plasma total Ca concentration (mg/dL) versus day relative to calving by group (*P<0.01).

3 Figure 2 Least squares means ± SE for plasma NEFA concentration (μmol/L) versus day relative to calving by group (*P=0.02; +P=0.06). Whole-blood ionized Ca concentrations within 24h after calving were <1.0mmol/L for hypocalcemic cows and ≥1mmol/L for normocalcemic cows.

4 Figure 3 Least squares means ± SE for liver lipid content determined by histologic evaluation (% lipid) versus day relative to calving by group (*P≤0.02). Whole-blood ionized Ca concentrations within 24h after calving were <1.0mmol/L for hypocalcemic cows and ≥1mmol/L for normocalcemic cows.
