Forty multigravid ewes with naturally-occurring ovine pregnancy toxaemia were treated with a concentrated oral dextrose and electrolyte solution administered three times daily an oral and a single subcutaneous injection of either a slow release formulation of 160mg recombinant bovine somatotropin (n = 17) or placebo injection (n = 23). A higher recovery rate was achieved in ewes treated with 160mg recombinant bovine somatotropin compared with controls (58.8 versus 34.8%, respectively), and more lambs were born alive and survived to 24th from treated ewes (15 of 46 lambs; 32.6%) compared with control ewes (12 of 62 lambs; 19.4%) but the treatment effects were not significantly different from the control group (P > 0.05).
40只自然发生绵羊妊娠毒血症的经产母羊,每天三次口服浓缩葡萄糖和电解质溶液,并分别口服和皮下注射一次160mg重组牛生长激素缓释制剂(n = 17)或安慰剂注射(n = 23)。与对照组相比,用160mg重组牛生长激素治疗的母羊恢复率更高(分别为58.8%和34.8%),与对照母羊(62只羔羊中的12只;19.4%)相比,治疗母羊出生时存活并存活至第24天的羔羊更多(46只羔羊中的15只;32.6%),但治疗效果与对照组无显著差异(P>0.05)。
