Ruminant species are important to human society due to their ability to convert human-inedible sources of energy and protein to human-edible food. Greater efficiency of meat and milk production will require the management of the complex reproductive biology of many cattle with a limited capacity and limited budget within a smaller, hotter, and more climatically erratic land area. The over-riding drivers of new reproductive technologies in North America will be smaller economic margins, larger herd size, fewer agricultural workers per farm, and a greater reliance on automation to offset the reduced agricultural labor force.

Introduction: Fluid assessment and management is a key aspect of good dialysis care and is affected by patient-level characteristics and potentially centre-level practices. In this secondary analysis of the BISTRO trial we wished to establish whether centre-level practices with the potential to affect fluid status were stable over the course of the trial and explore if they had any residual associations with participant's fluid status.
Methods: Two surveys (S) of fluid management practices were conducted in 32 participating centres during the trial, (S1: 2017-18 and S2: 2021-22).
