Description
Summary:Additional file 2. Correlation between body condition score (BCS) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) concentrations in healthy Greenland sled dogs measured by type of management (Sirius (a), civilian (b)). Lines represent linear correlation between age and thyroid hormones. Shaded areas denote 95% confidence intervals. Civilian, referring to dogs owned by civilian Greenlanders; Sirius, referring to dogs owned by the special Danish military unit: Sled dog Patrol Sirius. TSH was found to be correlated with BCS with slopes of 0.015 nmol/L per BCS-point and − 0.038 ng/mL per BCS-point for Sirius GSD and civilian GSD, respectively.
