A total of 335 records of swine litters from 102 Large White females that farrowed between 1985 and 1996, born in the seasons of september to february and march to august, in the Recife city, in Pernambuco state (Brazil), were analysed. The objective was to compare regression equations to predict stillborn rates. Angular transformation (TA), a generalized linear model (GLM) with binomial distribution and logit link (BL), a Poisson GLM with log link (PL), a mixed GLM (GLMM) with binomial […]
