Log10-scale LSM (accounting for parity and body condition score) ± SE of serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) concentrations in 42 Holstein cows. Experimental groups consisted of control (CON; n = 22) and meloxicam treated cows (MEL, n = 20). MEL received meloxicam (0.5 mg/kg of body weight) once daily for 4 days (10 to 13 days postpartum). MEL had higher serum IGF-1 concentrations when compared to CON at 11, 12, 13, and 14 days postpartum (P = 0.04, 0.002, 0.0003, and 0.007, respectively).
