Multiple Intramedullary and Skewer Pin Fixation for Complex Humeral and Femoral Fractures in Cats and Small‐Breed Dogs

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Multiple intramedullary and skewer pin fixation provided satisfactory radiographic healing and functional outcomes in complex humeral and femoral fractures of cats and small‐breed dogs. This technique may represent a practical fixation option in selected clinical cases where conventional fixation methods are technically challenging.

Combined Agro‐Hydrological and Flood Modeling Highlights Seasonal and Crop‐Specific Flood Regulating Ecosystem Services

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Flood‐Regulating Ecosystem Services (FRES) are widely used to assess the capacity of ecosystems in retaining water during a storm and mitigating hydrological extremes. Agriculture can play a role in the regulation of flood hazard, but the role of specific crop types in influencing flood regulation in small agricultural catchments remains ...

Gastrostomy tube care, replacement, and removal: Expanding the registered dietitian nutritionist scope of practice to provide more comprehensive enteral nutrition support and ongoing patient‐centered care

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 1007-1019, August 2026.
Abstract The prevalence of community‐dwelling individuals dependent on home enteral nutrition (HEN), commonly delivered via gastrostomy tube (G‐tube), continues to rise. Fragmented healthcare approaches often lead to limited follow‐up support, inadequate education, and insufficient routine G‐tube maintenance. This can lead to preventable complications,
