Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Clinical and electrocardiographic predictors of T wave oversensing in patients with subcutaneous ICD

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2016
Background: T wave oversensing (TWOS) is a major drawback of the subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD). Data on predictors of TWOS in S-ICD recipients are limited.

Multivariate Analysis of Hematological Stress Biomarkers and Welfare Domains in Organic and Intensive Pig Farming in Italy: A Pilot Study

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Intensive or organic farming systems may expose pigs to management or environmental challenges. Our preliminary results concluded that organic farming might enhance adaptive immune function, showing that improvements in welfare can translate into measurable immunological benefits, based on the correlation between welfare assessment and physiological ...

No Significant Difference in Cost or Outcomes at 1‐Year Minimum Follow‐Up After Arthroscopic Partial Meniscectomy Comparing 1.9 mm Distal Chip‐on‐Tip Needlescope Versus 4 mm Glass Rod Lens Arthroscope: Both Treatments Are Highly Cost‐Effective

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate cost, outcomes, and incremental cost‐effectiveness of arthroscopic partial meniscectomy comparing visualization using a 1.9 mm distal chip‐on‐tip needlescope versus a standard 4 mm glass rod lens arthroscope. Methods We retrospectively reviewed prospectively collected data (from a larger randomized controlled trial) on patients ...

Long-term incidence of inappropriate shocks in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators in clinical practice-an underestimated complication?

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are life-saving device therapy, and patients often carry devices for decades with interim pulse generator exchanges. Inappropriate shocks are associated with impaired quality of life and increased

Dissecting the dissection laboratory: Elements for designing a human anatomy laboratory

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The human anatomy dissection laboratory is a critical component of anatomical and medical education. Development, maintenance, and stocking of these laboratory spaces have unique demands, with all of the challenges in running a laboratory with Biosafety Laboratory Level 2 (BSL‐2) classification, housing a large volume of tissues saturated with

Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator and Inappropriate Therapy: “Black Box” Examination Yielded Both Human and Technical Causes

Clinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports, 2013
We report on a 70-year-old male patient who was recipient of GEM III DR 7275 Cardioverter Defibrillator, and who presented with inappropriate shocks. The patient had a documented slow ventricular tachycardia (VT), and the device was programmed to detect ...
