Experimental comparison of caudal wedge ostectomy to cranial wedge ostectomy for surgical treatment of overriding/impinging spinous processes in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Caudal wedge ostectomy has not been investigated for overriding or impinging spinous processes (SPs). Objectives To establish the feasibility of caudal wedge ostectomy and compare measures of surgical trauma and error between hypothetical caudal and cranial wedge ostectomies on SPs of different inclinations.

Flagellins as Vaccine Adjuvants and Cancer Immunotherapy: Recent Advances and Future Prospects

Immunology, EarlyView.
The figure depicts the role of flagellin in immune cells. Flagellin interacts with TLR5, resulting in the formation of homodimers and the recruitment of MyD88, which activates the IκB and MAPK signalling pathways. This results in the activation of NF‐κB and AP‐1, producing TNF‐α, IL‐6, IL‐8, and IL‐12.

Chance‐Corrected Interrater Agreement Statistics for Two‐Rater Dichotomous Responses: A Method Review With Comparative Assessment Under Possibly Correlated Decisions

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Measurement of the interrater agreement (IRA) is critical for assessing the reliability and validity of ratings in various disciplines. While numerous IRA statistics have been developed, there is a lack of guidance on selecting appropriate measures especially when raters' decisions could be correlated. To address this gap, we review a family of

Comparing Genome Sequencing Methods to Reconstruct the Spread of Piscine Myocarditis Virus in Ireland

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Piscine myocarditis virus (PMCV), a double‐stranded RNA virus, is the causative agent of cardiomyopathy syndrome (CMS) in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar, which was first reported in Ireland in 2012. PMCV continues to be a disease threat to Atlantic salmon aquaculture in Ireland, and as such, it is of growing importance to understand how the virus

Prevalence and Associations of Vaping in Young People Entering Youth Custody in New South Wales, Australia—A Retrospective Cross‐Sectional Study

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Australia is a leader in rates of youth vaping. Previous research has shown that at‐risk youth include young women, cigarette smokers, and young people experiencing mental distress. These risk factors suggest that young people entering custody in New South Wales, Australia, are likely to have high vaping rates, but the research is lacking.
