The influence of equine hoof conformation on the initiation and progression of laminitis
Abstract Background The health and performance of horses are significantly affected by diseases associated with the hoof. Laminitis is a critical hoof disease that causes pain and, potentially, severe hoof and bone pathology. Objective To generate an equine hoof finite element (FE) model to investigate the impact of normal and toe‐in hoof conformations

Computed tomography findings in horses presented with signs of head‐shaking
Abstract Background Trigeminal nerve‐mediated head‐shaking (TNMH) in horses is a diagnosis made by exclusion. Computed tomography (CT) is frequently used to identify any disease process that could cause the clinical signs of head‐shaking. Although abnormalities are frequently identified, it is unknown whether treatment of these conditions improves ...

Currently, the minimal functional adrenal remnant size, and the impact of intraoperative imaging technologies on remnant function after partial adrenalectomy, is unknown. In the present experimental study, intraoperative perfusion assessment, using quantitative fluorescence imaging, confocal laser endomicroscopy and contrast‐enhanced CT, enabled ...

Tumour growth rate of carcinoma of the colon and rectum: retrospective cohort study
Few studies have evaluated the growth pattern of colorectal cancer. Forty‐three patients who underwent CT twice more than 5 weeks apart were included over a 2‐year interval. The median doubling time was 211 days, with a concerning suggestion of tumour progression.

Time to definitive care within major trauma networks in England
This article describes timelines from emergency service activation to urgent surgery for seriously injured patients in England following implementation of regional trauma networks in 2012. Analysis showed that seriously injured patients undergoing secondary transfer to definitive care had delayed imaging, delayed surgery and increased mortality.

This RCT compared intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) alone with IPC plus enoxaparin for 1 week after surgery in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for gastric or colorectal malignancy. Although VTE occurred in 4·8 per cent of the ICP‐alone group and 3·3 per cent of the ICP with enoxaparin ...

Deconditioning during neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a possible parameter for predicting operative outcomes. This retrospective cohort study aimed to assess body composition changes in patients with gastro‐oesophageal cancer during neoadjuvant therapy and investigate their association with postoperative complications. Skeletal muscle index values decrease

Diagnostic accuracy of acute diverticulitis with unenhanced low‐dose CT
Unenhanced low‐dose CT (LDCT) is as accurate as contrast‐enhanced standard‐dose CT (SDCT) for detection of acute colonic diverticulitis. However, smaller complications, such as pericolic abscesses and small amounts of extraluminal air, can be missed.

Fifty patients were enrolled and randomized to laparoscopic hernia repair with conventional fascial closure or a peritoneal bridging approach. Follow‐up by CT at 12 months (primary endpoint) revealed no seroma in either group, but seroma was detected clinically in the early postoperative period after 1 month (4 of 25 versus 0 of 25 patients in fascial ...

This study investigated whether the total tumour volume (TTV) of colorectal liver metastases could predict patient survival after hepatic resection. Associations were identified between TTV and recurrence‐free survival, overall survival and unresectable recurrence after primary hepatic resection.
