Observations on Two Previously Unreported Anatomical Factors Relating to the Esophagogastric Junction

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The esophagogastric junction (EGJ) is the anatomical zone where the esophagus ends and the stomach begins. Its competence in preventing gastro‐esophageal reflux has been shown to depend on a number of factors which have been extensively investigated and widely accepted.

Roux‐en‐Y gastrojejunostomy and jejunojejunostomy for pyloric obstruction bypass in a horse and a foal

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gastric outflow obstruction in horses is a rare but challenging condition, often resulting from either congenital anomalies or acquired lesions such as chronic ulceration or pyloric polyps. Conventional surgical bypass procedures, including gastrojejunostomy (GJ) or gastroduodenostomy and less commonly duodenojejunostomy, can ...

The Dead Donor Rule and Normothermic Regional Perfusion

Hastings Center Report, EarlyView.
Abstract Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) can be used after the circulatory determination of death to prevent or minimize organ damage before the donor's organs are retrieved. It involves restarting circulation within the donor's body to reperfuse abdominal and thoracic organs while occluding the arteries that supply oxygenated blood to the brain ...

Effect of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation on physical activity and pain evaluation in osteoarthritic dogs

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Osteoarthritis (OA) causes chronic pain and reduces welfare in dogs. Standard treatments may be inadequate or associated with adverse effects, prompting investigation of alternative therapies. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a non‐pharmacological pain management method, but evidence for its efficacy in canine ...
