Rapid versus gradual external ventricular drain weaning: a general review of best practices [PDF]

Journal of Neurocritical Care
Rapid versus gradual external ventricular drain (EVD) weaning methods have been widely debated, aiming to establish a standard clinical practice. The techniques used in each approach offer their own set of benefits and associated risks.

The Maturing Development of Gut Microbiota in Commercial Piglets during the Weaning Transition

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Early weaned piglets are vulnerable to diarrhea because of weaning stress and immaturity of intestinal tract. Compelling evidence suggests that gut microbiota is vital to host health.

The dynamics of the piglet gut microbiome during the weaning transition in association with health and nutrition

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2018
BackgroundUnderstanding the composition of the microbial community and its functional capacity during weaning is important for pig production as bacteria play important roles in the pig’s health and growth performance.

Presence of Adult Companion Goats Favors the Rumen Microbial and Functional Development in Artificially Reared Kids

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
Newborn dairy ruminants are usually separated from their dams after birth and fed on milk replacer. This lack of contact with adult animals may hinder the rumen microbiological and physiological development.

Lactobacillus plantarum PFM 105 Promotes Intestinal Development Through Modulation of Gut Microbiota in Weaning Piglets

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Lactobacillus plantarum is a widespread bacterial species and is commonly used as a probiotic. L. plantarum PFM105 was isolated from the rectum of a healthy sow. Here we found that L.

Late weaning is associated with increased microbial diversity and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii abundance in the fecal microbiota of piglets

Animal Microbiome, 2020
In pig production systems, weaning is a crucial period characterized by nutritional, environmental, and social stresses. Piglets transition from a milk-based diet to a solid, more complex plant-based diet, and their gut physiology must adapt accordingly.

Weaning Alters Intestinal Gene Expression Involved in Nutrient Metabolism by Shaping Gut Microbiota in Pigs

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Weaning transition usually impairs intestinal architecture and functions and results in gut-associated disorders in pigs. Understanding the changes in intestinal transcriptome and gut microbiota during weaning transition is important for elucidating the ...

Associations between Features of External Ventricular Drain Management, Disposition, and Shunt Dependence

Journal of Neuroanaesthesiology and Critical Care, 2021
Background In the United States, nearly 25,000 patients annually undergo percutaneous ventriculostomy for the management of increased intracranial pressure with little consensus on extraventricular drain management.
