This study sought to investigate the consequences of the induced feed restriction during the transition period on the mRNA abundance of genes entangled in lipogenesis and lipolysis in the tail adipose of fat-tailed sheep. Twenty fat-tailed ewes were randomised into the control (Control; n = 10) and restriction (Restriction; n = 10) groups. Control animals were fed 100% of the balanced diet pre-(Week -5 to parturition) and post-partum (parturition to Week 5).

Article Synopsis
  • Epidural extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) is a rare condition where blood cell production outside the bone marrow causes spinal cord compression, and this review aims to summarize its clinical features and management.
  • The study analyzed data from 50 articles involving 54 patients, primarily young males, who presented with symptoms like motor/sensory deficits and back pain due to spinal masses.
  • Findings suggest that a combination of surgical intervention and other treatments leads to better outcomes, encouraging timely surgery to improve neurological recovery and reduce complications in affected patients.

This case report describes a rare presentation of a mycotic anterior spinal artery aneurysm of the thoracic spine presenting as a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Isolated anterior spinal artery aneurysms are exceedingly rare. While this condition can occur in the setting of an underlying infection that may lead to shock, other signs and symptoms of the infection itself typically manifest before the development of the aneurysm and subsequent hemorrhage.
