Aquatic training has been integrated into equine rehabilitation and training programs for several decades. While the cardiovascular effects of this training have been explored in previous studies, limited research exists on the locomotor patterns exhibited during the swimming cycle. This study aimed to analyze three distinct swimming strategies, identified by veterinarians, based on the propulsion phases of each limb: (S1) two-beat cycle with lateral overlap, (S2) two-beat cycle with diagonal overlap, and (S3) four-beat cycle.

Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) stimulation is a non-invasive therapy that may enhance fusion success in at-risk patients.
Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of post-operative adjunctive PEMF therapy following cervical spinal surgery in subjects at risk for pseudarthrosis.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with marked heterogeneity in executive function (EF) abilities. EF components including inhibition and shifting are related to ASD core symptoms such as perspective taking, social communication, and repetitive behavior. Recent research suggests that multilingualism may have a beneficial impact on EF abilities, especially in children with ASD.

- In low- and middle-income countries, neonatal bacterial infections are primarily due to Enterobacterales and Staphylococcus aureus, which contribute significantly to mortality from antibiotic resistance.
- The study aims to gather existing data on the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria like 3GCRE, CRE, and MRSA in newborns, focusing on factors that influence colonization during the first three months of life.
- After reviewing over 3,000 articles, the research analyzed 67 studies, finding a pooled prevalence of 30.2% for 3GCRE colonization among neonates, highlighting a significant public health concern in these regions.
