Introduction: The Satisfaction Survey for Inflatable Penile Implant (SSIPI) is useful tool to assess patient outcomes after inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) surgery. However, this survey is not validated in Spanish. This work aims to report the initial steps carried out for the linguistic validation of the SSIPI translation into Spanish.

Background: Cancer survivors are at increased risk for cardiometabolic comorbidities following cancer treatment, which may be further exacerbated by cannabis and alcohol use. We aimed to examine the direct relationships of cannabis, alcohol, and the co-use of both substances with cardiometabolic risk factors and to explore disparities by race/ethnicity and sex.
Methods: Cross-sectional data were extracted from adult cancer survivors in the "All of Us" from 2018 to 2022.
Background: Lawsonia intracellularis is the causative agent of Porcine Proliferative Enteropathy (PPE), one of the most prevalent pig enteric diseases worldwide, but with sparse information about early infections in suckling piglets in the epidemiology of PPE. With that aim, this study evaluates the prevalence of L. intracellularis in 3-week-old piglets by analysing ileal digesta content and mucosal scrapings from 383 pigs from 16 farms (aprox.

Monitoring their genetic diversity is essential to manage the negative impacts of inbreeding. Traditionally, inbreeding and inbreeding depression are assessed by pedigree-based coefficients (F), but recently, genetic markers have been preferred for their precision in capturing the inbreeding level and identifying animals at risk of reduced productive and reproductive performance.
