Veterinarians face ethical challenges during their careers, but despite evidence of work-related stress and burnout in veterinarians, moral distress has been poorly investigated. Using an online survey, professional experience, moral distress, and burnout were investigated in 704 Italian veterinarians caring for companion animals, farm animals, or both. The reliability of the moral distress questionnaire was optimal, and Factor analysis identified four factors for moral distress: I.

Italy currently lacks a comprehensive and valuable assessment methodology for evaluating the welfare of captive animals. To address this gap, the present study aimed to identify the most important criteria that should be considered in the welfare management and assessment of animals housed in Italian zoos and aquaria.

- The text discusses the importance of healthy eating habits for children's growth, emphasizing the need for educational interventions at schools and involvement from families to improve complementary feeding practices.
- The objective of the review is to evaluate how effective early childhood education interventions are in enhancing complementary feeding practices for children aged 4 to 36 months.
- The review will include various types of studies (like randomized trials and observational studies) and will follow a systematic methodology for collecting and evaluating data from multiple databases without limits on date or language.
Article Synopsis
- Genome Resources Banks (GRBs) are essential for collecting and managing genetic material to protect biodiversity for research and conservation purposes.
- They help in species preservation and genetic management, particularly for endangered animals, by storing genetic information securely to counteract population risks.
- The article discusses the ethical concerns around wildlife biobanking practices and suggests using a tool called ETHAS to ensure these procedures maintain high ethical standards throughout their development and operation.
The larvae of Contarinia nasturtii (Kieffer) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), the swede midge, targets the meristem of brassica crops where they induce the formation of galls and disrupt seed and vegetable production. Previously, we examined the salivary gland transcriptome of newly-hatched first instar larvae as they penetrated the host and initiated gall formation. Here we examine the salivary gland and midgut transcriptome of third instar larvae and provide evidence for cooperative nutrient acquisition beginning with secretion of enzymes and feeding facilitators followed by gastrointestinal digestion.
