Barriers and drivers of farmers to provide outdoor access in pig farming systems: a qualitative study.

Part of the farmers have chosen to raise pigs with outdoor access. However, providing outdoor access to pigs is not a simple matter, and many farmers are hesitating or feel powerless to engage in this transition. A better understanding of their needs and challenges could facilitate the development of innovations that generate commitment.

Does Breast Surgery Type Alter Incidental Axillary Irradiation? A Dosimetric Analysis of the "Sentinel Envahi et Randomisation du Curage" SERC Trial.

Background: An incidental axillary dose of adjuvant radiotherapy using tangential beams is usually given after breast-conserving surgery for breast cancer. The goal of this sub-study was to evaluate this incidental dose in the setting of post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) according to two different radiotherapy techniques.

Methods: Patients participating in a randomized SERC trial who received PMRT in a single center were included.

Postoperative Outcomes of Pre-Pectoral Versus Sub-Pectoral Implant Immediate Breast Reconstruction.

Introduction: Immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) techniques are rapidly evolving. We compared the results from a single-center implant IBR cohort between subpectoral and prepectoral implants with and without a mesh.

Methods: We analyzed all complications and grade 2-3 complications, the implant loss rate, the surgery time, the length of stay (LOS), patient satisfaction, the interval time to adjuvant therapy and cost, with a comparison between subpectoral and prepectoral implant IBR.

Classification of pig calls produced from birth to slaughter according to their emotional valence and context of production.

Vocal expression of emotions has been observed across species and could provide a non-invasive and reliable means to assess animal emotions. We investigated if pig vocal indicators of emotions revealed in previous studies are valid across call types and contexts, and could potentially be used to develop an automated emotion monitoring tool. We performed an analysis of an extensive and unique dataset of low (LF) and high frequency (HF) calls emitted by pigs across numerous commercial contexts from birth to slaughter (7414 calls from 411 pigs).
