Post-weaning stress, together with , are two of the key factors in the occurrence of post-weaning diarrhea. There are different commercial vaccines that induce immunity at the local or systemic level, improving farm health and avoiding economic losses in the pork industry. That is why the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of an oral enterotoxigenic F4/F18 vaccine on immunity and intestinal integrity in the middle and long term after inoculation.

- A study monitored 63 patients' motor activity, distal temperature, and light exposure over a week using a wrist device to explore the connection between circadian rhythms and liver disease severity.
- Findings revealed that as liver disease worsens (as indicated by the Child-Pugh score), so do circadian parameters, suggesting that monitoring these rhythms could improve care strategies and overall quality of life for patients awaiting transplantation.
Background: Mammals are subject to circadian rhythms for the control of various physiological events. One of the parameters known to be subject to variations throughout the day is body temperature, which is also subject to influences such as environmental temperature. However, there are not many studies on these rhythms in breeding sows.

Objectives: (a) to analyze the attitudes of Veterinary Degree students in six Spanish Universities towards xenotransplantation; and (b) to determine the factors that affect its acceptance.
