Long-Term Outcome and Complications after Transcondylar Screw Placement for Canine Humeral Intracondylar Fissure.

Objective:  The aim of this study was to report postoperative complications and long-term outcomes following transcondylar screw placement for humeral intracondylar fissure (HIF).

Study Design:  It was a retrospective single-centre case series. Medical records (2018-2022) were reviewed for dogs with HIF treated with transcondylar screw placement.

The experiences and needs of unpaid family caregivers for persons living with dementia in rural settings: A qualitative systematic review.

Purpose: Unpaid family caregivers provide extensive support for community-dwelling persons living with dementia, impacting family caregivers' health and wellbeing. Further, unpaid family caregiving in rural settings has additional challenges because of lower access to services. This systematic review examines qualitative evidence to summarize the experiences and needs of rural unpaid family caregivers of persons living with dementia.

Memory Deficits for Health Information Provided Through a Telehealth Video Conferencing System.

It is critical to remember details about meetings with healthcare providers. Forgetting could result in inadequate knowledge about ones' health, non-adherence with treatments, and poorer health outcomes. Hearing the health care provider plays a crucial role in consolidating information for recall.

Sucrose and proton cotransport in Ricinus cotyledons : II. H(+) efflux and associated K(+) uptake.

In Ricinus cotyledons, evidence for proton extrusion came from observation of direct acidification of the medium in the presence of potassium salts. Increasing K(+) influx with increasing pH suggested a link between K(+) influx and H(+) efflux by an H(+) pump. The kinetics of K(+) influx and H(+) efflux were consistent with a 1:1 stoichiometry K(+):H(+), which may indicate either electrical coupling or carrier mediated exchange.

Sucrose and proton cotransport in Ricinus cotyledons : I. H(+) influx associated with sucrose uptake.

Ricinus cotyledons were used to investigate whether sucrose uptake by the phloem could be due to H(+)-sucrose cotransport. The addition of sucrose to the medium bathing Ricinus cotyledons created a pH shift to more alkaline values. The effect was not observed on the addition of glucose or fructose.
