Comparative Efficacy and Safety of Endovascular vs. Surgical Treatment in Spinal Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Study Design: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Objective: This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of surgical and endovascular treatments for SDAVFs.

Summary Of Background Data: Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (SDAVFs) result from an abnormal connection between the radiculomeningeal artery and the radicular vein, leading to venous hypertension and potential neurological damage.

Incomplete reporting of adverse events in duloxetine trials: a meta-research survey of randomized controlled trials versus placebo.

Objective: Relying on published data alone might be insufficient for meta-analyses to be reliable and trustworthy since selective outcome reporting is common, especially for adverse events. We investigated the existence of selective reporting and its potential for bias in a case study exploring adverse events of duloxetine in adults.

Study Design And Setting: We systematically searched all previous meta-analyses/pooled analyses on duloxetine published on PubMed for 7 indications approved by the American and European health authorities.

Graduate student literature review: Integrating concepts of animal welfare and health-related quality of life for pre-weaned dairy calves.

Dairy calf welfare assessment tools focusing on the pre-weaning period have been proposed in recent research. Despite the existence of these tools, assessing the welfare and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of dairy calves remains challenging. These difficulties may stem from the complexity of assessing all dimensions of calf welfare and the validity, reliability, and feasibility of the indicators used in assessment tools.

Usefulness of differential somatic cell count for udder health monitoring: association of differential somatic cell count and somatic cell score with quarter-level milk yield and milk components.

Mastitis is the most common disease affecting dairy cattle and is associated with substantial milk loss. Somatic cell count (SCC) has been widely used as an indicator of udder inflammation (e.g.
