Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the risk factors, specifically age and breed, related to infections in dogs caused by Angiostrongylus vasorum and Crenosoma vulpis over five years at two veterinary clinics in Denmark.
- A total of 2,013 faecal samples were analyzed, revealing that older dogs have a reduced risk for these infections, with specific breeds showing varying susceptibility—dachshunds had a higher risk of A. vasorum, while sheep and cattle dogs had a lower risk of C. vulpis.
- The prevalence rates found were 14.50% for C. vulpis and 3.40% for A. vasorum, indicating a significant presence of these nematode infections in
Study Question: Can a reconstructed ovary using decellularized human ovarian tissue (DCT) support survival of pre-antral stage follicles?
Summary Answer: We have demonstrated an effective protocol for decellularization of human ovarian tissues and successful recellularization with isolated human ovarian cells and pre-antral follicles.
What Is Known Already: Survivors of leukemia or ovarian cancer run a risk of reintroducing malignancy when cryopreserved ovarian tissue is transplanted to restore fertility. A reconstructed ovary free of malignant cells could provide a safe alternative.
A shortcut review was carried out to establish whether pin management or sedation is indicated to improve outcome in patients who show signs of awareness during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Seven papers presented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The author, date and country of publication, patient group studied, study type, relevant outcomes, results and study weaknesses of these papers are tabulated.

Method: The authors conducted a constructivist qualitative study in 2015 using focus group discussions to explore the perceptions of different stakeholder groups (patients, nurses/nurse practitioners, supervisors/senior physicians, leaders/administrators, trainees) regarding trainee competence in the emergency department. The authors used a conventional content analysis, a comparative analysis of supervisors'/senior physicians' versus other stakeholders' perspectives, and a directed analysis informed by stakeholder theory to analyze the focus group transcripts.
Cardiac arrest teams perspectives on communication and ethical conflicts related to awareness during CPR, a focus group study protocol.

Background: Awareness during Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) also called CPR induced consciousness (CPRIC) is a rare, but increasingly reported condition with significant clinical implications. Health professionals lack guidelines about patients with CPRIC, and to this date, no studies have addressed the complexity of communication and ethical aspects when continuing CPR while the patient is conscious.
Methods: We aim to explore Cardiac arrest team members perspectives regarding communication and ethical conflicts related to awareness during CPR.
