Nurse practitioner and physician assistant transition to practice: A scoping review of fellowships and onboarding programs.

Background: Newly graduated nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician assistants (PAs) benefit from transition-to-practice (TTP) support to move successfully into practice. Transition-to-practice programs (i.e.

NP and PA transition to practice: A scoping review of fellowships and onboarding programs.

Objectives: Newly graduated NPs and physician associates/assistants (PAs) benefit from transition to practice (TTP) support to move successfully into practice. TTP programs (such as onboarding programs, fellowships, and residencies) hold promise for improving workforce outcomes. The purpose of this scoping review was to describe the literature regarding NP/PA TTP programs.

Estradiol administration in Holstein heifer calves differentially affects the fatty acid composition of subcutaneous adipose and the mammary fat pad tissues.

This research communication reports the relative abundance of fatty acids in mammary fat pad (MFP) and subcutaneous adipose (SCA) tissues for Holstein heifer calves receiving 0, 3, or 12 daily injections of estradiol immediately prior to tissue collection. The objective of this study was to determine if the MFP and SCA fatty acid profiles were affected by estradiol administration and if such a response differs between adipose tissue depots. Twelve Holstein heifer calves were reared on a common diet and administered 12 daily injections prior to euthanasia.

Feeding a diet with corn distillers grain with solubles to dairy cows alters manure characteristics and ammonia and hydrogen sulfide emissions from manure.

The objective of the experiment was to examine effects of a diet containing a high concentration (28.8% dry matter basis) of corn distillers grain with solubles on manure characteristics and NH and HS emissions from dairy cow manure. Eighteen cows were blocked by parity and days in milk, and cows in each block were assigned to the following treatments: the control diet (CON) or CON with distillers grains with solubles at 28.
