Weaned pigs are highly susceptible to gut infections, underscoring the need to develop feeding strategies to manage gut health. A study was conducted to determine the effects of lipid-coated sodium butyrate (NaB) and enzymatically hydrolyzed yeast cell wall product (EYP) on growth performance and indicators of intestinal structure and function in nursery pigs. A total of 96 weaned pigs (initial BW = 6.

Objective: Availability of surgical equipment and access to essential clinical services remains an important barrier to surgical care delivery, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This study aims to characterize the relative availability of essential equipment for otolaryngology-head and neck surgery (OHNS) care across World Bank income groups.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey on otolaryngologists' perceptions on the availability of surgical equipment and ancillary services in their respective practice settings per a 5-point Likert scale ranging from never to always available.
