Behavioral Signature of Equine Gastric Discomfort? Preliminary Retrospective Clinical Observations.

Gastric ulcer disease and other potentially painful gastric conditions are among the most common afflictions adversely affecting the welfare of domestic equids. A large percentage of affected animals may not display the classic signs of gastric disease, such as unexplained weight loss, poor hair coat, and inappetence until the disease becomes severe. As a clinical service within our equine referral hospital, we routinely evaluate 24-h video recorded samples of horses to assist clinicians in identifying subtle discomfort and potential sources or to scan for infrequent neurologic or cardiac-related behavioral events.

Outcomes of Knee Dislocations and Subluxations in Polytrauma Patients at a Major Trauma Center.

Background This is a retrospective service evaluation of outcomes of polytrauma patients sustaining knee dislocations and subluxations within a major trauma center (MTC). Polytrauma patients with knee dislocations are complex to manage and often sustain multiple life-threatening injuries. Although treatments have progressed, no consensus remains on management timing and strategy.

Injury prevention programmes (IPPs) for preventing anterior cruciate ligament injuries.

This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows: To determine the benefits and harms of injury prevention programmes on anterior cruciate ligament injuries.

Effect of fathers in Preemie Prep for Parents (P3) program on couple's preterm birth preparedness.

Objective: Evaluate the effect of fathers' participation in the Preemie Prep for Parents (P3) program on maternal learning and fathers' preterm birth knowledge.

Methods: Mothers with preterm birth predisposing medical condition(s) enrolled with or without the baby's father and were randomized to the P3 intervention (text-messages linking to animated videos) or control (patient education webpages). Parent Prematurity Knowledge Questionnaire assessed knowledge, including unmarried fathers' legal neonatal decision-making ability.

Polygenic scores and social determinants of health: Their correlations and potential biases.

The use of polygenic scores (PGS) for personalized medicine has gained momentum, along with caution to avoid accentuating health disparities. Greater ancestral diversity in genetic studies is needed, as well as close attention to the social determinants of health (SDoH).We measured the correlations between 3,030 PGS from the PGS Catalog and SDoH among participants in the Personalized Environment and Genes Study (PEGS).
