Background: Calves rely on the passive transfer with immunoglobulins derived from colostrum. Currently, there is a lack of knowledge on colostrum management practices and colostrum quality on small scale family-owned dairy farms in Austria. The objectives of this study were to describe factors that are associated with immunoglobulin, protein, fat and lactose concentrations in dairy cow colostrum from the federal state of Salzburg.

- - Multi-tissue foot injuries are common in kids, and microsurgery plays a crucial role in their treatment, illustrated by a case of a 4-year-old boy who suffered severe injuries from a lawnmower accident, including the loss of his big toe.
- - The surgical team performed a unique combined free flap repair using muscle-sparing latissimus dorsi and serratus anterior, aiming to restore both function and appearance.
- - Follow-up evaluations at 3 months and 1 year showed excellent recovery, with good scores in aesthetic and functional assessments, indicating that this surgical approach is effective for treating complex foot injuries in children.
Background: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is often unsuspected by treating clinicians. Since the adoption of clinical prediction scores for PE and the widespread availability of computed tomography (CT)-pulmonary angiogram, there are few reports of clinical presentations of hospitalized patients who died of PE.
Objectives: To compare the clinical signs, symptoms, and comorbidities of hospitalized patients who died of PE for whom PE was suspected versus not suspected antemortem.
Background: Airway-related complications are rare after cervical spine surgery but can be devastating and compromise a successful outcome. The objective of this systematic review is to provide an overview of the management of airway complications after anterior cervical spine surgery (ACSS) and propose a treatment algorithm for approaching the patient with a compromised airway.
Methods: A literature search was conducted in PubMed and adapted for use in other databases, including the Cochrane Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Library Health Technology Assessment Database, Embase, and the National Health Service (NHS) Economic Evaluation Database.
