Two hundred and thirty-nine beef calves were used to determine the occurrence of injection site lesions at slaughter (16 to 17 mo of age) following the use of 3 different 8-way clostridial bacterins, a 4-way viral respiratory vaccine, various long-acting oxytetracycline preparations, florfenicol, ceftiofur, and trimethoprim-sulfa when injected in the top hip (top butt), thigh (round), or neck (blade) of calves at 2 to 3 or 5 to 7 mo of age. The occurrence of lesions varied by product, route of administration, and location of injection. The number of steaks affected with lesions, the trim weight of lesions, the histological class of lesions, and the economic losses from trim are described.

Retinoid-impregnated nanoparticles enable control of bone growth by site-specific modulation of endochondral ossification in mice.

Growth-plate (GP) injures in limbs and other sites can impair GP function and cause deceleration of bone growth, leading to progressive bone lengthening imbalance, deformities and/or physical discomfort, decreased motion and pain. At present, surgical interventions are the only means available to correct these conditions by suppressing the GP activity in the unaffected limb and/or other bones in the ipsilateral region. Here, we aimed to develop a pharmacologic treatment of GP growth imbalance that involves local application of nanoparticles-based controlled release of a selective retinoic acid nuclear receptor gamma (RARγ) agonist drug.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the Lean Six Sigma management approach on the standardization of nurses' prefilled anticoagulant subcutaneous injection practices, with a focus on improving anticoagulation outcomes, reducing patient complications, and enhancing overall patient satisfaction.
Background: The lack of standards for prefilled anticoagulant injection has resulted in a high complication rate, decreased patient satisfaction, and diminished service quality. This study investigated the impact of the Lean Six Sigma management approach on the standardization of nurses' prefilled anticoagulant subcutaneous injection practices.
Characterizing Antisense Oligonucleotide-Induced Histopathology Findings in Spinal Cord of Mauritius Cynomolgus Monkeys by Molecular Localization Investigation.

The safety of a 2'--methoxyethyl antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) was investigated in Mauritius cynomolgus monkeys in a 41-week Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) toxicity study after multiple intrathecal (IT) administrations. Histopathological examination revealed ectopic formation of lymphoid follicles in the spinal cord (SC) at the injection site at all doses and the presence of granular material in neurons of the SC in high-dose animals. The granular material was seen in all the segments of the SC, but mainly in the lumbar segment and persisted at the end of the 26-week recovery period, while the lymphoid follicles showed a reversibility trend.

Objectives: Mesothelin (MSLN) is an antigen that is overexpressed in various cancers, and its interaction with tumor-associated cancer antigen 125 plays a multifaceted role in tumor metastasis. The serum MSLN expression level can be detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; however, non-invasive visualization of its expression at the tumor site is currently lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a molecular probe for imaging MSLN expression through positron emission tomography (PET).
