Tobacco smoke has numerous adverse effects on both human and animal health, including impaired reproductive function. Recent research has explored environmental exposure in dogs, investigating various biological matrices. However, no data are currently available on the presence of cotinine, a nicotine metabolite, in the canine ejaculate.

Background: Signet-ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) originates from undifferentiated stem cells in the neck of glands within the lamina propria of the mucosa. Primarily affecting the stomach, SRCC can also involve the breast, pancreas, gallbladder, colon, and bladder, although these cases are rare. SRCC of the prostate is extremely rare, and diagnosing it pelvic puncture is particularly challenging.

The role of nurse practitioners (NPs) has become integral to healthcare systems worldwide. Originating in the United States over 50 years ago, it has since been adopted by countries such as Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia. To honor the research and contributions that have shaped the NP discipline, it is valuable to review and recognize key literature that has significantly impacted its development.

The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between the insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) receptor (RXFP2) expression levels on spermatozoa and INSL3 concentrations in the seminal plasma of fresh semen from beef bulls with different levels of sperm morphological normality. Ejaculates (n = 44) were collected from 21 yearling Japanese Black beef bulls and categorized into three groups based on the levels of sperm morphological normality: High (normal morphology ≥ 80%; n = 23), Mid (< 80% & ≥ 65%; n = 10) and Low (< 65%; n = 11). Immunofluorescence was used to determine the localization and expression levels of RXFP2 in spermatozoa.

Purpose: Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is known to provide predictors for malignancy and treatment outcome. The inclusion of these datasets in workflows for online adaptive planning remains under investigation. We demonstrate the feasibility of longitudinal relaxometry in online MR-guided adaptive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) to the prostate and dominant intra-prostatic lesion (DIL).
