Artificial insemination of bottlenose dolphins (): a trial with simple instruments based on criteria for estrous behaviors linked to changes in estradiol levels and follicle development.

Herein, we report a case of pregnancy of a female bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) that was subjected to artificial insemination (AI) in water based on its estrous behavior using simple instruments. AI was performed on this female dolphin once or twice daily for 4 days at the detection of estrous behavior, such as floating horizontally and showing reduced responsiveness, likely indicating the appropriate timing for AI. The female was placed in supine a position in the water to position the genital slit above the water surface.

Article Synopsis
- Subdural hematoma is a common surgical issue in neurosurgery, but prefabricated drains are often inconsistently available due to various factors.
- A research study analyzed the costs of different subdural drain options, revealing that available prefabricated drains can be quite expensive ($25 to $150), prompting the need for a low-cost alternative.
- A guide for creating handmade subdural drains was developed, which emphasizes affordability and accessibility, especially for surgeons in developing countries, as these alternatives can be made for around $5.
Virtual Reality Simulation-Based Clinical Procedure Skills Training for Nursing College Students: A Quasi-Experimental Study.
Healthcare (Basel)
May 2024
Ewha Medical Academy, Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital, Seoul 07985, Republic of Korea.
Core nursing skills are emphasized in nursing education, given their vital role in nurses' competence; however, invasive nursing procedures like catheterization and enemas are infrequently performed in actual clinical practice, primarily being observed rather than executed. Virtual reality simulation training involves performing core nursing skills on virtual patients in a three-dimensional virtual reality environment, following the correct procedures. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of VR simulation on nursing students' confidence, proficiency, task engagement, and satisfaction.

Article Synopsis
- The study compares two nonsurgical treatments for urethral stricture: clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) and hydraulic urethral dilatation (HUD) among 48 patients over 12 months.* -
- Results show that patients undergoing HUD had a significantly lower need for surgical interventions and urinary tract infections compared to those treated with CIC.* -
- Patient-reported outcomes from the HUD group indicated a better quality of life and effectiveness, highlighting HUD as a safe and convenient home-based treatment option.*
