After presenting pet demographics and discussing the present situation of vaccine use in France, the article focuses on the required changes to implement extended DOI vaccination protocols. Initiatives should address both the vets' and owners' attitudes and behaviour. However, many French vets are already implementing DOI protocols by vaccinating dogs every 2 years, so that the perceived risk of waning immunity is far from reality. Implementing an extended DOI schedule offers an opportunity to increase client attachment to the practice rather than perpetuate 'false loyalty' based on habit. Suggestions are made how vaccine companies may want to help French veterinarians switch from yearly booster vaccination to 3-year extended DOI protocols.

Effects of F1-F2 Frequency Spacing on Spectral Integration in Combined Electric and Acoustic Stimulation.
J Speech Lang Hear Res
January 2025
Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, Baylor University, Waco, TX.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to measure the effects of frequency spacing (i.e., F2 minus F1) on spectral integration for vowel perception in simulated bilateral electric-acoustic stimulation (BiEAS), electric-acoustic stimulation (EAS), and bimodal hearing.

J Neurosurg Case Lessons
January 2025
Division of Neurosurgery, Tohoku Medical and Pharmaceutical University, Sendai, Japan.
Background: The authors report the first case of thoracic interdural spinal cysts presenting as radiculopathy attributed to overdrainage-related cervical venous plexus enlargement. This case emphasizes the importance of considering interdural spinal cysts and cerebrospinal fluid overdrainage in the differential diagnosis of radiculopathy.
Observations: A 37-year-old male patient with a history of orthostatic headache presented with bilateral deltoid muscle atrophy consistent with C5 radiculopathy.
Primary intracranial extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma with intraspinal metastasis in children: illustrative case.
J Neurosurg Case Lessons
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China.
Background: The diagnosis of intracranial extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma (EES) poses challenges due to the absence of specific clinical and imaging features prior to surgery. It is crucial to differentiate the tumor from other small round cell malignancies postoperatively.
Observations: A 7-year-old patient was admitted to the authors' hospital due to the in situ recurrence of a posterior fossa tumor more than 1 month after the initial surgery for headache.
Surgical correction of a chin-on-abdomen deformity due to ankylosing spinal deformity and obesity: illustrative case.
J Neurosurg Case Lessons
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois.
Background: Kyphotic spinal deformity is a complication of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). In rare cases, particularly in obese patients, the deformity might extend to the cervicothoracic spine, resulting in a severe "chin-on-abdomen" deformity. This condition severely impairs quality of life by affecting gaze, swallowing, and causing chronic pain.

J Clin Med Res
December 2024
Department of Hemodialysis and Apheresis, The University of Tokyo Hospital, Tokyo, Japan.
Background: Granulocyte and monocyte adsorption apheresis (GMA) is a therapeutic option for remission induction in the active ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. Effects of high processed blood volume of GMA as remission induction therapy on the long-term prognosis of UC patients have remained unclear. For this study, we investigated the relation between re-exacerbation of UC and the processed blood volume of GMA performed as induction therapy.
