Objective: To describe indications for and demonstrate the technique to perform a transtracheal aspirate in horses. Transtracheal aspirate is indicated to collect samples for cytology and bacteriologic culture in cases of suspected pneumonia or other lower respiratory tract disease.
Animals: 1 healthy university-owned horse was used for demonstration purposes.

Limitations of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) are responsible for the low efficacy and high toxicity of many antidepressants. However, strategies to enhance BBB targeting to improve the efficacy and safety of antidepressants remain challenging. In this study, we prepared transferrin (Tf)-functionalized chitosan (CS)-N,O-carboxymethy chitosan (NOCMS) nanosystems (NPs) (NOCMS-CS-Tf NPs), which can enhance BBB targeting in the depressive environment and allow more NPs to enter the brain.

Magnetic compression anastomosis (MCA) for esophageal stenosis requires the insertion of magnets through two channels, transoral and transgastrostomy. Herein, we designed a Y-Z deformable self-assembled magnetic anastomosis ring (Y-Z DSAMAR) for esophageal stricture anastomosis through the transoral passage only. We introduce a Y-Z DSAMAR and verify its feasibility for single-access esophageal stenosis anastomosis in isolated organs.

Background/objectives: The study objective was to determine the physicochemical stability of nab-paclitaxel (Pazenir) ready-to-use (RTU) dispersion for infusion in original glass vials and ready-to-administer (RTA) infusion dispersion in EVA infusion bags.
Methods: Triplicate test dispersions were prepared and stored light protected for a maximum of 28 days either in the original glass vials (RTU) at 2-8 °C or in EVA infusion bags (RTA) at 2-8 °C and at 25 °C. Directly after reconstitution and on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 21, and 28 samples were withdrawn and paclitaxel concentrations assayed by a stability-indicating HPLC method.
