Enteric duplication cysts are rare congenital malformations of unknown aetiology. Because of improvements in prenatal ultrasound, more and more duplication cysts are found prenatally and treatment is started early. We describe a case of enteric duplication cyst diagnosed prenatally and resected soon after birth. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical treatment are the best way to prevent associated morbidity.

Enteric duplication cysts and reversed intestinal rotation (RIR) are rare congenital anomalies, with their coexistence being exceptionally uncommon. We report a 4-year-old girl who presented with chronic anemia and intermittent abdominal symptoms since infancy. Detailed workup for medical causes of anemia was inconclusive.

This study was performed to evaluate the effects of rye silage treated with sodium formate (Na-Fa) and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inoculants on the ruminal fermentation characteristics, methane yield and energy balance in Hanwoo steers. Forage rye was harvested in May 2019 and ensiled without additives (control) or with either a LAB inoculant or Na-Fa. The LAB () were inoculated at 1.

Background: Globally, gastroenteritis (GE) significantly impacts children's health and contributes to societal, economic, and health burdens. Previous studies reporting risk factors of GE in children in high-income settings mainly rely on outbreak investigations, which inherently capture only a fractional representation of the overall spectrum of GE occurrences. In addition, there is paucity of comprehensive information pertaining to modifiable risk factors of GE.

We report a case of a 26-year-old type 1 diabetic woman presenting with acute lower abdominal pain, bloating, and vomiting. Initial examination revealed right lower quadrant tenderness and a suprapubic mass. Computed tomography (CT) imaging identified a 12-cm cystic structure suggestive of a dilated bowel loop with an adjacent inflamed 7-cm small bowel segment.
