Published: January 2014

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.

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.
