Background: One of the common complications in spinal surgery patients is deep surgical site infections (SSIs). Deep SSIs refer to infections that involve the deeper soft tissues of the incision, such as the fascia and muscle layers. This complication can lead to prolonged hospitalization, repeated surgeries, and even life-threatening conditions.

Backgrounds And Aim: To prospectively evaluate the associations between changes in (poly)phenol intake, body weight(BW), and physical activity(PA) with changes in an inflammatory score after 1-year.
Methods And Results: This is a prospective observational analysis involving 484 participants from the PREDIMED-Plus with available inflammatory measurements. (Poly)phenol intake was estimated using a validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire and the Phenol-Explorer database.

Objectives: The clinical efficacy of the use of probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics and postbiotics (biotics) in cats is unknown, despite their use in daily practice. The objectives of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of biotic supplementation in treating and preventing gastroenteropathies, and in reducing gastrointestinal signs associated with antibiotics in cats.
Materials And Methods: A systematic review was conducted by searching four databases for publications before August 2, 2024, following a pre-registered protocol.

Introduction: Meningiomas are the most common primary central nervous system tumors, often requiring surgical resection. Presurgical embolization (PSE) is used to reduce intraoperative bleeding, although its effectiveness varies. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of PSE using ethyl-vinyl alcohol (EVOH) in meningioma surgeries.

The aim of this field note is to report the presence of new mosquito species (Diptera: Culicidae) in the province of Segovia and discuss their potential role in pathogen transmission. In August 2024, two female mosquitoes were captured and identified as Aedes geniculatus (Olivier, 1791) and Anopheles petragnani (Del Vecchio, 1939) through a combination of traditional morphological identification and molecular analysis of their COI gene sequences. In urban environments, like the study area, these species seem to be attracted to humans.
