Objective: The aim of this study was to provide insights into the addiction therapy concepts applied at the clinics of Hugo von Keyserlingk in Schwerin and Hubertus Windischmann in Brandenburg and to enable an understanding of the specific problems in this subsector of psychiatric care in the GDR.

Methods: Works published primarily in the GDR were identified, analyzed and contextualized, with expert interviews with von Keyserlingk and Windischmann complementing the findings.

Results: Initially limited approaches to alcoholism treatment after the Second World War gradually developed into more complex and diverse structures. Thus, from the 1960s on, von Keyserlingk established an addiction clinic, while Windischmann established an addiction treatment center in Brandenburg with various therapeutic options.

Conclusions: Von Keyserlingk's and Windischmann's contributions play a significant role in the development of therapeutic concepts. The study shows that they played a pioneering role in alcohol patient care in the GDR.

Early life killing of male and female dairy calves not needed as replacements for the lactating herd poses a threat to the social sustainability of the dairy industry. However, implementing sustainable alternatives to this common practice is a complex challenge exhibiting many characteristics of a 'wicked problem'. Addressing these problems requires understanding the needs of a wide range of actors including farmers, their advisors, beef and dairy value chain stakeholders, the public, and the animals.

Dairy cattle experience a variety of stressors associated with routine farm practices, including injections, pen movements, regrouping, and artificial insemination. The primary objective of this study was to assess ear position (categorized according to 5 positions) and body movement responses of heifers during their first experience of artificial insemination, in comparison with responses during baseline observations before and after this procedure. A secondary objective was to test whether heifers exposed to positive reinforcement training (PRT) responded differently to this procedure.

In humans, early painful experiences can increase pain sensitivity later in life, but little is known regarding this phenomenon in cattle. This study assessed if a painful event early in life affects later pain sensitivity in 40-d-old calves. Holstein calves (n = 26) were randomly assigned to control or treatment conditions, blocked within sex and birth weight.
