Examination of Salmonella Prevalence in Pigs Through Rye‐Based Feeding and Coarser Feed Structure Under Field Conditions by Jens Gerrit Lindhaus, Bernd Reckels, Bussarakam Chuppava, Richard Grone, Christian Visscher, Clara Berenike Hartung

“…Results Rye‐based diets had a significant (p < 0.05) impact on Salmonella antibody (percentage optical density [OD%]) detection. In this study, it became apparent that significantly fewer positive OD% values could be detected due to the increase in rye compared to farms that did not change the feed (Farm 6 P0: 35.45 ± 36.18; P1: 15.48 ± 16.98; P2: 9.36 ± 8.17). …”

Empire Seen from Within. Cinema Objects, Spaces and Edifices in the Limelight in Colonial India and Ceylon (1899-1950) by Vilasnee Tampoe-Hautin

“…And yet, nowhere is it more relevant to include conventional cinema hardware in scientific research given that in the first instance, cinema as an art, but also an industry with a massive following, came accompanied by a vast array of optical, audio and mechanical devices. Further, it was the Victorians and the Edwardians who bequeathed us the first objects, edifices and spaces of cinema, adding to the iconic and material wealth characteristic of the age. …”

Balloon dilation for the treatment of male urethral strictures: a systematic review and meta-analysis by Tianyu Cai, Xiaoyu Li, Jian Lin, Chunru Xu, Xing Ji, Zhenpeng Zhu, Zhenke Guo

“…There is insufficient evidence to suggest that balloon dilation is superior to optical internal urethrotomy or direct visual internal urethrotomy (DVIU) (RR= 1.4754, 95% CI: 0.7306 to 2.9793, p=0.278).Conclusion Balloon dilation may be an intermediate step before urethroplasty and is a promising alternative therapy to simple dilation and DVIU. …”
