Dhand, Karsten Donat, Susanne Eisenberg, Miguel A. Salgado, John P. Kastelic, Jeroen De Buck, Herman W. Barkema

“…ABSTRACT: Johne's disease (JD; paratuberculosis) control programs have been regionally implemented across the globe, but few have successfully eradicated the pathogen (Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis; MAP) causing this disease. The limited success may partly be attributed to excluding young stock (calves and replacement heifers or bulls) from testing strategies aimed at identifying MAP-infected cattle. …”

Prospective Single-Arm Study of Remifentanil-Propofol Anesthesia with Manual Right Hypochondrial Compression for Painless Gastroscopy in Obese Patients by Wang M, Tang J, Pan Z, Jiang H, Hu D, Zhu B, Liang Z, Zhao X, Li Y

“…However, for obesity, there are changes in airway anatomy structure such as short neck, round chin, and large tongue, which makes them prone to airway obstruction after sleep or anesthesia, blocking the passage of oxygen in and out, which will cause hypoxemia over time and further cause damage to the body. Therefore, it is necessary to explore a safe and effective anesthesia management for painless gastroscopy in obesity. …”
