4 HU [range, 84.5-142.0 HU]), with a lower postcontrast mean torsednormal HU ratio of 0.35 (range, 0.14-0.48) compared to precontrast. Mean HU of torsed liver lobes had little difference pre- and postcontrast (postcontrast HU 1.0 times the average precontrast HU [range, 0.81-1.1]), and contrast enhancement of the torsed liver lobes was on average 50% lower than in normal liver. Liver lobe torsion should be considered in rabbits with an enlarged, hypoattenuating, heterogeneous, minimally to noncontrast enhancing liver lobe, particularly the caudate lobe, and scant regional peritoneal effusion.

Effective nonsurgical treatments for the aging face are widely accepted and utilized. Although changes in the aging neck, often patients to seek esthetic rejuvenation protocols are neither well defined nor well designed. Increasingly, patients desire less invasive cosmetic treatments with less morbidity and downtime. A significant challenge exists in managing expectations and educating patients about the pros and cons of a surgical approach compared to the plethora of nonsurgical options. When equipped with state of the art information and technique, using a multi-modality nonsurgical approach, surprisingly outstanding results may be obtained.

In this paper, we aim to revisit the neck's anatomy and then demonstrate current nonsurgical techniques in managing actual cases.

To achieve that, we have utilized an intuitive four-point grading scale to guide both physician and patient regarding appropriate treatment combinations.

The proposed four-point scale was applied to six patients and their treatment plan was described in detail.

Questionnaires used to assess women's beliefs as a predictor of breastfeeding behaviour are not theoretically informed or tested for psychometric validity and reliability. This study conducted a psychometric evaluation of the Beliefs About Breastfeeding Questionnaire (BAB-Q).

A two-phase evaluation in an online cross-sectional questionnaire study (N=278) and cohort study sample (N=264). A ten-item questionnaire was proposed to assess women's beliefs about the benefits and efforts of breastfeeding.

Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) assessed construct validity and reliability. Multivariate regression analyses assessed validity in predicting breastfeeding behaviour and experiences.

EFA found a shortened 8-item, 2-factor model had good fit (χ

=23.3, df=13, p<.040; CFI=.99, TLI=.99, RMSEA=.05), with significant factor loadings. Factor 1 (benefit beliefs) and factor 2 (effort beliefs) accounted for 47 and 19.4% of the explained variance and correlated moderately (ctive validity of the questionnaire in longitudinal studies with diverse beliefs and infant feeding practices are required.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease is a chronic, slowly progressing disorder. The lack of specific disease progression biomarkers limits the execution of clinical trials. However, neurofilament light chain (NfL) has been suggested as a potential biomarker for peripheral nervous system disorders.

Ninety-six CMT disease patients and 60 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. Disease severity assessment included clinical evaluation with CMT Neuropathy Score version 2 (CMTNSv2). Blood plasma NfL concentrations were measured using the single-molecule array NfL assay.

The NfL concentration was significantly higher in the CMT disease patient group than in the controls (p<0.001). Of the CMT disease patients, those with type CMTX1 had a higher NfL level than those in the two other analysed subgroups (CMT1A and other CMT disease types) (p=0.0498). The NfL concentration had a significant but weak correlation with the CMTNSv2 (r

=0.25, p=0.012). In one CMT disease patient with an extremely elevated NfL levthe clinical context of suspected CMT disease; however, several issues need to be addressed first.

The posterior insula (PI) has been proposed as a potential neurostimulation target for neuropathic pain relief as it represents a key-structure in pain processing. However, currently available data remain inconclusive as to efficient stimulation parameters.

As frequency was shown to be the most correlated parameter to pain relief, this study aims to evaluate the potential modulatory effects of low frequency (LF-IS, 50 Hz) and high-frequency (HF-IS, 150 Hz) posterior insular stimulation on the activity of somatosensory thalamic nuclei.

Epidural bipolar electrodes were placed over the PI of healthy adult cats, and extracellular single-unit activities of nociceptive (NS), nonnociceptive (NN), and wide dynamic range (WDR) thalamic cells were recorded within the ventral posterolateral nucleus and the medial division of the thalamic posterior complex. Mean discharge frequency and burst firing mode were analyzed before and after either LF-IS or HF-IS.

LF-IS showed a significant thalamic modulatory effects increasing the firing rate of NN cells (p ≤ 0.03) and decreasing the burst firing of NS cells (p ≤ 0.03), independently of the thalamic nucleus. Conversely, HF-IS did not induce any change in firing properties of the three recorded cell types.

These data indicate that 50 Hz IS could be a better candidate to control neuropathic pain.

This delay of suspicion and treatment can result in increased mortality rates. The objective of this retrospective, observational study was to describe ultrasound and serum bilirubin findings in a group of dogs with an ultrasonographic diagnosis of suspected biliary rupture. The records of a single institution were searched over the period of 2007-2019 for cases having ultrasound reports describing suspicion of biliary rupture. Clinical findings for each of the cases were recorded. A total of 35 dogs met inclusion criteria and, of these, 30 dogs had confirmed ruptured biliary tracts. It was found that 40% (12/30) of dogs with confirmed ruptured biliary tracts had a serum bilirubin values within the normal reference range. No statistical difference was found in serum bilirubin values between the ruptured and nonruptured biliary tracts. Leukocytosis and neutrophilia were found to be statistically significant between ruptured and nonruptured biliary tracts.
