    Abstract Energy intake and partitioning are determined by many interacting factors and their prediction is the Achilles' heel of ration formulation. Inadequate energy intake can limit milk yield and reproductive performance, whereas excessive energy intake will increase body condition, increasing the risk of health and reproductive issues in the subsequent lactation. Ration composition interacts with the physiological state of cows, making it difficult to predict DMI and the partitioning of energy accurately. However, understanding the factors controlling these allows us to devise grouping strategies and manipulate rations to optimize energy intake through lactation. Eating is controlled by the integration of signals in brain feeding centers. Ration composition affects DMI of cows via signals from ruminal distention and the hepatic oxidation of fuels. Dairy cow rations must contain a minimal concentration of relatively low-energy roughages for proper rumen function, but signals from ruminal distension can limit DMI when the drive to eat is high. Signals from the hepatic oxidation of fuels likely dominate the control of DMI in the peripartum period when cows are in a lipolytic state and later in lactation when signals from distension diminish. Therefore, the effects of the ration on DMI vary with the physiological state of the animal. Furthermore, they interact with environmental stressors such as social (e.g., overcrowding) and thermal stress. The objective of this article is to discuss the effects of ration composition on energy intake and partitioning in lactating cows and how they can be manipulated to optimize productive performance.

    Abstract Pes anserinus bursitis is a differential diagnosis for knee pain, that may be misdiagnosed. Without proper physical examination and thorough history taking, the diagnosis of pes anserinus may be delayed. We present a case report of this condition, involving both primary care and the emergency department. This case illustrates one possible presentation of this condition, and also demonstrates the risks of overreliance on imaging modalities in primary care, without also performing a proper physical examination of musculoskeletal presentations. The teamwork between physiotherapists and clinicians, in this case, highlights the value of a multidisciplinary team in sports medicine. This case report lends evidence that pes anserinus bursitis should be considered as a possible diagnosis for knee pain and emphasises the importance of physical examination.

    Abstract This case report and literature review aim to explore the range of injuries sustained in the sport of freediving. The case report involves a 37-year-old patient who sustained a pneumothorax secondary to freediving. We conducted the literature review to analyse the injuries associated with freediving. We used the combination of search terms 'freediving", "injuries", and "breath-hold diving" on the database PubMed®. A total of 40 studies were eligible for inclusion in this review. The search revealed a wide range of ophthalmological, pulmonary, neurological, ear, nose, and throat injuries, along with several fatalities. Freediving is a sport performed in extreme environments and, if undertaken by inexperienced, untrained, or competition divers, can lead to severe injury or even death. However, the risk of damage can be reduced by performing it responsibly with the appropriate training and by using proper safety measures. Future research is warranted into the psychological, physiological, and economic benefits of freediving at both individual and community levels.

    Abstract Reversible phosphorylation is a fundamental mechanism for controlling protein function. Despite the critical roles phosphorylated proteins play in physiology and disease, our ability to study individual phospho-proteoforms has been hindered by a lack of versatile methods to efficiently generate homogeneous proteins with site-specific phosphoamino acids or with functional mimics that are resistant to phosphatases. Genetic code expansion (GCE) is emerging as a transformative approach to tackle this challenge, allowing direct incorporation of phosphoamino acids into proteins during translation in response to amber stop codons. This genetic programming of phospho-protein synthesis eliminates the reliance on kinase-based or chemical semisynthesis approaches, making it broadly applicable to diverse phospho-proteoforms. In this comprehensive review, we provide a brief introduction to GCE and trace the development of existing GCE technologies for installing phosphoserine, phosphothreonine, phosphotyrosine, and their mimics, discussing both their advantages as well as their limitations. While some of the technologies are still early in their development, others are already robust enough to greatly expand the range of biologically relevant questions that can be addressed. We highlight new discoveries enabled by these GCE approaches, provide practical considerations for the application of technologies by non-GCE experts, and also identify avenues ripe for further development.

    Abstract Background: Hand infections are heterogeneous, and some may undergo successful outpatient management. There are no strict guidelines for determining which patients will likely require inpatient admission for successful treatment, and many patients succeed with outpatient therapy. We sought to determine risk factors for failed outpatient management of cellulitic hand infections.
    Methods: We performed a retrospective review of patients who presented to the Emergency Department (ED) for hand cellulitic infections over five years, from 2014 to 2019. Vital signs, lab markers, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), Elixhauser Comorbidity Measure (ECM), and antibiotic use were investigated. Discharge from the ED without subsequent admission was considered an outpatient success, while admission within 30 days of the prior visit was considered a failure. Continuous variables were compared with Welch's t test, and categorical data with Fisher's exact tests. Multivariable logistic regression was performed on comorbidities. Multiple testing adjustment was performed on p-values to generate q-values.
    Results: Outpatient management was attempted for 1,193 patients. 31 (2.6%) infections failed treatment, and 1,162 (97.4%) infections succeeded. Attempted outpatient treatment was 97.4% successful. Multivariable analysis demonstrated higher odds of failure with renal failure according to both CCI (OR 10.2, p < 0.001, q = 0.002) and ECM (OR 12.63, p = 0.003, q = 0.01) and with diabetes with complications according to the CCI (OR 18.29, p = 0.021, q = 0.032).
    Conclusions: Outpatient treatment failure was higher in patients with renal failure and complicated diabetes. These patients require a high index of suspicion for outpatient failure. These comorbidities should influence consideration for inpatient therapy though most patients can undergo successful treatment as outpatients.
    Level of evidence: Level III.
