However, it is unclear whether preventive use early in life can affect health outcomes for puppies.Methods: A triple-blind randomised controlled trial was conducted to assess the effectiveness of a synbiotic in reducing the occurrence and severity of diarrhoea, gastrointestinal disease and atopy. The synbiotic contained Enterococcus faecium, fructo-oligosaccharides and gum arabic. Puppies were randomly allocated to one of two groups, one receiving the synbiotic and the other receiving a placebo from five to approximately 10 weeks of age. A further 116 puppies from 15 litters served as a non-operative control group. Faecal scores were recorded during supplementation, and the incidence of gastrointestinal disease and atopy later in life was assessed.Results: Fifty-seven litters (419 puppies) were given the synbiotic and 57 litters (412 puppies) were given a placebo. Attrition was minimal. The diarrhoea status did not differ significantly among the groups, nor did groups differ in incidence of gastrointestinal disease or atopy.Limitations: The non-operative control group was not randomly allocated. The effectiveness of only one type of synbiotic was investigated, and the effects were predominantly assessed for a relatively short period early in life.Conclusion: No benefits of administering this synbiotic early in life were observed.","PeriodicalId":23560,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Record","volume":" ","pages":"e155-e167"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2026-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13474455/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146094384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Workplace interventions to reduce suicide deaths among veterinary professionals require understanding of how restriction of access is experienced.Methods: Qualitative, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 37 participants, eliciting narratives about experiences of restriction.Results: Analysing data from 22 veterinary professionals with personal experience of suicidality and 21 adults bereaved by the suicide of a veterinary professional, we identified three approaches to restriction: collaborative, differential and universal. We identified two main themes: restriction as protective (emphasising the value of restriction in reducing or preventing veterinary suicides) and unintended consequences of restriction (highlighting negative effects of particular approaches to restriction). We also identified an overarching theme of complexity: accounts underlining the contested nature of restriction of access to means in veterinary practice.Limitations: Method substitution was not present in this study but warrants further investigation.Conclusion: Although complex, restriction of access to means of suicide can be considered in veterinary spaces. Restriction must carefully avoid adverse consequences, including humiliation, shaming and punitive approaches, which potentially increase risk. Any proposed changes must address concerns regarding animal welfare and factors such as increased burden of work.","PeriodicalId":23560,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Record","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2026-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148765329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two hundred and sixteen dogs were enrolled. Pain was assessed using the short form of the Glasgow composite pain scale (SF-GCPS) at predefined timepoints from 2 hours to 7 days after surgery. Inflammation was scored using a visual analogue scale, and owners evaluated demeanour, mobility and perceived analgesic quality. The primary efficacy endpoint was the area under the curve of the SF-GCPS scores during the first 48 hours after surgery (SF-GCPS AUC2-48 h). Treatment success was also calculated.Results: Enflicoxib was non-inferior to firocoxib for SF-GCPS AUC2-48 h. Early postoperative inflammation (2-8 hours) was significantly lower with enflicoxib. Pain scores at individual timepoints, treatment success and owner assessments were similar between groups.Limitations: The non-inferiority margin was not formally validated.Conclusions: A single preoperative dose of enflicoxib provided safe, effective control of postoperative pain and inflammation associated with orthopaedic surgery in dogs and represents a practical perioperative non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug option.","PeriodicalId":23560,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Record","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2026-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148702263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper reviews the identity processes associated with feared identities.Methods: This qualitative study was conducted within a UK-based, multisite small animal veterinary organisation. Data were collected via 51 semi-structured interviews with 39 participants. Vets were asked to talk about difficult cases and perceived mistakes. Data were interpreted using a thematic discursive analysis.Results: Vets drew on social discourses to construct feared identities and engage in negative self-assessment. Most vets spoke of externalising culpability for apparent misdeeds, but some described unrelenting self-blame.Limitations: The results were context-specific and collected within one case study organisation. Further work is required to investigate feared identities in other veterinary organisations and professions.Conclusion: This research demonstrates how vets form feared identities and engage in self-denigration. It shows how some vets use defensive identity work strategies to restore desired identities while others maintain feared identities. These findings suggest that critically reviewing inherent professional and organisational norms may help create work environments within which vets can better learn and recover from difficult experiences.","PeriodicalId":23560,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Record","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2026-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148664516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
