Article Abstract
Background: Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) are dissatisfied with their bowel care, but 71% have not changed their care for at least 5 years. Recently, individuals with SCI expressed a need for knowledge about bowel care options. Healthcare providers (HCP) play a crucial role in supporting bowel care changes.
Objective: We aimed to understand the barriers and facilitators HCP face when discussing changes in bowel care with individuals with SCI.
Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with HCP in partnership with Spinal Cord Injury British Columbia and key community stakeholders. Barriers and facilitators were extracted, deductively coded using the Theoretical Domains Framework, then inductively analysed for themes.
Results: Themes highlighted that effective bowel care requires diverse knowledge from a multidisciplinary team. Lack of time to prioritise bowel care and limited healthcare resources were barriers to improving care, which may be augmented through regular bowel care review of both medical and person-centered priorities. Facilitators were accessible and tailored knowledge sharing of care options, complemented by peer support.
Conclusion: This study highlights the need for targeted interventions that reduce barriers and enhance facilitators to changing care routines, supporting individuals with SCI to change bowel care when needed, and improving quality of life.

Background: Fish are the largest group of vertebrates. Studying the characteristics, functions, and interactions of different fish cells is important for understanding their roles in disease and evolution. However, most single cell RNA-seq studies in fish are restricted to a few specific organs, leaving a comprehensive cell landscape that aims to characterize the heterogeneity and connections among body-wide organs largely unexplored.

Purpose: Sex differences in Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) incidence have been well documented, yet little is known about whether the effect of sex on postoperative outcomes. This study aims to investigate the sex differences of postoperative outcomes of HSCR using propensity score matching (PSM) analysis.
Methods: Retrospective review of 304 patients with HSCR who received single-stage laparoscopic transanal pull-through modified Swenson procedure in a single-center was conducted with assessments of clinical data.

Purpose/objectives: Low Dose-Rate Brachytherapy (LDR) and High Dose-Rate Brachytherapy (HDR) are options for favorable risk prostate cancer. We hypothesized that HDR provides comparable disease control with less urinary toxicity. Primary objective was to determine prostate cancer control at 48 months, defined as a PSA < 0.

Aim And Background: This study investigates the impact of D3 lymph node dissection extent on postoperative bowel function and nutritional status in patients undergoing radical surgery for right-sided colon cancer. Given that postoperative diarrhea can significantly affect the quality of life, we examined whether dissection boundaries influence these outcomes.
Methods: This was a prospective, randomized controlled trial conducted at a high-volume tertiary hospital.
