  "summary": "This study found that topical anaesthetic (Tri-Solfen®) significantly reduced wound sensitivity in neonatal piglets after castration for up to 4 hours, compared to lignocaine injection or no treatment. It suggests topical anaesthesia is a practical and affordable welfare improvement.",
