Abstract Background Syringomyelia (SM) is a prevalent inherited developmental condition in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (CKCSs) with Chiari-like malformation (CM), accompanied by variety of clinical manifestations, including signs neuropathic pain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) the gold standard SM diagnosis. However, it desirable to establish predictors that can identify CKCSs large syrinx needs treatment, as some owners cannot afford or lack access MRI. The aims study were investigate...
Abstract Background Syringomyelia (SM) and myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) are highly prevalent in Cavalier King Charles spaniels (CKCS). Cardiac status CKCS with without SM is currently unknown. Objectives To investigate the association between MMVD severity clinical signs of SM. Animals Fifty‐five CKCS: 40 (22 symptomatic 18 asymptomatic) 15 Methods A combined retrospective prospective study. MRI echocardiography were used to diagnose MMVD, respectively. The (left ventricle internal...
Objectives Bleeding diathesis is a complication in dogs infected with Angiostrongylus vasorum . This retrospective study investigated clinical and laboratory haemostatic differences A. ‐positive without signs of bleeding impact on survival. Materials Methods Demographics, type bleeding, haematocrit range tests, including thromboelastography derived velocity curves were retrospectively registered from dogs. All parameters compared between using univariable analyses. Binomial multinomial...
Abnormally high serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI) concentration, reflecting leakage from or necrosis of cardiomyocytes, is a negative prognosticator for death in dogs.To investigate critically ill cats whether cTnI concentration abnormally high, identify conditions associated with concentrations, and evaluate as an independent potential coprognosticator to the acute patient physiologic laboratory evaluation (APPLE) score cats.One hundred nineteen admitted intensive care units (ICU) 13 healthy...
Dirofilarosis is spreading among dogs and humans in Europe with infections being established many countries. Here, we describe the first molecular biologically confirmed case of D. repens infection an imported dog Denmark highlight potential zoonotic aspects from this emerging parasite central northern as at least one to two generations Dirofilaria spp. can occur per year Denmark.
Diastolic dysfunction is an early clinical feature of feline hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The left ventricular filling in diastole facilitated by the diastolic intraventricular pressure gradient (IVPG). study objectives were to evaluate color Doppler M-mode-derived IVPG calculation cats as a non-invasive assessment relaxation property determine normal ranges peak and investigate influence function heart rate (HR).One hundred six client-owned apparently healthy cats.Prospective...
Mitral regurgitation (MR) resulting from myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is a prevalent condition in dogs, particularly smaller breeds like Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (CKCSs) and Chihuahuas (CHHs). An accurate assessment of MR severity essential for effective treatment monitoring, yet standardized method has to be established. In this retrospective study, we evaluated 124 client-owned dogs diagnosed with MMVD, including 64 CKCSs 60 CHHs. Dogs were categorized into three stages:...
Objectives To present the prevalence and distribution of heart disease as well echocardiographic findings in English Bull Terriers. Materials Methods One hundred one Terriers were retrospectively included to evaluate disease. Secondly, a retrospective study on mitral valve abnormalities was performed three groups: control group (n=120, 19 breeds) used establish reference intervals for mean transmitral gradient; healthy (n=25) an with (n= 18). Healthy which inflow parameters not obtainable...
