Current endogenous indicators utilised in avian medicine are not sensitive enough to detect renal disease its early stages. Alternative markers ought be examined as a result. The aim is investigate the accuracy of limited-sampling models for glomerular filtration rate (GFR) adult seagulls using plasma clearance iohexol (IOX). We compared GFR estimated from concentration IOX at 3 sampling times, known limited models, with that 6 times (reference model). reference model's mean ± SD was 6.88...
Mastitis is one of the most frequent diseases in dairy farms and occurs both clinical subclinical forms, resulting substantial economic losses. Asymmetrical dimethylarginine (ADMA) symmetrical (SDMA) are biomarkers that inhibit nitric oxide synthesis. Elevated ADMA levels associated with an increased risk mortality human medicine dogs a potential need for intensive care, while SDMA correlates poor prognoses humans progression renal disease horses, though its impact varies depending on...
Background The diseases most frequent associated with SIRS in adult horses are those involving the gastrointestinal tract. An early diagnosis should be goal management of . Objective objective this study was to evaluate plasma procalcitonin ( PCT ) concentration healthy and assess differences between two groups. Animals Seventy‐eight (30 48 ). Methods Prospective vivo multicentric study. Horses were classified as if at least 2 following criteria met: abnormal leukocyte count or distribution,...
Besides its translational value, an improved understanding of dog longevity and mortality is necessary to guide health management decisions, breed selection, improve welfare. In order analyse the lifespan dogs in Italy, identify most common causes death, evaluate possible risk factors, anonymised medical records were collected from 9 veterinary teaching hospitals 2 public institutions. Data regarding breed, sex, neuter status, age, diagnosis, mechanism death retrieved. Cause (COD) was...
Abstract Smartphone-based technology for ECG recording has recently spread as a complementary tool electrocardiographic screening and monitoring in adult horses other animal species. The present study aimed to assess the feasibility accuracy of smartphone-based healthy foals. This was prospective observational (authorization n. 45,865/2016) including 22 foals aged less than 21 days. A reference standard base-apex (rECG) acquired, smartphone (sECG) recorded immediately after by using single...
Equine gastric ulcer syndrome (EGUS) is the most common disease of stomach in horses and treatment based on oral administration omeprazole for at least 28 days. Aim this study was to compare efficacy two formulations omeprazole—powder paste gastro-enteric resistant granules—in naturally occurring ulcers racehorses. Thirty-two adult racehorses, aged between 2 10 years old, with clinical signs EGUS were included blinded, randomized trial. Two gastroscopies performed evaluate lesions squamous...
To determine the prevalence and describe ocular abnormalities in healthy Standardbred foals within 48 h of birth.One hundred two neonatal foals.All had an unassisted delivery. On basis physical examination results hematological biochemical parameters, all were unaffected by systemic diseases. A complete ophthalmic was performed birth. Foals with hemorrhages re-examined weekly until resolved.65/102 (63.7%) did not show abnormalities, while 37/102 (36.3%) cases, present. Retinal...
Summary The study was performed on 39 live donkeys that underwent gastroscopic examination. lesions were recorded in accordance with the European College of Equine Internal Medicine Consensus Statement guidelines. presence Gasterophilus sp. larvae also recorded. Larvae collected and identified to species level. Fisher's exact test used compare different prevalence values for sex, age, anatomical distribution lesions. Gastric present 20/39 (51.3% [35.6–67%]) donkeys; 19/39 (48.7% [95%...
