Cranial cruciate ligament rupture is one of the most prevalent orthopedic injuries in veterinary medicine, significantly impacting canine stifle joint stability and biomechanics, subsequently, animal's quality life. This study investigates effectiveness custom-made knee orthoses as a conservative treatment for recent cranial ruptures dogs. Two dogs with were fitted individualized orthoses, their rehabilitation progress was monitored over 32 days. employed four-scale method to measure body...
Canine brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) is a conformation-related respiratory disorder of dog breeds having congenitally flattened facial and skull anatomy. The aim the study was to determine oxidative stress parameters, lipid peroxidation product malondialdehyde, antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) glutathione peroxidase in BOAS patients before after surgical treatment healthy dogs.Nine dogs that had not undergone surgery 39 were included study. classified as...
Abstract Background Radiologic findings after electrochemotherapy of large hepatic blood vessels and healthy parenchyma have not yet been described. Materials methods We performed a prospective animal model study with regulatory approval, including nine grower pigs. In each animal, four ultrasound-guided electroporated regions were created; in three regions, electrodes inserted into the lumen vessels. Two types tested; variable linear- fixed hexagonal-geometry electrodes. Ultrasonographic...
Abstract: In recent years, the analysis of extracellular particles (EPs) has become instrumental in deciphering intercellular communication and disease biomarkers. Interferometric light microscopy (ILM) emerged as a powerful label-free technique for real-time charac-terization nanoscale particles. This contribution presents first time measure-ments EPs directly diluted plasma by ILM on populations samples. The study involves measured number density EPs, corrected (taking into account...
Abstract: Blood derived products, such as autologous plasma, have high clinical importance and are applied in numerous therapeutic fields. The preparation of plasma from the patient's own blood is easy to perform by centrifugation, however, prep-aration procedure can significantly affect cells, platelets vesicles sample. Therefore, it utmost understand impact sample pro-cessing on chemical composition preparations well their biolog-ical activity. Here, we present a mass spectrometry-based...

Observations were made on a small flock of 50 sheep the native Slovenian Jezersko‐Solcava breed by investigators with dental training. The aim was to determine range naturally occurring diseases, so postmortem examinations performed animals slaughtered for meat or culled due disease. Additional data obtained examination 25 specimens submitted investigation unexplained death at pathology centre. Seventeen (34 per cent) had incisor disease but only five became clinically ill; all these...
Canicross is a sport discipline that connects human and canine athletes in running. Changes physiological, hematological, biochemical parameters, exercise-induced oxidative stress have not been thoroughly characterized canicross dogs. The aim of our study was the assessment health status trained dogs were subjected to two acute bouts exercise with their owners during training season. Health assessed by measuring rectal temperature, hematological as well blood parameters (plasma...

Objectives The use of thermal ablative therapies in the pancreatic tumors is limited because risk vessel injury and potential pancreatitis or fistula formation. Electrochemotherapy (ECT) an therapy with established role treatment cutaneous liver tumors. This study was designed to evaluate safety feasibility ECT pancreas a porcine survival model. Methods In first group, 4 animals underwent computed tomography (CT)–guided percutaneous bleomycin tail. second group (4 animals), intraoperative...
Abstract Background In this prospective study, we hypothesized that dogs with signs of brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) would show differences in left and right heart echocardiographic parameters compared without BOAS non-brachycephalic dogs. Results We included 57 (30 French Bulldogs 15 Pugs, 12 Boston Terriers) 10 control Brachycephalic had significantly higher ratios the atrium to aorta mitral early wave velocity diastolic septal annular velocity; smaller ventricular (LV)...

These can cause clinical signs of intoxication may lead to death an animal after mucosal contact or ingestion fire salamander. Although there are many anecdotal reports on dog with salamander, no published data available for that kind intoxication. We assume this is due fact most dogs die This paper describes case a which survived Publication report has certain value those people who deal...
The portosystemic shunt (PSS) is an abnormal communicating vessel between the portal and systemic vasculature. liver underdeveloped due to decreased blood flow. PSS may be congenital (intrahepatic or congenital) acquired (extrahepatic). Ammonia intestinal toxins are not cleared in liver, causing various clinical signs of hepatic encephalopathy. Medical treatment aimed at minimising stabilising cat prior surgical treatment. Surgical currently method choice; however, best occluding shunts has...
Recent feline behavioral research, spearheaded by Scott and Florkiewicz (2023), has made groundbreaking strides in decoding the complexity of cat communication. The study meticulously cataloged 276 facial expressions, each intricately linked to a broad spectrum cats’ emotional states communicative intents. This extensive array which includes “play face” akin those observed other species, signifies depth social interaction previously unacknowledged domestic cats. Ali nam ilustracija lahko...
Abstract: Congenital portosystemic shunts (PSS) present a significant challenge in veterinary medicine, requiring comprehensive analysis for effective diagnosis and management. This repository offers an extensive overview of 27 cases congenital PSS dogs, spanning the period from 2015 to 2023. The data are shown Table 1.

Extracellular nanoparticles (EPs) are a subject of increasing interest for their biological role as mediators in cell–cell communication; however, harvesting and assessment from bodily fluids challenging, processing can significantly affect samples. With the aim minimizing artifacts, we assessed number density (n) hydrodynamic diameter (Dh) EPs directly diluted plasma blood using following recently developed technique: interferometric light microscopy (ILM). We analyzed 613 samples human...

Brachycephalic dogs with brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) are a valuable animal model for sleep apnea (OSA) in humans. Clinical signs of upper obstruction improve after surgical treatment BOAS, but the impact surgery on morphology and function heart has not been studied. Therefore, we aimed to compare echocardiographic variables before BOAS. We included 18 client-owned BOAS (7 French Bulldogs, 6 Boston Terriers, 5 Pugs) scheduled correction. performed complete examination 12...
Introduction Due to altered anatomy of the upper respiratory tract, brachycephalic dogs exhibit increased airway resistance and reduced surface area for evaporative heat loss, predisposing them thermoregulatory problems, a syndrome referred as Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS). Compared non-brachycephalic dogs, breeds are more susceptible heat-related injuries even at low ambient temperatures relatively physical activity levels. Surgical treatment alleviates clinical signs,...
The aim of our retrospective study was to observe the healing effect medical honey on wounds in dogs. Honey debrides wounds, kills bacteria, lowers pH value reduces chronic inflammation, promotes infiltration fibroblasts and provides a moist environment, which is essential for wound healing. Twenty dogs with total 21 contaminated nonsurgical were included. Wounds treated left heal by second intention. For prevention desiccation bandage adherence, low-adherent absorbent pad used. smaller than...
