The animal cancer burden is essential for the translational value of companion animals in comparative oncology. present work aims to describe, analyze, and compare frequencies associations tumors dogs cats based on Animal Cancer Registry created by Vet-OncoNet. With 9079 registries, regarding 2019 2020, 81% (n = 7355) belonged dogs. In comparison, have a general one-year right advance mean age diagnosis compared multivariate topography group analysis shows distinct pattern between two...
Analysis of canine and feline tumor malignancy data can help clinicians identify high-risk patients make more accurate decisions. Based on a sample 16,272 cancer records, including 3266 cats 13,006 dogs, collected from January 2019 to December 2021 in the Vet-OncoNet Network database, this study aimed compare profile between considering animal-related factors (sex, age, breed), topography, geographic location using mixed-effects logistic regression model. Cats had higher proportion malignant...
Cancer registries are fundamental tools for collecting epidemiological cancer data and developing prevention control strategies. While registration is common in the human medical field, many attempts to develop animal have been launched over time, but most discontinued. A pivotal aspect of availability coding systems, as provided by International Classification Diseases Oncology (ICD-O). Within Global Initiative Veterinary Surveillance (GIVCS), established foster coordinate worldwide, a...
Canine lymphoma is one of the most common canine neoplasms, but little known regarding effects exposure to tobacco smoke on their biologic behavior. As cytology frequent diagnostic method lymphoma, aims this study were perform an immunocytochemical lymphomas, including subtyping and cell proliferation analysis, establish correlation with exposure.A total 23 dogs diagnosed subjected careful fine-needle biopsies enlarged lymph nodes. The smears air-dried, fixed cold acetone,...
Vet-OncoNet is a replicable tripartite animal cancer database with the scientific and academic purposes of collecting data producing evidence-based knowledge for science in general. Inspired by One Health vision, uses business intelligence tools to optimize process capturing, treating, reporting national level three interfaces: ACR (animal registry, pathology-based), COR (clinical oncology vet practice-based) RFR (risk factor owner-based). The first results show that skin mammary gland are...
Dogs spontaneously develop mammary gland tumors (MGT) and exhibit striking similarities in clinical epidemiological characteristics to human breast cancer (HBC). Descriptive comparative analysis of HBC canine MGT with a focus on evaluating geographical distribution were the aims this study. cases obtained from North Regional Oncological Registry (RORENO) (2010–2015) Vet-OncoNet (2019–2022). Analyses performed based published well accepted classification systems (ICD-O-3.2 for humans...
This study aimed to provide a comprehensive picture of the life expectancy dogs in Portugal, focusing on impact diverse factors including breed, sex, size, and skull shape. The final dataset, gathering data from national registry database, consisted 278,116 with confirmed deaths. mean lifespan at birth for all was around 8.91 years, female tended have similar male dogs. analysis 20 most common non-Portuguese breeds 10 Portuguese revealed that Yorkshire Terriers had highest (10.89 years)...
Abstract Thyroid tissue in teleosts is located mainly the pharyngeal region, usually reaching other adjacent anatomical locations. Herein, a nodular lesion left operculum of Senegal seabream ( Diplodus bellottii ) was surgically excised and sent for microscopical evaluation. Microscopically, presented irregular borders consisted columnar epithelial cells arranged tubulopapillary pattern, surrounding central lumen filled with acellular, acidophilic homogeneous, material (‘colloid’). To...
Background: Lymphomas are the most common hematopoietic neoplasms in dogs and represent a heterogeneous group, as occurs humans. Considering role of models human lymphomas geographical correlation cases canine lymphoma, it is important to continuously assess epidemiological distribution lymphoma subtypes dogs. Aim: The aim this study was provide survey diagnosed from 2005 2016 academic veterinary pathology laboratory University Porto. Methods: A total 75 by histopathology Porto district were...
Environmental factors, largely influenced by human behavior, account for approximately 80% of malignant tumors. Risk factors associated with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) have been identified in various countries among both humans and domestic animals. This study aimed to investigate potential risk NHL dogs residing the district Porto, Portugal. A comprehensive survey comprising 70 questions was administered 113 dog owners, including 55 cases 58 controls. Our findings revealed that weighing...
