Prevalence of Chiari-like malformations in clinically unaffected dogs.

Harcourt-Brown, T R Campbell, J Warren-Smith, C Jeffery, N D Granger, N P

Published in Journal of veterinary internal medicine / American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine

The high prevalence of cerebellar indentation and impaction suggests that they may be normal anatomical variations and therefore unsuitable as definitions of CM. We suggest that future research into CM in dogs should define cases and controls more strictly so that overlap between normal and abnormal animals is minimized.

Use of alprazolam to facilitate mare-foal bonding in an aggressive postparturient mare.

Low-field MRI and multislice CT for the detection of cerebellar (foramen magnum) herniation in Cavalier King Charles Spa...

Kromhout, K van Bree, H Broeckx, B J G Bhatti, S Van Ham, L Polis, I Gielen, I

Published in Journal of veterinary internal medicine / American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine

Both techniques are useful for detecting CH and measuring CHL. Because CHL does not have a known direct impact on the clinical presentation of CM, CT can be used as a diagnostic tool in a routine clinical practice for CM in CKCS when MRI is not available. We emphasize that MRI is the standard screening technique in CKCS for breeding purposes to det...

Atlanto-axial malformation and instability in dogs with pituitary dwarfism due to an LHX3 mutation.

Voorbij, A M W Y Meij, B P van Bruggen, L W L Grinwis, G C M Stassen, Q E M Kooistra, H S

Published in Journal of veterinary internal medicine / American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine

The atlanto-axial abnormalities of the dwarf dogs resemble those encountered in human CPHD patients with an LHX3 mutation. These findings suggest an association between the LHX3 mutation in dogs with CPHD and atlanto-axial malformations. Consequently, pituitary dwarfs should be monitored closely for neurological signs.

Voluntary surveillance program for equine influenza virus in the United States from 2010 to 2013.

Pusterla, N Kass, P H Mapes, S Wademan, C Akana, N Barnett, C MacKenzie, C Vaala, W

Published in Journal of veterinary internal medicine / American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine

This study provides valuable and contemporary information on the frequency of EIV detected by qPCR in the United States. The results also underscore that older and previously vaccinated horses were susceptible to EIV.

Minimum inhibitory concentrations of equine Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis isolates (1996-2012).

Rhodes, D M Magdesian, K G Byrne, B A Kass, P H Edman, J Spier, S J

Published in Journal of veterinary internal medicine / American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine

The MIC50 and MIC90 values of antimicrobials evaluated in this study for equine isolates of C. pseudotuberculosis did not vary over time. Abscess location was not associated with different MIC patterns in cultured isolates. Several commonly used antimicrobials are active in vitro against C. pseudotuberculosis in vitro.

Histopathologic variation between liver lobes in dogs.

Kemp, S D Zimmerman, K L Panciera, D L Monroe, W E Leib, M S

Published in Journal of veterinary internal medicine / American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine

The likelihood of obtaining a sample that is reflective of the predominant histologic abnormality in the liver is increased when multiple liver lobes are biopsied.

Tethered cord syndrome associated with a thickened filum terminale in a dog.

De Decker, S Gregori, T Kenny, P J Hoy, C Erles, K Volk, H A

Determination of extracellular fluid volume in healthy and azotemic cats.

Finch, N C Heiene, R Elliott, J Syme, H M Peters, A M

Published in Journal of veterinary internal medicine / American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine

This study developed a method for determining ECFV from slope-intercept iohexol clearance which provides simultaneous assessment of renal function and an estimate of ECFV. ECFV does not differ between azotemic and nonazotemic cats, which suggests fluid volume loss or overload is not an important clinical feature in cats with mild chronic kidney dis...

Red blood cell phosphate concentration and osmotic resistance during dietary phosphate depletion in dairy cows.

Grünberg, W Mol, J A Teske, E

Published in Journal of veterinary internal medicine / American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine

In cattle, marked hypophosphatemia induced by dietary P depletion was neither associated with a decline in erythrocyte [Pi] nor with decreased osmotic resistance of erythrocytes. Phosphorus depletion alone is therefore unlikely to cause intravascular hemolysis and the plasma [Pi] is an unreliable index for the intracellular [Pi] of erythrocytes.
