CERAMIDES IN NORMAL DOGS VERSUS DOGS WITH ATOPIC DERMATITISmembers
As in humans, there is mounting evidence in support of an abnormal skin barrier contributing to the pathogenesis of canine atopic dermatitis (AD). Studies in people with AD have associated an abnormal skin barrier with deficiencies in ceramides, which represent important components of the stratum corneum (SC) intercellular lipid lamellae. Is this also true for dogs?

Serotonin in degenerative mitral valve diseases of the dogmembers
Although canine degenerative mitral valve disease (DMVD) is a very common problem, especially in middle-aged and old small dogs, little is known about the molecular abnormalities associated with the disease. This study from Pennsylvania gives fascinating new informations about the pathology, especilly the role of serotonin.

Patella alta and patella baja in large-breed dogsmembers
Also in large-breed dogs, patella luxations can be a problem, and sometimes it is difficult todefine the vertical position of the patella in clinically normal large-breed dogs. So 13 dogs were evaluated post mortem, and both hind limbs were harvested with intact stifle joints and mounted on a positioning device that allowed full range of motion of the stifle joint. Lateral radiographic views were obtained with the stifle joints positioned at each of 5 angles (148 degrees, 130 degrees, 113 degrees, 96 degrees, and 75 degrees) to be able to define the vertical position of the patella in this size of dogs.

Encephalitozoon cuniculi Infections in Dogsmembers
In rabbits, encephalitozoon cuniculi is well-known causing serious and often fatal ending infections. In dogs, Encephalitozoon (E.) cuniculi has been occasionally identified as a cause of neurological or renal disease, but cases are not well documented in the United States. As this case series shows, the infection is also serious in dogs and might be underdiagnosed especially in puppies!

Central venous pressure measurement in normal horsesmembers
The measurement of central venous pressure (CVP) has become a routine diagnostic procedure in small animals but it is still very difficult in horses, although also in this species it is an important diagnostic parameter. In this study, a technique of measurement of the CVP using a newly developed catheter in 20 healthy adult horses was investigated. Can it be recommended?

Thermal inactivation of Toxoplasma gondii oocysts in watermembers
Toxoplasma gondii, a ubiquitous parasitic protozoan, is emerging as an aquatic biological pollutant - the source of infection is not only raw or undercooked meat or cat feces as it has been assumed for a long time. Infections can also result from drinking water contaminated with environmentally resistant oocysts. Currently, recommendations regarding water treatment for oocyst inactivation have not been established. This new study illustrates, how resistant these oocysts can be...

Presumptive metronidazole toxicosis in a catmembers
Metronidazole has become a very popular drug in dogs in a variety of gastrointestinal diseases. Especially in the inflammatory bowel disease it is very efficious. Also in feline medicine this drug is more and more used. But cats are no small dogs - this interesting case report describes a presumptive case of metronidazole toxicity in a 3.4-kg adult cat.

Transcutaneous ultrasonographic diagnosis of mid- to late-gestation in cattlemembers
The diagnosis of gestation in cattle used to be made by rectal palpation. But like in other species, also in cattle the use of ultrasonography has been started. In this study from New Zealand, the practical application and image quality of transcutaneous ultrasonography across the right flank for the diagnosis of mid- to late-gestation in cattle was investigated. This method might be quicker and better tolerated by many animals...

New surgical technique for colorectal adenocarcinomasmembers
Colorectal malignant neoplasias are not too rare in dogs and normally they are very difficult to remove, especially if they are located at the colorectal junction. Also the caudal mesenteric artery is often associated with the tumor. This case report from Sydney describes what they do in these cases - with good success.

  • Esophagitis after removal of esophageal foreign bodiesmembers
    Foreign bodies in the esophagus are not rare in dogs - especially wooden sticks, bones or toys can be found there. At first of course it is important to remove the foreign body in these patients. In this study including 60 dogs the presence of esophagitis in dogs after esophagoscopy for diagnosis and treatment of esophageal foreign body and a relationship between the degree of esophageal injury and the clinical signs and outcome were evaluated.

    Novel findings in vitamin B2 deficiency in young chickensmembers
    Riboflavin (vitamin B2) deficiency in young chickens produces a demyelinating peripheral neuropathy - a fact that is known over decades. In this Australian study on very young chickens fed with a riboflavin-deficient diet it could be shown for the first time that riboflavin deficiency in young, rapidly growing chickens produces selective injury to peripheral nerve trunks, with relative sparing of spinal nerve roots and distal nerve branches to muscle and skin...
