Signalment risk factors for cutaneous and renal glomerular vasculopathy (Alabama rot) in dogs in the UK [PDF]
, 2018 Seasonal outbreaks of cutaneous and renal glomerular vasculopathy (CRGV) have been reported annually in UK dogs since 2012, yet the aetiology of the disease remains unknown. The objectives of this study were to explore whether any breeds had an increased

Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to identify genes carrying risk alleles associated with an increased risk of periodontitis and to place them in a biological context. Methods: The literature was reviewed based on predefined criteria. Results: The identified genes largely fall into functions linking immune response with tissue repair. The genes

Dried plasma retains hemostatic function and thermal stability during Arctic military operations
Transfusion, EarlyView.Abstract Background Dried plasma offers a practical alternative for remote damage control resuscitation, providing hemostatic support and volume replacement. The Arctic presents challenges that necessitate the need for blood‐based resuscitation to extend the “golden hour.” To address this, we evaluated the hemostatic and thermal stability of dried ...

Intracranial aneurysm’s association with genetic variants, transcription abnormality, and methylation changes in ADAMTS genes [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Purpose The development of intracranial aneurysm (IA) has been linked to genetic factors. The current study examines the potential role of genes encoding disintegrin and metalloproteinase using thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS) in IA development.
