Abstract Background Disorders of the vestibular system are frequent in cats. This study aimed to describe the clinical presentation, diagnostic findings, underlying aetiologies and outcome of cats with peripheral vestibular syndrome (PVS). Methods This was a retrospective study of cats presented with PVS at four referral hospitals.

Slowly cycling Rho kinase-dependent actomyosin cross-bridge slippage explains intrinsic high compliance of detrusor smooth muscle [PDF]
Biological soft tissues are viscoelastic because they display timeindependent pseudoelasticity and time-dependent viscosity. However, there is evidence that the bladder may also display plasticity, defined as an increase in strain that is unrecoverable ...

Iatrogenic pulsus alternans in a dog undergoing median sternotomy
Abstract A 6‐year‐old, 21.8 kg, female, spayed Siberian husky was referred for management of a spontaneous bilateral pneumothorax, due to a ruptured pulmonary bleb. During surgery, sterile saline was instilled on three occasions in order to locate the damaged lung tissue and ensure complete ligation.

Pericardium of the frog, Rana esculenta, is morphologically designed as a lymphatic space [PDF]
The importance of the pericardium and the pericardial fluid (PF) in the control of cardiac function has emerged over the past few years. Despite the acknowledgment that amphibians are exposed to both dehydration and excessive water accumulation, nothing ...

Assessment of endoscopic and external approaches for frontal sinus lesions
Abstract Objectives The use of endoscopic approaches has revolutionized the management of frontal sinus (FS) lesions. However, external approaches still play a significant role in select conditions. Various factors determine the decision to utilize endoscopic or external approaches such as the lesion location, extension, and patient's characteristics ...

Fixation-induced cell blebbing on spread cells inversely correlates with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate level in the plasma membrane [PDF]
While most attention has been focused on physiologically generated blebs, the molecular mechanisms for fixation-induced cell blebbing are less investigated. We show that protein-fixing (e.g. aldehydes and picric acid) but not lipid-stabilizing (e.g. OsO4
