Assessment of circulating concentrations of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines and nitric oxide in dogs with brachycephalic airway obstruction syndrome

, 2013
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate plasma concentrations of inflammatory mediators in dogs with brachycephalic airway obstruction syndrome, identify a possible role for these mediators in the syndrome, and investigate the relationship between plasma concentrations ...

Computed tomographic features of presumed normal palatine tonsils in 140 dogs

Journal of Small Animal Practice, Volume 67, Issue 8, Page 739-748, August 2026.
Objectives The purpose of this retrospective study was to describe the CT features of presumed normal canine palatine tonsils. Materials and Methods Pre‐ and post‐contrast head CT studies of 140 dogs without tonsillar disease were included. Subjective evaluation of palatine tonsils included contrast enhancement pattern, differentiation from surrounding

Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) classification in dogs based on respiratory noise analysis using machine learning [PDF]

, 2021
Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) is a problem in several dog breeds due to a compressed shape of the skull. It is classified as BOAS grade 0-3, where 0 is normal breathing and 3 is the most severe grade of the syndrome.

RECOVER Guidelines: First Aid for Dogs and Cats. Clinical Guidelines

Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, Volume 36, Issue S1, Page S36-S62, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To present evidence‐ and consensus‐based guidelines for prehospital first aid in dogs and cats. Design Prioritized clinical questions pertaining to first aid posed in the Population–Intervention–Comparator–Outcome (PICO) format were used to inform systematic literature searches by information specialists, which facilitated extraction

Use of respiratory signal analysis to assess severity of Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) in dogs

Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) is a potentially life-threatening condition that can be challenging to diagnose and grade objectively. The aim of this study was to investigate the use of respiratory signal analysis to assess severity of

Airway Involvement in Conradi–Hünermann–Happle Syndrome: A Novel Clinical Manifestation

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 7, Page 3240-3245, July 2026.
We report the first documented case of airway involvement in Conradi–Hünermann–Happle syndrome (CDPX2), an X‐linked dominant form of chondrodysplasia punctata caused by pathogenic variants in EBP. A 2‐month‐old female with genetically confirmed CDPX2 developed severe subglottic stenosis and persistent respiratory distress requiring CPAP; cross ...

Static respiratory compliance in anaesthetised and intubated brachycephalic dogs with and without brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome

The Veterinary Journal
The impact of brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome in dogs (BOAS) on respiratory mechanics is unclear and may affect the choice of ventilation strategies during anaesthesia. This prospective study included 56 client-owned brachycephalic dogs, allocated to be BOAS (n = 26) or non-BOAS dogs (n = 30) based on functional grading.

Systemic aspects of brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome

Abstract The aim of the study was to evaluate systemic health variables in brachycephalic dogs affected by brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) and compare them with mesocephalic dogs, assessing if any changes are related to BOAS grades.
