Deterministic finite automata for brachycephaly risk estimation in dog
Affictions, or predispositions to have particular disorders in an animal are often caused by speci c genes. However, some of these conditions could be avoided using genetic alterations during he breeding process. A good example is brachycephaly in dogs, which, in many cases, causes dyspnoea.

Maternal brachycephaly only does not influence umbilical artery resistance in late canine pregnancy
The popularity of canine brachycephalic breeds is rising in many countries of the world. Brachycephalic dogs are predisposed to developing brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS), resulting in lower partial pressure of oxygen in the arterial ...

Positional plagiocephaly: results of the osteopathic treatment of 424 infants. An observational retrospective cohort study [PDF]
Background Positional plagiocephaly is an asymmetrical flattened skull deformity whose incidence increased significantly in the last decades. Osteopathic treatment has been suggested to tackle early deformational sequences, in order to ensure the correct
