Pregabalin contributes to increased recovery time from isoflurane anaesthesia for magnetic resonance imaging in horses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 3, Page 736-746, May 2026.
Abstract Background Pregabalin reduces excitatory neurotransmitter release and is used for anxiolysis in humans, cats, and horses. The effects of pregabalin on equine recovery following isoflurane anaesthesia are unknown. Objectives To determine if pre‐anaesthetic oral pregabalin influences recovery time and/or quality from isoflurane anaesthesia in ...

“Cat scratch colon” causing cecal perforation as a rare complication due to barotrauma during colonoscopy: A case report and literature review

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract “Cat scratch colon” (CSC), characterized by spontaneous bright‐red linear markings or mucosal laceration with bleeding due to air insufflation barotrauma, is a rare complication during colonoscopy. These mucosal lacerations can present as superficial tears that do not generally have clinical repercussions or as deeper tears that damage the ...
