Multiple External Invasive Root Resorption and Calcification in Systemic Sclerosis—Case Report

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim There are few reports in the literature of multiple external invasive root resorption (EIRR) lesions in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc), and an association between root resorption and SSc is not well established. We report the only case that comprehensively illustrates—with the combination of histopathology, cone beam computed ...

Effect of Two Therapeutic Renal Diets on Hormonal and Regulatory Pathways Affecting Calcium Homeostasis in Cats With Early‐Stage Chronic Kidney Disease

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for hypercalcemia in cats. Phosphate‐restricted diets have also been implicated in causing hypercalcemia, in part because phosphate restriction increases the Ca:P ratio. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two different therapeutic renal foods on ionized (iCa ...

Synergistic Benefits of Butyric Acid and Resistant Potato Starch on Growth and Gut Health in Weaned Pigs

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Newly‐weaned piglets face challenges such as reduced feed intake, impaired gut function, and susceptibility to post‐weaning diarrhoea, increasing the need for dietary strategies that support gut health and growth. This study investigated the effects of dietary supplementation with butyric acid (BA), resistant potato starch (PS), and their ...
