Summary Lymphoma in horses is uncommon and rarely diagnosed as a cause of ataxia. This case report describes a 2‐year‐old Standardbred cryptorchid colt who presented with acute onset of grade 3–4/5 spinal ataxia in all four limbs, with the hindlimbs more severely affected than forelimbs and severe proprioceptive deficits.

Method of making an ion beam sputter-etched ventricular catheter for hydrocephalus shunt [PDF]
The centricular catheter comprises a multiplicity of inlet microtubules. Each microtubule has both a large opening at its inlet end and a multiplicity of microscopic openings along its lateral surfaces.

Cone beam computed tomographic myelography in horses with cervical vertebral compressive myelopathy
Abstract Background While computed tomographic (CT) myelography is increasingly available and has been evaluated in alive horses, objective criteria for diagnosing cervical vertebral compressive myelopathy (CVCM) are lacking. Objectives To establish morphometric dimensions of the cervical vertebral canal and spinal cords from horses with CVCM and ...

TRPM3 activation causes CGRP release in trigeminal neurons: Implications for migraine mechanisms
Abstract Background The transient receptor potential melastatin 3 (TRPM3) ion channel has been implicated in sensory modulation and pain transmission and may contribute to migraine pathophysiology through calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) release in the trigeminovascular system. This study aimed to investigate TRPM3 activation and its role in CGRP

Anatomy of spinal CSF loss in the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis)
India ink introduced into the cranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) compartment of Alligator diffuses along the spinal cord and exits the spinal compartment using perineural flow, resulting in a prominent “ink cuff” forming at the base of the spinal nerve. In Alligator, the region of the ink cuff is drained by a small lymphatic vessel.

Do plantar calcaneal spurs make the plantar aponeurosis enthesis stronger? A biomechanical analysis
Novel testing set up for determining enthesial avulsion parameters. Donor calcanei were dissected to isolate the central band of the plantar fascia, and mounted in a custom 3D‐printed rig (Fig A, B, C) for uniaxial tensile testing of the plantar fascia enthesis (Fig D). This study demonstrated no significant differences in the avulsion parameters, Fmax
