Cerebrospinal Fluid Creatine Kinase as a Biomarker in Dogs With Neurologic Disease: A Multivariate Analysis to Guide Future Directions

open access: yesVeterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Creatine kinase (CK) is typically associated with skeletal muscle injury, but elevated CK in blood or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) may also be reflective of central nervous system damage. Previous research has therefore explored the role of CK as a biomarker of neurologic disease in veterinary patients.

The Pros & Cons of Measuring Plasma Ammonia in the Management of Patients With Cirrhosis: An ISHEN Debate

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Ammonia is a nitrogenous molecule which is primarily generated in the gastrointestinal tract. The neurotoxicity of ammonia plays a critical role in the liver's regulation of circulating ammonia levels. In liver disease, an increase in blood ammonia has been long implicated in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE), a neurological ...

Delayed Hypothalamic Dysfunction Presenting as Recurrent Hypothermia After Treatment of Suprasellar Germinoma: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Long‐term survivors of suprasellar germinomas may develop delayed hypothalamic dysfunction, presenting as recurrent hypothermia after years of apparently normal thermoregulation. Recognition of this delayed complication and proactive thermal management are essential to prevent severe hypothermic episodes.

Heart Failure Progression in the Setting of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation, Frequent Premature Ventricular Complexes, and Malignancy‐Related Limitations to Guideline‐Directed Medical Therapy: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Persistent atrial fibrillation, frequent premature ventricular complexes, and limited tolerance of guideline‐directed medical therapy contributed to progressive ventricular dysfunction, with LVEF declining from approximately 50% to 20%–25%. AV nodal ablation with CRT‐D implantation provided durable ventricular rate control and biventricular pacing.
