Borna disease virus infection: Retrospective case series of five horses and two donkeys in Switzerland

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Borna disease is an acute to subacute, rarely chronic non‐purulent meningoencephaylomyelitis affecting mainly horses and sheep. This case series describes the clinical signs, diagnosis, treatment, outcome and post‐mortem findings of five horses and two donkeys with this condition. The equids affected were geldings or mares of various breeds and

Case Report: Efficacy of Reduced Doses of Asfotase Alfa Replacement Therapy in an Infant With Hypophosphatasia Who Lacked Severe Clinical Symptoms

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
BackgroundHypophosphatasia is a rare bone disease characterized by impaired bone mineralization and low alkaline phosphatase activity. Here, we describe the course of bone-targeted enzyme replacement therapy with asfotase alpha for a female infant ...

Aetiological relevance of haematological, biochemical and endocrine parameters on equine odontoclastic tooth resorption and hypercementosis (EOTRH)

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The dental syndrome EOTRH is a painful, progressive dental disease with an unknown aetiology. The often painful nature of EOTRH emphasises the need for a better knowledge of the underlying pathogenic mechanism and risk factors. A comparative analysis of haematological, biochemical and endocrine values in EOTRH‐affected and non ...

Adverse effects of simulated hyper- and hypo-phosphatemia on endothelial cell function and viability. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Dysregulation of phosphate homeostasis as occurs in chronic kidney disease is associated with cardiovascular complications. It has been suggested that both hyperphosphatemia and hypophosphatemia can cause cardiovascular disease.

Construction of a prognostic assessment model for diabetic nephropathy based on serum fibrinogen and renal tissue IFTA score

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore the association between serum fibrinogen (FIB) and clinicopathological features and renal prognosis in type 2 diabetic nephropathy (T2DN), and develop a web‐based dynamic model to predict renal progression. Methods This paper retrospectively enrolled 173 biopsy‐proven T2DN patients and stratified them by the optimal FIB ...

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 ...

Acceptance and Preference of a Commercial Dry Renal Diet in Healthy Cats: An In‐Home Proof‐of‐Concept Trial

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cats diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have shown a better prognosis when consuming an appropriate renal diet, which makes its palatability a key factor in ensuring proper compliance. A proof‐of‐concept trial with a commercial dry renal diet was conducted in 33 healthy cats to assess its palatability over three consecutive 6‐day ...
