Neuter status as a risk factor for canine intervertebral disc herniation (IVDH) in dachshunds: a retrospective cohort study [PDF]
Canine Genetics and Epidemiology, 2018 Background Intervertebral disc herniation (IVDH) involves displacement of the intervertebral disc secondary to disc degeneration and is extremely common in dachshunds. Clinical signs include pain with or without paresis or paralysis.

Results of routine thoracic radiographic examinations rarely impact the plan to proceed with anesthetic procedures in dogs with presumed acute intervertebral disc herniation [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary ScienceIntroductionAcute thoracolumbar intervertebral disc herniation (IVDH) constitutes an emergency because associated neurological clinical signs can be progressive, with prognosis dependent on preoperative presence of deep pain perception.

Long-term changes of Th17 and regulatory T cells in peripheral blood of dogs with spinal cord injury after intervertebral disc herniation [PDF]
BMC Veterinary Research, 2023 Background Intervertebral disc herniation (IVDH) is one of the most common causes of spinal cord injury (SCI) in dogs. As a result of acute SCI, a complex inflammatory response occurs in the spinal cord.

Immunoglobulin profiling with large high-density peptide microarrays as screening method to detect candidate proteins for future biomarker detection in dogs with steroid-responsive meningitis-arteritis [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 Steroid responsive meningitis arteritis (SRMA) is an aberrant Th2-mediated systemic inflammatory disease in dogs. The etiopathogenesis still remains unclear as no triggering pathogen or autoantigen could be found so far. Hypothesis.
