Neonatal Acute Kidney Injury—An Australian and New Zealand Perspective

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute kidney injury (AKI) is increasingly recognized as a critical and underdiagnosed condition among neonates, with significant short and long‐term implications for survival, kidney function, and long‐term cardiovascular health. Neonatal physiology, including ongoing nephrogenesis, immature renal haemodynamics, and limited glomerular ...

Allergy to uncommon pets: new allergies but the same allergens.

Frontiers in Immunology, 2013
The prevalence of exotic pet allergies has been increasing over the last decade. Years ago, the main allergy-causing domestic animals were dogs and cats, although nowadays there is an increasing number of allergic diseases related to insects, rodents ...

Lipocalin comes callin’ on the hippocampus [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2011
Several decades of clinical and basic research have characterized the complex effects of stress on the brain and body (1–4). Stress, commonly defined as real or implied threat to homeostasis, initially triggers a protective response that helps the organism to survive and adapt to the stressful experience. This short-term response to stress that enables

Effect of Dietary Vitamin A, Breed, and Kidney Function on the Onset of Urinary Vitamin A Excretion and the Vitamin A Transport Complex in Growing Dogs

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vitamin A (retinol and retinyl esters) is present in substantial amounts in the urine of healthy adult dogs, but the mechanisms affecting its excretion are poorly understood. To assess whether the onset of urinary vitamin A excretion is dependent on dietary vitamin A intake, breed, and/or parameters of kidney function, 48 puppies from two ...

Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in the red and near‐infrared range can significantly modulate the secondary injury response and promote the reparative and regenerative potential of neural tissue after spinal cord injury (SCI). At present, due to the nature of delivery methods, the most effective dose and irradiance at the injury site to optimize ...

In silico analysis of a major allergen from Rattus norvegicus, Rat n 1, and cross-reactivity with domestic pets [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

F1000Research, 2019
Background: Lipocalins play a role in the cellular trafficking of pheromones and are involved in allergic responses to domestic pets. However, the cross-reactivity among allergens of this group has been poorly explored, and the pheromone linking capacity

Lipocalin-2 and intestinal diseases

World Journal of Gastroenterology
Dysfunction of the intestinal barrier is a prevalent phenomenon observed across a spectrum of diseases, encompassing conditions such as mesenteric artery dissection, inflammatory bowel disease, cirrhosis, and sepsis. In these pathological states, the integrity of the intestinal barrier, which normally serves to regulate the selective passage of ...

Sepsis in Dogs and Cats—Consensus Definition and Clinical Criteria

Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sepsis is the clinical syndrome that results from the host response to severe or widespread infection and is a frequent cause of death in veterinary critical care settings. Rapid diagnosis aids early treatment initiation, and hence, how sepsis is defined and identified clinically has implications for patient outcomes.

Seven days of mixed‐method heat acclimation improved markers of cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory strain during exercise‐heat stress

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A mixed‐method heat acclimation (HA) protocol may optimise performance by supporting the training taper while promoting thermal adaptation; however, the impact on cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory adjustments to protect health is unknown. Therefore, we examined the effects of a mixed‐method heat protocol on physiological responses, including
