Dorsal ischaemic myelopathy in a dog: A case of unilateral, focal predominantly sensory loss
Abstract A 3‐year‐3‐month‐old, neutered, male Great Dane was presented with peracute left hindlimb monoparesis. Although voluntary movement was present, the dog was effectively non‐ambulatory due to its size. Proprioception, nociception and spinal reflexes were absent in the left hindlimb, localising the lesion to a left L4–S1 myelopathy.

Pitfalls in diagnosing and long‐term management of ceroid lipofuscinosis NCL4A in a mixed‐breed dog
Abstract An 8‐year‐old, spayed, female, mixed‐breed dog was presented with a 9‐month history of occasionally stumbling on walks, having difficulty navigating stairs and jumping into the car. A prior computed tomography scan of the head revealed mild leptomeningeal enhancement and suggested meningoencephalitis.

Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy for lung cancer: Correlation between dose and volume
Abstract Background In lung cancer radiotherapy, the volume of the lung receiving a dose above 20 Gy (V20Gy) and the mean lung dose are widely recognized dosimetric indicators for predicting radiation pneumonitis. However, there is currently no unified model to predict the minimum achievable values of V20Gy and mean lung dose.

ABSTRACT Background X‐linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X‐ALD) is a neurometabolic disorder caused by pathogenic variants in ABCD1, leading to slowly progressive spinal cord disease in nearly all affected men. Sensitive biomarkers to quantify disease severity and predict progression are needed for clinical care and trial design.

Gephyrin Neurological Autoimmunity
Gephyrin is a postsynaptic scaffold protein essential for inhibitory neurotransmission. Gephyrin‐immunoglobulin G (IgG) was reported, decades ago, in a single case of paraneoplastic stiff‐person‐like syndrome, but its broader clinical relevance remains unknown.
