Expanding the Differential Diagnosis of Ultrasonographic Flexor Digitorum Profundus–Flexor Carpi Ulnaris Dissociation of Echogenicity: Muscular Dystrophies

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Dissociation of echogenicity of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) and flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) on neuromuscular ultrasound has been reported to be a useful sign to differentiate inclusion body myositis (IBM) from more common disease mimics, but it is not clear that this finding is pathognomonic of IBM. Our study aimed to

Prognostic Value of a Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing‐Derived Summed Score in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Connective Tissue Disease‐Associated Interstitial Lung Disease: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
A cardiopulmonary exercise testing‐derived summed score effectively predicted mortality or lung transplantation risk in newly diagnosed interstitial lung disease. Higher summed scores (2–5) were associated with markedly lower event‐free survival rates.

Fatal spinal cord compression in a horse with chronic actinobacterial cranial nuchal bursitis

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary A 14‐year‐old warmblood gelding was managed for waxing and waning cranial nuchal bursitis for 2 years. Intensive medical and surgical management was not curative, and the patient was subjected to euthanasia after becoming acutely recumbent. Ante‐mortem and post‐mortem next generation sequencing of bursal tissue and post‐mortem conventional PCR ...

Molecular detection of pathogens in an equine fever diagnostic panel: 2019–2023

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background A common diagnostic approach for febrile horses is to test for a panel of potential pathogens. Panels are curated by expert opinion and vary between diagnostic laboratories. Objectives To report the results of a newly developed equine fever diagnostic panel (EFDP) between 2019 and 2023 and evaluate the frequency of positive results.
