Spreading depolarization and its influence on epileptiform activity
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Spreading depolarization (SD) is a transient disruption of electrographic activity that slowly propagates through the gray matter by chemical contiguity, and it is characterized by a large depolarization of neurons and glial cells. SD, which is associated with massive changes in ion homeostasis, including extreme increases in [K+]o, was shown ...

Renal tubular acidosis in a mule mare
Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.Summary Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) in horses is differentiated into type I (distal) and type II (proximal) forms. We report the diagnostic evaluation and treatment of type I RTA in a 13‐year‐old mule mare that was referred because of lethargy and inappetence of several weeks' duration as well as lack of manure, anorexia and mild colic for 3 days.

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Age‐associated changes in intestinal permeability and function have not been studied in domestic cats, leaving a key factor in the relationship between age and digestive health in cats unexplored. Due to factors not currently understood, mature and senior cats may experience a loss of fat and protein digestibility, along with a loss of body ...

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 ...
