Hydrocortisone Aceponate for Chronic Otitis: Long-Term Efficacy. [PDF]

Vet Dermatol
Effective management of otitis externa (OE) requires addressing all contributing factors to prevent chronicity and recurrence. Evidence on the long‐term efficacy of topical corticosteroids in preventing recurrence and secondary infections remains limited. This retrospective noncontrolled study evaluated the efficacy of hydrocortisone aceponate (HCA) in

Detection of canine external ear canal lesions using artificial intelligence. [PDF]

Vet Dermatol
Background – Early and accurate diagnosis of otitis externa is crucial for correct management yet often can be challenging. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a valuable diagnostic tool in human medicine. Currently, no such tool is available in veterinary dermatology/otology.

Single Cold Atmospheric Plasma Therapy May Improve the Treatment Outcome of Canine Otitis Externa With Secondary Infection. [PDF]

Vet Dermatol
Background: Otitis externa with secondary bacterial or yeast infection is a common problem in small animal practice. Cold physical plasma (CPP) has been reported to have antimicrobial activity in vitro. Results: Ears treated additionally with CPP showed lower otic scores after 21 days compared to nontreated ears, although this difference was not ...

Incidence Rate of Otitis Externa Episodes in Atopic Dogs Is Reduced by a Therapeutic Diet in a 6-Month Randomised, Blinded, Controlled, Clinical Trial. [PDF]

Vet Dermatol
ABSTRACT Background Recurrent otitis externa (OE) episodes commonly affect dogs with canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) despite ongoing cAD treatment. Objective To determine if a therapeutic diet with active ingredients targeting the skin barrier and allergy pathways reduces the incidence rate of OE.

Comparison between clinical evaluations and laboratory findings and the impact of biofilm on antimicrobial susceptibility in vitro in canine otitis externa

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 586-596, December 2023., 2023
Background – In clinical practice, the diagnosis of otitis externa (OE) normally is based on otoscopic examination and cytological findings, followed by empirical treatment with topic drugs. Biofilm‐producing bacteria are frequently present in OE, even if its presence is often underdiagnosed. Hypothesis/Objectives – The primary aim of this study was to

The Zircon Story of the Niger River: Time‐Structure Maps of the West African Craton and Discontinuous Propagation of Provenance Signals Across a Disconnected Sediment‐Routing System

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 128, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023
Abstract The Niger River drains a large part of the West African Craton, where rocks ranging in age from Paleoarchean to recent offer an unexcelled opportunity to map the diverse time structures of sediment sources and provide essential information for provenance diagnoses.

Effect of an ear cleaner instillation containing lipacids in a model of re‐acidification of the external auditory canal in dogs

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 402-406, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Background In humans, the acidic pH of the ear canal plays a protective role against infection and a change towards alkalinity of the external auditory canal (EAC) is a local factor in the progression of acute to chronic otitis externa (OE).

Brachycephaly in French bulldogs and pugs is associated with narrow ear canals

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 214-e60, June 2022., 2022
Background Brachycephalic dog breeds have multiple skull malformations which may lead to anatomical changes in the external auditory canal. It is our frequent observation that in the otoscopic examination of the external ear in these breeds we are unable to visualise the tympanic membrane as a consequence of extreme narrowing of the proximal ear canal.

Influence of hospital size on antimicrobial resistance and advantages of restricting antimicrobial use based on cumulative antibiograms in dogs with Staphylococcus pseudintermedius infections in Japan

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 32, Issue 6, Page 668-e178, December 2021., 2021
Background Antimicrobial resistance in Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (SP) and the prevalence of meticillin‐resistant SP (MRSP) is increasing in dogs worldwide. Objectives To evaluate the influence of hospital size on antimicrobial resistance of SP and whether restricted use of antimicrobials based on antibiograms could reduce the identification of ...
