Single‐dose enflicoxib versus a 7‐day course of firocoxib for postoperative pain control in dogs undergoing orthopaedic surgery: A multicentre, randomised, masked, non‐inferiority study

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Perioperative analgesia is essential in dogs undergoing orthopaedic surgery, and enflicoxib's long duration makes single‐dose administration attractive. Methods A prospective, multicentre, randomised, masked trial compared enflicoxib (8 mg/kg) given 24 hours before surgery with firocoxib (5 mg/kg) given daily for 7 days. Two hundred

Estimation of Genomic Breed Composition for Purebred and Crossbred Animals Using Sparsely Regularized Admixture Models

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
A variety of statistical methods, such as admixture models, have been used to estimate genomic breed composition (GBC). These methods, however, tend to produce non-zero components to reference breeds that shared some genomic similarity with a test animal.

Comparing Alternative Single-Step GBLUP Approaches and Training Population Designs for Genomic Evaluation of Crossbred Animals

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
As crossbreeding is extensively used in some livestock species, we aimed to evaluate the performance of single-step GBLUP (ssGBLUP) and weighted ssGBLUP (WssGBLUP) methods to predict Genomic Estimated Breeding Values (GEBVs) of crossbred animals ...

DETERMINANTS OF PUREBRED BEEF BULL PRICE DIFFERENTIALS

Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 1996
Bulls are an important investment for commercial beef cattle producers since, over time, bulls introduce most of the new genetic attributes into typical beef cow herds. Therefore, heritable bull traits determine bull prices. Bulls possess a large number of traits to consider in pricing.

Hepatic Copper Concentrations in Purebred and Mixed-breed Dogs [PDF]

Veterinary Pathology, 1990
Histomorphologic, histochemical, and atomic absorption analysis studies were performed on liver tissue from 623 clinically normal purebred and mixed-breed dogs to assess the range of hepatic copper concentrations, the histologic distribution of copper, and the histomorphologic changes associated with the various copper concentrations that were found ...

Use of VetCompass Australia data to estimate body weight for antimicrobial stewardship in Australian dogs

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Evaluation of the appropriateness of antimicrobial use requires multiple data elements, including the indication for treatment, duration of therapy and dose of the drug used. To calculate the dose the volume of active ingredient and animal weight are required.

Importance of using genetic data to inform conservation captive breeding: A tale of two species of threatened macaws (Ara spp.)

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Unmanaged captive populations of threatened species often harbor hidden genetic risks, so using genomic tools, we audited a large private macaw collection and uncovered extensive hybridization and high inbreeding. Our findings provide an actionable framework for how routine genetic screening can be used to mitigate these risks, manage captive breeding ...

Frequency and distribution of 152 genetic disease variants in over 100,000 mixed breed and purebred dogs

PLoS Genetics, 2018
Knowledge on the genetic epidemiology of disorders in the dog population has implications for both veterinary medicine and sustainable breeding. Limited data on frequencies of genetic disease variants across breeds exists, and the disease heritage of ...

Frequency, Risk Factors, and Mortality for Diabetes Mellitus in 1 225 130 Cats Under Primary Veterinary Care in the United Kingdom in 2019

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine
Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a common endocrinopathy in cats. General population epidemiology and mortality studies on DM are lacking. Objectives Describe the incidence, prevalence, risk factors, and mortality for DM in cats under primary ...
