Retrospective Analysis of Survival and Adverse Effects Associated With Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy in 12 Dogs With Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This retrospective analysis evaluated 12 dogs with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who received stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Dogs received between 6 and 25 Grey (Gy) per fraction for 1–5 fractions for a total dose of 13–30 Gy. Eleven patients (92%) experienced acute adverse effects (AE), with the majority being VRTOG grade 2–3 ...

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 7‐year‐old, male, castrated, mixed‐breed dog presented with right pelvic limb lameness and pain on posturing to defecate that began 1.5 years prior to presentation. Radiographs taken 8 months prior to presentation showed a small lytic lesion of the L6 vertebral body, and CBCs showed a persistently increased hematocrit (HCT) for at least 2 ...

Eight weeks of post‐exercise local heating does not improve cognition and plasma brain‐derived neurotrophic factor concentrations

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise and heat stress have been reported to independently provide benefits to brain health. We tested the hypothesis that 8 weeks of post‐exercise local heating, passive local heating only, or exercise training only improves cognitive performance compared to a control group.
