Dietary management of normoalbuminaemic canine chronic enteropathies

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Dietary management represents the cornerstone of treatment for chronic enteropathy in dogs, with approximately 50% of cases in referral practice responding to dietary intervention alone. Success rates improve significantly when multiple systematic diet trials are implemented.

HUS and atypical HUS [PDF]

, 2017
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a thrombotic microangiopathy characterized by intravascular hemolysis, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney failure. HUS is usually categorized as typical, caused by Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) infection,

Impact of Expanded Hemodialysis on Inflammation and Iron Metabolism in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients

Seminars in Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microinflammation and functional iron deficiency are major contributors to anemia and treatment burden in maintenance hemodialysis (HD). Medium cutoff (MCO) membranes enhance the removal of middle‐ and large‐sized solutes implicated in these pathways, yet real‐world data using routinely measured inflammatory and iron‐related markers are scarce.

Uremic Toxins and Clinical Outcomes: The Impact of Kidney Transplantation

Toxins, 2018
Non-transplanted and transplanted patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) differ in terms of mortality and the risk of clinical events. This difference is probably due to the difference of both traditional and non-traditional risk factors.

Two patients with history of STEC-HUS, posttransplant recurrence and complement gene mutations [PDF]

, 2013
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a disease of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia and acute renal failure. About 90% of cases are secondary to infections by Escherichia coli strains producing Shiga-like toxins (STEC-HUS), while 10% are ...

A Multi‐Institutional Retrospective Study of 21 Dogs Having Undergone Hypofractionated Radiotherapy for Adrenal Tumours (2017–2024)

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Radiation therapy (RT) has emerged as a promising non‐surgical approach for treating canine adrenal tumours. This multi‐institutional, retrospective study describes clinical outcomes for 21 dogs having been prescribed a course of hypofractionated image‐guided intensity‐modulated RT (IMRT) entailing delivery of 25–35 Gy total in 5 fractions ...

Characterizing RecA-Independent Induction of Shiga toxin2-encoding Phages by EDTA Treatment [PDF]

, 2013
The bacteriophage life cycle has an important role in Shiga toxin (Stx) expression. The induction of Shiga toxin-encoding phages (Stx phages) increases toxin production as a result of replication of the phage genome, and phage lysis of the host cell also
