The objective of this study was to report ECG intervals, amplitudes, and frequency of ECG abnormalities in clinically healthy Borzoi.Methods: 98 clinically healthy Borzoi were prospectively recruited and underwent echocardiogram, ECG, and cardiac troponin I testing between October 2020 and December 2022. Standard ECG measurements were obtained. Early repolarization notches and slurs were recorded.Results: Of 82 Borzoi with a structurally normal echocardiogram, ventricular arrhythmias were documented in 8 (10%) dogs, all of which had normal cardiac troponin I concentrations. Median P wave duration was 55 milliseconds (range, 45 to 70 milliseconds). Median PR interval was 125 milliseconds (range, 80 to 175 milliseconds). Thirty-one (38%) Borzoi had first-degree atrioventricular block (PR interval > 130 milliseconds). Median QRS duration was 65 milliseconds (range, 48 to 90 milliseconds). Median QT interval was 235 milliseconds (range, 185 to 275 milliseconds). Twenty-nine (35%) and 15 (18%) of 82 Borzoi had QT intervals > 240 or > 250 milliseconds, respectively. Sixty-seven of 82 (82%) Borzoi had early repolarization notches or slurs. Seventeen of 82 (21%) Borzoi had an abnormality of the ST segment, most commonly convexity/doming. Convexity of the ST segment was intermittent (n = 9) or persistent (4).Conclusions: Ventricular arrhythmias, early repolarization, prolonged QT intervals, and ST segment abnormalities are not infrequent in clinically healthy Borzoi. P, PR, and QRS durations are commonly prolonged compared to general canine reference intervals.Clinical relevance: Future study into heritable channelopathies in Borzoi is warranted given the frequency of ventricular arrhythmias, repolarization abnormalities, and sudden death in the breed. Breed-specific ECG reference intervals are needed.","PeriodicalId":14658,"journal":{"name":"Javma-journal of The American Veterinary Medical Association","volume":" ","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141859809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Forty control and 38 azotemic dogs were enrolled. Twenty microliters of LF per eye was collected with microcapillary tubes, and 3 mL of blood was drawn. Bland-Altman plot and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were used to evaluate the agreement between LF and SER.Results: There was good agreement between LF and SER levels of urea nitrogen in the control group (Bland-Altman plot mean bias of -0.8108 ± 2.407 mg/dL; ICC of 0.874 [95% CI, 0.773 to 0.934]) and the azotemic group (Bland-Altman plot mean bias of -9.681 ± 23.89 mg/dL; ICC of 0.82 [95% CI, 0.658 to 0.906]). There was poor agreement between LF and SER concentrations for creatinine in the control and azotemic groups, with only 26 dogs with creatinine detectable in LF.Conclusions: Lacrimal fluid and SER concentrations of urea nitrogen showed good agreement in both the control and azotemic groups, whereas poor agreement was found for creatinine in both groups.Clinical relevance: Measurement of urea nitrogen in LF may provide an alternative to blood for diagnosing uremia.

Cats were randomly assigned to 3 groups of 16 patients each: QLB-LV group (0.3 mL/kg/side), QLB-HV group (0.5 mL/kg/side), and control group (no QLB). Bilateral, in-plane, US-guided QLB was performed with lateral approach at the L2 transverse process with bupivacaine 0.2%.

Recurrence of an invasive abdominal lipoma occurred in case 1 at the exit site of a passive drain. The recurrence was treated unsuccessfully with injectable cisplatin, and a second revision surgery with the use of an active drain resulted in resolution. In case 2, complete resection of an encapsulated lipoma of the lateral prepuce was successful with no recurrence. In case 3, incomplete resection of a tarsal lipoma resulted in a sound horse, with no further growth. Histopathologic analysis revealed that all masses were composed of well-differentiated adipocytes with no evidence of malignancy.Clinical relevance: Subcutaneous lipomas are relatively rare and affect horses primarily ≤ 2 years of age. They are benign, although their presence can be deleterious due to invasion of local structures or the impact on normal locomotion. The margins of invasive tumors are difficult to identify due to their integration with normal tissue. Incomplete removal may allow for mass recurrence. Active suctions drains are beneficial if dead space is a concern.","PeriodicalId":14658,"journal":{"name":"Javma-journal of The American Veterinary Medical Association","volume":" ","pages":"1533-1537"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141599822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The technique aims to provide a minimally invasive method for the removal of these cysts.Animals: 2 clinical case images from the Washington State University Teaching Hospital were used in the video. In a third horse euthanized for reasons unrelated to the study, the procedure was simulated after the head was frozen and transected transversally.Methods: Files from 2 horses were reviewed, and the relevant parts were selected. The horse head was set on a stand, and a simulated cyst was implanted under the mucosa, made of the fingertip from a glove filled with carboxymethyl cellulose gel, and sutured. The procedure was performed by one of the authors (CAR) and recorded. A bronchoesophageal grasping forceps and cautery snare were used to simulate a clinical situation in dorsal recumbency.Results: The cyst was successfully removed as in the real procedure, and the demonstration was recorded for educational use. The review of the videos shows that the simulated procedure is also achievable in a real clinical environment.Clinical relevance: This technique provides a minimally invasive method for the removal of subepiglottic cysts in horses.
