Cannabinoid receptor-2 expression in canine multicentric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: An immunohistochemical, digital pathology and clinical analysis.

The cannabinoid 2 receptor (CB2R) is a crucial element of the endocannabinoid system (ECS), which is predominantly expressed on cells of the reticuloendothelial system. Alterations in CB2R expression have shown a prognostic role in various human neoplastic diseases and its expression has been studied in canine mast cell tumours (MCT). Canine diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common lymphoma in dogs and has a variable clinical behaviour.

GLP-1 therapy increases visceral adipose tissue metabolic activity: lessons from a randomized controlled trial in obstructive sleep apnea.

Objective: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogues are currently the most widely used pharmacotherapies for weight loss. Their primary mechanism of action is attributed to reduction in energy intake. Data from murine studies also support an additional impact of those agents on energy homeostasis through upregulation of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) metabolic activity, but this remains uncertain in humans.

Recording of suspected adverse drug reaction reporting in veterinary free-text clinical narratives.

Objectives: To use text mining approaches to identify instances of suspected adverse drug reactions recorded in first opinion veterinary free-text clinical narratives, and to evaluate whether these were also reported to either the Veterinary Medicines Directorate or the relevant Marketing Authorisation holder in order to derive an estimate of the suspected adverse drug reaction (sADR) minimum under-reporting rate. To characterise sADR reports and explore whether particular features are associated with report submission.

Materials And Methods: Two regular expressions were developed to identify mentions of "adverse drug reactions" and "side effects" in the free-text clinical narratives of electronic health records contained within the Small Animal Veterinary Surveillance Network database.

Epidemiology of canine cutaneous round cell tumours on the canary archipelago in Spain.

In this study we undertook a comprehensive analysis of a Pet Tumour Registry of the Canary Archipelago (PTR-CA) in Spain to investigate the epidemiology of canine cutaneous round cell tumours. From a database of 2526 tumours collected from 2003 to 2020, we conducted a longitudinal analysis of the main trends in diagnosis, age, multiplicity and anatomical distribution as well as a case-control study comparing these cases with the contemporaneous canine population of the Canary Archipelago to analyse breed distribution. In line with former studies, we found histiocytomas mostly affect young dogs (2, IQR 1-5) and mast cell tumours affect middle-to-old dogs (8, IQR 6-10) with grade 1 affecting at younger ages (6.
