Article Synopsis
- An eight-year-old neutered crossbreed dog presented with severe skin lesions and signs of systemic illness, leading to a thorough hematologic assessment.
- The tests revealed nonregenerative anemia, thrombocytopenia, and a high population of neoplastic mononuclear cells, ultimately diagnosing the dog with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
- Despite findings of AML affecting multiple organs, the owner opted for euthanasia, marking this case as the first documented instance of ulcerative skin lesions linked to AML in a dog.
Objectives: The aims of this study were to describe the clinical presentation, tumour characteristics, responses to chemotherapy protocols and toxicity in a cohort of cats with lymphoma up to 18 months of age. In addition, the probability of long-term (>2 years) survival was explored.
Materials And Methods: The medical records of client-owned cats aged up to 18 months diagnosed with lymphoma between 2008 and 2022 at five UK-based veterinary referral hospitals were reviewed.
Article Synopsis
- Snakes are popular pets and often carry a Gram-negative bacterium in their cloacal microbiota, which can cause severe infections and is frequently antibiotic-resistant.
- A study analyzed 419 cloacal swabs from various snake families, finding a 59.9% prevalence of the bacteria, with 35.5% of strains being multidrug resistant (MDR).
- Factors like snake age, farm size, type of feeding (thawed or home-raised vs. commercial), and cleaning frequency correlated with higher MDR prevalence, while snake reproductive status did not show a significant impact.
There is a significant difference in plasma levels of the free fatty acids (FFA) in habitual coffee drinkers compared with a control group of non-coffee and decaffeinated-coffee drinkers. A significant difference in FFA levels between males and females was found under the same conditions of coffee consumption, in non-coffee drinkers and in decaffeinated-coffee drinkers.

In this report the biological value of new protein concentrates has been estimated. In growing rats the protein efficiency ratio, together with the load of liver and serum cholesterol, lipids and proteins, has been determined. It has been concluded that all the protein samples have a nutritional value at least like the older products made with proteins of milk.
