Article Synopsis
- High extracellular fluid volume (ECV) in kidney transplant recipients is linked to increased mortality and decreased kidney function (mGFR).
- A study of 2057 kidney transplant recipients found that factors like gender, age, diabetes, and heart issues were associated with higher ECV.
- Elevated ECV three months post-transplant predicts reduced kidney function at 12 months but does not correlate with loss of the transplant itself.
Article Synopsis
- Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathies (HSAN) are genetic disorders affecting the peripheral nervous system, with at least 16 known genetic loci in humans, while similar conditions like acral mutilation syndrome (AMS) have been noted in dogs, especially impacting their quality of life.
- A study focused on a purebred German Spitz showed early-onset HSAN/AMS, leading to severe self-mutilation due to loss of pain sensation, and whole-genome sequencing identified a variant in the RETREG1 gene as the likely cause.
- This variant impairs neuron function and confirms its role in the recessive form of HSAN/AMS for the breed, highlighting
Clinical and pathological characteristics of a dog with scleromyxoedema.
J Small Anim Pract
December 2024
An 8-year-old male cross-Labrador retriever was presented for a progressive appearance of folds all over the body of the dog. Scleromyxoedema was diagnosed based on clinical signs and histopathological features. Clinical signs were characterised by a papular and vesicular eruption and severe skin thickening causing exuberant folds along with concurrent severe osteoarthritis of the coxofemoral joints.
