- Bexagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, shows potential as a treatment for diabetes mellitus (DM) in cats, reducing their need for insulin.
- In a study involving 84 cats, 84% experienced significant improvements in hyperglycemia and clinical symptoms after 56 days of daily administration.
- While many cats benefited from the treatment, some faced serious side effects, including diabetic ketoacidosis, highlighting the need for careful monitoring.
Mosquito Larval Abundance in Connected and Isolated Pools Beside a Stormwater Management Pond.
J Am Mosq Control Assoc
September 2021
Twelve experimental pools (30 cm width × 30 cm depth) around a large stormwater management pond (SWMP) were used to test the hypothesis that small puddles of water similar to animal hoofprints or other irregularities support more abundant and diverse mosquito populations due to having fewer insect predators. Six of the 12 pools were connected to the SWMP by a deep channel (7 cm wide × 10 cm depth × 50 cm length). Mosquito larvae and potential predators were sampled weekly over 16 wk in the summer.

Methods: A randomized controlled clinical study in 2 phases involving 123 dogs with cytologically diagnosed MCT. Phase 1 compared 81 TT-treated dogs with 42 control dogs; phase 2 allowed TT treatment of control dogs and retreatment of dogs that failed to achieve tumor resolution after TT treatment in phase 1.
