Article Synopsis
  • A study analyzed medical records of 1,592 military working dogs (MWDs) to assess the prevalence and types of traumatic dentoalveolar injury (TDI), finding a 43.6% overall prevalence rate.
  • The most common injury was enamel-dentin-pulp fractures, primarily affecting maxillary teeth, with Specialized Search Dogs (SSDs) experiencing the most trauma.
  • The findings highlighted significant factors like tooth type and age that influence the severity of injuries, indicating a higher risk for MWDs compared to pet dogs and stressing the need for better dental care to ensure operational readiness.

Background: There are no reports describing the long-term outcome of sport horses undergoing unilateral mandibular condylectomy with meniscectomy (UMC) for treatment for severe temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disease (TMD). Whether horses undergoing UMC require a specialized diet, can return to riding with a bit, or return to intended function after surgery is unknown.

Objective: To determine the long-term outcome of horses undergoing UMC for treatment of severe TMD.

Background: The significance of androgen receptor (AR) expression in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is unclear, and published studies so far have been inconclusive.

Methods: A tissue microarray was constructed using tissue obtained from 119 patients with primary TNBC and stained for AR expression. Other tissue types obtained included recurrent TNBC, normal breast tissue, adjacent ductal carcinoma-in situ (DCIS), lymph node (LN) and distant metastases.

Optimal treatment of methicillin-resistant staphylococcal periprosthetic infections is predicated on rapid and reliable detection of these organisms. Culture has served as the gold standard for identification of these organisms despite shortcomings with sensitivity and processing time. The objective of the current study was to investigate a polymerase chain reaction assay aimed at rapid genomic detection of methicillin-resistance in staphylococci (mecA gene).
