Background: The purpose of this study is to evaluate differences in transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) in dogs suffering from cervical myelopathy (CM) and thoracolumbar myelopathy (TLM) anaesthetised with isoflurane (ISO).
Methods: This prospective cohort study included ASA II-status dogs diagnosed with either CM or TLM, anaesthetised for diagnostic or surgical purposes between September 2021 and July 2023. Patients followed the same anaesthetic protocol, and maximum Pdi was recorded at 10 (Pdimax10), 20 (Pdimax20), and 30 (Pdimax30) minutes using balloon catheters placed in the stomach (Pgast) and in the mid-third of the oesophagus (Poes).
Results: A total of 50 dogs were included: 25 in the CM group and 25 in the TLM group. In the TLM group, Pdimax10 was 9.4 mmHg ± 6.1, and in the CM group, it was 7.2 mmHg ± 4.6 ( = 0.167). Pdimax20 was 10.2 mmHg ± 5.8 in the TLM group and 8 mmHg ± 5.1 in the CM group ( = 0.155). Pdimax30 was 9.2 mmHg ± 5.5 in the TLM group and 8.1 mmHg ± 5.5 in the CM group ( = 0.479).
Conclusions: The findings suggest that diaphragmatic contractility is similar in dogs with CM and TLM under ISO anaesthesia.

Background: Anabolic resistance accelerates muscle loss in aging and obesity, thus predisposing to sarcopenic obesity.
Methods: In this retrospective analysis of a randomized clinical trial, we examined baseline predictors of the adaptive response to three months of home-based resistance exercise, daily physical activity, and protein-based, multi-ingredient supplementation (MIS) in a cohort of free-living, older males ( = 32).
Results: Multiple linear regression analyses revealed that obesity and a Global Risk Index for metabolic syndrome (MetS) were the strongest predictors of Δ% gains in lean mass (TLM and ASM), LM/body fat ratios (TLM/%BF, ASM/FM, and ASM/%BF), and allometric LM (ASMI, TLM/BW, TLM/BMI, ASM/BW), with moderately strong, negative correlations to the adaptive response to polytherapy r = -0.
