Plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine, symmetric dimethylarginine, L-arginine, and nitrite/nitrate concentrations in cats with chronic kidney disease and hypertension
Journal Article
Jepson, R. E., Syme, H. M., Vallance, C., & Elliott, J. Plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine, symmetric dimethylarginine, L-arginine, and nitrite/nitrate concentrations in cats with chronic kidney disease and hypertension. Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 22(2), 317-324. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1939-1676.2008.0075.x

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypertension have been associated with decreased bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO) and endothelial dysfunction. Increased concentrations of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) inhibitor asymmet...

Objective-To evaluate the roles of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), thromboxane A(2) (TxA(2) and platelet-activating factor (PAF) in endotoxin-induced digital hypoperfusion in horses. Animals-6 healthy adult Thoroughbreds. Procedures-Horses were treated w... Read More about Roles of thromboxane A2 and 5-hydroxytryptamine in endotoxin-induced digital vasoconstriction in horses.

Incidence of and mortality from kidney disease in over 600,000 insured Swedish dogs
Journal Article
Pelander, L., Ljungvall, I., Egenvall, A., Syme, H. M., Elliott, J., & Haggstrom, J. (in press). Incidence of and mortality from kidney disease in over 600,000 insured Swedish dogs. Veterinary Record, 176(25), 656. https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.103059

Kidney disease is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in dogs. Knowledge about the epidemiology of kidney disease in the dog population is valuable and large-scale epidemiological studies are needed. The aim of the present study was to use...

Subclinical hyperthyroidism in cats: A spontaneous model of subclinical toxic nodular goiter in humans?
Journal Article
Wakeling, J., Smith, K. C., Scase, T., Kirkby, R., Elliott, J., & Syme, H. M. Subclinical hyperthyroidism in cats: A spontaneous model of subclinical toxic nodular goiter in humans?. https://doi.org/10.1089/thy.2007.0225

Introduction and Objectives: Hyperthyroidism in cats, caused by nodular hyperplasia or adenomas, is clinically and histologically similar to toxic nodular goiter in humans. Subclinical hyperthyroidism in humans is defined as low thyrotropin (TSH) in... Read More about Subclinical hyperthyroidism in cats: A spontaneous model of subclinical toxic nodular goiter in humans?.
