Bowen, J., García, E., Darder, P., Argüelles, J., & Fatjó, J. (2020). The effects of the Spanish COVID-19 lockdown on people, their pets and the human-animal bond

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the Spanish confinement for the control of the COVID-19 pandemic on the behavior of pet cats and dogs, and the support that pets provided to their owners. We found that the quality of life o... Read More about The effects of the Spanish COVID-19 lockdown on people, their pets and the human-animal bond.

Full‐field strain of regenerated bone tissue in a femoral fracture model (2020)
Journal Article
KARALI, A., KAO, A., MEESON, R., ROLDO, M., BLUNN, G., & TOZZI, G. (2020). Full‐field strain of regenerated bone tissue in a femoral fracture model. Journal of Microscopy, https://doi.org/10.1111/jmi.12937

The mechanical behavior of regenerated bone tissue during fracture healing is key in determining its ability to withstand physiological loads. However, the strain distribution in the newly formed tissue and how this influences the way a fracture heal...

Hypertension: Why Is It Critical? (2020)
Journal Article
Geddes, R. F. (2020). Hypertension: Why Is It Critical?. Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 50, 1037-1052

Hypertension is a common problem, particularly in older cats. Hypertension secondary to a concurrent disease is the most common form of hypertension in cats, particularly in association with chronic kidney disease or hyperthyroidism. However, idiopat...
