Pain management of a mandibular fracture in an alpaca (Vicugna pacos) via epidural catheter placement in the mandibular foramen (2019)
Journal Article
Stathopoulou, T., Seymour, C., McSloy, A., Adams, J., & Viscasillas, J. (2019). Pain management of a mandibular fracture in an alpaca (Vicugna pacos) via epidural catheter placement in the mandibular foramen. https://doi.org/10.1136/vetreccr-2019-000863

A nine-year-old female alpaca with a history of a recurrent tooth root abscess presented for further investigation of a swelling of the left mandible and possible tooth extraction. During the manipulation of the mandible in surgery, the mandibular bo...

Characterisation of Crandell-Rees Feline Kidney (CRFK) cells as mesenchymal in phenotype (2019)
Journal Article
Lawson, J. S., Syme, H. M., Wheeler-Jones, C. P. D., & Elliott, J. (2019). Characterisation of Crandell-Rees Feline Kidney (CRFK) cells as mesenchymal in phenotype. Research in Veterinary Science, 127, 99-102. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rvsc.2019.10.012

The Crandell-Rees Feline Kidney Cell (CRFK) is an immortalised cell line derived from the feline kidney that is utilised for the growth of certain vaccinal viruses. Confusion exists as to whether CRFK are epithelial or mesenchymal in phenotype. The a... Read More about Characterisation of Crandell-Rees Feline Kidney (CRFK) cells as mesenchymal in phenotype.

The Genetic Architecture of Bovine Telomere Length in Early Life and Association With Animal Fitness (2019)
Journal Article
Ilska-Warner, J. J., Psifidi, A., Seeker, L. A., Wilbourn, R. V., Underwood, S. L., Fairlie, J., …Banos, G. (2019). The Genetic Architecture of Bovine Telomere Length in Early Life and Association With Animal Fitness. Frontiers in Genetics, 10, https://doi.org/10.3389/fgene.2019.01048

Health and survival are key goals for selective breeding in farm animals. Progress, however, is often limited by the low heritability of these animal fitness traits in addition to measurement difficulties. In this respect, relevant early-life biomark...

Investigation into pathophysiology of naturally occurring palatal instability and intermittent dorsal displacement of the soft palate (DDSP) in racehorses: Thyro-hyoid muscles fatigue during exercise (2019)
Journal Article
Cercone, M., Olsen, E., Perkins, J. D. M., Cheetham, J., Mitchell, L. M., & Ducharme, N. G. (2019). Investigation into pathophysiology of naturally occurring palatal instability and intermittent dorsal displacement of the soft palate (DDSP) in racehorses: Thyro-hyoid muscles fatigue during exercise. PLoS ONE, 14, https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0224524

Exercise induced intermittent dorsal displacement of the soft palate (DDSP) is a common cause of airway obstruction and poor performance in racehorses. The definite etiology is still unclear, but through an experimental model, a role in the developme...

The Effect of Tree Width on Thoracolumbar and Limb Kinematics, Saddle Pressure Distribution, and Thoracolumbar Dimensions in Sports Horses in Trot and Canter (2019)
Journal Article
MacKechnie-Guire, R., MacKechnie-Guire, E., Fairfax, V., Fisher, D., Fisher, M., & Pfau, T. (2019). The Effect of Tree Width on Thoracolumbar and Limb Kinematics, Saddle Pressure Distribution, and Thoracolumbar Dimensions in Sports Horses in Trot and Canter. Animals, 9(842), https://doi.org/10.3390/ani9100842

This study evaluated the effect of saddle tree width on thoracolumbar and limb kinematics, saddle pressure distribution, and thoracolumbar epaxial musculature dimensions. Correctly fitted saddles were fitted by a Society of Master Saddler Qualified S...
