Journal Article
Mackechnie-Guire, R., Mackechnie-Guire, E., Bush, R., Fisher, D., Fisher, M., & Weller, R. (2018). Local back pressure caused by a training roller during lunging with and without a Pessoa training aid. Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 67, 112-117. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jevs.2018.03.018

Ground schooling (especially lunging) is routinely performed in the rehabilitation and training of horses. Training rollers are commonly used to provide attachment for training aids. The objective of the study was to objectively measure pressures ben... Read More about Local back pressure caused by a training roller during lunging with and without a Pessoa training aid.

What has changed in canine pyoderma? A narrative review (2018)
Journal Article
Loeffler, A., & Lloyd, D. H. (2018). What has changed in canine pyoderma? A narrative review. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2018.04.002

Canine pyoderma is a common presentation in small animal practice and frequently leads to prescription of systemic antimicrobial agents. A good foundation of knowledge on pyoderma was established during the 1970s and 1980s, when treatment of infectio... Read More about What has changed in canine pyoderma? A narrative review.

Inter-observer variability for cardiac ultrasound measurements in cats repeated at different time points in early adult life (2018)
Journal Article
Van Hoek, I., Payne, J. R., Feugier, A., & Connolly, D. J. (2018). Inter-observer variability for cardiac ultrasound measurements in cats repeated at different time points in early adult life. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vas.2018.03.002

Abstract A high degree of accuracy is required when using echocardiography to diagnose hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in cats, as variation in measurements of 0.5 mm may affect classification of individuals as ‘abnormal’. This study in adult cats... Read More about Inter-observer variability for cardiac ultrasound measurements in cats repeated at different time points in early adult life.

Pericardial effusion associated with systemic inflammatory disease in seven dogs (January 2006 – January 2012) (2018)
Journal Article

Pericardial effusion (PE) is reported in dogs as a consequence of neoplasia, primary cardiac disease or as an idiopathic condition. We describe seven dogs with systemic inflammatory disease, PE without tamponade and increased cardiac troponin I conce...

Objectives To determine if dogs with acute polyradiculoneuritis have lower serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 concentration compared to a control group of dogs with idiopathic epilepsy. Materials and Methods Retrospective case–control study of 21 dogs... Read More about 25-Hydroxy vitamin D3 serum concentration in dogs with acute polyradiculoneuritis compared to matched controls.

Clinical presentation and magnetic resonance imaging findings in 11 dogs with eosinophilic meningoencephalitis of unknown aetiology (2018)
Journal Article

Eleven dogs were included with a median age of 22·0 months (range 7·6 to 92·0 months). Nine breeds were represented. Neurological abnormalities included obtundation (n=10), menace response deficits (n=9), proprioceptive deficits (n=7), ataxia (n=7) a...
