Physiological reactivity to spontaneously occurring seizure activity in dogs with epilepsy and their carers (2017)
Journal Article
Packer, R. M. A., Volk, H. A., & Fowkes, R. C. (2017). Physiological reactivity to spontaneously occurring seizure activity in dogs with epilepsy and their carers. Physiology and Behavior, 177, 27-33. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physbeh.2017.04.008

There is a complex bidirectional relationship between stress and epilepsy. Stressful stimuli and subsequent cortisol release act as a trigger for seizure activity in some individuals with epilepsy, and seizure activity itself may act as a stressor to...

Investigation of the association between serum protein concentrations and concurrent chronic kidney disease in hyperthyroid cats (2017)
Journal Article
Williams, T. L., Elliott, J., Syme, H. M., & Archer, J. (2017). Investigation of the association between serum protein concentrations and concurrent chronic kidney disease in hyperthyroid cats. Research in Veterinary Science, 115, 412-417. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rvsc.2017.07.023

Our objective was to identify if changes in serum protein concentrations occur in hyperthyroidism and to assess their association with the development of azotaemia following treatment. Initially non-azotaemic hyperthyroid cats and healthy older ca...

Computed tomographic morphometry of tympanic bulla shape and position in brachycephalic and mesaticephalic dog breeds (2017)
Journal Article
Mielke, B., Lam, R. W., & Ter Haar, G. (2017). Computed tomographic morphometry of tympanic bulla shape and position in brachycephalic and mesaticephalic dog breeds. https://doi.org/10.1111/vru.12529

Anatomic variations in skull morphology have been previously described for brachycephalic dogs; however there is little published information on interbreed variations in tympanic bulla morphology. This retrospective observational study aimed to (1) p... Read More about Computed tomographic morphometry of tympanic bulla shape and position in brachycephalic and mesaticephalic dog breeds.

Can malignant and inflammatory pleural effusions in dogs be distinguished using computed tomography (2017)
Journal Article
Watton, T. C., Lara-Garcia, A., & Lamb, C. R. (2017). Can malignant and inflammatory pleural effusions in dogs be distinguished using computed tomography. Epidemiology and Infection, 58(5), 535-541. https://doi.org/10.1111/vru.12534

Computed tomography (CT) is the primary imaging modality used to investigate human patients with suspected malignant or inflammatory pleural effusion, but there is a lack of information about the clinical use of this test in dogs. To identify CT sign... Read More about Can malignant and inflammatory pleural effusions in dogs be distinguished using computed tomography.

The Use of Reusable Learning Objects to Enhance the Delivery of Veterinary Education: A Literature Review (2017)
Journal Article
Chapman-Waterhouse, E., Silva-Fletcher, A. T., & Whittlestone, K. D. (2017). The Use of Reusable Learning Objects to Enhance the Delivery of Veterinary Education: A Literature Review. https://doi.org/10.4018/IJMBL.2017070103

The increased demand from learners in higher education to access resources flexibly has resulted in considerable development in the use of Reusable Learning Objects (RLO) via a blended learning format across the sector. This critical review sets out... Read More about The Use of Reusable Learning Objects to Enhance the Delivery of Veterinary Education: A Literature Review.

Imaging diagnosis-computed tomography of traction bronchiectasis secondary to pulmonary fibrosis in a Patterdale Terrier (2017)
Journal Article
Fitzgerald, E., Priestnall, S. L., & Lamb, C. R. (2017). Imaging diagnosis-computed tomography of traction bronchiectasis secondary to pulmonary fibrosis in a Patterdale Terrier. Veterinary Radiology and Ultrasound, 58(4), E42-E44. https://doi.org/10.1111/vru.12403

An 8-year-old, Patterdale terrier was referred for evaluation of tachypnoea, exercise intolerance, and weight loss. Computed tomographic images showed pneumomediastinum, diffuse pulmonary ground glass opacity, and marked dilatation of peripheral bron...
