Journal Article
Bauer, A., Hadji Rasouliha, S., Brunner, M. T., Jagannathan, V., Bucher, I., Bannoehr, J., …Leeb, T. (2018). A second KRT71 allele in curly coated dogs. Animal Genetics, 50(1), 97-100. https://doi.org/10.1111/age.12743

Major characteristics of coat variation in dogs can be explained by variants in only a few genes. Until now, only one missense variant in the KRT71 gene, p.Arg151Trp, has been reported to cause curly hair in dogs. However, this variant does not expla...

Holter monitoring demonstrates that ventricular arrhythmias are common in cats with decompensated and compensated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (2018)
Journal Article
Bartoszuk, U., Keene, B. W., Toaldo, M. B., Pereira, N., Summerfield, N., Novo Matos, J., & Glaus, T. M. (2018). Holter monitoring demonstrates that ventricular arrhythmias are common in cats with decompensated and compensated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2018.11.005

Arrhythmias can complicate cardiac disease in cats and are a potential cause of sudden death. The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence and nature of cardiac arrhythmias, and the potential correlation between plasma serum troponin I (cTnI) c...

Anatomy Teaching, a “Model” Answer? Evaluating “Geoff”, a Painted Anatomical Horse, as a Tool for Enhancing Topographical Anatomy Learning (2018)
Journal Article
Bietzk, E., Weller, R., Simons, V., & Channon, S. B. (2018). Anatomy Teaching, a “Model” Answer? Evaluating “Geoff”, a Painted Anatomical Horse, as a Tool for Enhancing Topographical Anatomy Learning. Anatomical Sciences Education, https://doi.org/10.1002/ase.1823

Development of new methods for anatomy teaching is increasingly important as we look to modernize and supplement traditional teaching methods. In this study, a life‐sized equine model, “Geoff” was painted with surface and deep anatomical structures w... Read More about Anatomy Teaching, a “Model” Answer?
