Is there a link between bacteriuria and a reversible encephalopathy in dogs and cats? (2020)
Journal Article
Crawford, A. (2020). Is there a link between bacteriuria and a reversible encephalopathy in dogs and cats?. Journal of Small Animal Practice, https://doi.org/10.1111/jsap.13178

Bacteriuria has been associated with abnormal neurological status in humans, particularly the geriatric population. In this report, we review 11 cases (7 dogs and 4 cats) that support an association between bacteriuria and abnormal neurological statu...

Single-transcript multiplex in situ hybridisation reveals unique patterns of dystrophin isoform expression in the developing mammalian embryo (2020)
Journal Article
Hildyard, J. C. W., Crawford, A. H., Rawson, F., Riddell, D. O., Harron, R. C. M., & Piercy, R. J. (2020). Single-transcript multiplex in situ hybridisation reveals unique patterns of dystrophin isoform expression in the developing mammalian embryo. Wellcome Open Research, 5, 76. https://doi.org/10.12688/wellcomeopenres.15762.2

Background: The dystrophin gene has multiple isoforms: full-length dystrophin (dp427) is principally known for its expression in skeletal and cardiac muscle, but is also expressed in the brain, and several internal promoters give rise to shorter, N-t...

Clinicopathologic Features and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings in 24 Cats With Histopathologically Confirmed Neurologic Feline Infectious Peritonitis (2017)
Journal Article
Crawford, A. H., Stoll, A. L., Sanchez-Masian, D., Shea, A., Michaels, J., Fraser, A. R., & Beltran, E. (2017). Clinicopathologic Features and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings in 24 Cats With Histopathologically Confirmed Neurologic Feline Infectious Peritonitis. Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 31(5), 1477-1486. https://doi.org/10.1111/jvim.14791

Background: Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is the most common infectious central nervous system (CNS) disease in the cat and is invariably fatal. Improved means of antemortem diagnosis is required to facilitate clinical decision making. Informat...

MRI and clinical resolution of a suspected intracranial toxoplasma granuloma with medical treatment in a domestic short hair cat (2017)
Journal Article
Crawford, A. H., Drees, R., & Beltran, E. (2017). MRI and clinical resolution of a suspected intracranial toxoplasma granuloma with medical treatment in a domestic short hair cat. https://doi.org/10.1136/vetreccr-2017-000480

A two-year-old cat was presented with a left paradoxical vestibular syndrome. MRI of the brain revealed an extra-axial homogenously contrast enhancing mass in the region of the left caudal cerebellar peduncle. Toxoplasma serology was consistent with...

Clinical presentation and outcome of dogs treated medically or surgically for thoracolumbar intervertebral disc protrusion (2017)
Journal Article
Crawford, A. H., & De Decker, S. (2017). Clinical presentation and outcome of dogs treated medically or surgically for thoracolumbar intervertebral disc protrusion. Veterinary Record, 180(23), https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.103871

To date, few studies have investigated the clinical characteristics of thoracolumbar intervertebral disc protrusion (IVDP). The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the presentation and outcome of dogs receiving medical or surgical treatme...

Pre-Existing Mature Oligodendrocytes Do Not Contribute to Remyelination following Toxin-Induced Spinal Cord Demyelination (2017)
Journal Article
Crawford, A. H., Tripathi, R. B., Foerster, S., McKenzie, I., Kougioumtzidou, E., Grist, M., …Franklin, R. J. (2017). Pre-Existing Mature Oligodendrocytes Do Not Contribute to Remyelination following Toxin-Induced Spinal Cord Demyelination. American Journal of Pathology, 186(3), 511-6. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ajpath.2015.11.005

Remyelination is the regenerative response to demyelination. Although the oligodendrocyte progenitor is established as the major source of remyelinating cells, there is no conclusive evidence on whether mature, differentiated oligodendrocytes can als...
