Use of the oral sugar test in ponies when performed with or without prior fasting (2016)
Journal Article
Knowles, E. J., Harris, P. A., Elliott, J., & Menzies-Gow, N. J. (2016). Use of the oral sugar test in ponies when performed with or without prior fasting. Equine Veterinary Journal, 49, 519-524. https://doi.org/10.1111/evj.12607

Background
It is recommended that the Oral Sugar Test (OST) for insulin dysregulation (ID) is performed after an overnight fast but fasting is impractical in ponies kept solely at pasture. There are few data on OST repeatability and reliability in p... Read More about Use of the oral sugar test in ponies when performed with or without prior fasting.

The cytokine transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) has been widely implicated in the development and progression of renal fibrosis in chronic kidney disease (CKD) in humans and in experimental models. The aims of this study were to assess the as... Read More about Urinary active transforming growth factor ß in feline chronic kidney disease.

Chronic kidney disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in cats. Transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is a calcium-dependent enzyme proposed to mediate tubulointerstitial fibrosis in the kidney by cross-linking collagen fibrils. Postmortem kidney tiss...
