Investigation of in vitro susceptibility and resistance mechanisms in skin pathogens: perspectives for fluoroquinolone therapy in canine pyoderma (2022)
Journal Article
Azzariti, S., Bond, R., Loeffler, A., Zendri, F., Timofte, D., Chang, Y.-M., & Pelligand, L. (2022). Investigation of in vitro susceptibility and resistance mechanisms in skin pathogens: perspectives for fluoroquinolone therapy in canine pyoderma. Antibiotics, https://doi.org/10.3390/antibiotics11091204

Fluoroquinolones (FQ) are commonly used in dogs with bacterial skin infections. Their use as first choice, along with the increased incidence of FQ-resistance, represents a risk to animal and public health. Our study determined minimum inhibitory (M...

Nitric oxide synthase inhibition reveals differences in the nitric oxide pathway in previously laminitic ponies. (2022)
Journal Article
Finding, E., Elliott, J., Harris, P., & Menzies-Gow, N. (2022). Nitric oxide synthase inhibition reveals differences in the nitric oxide pathway in previously laminitic ponies. Research in Veterinary Science, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rvsc.2022.05.012

Previously laminitic (PL) ponies are reported to have higher blood pressure than non laminitic (NL) ponies. This relative hypertension may be related to endothelial cell dysfunction, similar to humans with metabolic syndrome. To investigate the relat...

Ionized hypercalcemia in cats with azotemic chronic kidney disease (2012-2018) (2022)
Journal Article
van den Broek, D., Geddes, R., Lotter, N., Chang, Y., Elliott, J., & Jepson, R. (2022). Ionized hypercalcemia in cats with azotemic chronic kidney disease (2012-2018). Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, https://doi.org/10.1111/jvim.16430

Background Hypercalcemia is associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in cats, but studies assessing the physiologically relevant ionized calcium fraction are lacking. Objectives To describe the prevalence and incidence rate of ionized hypercalcem... Read More about Ionized hypercalcemia in cats with azotemic chronic kidney disease (2012-2018).

The importance of fine-scale predictors of wild boar presence in an isolated population (2022)
Journal Article
Bacigalupo, S. A., Chang, Y.-M., Dixon, L. K., Gubbins, S., Kucharski, A. J., & Drewe, J. A. (2022). The importance of fine-scale predictors of wild boar presence in an isolated population. Methods in Ecology and Evolution, https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.9031

1. Predicting the likelihood of wildlife presence at potential wildlife-livestock interfaces is challenging. These interfaces are usually relatively small geographical areas where landscapes show large variation over small distances. Models of wildli...

Evidence of altered fatty acid metabolism in dogs with naturally occurring valvular heart disease and congestive heart failure (2022)
Journal Article
Wilshaw, J., Boswood, A., Chang, Y., Sands, C., Camuzeaux, S., Lewis, M., Xia, D., & Connolly, D. (2022). Evidence of altered fatty acid metabolism in dogs with naturally occurring valvular heart disease and congestive heart failure. Metabolomics, 18(6), https://doi.org/10.1007/s11306-022-01887-7

Introduction Myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is the most common cardiac condition in adult dogs. The disease progresses over several years and affected dogs may develop congestive heart failure (HF). Research has shown that myocardial metaboli...

Spatial links between subchondral bone architectural features and cartilage degeneration in osteoarthritic joints (2022)
Journal Article
Ajami, S., Javaheri, B., Chang, Y., Maruthainar, N., Khan, T., Donaldson, J., Pitsillides, A., & Liu, C. (2022). Spatial links between subchondral bone architectural features and cartilage degeneration in osteoarthritic joints. Scientific Reports, 12(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-10600-6

Early diagnosis of osteoarthritis (OA), before the onset of irreversible changes is crucial for understanding the disease process and identifying potential disease-modifying treatments from the earliest stage. OA is a whole joint disease and affects... Read More about Spatial links between subchondral bone architectural features and cartilage degeneration in osteoarthritic joints.
