Hyperammonemia and Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome Predicts Presence of Hepatic Encephalopathy in Dogs with Congenital Portosystemic Shunts (2014)
Journal Article
Tivers, M. S., Handel, I., Gow, A. G., Lipscomb, V. J., Jalan, R., & Mellanby, R. (2014). Hyperammonemia and Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome Predicts Presence of Hepatic Encephalopathy in Dogs with Congenital Portosystemic Shunts. PLoS ONE, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0082303

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with liver disease. The pathogenesis of he is incompletely understood although ammonia and inflammatory cytokines have been implicated as key mediators. To facil...

Histopathological findings in the livers of cats with a congenital portosystemic shunt before and after surgical attenuation (2013)
Journal Article
Swinbourne, F., Smith, K. C., Lipscomb, V. J., & Tivers, M. S. (2013). Histopathological findings in the livers of cats with a congenital portosystemic shunt before and after surgical attenuation. Veterinary Record, 172(14), 362. https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.100812

Histopathological changes are reported in the livers of cats with congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSS) before and after surgical attenuation. Medical records, portovenograms and liver biopsies from cats treated surgically for CPSS were reviewed. Bi...

Objective-To determine whether hepatic portal vascularity assessed via intraoperative mesenteric portovenography (IMP) is related to outcome in cats undergoing surgical attenuation of a congenital portosystemic shunt (CPSS). Design-Retrospective case... Read More about Association of mesenteric portovenographic findings with outcome in cats receiving surgical treatment for single congenital portosystemic shunts.
