In urine a decrease of Cr levels and an increase of glucose excretion were noted. Those changes appear to represent a relatively mild and transient damage of renal cells and do not reflect the occasionally serious morphological changes observed after shock wave exposure....
The urine should be examined for blood, protein, cells, and casts as markers of renal disease, and should be cultured if urinalysis is abnormal. Unless the cause is obvious, measurements are usually made of vanillylmandelic acid in the urine to exclude either a phaeochromocytoma or hypertension...
The gas causes the same symptoms in dogs and cats as in their owners. However, carbon monoxide is lighter than air, so pets that live at human knee level may not show symptoms as quickly as their owners. Birds are particularly susceptible and like Gumby, may be the first to show signs....
MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) is an emerging technology that can accurately and transiently permeabilize the blood-brain barrier (BBB) for targeted drug delivery to the central nervous system. We conducted a single-arm, first-in-human trial to investigate the safety and feasibility of MR...
Signs of poisoning occur after a latent period of 12 h to several days and may include: bruising easily with occasional nose or gum bleeds; blood in stools or urine; excessive bleeding from minor cuts or abrasions; labored breathing; pale mouth and cold gums; anorexia; and general weakness....

In this way, our dog laboratory allows us to be a proactive and timely partner in your dog's health and care. Understanding Canine Blood Tests Understanding dog blood tests is second nature to us. However, we understand that the same might not be said for you. This is why we always ...
Nevertheless, parvoviruses can be detected in faeces forup to 6 weeks after recovery, depending on the sensitivity of the diagnostic method used [10]. Cats experimentally infected with FPV shed the virus in both urine and faeces up to day 41–42 post-infection with parvovirus persisting in ...
J. Catharine Scott-Moncrieff, in Canine and Feline Endocrinology (Fourth Edition), 2015 Plasma Aldosterone Concentration Diagnosis of hypoadrenocorticism has historically relied on cortisol concentration as an indicator of adrenal reserve, whereas plasma aldosterone concentrations (PACs) are more rarely mea...
Elevated δ‐ALA in the blood and urine, as well as elevated protoporphyrin in the blood, support the diagnosis of lead poisoning. Basophilic stippling on a peripheral blood smear also supports this diagnosis, but it is a rare and nonspecific finding. View chapterExplore book Exogenous Acquired ...
