Background: Heart failure (HF) has been associated with changes in inflammatory and oxidative-stress biomarkers. This study aimed to evaluate the changes of a panel of inflammatory and oxidative stress biomarker in dogs with different stages of HF and its relation with the severity of the disease...
In dogs with degenerative valvular disease, the vast majority of heart enlargement happens within the year before the dogs develop heart failure. MANAGEMENT TIPS Studies in people show that patients treated with a team approach do better and that patients treated by a specialist only do less well...
Renal denervation (RDN) improved survival in some experimental heart failure (HF) models. It is not known whether these favorable effects are indirect, explainable by a decrease in vascular afterload, or diminished neurohumoral response in the kidneys, or whether RDN procedure per se has direct ...
Dogs with class I HW infections are asymptomatic or have only occasional episodes of coughing. Dogs with class II infections have cough or mild exercise intolerance. Dogs with class III infections have severe symptoms such as overt signs of congestive heart failure, syncope, and severe exercise int...

Jami Trombley3 and Steven J. Maeder1 Abstract Background: The current studies compared ProHeart® 12, Heartgard® Plus and Interceptor® Plus for preventive efficacy against JYD-34, a macrocyclic lactone (ML)-resistant strain of Dirofilaria immitis in dogs. ...
This review aims to provide an overview of cardiac metabolism in heart failure at its three most important stages: [1] substrate utilisation, [2] ATP generation, and [3] ATP transport and stores. The role of mitochondrial function in the development of heart failure, the importance of transcri...
After initial strategies targeting inotropism and congestion, the neurohormonal interpretative model of heart failure (HF) pathophysiology has set the basi
