This is probably due to the interest in dogs from a veterinary point of view. This context is important as it leads to a word of caution regarding the data that we do have on the dog lung compared to other species. Most of the data described for other mammals in this chapter, ...
Nevertheless, given the inherent issues of dissection, the degree of concordance provides substantial evidence that the software method represents an appropriate non-invasive means to determine tissue mass. The data presented is relevant to current and future developments in the treatment of lung disease...
1. A maintained inflation of the lungs caused a reflex reduction in total systemic vascular resistance in anaesthetized dogs under conditions in which the systemic circulation was perfused at constant blood flow and the arterial blood PO2 and PCO2 were maintained constant. 2. The fall in systemic...
We don't see a lot of primary lung cancer in dogs. It usually starts somewhere else and moves to the lungs. The poor coat is probably because the body is fighting trying to deal with all of the disease processes that are going on. A fungal infection is definitely a possibility. ...
visualization of cellular particle uptake using confocal microscopy struggles to distinguish between internalized particles and those merely adhering to the cell surface. A promising tool to overcome these issues is Raman spectroscopy, which is more often associated with determination of molecular structure ...
COPD is often accompanied by malnutrition, muscle wasting, and renal issues, which further compromise acid–base regulation. Diuretic use in COPD management can also impact renal function and acid–base balance. Effective management of chronic hypercapnia in COPD requires a comprehensive approach, includ...
Hence, issues commonly associated with intra-pulmonary drug administration in ARDS, such as heterogeneity of distribution in the injured lung [87] and induction of transient hypoxemia [88] can be avoided. Moreover, i.v. administration will result in distribution to other affected organs in COVID...
The use of sniffer dogs has been reported to show some promise in early diagnosis of this type of cancer Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the possibility of utilizing changes in the heart rate of sniffer dogs (which increases when finding a positive sample) in tumor ...
While HEV patient isolates can be used for in vitro and in vivo infection studies, their genomes cannot be modified, limiting their utility in investigating the function of viral proteins and non-coding regions. To overcome the reproducibility issues of handling patient isolates and propagating viruse...
the present study focused on the Azores archipelago, more specifically the two most representative islands of this insular region—Terceira and São Miguel. Dogs and cats were introduced to these islands when the archipelago was first populated by the Portuguese people, in the years 1439 to 1444...
