OBJECTIVE: To characterize sleeping respiratory rates (SRRs) and resting respiratory rates (RRRs), collected in the home environment, of dogs with subclinical heart disease that could result in left-sided congestive heart failure. DESIGN: Prospective cross-sectional study. ANIMALS: 190 adult dogs wit...
The local distribution of helminths in dogs and cats and the evaluation of risk of contamination represent an important challenge for veterinarians due to their effects on animal health and their potential zoonotic risk. The overall goal of this study was to estimate the prevalence of the digestiv...
whereas a Th1 response leads to effective viral clearance and milder illness. A preexisting Th1 deficiency may be associated with severe disease in some children, which may be a marker of predisposition to wheezing and asthma later in life. The HRSV G protein, which is produced both as membran...

During AHRF, the respiratory flow–generation pathway could be affected at different levels according to the disease’s etiology. As the output of the respiratory centers cannot be directly measured, it is essential to identify the best monitoring surrogate of the respiratory drive. To this purpose...
Methods: Data were drawn from the Midlife Development in the United States Survey (n = 3,032), a representative sample of adults aged 25–74 years. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to determine the association between childhood abuse and current respiratory disease (past 12 months)...
