What Is Your Diagnosis?
Tucker, S., Archibald, K., Cohen, E. B., Sommer, S., Keene, B. W., Minter, L. J., & Delk, K. W. (2021, December). JOURNAL OF AVIAN MEDICINE AND SURGERY, Vol. 35, pp. 486–493.
TL;DR:
A captive 38-year-old female Chilean flamingo presented with an approximately 4-day history of being listless and moving slowly behind the flock and severe dilation of the left ventricle and decreased cardiac systolic function, which prompted diagnostic imaging and medical management of the cardiac abnormalities.

A deleterious mutation in the ALMS1 gene in a naturally occurring model of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in the Sphynx cat
ORPHANET JOURNAL OF RARE DISEASES, 16(1).
author keywords: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; ALMS1; Feline; Mitogenic; Sphynx
MeSH headings : Animals; Cardiomyopathy, Hypertrophic / genetics; Cats / genetics; Cell Cycle Proteins / genetics; Exons; Mice; Mutation / genetics
TL;DR:
This study demonstrates a novel form of cardiomyopathy associated with ALMS1 in the cat, and suggests that variants in genes involved with cardiac development and cell regulation, like the AL MS1 gene, may deserve further consideration for association with familial hypertrophic cardiopathy.

Absence of known feline MYH7 and MYBPC3 variants in a diverse cohort of cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
ANIMAL GENETICS, 52(4), 542–544.
author keywords: cardiomyopathy; feline; genetic; HCM; mutation

TL;DR:
The lack of these MYBPC3 and MYH7 variants in this feline HCM population indicates that the clinical utility of genetic testing for these variants may be isolated to the two cat breeds in which these variants have been identified.

Letter to the editor regarding "Efficacy of adding ramipril (VAsotop) to the combination of furosemide (Lasix) and pimobendan (VEtmedin) in dogs with mitral valve degeneration: The VALVE trial"
Atkins, C., Keene, B., DeFrancesco, T. C., Tou, S., Chetboul, V., Cote, E., … Stepien, R. L. (2021, March).
MeSH headings : Animals; Dogs; Furosemide / therapeutic use; Mitral Valve; Pyridazines / therapeutic use; Ramipril / therapeutic use
TL;DR:
The VALVE trial did not assess the efficacy of RAAS suppression using biomarkers, and the question of whether ramipril adequately or optimally suppressed RAAS, while failing to improve survival in the face of these diuretic dosages, remains unanswered.

Use of whole genome analysis to identify shared genomic variants across breeds in canine mitral valve disease
Williams, B., Friedenberg, S. G., Keene, B. W., Tou, S. P., DeFrancesco, T. C., & Meurs, K. M. (2021, June 27). HUMAN GENETICS, Vol. 6.
MeSH headings : Animals; Breeding; Dog Diseases / genetics; Dogs; Genetic Variation; Genome-Wide Association Study; Heart Valve Diseases / genetics; Heart Valve Diseases / veterinary; Mutation; Whole Genome Sequencing
TL;DR:
The findings indicate that development of MMVD in the dog may be related to a combination of genetic and environmental factors that impact specific molecular pathways rather than a single shared genetic variant across or within breeds.

Estimation of 24-h aldosterone secretion in the dog using the urine aldosterone: Creatinine ratio
Journal of Veterinary Cardiology, 9(1), 1–7.
MeSH headings : Aldosterone / metabolism; Aldosterone / urine; Animals; Creatinine / urine; Dog Diseases / diagnosis; Dog Diseases / urine; Dogs / metabolism; Dogs / urine; Female; Male; Radioimmunoassay / methods; Radioimmunoassay / veterinary; Renin-Angiotensin System / physiology
TL;DR:
It is postulated that the urinary aldosterone:creatinine ratio, measured from spot urine samples, would correlate well with 24-h urinary a Aldosterone excretion, and would provide a simple index of ald testosterone excretion that would eliminate the need for 24-H urine collection.
