Diagnostic utility of the total nucleated cell count for differentiation of septic and sterile peritoneal effusions in dogs
Didomenico, A. E., Jacob, M. E., Stowe, D. M., & Gruber, E. J. (2024, February 6). VETERINARY CLINICAL PATHOLOGY, Vol. 2.
author keywords: abdominal effusion; bacteria; fluid analysis; peritonitis; secondary peritonitis
TL;DR:
Total nucleated cell counts and absolute neutrophil counts aid in the differentiation of septic and non-septic peritoneal effusions with similar diagnostic utility but are not sufficiently sensitive or specific to use without concurrent microscopic evaluation.

Effect of Prolonged Serum Storage Time and Varied Temperatures on Biochemical Values in African Savanna Elephants (<i>Loxodonta africana</i>)
JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGICAL AND BOTANICAL GARDENS, 4(1), 12–20.
author keywords: elephant; serum chemistry; blood storage; temperature; serum stability; Loxodonta africana
TL;DR:
It is concluded that if serum is properly separated shortly after collection, many serum biochemical analytes can be accurately measured even after suboptimal serum storage, but refrigeration and prompt evaluation are still required for some analytes.

Total protein concentration as a predictor of in neoplastic peritoneal and pleural effusions of dogs
Parsley, A. L., Schnelle, A. N., Gruber, E. J., Sander, W. E., & Barger, A. M. (2022, May 10). VETERINARY CLINICAL PATHOLOGY, Vol. 5.

MeSH headings : Animals; Ascitic Fluid / pathology; Dog Diseases / diagnosis; Dog Diseases / pathology; Dogs; Hospitals, Animal; Hospitals, Teaching; Pleural Effusion / diagnosis; Pleural Effusion / etiology; Pleural Effusion / veterinary; Retrospective Studies
TL;DR:
Fluid TP concentrations were significantly greater in neoplastic than non-neoplastic effusions; however, given the considerable overlap between groups, the diagnostic utility of this difference is low.

LACTIC ACIDOSIS INDUCED BY MANUAL RESTRAINT FOR HEALTH EVALUATION AND COMPARISON OF TWO POINT-OF-CARE ANALYZERS IN HEALTHY LOGGERHEAD SEA TURTLES (CARETTA CARETTA)
JOURNAL OF ZOO AND WILDLIFE MEDICINE, 52(4), 1195–1204.
MeSH headings : Acidosis, Lactic / etiology; Acidosis, Lactic / veterinary; Animals; Bicarbonates; Carbon Dioxide; Point-of-Care Systems; Turtles
TL;DR:
Clinicians should evaluate blood gas values and lactate at the beginning of health evaluations and interpret serial lactate values in sea turtles with caution, because even short periods of manual restraint can induce lactic acidosis and considerably influence these values.

Macrophage uptake of oxidized and acetylated low-density lipoproteins and generation of reactive oxygen species are regulated by linear stiffness of the growth surface
PLOS ONE.
Ed(s): A. Zirlik
MeSH headings : Animals; Biological Transport; Lipoproteins, LDL / metabolism; Macrophages / metabolism; Macrophages / pathology; Male; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Reactive Oxygen Species / metabolism; Surface Properties; TRPV Cation Channels / metabolism
TL;DR:
Through pharmacologic inhibition and genetic deletion, it is found that transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4), a mechanosensitive ion channel, plays an inhibitory role in the uptake of acLDL, but not oxLDL.

Comparison of portable and conventional laboratory analyzers for biochemical tests in chickens
POULTRY SCIENCE, 100(2), 746–754.
Contributors: F. Ruiz-Jimenez n, n , M. Correa n & R. Crespo n
author keywords: analyzer; biochemical analysis; broiler; conventional; portable
MeSH headings : Animals; Blood Chemical Analysis / instrumentation; Blood Chemical Analysis / veterinary; Blood Gas Analysis / instrumentation; Blood Gas Analysis / veterinary; Chickens / blood; Hematologic Tests / instrumentation; Hematologic Tests / veterinary; Laboratories / standards; Point-of-Care Testing / standards; Reference Values; Time Factors
TL;DR:
Although statistically significant differences were found for some biochemical analytes over time, the actual mean or median differences were too small to be considered of clinical importance and future studies are warranted to establish analyzer-specific reference intervals for poultry.

Evaluation of procoagulant tissue factor expression in canine hemangiosarcoma cell lines
American Journal of Veterinary Research, 78(1), 69–79.

TL;DR:
Hemangiosarcoma cell lines expressed procoagulant TF in vitro, with significantly greater expression of both products in SB-HSA and Emma cells than in CnAoEC, and further research is needed to determine whether TF can be used as a biomarker for hemostatic dysfunction in dogs with hemangiosARcoma.

Role of tissue factor expression in thrombin generation by canine tumor cells

TL;DR:
A role for TF in hypercoagulability detected in dogs with mammary gland tumors and potentially for other tumors that strongly express TF is supported, supported by findings of high TF-expressing canine mammary cancer cells generation in a plasma milieu in vitro in a factor VII- and phosphatidylserine-dependent manner.
