Percutaneous ultrasound-guided ethanol ablation of a functional parathyroid tumor was performed 72-h earlier for management of primary hyperparathyroidism. The dog was hypocalcemic (ionized calcium 0.7 mmol/L, reference interval: 0.9–1.3 mmol/L) at the time of presentation and had evidence of laryngospasm on a sedated oral exam. The dog was managed conservatively with supplemental oxygen, anxiolysis, and parenteral calcium administration. These interventions were associated with rapid and sustained improvement in clinical signs. The dog did not demonstrate any recurrence of signs afterwards. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first description of laryngospasm following ethanol ablation of a parathyroid nodule in a dog that developed hypocalcemia.}, journal={FRONTIERS IN VETERINARY SCIENCE}, author={Rank, Kaitlyn and Lynch, Alex M. and Green, Randolph and Reed-Jones, Leslie and Harrell, Karyn and Ueda, Yu}, year={2023}, month={Jun} } @article{rank_lynch_ruterbories_li_ueda_2023, title={Evaluation of thrombin generation in dogs administered clopidogrel}, volume={10}, ISSN={2297-1769}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2023.1194242}, DOI={10.3389/fvets.2023.1194242}, abstractNote={IntroductionThe antiplatelet effect of clopidogrel can vary between patients. A modified thromboelastography (TEG) protocol (TEG-Platelet Mapping assay® [TEG-PM]) can be used for clopidogrel monitoring but is not widely available. Thrombin generation (TG) assays could offer a novel alternative. The main objective of this pilot study was to assess TG assay variables (lag time, peak, endogenous thrombin potential [ETP]) in dogs before and after 7 days of clopidogrel administration and compare with TEG-PM variables (maximum amplitude [MA]-ADP and percentage (%) inhibition).}, journal={Frontiers in Veterinary Science}, publisher={Frontiers Media SA}, author={Rank, Kaitlyn and Lynch, Alex M. and Ruterbories, Laura K. and Li, Ronald H.
