Recovery of normal esophageal function in a kitten with diffuse megaesophagus and an occult lower esophageal stricture

Schneider, J., Ames, M., DiCicco, M., Savage, M., Atkins, C., Wood, M., & Gookin, J. L. (2014, July 16). Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery, Vol. 17, pp. 557–561.

By: J. Schneider n, M. Ames n, M. DiCicco n, M. Savage n, C. Atkins n, M. Wood n, J. Gookin n 

MeSH headings : Animals; Cat Diseases / diagnosis; Cat Diseases / therapy; Catheterization / veterinary; Cats; Endoscopy / veterinary; Esophageal Achalasia / complications; Esophageal Achalasia / veterinary; Esophageal Stenosis / complications; Esophageal Stenosis / veterinary; Male; Recovery of Function
topics (OpenAlex): Esophageal and GI Pathology; Tracheal and airway disorders; Gastroesophageal reflux and treatments
TL;DR: Management of kittens with radiographic findings suggestive of congenital megaesophagus by means of gastrostomy tube feeding may be associated with a return of normal esophageal motility and widening of the esophagal stricture, and facilitate subsequent success of interventional dilation of the EsophageAL stricture.

By: R. Hutchins*, S. Vaden n , M. Jacob n, T. Harris n, K. Bowles n, M. Wood n, C. Bailey n

author keywords: Recurrent urinary tract infection; Lactic acid-producing bacteria
MeSH headings : Animals; Dog Diseases / microbiology; Dogs / microbiology; Female; Microbiota; Ovariectomy / veterinary; Recurrence; Urinary Tract Infections / microbiology; Urinary Tract Infections / veterinary; Vagina / microbiology
topics (OpenAlex): Urinary Tract Infections Management; Reproductive tract infections research; Urinary Bladder and Prostate Research
TL;DR: The vaginal microbiota of spayed female dogs with recurrent UTI was similar to the control population of normal, spayed male dogs and vaginal bacteria isolate from vaginal swabs obtained from each dog. (via Semantic Scholar)

2013 journal article

The Effect of an Oral Probiotic Containing Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, and Bacillus Species on the Vaginal Microbiota of Spayed Female Dogs

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 27(6), 1368–1371.

By: R. Hutchins n, C. Bailey n, M. Jacob n, T. Harris n, M. Wood n, K. Saker n, S. Vaden n 

author keywords: Lactic acid-producing bacteria; Recurrent urinary tract infection
MeSH headings : Animals; Bacillus / genetics; Bacillus / isolation & purification; Bifidobacterium / genetics; Bifidobacterium / isolation & purification; Dog Diseases / microbiology; Dog Diseases / prevention & control; Dogs; Female; Lactobacillus / genetics; Lactobacillus / isolation & purification; Microbiota / genetics; Probiotics / pharmacology; Sequence Analysis, DNA; Urinary Tract Infections / microbiology; Urinary Tract Infections / prevention & control; Urinary Tract Infections / veterinary; Vagina / microbiology
topics (OpenAlex): Urinary Tract Infections Management; Reproductive tract infections research; Gut microbiota and health
TL;DR: Administration of this oral probiotic supplement for a 2- or 4-week period did not increase the prevalence of vaginal LAB in dogs and Enterococcus canintestini was the most common LAB isolated from all dogs in this study, although it was not included in the probiotics supplement.

Assessment of Urine Solute and Matrix Effects on the Performance of an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay for Measurement of Interleukin-6 in Dog Urine

Wood, M. W., Nordone, S. K., Vaden, S. L., & Breitschwerdt, E. B. (2011, March 1). Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, Vol. 23, pp. 316–320.

By: M. Wood n, S. Nordone n, S. Vaden n  & E. Breitschwerdt n 

author keywords: Cytokine; enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; interleukin-6; matrix; urine
MeSH headings : Animals; Biomarkers / urine; Dog Diseases / immunology; Dog Diseases / urine; Dogs; Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay / methods; Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay / veterinary; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Interleukin-6 / urine; Limit of Detection; Specific Gravity; Urinary Tract Infections / immunology; Urinary Tract Infections / urine
topics (OpenAlex): Veterinary Medicine and Surgery; Immune Response and Inflammation; Microscopic Colitis
TL;DR: The role of urine pH, USG, and matrix are examined while optimizing a canine-specific chemiluminescent ELISA for the measurement of IL-6 in the urine of dogs to underscores the importance of critically optimizing testing modalities for biomarkers, particularly if they are immunologic in origin.

Cystoscopic Guided Removal of Ectopic Eggs from the Urinary Bladder of the Florida Cooter Turtle (Pseudemys floridana floridana)

Minter, L. J., Wood, M. W., Hill, T. L., & Lewbart, G. A. (2010, September 1). Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, Vol. 41, pp. 503–509.

By: L. Minter n, M. Wood n, T. Hill* & G. Lewbart n 

author keywords: Ectopic eggs; endoscope; cystoscopy; Florida cooter turtle; Pseudemys floridana floridana; urinary bladder
MeSH headings : Animals; Animals, Wild; Cystoscopy / veterinary; Female; Ovum / physiology; Oxytocics / adverse effects; Oxytocics / therapeutic use; Oxytocin / adverse effects; Oxytocin / therapeutic use; Turtles; Urinary Bladder / pathology
topics (OpenAlex): Turtle Biology and Conservation; Veterinary Pharmacology and Anesthesia; Bird parasitology and diseases
TL;DR: One of the three turtles died within several days of the procedure, and necropsy revealed granulomatous bacterial cystitis, and it is hypothesized that these complications were likely due to the length of time between induction with oxytocin and the identification and removal of the ectopic egg.
