Gastric <scp>pH</scp> and serum gastrin concentration in age‐matched healthy dogs and dogs with chronic kidney disease

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 37(6), 2119–2124.

By: K. Grady n, E. Ernst n, P. Secoura n, J. Price *, A. Birkenheuer n , S. Vaden n , J. Lidbury *, E. Gould *, J. Steiner *, M. Tolbert  n

author keywords: acid suppressant; azotemia; canine; famotidine; omeprazole
TL;DR: The results suggest that prophylactic gastric acid suppression in dogs with CKD is not warranted unless other clinical indications for use are present. (via Semantic Scholar)

TL;DR: Inflammation in the region of the lesser vestibular paraurethral glands should be considered as a differential for female dogs presenting with chronic dysuria. (via Semantic Scholar)

Spencer, A., Quimby, J. M., Price, J. M., MacLane, S., Hillsman, S., Secoura, P., … Tolbert, M. K. (2021, September 30). JOURNAL OF VETERINARY INTERNAL MEDICINE.

By: A. Spencer n, J. Quimby *, J. Price *, S. MacLane, S. Hillsman*, P. Secoura n, J. Steiner*, M. Tolbert *

author keywords: activity; dysrexia; proton pump inhibitor; vomiting
MeSH headings : Animals; Appetite; Cat Diseases / drug therapy; Cats; Cross-Over Studies; Double-Blind Method; Omeprazole / therapeutic use; Renal Insufficiency, Chronic / drug therapy; Renal Insufficiency, Chronic / veterinary
TL;DR: Once‐daily omeprazole does not markedly increase appetite in cats with CKD and should not be used as a first‐line treatment in the absence of evidence of gastrointestinal ulceration. (via Semantic Scholar)

US domestic cats as sentinels for perfluoroalkyl substances: Possible linkages with housing, obesity, and disease

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH, 151, 145–153.

By: P. Bost*, M. Strynar *, J. Reiner *, J. Zweigenbaum *, P. Secoura n, A. Lindstrom *, J. Dye *

author keywords: Cats; Obesity; Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS); Sentinels
MeSH headings : Alkanesulfonic Acids / blood; Animals; Caprylates / blood; Cat Diseases / blood; Cats; Environmental Monitoring / methods; Fluorocarbons / blood; Housing; Obesity / blood; Pets / blood
TL;DR: Domestic cats appear to be useful sentinels for assessing primary PFAS exposure routes, especially indoor sources of relevance to children, and a "One Health" approach assessing humans, pets, and their common environment may improve the understanding of chronic low-level, largely indoor,PFAS exposure and effects in humans and animals alike.
