This study was performed to evaluate the end systolic wall stress/end-systolic volume index ratio (ESWS/ESV-I) for LV systolic function in Anatolian shepherd dogs (ASHs) with stage B2 degenerative mitral valve disease (DMVD). Thirty-eight adult ASHs with DMVD (experimental group; 20 B1 dogs and 18 B2 dogs) and 30 weight-matched adult healthy ASHs (control group) were used as subjects. There was no overlap for the ESW5/ESV-I ratio (0.83 +/- 0.03, range: 0.61-1.09 for B2 dogs, 1.34 +/- 0.05, range: 1.11-1.89 for B1 dogs, 2.171 +/- 0.0 range: 1.91-3.02 for the control dogs) among the groups.

The aim of this study was to determine the levels of macrominerals and trace elements in the blood of newborn calves with sepsis.The study was carried out on a total of 30 calves, aged 2-35 days old, of which 25 with sepsis and 5 healthy. In clinical examination, prolonged capillary refill time and tachypnea were observed in calves with sepsis. The levels of Cu, K, P and Sin calves with sepsis were higher compared to the control group, and the levels of Na, total and ionized Ca, Fe and Zn were also lower compared to the control group. In conclusion, in this study, significant increase in K and ...Daha fazlası
