Evaluation of Symmetric Dimethylarginine (SDMA) in Dogs with Acute Pancreatitis 2020 Vet Sci Gori
SDMA was not significantly different between survivors and non-survivors
CT angiographic changes in dogs with acute pancreatitis: A prospective longitudinal study Vet Rad/ultraso 2020 French
The only statistically significant difference between the initial and repeat CTA examinations was the improvement of fat stranding on the repeat CTA examinations.
CTA performed at the time of admission is likely adequate in the diagnosis and evaluation of dogs with acute pancreatitis. Repeat CTA examinations are unlikely to add additional information in the absence of worsening clinical signs.
Ultrasonographic features of presumed gastric wall edema in 14 dogs with pancreatitis JVIM 2019 Murakami
gastric wall thickening presumably because of edema could be a complication of acute pancreatitis
Retrospective study evaluation of DGGR lipase for diagnosis, agreement with pancreatic lipase and prognosis in dogs with suspected acute pancreatitis Hope JSAP 2021
Using DGGR lipase at the lower cut-off could provide an additional test for supporting a diagnosis of acute pancreatitis in dogs particularly if cPL results are not available.
Multicenter investigation of hemostatic dysfunction in 15 dogs with acute pancreatitis JVECC 2019 Nielsen
Laboratory evidence of hypercoagulability was present in dogs with acute pancreatitis. Teg to monitor and guide therapy
higher D-dimers , fibrinogen, and von Willebrand factor as well as significantly lower antithrombin and prothrombin time values.
Computed tomographic angiography and ultrasonography in the diagnosis and evaluation of acute pancreatitis in dogs French JVIM 2019
In comparison to US, CTA better identified dogs with more severe acute pancreatitis and those with portal vein thrombosis, factors that may predict longer hospitalization and increased risk of relapse.
Serum concentrations of canine pancreatic lipase immunoreactivity and C-reactive protein for monitoring disease progression in dogs with acute pancreatitis 2021 JVIM Keany
both Serum cPLI and CRP were positively correlated with Modified canine activity index but not with the canine acute pancreatitis clinical severity index
Serum cPLI and possibly CRP could be used as objective biomarkers for clinical changes in hospitalized dogs with acute pancreatitis
Is the DGGR lipase test as reliable as the Spec cPL test for diagnosing acute pancreatitis in dogs? Vet record 2021 Morrow
There is good evidence that the serum DGGR lipase test is as reliable as the Spec cPL test for diagnosing acute pancreatitis in dogs.
Evaluation of diagnostic and prognostic usefulness of abdominal ultrasonography in dogs with clinical signs of acute pancreatitis JAVMA 2021 Gori
repeated AUS examinations during hospitalization should be performed, severe findings on the AUS severity index may indicate an increased risk of death, and serum cPL concentrations may increase earlier than findings on AUS of AP.
Serum trypsin-like immunoreactivity in dogs with diabetes mellitus JVIM 2021 Hamilton
There was no evidence of EPI as evaluated using cTLI in this cohort of diabetic dogs, but concurrent increases in cPLI suggest cTLI might not be the optimal indicator of exocrine pancreatic dysfunction in dogs with DM.
Serum triglyceride and cholesterol concentrations and lipoprotein profiles in dogs with naturally occurring pancreatitis and healthy control Xenoulis JVIM 2020
pancreatitis dogs had >70% had serum triglyceride and cholesterol concentrations within reference intervals.
Dogs with pancreatitis had higher low-density lipoprotein fractions and lower triglyceride-rich lipoprotein and high-density lipoprotein fractions than healthy dogs.
Hyperlipasemia in critically ill dogs with and without acute pancreatitis: Prevalence, underlying diseases, predictors, and outcome JVIM 2020 Prummer
ignificant DGGR-hyperlipasemia is frequent in critically ill dogs and associated with a variety of nonpancreatic conditions and negative outcome.
Alterations in serum protein electrophoresis profiles during the acute phase response in dogs with acute pancreatitis Can J vet Res 2020 Yoon
acute phase proteins - elevated concentrations of CRP, serum amyloid A and haptoglobin
Decreased levels of albumin and alpha-2 globulin
Prognostic markers and assessment of a previously published clinical severity index in 109 hospitalised dogs with acute presentation of pancreatitis Vet Rec 2020 Kuzi
A CSI based on an ‘organ score’ included nine categories,of which cardiac-related signs, hepatic injury, endocrinopathy, compromised intestinal integrity, haematopoietic or vascular force abnormalities were not associated with death
Kidney injury and respiratory signs were associated with death
This study has validated a nine-category CSI, proven a useful assessment tool in dogs with AP
Protease inhibitors, inflammatory markers, and their association with outcome in dogs with naturally occurring acute pancreatitis Kuzi JVIM 2020
Systemic inflammation in dogs with AP is manifested by increased inflammatory mediator concentrations, correlating with cPLI and CRP concentrations
Hypoantithrombinemia is associated with death
