Abstract
An increase in systemic blood pressure causes bleeding and ischemia owing to peripheral vascular breakdown, leading to various forms of organ damage. The brain, eyes, kidneys, and cardiovascular system are known target organs for hypertension. To our knowledge, no reports in Japan describe, in detail, the types of antihypertensive drugs used to treat hypertension in cats or its underlying causes. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the use of antihypertensive drugs in domestic cats with hypertension in Japan, the causes of hypertension, and the vital prognosis of these patients. In the present survey, we found that amlodipine was used alone (60/80 cats) or concomitantly (20/80 cats) in all cat patients with hypertension in Japan. We also determined that blood pressure measurements were not yet routinely performed on cats at veterinary clinics in Japan. Furthermore, we have new information suggesting that amlodipine administration in cats with hypertension, which lowers systolic arterial pressure levels to within the normal range (<140 mmHg), may have a negative impact on their survival. Routine blood pressure measurements for cats during their regular health checkups can help identify hypertension, and proper interpretation of blood pressure readings can facilitate suitable treatment measures.

Abstract
Here we report a case series of two dogs diagnosed as renal interstitial cell tumor (RICT) accompanied by elevated serum erythropoietin level and marked polycythemia. RICT is a rare tumor in dogs, originating from renal interstitial cells. While several renal tumors such as renal lymphoma, adenocarcinoma, carcinoma, sarcoma, fibrosarcoma and nephroblastoma may cause polycythemia, polycythemia caused by RICT has never been reported in dogs. The tumors in both dogs were solitary and lied within cortex or cortico-medullary junction. Histopathology revealed spindle-shaped cells suggesting mesenchymal origin, with no mitotic figures suggesting that the tumors in both dogs were benign. Following surgical removal of the affected kidney, serum erythropoietin level and polycythemia normalized in both dogs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to evaluate the hemodynamic and RA system effects of the oral administration of the clinical dose of beraprost for feline CKD in healthy cats, and also to examine whether NOS inhibition reversed them. METHODS A placebo-controlled pharmacological sequential design study was carried out to assess the plasma aldosterone and renin concentrations (PAC and PRC), blood pressure, heart rate, and exploratorily to estimate renal plasma flow (RPF) and renal vascular resistance (RVR) with simplified methods. RESULTS Beraprost reduced PAC when compared to the placebo (p < 0.05); this was reversed when NOS inhibitor NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) was added to the beraprost treatment (p < 0.01). No differences in the PRC or hemodynamic parameters were detected between beraprost and the placebo. The correlation ratios (η2) showed opposite relationships between beraprost and the added L-NAME effects on PAC, mean blood pressure (MBP), heart rate, estimated RPF (p < 0.001), estimated RVR (p < 0.01), and PRC (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS In healthy cats, the clinical dose of beraprost suppresses PAC, which can be reversed by the inhibition of NOS.

Abstract
Background Radiographic examination of the middle ear in French bulldogs can be challenging due to their small ear cavity and thick walls. Quantifying opacity on radiographic images is required to determine normal or abnormal results. Aim To quantify the radiographic opacity of the middle ear in French bulldogs and create a threshold for objective diagnosis. Methods A study was conducted on 32 French Bulldogs using radiographic images. Significant difference tests were performed on the ears of patients with unilateral and bilateral middle ear filling on computed tomography. A threshold was established for detecting left-right asymmetry in the same individuals. In addition, comparisons were made between the filling and nonfilling middle ear groups to establish a threshold of pixel values that could determine single middle ear filling and nonfilling for different patient images. Results Significant differences were observed in the left-right difference in max, left-right difference in max-ave, and left-right ratio of max-ave between unilateral and bilateral filling groups. The max-ave left-right ratio had the highest area under the curve value with a cutoff of 1.077% and 92.3% sensitivity. The item that showed a significant difference between middle ear groups with and without filling was corrected for nasopharyngeal pixel values with a cutoff of 1.028% and 85% sensitivity. Conclusion Pixel value ratios in the middle ear region can detect asymmetries in ear densities. The max value in the region compared to the same image's nasopharyngeal region can determine the filling. Combining individual ear evaluations and symmetry improves accuracy.

Abstract
Scedosporium apiospermum is a saprophytic filamentous fungus that is pathogenic to dogs. This report describes a case of S. apiospermum infection that caused multiple large peritoneal fungal granulomas in a dog with a history of jejunojejunostomy. The lesions were firmly attached to multiple organs and could not be surgically removed. In such cases, no precedent for the response to the treatment of this disease exists, and all affected dogs have died. This is the first report of an effective medical treatment for multiple intra-abdominal fungal granulomas using voriconazole.

Abstract
Canine primary lung cancer (cPLC) is a rare malignant tumor in dogs, and exhibits poor prognosis. Effective therapeutic drugs against cPLC have not been established yet. Also, cPLC resembles human lung cancer in histopathological characteristics and gene expression profiles and thus could be an important research model for this disease. Three-dimensional organoid culture is known to recapitulate the tissue dynamics in vivo. We, therefore, tried to generate cPLC organoids (cPLCO) for analyzing the profiles of cPLC. After samples from cPLC and the corresponding normal lung tissue were collected, cPLCO were successfully generated, which recapitulated the tissue architecture of cPLC, expressed lung adenocarcinoma marker (TTF1), and exhibited tumorigenesis in vivo. The sensitivity of cPLCO to anti-cancer drugs was different among strains. RNA-sequencing analysis showed significantly upregulated 11 genes in cPLCO compared with canine normal lung organoids (cNLO). Moreover, cPLCO were enriched with the MEK-signaling pathway compared with cNLO. The MEK inhibitor, trametinib decreased the viability of several strains of cPLCO and inhibited the growth of cPLC xenografts. Collectively, our established cPLCO model might be a useful tool for identifying novel biomarkers for cPLC and a new research model for dog and human lung cancer.

Abstract
Canine malignant mesothelioma (cMM) is a rare and drug-resistant malignant tumor. Due to few patients and experimental models, there have not been enough studies to demonstrate the pathogenesis of the disease and novel effective treatment for cMM. Since cMM resembles human MM (hMM) in histopathological characteristics, it is also considered a promising research model of hMM. Compared with conventional 2-dimensional (2D) culture methods, 3-dimensional (3D) organoid culture can recapitulate the properties of original tumor tissues. However, cMM organoids have never been developed. In the present study, we for the first time generated cMM organoids using the pleural effusion samples. Organoids from individual MM dogs were successfully generated. They exhibited the characteristics of MM and expressed mesothelial cell markers, such as WT-1 and mesothelin. The sensitivity to anti-cancer drugs was different in each strain of cMM organoids. RNA sequencing analysis showed cell adhesion molecule pathways were specifically upregulated in cMM organoids compared with their corresponding 2D cultured cells. Among these genes, the expression level of E-cadherin was drastically higher in the organoids than that in the 2D cells. In conclusion, our established cMM organoids might become a new experimental tool to provide new insights into canine and human MM therapy.

Abstract
A 6-year-old castrated male Cavalier King Charles Spaniel was referred to the Animal Medical Center, Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, for examination and treatment of recurrent pneumothorax. Chest radiography and computed tomography showed multiple cavitary lesions in the caudal right posterior lobe. These lesions were surgically excised via thoracotomy. Subsequent histopathological examination revealed paragonimiasis. In the postoperative review, we found that the owner had fed raw deer meat to the dog four months earlier. Deer meat has attracted attention as a source of Paragonimus in humans. To our knowledge, this is the first report of Paragonimus infection in a dog due to deer meat consumption.

Abstract
Recently, cilostazol, a phosphodiesterase III inhibitor, has been described as alternative medical treatment for canine bradyarrhythmia in cases for which pacemaker implantation was not indicated or available. In this retrospective study, we investigated the use and efficacy of cilostazol in dogs with bradyarrhythmia in Japan. Dogs that had been brought to the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology Animal Medical Center and 23 veterinary hospitals in Japan and been treated with cilostazol initially as the only therapeutic strategy for bradyarrhythmia between January 2010 and August 2021 were included in this study. Survival analyses were performed using Cox proportional hazards analysis, the log-rank test, and the generalized Wilcoxon test to evaluate the efficacy of cilostazol. Fifty-nine privately owned dogs were included in this study. In the survival time analysis, the risk of death was significantly lower and the survival rate was higher in cases in which cilostazol was administered at 10 mg/kg or more per dose. A third-degree atrioventricular block also significantly increased the risk of death and was associated with a lower survival rate. However, in some patients with a third-degree atrioventricular block, there was an increase in the ventricular rate and improvement in clinical symptoms without disappearance or decrease of the atrioventricular block. This study had several important findings that have not previously been reported concerning the use of cilostazol for canine bradyarrhythmia, including the appropriate dose in a clinical setting and the efficacy and prognosis according to the type of bradyarrhythmia.

Abstract
Heart failure cause hypoperfusion-induced damage to abdominal organs due to decreased cardiac output (CO). Using a model dog with heart failure caused by rapid ventricular pacing (RVP), we have previously demonstrated that a decrease in CO reduces pancreatic blood flow (PBF). Furthermore, we have revealed that pancreatic acinar cell atrophy, which is a change in the pre-stage of pancreatitis was caused. However, the mechanism by which pancreatic acinar cell atrophy was caused in RVP dogs remains unknown. This study aimed to clarify the association between cardiac function, PBF, and histopathological changes in pancreatic acinar cells by administrating pimobendan, which increase CO, to RVP dogs. RVP dogs were divided into the control group (no medication, n = 5) and the pimobendan group (pimobendan at 0.25 mg/kg BID, n = 5). Non-invasive blood pressure measurement, echocardiography, and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography for PBF measurement were performed before initiating RVP and at 4 weeks after initiating RVP (4 weeks). At 4 weeks, the decreases in CO, mean blood pressure and PBF due to RVP were suppressed in pimobendan group. Furthermore, histopathological examination showed no changes in pancreatic acinar cells in the pimobendan group. Overall, it was clarified that the decrease in PBF due to cardiac dysfunction was a direct cause of pancreatic acinar cell atrophy. This suggests that maintaining PBF is clinically important for treating dogs with heart failure. In addition, these findings offer a reliable basis for developing new therapeutic strategies for heart failure in dogs, that is, pancreatic protection.

Abstract
Dog bladder cancer (BC) is mostly muscle-invasive (MI) with poor prognosis, and its pathogenesis is close to human MIBC. Three-dimensional (3D) organoid culture ensures novel knowledge on cancer diseases including BC. Recently, we have established dog BC organoids (BCO) using their urine samples. BCO recapitulated the epithelial structures, characteristics, and drug sensitivity of BC-diseased dogs. However, organoids from dog normal bladder epithelium are not established yet. Therefore, the present study aimed to establish dog normal bladder organoids (NBO) for further understanding the pathogenesis of dog BC and human MIBC. The established NBO underwent various analyzes including cell marker expressions, histopathological structures, cancer-related gene expression patterns, and drug sensitivity. NBO could be produced non-invasively with a continuous culturing and recapitulated the structures and characteristics of the dog's normal bladder mucosal tissues. Different drug sensitivities were observed in each NBO. The analysis of RNA sequencing revealed that several novel genes were changed in NBO compared with BCO. NBO showed a higher expression of p53 and E-cadherin, but a lower expression of MDM2 and Twist1 compared with BCO. These results suggest that NBO could be a promising experimental 3D model for studying the developmental mechanisms of dog BC and human MIBC.

Abstract
In patients with solid tumors, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) spread in their blood and function as a seed for metastases. However, the study of CTCs has been limited by their rarity, low frequency, and heterogeneity. The efficient collection of CTCs will contribute to further research of metastatic cancers. Apheresis is a process in which the whole blood of an individual is passed through a machine that isolates a particular constituent and returns the remainder to the circulation. In the present study, we investigated the safety and feasibility of apheresis to separate peripheral blood monocytes (PBMCs), whose density is closely similar to that of CTCs, and to capture intravenously administered human breast cancer cells, MCF7s, from the dogs. No life-threatening events were observed in dogs during the apheresis process. The changes in the hemogram were transient and recovered gradually within a few days after apheresis. During apheresis, 50 mL of PBMCs could be collected from each dog. Notably, a thrombus was formed along the circuit wall during apheresis, which decreased the blood collection pressure. MCF7 cells were successfully captured by the apheresis machine. The captured cells were regrown in vitro and characterized compared with the original cells. In conclusion, apheresis could be safely performed in dogs to isolate CTCs with precautions to maintain hemodynamic stability.

Abstract
Bladder cancer (BC), a main neoplasm of urinary tract, is usually inoperable and unresponsive to chemotherapy. As a novel experimental model for muscle-invasive BC, we previously established a culture method of dog BC organoids. In the present study, the detailed in vitro and in vivo anti-tumor effects of trametinib were investigated by using this model. In each BC organoid strain, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/ERK signaling was upregulated compared with normal bladder cells. Trametinib even at a low concentration inhibited the cell viability of BC organoids and the activation of ERK through decreasing expression of c-Myc, ELK1, SIK1, and PLA2G4A. Trametinib arrested cell cycle of BC with few apoptosis. Dual treatment of BC organoids with trametinib and YAP inhibitor, verteporfin extremely inhibited the cell viability with apoptosis induction. Moreover, trametinib induced basal to luminal differentiation of BC organoids by upregulating luminal markers and downregulating basal ones. In vivo, trametinib decreased the tumor growth of BC organoids in mice and the xenograft-derived organoids from trametinib-administered mice showed enhanced sensitivity to carboplatin due to MSH2 upregulation. Our data suggested a new strategy of trametinib-YAP inhibitor or trametinib-carboplatin combination as a promising treatment of BC.

Abstract
In dogs, pancreatic acinar cell injury is thought to be caused by decreased pancreatic blood flow due to heart failure. In previous our report, it demonstrated that decreased heart function causes a significant decrease in pancreatic blood flow in heart failure dog model caused by rapid ventricular pacing (RVP). However, the types of histopathological changes remain unclear. We aimed to verify the types of histopathological changes occurring in the pancreatic tissue due to decreased heart function. After RVP for 4 weeks, atrophy of pancreatic acinar cells, characterized by a decrease in zymogen granules, was observed in all areas of the pancreas. In conclusion, the result of this study suggests that attention should be paid to ischemia/hypoperfusion injury in the pancreas.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine whether glucocorticoid (GC) administration alters hippocampal cerebral blood flow (CBF) or volume in dogs. ANIMALS 6 clinically normal adult Beagles. PROCEDURES Each dog underwent CT and MRI to measure the CBF in the hippocampus, basal ganglia, thalamus, and cerebral cortex and the volume of the hippocampus in each hemisphere of the brain before (day 0) and during (days 7 and 21) a 21-day treatment with prednisolone (1.0 mg/kg, PO, q 24 h) and famotidine (0.5 mg/kg, PO, q 12 h). Results for hippocampal volume, anesthesia-related variables, and semiquantitative measurements of CBF (hemisphere-specific ratios of the CBF in the hippocampus, basal ganglia, and thalamus relative to the CBF in the ipsilateral cerebral cortex and the left cerebral cortex CBF-to-right cerebral cortex CBF ratio) were compared across assessment time points (days 0, 7, and 21). RESULTS The ratios of CBF in the right hippocampus and right thalamus to that in the right cerebral cortex on day 21 were significantly lower than those on day 0. No meaningful differences were detected in results for the hippocampal volume in either hemisphere or for the anesthesia-related variables across the 3 time points. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Results indicated that GC administration reduced CBF in the hippocampus and thalamus in dogs of the present study, similar to that which occurs in humans. Research on GC-related brain alteration in dogs could potentially contribute to advancements in understanding Alzheimer disease in humans and neurodegenerative conditions in dogs.

Abstract
To date, coagulation tests are unable to reflect in vivo coagulation status in the same system, including platelet function, fibrin clot formation, and whole blood flow. The Total Thrombus Analysis System (T-TAS), which is a microfluidic assay that simulates conditions in vivo, measures whole blood flow at defined shear rates under conditions designed to assess platelet function (PL-chip) or coagulation and fibrin clot formation (AR-chip). The T-TAS records occlusion start time, occlusion time, and area under the curve. We evaluated this test in healthy control dogs. We also investigated the effect in vivo of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), and the effect in vitro of an anticoagulation drug (dalteparin; low-molecular-weight heparin; LMWH). The CV of the AUC of both chips was good (CVs of 6.45% [PL] and 1.57% [AR]). The inhibition of platelet function by ASA was evident in the right-shift in the PL test pressure curve. The right-shift in the AR test pressure curves showed that the administration of LMWH inhibited both platelets and the coagulation cascade. The T-TAS may be useful in the evaluation of canine blood coagulation.

Abstract
The pancreas is believed to be vulnerable to hypoperfusion. In dogs with acute pancreatitis, pancreatic ischemia due to heart failure can worsen the condition. However, changes in pancreatic blood flow associated with decreased cardiac function have not been previously studied in dogs. Therefore, we aimed to identify and compare changes in pancreatic versus renal blood flow as a result of cardiac dysfunction. Seven dogs were subjected to rapid ventricular pacing to create heart failure models. Noninvasive blood pressure measurement, ultrasonic cardiography, contrast-enhanced ultrasonography for pancreatic blood flow measurement, and para-aminohippuric acid clearance for renal blood flow measurement were performed before starting and at 2 and 4 weeks after starting the pacing. Left ventricular cardiac output and mean blood pressure decreased at 2 and 4 weeks after starting the pacing, and pancreatic blood flow decreased at 2 and 4 weeks after starting the pacing. However, renal blood flow did not change at 2 weeks but decreased 4 weeks after starting the pacing. Overall, this study demonstrated that reduced pancreatic blood flow due to cardiac dysfunction occurs, similar to renal blood flow. This suggests that decreased pancreatic blood flow is not unusual and may frequently occur in dogs with heart failure. The results of this study support the speculation that heart failure can exacerbate acute pancreatitis. Additionally, this study provides useful basic information for designing further studies to study this association.

Abstract
Among small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs/sRNAs), the functional regulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) has been studied in canine oral melanoma (COM). However, the expression level of other sncRNAs, like small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), transfer RNA-derived fragments (tRFs) and PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), in COM is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate sncRNAs other than miRNAs in COM from our small RNA sequencing project (PRJNA516252). We found that several snRNAs and piRNAs were upregulated, whereas tRFs and snoRNAs were downregulated in COM. Upregulation of U1 snRNA and piR-972, and downregulation of tRNA-ser (1) and snoRA24 was confirmed in dog melanoma tissue and cell lines by quantitative reverse transcription PCR. Consistently, the expression of tRNA-ser (1) and snoRA24 in plasma of COM cases was also decreased. Finally, we found a similar expression trend of U1 and snoRA24 in the human cutaneous melanoma cell line, MEWO, compared with human epidermal melanocyte cells (HEMa-Lp). In our study, snRNA, snoRNA, tRFs and piRNA were dysregulated during melanoma progression. Moreover, the melanoma-associated expression of U1 and snoRA24 was similar in human and dog melanoma.

Abstract
Dogs have been considered as an excellent immunocompetent model for human melanoma due to the same tumor location and the common clinical and pathological features with human melanoma. However, the differences in the melanoma transcriptome between the two species have not been yet fully determined. Considering the role of oncogenes in melanoma development, in this study, we first characterized the transcriptome in canine oral melanoma and then compared the transcriptome with that of human melanoma. The global transcriptome from 8 canine oral melanoma samples and 3 healthy oral tissues were compared by RNA-Seq followed by RT-qPCR validation. The results revealed 2,555 annotated differentially expressed genes, as well as 364 novel differentially expressed genes. Dog chromosomes 1 and 9 were enriched with downregulated and upregulated genes, respectively. Along with 10 significant transcription site binding motifs; the NF-κB and ATF1 binding motifs were the most significant and 4 significant unknown motifs were indentified among the upregulated differentially expressed genes. Moreover, it was found that canine oral melanoma shared >80% significant oncogenes (upregulated genes) with human melanoma, and JAK-STAT was the most common significant pathway between the species. The results identified a 429 gene signature in melanoma, which was up-regulated in both species; these genes may be good candidates for therapeutic development. Furthermore, this study demonstrates that as regards oncogene expression, human melanoma contains an oncogene group that bears similarities with dog oral melanoma, which supports the use of dogs as a model for the development of novel therapeutics and experimental trials before human application.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) dysregulation contribute the cancer pathogenesis. However, the miRNA profile of canine oral melanoma (COM), one of the frequent malignant melanoma in dogs is still unrevealed. The aim of this study is to reveal the miRNA profile in canine oral melanoma. MiRNAs profile of oral tissues from normal healthy dogs and COM patients were compared by next-generation sequencing. Along with tumour suppressor miRNAs, we report 30 oncogenic miRNAs in COM. The expressions of miRNAs were further confirmed by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Pathway analysis showed that deregulated miRNAs impact on cancer and signalling pathways. Three oncogenic miRNAs targets (miR-450b, 301a, and 223) from human study also were down-regulated in COM and had a significant negative correlation with their respective miRNA. Furthermore, we found that miR-450b expression is higher in metastatic cells and regulated MMP9 expression through a PAX9-BMP4-MMP9 axis. In silico analysis indicated that miR-126, miR-20b, and miR-106a regulated the highest numbers of differentially expressed transcription factors with respect to human melanoma. Chromosomal enrichment analysis revealed the X chromosome was enriched with oncogenic miRNAs. We comprehensively analyzed the miRNA's profile in COM which will be a useful resource for developing therapeutic interventions in both species.

Abstract
In human and dogs, bladder cancer (BC) is the most common neoplasm affecting the urinary tract. Dog BC resembles human muscle‐invasive BC in histopathological characteristics and gene expression profiles, and could be an important research model for this disease. Cancer patient‐derived organoid culture can recapitulate organ structures and maintains the gene expression profiles of original tumor tissues. In a previous study, we generated dog prostate cancer organoids using urine samples, however dog BC organoids had never been produced. Therefore we aimed to generate dog BC organoids using urine samples and check their histopathological characteristics, drug sensitivity, and gene expression profiles. Organoids from individual BC dogs were successfully generated, expressed urothelial cell markers (CK7, CK20, and UPK3A) and exhibited tumorigenesis in vivo. In a cell viability assay, the response to combined treatment with a range of anticancer drugs (cisplatin, vinblastine, gemcitabine or piroxicam) was markedly different in each BC organoid. In RNA‐sequencing analysis, expression levels of basal cell markers (CK5 and DSG3) and several novel genes (MMP28,CTSE,CNN3,TFPI2,COL17A1, and AGPAT4) were upregulated in BC organoids compared with normal bladder tissues or two‐dimensional (2D) BC cell lines. These established dog BC organoids might be a useful tool, not only to determine suitable chemotherapy for BC diseased dogs but also to identify novel biomarkers in human muscle‐invasive BC. In the present study, for the 1st time, dog BC organoids were generated and several specifically upregulated organoid genes were identified. Our data suggest that dog BC organoids might become a new tool to provide fresh insights into both dog BC therapy and diagnostic biomarkers.

Abstract
A 15-year-old neutered male Persian cat was presented with recurrent hematemesis and
melena. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography revealed a mass in the proximal
descending duodenal wall. Endoscopic examination revealed hemorrhage on the luminal side
of the mass. Fine-needle aspiration of the mass was performed. Microscopic analysis
revealed a cluster of cells with oval nuclei and indistinct cell borders, suggesting a
neoplastic disease of neuroendocrine origin. The mass located near the major duodenal
papilla was partially resected, and the bleeding was stopped by cauterization. However,
the surgical procedures could not control the hemorrhage from the tumor mass, and the cat
died of severe anemia. Immunohistopathological analysis revealed that the tumor was a
duodenal carcinoid.

Abstract
The changes in intra-atrial blood coagulability of acute phase after development of atrial fibrillation (AF) have not been elucidated in human. In the present study, blood coagulability were examined in the intra-atrial and peripheral regions during the acute phase after development of rapid atrial pacing (RAP) in experimentally created model dog similar to AF, using Total Thrombus-formation Analysis System (T-TAS) that is capable of comprehensively evaluating thrombogenicity in the bloodstream in the microvascular channel. According to the results, both the coagulating function-evaluating time to +10 kPa (T10) and occlusion time (OT) of the AR chip (chip for thrombus analysis mixed with coagulation and platelet) were significantly shortened in the atrial blood as early as 30 min after pacing (T10, 150.5 ± 40.5 s; OT, 212.4 ± 44.3 s) compared to the pre-pacing levels (T10, 194.5 ± 47.5 s; OT, 259.9 ± 49.5 s) (P<0.05). The OT of PL chip (chip for platelet thrombus analysis) was significantly shortened 30 min after pacing (231.8 ± 57.6 s), compared to the pre-pacing level (289.5 ± 96.0 s) (P<0.05). Meanwhile, none of T10 and OT of AR and PL chips showed any significant changes in the peripheral blood. The study demonstrated increase of blood coagulability 30 min after development of RAP. While no significant changes were observed in the peripheral blood in the present study, the outcome suggested that the anti-thrombus treatments are better to be started early after AF even if coagulability of the peripheral blood shows no change.

Abstract
A 6-year-old neutered male Yorkshire Terrier presented with recurrent pericardial effusion. Although clinical examinations including computed tomography were inconclusive, an exploratory thoracotomy revealed multiple small nodules and plaques on the inner surface of the pericardial sac (Day 1). A subtotal pericardiectomy was performed to prevent cardiac tamponade due to the increasing pericardial effusion, and the resected section of the pericardium was histopathologically diagnosed with mesothelioma. After surgery, chemotherapy with intrathoracic carboplatin was commenced. During the course of the treatment, a detailed follow-up ultrasonographic scan was performed to detect early lesions disseminated on the pleura, originating from the primary pericardial mesothelioma. On Day 101, the minute pleural nodules, which were disseminated lesions as predicted, were successfully imaged by ultrasonography. As the clinical stage advanced, the nodules were observed to gradually increase in size and number, implying tumor progression. These observations highlight the feasibility of ultrasonography in detecting minute disseminated lesions at an early stage, monitoring tumor progression, and thereby, predicting the prognosis of canine pericardial mesothelioma.

Abstract
Maintaining a good ventricular systolic function is important in the long-term therapy of dogs with supraventricular tachyarrhythmia (SVTA). The objective of this study was to evaluate the
inhibitory effect of telmisartan on myocardial injury and the resulting ventricular systolic dysfunction in a canine model of SVTA. A total of 14 dogs were randomly assigned to a Telmisartan
(oral telmisartan, 1.0 mg/kg daily, n=7) or a Control (no drug administration, n=7) group; the duration of rapid atrial pacing (RAP) was 3 weeks for both groups. The cardiac troponin I
(cTnI) concentration in the Control group was significantly increased after 3 weeks compared to that before RAP initiation (baseline), but no significant difference was observed in the
Telmisartan group. Moreover, the cTnI concentration at 3 weeks was significantly lower in the Telmisartan group than in the Control group. The left ventricular fractional shortening was
significantly decreased at 3 weeks compared to that at baseline in both groups. However, fractional shortening at 3 weeks was significantly higher in the Telmisartan group than in the
Control group. The cardiac output values in the Control group were significantly decreased at 3 weeks compared with those at baseline, but no significant difference was observed in the
Telmisartan group. This study demonstrates that telmisartan inhibits the reduction in ventricular systolic function and prevents myocardial injury in a canine model of SVTA. Therefore,
telmisartan is suggested as a novel treatment for canine SVTA.

Abstract
RATIONALE This initiative is focused on building a global consensus around core diagnostic criteria for malnutrition in adults in clinical settings. METHODS In January 2016, the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) was convened by several of the major global clinical nutrition societies. GLIM appointed a core leadership committee and a supporting working group with representatives bringing additional global diversity and expertise. Empirical consensus was reached through a series of face-to-face meetings, telephone conferences, and e-mail communications. RESULTS A two-step approach for the malnutrition diagnosis was selected, i.e., first screening to identify "at risk" status by the use of any validated screening tool, and second, assessment for diagnosis and grading the severity of malnutrition. The malnutrition criteria for consideration were retrieved from existing approaches for screening and assessment. Potential criteria were subjected to a ballot among the GLIM core and supporting working group members. The top five ranked criteria included three phenotypic criteria (weight loss, low body mass index, and reduced muscle mass) and two etiologic criteria (reduced food intake or assimilation, and inflammation or disease burden). To diagnose malnutrition at least one phenotypic criterion and one etiologic criterion should be present. Phenotypic metrics for grading severity as Stage 1 (moderate) and Stage 2 (severe) malnutrition are proposed. It is recommended that the etiologic criteria be used to guide intervention and anticipated outcomes. The recommended approach supports classification of malnutrition into four etiology-related diagnosis categories. CONCLUSION A consensus scheme for diagnosing malnutrition in adults in clinical settings on a global scale is proposed. Next steps are to secure further collaboration and endorsements from leading nutrition professional societies, to identify overlaps with syndromes like cachexia and sarcopenia, and to promote dissemination, validation studies, and feedback. The diagnostic construct should be re-considered every 3-5 years.

Abstract
Appropriate dosages of cilostazol have not been studied in veterinary patients, and the degrees of heart rate (HR) increase have not been studied in dogs administered cilostazol. Therefore,
this study aimed to investigate the degrees of HR increase in healthy dogs administered cilostazol. Thirty healthy beagle dogs (15 males and 15 females; age, 5–8 years) were divided into 3
groups of 10 dogs each and orally administered 2.5, 5, or 10 mg/kg cilostazol (twice a day at 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM for 10 days). Higher HR increases were seen in the 5 mg/kg group than in the
2.5 mg/kg group at all time points except 7:00 AM, 9:00 AM, 1:00 PM, and 4:00 PM (P<0.01). Higher HR increases were also observed in the 10 mg/kg group than in the 2.5
mg/kg group at all time points except 4:00 PM (P<0.01). The 10 mg/kg group showed higher HR increases than the 5 mg/kg group at all time points except 6:00 AM, 7:00 AM,
6:00 PM, and 7:00 PM (P<0.05 for 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM; P<0.01 for the other time points). These results together show that the HR of healthy dogs
increased in a dose-dependent manner after cilostazol administration twice a day at doses of 5 to 10 mg/kg. These results provide a useful basis for choosing cilostazol in the treatment of
bradyarrhythmia in dogs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Changes in blood characteristics in the atrium and peripheral vessels in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) are unclear. We investigated chronological changes in blood characteristics in the atrium and peripheral vessels in a dog model of NVAF by using a total thrombus-formation analysis system (T-TAS). MATERIALS AND METHODS In NVAF model dogs (n = 8, 390 bpm rapid atrial pacing), atrial and peripheral blood samples were collected. Using this blood, T-TAS was performed before and 1, 2, and 3 weeks after the onset of rapid atrial pacing. RESULTS Occlusion time (OT: time to +80 and +60 kPa in the AR and PL chips, respectively) and area under the flow pressure curve (AUC) were measured using the AR chip (for mixed white thrombus analysis) and PL chip (for platelet thrombus analysis). OT of the AR chip showed shortening as early as 1 week after NVAF onset, which continued for 3 weeks. OT of the PL chip showed significant shortening in atrium blood only 3 weeks after NVAF onset. By contrast, peripheral blood showed no significant changes in OT or AUC with both AR and PL chips. CONCLUSIONS In our dog model of NVAF, thrombus formation accelerated in the atrium as early as 1 week after NVAF onset and continued for 3 weeks, but no significant changes were found in peripheral blood. We conclude that antithrombotic therapy should be started early after NVAF onset even if no changes in coagulation activity are observed in peripheral blood.

The top five ranked criteria included three phenotypic criteria (non-volitional weight loss, low body mass index, and reduced muscle mass) and two etiologic criteria (reduced food intake or assimilation, and inflammation or disease burden). To diagnose malnutrition at least one phenotypic criterion and one etiologic criterion should be present. Phenotypic metrics for grading severity as Stage 1 (moderate) and Stage 2 (severe) malnutrition are proposed. It is recommended that the etiologic criteria be used to guide intervention and anticipated outcomes. The recommended approach supports classification of malnutrition into four etiology-related diagnosis categories. CONCLUSION A consensus scheme for diagnosing malnutrition in adults in clinical settings on a global scale is proposed. Next steps are to secure further collaboration and endorsements from leading nutrition professional societies, to identify overlaps with syndromes like cachexia and sarcopenia, and to promote dissemination, validation studies, and feedback. The diagnostic construct should be re-considered every 3-5 years.

Abstract
An entire, female, mixed‐breed cat of unknown age was presented with a 6‐week history of lethargy, anorexia and vomiting. There was an increase in the number of white blood cells in the blood, including neutrophils and eosinophils; moderate anaemia; ascites; and possible mesenteric peritonitis. Exploratory laparotomy revealed firm, multifocal small nodules in the mesentery. As the nodules were surgically unresectable, they were biopsied. Histologically, the nodules were composed of thin trabeculae of dense collagen fibres mixed with plump fibroblasts and numerous eosinophils, consistent with feline gastrointestinal eosinophilic sclerosing fibroplasia. Bacteria were not detected on histological examination of the nodules and cytology of the ascites. Remission of disease occurred following treatment with prednisolone and ciclosporin A for 22 days and antibiotics for 40 days. After remission, ciclosporin A was administered for 236 days and then discontinued. Eosinophilia also resolved after treatment with ciclosporin A. The cat is still alive and in good condition on day 689. This report describes what may be an atypical case of feline gastrointestinal eosinophilic sclerosing fibroplasia, lacking involvement of the gastrointestinal tract, and was apparently cured by treatment that involved ciclosporin A.

Abstract
A 14-year-old intact male West Highland White Terrier weighing 6.9 kg was admitted to the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology Animal Medical Center with the complaint of syncope after showing signs of nausea
during feeding. Sinus arrest induced by deglutition was confirmed using a Holter electrocardiography test. However, the clinical symptoms significantly improved after implantation of a permanent pacemaker. Seven months
after implantation, the dog died from acute pancreatitis, a cause unrelated to the syncope. Immediately after its death, the heart, lungs, gastrointestinal tract, and other organs were dissected and examined
histopathologically. The brain was also examined using magnetic resonance imaging. Examination results led to the diagnosis of swallowing-induced situational syncope.

Abstract
CASE SUMMARY A 13-month-old, female, mixed breed, 4.0 kg cat was referred with a 6 month history of decreased appetite, loss of vigour and intermittent vomiting. Physical examination revealed no cyanosis or wasting, and no audible heart murmur was auscultated. Blood profile revealed mild anaemia and mildly elevated postprandial serum ammonia (109 µg/dl). Abdominal ultrasonography revealed dilation of an intrahepatic portal vein branch and an intrahepatic aneurysm, with splenomegaly and ascites. Hepatic arteriovenous fistula/hepatic artery-portal vein fistula with multiple acquired portosystemic shunts was strongly suspected. Medical control was achieved using antibiotics, liver-protecting agents, a low-protein diet and blood transfusions. However, because medical treatment proved ineffective, coil embolisation was performed on day 11, using a hybrid approach via the mesenteric vein. Subsequent follow-up showed good appetite, with no signs of diarrhoea or ascites. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed that the mosaic pattern around the site of coil placement in the portal vein branch had improved and pulsatility had disappeared. RELEVANCE AND NOVEL INFORMATION Intrahepatic arterioportal fistula involves a circulatory shunt between the hepatic artery and the hepatic or portal vein within the liver, and may be congenital or acquired. Both forms have been reported in humans, but most cases in cats have been congenital. Few reports have described treatment methods or prognosis in cats. We report here that coil embolisation using a hybrid approach is a procedure offering easy, effective treatment by blocking hepatofugal blood flow.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Open total gastrectomy carries a high risk of surgical-site infection (SSI). This study evaluated the non-inferiority of antimicrobial prophylaxis for 24 compared with 72 h after open total gastrectomy. METHODS An open-label, randomized, non-inferiority study was conducted at 57 institutions in Japan. Eligible patients were those who underwent open total gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Patients were assigned randomly to continued use of β-lactamase inhibitor for either 24 or 72 h after surgery. The primary endpoint was the incidence of SSI, with non-inferiority based on a margin of 9 percentage points and a 90 per cent c.i. The secondary endpoint was the incidence of remote infection. RESULTS A total of 464 patients (24 h prophylaxis, 228; 72 h prophylaxis, 236) were analysed. SSI occurred in 20 patients (8·8 per cent) in the 24-h prophylaxis group and 26 (11·0 per cent) in the 72-h group (absolute difference -2·2 (90 per cent c.i. -6·8 to 2·4) per cent; P < 0·001 for non-inferiority). However, the incidence of remote infection was significantly higher in the 24-h prophylaxis group. CONCLUSION Antimicrobial prophylaxis for 24 h after total gastrectomy is not inferior to 72 h prophylaxis for prevention of SSI. Shortened antimicrobial prophylaxis might increase the incidence of remote infection. Registration number: UMIN000001062 ( http://www.umin.ac.jp).

Abstract
The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of postural change on
transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) views and parameters of interest anesthesia
monitoring in healthy dogs. Twelve Beagle dogs were anesthetized and randomly positioned
in one of four postures: right lateral-recumbency, left lateral-recumbency, supine
position and prone position. After examinations in one posture, the same examination was
demonstrated in another posture and repeated in all postures. In each posture, several
standard TEE views were demonstrated: longitudinal cranial-esophageal aorta
long-axis-view, transverse middle-esophageal mitral valve long-axis-view and transgastric
middle short-axis-view. Additionally, echocardiographic parameters were attempted to
measure, and direct blood pressure monitoring was performed in each view. As a result,
oriented views, except for transgastric middle short-axis-view, could be obtained in all
postures. Stroke volume and peak early diastolic velocity of mitral inflow were lower in
supine position compared with those in right and left lateral-recumbency. Heart rate (HR)
and systemic vascular resistance were higher in supine position compared with those in
right and left lateral-recumbency. Left ventricular pre-ejection period/left ventricular
ejection time corrected and uncorrected by HR were higher in supine position compared with
those in right and left lateral-recumbency. In conclusion, longitudinal cranial-esophageal
aorta long-axis-view and transverse middle-esophageal mitral valve long-axis-view provide
useful information of interest anesthesia monitoring, because of their views enable to
certainly obtain TEE parameters in various postures. Furthermore, TEE parameters allow to
detect the changes of preload, afterload and HR that occur in supine position dogs.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the potential effects of sildenafil on pulmonary hypertension (PH) in the monocrotaline (MCT)-induced PH rat. Twenty-four, 12-week-old, male Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with MCT or saline solution. After injection of MCT, rats received oral sildenafil immediately (early-phase treatment group: E group), 4 weeks after injection (late-phase treatment group: L group) or no treatment (MCT group) until 6 weeks after injection. Serial echocardiography and right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) measurements via a cardiac catheter were performed. RVSP was reduced in the E and L groups compared with the MCT group. Echocardiography indicated that sildenafil therapy prevents an increase in RVSP and preserves diastolic function, and this effect is not dependent on timing of initiation of therapy.

Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the preventive effect of sildenafil treatment on pulmonary hypertension (PH) induced by monocrotaline (MCT) in rats. Fifty-four 12-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with MCT or saline solution (MCT-injected rats: n=36; saline: n=18). Serial echocardiography and right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) measurements via a cardiac catheter were performed at 2, 4 and 6 weeks after the injection. After injection of MCT, rats received oral sildenafil (MCT/sildenafil group: n=18) or no treatment (MCT group: n=18) until undergoing echocardiography and cardiac catheterization. RVSP in the MCT/sildenafil group was lower than that in the MCT group at 4 (P<0.001) and 6 weeks (P<0.001). The septal curvature was improved in the MCT/sildenafil group compared with the MCT group. This finding showed that sildenafil prevented flattening of the interventricular septum because of right ventricular pressure overload. The ratio of peak trans-tricuspid early diastolic wave velocity to active filling with atrial systolic velocity showed that sildenafil improved diastolic function. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion and tricuspid annular systolic velocity in the MCT/sildenafil group did not show preserved myocardial contraction after administration of sildenafil. Administration of sildenafil leads to a reduction in RVSP and improvement in cardiac function in rats with PH induced by MCT. The vasodilatory action of sildenafil improves right ventricular diastolic function, but the intrinsic, positive, inotropic effect of sildenafil is minimal.

Abstract
Examination of our necropsy records for the period 2005 to 2014 yielded 41 cases of the
endomyocardial form of restrictive cardiomyopathy among 327 cats with evidence of heart
disease, and here, we reviewed their epidemiological and clinical features. The medical
data obtained retrospectively included signalment, presenting complaints, findings of
physical examination, results of various diagnostic tests, methods of treatment and
survival times. Except for one Chinchilla Persian cat, all were domestic short-haired
cats. The mean age at death was 7.3 ± 4.5 years (median, 6 years; range, 4 months to 19
years), and males accounted for 61% (25/41) of the total. Dyspnea was the most common
clinical sign, being evident in 83% (35/41) of the cats. Hind limb paresis or paralysis
due to aortic thromboembolism was evident in 41% (17/41). Arrhythmias of atrial origin
were common. Echocardiography commonly revealed left atrial or biatrial enlargement with
severe endocardial thickening of the left ventricle. Most of the affected cats had a poor
outcome; the disease duration ranged from 1 to 977 days, and the median survival period
was 30 days.

Abstract
Feline morbillivirus (FmoPV) is a new virus species and its detection is important, since
correlation has been reported between FmoPV virus infection and tubulointerstitial
nephritis in cats. Here, we report a real-time reverse transcription (RT)-PCR system that
can detect the FmoPV L-gene sequence with more than 10-time higher sensitivity than a
conventional PCR system, resulting in detection of less than 10 copies of the template
DNA. The total FmoPV positive rate of urine samples from veterinary clinics and hospitals
in Japan was 15.1% (25/166) using this system. This study demonstrates usefulness of the
real-time RT-PCR system for detection of FmoPV for cat urine samples.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Closure of PDA can be associated with echocardiographic changes including deterioration of LV systolic function. Although PDA is commonly encountered in dogs, few comprehensive reports of echocardiographic changes in dogs with PDA closure are available. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the short-term echocardiographic changes observed after PDA closure in dogs using strain analysis. ANIMALS Seventeen client-owned dogs with left-to-right PDA. METHODS Echocardiographic evaluations, including standard echocardiography and two-dimensional tissue tracking (2DTT), were performed before and within 3 days of PDA closure. RESULTS Preclosure examination showed LV and left atrial dilatation indicating volume overload as a result of PDA. Closure of PDA resulted in significant reduction of LVIDd (<.0001) and LA/Ao (0.01) without change in LVIDs, suggestive of decreased preload. Postclosure LV systolic dysfunction was observed with significant decreased in FS (<.0001) and strain values (P = .0039 for radial strains, P = .0005 for circumferential strains). Additionally, significant LV dyssynchrony (P = .0162) was observed after closure of PDA. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE Closure of PDA resulted in decreased preload as a result of alleviation of LV volume overload, which in turn caused transient deterioration of LV systolic function. Additionally, this study demonstrated that strain analysis is load dependent. Therefore, care should be taken when interpreting strain measurements as an indicator of LV systolic function.

Abstract
Pimobendan and SCH00013 are calcium sensitizers that possess dual action of calcium sensitization and phosphodiesterase-III inhibition. This study was conducted to comparatively evaluate the effect of these medications on the myocardial function of the canine pacing-induced heart failure model using echocardiography. Heart failure was induced in 20 dogs, to which pimobendan and two different doses of SCH00013 were administered orally to 15 dogs for 3 weeks, and the remaining 5 dogs served as the control. Cardiac evaluations were performed at baseline, week 1, week 2, and week 3. Significant thinning and dilation of the left ventricles, with systolic dysfunction, indicated by reduction of fractional shortening (FS) and strain values, were observed with a low dose of SCH00013. Whereas, although systolic dysfunction was observed with reduction of FS and radial strain, significant dilation and thinning of the left ventricles and reduction of circumferential strain were not observed with pimobendan. Pimobendan had a potent positive inotropic effect, with little effect on synchronicity, while low-dose SCH00013 had a weaker positive inotropic effect but was able to sustain synchronicity. Although, it failed to show significant statistical differences, the results of this study allow speculations that administration of pimobendan and SCH00013 may have differing effect on the myocardial function in the canine pacinginduced heart failure model.
