In vitro evaluation of bactericidal effects of fluorescent light energy on Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and S.  aureus
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: While clinical success is reported when using FLE to treat Staphylococcus infections in animals, no in vitro antibacterial efficacy was identified for S. pseudintermedius or S. aureus under experimental conditions. The clinical success observed with FLE may be the result of a more complex in vivo response.PMID:38177510 | DOI:10.1111/vde.13235 (Source: Veterinary Dermatology)

Longitudinal pilot study examining the effect of punch biopsy on equine sarcoid growth dynamics
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Our results indicate that post-biopsy lesion deterioration is not a general concept that applies to all sarcoids, and both deterioration or improvement are possible outcomes over a 24-week period. Further clinical studies with a larger sample size are needed before a definitive conclusion can be made.PMID:38168049 | DOI:10.1111/vde.13236 (Source: Veterinary Dermatology)

Alopecia X in a cloned Pomeranian dog
Vet Dermatol. 2024 Jan 2. doi: 10.1111/vde.13234. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA two-year-old Pomeranian dog with Alopecia X was cloned after accidental death. Despite earlier castration, the cloned animal developed the same lesions of Alopecia X at the same age. This observation suggests that the disease is due to genetically programmed hair cycle arrest without strong environmental influences.PMID:38169070 | DOI:10.1111/vde.13234 (Source: Veterinary Dermatology)

A single-blind randomised study comparing the efficacy of fluconazole and itraconazole for the treatment of Malassezia dermatitis in client-owned dogs
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This study indicates that 5FZ and 10FZ are as effective as itraconazole in canine Malassezia dermatitis.PMID:38169074 | DOI:10.1111/vde.13233 (Source: Veterinary Dermatology)

A pilot study of antimicrobial effects and ototoxicity of a Norway spruce (Picea abies) resin-based canine otic rinse product
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The product may be an option in supportive care of COE because of antimicrobial effects and lack of ototoxic properties in a guinea pig model.PMID:38169122 | DOI:10.1111/vde.13229 (Source: Veterinary Dermatology)

Characterisation of the pruritus responses and pruritic behaviours in an interleukin 31-induced canine model of pruritus
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: In conclusion, intravenous IL-31 reproducibly induces itch responses in dogs. Future evaluations of the canine IL-31 pruritic model should assess total pruritic behaviours in seconds rather than using a biased 'YES/NO' behaviour per 1 min scoring system.PMID:38149639 | DOI:10.1111/vde.13231 (Source: Veterinary Dermatology)
