THE VALUE OF CYTOLOGY IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF ENDOMETRITIS IN THE MARE - CORRELATIO...
Bessa de Carvalho, I; Conceição, S; Guimarães, H; Queiroga, Maria Cristina; Laranjo, M; Bettencourt, E; Lopes, J; Branco, SBackground Endometritis is a common cause of infertility in mares, and the presence of uterine inflammation can be determined by cytology or biopsy. Microbiological analyses and testing the sensitivity to antibiotics are important to maximise the therapy efficacy. Objective Our aim was to examine the relationship between the presence of inflammation and microbial growth, including its association to the presenc...
Cavitary Pulmonary Tuberculosis in an Infant
Branco, S; Nogueira Machado, S; Azevedo, I; Carvalho, I; Silva, STuberculosis (TB) continues to pose a significant health challenge globally and in Portugal. Diagnostic challenges persist, especially in infants, where TB often presents with atypical symptoms. A previously healthy three-month-old male infant from Vila Nova de Famalicão, Portugal, was admitted with cough, rhinorrhea, respiratory distress, and high-grade fever. After chest radiography and blood tests, he was tr...

Oliveira, PA; Medeiros, M; Branco, S; Faustino-Rocha, AIBackground: Mammary cancer is one of the most frequent cancers among women. Neoplasia are complex masses composed of both neoplastic and non-neoplastic cells, like vascular and lymphatic endothelial cells, adipocytes, mesenchymal cells, fibroblasts, myeloid and inflammatory cells (lymphocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, macrophages, and mast cells). This work aimed to evaluate the effects of ketotifen on the inf...

Nunes, J; Marques, M; Sterghite, D; Branco, S; Martins, Luís; Silva, M; Campos-Gonçalves, I; Souza, E; Filho, César; Craveiro, AlexandreBackground: Frequent dog consultations are due to skin wounds (Holland, 2019), with different trauma causes, like bites, burns and others. The majority of these wounds are not fatal, but cause long-lasting discomfort, demanding frequent medical care which may affect owners financially (Fahie & Shettko, 2007). Despite several pharmaceuticals available for dog wound treatment, new antibiotic-free efficient option...
Cross Species Analysis and Comparison of Tumors in Dogs and Cats, by Age, Sex, ...
Pinello, K; Pires, I; Castro, AF; Carvalho, PT; Santos, A; de Matos, A; Queiroga, F; Canadas-Sousa, A; Dias-Pereira, P; Catarino, J; Faísca, PThe animal cancer burden is essential for the translational value of companion animals in comparative oncology. The present work aims to describe, analyze, and compare frequencies and associations of tumors in dogs and cats based on the Animal Cancer Registry created by Vet-OncoNet. With 9079 registries, regarding 2019 and 2020, 81% (n = 7355) belonged to dogs. In comparison, cats have a general one-year right ...
Vet-OncoNet: Malignancy Analysis of Neoplasms in Dogs and Cats
Pinello, K; Amorim, I; Pires, I; Canadas Sousa, A; Catarino, J; Faisca, P; Branco, S; Peleteiro, MC; Silva, D; Severo, M; Niza Ribeiro, JAnalysis of canine and feline tumor malignancy data can help clinicians identify high-risk patients and make more accurate decisions. Based on a sample of 16,272 cancer records, including 3266 cats and 13,006 dogs, collected from January 2019 to December 2021 in the Vet-OncoNet Network database, this study aimed to compare the tumor malignancy profile between cats and dogs, considering animal-related factors (s...

Stereological Estimation of Mean Nuclear Volume as a Prognostic Factor in Canin...
Casanova, M; Branco, S; Veiga, I; Faísca, PCutaneous mast cell tumour (MCT) Patnaik and Kiupel grading schemes rely on qualitative and semiquantitative features susceptible to interobserver variability. Stereological estimation of volume-weighted mean nuclear volume (MNV) provides information about both size and variability of nuclear size, which has been proven to have a prognostic value in other solid tumours. The objective was to compare MNV with MCT...
