DOI: 10.1111/jvim.15774
Abstract: Abstract Background Heart murmurs are detected commonly in apparently healthy cats during routine physical examination, and Doppler echocardiography ultimately is required to identify the source of flow turbulence causing the murmur. However, in some cases,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jvim.16648
Abstract: Abstract Background Pheochromocytoma (PCC) is rare in cats and plasma (PL) and urinary (U) metanephrines (metanephrine [MN]; normetanephrine [NMN]) measurement is rarely described in cats. Objectives We evaluated the utility of PL and U MNs… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jvp.12717
Abstract: Clopidogrel response variability has been identified in cats. In humans, evidence suggests that variable clopidogrel active metabolite (CAM) generation is the primary explanation for clopidogrel response variability with differences in body weight, sex, and variable… read more here.
