KEY FACTS Canine Pyothorax : Clinical Presentation , Diagnosis , and Treatment

Clinical presentation of canine pyothorax can be delayed and nonspecific. Fever, dyspnea, and weight loss are the most common physical examination findings. Diagnosis is made with radiographic findings and analysis of aspirated pleural fluid. Pleural infections have a high prevalence of polymicrobic infections.

Management, presentation and interpretation of genome scans using GSCANDB

MOTIVATION Advances in high-throughput genotyping have made it possible to carry out genome-wide association studies using very high densities of genetic markers. This has led to the problem of the storage, management, quality control, presentation and interpretation of results. In order to achieve a successful outcome, it may be necessary to analyse the data in different ways and compare the r...
