چکیده

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to establish ophthalmic parameters in the Pomeranian dog breed. Schirmer tear test (STT), breakup time (TBUTT), Jones (JT), aesthesiometry, biomicroscopy, tonometry, non-contact specular microscopy (SM), ophthalmoscopy and ultrasonography (US) were carried out 48 eyes 24 male female dogs from a breeding kennel. Descriptive statistics applied for data analysis. Means standard errors found STT, TBUT, JT, esthesiometry tonometry 24.310±0.448mm/min, 14.570±0.406s., 8.420±1.571min, 3.667±0.157cm 17.960±0.697mmHg, respectively. For 43.75% presented caruncle trichiasis, 25% chromodacryorrhea, medial entropion 10,42% distichiasis. SM showed endothelial cells density 1958.285±36.760 cells/mm². hexagonality, area central corneal thickness 62.229±2.183%, 519.231±9.853mm², 0.567±0.006mm, Ophthalmoscopy pattern described other breeds. Amelanotic fundus reported 8.33% eyes. US means axial length eyeball, lens thickness, anterior vitreous chamber depth 16.859±0.148mm, 6.651±0.081mm, 2.673±0.091mm 7.485±0.101mm. Mild changes lacrimal evaluation influenced by eyelid STT type I. Increased sensitivity observed

Familial Congenital Methemoglobinemia in Pomeranian Dogs Caused by a Missense Variant in the NADH‐Cytochrome B5 Reductase Gene

BACKGROUND In veterinary medicine, congenital methemoglobinemia associated with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)-cytochrome b5 reductase (b5R) deficiency is rare. It has been reported in several breeds of dogs, but little information is available about its etiology. OBJECTIVES To analyze the NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase gene, CYB5R3, in a Pomeranian dog family with methemoglobinemia s...
