Use of GnRH Agonist in Dogs Affected with Leishmaniosis

Clinical Applications of GnRH Agonist Deslorelin in Dogs and Cats

The potent GnRH agonist deslorelin, formulated in a low dose, slow-release implant, is commercially available in many countries and its use is increasingly becoming more common in small animal reproduction practice. Although approved only for long-acting reversible contraception and in the control of androgen-related disorders in male dogs, deslorelin (Suprelorin®) has been used off-label in va...

Microdose GnRH Agonist Flare-Up versus Ultrashort GnRH Agonist Combined with Fixed GnRH Antagonist in Poor Responders of Assisted Reproductive Techniques Cycles

Leishmaniosis (Leishmania infantum infection) in dogs.

The authors present an overview of canine leishmaniosis due to Leishmania infantum. This protozoan is transmitted by sandflies and the disease is frequently characterised by chronic evolution. Cutaneous and visceral clinical signs appear as the infection progresses. Lymph node enlargement, emaciation and skin lesions are the main signs observed in the classical forms of the disease. Control is ...

Use of GnRH agonist before hysterectomy: a cost simulation.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the potential savings in cost of care derived from performing vaginal hysterectomies instead of abdominal hysterectomies in selected women with fibroid uteri equivalent in size to a 14-18 week gestation. METHODS Women 35-46 years of age undergoing hysterectomy for fibroid uteri were selected to allow application of conversion rates gained in a separate randomized study u...

GnRH agonist and GnRH antagonist in intracytoplasmic injection cycles.

The long agonistic protocol for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) is effective and used most often, thus is considered the gold standard. Therefore any new regimen has to be compared in its results with those obtained with the long protocol. This report compares the efficacy of GnRH agonist and antagonist in a retrospective study of IVF/ICSI carried out in a tertiary teaching hospital f...
