Prevalence of Dog Erythrocyte Antigen 1 in 7, 414 Dogs in Italy
Full text linkThe study aim was to establish the prevalence of DEA 1, the most immunogenic and clinically important blood group in canine
blood transfusion, in 7,414 dogs from Italy. The potential sensitization risk following a first transfusion and the acute reaction
risk following a second transfusion given without a cross-matching and blood typing test were also calculated. Dogs tested were
purebred (4,798) and mongrel (2,616); 38.8% were DEA 1 negative and 61.2% were DEA 1 positive. High prevalence for DEA 1
positive blood type was found in Ariegeois and English Setter, whereas German Shepherd and Boxer had higher DEA 1 negative
blood type. Breeds with blood type never reported before included French Brittany Spaniel and Pug showing a high prevalence
of DEA 1 positive type, while French Bulldog and West Highland White Terrier were more often DEA 1 negative. Just 48.8% of
purebred and 13.9% of mongrel dogs were considered as prospective blood donors based upon their blood type.Most of the breeds
had a sensitization risk of 20.0–25.0%. Rottweiler and Ariegeois had less risk of sensitization (9.4 and 4.2%) and the minor risk of
an acute transfusional reaction (0.9–0.2%).The prevalence of DEA 1 positive and negative dogs in Italy agrees withmost of the data
already reported in the literature

Hemophilia A in a Belgian Shepherd Malinois dog: case report
Full text linkThis case report presents a Belgian Shepherd Malinois dog affected by hemophilia A recognized at the age of seven months. The clinical follow-up including all the diagnostic procedures leading to the final diagnosis and the course of this disorder are presented.
This is a typical proband case demonstrating the appearance of this genetic disease in a breed never involved by this coagulation disorder so far documented that started an intensive and laborious plan to reduce the incidence of hemophilia A and the further appearance of new cases

The guaiac-based fecal occult blood test in healthy dogs: Evaluation of the effects of diet, and the ability of the test to detect fecal occult blood
No full textBackground: The guaiac-based fecal occult blood test (gFOBt) has been used for human colorectal cancer screening. It can detect the fecal occult blood (FOB) in dogs after oral administration of 20 mg of hemoglobin/kg body weight of blood and is influenced by diet. Objectives: The aims were to evaluate the effect of diet and the ability of gFOBt to detect FOB in healthy dogs after oral administration of autologous blood. Methods: Five healthy dogs were fed Purina Hypoallergenic (HA) and Gastrointestinal (EN) diets. Feces were tested with gFOBt before starting diets and at each defecation (hereafter referred to as fecal collection event) throughout the study period. Every 4 days, increased doses of autologous blood were administered orally. The whole blood of one dog was progressively diluted with a saline solution, and dilutions were directly tested with the gFOBt, until a negative result was found. Results: Twelve of 185 (6.5%) gFOBt were found to be positive. No associations between diet and gFOBt positivity were found. A significant association was found between the fecal collection event and gFOBt positivity (P <.001) and between doses of blood and gFOBt positivity (P =.048). The lowest dilution ensuring all positive tests was 6.5 μgHgb/mL. Conclusions: The gFOBt was not influenced by either the HA or EN diets. The gFOBt positivity was associated with the dose of blood and the fecal collection event. However, caution is needed in the interpretation of results due to the lack of an association between gFOBt positivity and increasing doses of blood in the same dog
