TL;DR: No decline in renal excretory function was observed when meloxicam was administered to cats with CKD, but gastrointestinal adverse effects were observed, and cats that receivedmeloxicam had greater proteinuria at 6 months than cats that receive placebo.

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of the IDEXX SediVue Dx® Urine Sediment Analyzer with manual microscopy for the detection of urinary casts was compared to the manual method.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated novel biomarkers of renal injury (urinary cystatin B and urinary clusterin) and renal function (serum creatinine and serum symmetric dimethylarginine), and urine protein to creatinINE ratio in dogs envenomated by V. berus.

TL;DR: Inosine and uCysB concentrations changed in all dogs immediately following a surgery under CPB and may indicate tubular injury and further studies are required to ascertain the usefulness of those biomarkers in early detection of AKI.

TL;DR: Care must be taken to assess the density of the CT images from critically ill patients before applying the automated neural network (test method), and almost perfect concordance for L3 muscle, VAT, SAT, and IMAT per DSC estimates, and Bland–Altman plots even after stratification by sex, race/ethnicity, and BMI categories.
