概括
这项研究提供了犬类骨质疏松症 (OC) 的最新发病率,这是一种发育关节疾病. 大型和雄性狗面临更高的风险,OC经常导致安乐死.
科学领域:
- 兽医整形医学 兽医整形医学
- 狗类流行病学 狗类流行病学
- 发育骨科疾病 发育骨科疾病
背景情况:
- 骨质软骨症 (OC) 是一种常见的发育性骨科疾病,影响狗的内分泌骨化.
- 之前关于犬类OC的流行病学数据已经超过20年,因此需要更新的发病率估计.
- OC通常影响尾关节,导致,疼痛和可变的预后.
研究的目的:
- 提供附关节OC (AOC) 的基于人口的发病率和关节和关节OC的特定率.
- 为了确定AOC诊断时的年龄,抑制OC和状OC.
- 评估与品种和性别相关的OC风险因素,并分析受影响关节的先前和后续诊断.
主要方法:
- 在2011年至2016年期间,利用了超过60万只在Agria Djurförsäkring保险的瑞典大型犬种群.
- 每10,000个有风险的狗年,AOC,窒息性OC和状OC的计算发病率.
- 分析了AOC的狗的品种,性别,诊断时的年龄和同时发生/随后的诊断.
主要成果:
- AOC的发病率为每10,000只狗年有风险的3.77;窒息性OC为0.64和状OC为0.43.
- 大型和巨型品种的AOC风险增加,与雌性相比,雄性狗的风险也增加了 (RR 1.76).
- 诊断时的中位数年龄有所不同,性OC的诊断时间比AOC或性OC晚 (2.62年).
结论:
- 骨质软骨仍然是狗的重要骨科问题,特定的关节和人口统计数据具有更高的风险.
- 更新的流行病学数据对于了解疾病患病率和告知预防和治疗策略至关重要.
- OC被确定为受影响狗的安乐死的主要原因,突出其对犬的福利的影响.

Aging and its effect on bone remodeling is the most common cause of bone disorders. In young and healthy people, bone deposition and resorption happen at an equal rate to maintain optimal bone health.
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Gregor Mendel's work (1822 - 1884) was primarily focused on pea plants. Through his initial experiments, he determined that every gene in a diploid cell has two variants called alleles inherited from each parent. He suggested that amongst these two alleles, one allele is dominant in character and the other recessive. The combination of alleles determines the phenotype of a gene in an organism.
