Top Endocrine Publications of 2011: Canine Diabetes Mellitus


Cataract in a diabetic dog

In my fifth compilation of the canine and feline endocrine publications of 2011, I’m moving on to the theme of canine diabetes mellitus.

Listed below are 26 research papers written in 2011 that deal with a variety of topics and issues related to the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of diabetes mellitus in dogs.

These range from the studies of the pathogenesis of diabetic cataracts (1) to use of continuous glucose monitoring systems (2, 11, 25); from a survey of owner experiences in managing diabetic dogs (3) to gestational diabetes (4, 12, 24); from a study on the effect of diabetes on the structural arrangement of the cardiac collagen fibers (5) to the effect of obesity on glucose tolerance (7, 21, 22).

Other studies include evaluation of IGF-1 levels in diabetic dogs (8) to the effect of hematocrit on glucometer results (15);  from proinsulin autoantibodies (9) to insulin resistance (21, 22, 26); and finally, from studies of the insulin analogues glargine and detemir in dogs (13, 18) to the causes of secondary diabetes (23).
