A retrospective review of great ape cardiovascular disease epidemiology and pathology (2018)
Journal Article
Strong, V. J., Martin, M., Redrobe, S., White, K., & Baiker, K. (2018). A retrospective review of great ape cardiovascular disease epidemiology and pathology. International Zoo Yearbook, 52(1), 113-125. https://doi.org/10.1111/izy.12193

Cardiovascular disease is associated with significant mortality in zoo-housed great apes and yet little is know about its epidemiology and aetiopathogenesis, and therefore its diagnosis, treatment and prevention. In this retrospective study, the fre... Read More about A retrospective review of great ape cardiovascular disease epidemiology and pathology.

Gainfully employing descending controls in acute and chronic pain management (2018)
Journal Article
White, K., Targett, M., & Harris, J. (2018). Gainfully employing descending controls in acute and chronic pain management. Veterinary Journal, 237, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2018.05.005

Specific primary afferent fibres termed nociceptors are responsible for transmitting nociceptive information. Centrally the axonal terminals of these fibres synapse with secondary projection neurones in the spinal dorsal horn to transmit nociceptive...
