Snippet: In conclusion, the prevalence of HA amongst dogs with chronic GIS is considerable. No differentiation between HA and other causes leading to chronic GIS is possible based on history, physical examination or baseline blood work. Determination of basal serum cortisol concentration should be performed as a screening test for HA, followed by an ACTHST in suspicious cases. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) is associated with decreased production.....
Document: In conclusion, the prevalence of HA amongst dogs with chronic GIS is considerable. No differentiation between HA and other causes leading to chronic GIS is possible based on history, physical examination or baseline blood work. Determination of basal serum cortisol concentration should be performed as a screening test for HA, followed by an ACTHST in suspicious cases. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) is associated with decreased production of intrinsic factor (IF) in dogs and cats. Since IF is required for cobalamin (CBL) absorption in the ileum, CBL deficiency is a prevalent sequel to EPI in dogs and is associated with a negative prognosis.
