Snippet: Sixty six cats previously diagnosed with HCM at two referral hospitals were included retrospectively. Inclusion criteria were a diagnosis of HCM by a cardiology diplomate based on a left ventricular wall thickness in diastole > 6mm by echocardiography. Hypertension (BP>150 mmHg), hyperthyroidism (serum TT4) and other causes of LVH such as aortic stenosis were excluded. Cats were considered nonâ€diabetic based on normal blood glucose and/or fruct.....
Document: Sixty six cats previously diagnosed with HCM at two referral hospitals were included retrospectively. Inclusion criteria were a diagnosis of HCM by a cardiology diplomate based on a left ventricular wall thickness in diastole > 6mm by echocardiography. Hypertension (BP>150 mmHg), hyperthyroidism (serum TT4) and other causes of LVH such as aortic stenosis were excluded. Cats were considered nonâ€diabetic based on normal blood glucose and/or fructosamine concentration or absence of glycosuria. Serum IGFâ€1 concentration was measured in duplicate on residual samples frozen at â€80oC for a maximum of 5 years using a validated radioimmunoassay; HS was defined as a mean IGFâ€1 concentration of > 1000ng/ml (positive predictive value for HS 95%).
