Résumé
The 2nd edition of the BSAVA manual of Canine and Feline Nephrology and Urology, is an excellent manual on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the urinary system of dogs and cats. This edition has been published 10 years after the 1st edition, and in addition to bringing all the material up-to-date, this edition introduces chapters on staging chronic kidney disease, measurement of blood pressure, cystoscopy, lithotripsy, dialysis, and glomerulonephritis. These additions have been made because of advances in the past 10 y that have highlighted the recognition of the importance of proteinuria in the progression of chronic renal failure. During this time, blood pressure monitoring has become more available in veterinary practices, and while cystoscopy, lithotripsy, and dialysis are not available at most veterinary practices, these techniques have been refined at referral centers. Knowledge of these techniques is valuable to general practitioners in order to know what options are available, and be able to select appropriate cases for referral. The chapters in the book cover the important aspects of nephrology and urology, including clinical signs, diagnostic techniques, advanced therapeutic techniques, and management of specific conditions. The chapters on clinical signs include dysuria, hematuria, polyuria/polydipsia, incontinence, and urine retention. Diagnostic techniques chapters include renal palpation, urinalysis, assessment of renal function, diagnostic imaging, renal biopsy, blood pressure measurement, and cystoscopy. There are 2 chapters on advanced therapeutic techniques: lithotripsy, and peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis. The chapters covering management of specific conditions include acute renal failure, chronic renal failure, glomerulonephritis, prostatic diseases, urolithiasis, nonobstructive idiopathic/interstitial cystitis in cats, and urinary tract infections. The text is arranged in prose format with chapters authored by 26 international experts in the field of nephrology and urology. The many headings and subheadings in each chapter makes it easy to find particular topics rapidly. The index is only 8 pages long, but it is comprehensive enough that it is effective and easy to use. The book is well illustrated with almost all the photographs and figures appearing in color. Even most of the drawings are in color. In fact, only radiographic images, ultrasonographic images, and the occasional line drawing are in black and white. In the chapter on urinalysis, the many color photographs of urine sediment are particularly helpful in differentiating crystals, casts, cells, and various organisms. There are many tables in the text, including flow charts, tables of differential diagnoses, and tables of drugs with mechanisms of action and side effects compared. These tables are set off in pale blue to make them stand out easily from the rest of the text. The strengths of this book include its short prose chapters that provide a good overview of the topics covered. It provides an excellent update of advances in the field of small animal nephrology and urology in the last 10 years, without presenting intimidating volumes of detail. The color photographs, figures, and tables are plentiful and helpful in clearly illustrating the points presented in the text. The only drawback to this book is that its format may not be what is sought by all readers. This book is not intended as an exhaustive textbook on nephrology and urology, nor is it intended to be a quick reference manual with text in bulleted form. Instead, it is a comprehensive manual in prose format designed for fairly rapid retrieval of information, while still providing a good understanding of disease processes, and diagnostic and therapeutic options. It is not intended to provide a detailed review of the research literature, although the facts presented and key studies are well referenced for those readers who choose to research the subject in more depth. This book is particularly helpful for general practitioners and veterinary students seeking a good overview of the current state of knowledge in the field of small animal nephrology and urology. The chapters are short enough that they are easily absorbed at one sitting, and detailed enough that the main points on the subject are adequately covered.

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
