The article is a review article (at least it gives references, which I'll check out later when I can get behind the paywall), and it cites promising, but unpublished, data from Dr. Dodds' own research.
I'm more hopeful than I was, but I'm still not 100% convinced. I would like to see the data published in a prestigious journal. Overall, I would rate this as promising, but not proven. Many, many thanks to Dr. Dodds for making this paper available for perusal. If anyone else wants to read it, send Gail (gemy) or me a private message. |
Yeah I figured you would say that - about AHVMA cause that is kind of what I thought too. I have not gone through the article in detail - and I will humbly try to get to the referenced research - but not holding my breath as so much is always behind pay firewalls.
I too thank Dr Dodds for her quick response and will wait 24-36 hours before I inquire as to her publishing in say JAVMA.
