Cat (Felis catus) — Glomerulonephritis (hereditary; OMIA-verified species predisposition)

Source: first-hand OMIA (University of Sydney) species-specific hereditary-disorder record, saved verbatim to source_file; every claim below is a C1 byte-substring of it.

Claims

  • Species: Cat (Felis catus)
  • Disorder: Glomerulonephritis
  • Clin feat: Presents as nephrotic syndrome: progressive proteinuria, hypoproteinaemia (hypoalbuminaemia), hypercholesteraemia, edema, and/or effusion (White et al., 2008). Progressive clinical signs include weight loss, weakness, depression, anorexia, polydipsia, polyuria, nocturia as well as dehydration, subcutaneous edema, nonregenerative anemia, metabolic acidosis, oral and gastric ulcerations, and secondary renal hyperparathyroidism (Krakowka, 1978).
