A prospective randomized study of efficacy of 2 treatment protocols in preventing recurrence of clinical signs in 51 male cats with obstructive idiopathic cystitis.
    Journal of veterinary internal medicine, 2019, Volume: 33, Issue:5

    Urethral obstruction (UO) is a common complication of feline idiopathic cystitis (FIC). Robust treatment recommendations to prevent its recurrence are scarce.. To evaluate meloxicam treatment for prevention of clinical recrudescence in male cats with obstructive FIC.. Fifty-one client-owned cats.. Prospective, randomized clinical trial. Every male cat with FIC-associated UO was deemed eligible for the study and was recruited during hospitalization. After discharge, cats were treated with phenoxybenzamine and alprazolam for 2 weeks, with (24 cats) or without (27 cats) low-dose meloxicam (0.025 mg/kg/day PO) and monitored for 6 months.. Cumulative number (%) of cats with recurrent UO at 10 days, 1-, 2-, and 6-months after discharge was 1 (2%), 2 (4%), 4 (8%), and 8 (16%), respectively. Overall, 12 (24%) cats experienced signs of recurrent FIC within 6 months, with (8 cats) or without (4 cats) concurrent UO. No difference in the cumulative incidence of UO within 6 months was detected with addition of meloxicam (odds ratio [95% confidence interval], 0.63 [0.13-2.97]; P = .70). All cats were alive at 6 months.. No clinical benefit was detected with the addition of low-dose meloxicam to phenoxybenzamine and alprazolam treatment for 2 weeks after discharge. Nevertheless, this study was underpowered to identify potential differences, and its findings must be corroborated in larger studies.

Evaluation of meloxicam for the treatment of obstructive feline idiopathic cystitis.
    Journal of feline medicine and surgery, 2016, Volume: 18, Issue:11

    Objectives The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug meloxicam on the clinical course of obstructive idiopathic cystitis in cats in a placebo-controlled clinical study. Methods Thirty-seven cats with obstructive idiopathic cystitis were enrolled. Cats received supportive treatment and an indwelling transurethral catheter for 48 h. On days 0 and 1, all cats received buprenorphine 0.01 mg/kg subcutaneously every 8 h. On day 1, cats were randomly assigned to the meloxicam (n = 18) or placebo group (n = 19) and received meloxicam (0.1 mg/kg on day 1, 0.05 mg/kg on days 2-5) or placebo orally for five consecutive days. Cats were monitored by repeated physical examinations and urinalysis, and with a 5 day questionnaire filled in by the owners after discharge and a telephone interview 3 months after presentation. Parameters for evaluation of treatment success were the occurrence of recurrent urethral obstruction, results of physical examinations and questionnaires. Results Recurrent urethral obstruction occurred in 4/18 cats (22%) in the meloxicam group and 5/19 cats (26%) in the placebo group ( P = 1.000). General demeanour and pain on abdominal palpation during hospitalisation improved significantly in both groups ( P <0.001). After discharge, with regard to general demeanour, food intake and voiding behaviour, there were no significant differences within or between groups at different time points. Conclusions and relevance Orally administered meloxicam for 5 days did not influence the incidence of recurrent urethral obstruction and the recovery from clinical signs in cats with obstructive feline idiopathic cystitis. The persistence of clinical signs in most of the cats 1 week after initial presentation indicates that symptomatic treatment for a longer period of time is warranted.

[Changes in nitric oxide, prostaglandins and myeloperoxidase activity in acrolein-induced cystitis in rats].
    Investigacion clinica, 2009, Volume: 50, Issue:1

    To investigate the role of substance P (sP), nitric oxide (ON) and prostaglandins (PGs) in acrolein (ACR)-induced cystitis, we studied the changes induced by ACR on bladder inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and mieloperoxidase (MPO) activities, along with PGs and NO metabolites levels. Sprague-Dawley male rats received i.p. ACR (5 mg/Kg) plus one of the following treatments: Group 1: saline 0.10 mL/100g i.p.; Group 2: Win-51.708 (WIN) 25 mg/Kg i.p.; Group 3: S-metilisothiourea (MITU) 35 mg/Kg i.p.; Group 4: Rofecoxib(ROF) 20 mg/Kg o.p.; Group 5: Meloxicam(MEL) 25 mg/Kg i.p.; Group 6: combination MITU+MEL. ACR-induced mortality was partially prevented by WIN (NK1 antagonist) and MITU (iNOS inhibitor). Animals that survived after 24h of ACR exposure, had histological inflammatory changes in bladder along with increased MPO activity. There was augmentation of nitrates+nitrites and of PGs. WIN didn't prevent any of these effects. ROF and MEL (COX-2 inhibitors) partially protected against bladder inflammation; MITU pre-treatment was able to prevent these changes and those of NO metabolites levels. The MITU+MEL combination produced the highest protection against ACR-induced damage. These results suggest that NO produced via iNOS and PGs produced by COX-1/COX-2, have an important role in the pathogenesis of cystitis induced by ACR. ACR could stimulate iNOS and COX-1/COX-2, producing lymphocyte migration and increases of NO and PGs.

Eosinophilic cystitis in a female German wire-haired pointer.
    The Canadian veterinary journal = La revue veterinaire canadienne, 2007, Volume: 48, Issue:5

    A 7-month-old, intact female, German wire-haired pointer presented with a 3-week history of stranguria, pollakiuria, and dysuria that was nonresponsive to antibiotics. Two prior episodes of dysuria-stranguria appeared to respond to antibiotic therapy. Bladder wall biopsies revealed eosinophilic cystitis and the dog responded well to medical management.
