association between the signalment, common causes of canine otitis externa and pathogens

Objective: To determine whether associations exist between pathogens, allergies, conformational abnormalities, endocrinopathies and signalment in canine otitis externa (OE). Methods: Medical records of 149 dogs which met predetermined inclusion criteria were evaluated retrospectively. Correlations b...

Zusammenfassung:	Objective: To determine whether associations exist between pathogens, allergies, conformational abnormalities, endocrinopathies and signalment in canine otitis externa (OE). Methods: Medical records of 149 dogs which met predetermined inclusion criteria were evaluated retrospectively. Correlations between pathogens and the presence of allergy, endocrinopathy, conformational abnormalities and signalment were evaluated statistically. Results: The shar-pei, German shepherd and cocker spaniel breeds were over-represented compared with the hospital's breed distribution (P
