Dear Friends and colleagues, We are very happy to welcome you to Valencia, “The City of Light and Flowers” for this 26th Annual Congress of the European Society and College of Veterinary Dermatology. As for previous European dermatology congresses, the Scientifi c Organizing Committee has organized two separate lecture tracks: the Continuing Education Program (which is to be simultaneously interpreted from English to Spanish) has lectures on the diagnosis and treatment of the main alopecic and pruritic dermatoses while the Advanced Program was set with high level lectures about the skin barrier, topical therapy, itch and autoimmune skin diseases. As for the 2011 congress, we have reserved a third room for expanded oral and poster short communication theme-based sessions. The Local Organizing Committee chose the city of Valencia because of its luminosity and strategic situation next to the Mediterranean Sea. This location provides all of us, clinicians and scientists alike, with the possibility to expand beyond veterinary dermatology to meet an ancient culture, to be exposed to the sun (hopefully) and to taste the wonderfully famous local gastronomy. Valencia is located in the central area of the Spanish Mediterranean coast, and it was funded as a Roman colony in 138 BC. Valencia was an important “Muslim Taifas Kingdom” since the 8th century; it became a Christian city after the 13th century. In the 15th century, Valencia became a commercial Empire and wonderful civil buildings, such as “La Lonja of the Silk” were built then. The Old Town can be visited using our tramway, or by walking around the old Wall. In that area, you will fi nd the main historic buildings, such as the Cathedral and the Los Serranos bridge and tower. Not only do we have historic monuments, but the modern architecture of the “City of Arts and Sciences”, designed by Santiago Calatrava, might surprise you as well. As you already know, Valencia is internationally known because of “The Paella”, the most representative dish of the Spanish gastronomy. What you may not know, however, is that the paella made with rice, fi sh and seafood (the so-called “Paella Marinera”) is not the authentic “Paella Valenciana”. We invite you to try our authentic typical paella, which is made with rice from “la Albufera”, chicken meat, snails, fresh vegetables and legumes; it is found in the old Valencia center neighborhood “Barrio del Carmen”. You might also wish to taste the other local dishes of “Fideuá” and “Arroz Negre” (black rice cooked in squid ink). If you would like to try a local refreshing beverage, ask for a very cold “Horchata”. If you would rather have something stronger, try the “Mistela-Moscatel” wine or the “Agua de Valencia” cocktail made with Cava, triple sec liqueur and orange juice. It will be a pleasure to meet all of you at the Valencia Conference Centre, which seems to have been specifi cally designed to suit the needs of the Annual ESVD-ECVD Congress by Sir Norman Foster. We would like to thank all our sponsors for their support and their involvement and collaboration to help organize this meeting that is being awaited with high expectation by many veterinarians in Europe. Finally, we would like to thank our congress organizer, Pauwels Congress Organisers (PCO) from Maastricht, The Netherlands, for the quality of their management skills and the professionalism of their staff. We hope that this congress will fulfi ll your expectations, both scientifi cally but also socially.

Pruritus is the most frequently described symptom in dermatology and can significantly impair the patient’s quality of life. In 10–50% of adults with persistent pruritus, it can be an important dermatologic clue for the presence of a significant underlying systemic disease such as renal insufficiency, cholestasis, hematologic disorder, or malignancy (Etter and Myers, 2002; Zirwas and Seraly, 2001). This review describes the presence of pruritus in different systemic diseases. It is quite important to discover the cause of pruritus for providing relief for the patients experiencing substantial morbidity caused by this condition. 1. Pruritus Endocrinal Disorders.

WILKINSON, AND R. E. MILLER Department of Pathology, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Tennessee,Knoxville, TN (LM, JWK, JEW); and Department of Animal Health, St. Louis Zoological Park, St. Louis, MO (REM) Abstract. The histopathology, clinical presentation, and epidemiology of a cutaneous and oral mucosal disease affecting 40 black rhinoceroses (Diceros bicomis) at 21 zoological parks (50% of the captive US population) were investigated. Twenty-seven biopsies were examined from recent lesions, and clinical infor- mation was available from 127 episodes.The cutaneous lesions began as plaques that progressedto vesicles, bullae, or ulcers. Lesions waxed and waned in individual cases.Lesions were predominantly bilaterally sym- metrical, affecting pressurepoints, coronary bands, tips of the ears and tail, and along the lateral body wall and dorsum. Oral lesions were first noticed as ulcers and were present on the lateral margins of the tongue, palate, and mucocutaneousjunctions of the lips. All recent lesions had similar histopathologic findings of prominent acanthosis,hydropic degenerationof keratinocytes in the stratum spinosum,spongiosis, intraepithelial vesicles, and parakeratosiswithout dermal inflammation. Chronic lesions were ulcerated. No pathogens were identified by culture or electron microscopy. Most episodescoincided with stressevents

  • A Retrospective Study of Idiopathic Ulcerative Dermatitis in Mice with a C57BL/6 Background
    Journal of the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science Vol 45, No 6 Copyright 2006 November 2006 by the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science Pages 8-12 Reports A Retrospective Study of Idiopathic Ulcerative Dermatitis in Mice with a C57BL/6 Background Robin J Kastenmayer,* Michele A Fain, and Kathy A Perdue Idiopathic ulcerative dermatitis is a well-recognized disease in C57BL mice and related strains. This disease manifests as a pruritic dermatitis with resulting self-mutilation, dermal ulceration, necrosis, and fibrosis. Ulcerative dermatitis has the ability to confound ongoing research by causing systemic pathologic changes, such as lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly. Although various treatments have been described, none has been curative consistently; therefore, minimizing negative effects on research through prevention of disease is ideal. To identify etiologic factors, we conducted a 2-y retrospective study of 1352 mice with a C57BL/6 genetic background; these mice demonstrated an overall prevalence of 4.1% and a seasonal effect with a peak incidence during midsummer. Corroborating previous studies, our study revealed a disease predilection for female mice. In contrast to prior reports, the disease prevalence was greatest in 10- to 16-mo-old mice. In addition, mice with a C57BL/6 background that were deficient in the gene for inducible nitric oxide synthase had a 50% disease incidence, suggesting a potential animal model for further characterizing the pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of ulcerative dermatitis. Abbreviations: iNOS, inducible nitric oxide synthase; UD, ulcerative dermatitis Idiopathic ulcerative dermatitis (UD) with pruritus is a Allentown, NJ) with corncob bedding (Harlan Teklad, Madison, common condition in C57BL mice, especially C57BL/6J mice.

  • Ulcerative Dermatitis in C57BL/6 Mice
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Jennifer L. Sargent for the degree of Master of Science in Veterinary Science presented on June 2, 2015 Title: Ulcerative Dermatitis in C57BL/6 Mice Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________________________________ Helen E. Diggs Abstract Ulcerative dermatitis (UD) is a common condition in C57BL/6 mice that is poorly understood and challenging to treat. Inconsistently there have been reports of an increased incidence of the disease in female mice, mice exposed to certain diets, mice of advanced age, and in several seasons. These inconsistencies indicated a need for a systematic review to better assess the evidence for commonly cited UD risk factors and treatments. The aims for the systematic review were to assess the quality of evidence for both: 1) commonly cited risk factors for UD, specifically sex, age, season, and diet; and 2) reported UD treatments. A search of three electronic databases was performed and articles were evaluated using previously published criteria for assessing methodological quality. Dietary factors, particularly caloric restriction, appear to have an effect on UD risk. Female sex was associated with an increased risk of UD in some studies, particularly diet studies, but not in others. Also, UD was seen most commonly in mice between 14 and 24 months of age in the studies reviewed. The role of season was not assessed in any of the articles that met the inclusion criteria. Of the three publications that evaluated UD treatments only one had an untreated or alternative therapy control. Further research is needed to explore epidemiologic aspects of UD and to compare treatment options.
