A recent study explores the diagnostic potential of serum markers in distinguishing between healthy Tornjak dogs and those with hip dysplasia (CHD). Results reveal significant differences in hyaluronic acid (HA), procollagen II C-terminal propeptide (PIICP), and metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) levels between the two groups. These findings suggest that serum markers could serve as effective diagnostic tools for CHD in Tornjak dogs, aiding veterinarians in early detection and informed breeding decisions. This breed-specific research contributes valuable insights into managing and mitigating the impact of CHD in dogs.
