对101只有急性胃扩张扭转(GDV)发作的犬(即病例犬)和101只有非GDV相关问题的狗(即对照犬)进行了研究。对照犬按品种、大小和年龄分别与病例犬相匹配。显著(p<0.10)增加狗的GDV风险的易感因素是男性、体重过轻、每天只吃一顿饭、吃得很快和脾气暴躁。显著降低GDV风险的易感因素是“快乐”的性情,以及在主要由干狗粮组成的日常饮食中加入餐桌食物。导致GDV急性发作的唯一因素似乎是压力。
A study was conducted of 101 dogs (i.e., case dogs) that had acute episodes of gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV) and 101 dogs (i.e., control dogs) with nonGDV-related problems. The control dogs were matched individually to case dogs by breed or size, and age. Predisposing factors that significantly (p less than 0.10) increased a dog's risk of GDV were male gender, being underweight, eating one meal daily, eating rapidly, and a fearful temperament. Predisposing factors that decreased the risk of GDV significantly were a ''happy'' temperament and inclusion of table foods in a usual diet consisting primarily of dry dog food. The only factor that appeared to precipitate an acute episode of GDV was stress.
