There is a growing demand for use of integrative medicine in veterinary clinical oncology.
Evidence-based research on using integrative medicine in veterinary clinical oncology is
scarce.
Translational research with animal models of human cancers is an opportunity to expand the knowledge of the etiopathogenesis of neoplasia and identify treatments.
Metabolomics research may provide the evidence-based research needed to accelerate the use of complementary and alternative medicine in both human and veterinary oncology.

KEY POINTS
Diabetic ketoacidosis, hyperglycemic hyperosmolar syndrome, hypoglycemia, insulinoma, hypoadrenocorticism, pheochromocytoma, thyrotoxicosis, and myxedema coma are all examples of life-threatening complications of endocrine disease.
Success in treatment of endocrine emergencies is contingent on early recognition and treatment.
Many endocrine diseases presenting emergently have nonspecific signs and symptoms. Endocrine crises are often precipitated by concurrent disease, further making early identification difficult.
This article reviews the incidence, etiology, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of mammary tumors in cats.
The concept of an equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) was first proposed in 2002. This concept has developed over time, and EMS was recently described in a consensus statement released by the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine. In human medicine, metabolic syndrome (MetS) refers to a set of risk factors that predict the risk of cardiovascular disease, including obesity, glucose intolerance and insulin resistance (IR), dyslipidemia, microalbuminuria, and hypertension. EMS shares some of the features of MetS, including increased adiposity, hyperinsulinemia, IR, but differs in that laminitis is the primary disease of interest.
