<b>Retrospective evaluation of short- and medium-term therapeutic response to different immunosuppressive and dietary approaches in 148 dogs diagnosed with immunosuppressant-responsive enteropathy</b>
Most dogs showed favorable clinical outcomes, although a subset did not respond to treatment at short- and medium-term follow-up. Most deaths or euthanasia occurred within 1 month of diagnosis. The therapeutic response was not influenced by the type of immunosuppressive protocol, but rather by the presence of hypoalbuminemia, hypocobalaminemia, and the need for a home-cooked restricted-fat diet.
