A commercial, lamb and rice, dog food with an omega-6:omega-3 fatty acid ratio of 5.5:1 was fed in a single-blinded, self-controlled clinical trial to 18 atopic dogs. The pruritus in 8 of these dogs (44.4%) was satisfactorily controlled within 7 to 21 d, returned within 3 to 14 d after the diet was withdrawn, and was again controlled when the diet was reinstated. Plasma and skin levels of examined fatty acids changed in all 18 dogs when their diet was switched to the test diet. Dogs responding to the test diet had a different pattern of fatty acid change as compared to the dogs which failed to respond to the diet, suggesting that there are subsets of atopic dogs with different fatty acid metabolism capabilities.
在一项单盲、自身对照临床试验中,给18只特应性犬喂食一种欧米伽6与欧米伽3脂肪酸比例为5.5:1的市售羊肉和大米狗粮。其中8只犬(44.4%)的瘙痒在7至21天内得到满意控制,停喂该日粮后3至14天复发,重新喂食后瘙痒再次得到控制。当所有18只犬的日粮换为试验日粮时,所检测脂肪酸的血浆和皮肤水平均发生了变化。与未对日粮产生反应的犬相比,对试验日粮有反应的犬的脂肪酸变化模式不同,这表明特应性犬存在具有不同脂肪酸代谢能力的亚组。
