Extracted variables included age, sex, neuter status, breed, diet, urinalysis results and history of cystitis. Potential associations between these variables and HSC were estimated.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Controlling for other factors, young cats fed a dry diet had an increased likelihood of HSC relative to young cats fed a non-dry diet. However, as age increased, the likelihood of HSC declined for cats fed a dry diet and increased for cats fed a non-dry diet. Moreover, the odds of HSC were significantly greater when cats were unneutered (vs neutered; odds ratio [OR] 45.52) or had a thin (vs heavy) body condition (OR 23.81), diagnosis of cystitis (OR 2.84), urine protein concentration &gt;30 mg\/dl (OR 4.72), alkaline (vs neutral) urine pH (OR 3.34), pyuria (OR 23.67) or bacteriuria (OR 2.24).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions and relevance<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The present study provides estimates of the strengths of association between HSC and certain signalment and clinical characteristics of cats. This information could help clinicians to perform a more directed screening for struvite crystalluria in certain cat populations. Follow-up studies that build on the findings of this study could explore the clinical importance of HSC in cats.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1098612x18809176","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,5]],"date-time":"2018-11-05T04:35:41Z","timestamp":1541392541000},"page":"922-930","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Factors associated with hematuric struvite crystalluria in cats"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2895-8347","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chika C","family":"Okafor","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical and Diagnostic Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David L","family":"Pearl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Population Medicine, Ontario Veterinary College, Guelph, ON, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shauna L","family":"Blois","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Studies (Blois), Ontario Veterinary College, Guelph, ON, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7964-7442","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sandra L","family":"Lefebvre","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Banfield Pet Hospital, Vancouver, WA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mingyin","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Banfield Pet Hospital, Vancouver, WA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elizabeth M","family":"Lund","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Banfield Pet Hospital, Vancouver, WA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cate E","family":"Dewey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Population Medicine, Ontario Veterinary College, Guelph, ON, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.nephro.2015.03.003"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cvsm.2008.09.011"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/9781118785546.ch69"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","unstructured":"Osborne CA.
