Hyperthyroidism in cats can mask changes in renal function, including chronic kidney disease (CKD), because of hyperfiltration and muscle loss. Symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA) has been shown to increase earlier than creatinine in cats with renal dysfunction, and, unlike creatinine, SDMA is not impacted by lean muscle mass. The aim of this study was to describe the relationship between SDMA, creatinine, body weight and TT4 over time during treatment of hyperthyroidism. Cats were retrospectively identified from the US IDEXX Reference Laboratories database where TT4, SDMA and creatinine were measured on the same cat at multiple time points. A hyperthyroid treated group was identified (TT4 ≤ 4.7 μg/dL and decreased by a minimum of 2.5 μg/dL) ...
