OCA14. Characteristics of the author's contributionThe author contributed to the preparation and scientific elaboration of a review article on uveodermatological syndrome in dogs. Her contribution consisted of searching for, selecting, critically evaluating, and synthesizing relevant scientific literature focused primarily on the ophthalmological manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of the disease. She also contributed to the formulation of scientific conclusions, the revision of the manuscript, and the approval of its final version.
OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.This paper presents a specialized review study focusing on uveodermatological syndrome in dogs, a rare immune-mediated disease with manifestations affecting the eyes and skin. The research process was based on a search for and critical evaluation of relevant literature in the PubMed, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases from November 2024 to January 2025. The analysis primarily included studies describing ocular manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and the course of the disease in dogs, while sources focused exclusively on dermatological issues were excluded. The research involved synthesizing knowledge regarding the presumed autoimmune and genetic etiology of the syndrome, its clinical presentation, histopathological diagnosis, and treatment options. The study particularly emphasizes the significance of granulomatous panuveitis, depigmentation of the skin and coat, as well as secondary complications such as cataracts, glaucoma, and retinal detachment. The thesis also includes an analysis of published case reports and therapeutic approaches, highlighting the need for early diagnosis, long-term immunosuppressive therapy, and regular ophthalmological monitoring of the patient. The result is a comprehensive and clinically oriented overview that makes current knowledge accessible to veterinarians, students, and researchers. The report also identifies areas requiring further research, particularly the elucidation of the disease’s immunopathogenesis, prognostic factors, and the development of more targeted therapeutic approaches.
Other data
OCA16. Annotation of the output in EnglishUveodermatological syndrome is an immune-mediated disease in dogs with a probable genetic predisposition, in which the immune system attacks the melanocytes of the skin and ocular structures. This article summarizes current knowledge regarding the etiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, histopathological findings, and treatment options. Special attention is given to granulomatous panuveitis, depigmentation of the skin and coat, secondary glaucoma, cataracts, and the risk of permanent vision loss. The paper emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and interdisciplinary collaboration between veterinary ophthalmologists and dermatologists.

OCA18. Characteristics of the output's impact on socio-economic practiceThis finding is significant for veterinary clinical practice because it highlights the severity and progressive nature of uveodermatological syndrome in dogs. It promotes the early recognition of a combination of ocular and skin symptoms, which can expedite diagnosis and the initiation of immunosuppressive therapy. Early intervention can reduce the risk of irreversible eye damage, secondary glaucoma, pain, and permanent blindness. The article also highlights the need for long-term patient monitoring, individualized treatment, and monitoring for adverse effects of corticosteroids and other immunosuppressants. Its practical significance also lies in promoting collaboration between veterinary ophthalmology, dermatology, and general clinical practice.
OCA19. Characteristics of the output and related activities' impact on the educational processThis publication expands on educational content in veterinary medicine, particularly in the fields of veterinary ophthalmology, dermatology, immunology, internal medicine, and histopathology. It can serve as study material for teaching uveitis, autoimmune diseases, the differential diagnosis of depigmenting lesions, and the principles of immunosuppressive therapy. For students and beginning veterinarians, it provides a practical foundation for linking clinical examination with laboratory and histopathological diagnostics. It is also useful for seminars, master’s theses, and doctoral dissertations, as a basis for case reports, and in planning further research focused on the pathogenesis, prognosis, and more targeted treatment of the syndrome.
