This work was supported by the Centro di Ricerca di Chirurgia Comparata (CRCC), Università
degli Studi di Sassari and a contribution of the Fondazione Banco di Sardegna as well
as the Regione Autonoma della Sardegna. Some essential equipment was acquired through
unrestricted funds of the Section of Anesthesia in the Department of Clinical Studies-New
Bolton Center, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Pennsylvania. Lauren Duffee
received a travel grant from the Department of Clinical Studies-VHUP, School of Veterinary
Medicine, University of Pennsylvania. Prof. B. Driessen was awarded a competitive,
14-day all inclusive Visiting Professorship grant from the Central Administration
of the University of Sassari, Italy. The funder provided support in the form of salaries
for authors N.C., A.S., V.M., and G.M.C., but did not have any additional role in
the study design, data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation
of the manuscript. The specific roles of these authors are articulated in the ‘author
