Clinicopathologic variables associated with hypokalemia in lactating dairy cows with abomasal displacement or volvulus

To identify potential mechanisms for hypokalemia in dairy cows with left-displaced abomasum (LDA), right-displaced abomasum (RDA), or abomasal volvulus (AV).Retrospective analysis of clinicopathologic data from 2 convenience samples of cows.112 lactating dairy cows with AV (group 1); 1,332 lactating dairy cows (group 2) with LDA (n = 1,160) or RDA or AV (172).Data were analyzed via Spearman ρ and multivariate stepwise regression.78 of 112 (70%)...
