Analysis shows that anemia influences cardiac function in dogs, suggesting potential myocardial injury.

Anemia severity significantly affects myocardial parameters in dogs with ehrlichia infections, altering cardiac function.
Severely anemic dogs exhibited notable reductions in hematocrit, hemoglobin, and platelet counts compared to controls.
Echocardiographic assessments revealed compensatory adaptations in cardiac structure among moderately anemic dogs.
Findings advocate for more advanced diagnostics to understand the progression of ehrlichiosis in dogs.

Ustaer et al. (2025) studied this question.
