Thoracic geometry changes during equine locomotion
Classic descriptions of rib motion during ventilation include three-dimensional movements that are tied to the locomotor pattern. It is still not clear how chest wall and diaphragmatic movements contribute to ventilation. The purpose of this paper was to evaluate how gait affects local thoracic geometry in horses. Hemispherical markers were placed on the skin over the ribs and spine to calculat...
متن کاملExperimental chronic uveitis. Ophthalmic signs following equine leptospirosis.
The present study was conducted as the first phase of an investigation of the pathogenesis of equine uveitis. Two groups of Shetland ponies were exposed to leptospires and subsequently proved to have been infected. Weekly ocular examinations and fundic photography were used to study the development of lesions and to establish their role in the genesis of equine chronic uveitis. Exacerbations du...

Leptospirosis is a bacterial zoonotic disease with worldwide distribution. The disease affects several domestic and wild animals. Leptospirosis has seasonal nature with high incidence in hot rainy season especially in tropical regions. The disease in horses has ocular and systemic manifestations. However, stillbirths and neonatal mortality due to this disease is also common. The ocular manifest...
متن کاملIntraocular pressure changes in equine athletes during endurance competitions.
OBJECTIVE To assess intraocular pressure (IOP) in conditioned equine athletes and document changes with exercise. A secondary objective was to assess associations between IOP and heart rate, as well as with other subjective physical parameters. SAMPLE POPULATION Horses were evaluated during 50 mile endurance ride competitions. Data were collected on 69 horses during five different competition...
متن کاملSerological evidence of bovine leptospirosis in Malawi.
Two hundred and seventy-five serum samples from cattle in Malawi were tested as a pilot survey for Leptospira antibody titres. Fifty-nine (21.4%) of the animals were positive for leptospirosis, while 35 (12.7%) animals reacted inconclusively. Titres to L. hardjo and L. pomona serovars were the most prevalent. Results are also discussed with reference to the areas where samples were collected.
