Evaluation of genetic and metabolic predispositions and nutritional risk factors for pasture-associated laminitis in ponies.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate genetic and metabolic predispositions and nutritional risk factors for development of pasture-associated laminitis in ponies. DESIGN Observational cohort study. ANIMALS 160 ponies. PROCEDURES A previous diagnosis of laminitis was used to differentiate 54 ponies (PL group) from 106 nonlaminitic ponies (NL group). Pedigree analysis was used to determine a mode of inher...
متن کاملEndocrinopathic Laminitis, Obesity-Associated Laminitis, and Pasture-Associated Laminitis
In a recent online survey, we asked equine practitioners to list the three most common causes of laminitis in horses seen within their practice. We expected veterinarians to list colitis, colic, and retained placenta as the primary causes of laminitis, but many respondents listed obesity, insulin resistance (IR), equine metabolic syndrome (EMS), pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID), and...
متن کاملLaminitis and the equine metabolic syndrome.
Although much has been written about laminitis in the context of its association with inflammatory processes, recognition is growing that most cases of laminitis examined by veterinarians in private practice are those associated with pasture grazing, obesity, and insulin resistance (IR). The term 'endocrinopathic laminitis' has been adopted to classify the instances of laminitis in which the or...
متن کاملNutritional epigenomics of metabolic syndrome: new perspective against the epidemic.
Human epidemiological studies and appropriately designed dietary interventions in animal models have provided considerable evidence to suggest that maternal nutritional imbalance and metabolic disturbances, during critical time windows of development, may have a persistent effect on the health of the offspring and may even be transmitted to the next generation. We now need to explain the mechan...
متن کاملPasture management to minimize the risk of equine laminitis.
The sugar, starch, and fructan content (collectively referred to as nonstructural carbohydrates [NSC]) of pasture plants is dependent on the environmental conditions under which they have grown. Pasture that is stressed by cold, drought, or lack of nutrients can be 2 to 3 times higher in NSC than pasture that grows quickly in warm weather and is adequately watered and fertilized. Horses at risk...
