Wounds localized on the distal limbs in horses are difficulty healing. No studies have been conducted to evaluate homologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) horses. The aim of this study was effect upon applying autologous PRP, and PRP gel wound healing process wounds limb To a possible correlation between platelet count time, four skin 4 cm2 were surgically created dorsolateral aspect third metacarpus eight healthy adult Each randomly treated according established treatment groups (G): GI, with...
To determine the effects of 3 rations (low grain, fat, high grain) on plasma creatine kinase (CK) activity and lactate concentration in Thoroughbred horses with recurrent exertional rhabdomyolysis (RER).5 Thoroughbreds RER healthy (control horses).Rations were formulated to meet (low-grain fat rations) or exceed (high-grain ration) daily energy requirements. Each ration was fed a crossover design for weeks. Horses exercised treadmill Monday through Friday; maximum speed Friday 11 m/s (6%...
Polysaccharide storage myopathy (PSSM) is characterized by the accumulation of glycogen and an abnormal polysaccharide in skeletal muscle fibers Quarter Horse–related breeds. Glycogen disorders have been identified human beings other animal species that are due to single gene mutations causing deficiencies enzyme activities glycogenolytic or glycolytic pathways.1 Biochemical studies demonstrated horses with PSSM functional pathways.2 More recently, suggested be a novel defect glucose...
Abstract Objective To determine whether excessive glycogen accumulation in skeletal muscle of Quarter Horses with polysaccharide storage myopathy (PSSM) is a result enhanced cellular uptake glucose. Animals 6 horses PSSM and 10 healthy (control) horses. Procedure Intravenous glucose tolerance tests (IVGTT), oral (OGTT), modified insulin (MITT) were performed. Plasma concentrations measured blood samples collected before for up to 8 hours after or administration. Results Peak during IVGTT...
To develop a diagnostic test for recurrent exertional rhabdomyolysis (RER) in Thoroughbreds that relied on vitro contracture of muscle biopsy specimens and determine whether the inheritance pattern RER diagnosed basis this was consistent with an autosomal dominant trait.Clinical trial.8 adult horses 16 control development test; 23 foals RER.External intercostal from 24 were tested response to halothane caffeine, criteria positive result determined. These then applied results they had RER....
Summary Polysaccharide storage myopathy (PSSM) in Quarter Horses (QH) and QH crosses is a glycogen disorder which blood glucose clearance insulin sensitivity, following an i.v. or oral challenge, are enhanced. Exercise known also to enhance uptake into skeletal muscle many animal species. Therefore, the purpose of this study was compare effect exercise on PSSM control horses when carbohydrate meal (8 Mcal sweet feed) fed either 12 h fasting alone (NEX protocol) standard protocol (EX...
To determine the association between ultrasonographic (US) and anatomopathologic findings, an US examination was performed postmortem on fetlock associated structures of 37 equine forelimb specimens. All these specimens exhibited images suggestive lesions ultrasound examination. Subsequently, limbs were dissected underwent study. Ultrasonographic changes in size, shape, architecture, echogenicity ligaments, tendons, joint capsule, articular cartilage, bony surfaces metacarpophalangeal with findings.
Descreve-se um caso de pneumonia granulomatosa por Cryptococcus neoformans em eqüino, macho, Quarto Milha, 8 anos idade com história laminite crônica 2 anos. Na necropsia, havia múltiplos nódulos macios e gelatinosos distribuídos aleatoriamente nos pulmões. Histologicamente, observaram-se cavidades císticas preenchidas numerosas estruturas leveduriformes circundadas espesso halo claro reação inflamatória leve. Em seções coradas azul alciano PAS, observou-se densa cápsula mucinosa circundando...
O presente estudo teve por objetivo avaliar a capacidade de concentração plaquetária e sua correlação com os níveis do fator crescimento TGF-B1, presença leucócitos hemácias nos diferentes protocolos utilizados na obtenção plasma rico em plaquetas (PRP) equinos, através método manual. Dez sadios, idade média 7 anos (±2,39), pesando 500kg (±67,1) foram neste estudo. Os testados variaram velocidade no tempo nas duas centrifugações. As variáveis analisadas amostras PRP foram: plaquetas,...
The objective of this study was to describe the first report involving a case equine acute myonecrosis caused by C. novyi type A with an emphasis on clinical signs, pathological and bacteriological analysis, molecular identification microorganisms as key definitive diagnosis.
Com o objetivo de definir a prevalência alterações ósseas no tarso, foram examinados radiograficamente 77 potros da raça Crioula, com até 26 meses idade e relação das lesões parâmetros biométricos manejo. Os animais divididos em dois grupos por idade: G1, incluindo nove 18 (34/77); G2, 19 (43/77). também pelo tempo preparo para exposição morfológica GC, grupo controle (29/77), os sem exposição; GI, incentivo (48/77), médio 4,55 meses, separados sexo machos (46/77) fêmeas (31/77). dados...
O desequilíbrio dos cascos como fator causador de claudicação em cavalos atletas é bastante documentado na literatura e pode ser dividido geométrico, dinâmico natural. presente estudo verificou o equilíbrio geométrico nos 97 crioulos adultos, treinamento, 16 estabelecimentos, para determinar a incidência alterações cascos. Foram registradas nove medidas membros anteriores: ângulo da pinça, circunferência banda coronária, comprimento lateral medial talões quartos, largura ranilha. As...
O objetivo deste trabalho foi identificar as principais causas de claudicação em cavalos Crioulos treinamento para a prova do Freio Ouro e competições rédeas. Foram avaliados os registros clínicos 201 Crioulos, 5,6 2,1 anos idade, submetidos exame físico devido à presença ou histórico baixo rendimento atlético entre 2002 2009. A localizada nos membros torácicos pélvicos 47,1% (n=105) 52,9% (n=118), respectivamente. Nos machos, houve uma predominância (60,0%) nas fêmeas (57,1%). torácicos,...
São relatados a epidemiologia, os sinais clínicos e aspectos macro microscópicos de casos harpejamento ocorridos 2000 2005 em eqüinos oito propriedades rurais seis municípios do Rio Grande Sul. Pelo menos 10 foram afetados, com idades variando entre 1 13 anos (média 6,2 anos) 1-2 afetados por propriedade. Dentre fatores que podem ter influenciado o aparecimento da doença está incluída escassez forragem devido à seca. A presença planta Hypochaeris radicata, freqüentemente implicada como causa...
